BAGI's Visiting Artist Series

BAGI brings local, national and international artists to the facility to teach and to interact with the local community.  The program has brought local artists and students in contact with some of the most innovative artists working today and those interactions have inspired both the students and the artists to create new work.  In addition to being hands-on with students, the visiting artists spend time with patrons and the local community to talk about their art and demonstrate their process in the studio.  

Since 2008, BAGI has hosted Laura Donefer, Jenny Pohlman and Sabrina Knowles, Jay Macdonell, Randy Walker, John de Wit, Boyd Sugiki and Lisa Zerkowitz, Afro Celotto, Richard Royal, Charles Savoie, Martin Janecky, Michael Janis, and Marc Petrovic. We have many artists nationally and internationally who have expressed an interest in coming to San Jose and we plan on bringing multiple artists to BAGI every year.

BAGI has had three visiting artists in 2011:
  • Hiroshi Yamano
  • Michael Menconi and Charlie Lowrie
  • Jenny Pohlman and Sabrina Knowles


BAGI had three visiting artists in 2010:
  • Martin Janecky
  • Boyd Sugiki and Lisa Zerkowitz
  • Michael Janis

 

BAGI is a recognized 501(c)(3) non-profit organization funded in part by the City of San Jose's Office of Cultural Affairs and the Arts Council Silicon Valley.
