Discovering the Contemporary
of formalist distance upon which modernists had relied for understanding the world. Critics increasingly pointed to a correspondence between the formal properties of 1960s art and the nature of the radically changing world that sur- rounded them. In fact formalism, the commitment to prior- itizing formal qualities of a work of art over its content, was being transformed in these years into a means of discovering content. Leo Steinberg described Rauschenberg’s work as “flat- bed painting,” one of the lasting critical metaphors invented 1 in response to the art of the immediate post-World War II Discovering the Contemporary period.5 The collisions across the surface of Rosenquist’s painting and the collection of materials on Rauschenberg’s surfaces were being viewed as models for a new form of realism, one that captured the relationships between people and things in the world outside the studio. The lesson that formal analysis could lead back into, rather than away from, content, often with very specific social significance, would be central to the creation and reception of late-twentieth- century art. 1.2 Roy Lichtenstein, Golf Ball, 1962.

Ali Banisadr / MATRIX 185 at the Wadsworth Marks Artist's First Solo
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact: Kim Hugo, (860) 838-4082 [email protected] Image files to accompany publicity of this exhibition will be available for download at http://press.thewadsworth.org. Email to request login credentials. Ali Banisadr / MATRIX 185 at the Wadsworth Marks Artist’s First Solo Museum Exhibition in the U.S. Hartford, Conn. (September 15, 2020)—Ali Banisadr draws freely from an encyclopedic knowledge of the history of painting to create a distinctive visual language, resulting in works that explore a “between space,” like those of hallucinations and dreams. Ali Banisadr / MATRIX 185 at the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art is the artist’s first solo museum exhibition in the U.S. Ten paintings and two prints by Banisadr join a selection of works from the Wadsworth collection chosen by the artist, as well as a video collage that Banisadr created to show additional inspiration works from the museum’s collection. The exhibition opens October 22, 2020 and will be on view through February 14, 2021. “Banisadr’s depictions of abstracted masses feel especially relevant right now,” says Patricia Hickson, Emily Hall Tremaine Curator of Contemporary Art at the Wadsworth. “His compositions echo the disquiet we are witnessing across the world today, including political rallies, protest marches, and street riots. And yet, as timely as they are, they are equally timeless.” Banisadr’s process has been related to synesthesia as sounds instruct the energy and rhythm in his painterly compositions. His perception of sound as inextricably linked to color and form began in his native Tehran, Iran during the Iran-Iraq War (1980–1988)— the artist recalls drawing while sheltering at home. -

About the Exhibition the Year 2020 Is a Historic One for the Evansville Museum’S Biennial Mid-States Art Exhibition, As It Marks Its Jubilee Anniversary
About the Exhibition The year 2020 is a historic one for the Evansville Museum’s biennial Mid-States Art Exhibition, as it marks its Jubilee Anniversary. The biennial exhibition provides recognition for emerging artists and the opportunity to receive a purchase or merit award. Selected for this retrospective are top award- winning works spanning sixty years which provide a unique overview of the development in trends and techniques of artists in the Midwest. The annual juried competition was organized in 1948 by the Museum’s Director, Charles Bogg; Registrar, Florita Eichel; and Museum Trustee William A. Gumberts. Originally named the Tri- State Art Exhibition, the competition accepted paintings, drawings, prints, sculpture, and crafts for consideration by a jury of two or three art professionals. In the first decade, the number of entries steadily grew; and, in 1960, the Museum organized a separate regional juried exhibition devoted to craft. The Mid- State Craft Exhibition and the Mid-States Art Exhibition were presented annually until 1994 when the decision was made to offer one regional juried competition each year and the two competitions became biennials. The competition is open to artists residing in the six Midwestern states of Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Ohio and Missouri. In the exhibition’s sixty-year history, the purchase and merit awards donated by local individuals, businesses, corporations, and philanthropic organizations have allowed the Evansville Museum to purchase 326 works for the Mid-States Art Collection. On this Jubilee Anniversary, we congratulate all the artists who have participated in the Mid-States Art Exhibition and thank the many generous patrons whose gifts have made the acquisition of this important collection possible. -

Mayor's Office of Arts, Tourism and Special Events Boston Art
Mayor’s Office of Arts, Tourism and Special Events Boston Art Commission 100 Public Artworks: Back Bay, Beacon Hill, the Financial District and the North End 1. Lief Eriksson by Anne Whitney This life-size bronze statue memorializes Lief Eriksson, the Norse explorer believed to be the first European to set foot on North America. Originally sited to overlook the Charles River, Eriksson stands atop a boulder and shields his eyes as if surveying unfamiliar terrain. Two bronze plaques on the sculpture’s base show Eriksson and his crew landing on a rocky shore and, later, sharing the story of their discovery. When Boston philanthropist Eben N. Horsford commissioned the statue, some people believed that Eriksson and his crew landed on the shore of Massachusetts and founded their settlement, called Vinland, here. However, most scholars now consider Vinland to be located on the Canadian coast. This piece was created by a notable Boston sculptor, Anne Whitney. Several of her pieces can be found around the city. Whitney was a fascinating and rebellious figure for her time: not only did she excel in the typically ‘masculine’ medium of large-scale sculpture, she also never married and instead lived with a female partner. 2. Ayer Mansion Mosaics by Louis Comfort Tiffany At first glance, the Ayer Mansion seems to be a typical Back Bay residence. Look more closely, though, and you can see unique elements decorating the mansion’s façade. Both inside and outside, the Ayer Mansion is ornamented with colorful mosaics and windows created by the famed interior designer Louis Comfort Tiffany. -
Art: the Future Is Comics Gabriel Galway
Art: The Future is Comics Gabriel Galway Art: The Future is Comics My second year project in college was to create a graphic novel about my life. In earlier discussions with my tutors I was trying to convince them that comics are an art form. They were not convinced and could not understand such a concept and disagreed. I was advised to try and explore a different avenue. However, in later discussions I told my tutors that “each panel would be an individual painting or piece of art in itself, and that the “graphic novel” would be “the gallery space”.” They agreed that this could be art but perhaps only under these conditions. Comics are a form of high art. The Last Supper, Leonardo Da Vinci, 1495–1498 Art: The Future is Comics Gabriel Galway Arkham Asylum: a serious house on serious earth, Grant Morrison & Dave McKean, 1989 To paraphrase Joseph Campbell: true Art should stop you, not move you. There is no reason why the image above from Grant Morrison and Dave McKean’s “Arkham Asylum” should not be considered a form of fine art like Leonardo Divinci’s “Last Supper”. “Comics”, have developed a bad reputation of being considered cheap and trashy books made to be sold to kids in order to make money. Perhaps they once were; bad stories, with terrible illustrations printed on cheap newsprint. Because of this fact that defines comics so narrowly we fail to understand their true potential. Comics have come a long way and have proven their potential to be considered a form of fine art.
