“The gesture was created by MFAs and faculty and in dialogue with the VIS Arts department. This was an action as an internal reflection on the work we within the department are actively committed to working harder on the work reminds us, as we come to work and go in and out of the visual arts department, of the work we have to do.
We welcome the opportunity to facilitate a more public gesture on Library Walk or at the main entrances to campus, as implied by the support shown today by UCSD administration.

Open Studios Artists

This is our opportunity to share with you and the San Diego community our research, scholarship, and artistic practices. Open Studios will feature over 40 MFA & PhD artists’ open studios, exhibitions, screenings, and publications produced in the Department of Visual Arts. The artists will be present in their studios throughout the afternoon and excited to talk about and share their work with you.

The winner of the 2020 David Antin Prize will be announced at 3 p.m., kicking off the Open Studios. This annual prize was started to support a third-year MFA Visual Arts student who reflects David Antin’s focus on interdisciplinary work and the use of multiple mediums. The awardee has shown originality and creativity in work as an artist or writer in the field of art criticism. The prize comes with a $1,000 award.

RIP Sam Coronado

I am sad to say that Sam Coronado passed away November 11th. I had the honor of working with Sam and the great staff from the Serie Project while on a short residency in May of this year. Sam was an accomplished artist and tireless promoter of the arts. He was the founder of the Serie Project and Coronado Studio, co-founder of Mexic-Arte Museum, and a contributor to many other organizations and worked closely with many artists.
