Facilitate an Encounter / Encuentro | Dignicraft | The Art Assignment

Pre-order our book YOU ARE AN ARTIST (which includes new assignments!) here: http://bit.ly/2kplj2h

The Art Assignment visits artist collective Dignicraft during their residency at the McColl Center for Art + Innovation, in Charlotte, North Carolina. Omar Foglio, José Luis Figueroa, and Paola Rodriguez give us the assignment to facilitate an Encounter / Encuentro, a form of community building.

Sarah Green then explores social practice with the work of Nicolas Bourriaud, who suggests that the rise of urbanization after World War II gave raise to art that is also urbanized.

INSTRUCTIONS - Encounters / Encuentros
1. Think of two people who you know who have similar interests but don't know each other
2. Facilitate a collaboration by introducing them and suggesting they do something together
3. Document the experience
4. Upload to your social media platform of choice using #theartassignment
5. Fame and glory (your work might be featured in a future episode)
