Marilyn Minter

Raw Beauty... Today on SCADcast, we'll hear from painter, photographer, and sociocultural activist, Marilyn Minter. For close to fifty years, her work has challenged and enlightened — exposed and heightened. Minter visited Savannah as SCAD's 2020 deFINE ART Honoree, and her retrospective exhibition, "Nasty Woman," is currently on view virtually at www.scadmoa.org/exhibitions. During her visit to SCAD, she encouraged students to consider techniques that are underutilized and to question the status quo. Minter's tenacious spirit echoed through her paintings and photographs that adorned the walls of the SCAD Museum of Art, and drew in audiences with their magnetic appeal. Paula Wallace sat with Minter during the deFINE ART festival, and the two looked back on the techniques and materials Minter has mastered over the years, her collaborations with top brands, and her continued advocacy for women's rights.
