Writing an Artist Statement

Do you have any sources to help with writing an artist statement?

This pdf on Artist's Statements shows ways to search for artist's interviews and statements in the RISD catalog and includes a list of reference books such as, Twentieth-century artists on art : an index to writings, statements, and interviews by artists, architects, and designers.

RISD Library has many artist interviews on video and dvd which may provide an inspired starting point. Here are a few suggestions: Four Artists, Art 21, New Histories, Point of View: an anthology of the moving image.

RISD Library has eight individual vhs/dvd viewing stations as well as two classrooms and the beanbag room for watching videos in the library.
