Marilyn Minter, renowned visual artist and longtime SVA MFA Fine Arts faculty member, gave the keynote speech at SVA’s 46th annual commencement exercises. Minter urged the graduating class of ’21 to find their authentic voice, see failure as a teacher (and an essential part of the process) and to break the rules on their journey of making great art which speaks to the world.
