Could there be painting without paint? Oropallo answered with a resounding yes. Pioneering new techniques, she created a hybrid form whose look owed little or nothing to photographers and graphic designers, the technology's early adopters. For the record: Oropallo has never gone all the way digital. Heroine, her latest series, includes plenty of actual brush strokes. She applies them to soft-porn photos culled from the Internet, which she electronically transforms into fantastical, dangerous protagonists. Like those in prior series, which featured costumed, bandaged women modeling gas masks and scantily clad rodeo queens gyrating like transparent sex ghosts, the source images for this body of work are repurposed to accommodate Oropallo’s interest in placing female superheroes in post-feminist stances – flaunting their sex appeal and their power. What's diferent this time around is that some of them become victims of the sort that fairy tales warn little girls against. As in all such stories, the real subject is power, and in this series, where the subjects are female fencers, it cuts in several directions. While some of Oropallo's characters stand defiantly and strike contemplative or come-hither poses, others lay sprawled on the ground as if mortally wounded.

  • In 1925, Eight Actors Were Dedicated to a Dream. Expatriated from Their Broadway Haunts by Constant Film Commitments, They Wante
    In 1925, eight actors were dedicated to a dream. Expatriated from their Broadway haunts by constant film commitments, they wanted to form a club here in Hollywood; a private place of rendezvous, where they could fraternize at any time. Their first organizational powwow was held at the home of Robert Edeson on April 19th. ”This shall be a theatrical club of love, loy- alty, and laughter!” finalized Edeson.

  • 2014 Annual Report
    Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art Annual Report 2014 REPOR T from the President and Director & CEO Renewing the Wadsworth Atheneum The past twelve months have been one of the most transformative chapters in the long and illustrious history of the Wadsworth Atheneum. From completing the second phase of our $33 million roof-to-basement renovation, bringing our campus of five historic buildings into the 21st century, to maintaining the museum’s standards for excellence in scholarship, acquisitions, and groundbreaking exhibitions, Daniel Wadsworth’s “spirit of genius” has continued to inspire creative collaboration and forward momentum since the museum first opened to the public 170 years ago on July 31, 1844. Increased commitments from generous funders energized the massive renewal project. The year began on a high note with the thrilling news of a $5 million award from the State of Connecticut, bringing the State’s total investment in our building renovation to $25 million and ensuring that we could confidently enter the final phase of work on the Wadsworth and Morgan Memorial Buildings. We extend our utmost gratitude to Governor Malloy and his administration for their trust in our mission, and we are fully committed to our crucial role as a thriving cultural destination with a measurable economic impact for the State of Connecticut. Another transformative moment came with the unexpected announcement of the largest single bequest in the museum’s history — $9.6 million from the estate of former museum member Charles H. Schwartz. This significant gift, designated for the acquisition of European artworks from the 18th century or earlier, was immediately put to good use by our curatorial team’s newest member, Susan Morse Hilles Curator of European Art Oliver Tostmann.
