Abstract
5 Minutes is a limited-run publication featuring interviews between art and art history graduate students and art professionals invited to the University of Oregon through the Department of Art’s Visiting Artist Lecture Series. In this series, artists, curators and historians from widely varying geographies, disciplines, and methodologies lecture on their work, histories, and ideas, providing insight into their lives and practices. 5 Minutes is a platform to aggregate the casual, short-format interviews conducted throughout each academic year into a tangible, printed document that gives form to the otherwise ephemeral interactions.
With a few exceptions, these interviews took place just before the visiting lecturer gave their presentation; the interviewer met the interviewee near campus and walked with them—sometimes quite frantically to stay on schedule—to Lawrence Hall where they would speak. As suggested by the title 5 Minutes, these encounters were brief, but they were also spirited. Each of the following interviews offers a meaningful glimpse into the individuals on either side of the conversation.
