  • Use Your Illusion by Hilarie M
    I N M A N G A L L E R Y Trends April 2012 Use Your Illusion By Hilarie M. Sheets Contemporary sculptors are tricking the eye and the mind with uncannily realistic objects In the legendary contest of artistic ability in ancient Greece, Zeuxis thought he had won a victory when his painted grapes looked so real they attracted birds—that is, until Parrhasius moved to unveil his own painting and revealed the curtain itself to be an illusion. The age-old idea of trompe l’oeil—fooling the eye with astounding realism—has taken on new dimensions among contemporary artists, particularly those sculptors whose work confounds the viewer in shared physical space. Lavishing time and often extraordinary materials on mimetic renditions of the highly ordinary—a garbage bag, an aging man, a suburban kitchen— artists make us look twice and fill us with wonder, bafflement, delight, and discomfort. “Trompe l’oeil was once a measure of how well an artist could paint, but over the last century skill alone has rarely been enough to make an artwork interesting,” says artist Alison Elizabeth Taylor, who was inspired to learn wood inlay in graduate school after seeing the Duke of Urbino’s Renaissance studiolo, installed in the Photograph of Patrick Jacobs working on Raked Leaves, 2008, a miniature “diorama” viewed through a three-inch Metropolitan Museum of Art, with its fantastic window. trompe l’oeil books and instruments. Taylor COURTESY THE ARTIST adapts the painstaking marquetry technique to render slices of destitution in American life, including a corner piece recently on view at James Cohan Gallery in New York that appears to be layers of peeling linoleum flooring.

  • Encountering Mimetic Realism: Sculptures by Duane Hanson, Robert Gober, and Ron Mueck
    Encountering Mimetic Realism: Sculptures by Duane Hanson, Robert Gober, and Ron Mueck by Monica Ines Huerta A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History of Art) in The University of Michigan 2010 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Patricia Simons, Co-Chair Associate Professor Rebecca Zurier, Co-Chair Associate Professor David T. Doris Professor Alexander D. Potts © Monica Ines Huerta All rights reserved 2010 To My Dad ii Acknowledgements Although it can at times feel like an isolating journey, a dissertation is never a solo adventure. There have been many people along the way that have contributed to the progress and completion of this project. I am grateful to my academic advisors who gave generously of their time and expertise. Rebecca Zurier, a supportive advisor, whose historical perspective continuously pushed me to creatively and critically think about the many permutations of realism. Patricia Simons, a wonderfully committed mentor, who asked the tough questions that helped me break through binaries in order to embrace more nuanced arguments. Alex Potts, whose early and ongoing support during my graduate career inspired me to delve deeper into the areas of modern and contemporary sculpture. And last be not least, David Doris, a most welcomed addition to my committee in the later stages of writing and whose creativity I will forever attempt to emulate. I would also like to extend a very warm thank you to the faculty and staff of the Department of the History of Art for their scholastic, financial, and logistical support. I am very thankful to the Ford Foundation for providing the necessary financial backing that allowed me to focus on the research and writing of this document during critical stages of its development.
