Art + Social Practice Conversations
These books collect conversations facilitated by graduating students in the Art + Social Practice MFA Program. All of the MFA students conduct interviews related to the topic of art and social practice each academic term during the three years of the program. The interviews are posted online as part of Social Forms of Art (SoFA) Journal, and then compiled together as part of this book series. Interviews are a natural form of collaborative thinking and writing, and have been an important form used in many texts about or informing the field of socially engaged art. The books are published by KSMoCA (Dr Martin Luther King Jr School Museum of Contemporary Art) in collaboration with the Art and Social Practice MFA Program at Portland State University and designed by A+D Projects. They are available to buy on Amazon and to download as free PDFs from the KSMoCA website.
