Behind Beauty: A Panel Discussion

Originally aired on Monday, November 6th, 2006

In conjunction with the New York School of Visual Arts' Visual Arts Museum exhibition Still Missing: Beauty Absent Social Life, this panel discussion brings together a philosopher, a poet and two artists from the exhibition to consider the social and political implications of artistic practice that is concerned with beauty. This panel discusses how personal esthetics might relate to larger historical and social questions. What are the concerns that stand behind a beautiful painting? Perhaps not those we might expect. Recorded September 21, 2006 at the School of Visual Arts. Raphael Rubinstein moderates (75 minutes).

The Panel:

Richmond Burton, painter

Mónica de la Torre, poet and poetry editor of The Brooklyn Rail

Crispin Sartwell, philosopher and journalist

Amy Wilson, artist/writer, SVA faculty

Moderator Raphael Rubinstein, senior editor at Art in America, SVA faculty
