How can we view his art and design within today's environment of fervent consumption, heightened consumerism, and political cynicism? A series of presentations, conversations, and gallery talks will explore how concepts of appropriation, plagiarism, legality, and process have been exploded.=0D=0A=0D=0AStart time:10:00am-5:00pm
