AAH 460 Senior Seminar 2026 Pop-up Show: "Field Guides to Art"
The idea for this show stems from the website “Learning to Love You More”. http://www.learningtoloveyoumore.com/hello/index.php
From the website:
Learning to Love You More is both a web site and series of non-web presentations comprised of work made by the general public in response to assignments given by artists Miranda July and Harrell Fletcher.
Participants accepted an assignment, completed it by following the simple but specific instructions, sent in the required report (photograph, text, video, etc), and their work got posted on-line. Like a recipe, meditation practice, or familiar song, the prescriptive nature of these assignments was intended to guide people towards their own experience.
For this pop-up exhibition, students were randomly assigned into groups of two or three. Each group established their own loose parameters or prompts for what they would do, under the general guise of “create a poster/flier/field guide of ______”. Each artist created their own work with that simple direction. They could use any media for this project.
All of the works were created on the backs of recycled Gallery exhibition statements from previous years.
