Anyone intersted in making a video for HS volleyball team?

kmanning — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 12:49:29 GMT

I coach girls volleyball at Hinsdale South H.S. and my head coach normally has a DVD made for her varsity team. The guy we have been going to the past few years is starting to charge more than she is interested in paying...so we are in the process of looking for someone new to come to home matches (I think we only have 2 this year), and possibly another game or two if needed. This is obviously in the suburbs...but if anyone is interested or knows of someone who may be interested in quoting ...

Although the Art Open focuses on professional artists with a record of exhibiting, a small number of slots for emerging and student artists are provided through the support of the CAC. The Chicago Art Open accepts entries on an open basis and features the work of approximately 300 ...

Art Content Test

Buttrflyspirit22 — Sun, 09 Mar 2008 22:22:12 GMT

For anyone taking the Visual Arts Content Test, DePaul doesn't have a study guide for it. I just took the test. If you are taking it soon, most of it is common sense and things you've discussed during critiques in art classes; such as: Why did the artist choose to use drastic contrast in the painting? There are some questions on artist intent, classroom practices, techniques, identifying the culture a particular sculpture came from (I really didn't like these ones), and some graphic ...

Piazza exhibit at COD

jduignan — Sat, 08 Mar 2008 03:15:55 GMT

The work of Michael Piazza is at Gahlberg Gallery at the College of Dupage until April 19, 2008. This may be the only time to see the actual work of Michael Piazza including very early works. The essay I wrote for the catalogue was altered prior to publication and has changed the vision of the piece which is distressing. That is not what the exhibit is about and I encourage everyone to check it out.
