Apply to be a Student Drawer at the Utah Museum of Fine Arts (by January 21st)

In February 2019 the Utah Museum of Fine Art will install the recently acquired Sol LeWitt wall drawing for the first time, and they need your help! A draftsperson authorized by the Estate of Sol LeWitt will oversee a select group of University of Utah student drafters from Feb 13-26, 2019. 

Sol LeWitt (American, 1928–2007) is widely regarded as one of the leading exponents of Minimalism and Conceptual art. He is known primarily for his deceptively simple geometric sculptures and architecturally-scaled wall drawings. Many Conceptual artists used linguistic systems or mathematical formulas to dictate the production of their work.  LeWitt used language in the form of instructions to detail how his wall drawings should be made by others. By leaving the execution of his wall drawings to others, LeWitt repositioned the role of the artist.
