Stanley smART Talks: The Art of Process—Exploration, Expression, and Meaning Making through Creative Acts
In this smART talk, we’ll look at the history of process art from its roots in various spiritual practices, philosophy, and psychological research that inspired modern artists, to abstract expressionism, performance, and land-based art.
We’ll explore artists from the Stanley’s collection and beyond whose process-driven work transcends the boundaries of the body, time, setting, and traditional mediums and forms to create spaces for witnessing pure human expression.
Finally, we will discuss the educational potential of open-ended creative exploration, and the benefits of integrating a philosophy of process into our daily lives.
