ATC Video Now Online: Caroline Woolard

Caroline Woolard presented a thought-provoking look at the nature of art and art education in the United States and much of the world. Her presentation explored the evolution of the arts education industry, and the complex ways in which artists navigate the capitalistic system of the art trade, the needs of self-expression, and the tough economic realities that have always faced artists. Woolard showed that more and more aspiring artists are attending increasingly expensive art institutions, creating a feeder system which has changed the infrastructure and underpinnings of the art world.
