  • Moma PS1 to PRESENT FIRST NEW YORK EXHIBITION of NIKI DE SAINT PHALLE OPENING MARCH 11
    MoMA PS1 TO PRESENT FIRST NEW YORK EXHIBITION OF NIKI DE SAINT PHALLE OPENING MARCH 11 LONG ISLAND CITY, New York, February 8, 2021— MoMA PS1 presents the first New York museum exhibition of the work of visionary feminist artist Niki de Saint Phalle (American and French, 1930‒2002). On view from March 11 to September 6, 2021, Niki de Saint Phalle: Structures for Life will feature over 200 works created from the mid-1960s until the artist’s death, including sculptures, prints, drawings, jewelry, films, and archival materials. Highlighting Saint Phalle’s interdisciplinary approach and engagement with key social and political issues, the exhibition will focus on works that she created to transform environments, individuals, and society. From the beginning of her career in the 1950s, Saint Phalle pushed against accepted artistic practices, creating work that used assemblage as well as performative and collaborative modes of production. Saint Phalle initially gained attention in the early 1960s with her Tirs, paintings produced by firing a gun at plaster reliefs to release pockets of paint, and Nanas, brightly colored sculptures of female figures whose sinuous curves would inform much of her work to come. Beginning in the late 1960s, Saint Phalle started producing large-scale sculptures, which led to an expansion of her practice into architectural projects, sculpture gardens, books, prints, films, theater sets, clothing, jewelry, and, famously, her own perfume. Central to the exhibition is an examination of Saint Phalle’s large-scale outdoor sculptures and architectural projects, including Le rêve de l’oiseau (built for Rainer von Diez between 1968 and 1971); Golem, a playground in Jerusalem (1971-72); Le Dragon de Knokke, a children’s playhouse in Belgium (1973-75); and La fontaine Stravinsky (1983); among others.

    For Immediate Release ADRIENNE ELISE TARVER: THE SUN, THE MOON, AND THE TRUTH September 8, 2021 to January 2, 2022 Tarver debuts a new series of works on paper and a large- scale painting inspired by tarot and Afrofuturist imagery, marking the artist’s first solo museum presentation The Sun, the Moon, and the Truth is the first solo museum presentation of Brooklyn-based artist Adrienne Elise Tarver (b. 1985) and the second series in The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum’s newly established Aldrich Projects. Tarver debuts Manifesting Paradise (2020–ongoing), a suite of twenty-two mixed media works on paper based on the Major Arcana (major mysteries), the foundational card set of the centuries-old tarot deck, alongside Weary As I Can Be (2021). The vibrant colors and tropical settings that saturate these compositions—a fixture of her overall practice—aim to reclaim the perceptions of the exoticized, tropical seductress imparted on Black and brown women by Western civilization. Adrienne Elise Tarver Magician, 2020 Here, the faraway temptress meets another long-standing trope: the Black Courtesy of the artist Voodoo priestess, a treasury of esoteric wisdom. Adrienne Elise Tarver: The Sun, the Moon, and the Truth will be on view at The Aldrich September 8, 2021 to January 2, 2022. Conceived amidst the Covid-19 pandemic and the racial injustice movements of 2020, Manifesting Paradise marks a polar shift in the artist’s approach as she turns her analytical lens from the past to the future. Substituting investigations of origin stories with divinatory tokens and metaphysical forecasts, Tarver turns her attention forward in pursuit of effecting hope and solace during a time of vast uncertainties.

  • The 5 Coin Oracle
    Printed and produced by Old Yellow Moon Publishing February 2019 Copyright Cara Lyn Hamilton © See other products on: www.carahamilton.co.uk www.secret-tarot-garden.com Origins There are numerous coin oracles available. Geomancy based methods are the rule and as reading systems they are excellent and carry a wonderful history if historic methods interest you. This oracle comes from my experience in Tea Cup, Rune and Tarot Reading. As at the time of writing I have over 20 years professional reading experience I hope this speaks well of the thought and process invested in this system. My aim was to create a Zen reading system that would be simple, easy to read and perform. As a reader or performer you can add this into your current work without difficulty. Since I created it a few years ago, I have used it on numerous occasions to add something different into a reading. This oracle pdf gives you a reading framework, and interpretation guide, my additional thoughts on interpretation and how to relate it to a Tarot Reading with my Zairja Tarot Reading. Note: This system is aimed at both the Fortune Teller and the Magician. I believe my system to be of great value to both communities and those who work in both fields. Contents: Requirements How to think about the system Landscape Reading The General Reading Breaking the rules Health Issues With Palmistry The Cartomancy Square The Seven Planets Reading The Zairja Reading Requirements 5 coins, that is it. Personally I use either Victorian pennies or bronze coins of Chinese style and carry interesting Chinese calligraphy markings on one side and sun, moon and monkeys on the other.

  • The Body in Art
    THE BODY IN ART MEDIATION FORM INTRODUCTION First subjected to aesthetic canons, the represented body gradually freed itself from classical values. The modern era marks a challenge to the ideal of beauty, even freeing itself from representation. From then on, the body was distorted, dislocated, stylized, transformed, shaking up the pictorial and sculptural representation of the 20th century. Beyond the representation itself, the body becomes a tool, a trace and an imprint, the artist puts his own body into play. This visit through the works in the permanent collection allows us to follow the changes in this major subject of 20th century art. Duration of the tour • Primary School 1H • Middle School 1H • High School / College 1H Objectives • To discover the different representations of the human body • Discover color as a component of the 2 artwork • Learn to understand an artwork • Familiarization with the specific vocabulary of art A STEPSA OF THE VISIT Based on this information, the teacher will have to make a choice of steps according to the level of the class and the availability of the artworks in the room. The stages can be adjusted at the convenience of the teachers. The arrival preparation form must be completed. Step 1: Representation of the body Step 2: emancipation of the body Step 3: the body at work B RELATEDA KNOWLEDGE A STEPSA OF THE VISIT STEP 1: REPRESENTATION OF THE BODY With modernity, artists are trying to shake up the traditional codes of representation of the body. Attacking figurative codes, beauty, proportion and ideas of likelihood, the artists propose a completely different range of images based on industrial and modern production techniques.

  • Niki De Saint Phalle's International Workshop
    Niki de Saint Phalle’s International Workshop Like the great cathedrals of Europe that inspired her work, Niki de Saint Phalle’s own monumental projects are the creation of both a singular vision and a collective ideal. Since the 1970s, she has collaborated with a team of artists, artisans, and other specialists whose own unique talents and fierce dedication were critical to the realization of many of her large-scale environmental gardens, parks, and public art projects. The building of Queen Califia’s Magical Circle is no exception and for the four individuals whose stories are highlighted below, the opportunity to work with Saint Phalle over the years has been deeply affecting on both a personal and professional level. “I have been very fortunate in my life to work with many leading artists like Richard Serra and Jasper Johns and I think that Niki has been one of my major influences,” said Ron McPherson, whose company La Paloma has fabricated many of the artist’s large sculptures since 1994. “It is just incredible to see a person that can live in so many different worlds at one time—a mature woman, a child, a mystic, and a realist.” Marcelo Zitelli, La Jolla, California Argentinean-born Marcelo Zitelli first met Saint Phalle in 1987 in Paris where he had come to work in the theater. For the first five years, he lived in the artist’s home, assisting her in the making of small maquettes from original drawings, and working with her and Jean Tinguely on the fountain at Château Chinon for French President Mitterand, and at the Tarot Garden in southern Tuscany.
