You do make an interesting point anonymously. given the difference between a fashion show where the general public are sitting separate from the runway as is the media unless granted access to the back stage area where the designers is overseeing the presentation before the garment walks onto the runway an art opening is the place, the front lines so to speak where the maker has to be able to connect with the unknown public instantaneously, whoever the public may be. I will also point out that if the work hadn't been of interest to me I would not have had the conversion with the maker. The other works that interested me in one way or another I mentioned. Textile work is seldom considered in main stream media or the art press and textile history which is a deeper and broader field than the basics taught in programs and is an exciting field.Joe Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07030577606003203011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676469.post-52646466645129277262012-04-04T14:02:39.429-04:002012-04-04T14:02:39.429-04:00I would have like to have heard about the other ar...I would have like to have heard about the other artists in the Concordia exhibition instead of concentrating on one student who was obviously preoccupied during an General Public vernissage. Perhaps individual interviews with the artists would make more sense in a media related setting. Don't you think? <br />As a Fashion Designer myself, I never do interviews DURING a fashion show or exhibit. I always have a separate time frame for bloggers & media so I am prepared for their questions & can focus my attention on them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676469.post-29370459356756366092012-04-03T01:35:54.585-04:002012-04-03T01:35:54.585-04:00Joe

I cannot believe that a Concordia student did not know Eva Hesse's work. <br /><br />The rest of your article was also really interesting and gives a good flavour to what's up in Montreal. <br /><br />best wishesJudy Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00619951031502775381noreply@blogger.com
