QUINT: Three Decades of Contemporary Art
August 15 - December 31, 2009
California Center for the Arts, Escondido Museum, 340 N. Escondido Blvd., Escondido, CA 92025
The California Center for the Arts, Escondido Museum is pleased to present Quint: Three Decades of Contemporary Art. The exhibition, based on the program of one of San Diego County's most influential galleries, will open on August 15th and continue through December 31st, 2009. Works in the exhibition, the majority of which have been borrowed from Southern California museums and private collections, present an extraordinary survey of the range of regional, national, and international artists supported and promoted by Quint Gallery over nearly thirty years.
Since opening his first gallery in La Jolla in 1981, Mark Quint adopted a unique, almost nomadic approach to the business of contemporary art. Rather than establishing itself in a permanent location and then expanding over time, Quint Gallery would more often adapt its spaces and program according to the needs of the artists it was interested in presenting. From formal gallery and raw open spaces in downtown San Diego, to large industrial workspaces for artists near Miramar Naval Air Base, to unexpected (and often elegant) spaces secluded in back alleys in Hillcrest or La Jolla, Quint Gallery has maintained the flexibility to represent artists employing a wide variety of practices, mediums, and formats.

The International Convention for Puredata (Pd) is a periodic event that started in 2004 and is the most important event of the community of developers and enthusiasts of Pd. The Pd is a programming language itself to the development of interactive applications, allowing the manipulation of data flow in real-time. As a free open source software, the developer community is vast and independent, and is characterized by having a profile of researchers, developers and designers with a strong interaction and internal productivity. There are several projects that use Pd in the area of robotics, psychoacoustic, new physical interfaces and open-hardware, artificial intelligence and pattern recognition signal, artistic and commercial projects, among others. In the Brazilian edition, we add more and improve the Brazilian community of developers, which has grown over the past two years in the international scene.

Yet the Telluride family trusts that a unique experience will unfold.

The University of California's Institute for Research in the Arts (UCIRA) supports UC artists dedicated to innovative approaches to form and content in the performing, media, and visual arts.
The UCIRA provides grants to arts faculty and students for projects with the potential for significant artistic and cultural impact. UCIRA supports projects that are innovative, experimental, and risk-taking in their approach to form and/or content. These may include exhibitions, performances, symposia, outreach efforts, and projects that are multidisciplinary in approach. As artistic endeavors of the highest professional caliber, UCIRA projects frequently reach audiences outside the university and involve artists and scholars from around the world. As the only state-wide organization representing the arts on the nine campuses of the UC system, UCIRA also provides information and advocacy for university-based arts education and research.

Transborder California Digital Mapping Project Workshop - May 27 '09 - UC San Diego - Atkinson Hall
Submitted by yolietorres on Tue, 05/12/2009 - 12:49pm. Alumni_Event | Announcement | Events | LectureMapping Project 2009-2012
Transborder California Digital Mapping Project
Workshop May 27 2009, 10:30am - 6pm
Atkinson Hall, Rm 4004 / Cal(it)2, UC San Diego, 9500 Gilman Dr., La Jolla, California 92093
This collaborative initiative gathers researchers in the humanities, arts, social sciences, and computer engineering to share diverse research of the Transborder California region. New technologies in digital communication will be harnessed to create a shared platform to share divergent data, perspectives, epistemologies, and agendas with the purpose of generating a dynamic layered mapping of the region across time and space.
The scope of Transborder California is the historical and geographic region that encompasses the bordered region that in 1848 divided Alta California and Baja California between the nation-states of the United States and Mexico. The project acknowledges the contours of administrative geography and political rule but is not driven by the political calculus of the administrative geography of the Spanish Empire, Mexico, or the United States or subsidiary regional governments of San Diego County, Imperial County and Baja Norte. However, the research inquiry attends to the intensifying traffic, circulation, and barriers over the 160 years.
