Excerpts here:
- Explaining the impact Pier Marton has had on me is like explaining the impact of a close friend or family member… Pier Marton is a treasure. — Stefan Block. His first book, The Story of Forgetting, was translated into twelve languages, his upcoming second novel is praised by Edmund White as “unflagging and deeply admirable…a brilliant young author”.
- Pier Marton was the best teacher I had at Washington University and continues to be an extremely important mentor for me in the professional realm. Any success that I have had in the world of the moving image is due to the teaching of Pier Marton. I credit Pier for having the wisdom, patience and kindness, even until today – 4 years after I have graduated – to help mold me into an award winning director and artist. — Aaron Duffy, 2010 Super Bowl commercial director, featured at New Director’s Showcase in Cannes, Best Director/British Animation Awards, over 5 million views on Youtube, with two commercials inducted into the MoMA’s archives for The Art and Technique of the American Commercial.
- A magnet for enthusiastic and passionate students. — Joy Li, Senior Art Director at TBWA GROUP CHINA (Hong Kong).
- The John Cage of the classroom. — Ann Hirsch, M.F.A. Artist.
- I have never met anyone who was born to teach as Pier is. Paola Laterza, M.F.A. Artist from Italy
