So Friday I went to see Suzaan Boettger talk.
Excerpts of the good stuff…
“Artists explore in advance of the regulars…”
“Enterprizing artists critique, and want the recognition of their peers…”
(I’m not sure what she really meant by that, but it was interesting none the less)
Here’s a book to check out about the role of SFAI by Richard Candida Smith Utopia & Dissent in California

“Art is what you don’t know, the rest is art history.”

Pete Ippel, the son of a dancer and a musician, was born in Oak Park, Illinois and has been surrounded by the arts since birth. He moved to Morris, Illinois in 1989 and started to participate in athletics rather than dance. After high school, Pete attended Cornell University where he received a BA in psychology and a BFA in photo / digital art making. He continued to follow his sporting dreams in the high jump, which culminated in a school record leap of 7 feet 1/2 inch in 2001.
In May 2004 he attained an MFA degree in the New Genres department of the San Francisco Art Institute. Presently Pete is a practicing artist whose work is in numerous private collections and has been exhibited in New York, California, and internationally.
Mr. Ippel resides in Working Artists Ventura, a sustainable artist community in southern California. In addition, he teaches art, is a web developer, an active blogger, and still high jumps from time to time.
As a passionate problem solver and a pragmatic optimist, Pete’s art and his life are full of exciting challenges.
