Coming to an end…a short but sweet look at the week: Leipzig Residency – Part 6
By Krista Smith (MFA 2014) The past couple of weeks here have flown by. Between painting, panting in our stifling rooms, and making quick escapes to the lake, we managed to put together a great end of summer show. We all crawled out of our studios to help clean and hang the work alongside Kristina and Mareika (interns of LIA)… Read More
Cospudener & The Bauhaus: Leipzig Residency, Part 5
By Shangkai (Kevin) Yu (MFA 2014) It is my feeling that it would be important to make a post that reflects our time here accurately. Beer drinking, sausage eating, lake swimming, grass and beach napping, museum visiting, and painting are our life in Leipzig.

By Alicia Brown (MFA 2014) It has been 34 days since we entered the gates of the Spinnerei, and every day from that moment has been a pinch-me experience.

The Spinnerei, Leipzig’s City Center and Berlin in a Nutshell: Leipzig Residency, Part 2
By Krista Smith (MFA 2014) We are going into week three here at the Spinnerei, and everyone is deep into their own work. For me, the Spinnerei is kind of like one massive production site where artists from all over the world come to nestle into their industrial-sized lofts and make some serious use of its big white walls. Our… Read More
Welcome to the Spinnerei: Leipzig Residency, Part 1
By Shangkai Kevin Yu (MFA 2014) Krista Smith and I met up with Tim Buckley in Munich to take the propeller plane into Leipzig. I will never forget seeing Tim’s familiar big beard and broad smile when he found us at the airport and listening to him rave about how amazing sitting in a tin can at 37,000 feet… Read More
