Event: PSU MFA Monday Night Lecture Series – Tom Marioni
November 8, 2010 Starts: 7:30pm Ends: 8:30pm
November 8, Tom Marioni
For over forty years Tom Marioni has been experimenting at the boundaries of art. His first art action—One Second Sculpture (1969) in which he released a coiled metal tape measure into the air and allowed it to fall to the ground—encapsulated Marioni’s desire to eradicate the distinctions between sculpture, music, drawing, and performance by embodying all of the genres at once. A key figure in the invention of Conceptual Art in the 1960s, Marioni’s identity as artist, writer, and curator also defies categorization.
