The Spring 2022 Guest Artist in Print Program talk will focus on a 2019 book project titled Notes on Fundamental Joy; seeking the elimination of oppression through the social and political transformation of the patriarchy that otherwise threatens to bury us, which continues to evolve and unfold. Through the lens of this project, Carmen Winant will discuss her larger practice of working in visual archives and across interpersonal, intergenerational modes feminist exchange in service of querying notions of authorship, community, imagination, and permission.

Guest Artist in Print Program (GAPP) invites contemporary artists working in print media for a one week residency at UT to develop a new print project with the assistance of print faculty and students. In addition to presenting a public lecture, visiting artists directly engage with undergraduate and graduate students through studio visits, workshops, and/or class visits.
Since 1979 GAPP has invited notable contemporary artists such as, Luis Camnitzer, Squeak Carnwath, Karl Wirsum, and Judith Linhares, to create new work in the UT print shops alongside students. This unique program encourages and expands the dialogue about contemporary print at UT while also fostering an invaluable collaborative exchange of ideas, print methods, techniques, and processes.
