"Did you hear the one about the engineer that walked into an art gallery?"

Mark Pauline

About the talk:

A serious discussion of the role of the engineer as an art world serf in a world of dwindling practical applications.

Curator's Notes:

Mark designs and builds big robotic beasts which fight. His world is filled with exotic robotic beasts spitting fire and smelling of overheated metal. Few can resist finding joy in the battle.

Mark Pauline has recently been discovered by the art community. See his show notice which appeared in the New York Times.
