San José State University MFA Catalogue 2023-2024

Overview

At the beginning of their final year at San José State, MFA students in art practice join with MA students in art history to negotiate that strange territory between theoria (thinking), poiesis (making), and praxis (doing). Both groups of students find their own voices through one another’s practices. The essays within these catalogs reflect this temporally determined pairing: the graduate students in art history write about the work of the fine arts students. The visual artists and art historians come together and produce text, image, and object on their own terms; without assignment. Every year in the Spring, the results of this collaborative endeavor result in the publication of the Lift Off catalogue.
