our tutors are excellent, but fine art is painting, printmaking, 3D sculpture/installation and photography at our uni. If I wanted new media in depth i would have had to do a degree in new media. But uni's for this are far from where i live. i am a mature student so i choose to travel daily, only 35 mins.
The photography tutor is fine with computer art, a photoshop whizz.
But finding out for yourself is fun, its only my dissertation, most of my other art is painting and etching/aquatinting.
Sarah Lucas private view was great this evening. The exhibition was about British culture...........Pubs and smoking...........and how it kills ya.............mortality.
there was a small pub in the exhibition and the gallery curator was serving beer to the visitors. there was also a wall of full gin bottles with optics, and you were encouraged to help yourself.
no one bothered to question "is it art".........a great party ensued !! lol.
i also got to speak with tracy emin

o0o,
As far as the average citizen project, I forgot to mention that in the website, there is supposed to be a place where you can email this person (the average citizen) and share your opinions and views with her. The outcome being that you will influence someone who will influence all of the media outlets which in turn influence the masses.
However, I think that feature is not yet implemented on the site. At least it wasn't last time I visited. But it is to be an integral part of the project.Man, that's just weird... it's like a snake eating its own tail and pooping it out...
