[email protected] Theo Wujcik: Cantos
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Lashonda Curry 727-896-266, ext. 236 813-447-1752 (c) [email protected] Theo Wujcik: Cantos Brings to Life Epic Literary Work A series by the late, prominent Ybor City artist features larger-than-life paintings inspired by Dante’s Inferno ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (March 29, 2019) – One of Tampa Bay’s best-known artists, Theo Wujcik (1936-2014), spent a decade creating a series drawn from the dark and profound literary classic, Dante’s Inferno. Now, those extraordinary paintings are the theme for Theo Wujcik: Cantos, a special exhibition organized by the Museum of Fine Arts, St. Petersburg and inspired by two works in its collection. Gates of Hell (1987) and Canto II (1997) are centered around Inferno, the first part of the epic poem Divine Comedy by Italian poet Dante Alighieri (1265–1321). The painting Gates of Hell was acquired by the MFA in 2017, but has never been publicly shown at a museum in the Tampa Bay area until now. Other art institutions that own Wujcik’s work include the Art Institute of Chicago; Detroit Institute of Arts; Museum of Modern Art, NY; National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. and San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. The exhibition is on view April 13 through June 2, 2019. Addressing select cantos from the poem, the 10 paintings on view—many of them epically scaled— range from 1987–1997, and showcase Wujcik’s literal and symbolic interpretation of the captivating journey of Dante through Hell, guided by the ancient Roman poet Virgil. Many artists have been inspired by the moral drama of Dante’s Inferno, including English poet and painter William Blake (1757–1827) and French illustrator Gustave Doré (1832–1883). -
Irving Sandler
FROM THE ARCHIVES: HANS HOFMANN: THE PEDAGOGICAL MASTER By Irving Sandler May 30, 1973 Irving Sandler died on June 2, 2018 at the age of 92. A frequent contributor to A.i.A., Sandler was best known for chronicling the rise and the aftermath of Abstract Expressionism. One of his most significant articles for A.i.A., the impact of Hans Hofmann, who taught such artists as Helen Frankenthaler and Allan Kaprow, thereby influencing not only second- and third-generation Ab Ex painters but other developments in American art after 1945. Sandler highlights Hofmann’s interest in the deep traditions of European art, and his belief that the best abstract painting continues its manner of modeling the world. “It was in this cubic quality, this illusion of mass and space, that the man-centered humanist tradition—or what could be saved of it—was perpetuated,” Sandler wrote, summarizing a central tenet of Hofmann’s teachings. The full essay, from our May/June 1973 issue, is presented below. In June we re-published Sandler’s essay “The New Cool-Art,” on the rise of Minimalism. —Eds. As both a painter and a teacher Hans Hofmann played a germinal part in the development of advanced American art for more than thirty years. This article will deal only with his pedagogical role—a topic chosen with some trepidation, for to treat an artist as a teacher is often thought to demean his stature as an artist. The repute of Hofmann’s painting has suffered in the past because of this bias, but no longer, since he is now firmly and deservedly established as a pathfinding master of Abstract Expressionism. -
Alberto Giacometti, Herbert Matter, Matthew Monahan, Jonathan Silver
Alberto Giacometti, Herbert Matter, Matthew Monahan, Jonathan Silver Nicole Klagsbrun is pleased to present an exhibition featuring Alberto Giacometti (1901–66), Herbert Matter (1907–84), Jonathan Silver (1937–92), and Matthew Monahan (1972–), who together share a clear set of existential interests in the human figure, ambiguity, and visual play. On view are photographs from Matter’s early-1960s black-and-white series documenting Giacometti’s celebrated, exceedingly tall and thin statues. After 1945, Giacometti ceased producing small experimental figures and began to focus on over-lifesize works. The surfaces of these sculptures are fractured and rough, never smooth like a Rodin. By 1947, three main themes had emerged in Giacometti’s art: the walking man, the standing woman, and the bust or head—which are all present in these haunting images. Matter and Giacometti became fast friends after meeting in 1950, when Pierre Matisse commissioned Matter to document Giacometti’s work in exhibition at Matisse’s gallery in New York. In a letter to Matter from 1961, Giacometti wrote: I think about [the photographs] every day and now I am impatient to tell you how elated and happy I have been to see the whole series of marvelous photographs. I could not stop looking at them, picking them up one by one and starting all over again, remarking at the great joy they have given me. They are by far the most beautiful photographs that have been made of my things, and, most important, at the same time they have a reality in themselves; each one is a creation in itself, one more beautiful than the other.1 A designer and a photographer, Matter left his position at Knoll to concentrate on publishing a book of these photographs. -

Page 1 Arthur B. Carles papers (MS.050) Historical note Arthur B. Carles (1882-1952) was one of the leading exponents of modern painting to emerge from, and remain in, Philadelphia. In 1901, and from 1903-07, he studied at the Pennsylvania Academy. At the Academy, Carles won two Cresson Travel Scholarships that allowed him to travel to Europe in the summer of 1905, and again in June of 1906, when he commenced a three-year stay. The American painter Alfred Maurer introduced Carles to modern European art. It was also through Maurer that Carles met the collectors Gertrude and Leo Stein. While in Europe, Carles became close friends with the painter and photographer Edward Steichen. He was also profoundly influenced by the expressionist work of Henri Matisse. -

Not for the Uncommitted: the Alliance of Figurative Artists, 1969–1975 By
Not for the Uncommitted: The Alliance of Figurative Artists, 1969–1975 By Emily D. Markert Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in Curatorial Practice California College of the Arts April 22, 2021 Not for the Uncommitted: The Alliance of Figurative Artists, 1969–1975 Emily Markert California College of the Arts 2021 From 1969 through the early 1980s, hundreds of working artists gathered on Manhattan’s Lower East Side every Friday at meetings of the Alliance of Figurative Artists. The art historical canon overlooks figurative art from this period by focusing on a linear progression of modernism towards medium specificity. However, figurative painters persisted on the periphery of the New York art world. The size and scope of the Alliance and the interests of the artists involved expose the popular narrative of these generative decades in American art history to be a partial one promulgated by a few powerful art critics and curators. This exploration of the early years of the Alliance is divided into three parts: examining the group’s structure and the varied yet cohesive interests of eleven key artists; situating the Alliance within the contemporary New York arts landscape; and highlighting the contributions women artists made to the Alliance. Keywords: Post-war American art, figurative painting, realism, artist-run galleries, exhibitions history, feminist art history, second-wave feminism Acknowledgments and Dedication I would foremost like to thank the members of my thesis committee for their support and guidance. I am grateful to Jez Flores-García, my thesis advisor, for encouraging rigorous and thoughtful research and for always making time to discuss my ideas and questions. -

A Different Frame of Mind
The USF Contemporary Art Museum is accepting proposals from artists for an experimental project: A Different Frame of Mind As part of ongoing efforts to find new methods for sharing resources and creative capital with the community, USFCAM is inviting artists to create works specifically designed for used (but still fully functional) fine art frames. In addition to the recycled frames, USFCAM will offer selected artists studio space in public galleries to use while creating the new works. Artists may propose projects that incorporate at least one recycled frame, whether used as a traditional frame or as raw material for more expansive projects. There are 100 available frames ranging in sizes from 18”x14” up to 52”x72”. There are a limited number frames with the same dimensions available for artists that wish to propose a suite of works. The call for proposals is open to regional artists over 18 working in any media including painting, photography, drawing, sculpture, video/film, audio, digital/graphic art, performance-based, and social practice. Artists working together as collaborators or collectives are also welcome to apply. From March 20 to April 17, artists planning to submit a proposal are welcome to set an appointment to come to USFCAM to see the frames that are available. Please email the curator of the exhibition, Vincent Kral, at [email protected] to set up a meeting. From June 9 to June 17, the USFCAM West Gallery will be transformed into studio space available for the selected artists to work, with the public invited to witness the creation of these new works. -
