It seems Skidmore’s own Kara Walker has found their way to the campus walls. Sometime this afternoon someone installed these silhouette fabric cut-outs around campus. We’ve got a few more pictures after the jump but if you know anything we’d love to hear from you in the comments.

TASKparty

Wednesday, November 12th, 2008

If you have eyes (obvi you do, this is the internet lol) you’ve probably already seen those pretty TASK posters around campus. Intrigued?

“TASK is a community-based improvisational event, a creative outlet for all participants, an open ended social experiment, a party, and the brainchild of world-renowned artist Oliver Herring. It is an art event generated by a pool of tasks, written by participants and made possible by a variety of props. When a task is completed, the participant writes a new task and the event builds from then on.”

Come, create, destroy, dance, perform, meet people, make a mess, talk to the artist, yell, kiss, explore, Oliver Herring, DJ Skywalker, Thursday, 7pm, Tang, Case Center, bring fun things.
