Abstract
5 Minutes is a limited-run publication featuring interviews between MFA candidates and artists invited to the University of Oregon through the Department of Art’s Visiting Artist Lecture Series. In this series, artists 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 artists presented their lecture; the interviewer and an editor met the visiting artist 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.
