Otto Piene Memorial

Former Fellows and students from the Center for Advanced Visual Studies gathered November 8, 2014 to honor and celebrate Otto Piene who passed away in Berlin on July 17, 2014. Piene was instrumental in many art-and-technology movements as director of CAVS from 1974-1993. His memory is vibrantly alive in the CAVS family and works around the globe. It was an emotional, creative, respectful, and slightly wild. Heartfelt thanks to Elizabeth Goldring Piene, Seth Riskin, Mark Mendel, Laura Knott, Jon Goldman, Lees Ruoff, Vin Grabill, John Powell, Walter Dent, and all who worked so hard to bring the community together.
