Oliver Family Learning To Love You More

oliver.jpg The Oliver family of Seattle is completing all 63 assignments on Learning To Love You More, and their results will be displayed at Seattle's Bumbershoot Festival, September 1-3, 2007. Learning To Love You More is both a Web site and series of non-Web presentations comprising artwork made by the general public in response to assignments given by artists Miranda July and Harrell Fletcher (Ex., Assignment #9: Draw a constellation from someone's freckles). Carol Oliver (age 49), Mike Oliver (age 47), Nigel Oliver (age 20), Pete Oliver (age 14), Sydney Oliver (age 12) and Mary Oliver (age 5) have 40 more assignments to complete in the next month. Their videos, drawings, photographs, songs and writing will be on exhibition at Bumbershoot. You can see their achievements online at Learning's Web site and follow their progress toward Assignment 63 on their own blog. [LINK] Posted by Linda Frye Burnham
