# OPEN LATE ON FIRST THURSDAYS PREVIEW 9 abmeyerwood.com Patti Warashina: New Works ABMEYER + WOOD FINE ART, SEATTLE WA, May 5-31, 2016 Patti Warashina was a classmate of Chuck Close at the Universit y o f Washington, and like him, she has become an internationally celebrated artist, in her case a renowned ceramic sculptor. In this exhibit, she debuts a breakthrough body of work created during her residency at the Museum of Glass in Tacoma. After her pioneering efforts at expanding the scale of ceramics into life-sized figures led her to numerous public art commis - sions and extensive museum and gallery exhibitions, she turned to printmaking and bronze. Professor of art emerita at the University of Washington, she has influenced several gen - erations of students and follow - ers through hundreds of work - shops, lectures and interviews. N O S

Gallery director Jonathan Wood displays the new sculptures using glass elements with other all- clay objects, installations and shelf pieces. Warashina has also ventured quite aggressively into print - making at several invitational residencies; some of these works will also be on view. Warashina’s recent work has explored social and political imagery, such as the destructive nature of political gos - sip in an age of social media. Her Surrealist roots seem distant, indeed.

10 PREVIEW I APRIL/MAY 2016 VIGNETTES • April/May 2016 Alberta ROBIN LAuReNCe SEAN CAULFIELD: THE FLOOD Art Gallery of Alberta, Edmonton, Feb 6-Aug 14 This acclaimed Edmonton artist has been commis - Sean Caulfield sioned to create a site-specific installation for the gallery’s Man - ning Hall. Rather than composing a large-scale image out of indi - vidual woodblock prints, Caulfield has created a mural out of the hand-carved woodblock panels themselves. The Flood addresses the impact of industrialization and technological developments on the natural environment and challenges viewers to take responsi - bility for shaping a sustainable future. BLUE LINE Southern Alberta Art Gallery, Lethbridge, Feb 13-Apr 17 The title of this group show refers to the non-photo blue pencil Jill Stanton that comic book artists employ in laying out and refining their images before finalizing them for reproduction. Focusing on the process of creation, this group show features works by a range of underground comic artists, including Robert Crumb, Aline Kominsky-Crumb, Guy Delisle, Jill Stanton and Connor Willumsen. It also looks at the challenging themes and narra - tives that underground comics have espoused. EMBRACING CANADA: LANDSCAPES FROM KRIEGHOFF TO THE GROUP OF SEVEN Glenbow, Calgary, Feb 20-May 29 Organized by the Vancouver Art Gallery, this touring exhibition explores the leading role the landscape subject played in Canadian painting William Percival Weston from the mid-19th to the mid-20th centuries. From early depic - tions of First Nations encampments in Quebec to farming scenes in rural Ontario, and from oil sketches of Algonquin Park to rep - resentations of the West Coast rainforest, the show illuminates the roles of both wilderness and pastoral in the construction of Cana - dian cultural identity.

JOHN EISLER: ( the cast ) Paul Kuhn Gallery, Calgary, Apr 2-30 A new series of large acrylic paintings on unstretched canvasses reveals this artist’s evolving engagement with abstract form and colour. From layered stripes and semicircles of bright, semi- transparent colour, Eisler has shifted to more complex composi - tions in which swipes, streaks and squiggles of white are layered over darker and more opaque colours. Suggestive of calli- John Eisler graphy, these action paintings are filled with visual incident. As in Eisler’s previous shows, some canvasses are mounted on wooden structures in the centre of the gallery. SVEA FERGUSON: LIKE AFFECTIONS Herringer Kiss Gallery, Cal - gary, Apr 28-May 21 Emerging artist Svea Ferguson creates abstracted figures by cutting and manipulating vinyl and linoleum flooring material. Through this unlikely sculptural medium, she evokes the draped, armoured or corseted human form, as well as anatomical representations of muscles and tendons. In reproduc - tion, these works have a strong graphic presence, as if they were illusionistic drawings. Ferguson’s sculptures appear in HK Incuba - tor, the gallery’s experimental and special projects space. Svea Ferguson preview-art.com PREVIEW 11 christineklassengallery.com Lisa Matthias: Remnants CHRISTINE KLASSEN GALLERY, CALGARY AB – Mar 24-May 7, 2016 A schism common to both Art and Science is that of the “lumper,” who seeks convergences, versus the “splitter,” who seeks differences in their respective subjects. The poet Ralph Waldo Emerson was a lumper, because he believed that the Universal Being running through him made him “part or particle of God”; the paleontologist Louis Leakey was a splitter, because the modern world demanded new discoveries. Artist Lisa Matthias’s method and conclusions place her somewhere in the middle. Before completing her MFA in studio prac - tice, Matthias worked as an ecologist. As such, she is familiar with the schism of lumping and split - ting both in the study of plant biology and in the common concepts and materials of art making. As her website says, “The idea that everything is part of a larger assemblage, emphasized by the recog - nition of patterns and relatedness across species and scales of life, is a central theme in [her] work.” Matthias’s current exhibition, Remnants , features a selection of large-scale black and white abstract images that owe as much to old - er methods of woodcut printing as they do to the more recent lens-based technologies. The new capabilities allow the artist to dig deeper into nature’s matrix for new patterns and tex - Lisa Matthias, Disentangle (2013), woodcut, chine collé [Christine Klassen tures.

Split into four eras, one floor for each, the Vancouver Art Gallery’s largest and most ambitious show in its 85- year history has visitors travel backwards in time as they ascend to the fourth floor.

Cruz employs a wide range of forms, images and materials to express the experience of Patrick Cruz being transplanted from one culture to another in an age of global - ization and material excess. His sculptures and paintings are accompanied by sound and video works by a number of collaborat - ing artists. NANITCH: EARLY PHOTOGRAPHS OF BRITISH COLUMBIA FROM THE LANGMANN COLLECTION Presentation House Gallery, North Vancouver, Mar 30-Jun 26 Drawing from a collection of more than 18,000 historic photographs recently donated to the UBC Library by the Langmann family, Nanitch reveals the role of the camera in Percy M. Smith Shoe Repair, 1339 Lonsdale constructing the colonial narrative of British Columbia. The show Avenue, North Vancouver, c. 1920 includes hand-coloured albumen prints, cartes de visite , stereograph cards and photogravures created between the 1860s and the early 20th century. Images range from First Nations canoes to shoe repair shops, and from fish-drying racks to clearcuts. BRIAN HOWELL: A SURVEY Winsor Gallery, Vancouver, Apr 2-26 As part of the Capture Photography Festival, this show spotlights Brian Howell’s distinctive vision and socially provocative practice. From celebrity impersonators and amateur wrestlers to the interi - ors of newspaper printing plants and the charred remains of a fire- ravaged forest, Howell finds meaning and metaphor in his often- Brian Howell marginalized subjects. His photographs unite documentary and conceptual impulses and, in doing so, successfully shift his work from photojournalism and editorial photography into the realm of fine art. HUGH HANSON DAVIDSON: A LIFE IN THE ARTS Kamloops Art Gallery, Kamloops, Apr 2-Jun 18 This exhibition celebrates the life and art collection of Hugh Hanson Davidson. Born in Montreal, Davidson spent much of his career as an arts administrator and music programmer in Canada and England. Quietly he collected contemporary art over the years, which he added to works he had inherited from his family. After retiring to the West Coast, he Randolph S. Hewton donated art and books to the KAG, and bequeathed the remainder of his collection to the gallery upon his death in 2014. ANGELA FAMA: WHAT IS LOVE BAF Gallery, Vancouver, Apr 7-May 14 For five months last year, Vancouver artist Angela Fama set out to examine individual definitions of love. Driving her “travelling RV studio” thousands of kilometres around Canada and the United States, she stopped in more than 20 locations and asked adults she encountered questions about the meaning of love. The stop- motion video she created from the audio recordings of their responses and the photographic portraits she shot at the same time are the basis of her intriguing exhibition. Angela Fama

British Columbia ROBIN LAuReNCe SYLVIA TAIT: WEST COAST SUITE Bau-Xi Gallery, Vancouver, Apr 9- 23 One of Vancouver’s foremost abstractionists, Sylvia Tait has created a series of emotionally and philosophically charged paint - ings on canvas and multimedia panels. Through a lexicon of par - titioned form, personal symbols, scraps of text and layers of rich Sylvia Tait colour, she expresses a lifetime of vivid experience, filtered through reflection and contemplation. Recently, Tait has been fragmenting and deconstructing her familiar visual components to metaphoric effect. In her own words, she is “breaking up larger colour blocks and blowing them away.” DAVID PIRRIE: MAPPING THE ROCKIES Ian Tan Gallery, Vancouver Apr 9-30 As someone who grew up on Vancouver’s North Shore and who is an avid climber and skier, David Pirrie brings intense physical experience to his mountain subject. However, his “por - traits” of individual mountains, removed from their surrounding David Pirrie ranges, are symbolic rather than literal. He overlays these images with grids of brightly coloured dots, alluding to Pop Art and reconfiguring traditional landscape tropes. Recently, his more abstract paintings have taken their inspiration from maps of the Rocky Mountains. ANDA KUBIS: TOUCH OF THE UNREAL Elissa Cristall Gallery, Van - couver, Apr 9-May 7 This Toronto-based artist creates abstract paintings using a computer rather than pigment-laden brushes. In her artist statement, she writes that her touch, “translated to the screen, explores the infinite possibilities of colour and simulated Anda Kubis form.” Kubis poses the playful and the improvisational against the considered and the analytical. She also explores the contemplative and meditative possibilities of painting against the hectic conditions of contemporary life. TIKO KERR: BODY LANGUAGE South Main Gallery, Vancouver, May 6-28 Those who know Tiko Kerr’s practice by his lively repre - sentational paintings will be surprised by his paper-cut collages. Much more streamlined in style and compressed in content, they address ideas of perception, especially around pattern recognition and the ways in which our readings of people and situations are shaped by our cultural and social conditioning. Kerr’s highly Tiko Kerr abstracted figures, stranded in bare, geometric landscapes, ask us to consider how we interpret visual cues.

UNSETTLED SITES SFU Gallery, Burnaby, May 7-Jul 29 This three- person show examines ideas of belonging and dispossession from the point of view of both settler and indigenous cultures. Featur - ing installation, photographic and video works by Marian Penner Bancroft, Wanda Nanibush and Tania Willard, Unsettled Sites addresses colonialism and its contravention, describing a world haunted by the ghosts of repression and displacement, past and present. The show challenges us with questions such as “Can one both belong to a place and remain unsettled?” Tania Willard preview-art.com PREVIEW 25 http://surrey.ca/culture-recreation/1537.aspx Pau lo Majano: I Was Here SURREY ART GALLERY, SURREY BC – Apr 9-Jun 12, 2016 Although trained as a painter, Paulo Majano has, for the past 10 years, combined his interest in figuration with technology-based forms of presen - tation and interaction. The result is a recent branch of New Media known as augmented reality. Whereas virtual reality replaces the real world with a simulated version, augmented reality shows us the world we are familiar with as well as giving us an opportunity to explore it further through com - puter-assisted machinery. For I Was Here , Majano sets his sights on everyday events in outdoor public spaces, most of them in parks in Surrey, BC. Once a location was selected, Majano would take its picture and a three- dimensional scan of its ele - ments. The resulting image carries within it a “latent image – a three-dimensional photographic scene that, when revealed, like the latent thought in Freud’s theory of dreams, offers potentially different narratives and new layers of meaning .” As is often the case with interactive work, engagement requires more than an inquir - ing mind. For those eager to jump in, a smartphone or tablet is needed, as well as an “artist-developed augmented Paulo Majano, The Picnic Party – Redwood Park (2014), 3-D photograph [Surrey Art Gallery, reality application.” But once Surrey BC, Apr 9-Jun 12] these machines are in place, even the most familiar location has the potential to appear both new and unusual.

preview-art.com PREVIEW 27 nanaimoartgallery.com Ron Tran: Somewhat Mine: A Nanaimo Retrospective NANAIMO ART GALLERY, NANAIMO BC – Mar 11-May 14, 2 016 For this inventive exhibition, Van - couver-based interdisciplinary artist Ron Tran adapted for the city of Nanaimo a number of site-spe - cific projects that he had previously mounted in international locations. To do this, Tran moved to Nanaimo as a guest of the Nanaimo Art Gallery. More recent exhibitions at the NAG have emphasized Nanaimo as it has come to know itself (e.g., through a history of resource extraction). In Tran’s exhibition, the gallery chose a visitor to “read” the city aloud to its residents. Tran identifies structural similarities that link Nanaimo to other cities in which he has lived and worked. The result is an exhibition that challenges our notions of cultural relativism by emphasizing how, in our globalized moment, the world is no longer a collection of autonomous countries or atomized social spaces, but a tightly wound system of privately con - trolled economic relations. Ron Tran, Untitled (2008), photographic collage [Nanaimo Art Gallery, A number of the exhibition’s works Nanaimo BC, Mar 11-May 14 ] were made by or in conjunction with local artists, community members and the exhibition’s commercial partners, many of whom are long-serving independent businesses.

The Case of the Ambiguity of Authenticity A few years ago, a client asked me to identify the creator of the two paintings pictured below. Both works were oil on canvas and monogrammed “SYM” in the lower right. One showed the date “89,” meaning 1989. Generally speaking, a signed or monogrammed painting is accepted as having been painted by the individual signing or placing his or her monogram on the work, and is thus thought to be an authentic piece. There are other accepted phrases that reference degrees of authenticity, such as “attributed to,” “in the manner of,” “school of” and “bearing the signature of.” Each identifier represents a hierar - chically qualitative opinion as to authenticity, based mostly on connoisseurship. The two paintings shown here are reminiscent of the late 19th century works of Alfred de Breanski, Sr. Although their subject matter, composition, choice of palette and point of view are similar to those in de Breanski’s works, they appear to have been executed much later, as de Breanski’s signature is absent, and the monogram “SYM” and the date of 1989 appears in its stead. Signed “SYM” oil on canvas, 16 x 20 inches Research has since indicated that the artist Sofronio (Sym) Ylanan Mendoza used the mono - gram “SYM” to sign his paintings. Born in 1934 in Cebu City, Philippines, Sym immigrated to Canada in 1981, settling in Richmond, BC. In order to verify authenticity, I contacted the artist’s daughter and asked her to confirm that her father had created these paintings. I received a reply a short time later, informing me that these pieces were not by her father. The only conclusion I could reach was that someone had added the “SYM” monogram to these paint - ings not executed by Mendoza in order to present them as authentic when they were not. Recent works by Mendoza are stylistically very different, although it would appear that his earlier works did share some stylistic similarities with these ones. So the problem becomes how to reconcile the variety of relativistic permutations that are possible when calling a work of art authentic. Is it enough to accept the artist’s contention, or did the artist have another agenda for perhaps deliberately denying he painted them? The contemporary philosopher Bruno LaTour has theorized that there are no facts, such as “authen - ticity,” that are separate from the subject’s fabrication. He suggests that facts are relational to the context of their production, and are similar to the act of fetishizing. LaTour seeks to free us from the tyranny of the scientific, subject/object “mumbo-jumbo” particular to Western civilization, in favour of an authenticity that depends on other factors, such as culture and experience. So in this sense, the signature or monogram on a painting fetishizes the artwork by imbuing it with the belief of authenticity. It is no longer just paint on a canvas, but a culturally significant artefact that has special economic and cultural powers because of the signature.

# OPEN LATE ON FIRST THURSDAYS PREVIEW 31 glenbow.org Walter May: One New Work: Object Lessons GLENBOW, CALGARY AB – Feb 27-May 29, 2 016 Guest curated by Nancy Tousley, One New Work is a year-long sequence of exhibitions featuring three artists. As the name suggests, the exhibition calls for each artist to debut a new work “in the company of other works or objects selected to set it within a context.” These works or objects can include past works by the artist, preliminary works or works from various col - lections. For Tousley, the idea is to “illuminate aspects of the artist’s practice by emphasizing them.” For its first iteration, Walter May gives us Object Lessons , an exhibition of sculptural assemblages built with objects the artist has gathered over the course of his daily life. In one work, a colony of blackened ham - mers hangs from a horizontal ledge; in another, the support shelf from a paint-splattered easel is placed ver - tically against a wall. The “one new work” is Still Life With Canes (2016). Here, May salvaged the remains of a recently fallen tree he had befriended on his neighbourhood strolls, and fastened them to a gur - ney-like table with the curved ends of walking canes. Although the work resonates beyond the sum T S I T R A of its parts, it functions E H T

Founded in 1984 as a nonprofit dedicated to preserving Tom of Finland’s iconic homo-erotic art, its mandate has since expanded to “offer a safe haven for all erotic art,” and, more recently, “educating the public as to the cultural merits of erotic art, and to promoting healthier, more tolerant attitudes about sexuality.” How the Tom of Finland Foundation became the subject of a sculpture, print, text and film instal - lation began in 2012, when UK artist Patrick Staff mounted an exhibition in Los Angeles. In a 2015 interview with Time Out London , Staff recalls, “What struck me most was how the foundation is basically a big commune. It’s a normal house on a suburban street.” Staff’s film is less a documen - T S I

These issues are brought together to form a series of “multi - media scenerios that ask visitors [to the exhibition] to stop and think [about] what they want in their hometown.” Some of Your Future Home’s case Can we get closer to the water? , 3-D model of the “Harbour Deck” proposed by studies include the post-CP Rail Arbu - HCMA Architecture + Design, presenting a dynamic strategy for the creation of a tus Lands, the post-ECUAD Granville series of public spaces that reconnect people with the water [Museum of Island and “changes to how we heat Vancouver, Vancouver BC, Jan 21-May 15] buildings downtown.” Among the exhi - bition’s more recognizable participants are architects Andrew Gruft, Richard Henriquez, Leslie Van Duzer and Marta Farevaag.

In this instance, black box the - atrical props are fused with white cube sculptures. Also, like her 2011 Access exhibition, the videos are based on scenarios common to all of us, whether experienced while winding down in front of our screens at the work - place or at home. “I’ve always been interested in the constructs of the - atre and theatricality drawn from pop culture,” Milton told Canadian Art magazine during her 2011 Western Front residency. On the narrative tensions found in audition-based programs like American Idol or The Apprentice , Milton adds, “these types of power dynamics are also reflected in art world relationships, between artist and curator and between viewer and artist.” In the 2010 documentary The Future of Art , philosopher Boris Groys is asked about today’s artist, to which he replies, “Professional art only consists in rep - resenting oneself. In other words, an artist is someone who does nothing more than cultivate [their] own image.” While it’s true that we’re in the midst of a bull - Elizabeth Milton, High Kicks Into the Light Forever and ish image economy, some, such as Milton, have man - Ever and Ever (2016), production still of a video aged to corral that image and hold it still, if only to see it installation [grunt gallery, Vancouver BC, May 27-Jun 25 ] more critically.

preview-art.com PREVIEW 47 polychromefinearts.com Marcia Perkins: Still Life Paintings POLYCHROME FINE ART, VICTORIA BC – April 21-May 5, 2016

Marcia Perkins, Killdeer and Morandi (2013), oil on panel [Polychrome Fine Art, Victoria BC, Apr 21-May 5] Marcia Perkins won the Kingston Prize in 2005 for a piece called Self-Portrait . In this 12" x 12" paint - ing, we see a middle-aged woman staring unflinchingly out at the world with a look somewhere between peaceful and arrogant. She’s very grey: her hair, the shadows on her skin, her sweatshirt and apron are all grey. On the wall immediately behind her head is a bright, primary-coloured poster of birds sitting on a wedge of watermelon. The arrangement sounds simple enough, but the conflict set up within this composition is magical – paintings like this make us think. The paintings exhibited at Polychrome are still lifes, oil on panel, measuring 8" x 36" from a series called Twenty Treasures . Perkins says that “each painting in this series depicts 20 small objects – the treasures of a life lived and recorded.” The objects in question include eggshells, seashells, skulls, breakable bric-a-brac and various other domestic ornaments, all arranged mantelpiece style. These objects are beautifully drawn and painted to a high degree of realism; they are curious and evocative in a way that is both familiar and historical. One thinks of Mother’s Day gifts and also of Jean-Baptiste Oudry while gazing at these remarkable paintings. Christine Clark

preview-art.com PREVIEW 49 catrionajeffries.com Liz Magor CATRIONA JEFFRIES GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – Mar 5-April 23, 2016 The recent retirement of Liz Magor from the Emily Carr University of Art and Design has had many reflecting on her work in the classroom. Not since Ian Wallace’s retirement in 1998 has ECUAD known such a rigorous and influential educator. Indeed, if Wallace shaped photo-conceptualists from Jeff Wall to Kelly Wood, Magor did something similar for artists Geoffrey Farmer, Brian Jungen and Isabelle Pauwels. The upside of Magor’s retirement means that she has more time in the studio and an increasingly busy exhibition schedule, with stops as far afield as Marseille, France, and Milan, Italy. The rich quality of her work since leaving teaching has many of Magor’s admirers quietly wishing she had actually left sooner. Whether it’s something as natural as a tree trunk or as cultural as a folded stack of towels, Magor has had a long and abiding interest in “the wrapper” and how we look at what we see. In this new work, many of the wrappers are cardboard boxes made from polymerized gyp - sum. As for the stuffed toys they support, none Liz Magor, The Good Shepherd (2016), polymerized gypsum, wool, look like they came from these boxes. Instead, plastic bags and sheets, cardboard [Catriona Jeffries Gallery, Vancouver BC, Mar 5-April 23] the boxes look like they were stripped from recently purchased flatscreen TVs and laid out over downtown sidewalks, where stuffed animals are sometimes sold.

Knowing the reasons behind dimensional changes in paper (as discussed in Parts 1 and 2 of this series) can help us reach accommodations with changes that are inherent to its creation or envi - ronmentally unavoidable. Foreknowledge can also help us prevent undesirable and unnecessary distortions. In this article, we explore measures that can be taken to prevent or slow down dimensional changes. Prevent changes in moisture content For owners or artworks that cannot tolerate any dimensional changes, sealed framing or storage sytems are required. The high-end solution is to hermetically seal the art in a case or storage package with an inert gas. A lower-tech method is to use glass and aluminum vapour barriers to seal the art and framing package in an environment conditioned to the Minoxy® microclimate framing enclosure, www.minoxy.com required relative humidity (normally 40% to 50%). A flexible aluminum- polyethylene laminate (i.e., Marvelseal) wraps around the reverse of the framing package and is attached to the front of the glass with adhesive. Buffer changes in moisture content Conventional frames, especially those with plastic backboards (e.g., Coroplast) can mitigate normal humidity/temperature cycles and allow the paper to adjust slowly. Storage folders and boxes also buffer external environmental changes. Allow paper to move Choose framing and storage methods and materials that accommodate natural movement. Allow room for expansion. Overall mounting In special circumstances, it may be desirable to keep an artwork flat by overall adhesion to a rigid back - board. Such a decision is usually made by the artist or owner, in consultation with a conservator. Sta - ble, and preferably reversible adhesives should be used. Protect from water disasters Choose storage and display locations wisely (i.e., not in the basement or under water pipes), have a dis - aster plan in place and, when practical, use waterproof or water-resistant enclosures. Appreciate and enjoy One of paper’s many charms is the third dimension created by media and environmental history. The puckering and draws caused by strokes of watercolour, the light undulations and the gentle edge cockles that appear in response to seasonal changes are part of the subtle pleasure we derive from paper.

58 PREVIEW I APRIL/MAY 2016 thenewgallery.org This is My City – View From the Inside: Courage Journey THE NEW GALLERY, +15 WINDOW, ARTS COMMONS, 205 8TH AVE SE, CALGARY AB – Apr 3-May 26, 2016 Much of contemporary culture is linked to the growth of cities. Yet for every time-saving innovation, or a life made easier, there is a displacement, or a life that is put at risk. For some, the city is a shining example of how far our civilization has come; for others, its buildings provide little more than a warm wall to lean against, or a door to line up at while waiting for a hot meal. There is a large literature that links the growth of cities with a decline in affordable housing. Yet cities are doing little beyond providing the irreducible minimum of “emergency” shelter, food and clothing. This is My City, a collective that grew out of an artist mentorship program launched by the City of Calgary’s Arts and Culture Department in 2008, is working beyond this minimum. View From the Inside: Courage Journey is Wendy Passmore-Godfrey, WP Puppet Theatre mask, mixed media [The a puppetry-based project that aims to New Gallery, +15 Window, Arts Commons, 205 8th Ave SE, Calgary AB, empower those “seeking to build resiliency, Apr 3-May 26] create community and raise their self- worth.” At the centre of the exhibition are 40 masks made by project participants. The subtitle, Courage Journey , “came from its participants’ responses as they went outside their comfort zone, and were vulnerable.” Michael Turner

60 PREVIEW I APRIL/MAY 2016 # OPEN LATE ON FIRST THURSDAYS VIGNETTES • April/May 2016 Oregon ALLYN CANTOR JAY BACKSTRAND: SELECTED WORKS 1968–2008 Laura Russo Gallery, Portland, Apr 7–30 Throughout his career, Jay Backstrand has formu - lated complex, enigmatic imagery from ongoing explorations and reformulations of art, history and contemporary life. Showcasing works that span 40 years, Backstrand engages in an amalgam of sub - jects, juxtaposing disparate images into compositions that can at times Jay Backs trand be unsettling. He often renders human subjects with intense defini - tion and a high-chroma palette, igniting an overall restlessness. BARBARA STERNBERGER: INVISIBLE PRESENCE Elizabeth Leach Gallery, Portland, Apr 7–30 Bellingham painter Barbara Sternberger creates sensitive, fluid abstractions that combine formal elements of color, light and space with psychological and conceptual aspects of the physical act of nonrepresentational painting. The artist balances intention with intuition, patience with chance, comfort with bravery. In recent years, Sternberger has begun creating her own paints from scratch. This shift in materials is evident in both her thoughtful, min - Barbara Sternberger imalist compositions and her subdued, earthy palette. JOVENCIO DE LA PAZ: BOY WHO STARED AT THE SUN PDX Window Project, Portland, Apr 2–30 Jovencio de la Paz is an artist and writer who works with textile and fiber processes. Now returning to print production after several years, he’s creating screen-printed works that continue his pursuit of colour, form and materiality as vessels for sym - bolic narrative. He’s moving away from the rectilinear forms and lim - itations of cloth seen in his previous work, and using cut-out poly - styrene surfaces to create vibrantly patterned pieces such as Boy who stared at the sun . Jovencio de la Paz PHYLLIS TROWBRIDGE: RECENT LANDSCAPE PAINTINGS Michael Parsons Fine Art, Portland, Apr 6–30 Quiet observation is at the core of Phyllis Trowbridge’s artistic approach. The Oregon artist, known for her plein-air landscape painting, renders scenes with a warm familiar - ity that evokes a passion and reverence for her environment. The unpredictable climate in the moody Pacific Northwest poses a chal - lenge for any artist working outdoors here. Directness with her sub - ject helps Trowbridge create inspired paintings that are genuine and inviting, balancing emotion with representation. NELSON SANDGREN: AN ARTIST’S LIFE Hallie Ford Museum, Salem, Phyllis Trowbridge May 14–Jul 17 This retrospective celebrates the work of Nelson Sandgren (1917–2006), an important Oregon artist and educator who taught at Oregon State University for more than 35 years. Through - out his long career, Sandgren was both a painter and a printmaker, with a strong interest in landscapes, the sea and travel images. His expressive style in both oils and watercolors shows a painterly confi - dence, rendering the essence of a subject through simple, dynamic brushstrokes. In Portland, an exhibit at Michael Parsons Fine Art throughout May also showcases decades of Sandgren’s art. Nelson Sandgren

In particular, he cleverly adapted abstract trends, such as Minimalism and Serialism, to fracture and revolutionize a genre of representational painting – portraits. This is the first time since he graduated from Everett High School in 1957 that Close’s art has been exhibited in his home county. Hailed as a key transitional figure in contemporary art, Close has influenced countless artists involved in portraiture, psychological expression ism and complex sequen - T S I T R

B y s I Ros PORTLAND VIGNETTES • April/May 2016 Washington MATTHeW KANGAS EDVARD MUNCH AND THE SEA Tacoma Art Museum, Tacoma, Apr 9- Jul 17 The Norwegian Edvard Munch, who Kenneth Clark called the greatest northern European artist since Dürer, hasn’t had a sig - nificant museum show in this area for more than 30 years – until now. Munch’s greatness lies in his preceding van Gogh as the father of Expressionism, and his chosen subjects of death, horror, anguish, Edvard Munch venereal disease and prostitution, which confronted the Victorian era with its moral hypocrisy. The authorities shut down his first show in Berlin in 1893, when he was 29 years old. Come and see what all the fuss was about. CRIS BRUCH: DISPATCH Greg Kucera Gallery, Seattle, Apr 7-May 21 Following last month's survey of Cris Bruch at the Frye Art Museum, several ambitious new on-site commissions, one would expect this grouping to combine small to mid- and large-scale sculptures of vari - Cris Bruch ous metals, off-shelf materials and ingenious configurations. Bruch has completed numerous large-scale public art projects, however, which may have deterred development of more complex studio-scale sculptures. His stand-alone abstract pieces of a decade ago were acclaimed in Germany; this may be a return to those achievements. ANNE SIEMS: NEW WORKS Woodside/Braseth Gallery, Seattle, Apr 28- Jun 2 Mixing ornamental and decorative motifs from illuminated manuscripts with forest scenes, Siems echoes the darker side of the Brothers Grimm, drawing viewers into a mysterious world of women and children, animals, plants and an aura of dreamlike consciousness. The Berlin-born artist lived in Argentina before moving to the Unit - ed States in 1991. She now lives in Seattle. Anne Siems ANDREA JOYCE HEIMER Linda Hodges Gallery, Seattle, May 5-28 Cheery and creepy, satirical and savage, outdoor and indoor, multi - ple-figure vignettes chronicling death by automobile, crucified scare - crows, a lonely male exhibitionist and well-liked neighbours engag - ing in kinky sex – these are some of the themes upon which Heimer develops her multifaceted ethos. Educated in Great Falls, Montana, Andrea Heimer has accepted invitations to group shows in folk-art- only galleries in New York, New Jersey and Texas, and has been asked to show her work at the Charlottenborg Kunsthal’s prestigious spring salon in Copenhagen, Denmark. Andrea Joyce Heimer INSPIRING BEAUTY: 50 YEARS OF EBONY FASHION FAIR Bellevue Arts Museum, Bellevue, May 20-Aug 14 BAM director Stefano Catalani salutes Le Style de Shaft in a celebration of Ebony magazine’s half-cen - tury of black fashion coverage. This show highlights men’s clothing as well as women’s. Once Yves Saint Laurent hired African models for his 1974 couture runway show, black fashion influences were finally seen both abroad and at home. Dior, Ungaro and Missoni join African-American giants Stephen Burrows and Patrick Kelly in an extravaganza of flash and panache.

Tilmann Grawe preview-art.com PREVIEW 67 portlandartmuseum.org 2016 Contemporary Northwest Art Awards PORTLAND ART MUSEUM, PORTLAND OR – Feb 13-May 8, 2016 The Contemporary Northwest Art Awards (CNAA) evolved from the Portland Art Museum’s Oregon Biennial celebrations. The current program, now in its fourth year, provides a small number of exceptional artists with both monetary awards and museum exhibition opportunities. Through an extensive process of application reviews and studio visits by Portland Art Museum curator Bonnie Laing-Malcolmson and curatorial advisor Jessica Hunter-Larsen of IDEA Space at Colorado College, 24 finalists were selected from more than 200 nominees from Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming, and 7 winners were chosen. Several of the artists are part of the established gallery scenes in Portland and Seattle. Samantha Wall of Portland, for example, who was singled out for the $10,000 Arlene Schnitzer Prize, uses large- scale drawings to reflect on multira - cial experiences. Dana Lynn Louis, also from Portland, is known for creating immersive installations that incorporate drawing, glass, light and shadow to engage space. The paintings of Seattle-based Helen O’Toole capture a perfectly coalesced moodiness in deep, vast abstractions that recall her native Ireland. Willem Volkersz of Boze - man, Montana, has a Pop Art style that incorporates neon and found objects with kitschy painted sub - jects. Other noted Seattle artists round out this exhibit—Victoria Haven uses juxtapositions of Lead Pencil Studio, Afforest (2015), charcoal, graphite, ink and paint on paper [Portland extracted text in a series of spare Art Museum, Portland OR, Feb 13-May 8] conceptual prints, while the duo Lead Pencil Studio and their multidisciplinary works and Akio Takamori’s ceramic sculptures all con - tribute to the diversity of art presented here.

MELT: EVA SKÖLD WESTERLIND is a fine-art photography book that was released last fall. The beautiful publication contains 48 four-colour plates derived from the artist’s wanderings in the Cascade Mountains, capturing changing natural forms during winter’s transition to spring. Sköld Westerlind’s vantage point is toward the ground, looking at decomposition, regeneration and sublime moments in nature. Soft snowmelt forms reveal moist, earthy textures in these poetic images. The artist began exploring nature in her native Sweden; she currently lives and works in the Seattle area. Hardcover, 72 pp., $50 USD. Available at G. Gibson Gallery, 206-587-4033.

These include rare old Northwest Coast First Nations masks, paintings by Emily Carr and recent photographs and mixed-media works by Stan Douglas, Tim Lee, Marianne Nicolson and Brian Jungen.

THE ART OF PETER ASPELL catalogues a two-part exhibition recently presented at the Richmond Art Gallery and the West Vancouver Museum. Like the shows, the book surveys paintings the artist produced in the late 1990s and early 2000s. These works reveal Aspell’s Fauvist and Expressionist influences, his interest in myths, archetypes and the art of pre-Industrial peoples, and his machine-age anxieties. With essays by curators Rachel Rosenfield Lafo and Darrin Morrison. Hardcover, 64 pp., $25 CAD. Available at Richmond Art Gallery, 604-247-8300, and West Vancouver Museum, 604-925-7295.

More than 100 pieces tell the story of how indigo dyeing has been used in different cultures throughout history. The exhibit includes a silk court robe from China, an array of Japanese kimonos, ancient fragments from Peru and Egypt and resist-dyed cloths from Africa and Indonesia. The exhibit showcases many uses for indigo- dyed textiles. A magnificent set of recently con - served Belgian tapestries will be unveiled, show - ing how indigo has been used to create difficult pictorial subject matter. Bedding covers ( futonji ) from Japan and two contemporary American quilts show a more common role for decorative textiles, while Chinese silk court embroideries show the colour blue as a symbol of leadership. An immersive installation by American artist Rowland Ricketts at the Asian Art Muse - um, which includes a sound piece by Norbert Herber, adds a contemporary component to the Mood Indigo exhibit.
