FROM THE MANAGING EDITOR

Christopher Howard is CAA managing editor.

With this July issue, CAA News returns to a digital format. Each issue will be posted as a PDF to the CAA website at the beginning of the month of publication, and an email notice will be sent to all individual and institutional members. The format of the newsletter has changed to better fit your Christopher Howard computer screen. It also looks great when printed, and all images are now in color. I wish to thank Edward Noriega, a CAA board member, for his dedicated service to the newsletter. Noriega not only designed the May issue, but also reformatted the design template to bring you our new look. As you see by the cover, CAA has begun preparations for the 2010 Annual Conference in Chicago. Registration prices have just been announced (see page 16), and we’re taking applications for a limited number of conference travel grants (pages 17–18). I’m also pleased to report that CAA has received three new grants—one from the Terra Foundation and two from the National Endowment for the Arts—that will help support several important programs, including the Distinguished Scholar Session at the upcoming conference (page 14 has more details). Please visit www.collegeart.org/news on a regular basis for articles on and links to issues you care about. Further, CAA will also continue using other electronic communications—Facebook, Twitter, email blasts, and more—to get important organizational information to you. JULY 2009 CAA NEWS 4

Art/Work: New Book FEATURES on Artists and Their Careers

Christopher Howard is CAA managing editor.

The lives of artists and art students have become increasingly professionalized, for better or worse, and the business of being an artist is often just that: a business. Preparing taxes, writing grant proposals, and revising résumés—an artist could spend as much time on these tasks as they do in their studio. Over the past decade, a cottage industry of professional-development programs and workshops has flourished in and outside the university, including those hosted by CAA, offering artists the kind of nuts-and-bolts information that was once passed by word-of-mouth but usually learned through hair-raising trial-and-error experiences. With this sea change in professionalism for artists comes a new book, Art/Work: Everything You Need to Know (and Do) As You Pursue Your Art Career (New York: Free Press, 2009), that addresses the growing need for knowing how to inventory your work, prepare a “standard package,” approach a gallery, set up an open studio, and more. The authors, Heather Darcy Bhandari and Jonathan Melber, have interviewed dozens of artists, curators, dealers, critics, and arts administrators for the project. Combined with their own experience—she’s a curator and director at Mixed Greens Gallery, and he practiced art-and- entertainment law while also working for Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts—they have compiled a compendium of incredibly useful information on nearly every aspect of being an artist apart from making work. “In the last decade, younger and younger artists have had to know these things a lot quicker,” Bhandari says. “Many artists we spoke to—such as Fred Tomaselli and Charles Long—talked about how they learned all this through experience. They made mistakes, they learned from those mistakes, and they moved on. Artists who teach sometimes pass on the information in graduate school.” Now with the book’s publication, “More people can have access to it than just the people in Charles Long’s class.” Art/Work doesn’t contain a recipe for gallery success but instead provides the reader with the right tools to make that happen. Bhandari says, “There are different options for artists now, more than there were in the past,” so the book also offers advice about pursuing not 5 CAA NEWS JULY 2009 FEATURES

only mainstream success through commer- cial galleries but also achievement through other avenues, whether that’s working with nonprofit and alternative art spaces, selling work directly from your studio, or creating your own community through do-it-yourself activities. One unique aspect of the book is the quotes in the margin—from high-profile artists and well-known professionals who’ve been around the block. Shamim Momin from the Whitney Museum and Peter Eleey of the Walker Art Center talk about how they meet new artists and visit their studios, and Seattle Kammy Roulner, detail of I cut down my artist statement to just gallerist James Harris underscores the impor- 175 pages, 2008, ink on paper, 11 x 8 1/2 in. (artwork © Kammy Roulner; photograph provided by Kammy Roulner and Mixed tance artists’ websites have when he looks for Greens) new work to show. In the main body text, Bhandari and Melber offer good ideas for artists—even for those who have been exhibiting for years—such as getting together with other artists who live outside New York to set up a “studio” in that city to store and show work to curators and gallerists. They also recommend registering the copyright of a body of work all at once instead of individually to stretch the amount of art you can catalogue for the $35 online fee. The readership for Art/Work goes beyond artists. Emerging curators, along with established curators who work with living artists, would do well to read it, as would art dealers and workers at nonprofit spaces or organizations. Established museum professionals might benefit from it too, even if they’re just reminded what it’s like on the up-and-coming side. Navigating the vast amount of v material in Art/Work is crucial, and the “Some of the book is about book has been structured thoughtfully. what the unwritten rules and Melber says, “It’s written conceptually, starting from the self, to the studio, to customs are. Some of it is about the outside world, etc. But depending on where there aren’t rules and where an artist is in his or her career, the customs, where there’s space chapters are self-contained. If an artist is having a show, then go straight to that and flexibility.” part for advice and guidance. Or if a studio visit is pending, reread that chapter.” The amount of information, though, is tremendous, even daunting. “It’s not a novel, that’s for sure, ” Bhandari says. “We don’t expect anyone to do every single thing that’s in the book, or read it cover to cover, but instead to skim the chapters > JULY 2009 CAA NEWS 6

and go back to the parts that they feel are important.” Art/Work is noteworthy for having just as many don’ts as

FEATURES it has dos. The authors wish to steer artists clear from blunders that irk many art professionals—impersonal mass emails, for one. (The book says, “The idea is to grow your list organically, starting with friends and family and slowly expanding as you meet more people.”) Also, it’s always bad form to bring your work, or images of your work, unsolicited to galleries. At her gallery Bhandari notes, “It happens at least once a day.” That’s why she’s included a chapter called “Rejection: It’s Not You, It’s Them.” She also notes that artists who carelessly package their work for shipping reflects badly on them. “Artists forget they need to pack their art well. They need to treat it well after it’s made. A lot of the curators and gallerists we interviewed talked Heather Darcy Bhandari, coauthor of Art/Work (photograph by Coke Wisdom about this being their one big pet peeve.” About eighteen O’Neal) pages, with detailed illustrations, are dedicated to packing, shipping, and installing all kinds of work. Art/Work is full of helpful suggestions, especially those dealing with paperwork and legal issues. While researching the book, Bhandari and Melber asked gallerists for their consignment forms, invoices, and contracts. They compiled everything together. “Some galleries and artists were very concerned with shipping, for example,” Bhandari says. “Others had been burned in the past by certain things. We tried to create a comprehensive consignment form that included all the different things you could think about, but we’re not necessarily saying you need to include every single one of them on your form. As an artist you need to pick and choose which topics are most important to you or actually apply to your work.” Nearly all galleries use consignment forms for artists, but sometimes, for example, an artist participates in a short-term exhibition that a friend organizes in a temporary space. “Even though it feels weird to have something written down,” Melber says, “there should be some paper trail, and it’s okay if it’s just an email.” He continues, “Most of the stories that I’ve heard over the years are of an artist who didn’t think about that in advance. Something happens during the show, and then after they’re upset, because their piece was damaged and the person who put together the show—even if it was a friend—doesn’t feel responsible for it. Talk about it in advance. If there’s no problem, there’s no problem. If there is a problem, it’s a different problem than what would have been without documentation. Art/Work contains a few examples each of inventory lists, invoices, loan agreements, and public-art contracts. Melber says, “There are other books out there that are good, and that cover some of these issues, but the samples that are available are ones that I understand because I went to law school. An artist would have trouble with some of the provisions because 7 CAA NEWS JULY 2009 FEATURES

the form or contract isn’t written in a most user-friendly way.” The book’s examples of contracts thankfully lack stilted legalese: “No heretofore’s, none of that,” Bhandari laughs. A crucial role the book plays is empowering artists, especially in the gallery world. Bhandari says, “Many artists don’t necessarily stand up for themselves because of the power dynamic, or they’re afraid to ask for certain things because they don’t want to be a pain.” Artists, though, “need to remember they have power also. Many still think the gallery is choosing them, and that the gallery has more power than you do, when in actuality you’re choosing the gallery as well. The gallery is nothing without artwork, which is what you make.” Melber adds, “Some of the book is about what the Jonathan Melber, coauthor of Art/Work (photograph by Coke Wisdom O’Neal) unwritten rules and customs are. Some of it is about where there aren’t rules and customs, where there’s space and flexibility. It’s natural for someone who doesn’t necessarily know, or it’s their first time in the situation, to assume there’s a right way that things are done and not know what it is, when in fact there is a process. We’re demystifying the areas where you totally can’t go wrong unless you’re second guessing yourself.”

FEATURES Reductions Like most universities, art museums, and learned societies, CAA has been significantly affected by the global economic downturn. The Board of Directors made difficult decisions at its May 2009 meeting that nevertheless will allow CAA to maintain the high quality of member services and programming. Strategic reductions and other measures have been instituted throughout the association to balance the budget and keep core programs, publications, and services in operation. With this careful financial planning, CAA remains dedicated to support- ing members and the visual-arts community at large through our advocacy, career services, publications, and conference.

Annual Conference The 2010 Annual Conference in Chicago will commence on Wednesday evening, February 10, with Convocation and the Gala Reception. All 120 planned sessions will be presented over the following three days, Thursday, February 11 to Saturday, February 13, with the addition of extended evening hours. No sessions will take place on Wednesday.

Publications Beginning July 2009, CAA News will only be distributed online as a PDF in a new reader- friendly design. This allows us to save printing and mailing costs and to help preserve coverage of core programs and publications. CAA’s website, www.collegeart.org, will become the pri- mary hub of up-to-date information on the organization. CAA’s longtime support of the journals is absolutely central to the mission, and the association is fully committed to maintaining them now and in the future. The Art Bulletin and Art Journal will continue to be published. Illustrations, however, will be limited to black and white for 2009–10, except where editorial and budget decisions may allow the insertion of color. caa.reviews will be unchanged, with new book reviews, exhibition reviews, and conference and symposia reports published regularly. While the CAA Board of Directors has determined the budget restrictions necessary for this part of the association, the editors-in-chief will work closely with staff and editorial boards to make sure that any further reductions are implemented with a strict attention to quality consistent with the identity and mission of the journals.

Grants and Fellowships Two programs in CAA’s grant-making arm will be suspended for 2009–10: the Professional Development Fellowship Program for graduate students and the Millard Meiss Publication Fund. However, the Annual Conference Travel Grants and the Wyeth Foundation for American Art Publication Grant will both continue, and the CAA Annual Exhibitions, also funded by a grant, will take place at the Chicago and New York conferences. 9 CAA NEWS JULY 2009 FEATURES 2009 Member Survey Results As part of information-gathering pursuant to the preparation of CAA’s 2010–2015 Strategic Plan, a 2009 member survey was developed, coordinated, and carried out by a team under the leadership of Elizabeth Knapp, vice president in the Research Division of the marketing firm Leo Burnett Worldwide. The survey sought to determine member preferences, awareness of CAA publications and programs, and motivations for joining and renewing membership. In total, 1,451 CAA members responded to the online survey, a response rate of 11 percent (which is within an acceptable range for statistical analysis). The final sample was then weighted to accurately reflect the total CAA membership based on membership type. The results are an enlightening view into CAA members’ views and opinions, revealing important strengths but also giving direction to how the organization can use the next strategic plan to improve its programs and services. Demographically speaking, CAA members are more likely to be female (70 percent), within the age range of 35–49 (34 percent), Caucasian (87 percent), and in academic settings (73 percent), and to have ten years or more of professional experience (48 percent). The top three reasons individuals gave for joining CAA and renewing their memberships were for job postings (69 percent), networking (54 percent), and debate in the visual arts (50 percent). CAA is perceived as most relevant to art historians (78 percent agree). From artist members, enthusiasm for ARTspace at the Annual Conference was one of the higher-ranking areas of interest (61 percent). CAA is viewed as a well-known organization among peers (75 percent agree) and a well-run organization (51 percent agree). Members who responded to the question about CAA’s roles believe the most important are advocacy for artists, art historians, and university art museums (24 percent), a conference provider (21 percent), Members who responded to and a leader of creative and intel- the question about CAA’s roles lectual discourse (17 percent).

career development (62 percent), an opportunity for intellectual exchange about the visual arts (58 percent), and relevant to professional development (53 percent). At the conference, members mostly likely attend sessions (76 percent), the Book and Trade Fair (65 percent), and, FEATURES as noted above, ARTspace (61 percent). The most popular conference topics are criticism and theory (33 percent) and contemporary art history (31 percent). The most popular publication topics for the future are curriculum development for teaching studio and art-history courses; legal and copyright issues in publishing; career-development strategies; and standards and guidelines in the visual arts in academia. Members agree that digital publications are valuable because they can be searched online (76 percent), are envi- ronmentally friendly (71 percent), can expand readership and distribution (59 percent), and can include dynamic content (56 percent). Members are undecided on the future of digital publications, but 49 percent of respondents do not favor online, non–peer reviewed publications. CAA continues to advocate on issues of importance to members and to the visual arts. Among these, members feel that full-time vs. adjunct status is most important (50 percent), fol- lowed by intellectual-property issues (38 percent) and salary equity (39 percent). In efforts to increase its visibility and recognition for the programs and services it provides, CAA is eager to know how members react to or view its name. While some members felt that the name “College Art Association” or “CAA” is not descriptive of what the organization does, or that it does not fit the mission, 65 percent believe that the name is understood in the field of visual arts. Name recognition and identity will be assessed as part of CAA’s communications activities in the strategic plan. Other directions gathered from this survey that will be addressed in the strategic plan are to: 1) increase programming and publications for artists; 2) attract more young professionals; 3) increase the diversity of members; 4) increase career-development sessions at the conference; 5) increase interactive communications; 6) develop practical peer-reviewed publications; and 7) continue working on advocacy issues, particularly related to adjunct faculty. CAA thanks its members for participating in this recent survey. Comments and responses have been extremely helpful and are being used to guide changes and improvements in the organization’s services. 11 CAA NEWS JULY 2009 FEATURES Chair a Session at the 2011 Annual Conference in New York CAA holds its centennial Annual Conference in New York from Wednesday, February 9, to Saturday, February 12, 2011. The Annual Conference Committee invites session proposals that cover the breadth of current thought and research in art, art and architectural history, theory and criticism, pedagogical issues, museum and curatorial practice, conservation, and developments in technology.

General Proposal Information The process of fashioning the conference pro- The Brooklyn Museum in New York (photograph by Ruby gram is a delicate balancing act. The 2011 Washington/ program is shaped by four broad submission categories: Historical Studies, Contemporary Issues/Studio Art, Educational and Professional Practices, and Open Forms. Also included in the mix are sessions by CAA affiliated societies and CAA committees. For balance and programmatic equity, open sessions, which have a broad, inclusive topic or theme, are also presented. Most program sessions, however, are drawn from submissions by individual members; the committee greatly depends on the participation of the CAA membership in forming the conference. The Annual Conference Committee welcomes session proposals that include the work of established artists and scholars, along with that of younger scholars, emerging and midcareer artists, and graduate students. Particularly welcome are those sessions that highlight interdisciplinary work. Artists are especially encouraged to propose sessions appropriate to dialogue and information exchange relevant to artists. The Annual Conference Committee considers proposals from individual CAA members only. Once selected, session chairs must remain current members through 2011. No one may chair a session more than once in a three-year period. (That is, individuals who chaired sessions in 2009 or 2010 may not chair a session in 2011.) Sessions may bring together scholars and participants in a wide range of fields, including but not limited to: anthropology, history, economics, philosophy, religion, literary theory, and new media. In addition, the committee seeks topics that have not been addressed in recent conferences or areas that have traditionally been under- represented. Proposals need not conform to traditional panel formats; indeed, experimentation is highly desirable. To this end, CAA presents Open Forms, a session category that encourages the submission of experimental and nontraditional formats (e.g., roundtables, performances, forums, > JULY 2009 CAA NEWS 12

conversations, multimedia presentations, and workshops). Open Forms sessions may be preformed, with participants cho- FEATURES sen in advance by session chairs. These sessions require advance planning by the session chair; apply only if you have the time required to attend to such tasks. Sessions selected by the Annual Conference Committee for the 2011 conference are considered regular program sessions; that is, they are 2½-hours long, are scheduled during the eight regular program time slots during the four days of the conference, and require a conference badge for admission. With the exception of the Open Forms category, CAA session proposals may not be submitted as preformed panels with a list of speakers. Proposals for papers for the New York conference are solicited through the 2011 Call for Participation, published in February 2010. Each CAA affiliated society and CAA committee may submit one proposal that The entrance lobby of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York follows the guidelines outlined above. A let- (photograph by Brooks Walter) ter of support from the society or committee must accompany the submission. The Annual Conference Committee considers it, along with the other submissions, on the basis of merit.

Session Categories Below are descriptions of the four general submission categories. Historical Studies: This category broadly embraces all art-historical proposals up to the third quarter of the twentieth century. Contemporary Issues/Studio Art: This category is intended for studio-art proposals, as well as those concerned with contemporary art and theory, criticism, and visual culture. Educational and Professional Practices: This category pertains to session proposals that develop along more practical lines and address the educational and professional concerns of CAA members as teachers, practicing artists and critics, or museum curators. Open Forms: This category encourages experimental and alternative formats that tran- scend the traditional panel, with presentations whose content extends to serve the areas of contemporary issues, studio art, historical studies, and educational and professional practices. 13 CAA NEWS JULY 2009 FEATURES

Proposal Submission Guidelines All session proposals are completed and submitted online; paper forms and postal mailings are not accepted. To set up an account, please email Lauren Stark, CAA manager of programs, who will register your email address and provide you with a password.

If you are not submitting an application for a sponsored session, please skip this step • Your CV and, if applicable, the CV of your cochair; no more than two pages in length each, uploaded as a PDF or Word file The committee makes its selection solely on the basis of merit. Where proposals overlap, CAA reserves the right to select the most considered version or, in some cases, to suggest a fusion of two or more versions from among the proposals submitted. The submission process must be completed online. Questions? Please contact Lauren Stark, CAA manager of programs, at [email protected]. Deadline: September 1, 2009; no late applications are accepted.
