Three Turns Miami curator Tony Labat
at Untitled Art Miami Beach 2021.
In this interview Mr. Labat talks about how he came to the U.S. from Cuba as a teenager in the 1960s and found his way to the San Francisco Art Institute as a student in 1976. Tony Labat became a professor at SFAI in 1985.
As an interdiscipilinary artist, Tony worked within the performance/video dept. which eventually developed into what is now New Genres.

IN MEMORIAM

The writer bell hooks, in 1996.
“I came to theory desperate, wanting to comprehend — to grasp what was happening around and within me,” she once wrote.

In honor of bell hooks we want to pay tribute with this obituary. Although hooks was not a SFAI alum, we recognize the profound intellectual and humanist influence she had on artists, teachers and the whole international art community. Read MORE via THE GUARDIAN.
