The Desert Arts Preview is
Burning Man’s very
popular annual artist lecture series, where you are given a sneak
preview of some of the many notable art projects in progress right
now for Burning Man 2011. You hear directly from artists who are
creating spectacular works of art, often in highly collaborative
ways. Some have been doing work on the playa many years and will
be sharing humorous war stories associated with creating art under
extreme conditions.
Once again the Black Rock Arts Foundation was invited to speak. Tomas McCabe, our Executive Director spoke about both our Civic Arts Program and ScrapEden Program and Josie Schmike, our Program and Development Assistant, spoke about the Grants to Artists Program. I loved it and hope you did too.
