MATT MULLICAN/ Monday 05 - Friday 09 November/ VISITS 
ID/SCULPTURE/NEW GENRES

Matt Mullican is this year’s Art Department Art Council Chair. He will be here for one week each quarter and will give an Artist Lecture in the spring. As Council Chair, he will conduct 3-4 days of grad studio visits during each quarter.  THERE ARE 21 MEETINGS FOR FALL ALONE.

The work of Matt Mullican (born 1951, Santa Monica, USA) focuses on the 

meaning of life and the world order, which he tries to make visible in his spatially 

invasive installations. He gets hypnotized a lot.  
Mullican sees each object, each person and each phenomenon (or their depiction) as part of the universe and as a universe in 

itself. The artist is convinced that all that exists has a meaning that can be 

understood from a concrete context. This world view dovetails with both the 

immoderate as well as unfulfillable claim to collecting everything, presenting it in 

a system and thus give the world that surrounds us a structure. In so doing, 

mullican finds support in scientific methods like classifying in taxonomies and 

encyclopaedias. The result is a system that becomes a model of the world, of a 

subjective cosmology in which everything is interconnected and provides us with 

very astonishing perspectives.
