The Critical Response Process "actually seemed to open up the space for people to feel more empathy for the artist's process and offer opinions that were coming from a more informed place." That's according to blogger Pete Hocking, who reported on the CRP presentations that colleague Peter DiMuro and I made last week at Rhode Island School of Design (RISD). Critique, or "crit" as they call it, is a way of life at RISD, which made the students at this renowned art school a discerning and demanding audience to play to. Check out the post at RISD Public Engagement (including a photo of yours truly doing a crazy hand jive) and watch this space for more reflections on our RISD experience soon.
And this from quite a different domain of practice: Critical Response Process "wouldn’t need much adjusting to make a fine template for jury deliberations." Those are the words of Anne Reed, a trial lawyer and jury consultant in Milwaukee who maintains the blog Deliberations, which focuses on "law, news, and thoughts on juries and jury trials." I won't tell the circuitous story of how she encountered CRP -- you can catch up with that on her post -- but I will mention how tickled I was to have a drawing of mine picked up by her online American Gallery of Juror Art. Anne is clearly a person of with a broad and humane grasp of the legal discipline, and I was delighted to see how CRP caught her interest.
