Chapter 3: Artwork To The People
In 1997, Tom Judd curated a month long rotating exhibition at the TZ Art Gallery in New York City called “The Chalkboard Chronicles”. Using three large chalkboards, twelve artists were asked to abandon the concept of the ‘cloistered artist working in isolation’ by exploring the process of creating art in a public forum.

Throughout the process, artists were interviewed before, during and after their time appearing in the creative act to gallery pedestrians.

Lines and Layers: Handwriting inspires Courtenaye’s art
