Idea Bar at SOME TIMES with Meghan Gordon

Looks like USC Roski dean Erica Muhl may be "disrupting" herself out of a job. Someone should have told her that if you wanted to disrupt the current paradigm of arts education it can only mean one thing: the move away from artists being educated from within the institution and taking their education into their own hands. The Roski 7 understood this when they left, showing Muhl what true disruption looks like. We could have told her all this, but hey, she didn't hire us!

USC Roski MFAs Call for Dean's Resignation - artnet News Check out a petition created by the 2015 MFA class at USC Roski calling for the resignation of controversial dean Erica Muhl.

We're horrified and dismayed to find out how USC has treated these artist/students, but we're also inspired by their courage to stand up to an administration that clearly values them so little. As a show of solidarity, CAC would like to offer our services free of charge to these artists as they go it on their own. Does anyone know any of these artists and how we can get in touch with them?

SOME TIMES presents Idea Bar with Conceptual Art Consultants

For the 2015 Lux After Dark Benefit Gala, some times, a performative project space in the shape of a bar operated by artist Meghan Gordon, will host Conceptual Art Consultants, a consulting firm for artists and creative professionals, to create a collaborative performance called Idea Bar. The architectural space of the bar will be converted into a pay-per-thought think tank serving ideas on cocktail napkins, personal creative consultations, and free signature some times cocktails. Half of all proceeds will be donated to the Lux Art Institute Educational Scholarship Fund.

It's been a crazy week getting ready for our event at Lux Art Institute on Saturday, where we're hosting an Idea Bar with SOME TIMES! Attendees will be able to purchase original ideas thought up by Eric, Allison, and Meghan for just $5, drawn on one of these snazzy CAC cocktail napkins.

We just brainstormed 125 ideas with Meghan Gordon to sell at our idea bar at Lux After Dark on Saturday. It only took us 10 hours. Thanks to SOME TIMES, we have a space to present this performance!

Announcement: Conceptual Art Consultants will be at CalArts on Thursday, January 22nd and will be doing studio visits. Contact us here to schedule a visit or email us at [email protected].
