TalkingPoint: Artist David Schutter

4833 Conference Room
Monday, January 22
6pm

TalkingPoint artist, David Schutter, is University of Chicago Visiting Artist and Lecturer in the Visual Arts Department.

He earned an undergraduate degree from The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and an MFA from The University of Chicago. His most recent one person exhibition was engaged with the 17th Century Dutch collection of the Gemäldegalerie, Berlin. David Schutter is interested in questions of the painting process and memory, phenomenological experience and reproduction. His paintings are conceptual in that they question the existence of essences, as a philosophical question; and they are investigations into the visual and tactile qualities of paint, as an endeavor to speak.

As a starting point for the discussion, David asks, “Why gray?”
