Talk | New Art School Modality: Making New Monuments


Members of the pedagogical community present sketches and articulations of works in progress created through the course. The MCA was the 2023–24 inaugural site for the New Art School Modality. About the School The New Art School Modality explores and brings to life new forms of teaching, learning, art production, and impact. The school is grounded in an ethos of collaboration, experimentation, and improvisation. The New Art School Modality offers a revised version of the art school model, methods, and procedures. It is conceived as a different take on, or an alternative approach to, art school education, one that has fewer guard rails and institutional protocols. There’s intentionally less handholding and the apparatus is reduced, all of this as a nod to prior historical moments when making art and being an artist were less reliant on costly infrastructures. Courses are hybrid, online and in-person. Unlike place-based art schools, it is decentralized, taking up different “perches.”
