sessions

At the session "Studio Practice and Poststudio Production: Reconsidering the Roles of Artist and Curator" (February 12, 2010) at the College Art Association Annual Conference, the session chair Michelle White allowed an imposter to present himself as CAA member Mary Jane Jacob. The presentation was not authorized by either CAA or Prof. Jacob and did not represent her views. Neither the impersonation of individuals nor the misrepresentation of their views at a CAA forum is consistent with the ethical standards of CAA or the visual arts profession that we represent.
