Broadly Speaking: Working Across Disciplines brings together four artists whose interests and creative work transcend the tradition of working in a single medium. These dynamic individuals pursue their creative ideas by exploring multiple strategies of art making as a means of expressing their visions (or point of view). By combining practices, these artists emphasize concept over their commitment to medium, creating surprising bodies of work that illuminate the richness and diversity that defines contemporary artistic practice today. Mira Schor is a painter and writer noted for her advocacy of painting in a post-medium visual culture and for her contributions to feminist art history. Schor’s work balances political and theoretical concerns with formalist and material passions. Her work has included periods in which gendered narrative and representation of the body have been featured; at other times the focus of her work has been representation of language in drawing and paintings. In both painting and writing, Schor's areas of interest include the gendered production of art history, the analysis and praxis of painting in post-modern culture, and the relationship between political and conceptual concerns with the materiality of expression.
