PREP WORK FOR FACULTY CRIT

Here are a few things to consider to have the most professional presentation for critique:

1. Most professional possible presentation for faculty critique - we can ask Sarah for pedestals to use during critique. Cody and Kate both of your works may benefit from a pedestal presentation rather than putting the work on one of those dirty tables in the drawing studio. If you use pedestals, they may need to be touched up, this could be done Tuesday afternoon.

2. Kate, it might be good to do a dry run on the wall display of your weapons during critique. This would mean buying L nails or pins or some form of hanging device to install the weapons on to a wall of the drawing studio and see what they look like on display. You may want pedestal for any bombs or grenades...

3. Anna, are your paintings ready for hanging? If not please prepare them for wall hanging with wire. It's best to not just use a couple nails and put them up, but rather to prepare them as they would be professionally hung in a gallery. They need to be viewed on the wall, not on the easels.

4. Lauren, I have the same request for you, will you prepare the prints that you present for wall hanging. Perhaps you can leave a margin along the top and the bottom to use large paper lips as hanging devices or if you already know how they will be hung in the gallery can you do the same for the crit.

5. Same for Nadia, please prepare prints for best way to display.

6. Lastly, I didn't inspect how clean the walls in the studio are, it may be necessary to touch them up, if so we should do so during our regular meeting time. I'll see if paint is available, I'm not back on campus until Tuesday, can someone please take a look at the walls, particularly the central areas that will be used for display.
