3. Christina McPhee

   Christina McPhee is a media and visual artist whose work is involved in the ‘deep ecology’ of topologic mark-making, abstraction, and illumination. Her work often engages site and territory, integrates scientific data into sonified, time-based and visual images, and reflects on excess and beauty at the edges of architecture and natural science. Christina McPhee was born in Los Angeles in 1954. Her family moved to Nebraska when she was seven and she grew up on the edge of a small prairie town, and taught herself drawing. A voracious reader, she was also influenced by an intense involvement in piano and classical music, and, via minimal contact with the media culture of the period, a childhood of making things. She returned to Los Angeles with a full scholarship at Scripps College, Claremont, then transferred to Kansas City Art Institute to study painting (BFA 1976 valedictorian). She worked at Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, Harvard, then studied at Boston University School for the Arts. She was a student of Philip Guston during his last two years of teaching, and graduated with the MFA in painting in 1979.

10. Jackson Mac Low

    Poet, performance artist, and composer Jackson Mac Low was born in Chicago and began studying music as a child. After completing coursework at the University of Chicago, he moved to New York City, where he earned a BA in Greek at Brooklyn College. His early work as an etymologist and reference book contributor laid the foundation for his fascination with the possibilities found in units of sound and sense. Influenced by Gertrude Stein and Gerard Manley Hopkins, as well as by his studies in Buddhism and philosophy, Mac Low frequently composed poems as scripts for performance that rely on the mechanisms of chance rather than the conventions of syntax or intention. His work explores the intersections of language, structure, and music by systematically shuffling and silencing found and fragmented text. In an interview with Jacket magazine, Mac Low discussed his aim as a writer “to let what’s there be; especially letting words, linguistic units, be, not making them carry a burden of my thoughts, my feelings, or whatever.”
