Lampert (Justseeds Artists' Cooperative) will provide an overview of the Artists' Union and the American Artists' Congress, two leading voices for radical artists during the 1930s. Both organizations responded to the Great Depression and the rise of fascism with collective action, purposefully aligning themselves with working class labor movements. The lecture will segue into an open discussion about how artists are addressing the present-day economic crisis. Presented in conjunction with Art Work: A National Conversation About Art, Labor and Economics by Temporary Services and collaborators, on view at Gallery 400 until March 6.

is presenting a paper "Three Dimensional Inspiration for Two Dimensional Innovation: Letterform Objects and Experimental Typography" at Design Principles and Practices 2010. This Conference will address a range of critically important themes relating the design today. It is a place to explore the meaning and purpose of …design‘, as well as speaking in grounded ways about the task of design and the use of designed artifacts and processes. The Conference is a cross-disciplinary forum which brings together researchers, teachers and practitioners to discuss the nature and future of design. The resulting conversations weave between the theoretical and the empirical, research and application, market pragmatics and social idealism. Oiga's presentation details a newly developed UIC Design course in which students first create physical, three dimensional letterform objects. Content and materials are selected by the students, based on their individual interests. Students develop creative skills (thinking and making) in three dimensions while building upon their knowledge of typography. Then the project moves beyond the construction of these letterform objects through the making of contextual pieces and other support collateral such as process diagrams and charts, fonts, specimen posters and, in one case, storyboard and animation. The letterform objects are not just the final pieces, but a resource for print design, typeface design, and moving image. Among the diverse materials used to create the letterform objects are: tonic water and a black lightbulb, highlighter ink, sugar, flora, curled paper, wire hangers, seashells, nylons, mirrors, a laser and fog machine, and rubberbands. The resulting projects are inventive, strongly compelling, and educationally transformative.
