About ChanSchatz 1985 - 2015
2012 Albright Knox Wall Text
Eric and Heather ChanSchatz (Eric Chan and Heather Schatz) integrated traditional approaches to artmaking, such as painting and sculpture, with socially engaged and event-based practices. The artists collaborated to create works of art based on their interaction with the public and invited participants through a process they explored and developed over their 30 year career.
ChanSchatz’s distinct visual language was exclusive to their working practice, and served as the foundation for each of their works. At the beginning of the process, participants were invited to select from a series of drawings, texts, and color combinations composed by the artists. Project guests included American soldiers in Iraq, coal miners in Pennsylvania, Cairo citizens in the Egyptian revolution, and stateless children in Thailand. Source: Albright Knox Wall Text
