Week 4: Observation 1
Date: 09/14/2011
Context: In class
Activity: Listening to the MCP presentation
Observation: While listening to Paula and Heidi talk about the MCP, I could not help but think about the similarites and difference Mart has to Marfa, Texas. Marfa is a small town in West Texas but over the past decades, a thriving art community has come to reside there, including the famous Chinati Foundation by Donald Judd. I wonder what lessons Mart could learn from Marfa about recruiting and retaining artists across the world.
