To celebrate the first graduate class of the RCA’s new department in Critical Writing in Art and Design, Instacrit invites you to put any work from Show RCA 2012 into words.
LED screens in both South Kensington (downstairs in the Darwin building) and Battersea (the foyer of Test Bed 1) are now displaying up-to-the-minute responses to graduate work from visitors, as well as recommendations and information about associated Show RCA 2012 talks and events.
Instacrit invites you to find out what you really think. The simple act of description can be a nuanced critical tool, one that reveals both ‘how’ and ‘why’ you are looking. Choose any work in the show and write as concise a description as possible in 20 to 70 words. You might surprise yourself.
To contribute, email your response, your name, the name of the exhibiting designer/artist and the name of the work to instacrit@rca.ac.uk
A collaboration between the students of Critical Writing and the department of Design Interactions, Instacrit is an initiative of Elizabeth Glickfeld (MA, Critical Writing in Art and Design) developed by Yosuke Ushigome, Philipp Ronnenberg and Mike Vanis (1st year, Design Interactions).
