TYLER STALLINGS
Since 1988, I have been involved in the arts, professionally, as a writer, artist, filmmaker, and curator. After being born and raised in the southeast (Louisiana, Alabama, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Georgia), I moved to Southern California for graduate school in 1990, where I’ve lived since then, developing my professional career in the arts as an artist, academic, and administrator. This C.V. is ordered first by creative writing, then curatorial/academic writing; followed by filmography and exhibitions as a visual artist; and, lastly, my curatorial work. Currently, I am an active artist and director/senior curator at the Frank M. Doyle Arts Pavilion, Orange Coast College, Costa Mesa, California. My current artistic practice centers around creative non-fiction writing and filmmaking.

“Southland Flaneur” column for Artillery art magazine
Wrote the “Southland Flaneur” column for Artillery art magazine, based in Los Angeles. Each essay began with an art exhibition or event that would become the impetus for considering larger issues in the world. Its lyrical and freewheeling style is a precedent for the longer form one that I use for my current postings on KCET-TV Artbound (see above for their titles).
