Description: Complete video at: http://fora.tv/fora/showthread.php?t=501 Lawrence Rinder, former Curator of Contemporary Art at the Whitney Museum, challenges our Western conceptions of art by contrasting them with the art sense of a very different culture, the Maisin tribe of Papua New Guinea. ----- Lawrence Rinder discusses "Art Life: Selected Writing 1991--2005." "Art Life" brings together for the first time in a single publication many of the important essays on contemporary art written over the past 15 years by Rinder, one of America's most influential curators. This significant publication, which combines intellectual rigor with accessible prose, is an exciting and welcome reminder, especially in today's market-driven art world, that contemporary art can and should be experienced as a natural part of all of our lives - Codys Dean of Graduate Studies at California College of the Arts, Lawrence Rinder was previously Anne and Joel Ehrenkranz Curator of Contemporary Art at the Whitney Museum of American Art, where he organized exhibitions including The American Effect, BitSteams, the 2002 Biennial, and Tim Hawkinson. Prior to his work at the Whitney, Rinder was founding director of the CCA Wattis Institute for Contemporary Arts and assistant director and curator for twentieth-century art at the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive. His art criticism has been published in Flash Art, Artforum, Nest, The Village Voice, Fillip, and Parkett.
