 File — Box: Mixed pav_9, cassette: 11

Scope and Contents

In this audio recording, which starts after the critic session is underway, an unidentified critic, who sounds like Parsons School of Design alumnus and fashion designer Albert Capraro, discusses a project to produce "light" and "breezy" clothing for an evening inspired by a place. He discusses how he travels to the Greek islands and Morocco every year. He shares an anecdote about teaching in California, possibly a reference to the Otis Institute of Art, which was once a Parsons affiliate, and shares his thoughts about the value of teamwork and competition among students. This may be part of Capraro's 1994 critic session.
