Creative minds from the Buckeye State took part in exchange programs overseas courtesy of the Ohio Arts Council. The resulting exhibit - curated by Susan Channing of Cleveland's SPACES exhibition venue and currently on dis­ play at the Weston Art Gallery- is a quick, exhilarating trip around the world that explores the international influences that these 13 artists have allowed to permeate their work. Most stunning in Connections is the 12-piece photographic essay by Ann Hamilton, "reflec­ tions." Chosen as representative to the 48th Venice Biennale in 1999, Hamilton found a shim­ mering way t.o tap into her own soul. Initially, she created her installation, "myein," just out­ side Venice's American Pavilion, incorporating a steel grid of rippled glass panes. But as she discovered, the artist could truly become one with the artwork. By placing herself behind the panes, she became the subject of her piece. Various natural lighting effects tweaked the image for a magical composition of a woman living beneath water. Hues of greenish-blue mak� the dozen photo­ graphs, one every five minutes over the course of an hour, add to the mythical air of the piece. Snugly fit side-by-side, the complete result is total immersion into the artist's world. World image is a key proponent of the work of Todd Devriese. From a distance it's easy to dismiss his work. His pieces appear to be noth­ ing more than grandiosemaps, perhaps an ode to his travels and best-suited for a historical museum. But you must move in closer to truly appreciate what he's done, showing that there are two ways to look at art. Devriese's collage on paper motif has taken a Ann Hamilton's "reflections 12:40" offers a shimmering demonstration of how travelling navigator's prime tool, snipping the light tans, overseas can affect an artist's perspective.

When La Biennale di Venezia Meets History does not just convey the content that visitors to the Central Pavilion in the Giardini della Biennale will encounter, but also a vision. Disquiet serves as a driving force behind research, which requires dialogue to verify its theories and needs history to absorb knowledge. This is what La Biennale does and will continue to do as it seeks to reinforce a methodology that creates even stronger bonds between its own disciplines. There are six Muses at the Biennale: Art, Architecture, Cinema, Theatre, Music and Dance, given a voice through the great events that fill Venice and the world every year. There are the places that serve as venues for all of La Biennale’s activities: the Giardini, the Arsenale, the Palazzo del Cinema and other cinemas on the Lido, the theatres, the city of Venice itself.

    Optimismo Radical PR Final

    Optimismo Radical Through September 3 Paulo Bruscky Waltercio Caldas Luis Camnitzer Jota Castro Juan Manuel Echavarria Dario Escobar Patrick Hamilton Artur Lescher Rafael Lozano-Hemmer Marco Maggi Liliana Porter Ana Tiscornia Josée Bienvenu Gallery is pleased to present Optimismo Radical. Bringing together twelve international artists, the exhibition is an invitation to reflect on those two words. Two redundant or contradictory words? Is Radical Optimism the opposite of moderate optimism? Or the opposite of conservative pessimism? The challenge is to articulate a series of questions, to detect some trends and attitudes. Conceived as a project in motion, Optimismo Radical 2 will take place in São Paulo at Galeria Nara Roesler in 2011. Paulo Bruscky was born in Recife, Brazil, where he lives and works. He has actively participated in the Brazilian art scene since the late 1960ʼs. His artistic practice is varied and experimental, combining performance, public interventions, drawings, mail art, video, radio, books and exploring multiple techniques such electrography and Xerox art among others. He was included in the São Paulo Biennial in 1981, 1989 and 2004 and in the Havana Biennial in 1984 and 2009. In 1981, he received a Guggenheim Fellowship. Born in Brazil, Waltercio Caldas lives and works in Rio de Janeiro. Considered one of the most important contemporary Brazilian artists, his work is often related to the Brazilian Neo-Concrete movement of the 1960ʼs. Exhibiting actively since the 1970ʼs he has represented Brazil at Documenta IX (1992); 23rd São Paulo Biennial (1996) and 47th Venice Biennale (1997). He was invited by Robert Storr to be part of the 52nd Venice Biennial (2007).

    How the Finnish Pavilion at the Venice Biennale Had to Change Into a Black Box for Contemporary Video Art and How It Became a Symbol for Artists to Defeat

    Alvar Aalto Researchers’ Network Seminar – Why Aalto? 9-10 June 2017, Jyväskylä, Finland Against Aalto: How the Finnish Pavilion at the Venice Biennale had to change into a black box for contemporary video art and how it became a symbol for artists to defeat Gianni Talamini architect, PhD Department of Architecture & Civil Engineering City University of Hong Kong Tat Chee Avenue, Kowloon, Hong Kong P6424 AC1 Tel: (852) 3442 7618 Email: [email protected] Title Against Aalto: how the Finnish Pavilion at the Venice Biennale had to change into a black box for contemporary video art and how it became a symbol for artists to defeat. Abstract The Finnish Pavilion at the Venice Biennale has hosted more than 30 exhibitions since its construction in 1956. Alvar Aalto designed the space as a temporary structure to display conventional Finnish visual art, such as the work of Helene Schjerfbeck. Although being relatively short, the history of the pavilion has been very eventful. The original plan for a temporary building to be dismantled and rebuilt every second year was not followed. Soon after its construction the pavilion instead went through a period of semi- abandonment, being used as a storage space and green house. Only the death of its designer in 1976 brought interest from the general public back to the pavilion for a short time. In the 1990s the dedicated work of Finnish scholars contributed crucially to the conservation both of the building and its history. After the 2000s Finland again started to use the pavilion as a national exhibition space.

    National and International Modernism in Italian Sculpture from 1935-1959 by Antje K. Gamble A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History of Art) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Professor Alexander D. Potts, Chair Associate Professor Giorgio Bertellini Professor Matthew N. Biro Sharon Hecker Associate Professor Claire A. Zimmerman Associate Professor Rebecca Zurier Copyright: Antje K. Gamble, 2015 © Acknowledgements As with any large project, this dissertation could not have been completed without the support and guidance of a large number of individuals and institutions. I am glad that I have the opportunity to acknowledge them here. There were a large number of funding sources that allowed me to study, travel, and conduct primary research that I want to thank: without them, I would not have been able to do the rich archival study that has, I think, made this dissertation an important contribution to the field. For travel funding to Italy, I thank the Horace R. Rackham Graduate School at the University of Michigan for its support with the Rackham International International Research Award and the Rackham Rackham Humanities Research Fellowship. For writing support and U.S.-based research funding, I thank the Department of History of Art at the University of Michigan, the Rackham Graduate School, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and the University of Michigan Museum of Art. For conference travel support, I thank the Horace R. Rackham Graduate School, the Department of History of Art, and the American Association of Italian Studies. While in Italy, I was fortunate enough to work with a great number of amazing scholars, archivists, librarians and museum staff who aided in my research efforts.
