The department quickly became known as site for advanced and experimental art with a faculty who worked across disciplines and practices.
The founders were soon joined by other leading experimental artists, including Harold Cohen, Allan Kaprow, Jerome Rothenberg, Manny Farber, Standish Lawder, Patricia Paterson, Italo Scanga, Ernie Silva and J.P. Gorin.
Founded in 1966 by a highly distinguished group of conceptual artists including Paul Brach, Helen and Newton Harrison and David and Eleanor Antin, who designed the MFA curriculum around theoretical and critical issues, rather than medium and technique, as was traditional at art schools.
