BURNAWAY invited Rainey Knudson, founder and director of the Texas visual arts website Glasstire, to Atlanta as a mentor in our Art Writers Mentorship Program. She also gave a spirited talk on regionalism and negative criticism at Atlanta Contemporary, our partner in crime. For those of you who couldn’t make it, we’ve got you covered with this video. Be sure to stick around for the fiery Q&A at the end!
