  • Raya Bodnarchuk This Is a True Picture of How It Was
    Raya Bodnarchuk This is a True Picture of How it Was ALPER INITIATIVE FOR WASHINGTON ART Raya Bodnarchuk This is a True Picture of How it Was February 16 – August 8, 2021 American University Museum at the Katzen Arts Center Washington, DC ALPER INITIATIVE FOR WASHINGTON ART Table of Contents Foreword 5 Raya Bodnarchuk in Conversation with Jack Rasmussen 9 Biography 22 Exhibition Images 25 Dedication 50 Moon Shadows and Reflections, January 17, 2014. 2 | RAYA BODNARCHUK Foreword Raya Bodnarchuk has been an essential part of the arts ecosystem in Washing- ton since Glen Echo Park was reborn by the National Park Service as a Center for the Arts in 1974. She became one of its first Artists in Residence and gave fourteen years working and teaching in that community. Her imagery was, and still is, closely identified with Glen Echo Park, appearing on publications, posters, and banners for many years. Then, for thirty-two years, she was a fac- ulty member during the golden age of the Corcoran College of Art & Design. Together with her extensive exhibition career and public commissions, Raya has been at the center of what was good in Wash- ington over the past half century. Through it all, Raya never wavered from her com- mitment to her art and to the craft of art, or from passing along her knowledge of making and her modeling of what it means to be a true artist to the next generation. It seems that Bruce Nauman got it right when he titled several of his works from the late sixties The True Artist is an Amazing Luminous Fountain.

  • Minimalism 1 Minimalism
    Minimalism 1 Minimalism Minimalism describes movements in various forms of art and design, especially visual art and music, where the work is stripped down to its most fundamental features. As a specific movement in the arts it is identified with developments in post–World War II Western Art, most strongly with American visual arts in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Prominent artists associated with this movement include Donald Judd, John McLaughlin, Agnes Martin, Dan Flavin, Robert Morris, Anne Truitt, and Frank Stella. It is rooted in the reductive aspects of Modernism, and is often interpreted as a reaction against Abstract expressionism and a bridge to Postmodern art practices. The terms have expanded to encompass a movement in music which features repetition and iteration, as in the compositions of La Monte Young, Terry Riley, Steve Reich, Philip Glass, and John Adams. Minimalist compositions are sometimes known as systems music. (See also Postminimalism). The term "minimalist" is often applied colloquially to designate anything which is spare or stripped to its essentials. It has also been used to describe the plays and novels of Samuel Beckett, the films of Robert Bresson, the stories of Raymond Carver, and even the automobile designs of Colin Chapman. The word was first used in English in the early 20th century to describe the Mensheviks.[1] Minimalist design The term minimalism is also used to describe a trend in design and architecture where in the subject is reduced to its necessary elements. Minimalist design has been highly influenced by Japanese traditional design and architecture. In addition, the work of De Stijl artists is a major source of reference for this kind of work.

  • University of Nsw Harry Seidler Unsw Talk 1 Interactions
    UNIVERSITY OF NSW HARRY SEIDLER UNSW TALK 1 INTERACTIONS: ARCHITECTURE AND THE VISUAL ARTS 10 APRIL 1980 INTRODUCTION [0.00] Sydney architect, Harry Seidler, was appointed visiting professor in architecture at the University of New South Wales for the first semester of 1980. He was born in Vienna in 1923. After studies in England he graduated from the University of Manitoba in Canada. Later, he did post graduate work at Harvard University under the founder of the Bauhaus, Walter Gropius, and studied design under the painter, Josef Albers. In 1948 Seidler started to practice in Sydney and the many buildings he has completed since then have earned him an international reputation. Amongst his best known buildings is Sydney’s Blues Point Tower, Australia Square and the MLC Centre and Canberra’s Trade Group offices. A recent overseas work is the Australian Embassy in Paris. In this lecture Seidler deals with the interactions between all the visual arts and architecture and the historic basis for this interdependence which he feels should be a guiding and motivating force in architectural design. Modern architecture, as we have come to understand it, has had a history of just over three quarters of a century now. In spite of that, it cannot be said that there is any consensus of opinion about its viability. There’s always been a reluctance on the part of those who practise it and those who criticise it to state any dogma. Those dogmas that have been stated such as “This new architecture is functional, it is logical, it responds to the new technology” are rather obvious and rather facile descriptions of what it’s really all about.

  • Traces of the Bauhaus in Sydney: Modernist Heritage and Artistic Experiment
    P R E S S R E L E A S E 31 October 2014 Traces of the Bauhaus in Sydney: Modernist heritage and artistic experiment The international exhibition and publication project “Expanded Architecture” is devoted to Australian architectural icons of modernism and casts current artistic perspectives on Bauhaus ideas and its advocates How can temporary artistic interventions be used to think about and experience architecture in new and different ways? That question will be pursued on November 7th, 2014, as the project “Expanded Architecture” presents the exhibition “Temporal Formal at Seidler City” as part of this year’s Sydney Architecture Festival. For one night, the lobbies of three architectural icons of modernism in Sydney’s central business district will become the subject of artistic exploration and the scene for art installations, sound experiments and performances. On the next day, a research symposium will be held by the curators – Dr. Claudia Perren, Director of the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation, and Sarah Breen Lovett, artist from Sydney – at the Museum of Sydney. Three of the most important buildings of Australian modernist architecture will be the focus. The high-rise office buildings Australia Square (1965-67), Grosvenor Place (1982-88) and Castlereagh Centre (1984-89) were designed by the Austrian-born Australian architect Harry Seidler. Harry Seidler, a student of Bauhaus founder Walter Gropius, is considered one of the pioneers of modernism in Australia. For his buildings, Seidler (1923–2006) frequently worked together with artists like Bauhaus master Josef Albers, along with American greats such as Frank Stella, Sol LeWitt, and Norman Carlberg, thereby drawing inspiration from their treatments of geometries and patterns.

The iconic Art Deco facade and black glass “Charles Fish & Sons” sign out front directly point to the building’s time as a department store, but less visible are the many other ventures it has held. Deliberate research into the space introduced us to the building’s surprising history as one of the nation’s first dental schools. Impromptu conversations with local residents informed us of countless other projects once housed inside: a clothing store, a church, a campaign office, a popup exhibition space, and a nightclub.
