Michael Asher remains an outstanding example of a great art teacher. He taught at CalArts for many years along with John Baldessari and Douglas Heubler. What made Michael so influential was his sense of humour, his great intellegence and his indifference to the commercial gallery circuit. He had huge respect for his students. I remember him as a very social guy- he liked to hang out and that’s so important for a community.
