www.laurarusso.com Anne Siems:Tableau preview LAURA RUSSO GALLERY, PORTLAND OR – Jun 7-30 Tableau by Seattle-based artist Anne Siems features lone, 19th Century-style women set against landscapes that appear to be stage backdrops. By combining elements of still life, landscape and portraiture, she creates compositions that evoke a quiet, clandestine sense of place. In Viola, for example, strange vestiges hang unnoticed beside a figure whose gaze is moody and gently contemplative. Overall, the new paintings have a more object-based reality than Siems' previous work, where she placed her introspective figures and dress forms against textured and painterly backgrounds with no apparent reference to real spaces. The female figures and landscape formations have a pseudo-historic feeling. Garments, personal possessions and hairstyles are reminiscent of our ancestors. Her European folk-art style of painting, the nostalgic objects and the incongruent narratives allude to a romanticized dreamscape where mementos of frivolous beauty are combined with vibrant flowers, Anne Siems, Viola (2007), mixed media [Laura Russo animals and mysterious relics. A bizarre, otherworldly Gallery, Portland OR, Jun 7-30] tone in Siems' work recalls daydreams, memorabilia and connections to history. Anne Siems was born in Berlin and received her MFA from Hochschule der Kunste. She has exhibited in galleries throughout the , since 1987 when she was a Fulbright Scholar.

1540 West 2nd Avenue, Vancouver, BC 604-736-3282 www.elliottlouis.com email: [email protected] Andy Fabo: Queen Street Desperadospreview SKEW GALLERY, CALGARY AB – Jun 28-Aug 4 Andy Fabo is a Calgary-born and internationally recognized artist, activist, critic and curator. Since 1975, he has lived and worked in Toronto where, in the 1980s, he became known as a painter associated with ChromaZone. This influential collective was at the forefront of Toronto's figurative painting movement. Fabo's work, primarily drawing, installation, video and digital imaging, explores issues of personal identity with a focus on his own gay identity. He has received numerous grants from the for the Arts, the Ontario Arts Council and the Toronto Arts Council. Queen Street Desperados is Fabo’s first solo exhibit in Calgary in over fifteen years. The brightly-coloured silkscreen paintings depict various personalities from Toronto's Queen Street art scene. Both satirical and serious, they have been described as “pondering our compulsion for masquerade - an impulse often sanctioned by annual rituals such as Halloween and Mardi Gras…” and “reflecting the preoccupation with Andy Fabo, The Fighting Mr. K (2006), silk screen painting drag as a metaphor for aesthetic artifice that occurs in [Skew Gallery, Calgary AB, Jun 28-Aug 4] the work of Marcel Duchamp and Andy Warhol”. Throughout a career spanning nearly three decades, Andy Fabo's work has been exhibited extensively in Canada, the United States and the UK. In the mid-80s, he was awarded the Canada Council residency at P.S.1. In 2005, Fabo's work was surveyed in a solo exhibition at the Canadian Museum of Contemporary Art. As well as writing and reviewing exhibitions for a range of journals including Parachute, Mix, Fuse, and C magazine, he is a pioneering activist on issues related to Queer culture and HIV/AIDS.

www.fryeart.org Anxious Objects:Willie Cole’s Favoritepreview Brands FRYE ART MUSEUM, SEATTLE WA – Jun 23-Sept 3 Anxious Objects: Willie Cole’s Favorite Brands is a traveling mid-career retrospective and the first survey of Willie Cole’s mature work. Cole is known for assemblages that convert throwaway consumer objects into powerfully charged cross-cultural icons. The artworks represent intersections of spirituality, racial identity and Western materialism. At the same time, they reference Pop art and add to the trajectory of found object art made infamous by Picasso’s bull head and Duchamp’s toilet. Full of witty dualities and metaphoric juxtapositions, the pieces created between 1988-2006 are about transformation. Bicycle parts, women’s high heel shoes, hairdryers and other post- consumer artefacts are the building blocks of the . The use of ordinary objects to create new sculptural forms presents the connundrum of consumer excess in North America and a reinterpretation of African cultural traditions, world religious beliefs, political values and how these ideologies are perceived through the contemporary urban experience. Cole’s artworks are, in part, motivated by his unique cultural and personal perspective. Initially, he found inspiration in the streets of industrial Newark, New Jersey where, raised in a female-dominated household, Cole remembers repairing irons for his mother and grandmother. Now irons are the most common thread in Cole’s work. In his two- dimensional pieces, Cole uses scorch marks from a hot iron to create mask and shield

Less Is More in the expanded SAM The Seattle Art Museum recently opened two amenities that augment SAM’s capacity to display its growing collections and to install special exhi- bitions. The institution’s new nine acre Olympic Sculpture Park (devoted to 20 and 21st century three-dimensional works) opened in January this year. In a 35 hour-long event on May 5-6, the 90,000 square foot addition to the museum’s already-established home of its North American, European, African and Oceanic holdings became available for public viewing. Portland-based archi- tect Brad Cloepfil’s addition to Robert Venturi’s 1991 edifice provided more space for improved presentation, educational amenities, a bigger shop, a ‘proper’ restaurant, and exhibiting galleries where light levels within and views to the outside could be controlled via easy to operate , brise soleil window shields. According to impromptu comments on the Internet, the addition is “ridicu- lously cool” and it “made the Venturi grand stair- case work.” The title of an article by Regina Hack- ett – “Not a show piece, but a show place” – sums up the favourable response SAM’s 2007 addition has, on the whole, elicited. PHOTO BY RICHARD BARNES The 1300 First Avenue exterior of Cloepfil’s Newly opened addition to the Seattle Art Museum, exterior extension does not make a seamless liaison with view of First Avenue and Union Street Venturi’s Post Modern composition it conjoins. It’s a contrapuntal link that’s true to Cloepfil’s own taste for a Modernism that evolved out of the Mies van der Rohe “Less Is More” aesthetic. ‘Beauty’ in this latter approach, results from excel- lent composition and use of materials. Cloepfil’s arresting 18 storey tower is cloaked in gray steel elements and glass panels that are blue or grey under different light conditions and mirror every- thing that surrounds them in an ephemeral fashion. In the Venturi 14 floor building, the artistic effects are applied elements like the textured, -reflective paneling and the fanciful striped archways which do not ‘react’ or ‘reflect’ city life. The top two floors of the older edifice above those veneered with opaque cladding, are a Mies-inspired structure of mullions and glass to which Cloepfil’s entire design makes witty reference. The new tower is the result of a clever arrangement between SAM and Washington Mutual, a bank that is making Seattle its home base. The museum occupies the lowest four floors of a building in which the financial institution owns the top four and currently rents the eight ‘gallery equipped’ storeys in between. While WaMu awaits the completion of its own 42 storey highrise next door, it has a high-profile ‘address’ and SAM can progress carefully into future expansion as its bottom line permits. The Seattle Art Museum’s new logo projects out over University Street like a handshake announcing “I am SAM”.

www.presentationhousegall.com To the Dogs preview PRESENTATION HOUSE GALLERY, NORTH VANCOUVER BC – Jun 29-Aug 5 To the Dogs is an exhibit of historic and contemporary photographs of dogs that looks at the relationships between human and canine. The images in the exhibit portray the diverse ways dogs take part in human society as domestic pets, companions, co-workers, labourers and even performers. The exhibition includes late 1800s photographs by Edweard Muybridge, early 20th century images by the famous French photographer Jacques-Henri Lartigue, and work by well-known contemporary photographers Elliott Erwitt, a Magnum photographer, and William Wegman, famous for his soulful portraits of his Weimaraner dogs in various costumes. A highlight of the exhibit is a temporary dog portrait studio operated by Shari Hatt, who will be available for portrait sessions by appointment.

The exhibit portrays the entire length of the Columbia River as it once appeared through sixty historical photographs and the writings of early explorers, surveyors, and naturalists, as well as writings by contemporary

Canadian and American writers and poets. COLLECTION: WENATCHEE VALLEY MUSEUM & CULTURAL CENTER, 40-67-15 Above the installations, 143 hand-painted Grace Christiansen Gardner, Priest Rapids (1938), photograph [Touchstones silk fish represent all species ever found in Nelson: Museum of Art and History, Nelson BC, through Aug 5] the river’s 2000 kilometre length. River of Memory plays an important role in introducing, what exhibition curator Bill Layman calls “whole river understanding.” The Columbia River flows from the mountains of BC throughout Washington to Oregon’s pacific coast. It was divided in the 20th century by fourteen hydroelectric dams and reservoirs that control floods, provide irrigation and supply electricity. The photographs in the exhibition capture its origins as a series of waterways for salmon, First Nations settlements, fur-trade routes, agricultural communities, and a highway for commercial stern-wheelers and railway links. The focus is on early European exploration of the Columbia from the 1880s to the early 1900s, and the exhibition questions the kinds of economic, geographic, archeological and cultural changes caused by the river’s displacement since that time. Toured by the Wenatchee Valley Museum and Cultural Center, River of Memory will visit five Northwest museums over the next two years, including Touchstones Nelson, the Royal British Columbia Museum in Victoria, the NW Museum of Art and Culture, in Spokane, as well as Tacoma and Portland. A 150-page book accompanies the exhibition. Mia Johnson

Chapter 10. The Case of Cornelis the Copyist. Recently, while wandering around a local antiques and collectibles show, I happened upon an interesting black ink, unframed engraving on paper. I was struck by the large size of the work, approx. 27.4 × 21.4 cm. (10.5 × 8.5 in.) and also, the unusual subject matter and composition. The image depicts a shepherd wearing a hat and holding a staff with both hands. He is riding a horse into the landscape parallel to the axis of the viewer and is about to cross a shallow river. A cow at his right, travelling in the same direction and a disinterested goat, linger behind. Immediately to his left on the river shore is a woman with a staff in her right hand and a full bag cradled in her left. Her dog, which appears to be travelling with her, cowers at her right side, presumably at the sight of the horse and shepherd. In the far landscape, above a mountainous C. de Visscher, Shepherd in Skin Vest. outcrop stand the ruins of a tower. Visual elements in the image suggest a definite delineation between the labours of men and women and perhaps insight into their respective positions in 17th century agrarian society. The man on horseback, with his animals, leading the viewer into the landscape is contrasted by the woman on foot, passing in the opposite direction, with perhaps a bag of grain under her arm and supported by elements of domesticity, such as the dog. The positioning of the staffs in the hands of both figures form a strong diagonal, from upper right to lower left. The work was in good condition, although there was some browning. In the top right of the image appeared the words Berghem Delineavit with C. Visscher f. below. In the bottom centre, outside the image, appeared the words Nicolaus Visscher excudit and at the extreme right, outside the image appeared the numeral “1”. As I entered the booth to take a better look, the merchant offered the work for $25. As the show was about to close and I presume he did not want to take his unsold merchandise back to the store, he offered the piece at $15. At his insistence, I reluctantly purchased the work. I knew something about antique engravings and my curiosity led me to research the work. I knew that the engraving was of the period and an engraved copy of an oil on canvas painting by Nicolaes Pietersz Brechem (1620-1683) as evidenced by the words Berghem Delineavit (Berchem painted this). I also knew that C. Visscher f. indicated that C. (Cornelis) Visscher f (fecit) made or manufactured the engraving and the words Nicolaus Visscher excudit indicated that Nicolaus Visscher had printed or published the engraving. What I did not know was that an exact multiple of the same engraving was in the permanent collection of the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria and appeared in the catalogue, Dutch 17th Century Prints. The catalogue listed works, which toured the country in 1981-1982. Further research indicated that another exact multiple was in the permanent collection of the Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco. The work was titled Shepherd in Skin Vest, and is also known as Man on Horseback with Cow and Sheep; Woman and Dog Crossing a River. Cornelis Visscher, designer and engraver was born in Harlem, Netherlands around 1628 and died there about 1658. His family was very influential in the engraving industry and works engraved by Cornelis were often published by another family member, Nicolaus. I believe the work to be an authentic, original 17th century engraving by the listed Dutch Master, Cornelis de Visscher (circa 1628-1658).

CHARLOTTE CAMPBELL JOE NORRIS www.contemporarycrafts.org Craft in America:Expanding Traditionspreview MUSEUM OF CONTEMPORARY CRAFT, PORTLAND OR – Jul 22-Sept 23 The Contemporary Crafts Museum & Gallery in Portland, Oregon is moving this summer from its original location to an expanded 15,000 square foot site on the North Park blocks in Portland, and reopening as the Museum of Contemporary Craft. The transition marks a milestone for the 70 year old institution. The inaugural exhibition, Craft in America: Expanding Traditions, seeks to create a historical framework through which to understand the evolution of craft in America. The nationally touring exhibit is one facet of a multimedia project that includes a three-part television documentary, a website and an illustrated book. It showcases over 100 pieces of furniture, ceramics, basketry, textiles, glass, jewellery, metal and wood pieces from different periods and cultural affiliations dating from the Industrial Revolution to the present time. Both utilitarian and decorative works are featured. The pioneering artisans of the American Indians and Amish communities used indigenous materials to create pieces drawn from their cultural heritage. Examples from the Arts and Crafts Movement depict the labour inherent in handcrafted objects that was intended to morally improve society. Artworks from the WPA and other government-sponsored projects of the 1930s are highlighted alongside work by European designers who settled in America during that time.

He is an educational ambassador for his community, an expert carver, and a renowned Kwakwaka’wakw mask dancer who has represented his people around the world. In his first solo exhibition of art, Kwakiutl artist Simon Dick presents a series of carvings and jewellery pieces based on the theme of birds. As a dancer for the Hamatsa secret society, Dick’s role as the Grouse is to call forth the other dances. The bird masks in this exhibit, which he created from red cedar, cedar bark, feathers and bits of fur, demonstrate the degree to which his ceremonial artworks are a labour of love. The masks, like his dancing, are exuberant, lively, technically elaborate works of art. Simon Dick grew up in Kingcome Inlet, BC and later moved to Alert Bay. He apprenticed under Tony Hunt Sr. for four years at the Arts Of The Raven studio in Victoria, and Simon Dick, Echo Mask (2007), red cedar under Sam Henderson in Campbell River. He worked with [Inuit Gallery, Vancouver BC, Jun 23-Jul 13] acclaimed Haida artist, the late Bill Reid, carving a 24-foot canoe. Dick continues this tradition by taking on apprentices and teaching them the art and the ways of the First Nations People. In 1986, Dick was commissioned to create a carving for Expo by the Canadian Pavilion in Vancouver, BC. He designed and constructed a massive Thunderbird carving, measuring 40 feet high by 30 feet wide, that cradled the amphitheater. Mia Johnson

His background includes painting, performances, cinematic work and a Diploma in Film Direction from the Beijing Film Institute, as well as four years at the Heilongjiang Fine Arts Institute. JACANA Contemporary Art represents a variety of Canadian and international artists with special attention to contemporary Asian art. JACANA's mandate is to recognize the rapidly developing currents in Asian fine art and their influence on Canadian culture and society. The gallery exhibits a mix of modern landscape, abstract and realist work. Solids:Bound is an exhibition of work by Peng Liu with two components: an installation and paintings using ropes on canvas. For the installation, Liu employs ropes to suspend Chinese furniture in the air, an act that moves them from the functional to the merely decorative and curious. Liu describes the installation as a metaphor for his ties to Chinese culture and his simultaneous sense of displacement as an immigrant in the West. The paintings result from an elaborate crafts procedure using ropes of different colours, textures, diameters and lengths. After joining side-by-side canvasses with piles of colourful ropes and a mixture of glue and oil pigments, he allows the surfaces to dry before cutting them apart again. As he puts it, “Part of me struggles to sever the bonds confining Peng Liu in studio [JACANA Contemporary Art, me, while another part of me works continually to forge new Vancouver BC, Jun 2-24] ones.” Mia Johnson

In 1987, he travelled to Japan where he continues to work today. McLean creates pen and ink caricatures dense with symbols that employ strong narratives of subterfuge, crime, fraud and illusion. He works primarily on paper and canvas creating meticulously detailed depictions of scenes drawn from life and interwoven with fantasy. His drawings imitate the over-crowded living conditions in Japan and the strict use of space. Many are based on incidents in the trains, which are filled to capacity. He has also created Jack McLean, Big Drawing I [detail] (2007), oil-based ink several sculptural installations, including The pen on canvas [Elissa Cristall Gallery, Vancouver BC, Aug Mircosculpture Involuntary Acquisitions Project where the 18-28] artist placed sculptures at the Moma NYC, Tate London, MOCA L.A. and Tokyo’s Hara Museum. In Tokyo, he once buried Cellophane wrapped cast human limbs in public parks. McLean recently showed his work at the Waiheke Community and Corner Gallery in New Zealand, Henie Onstad Art Centre in Oslo, the UN Gallery and A.R.T Gallery in Tokyo, and the Roebling Hall Gallery in New York. Black Line Glamour is his first exhibit in Canada. The exhibition follows the completion of a residency in Norway by invitation of the Norwegian Government where he began a set of mural-size manga drawings of Ibsen’s play Peer Gynt for “Ibsen 2006”.

Those in the know can skip this part, but if you are like me, the answer was – “Qui?” As I have since learned, she was a self- taught British artist who, in 1915, travelled to Tokyo to visit her sister. Long story short, she fell in love with the Orient, and held an exhibit of locally inspired watercolours and drawings, that caught the attention of Shosaburo Watanabe. Watanabe was a publisher with a vision and an art marketer extraordinaire. He revived the dying art of woodblock printing by Before treatment encouraging artists to incorporate Western aesthetics into traditional ukiyo-e style and themes. The resulting hybrid became known as the Shin Hanga (“New Print”), and, as so cleverly planned by Watanabe, prints of this genre became best sellers in North America and Europe. Watanabe encouraged Keith to work with wood block cutters to translate her watercolours into prints. By the time she left Japan in 1924, she had published over a hundred prints with him, and put on successful shows in Japan, London and New York. After treatment Lama Temple Peking was printed in 1922. It came to my studio with discoloured and damaged margins, so typical of many Japanese wood block prints. In addition, there was light overall discolouration, a rust stain on the right margin and some localized fading of the red colour. The challenge with these types of prints is to clean them without disturbing the colour. In this case, the print was floated on a deionized water bath with an EDTA chelating agent. The EDTA helps draw out discolouration, making for quicker and more efficient cleaning, reducing the time that the print is exposed to water. EDTA also binds with metal ion, and so reduces the chance of future metal catalyzed chemical reactions. Float washing allows discolouration to be drawn out from the reverse, without having to immerse the more sensitive front. The margins were further treated with dilute hydrogen peroxide bleach applied locally with a brush. The print was rinsed by floating on successive deionized water baths, and transferring to a suction table, where the margins were further rinsed. Losses in the upper right margin were filled with paper inserts cut from Japanese kozo paper, and set in place using methylcellulose adhesive. At the owner’s request, areas where the red colour had faded were lightly toned with watercolour. One of the many pleasures of conservation is learning about the passions of my different clients. This has introduced me to a wide variety of artists and images that I might otherwise never have discovered, a lovely perk of the profession.

Using a variety of mediums, some not necessarily thought of as drawing materials, they variously explore figuration, still life, architecture, suburban development and the landscape. Sonja Ahlers has been described as “an archaeologist of popular culture” for her collages of thrift store items combined with drawing in a poster-like manner. They share a narrative quality with the work by Corin Sworn, who examines experimental philosophies of early childhood, particularly child-centered education. Sydney Vermont’s figure studies are inspired by characters in French New Wave films, pages from Madame Bovary, and MySpace pages of local musicians. Ryan Taber’s elaborate historical dramas result from his research; for example, in recent drawings he merges tombs of the Roman Emperors with detailed examinations of misclassified species. Laura Piasta constructs unusual geometric compositions reminiscent of Buckminster Fuller. In a more traditional drawing style, Haydex Li creates beautiful graphite renderings of suburban buildings that emphasize piles of demolition and Haydex Li, Interval 01 (2006), ink on paper [Atelier Gallery, construction, while Maxwell Simmer uses Vancouver BC, Jun 16-Jul 7] traditional watercolour techniques for his rambling still-life studies of objects selected from found photographs.

Reverend Robert J. Dundas first acquired it in 1863 at the village of Metlakatla, a Tsimshian First Nations settlement near what today is the site of Prince Rupert, British Columbia. Most of the objects belonged to Tsimshian grand chief Paul Legaic before he converted to Christianity and was required, by custom of the era, to give up objects connected to the "pagan" practices of COLLECTION OF WESTERKIRK WORKS ART INC PHOTO: FRANK TANCREDI traditional native spirituality. A selection of his Treasures of the Tsimshian from the Dundas Collection, Raven former possessions is currently on display at the Mask (mask with movable jaw and eyes) [Royal BC Museum, Royal BC Museum (RBCM) for the first time in Victoria BC, through Jul 4] more than a century. Treasures of the Tsimshian consists of 40 artefacts auctioned by Sotheby’s in October 2006 to a group of eleven owners who included Federal heritage officials, museum curators and aboriginal leaders. The Sotheby's auction in New York took in a total of $7.03 million US, setting a record for the sale of native art. Pieces in the exhibition include two wooden face masks, a clan hat and two rare clubs made of carved antler. Representatives from RBCM and the Museum of Northern BC worked closely with hereditary chiefs and elders of the Allied Tsimshian Tribes of Lax Kw' Alaams and Metlakatla to develop the exhibition. The chiefs asked that the travelling exhibit begin in Tsimshian territory, where these important cultural pieces originated and where their children and elders would be the first to see them. RBCM is managing the tour of Treasures of the Tsimshian with the support of lead sponsor Westerkirk Capital.

Subjects include the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan; escalating tensions between Israel, Palestine and Lebanon; conflict in other parts of the Middle East; looming strife with Iran and North Korea; and political turmoil in the United States. The Pacifist Potential artists respond humanely and respectfully to these issues. They share a common goal toward nonviolence while expressing different attitudes and using a range of techniques. For example, Stephen Leflar and Mary Real use graphic imagery from news clippings in Peace March, while Sharon Bronzan uses the symbolic white dove in her Vestido de Paz (Dress of Peace). Andrea Benson's Listener illustrates the immense patience needed to resolve such tumultuous situations. Special events hosted at Blackfish Gallery include two Andrea Benson, Listener (2007), encaustic on wood panel, mixed media [Blackfish installations in windows, performances and a documentary film Gallery, Portland OR, Jun 5-30] screening about military families who have joined the peace movement. To further expand dialogue on these subjects, numerous panel discussions with actors, writers, historians, clergy, politicians, veterans, counselors, and journalists are planned. The exhibit will be documented in a catalogue with essays by lecturers and panelists, and will travel to the Newport Art Center in Newport, Oregon. Allyn Cantor

Nakagawa is a recent graduate of the Capilano College sculpture program. Using natural materials like seedpods, paper, wood and wire, she creates abstract forms that evoke structures in nature. Nakagawa describes the process as an “unspoken conversation”. Her pieces have a tightly packed feminine sensibility informed by her desire to communicate human qualities of emptiness, loss, renewal, rebirth and a sense of hope. Nakagawa attended the Corcoran College of Art + Design in Washington, DC from 1999-2002. In 2002, she received the Berthold Schmutzhart award for achievement in sculpture. Prior to moving to Vancouver, she was a member of the Jackson Art Center in Georgetown, Washington and assisted with a joint Corcoran/Emily Carr alumni exhibit at the Canadian Embassy in Washington.

Olympic Sculpture Park, aerial view www.bau-xi.com Tracey McGlynn:Your Ark preview BAU-XI GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – Aug 11-25 Toronto artist Casey McGlynn creates paintings with the child-like quality of primitive art combined with an adolescent sensibility. The dreamlike narratives contain symbolic motifs and rough iconic imagery that evoke simple art forms like quilt patterns, folk art, tattoo designs and comic books. His images are highly personal and idiosyncratic, much like folk art. McGlynn has, in fact, shown his work at such venues as the Art Fair in New York and the Modern Primitive Gallery in Atlanta. In “your ark”, McGlynn revisits sheep imagery that first appeared in his work in the mid-1990s. He seems to be searching for an essential philosophy of life that involves personal reflection, autobiography, emotional expression and a dreamy surrealism. Frequent subject matter includes herds Tracey McGlynn, Your Art (2007), mixed media on canvas [Bau-Xi Gallery, Vancouver BC, Aug 11-25] of domestic animals against colourful patchwork backgrounds; child-like drawings of houses, plants and leaves; and rudimentary asexual figures – all with an emphasis on silhouette-like shapes. While still a student at the Ontario College of Art and Design in 1998, McGlynn began showing at the Bau-Xi Gallery in Toronto. A year later he began showing in Vancouver. He now has twelve solo shows to his credit with the Bau-Xi Galleries. Mia Johnson

PLEASE NOTE: Prices may be subject to additional charges for postage, handling and taxes. www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 83 www.portlandartmuseum.org Rembrandt and the Golden Age ofpreview Dutch Art: Treasures from the Rijksmuseum,Amsterdam PORTLAND ART MUSEUM, OR – Jun 2-Sept 16 With a focus on the work of Rembrandt van Rijn, Rembrandt and the Golden Age of Dutch Art: Treasures from the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam highlights the artistry of Holland’s “Golden Age” with exceptional examples of 17th Century paintings, etchings and pieces of decorative and applied arts. Included in the exhibit are works by Jan Steen, Frans Hals, Pieter de Hooch and Jacob van Ruisdael. While Amsterdam’s famed Rijksmuseum is under renovation, this traveling exhibition allows viewers a glimpse of many artworks never before exhibited in the United States. The images provide a window into the lives and values of a time during which the Republic of United Netherlands became recognized as an independent state, freed from Spanish domination. Economic growth during this historical period led to a modern, urban society and an expanded middle class. Art was bought and sold in a free market rather than through commissions by the church or nobility. With the exception of Rembrandt, who demonstrated mastery in every genre, artists were finally able to specialize and create a niche for their work. The exhibit is organized into themed sections, each including work by Rembrandt. The Artists and Their World, which includes Rembrandt's Self-Portrait as the Apostle Paul (1661), highlights self-portraiture and portraits of colleagues. Still-Life and the Applied Arts revels in the excellence of applied art during this era. The City/Commerce illustrates the prosperity of international trade and the emerging middle class. The Countryside Frans Hals, Portrait of a Man, Possibly Nicolaes includes realistic landscapes and demonstrates the Hasselar, Brewer and Captain-Major of the Civic Guard interest by some Dutch painters in rural Italy.

The realistic-looking animal figures have rounded heads and bodies with oval-shaped eyes, and the paint colours – when used – are subdued and true to life. Since the 1970s, artists have also expressed traditional designs as prints on paper. The art forms are entwined with other aspects of the culture, such as language, song, dance, storytelling and theatre. They are also closely connected with the work of three important figures who influence the creation of aesthetic object: the Indian Doctor, the Prophet and the Ritualist. Contemporary artists, such as Chief Floyd Joseph of the Squamish Nation and Stan Greene of the Sto:lo and Semiahmoo communities, have mastered the Coast Salish art style through careful study and replication of the surviving masterpieces.

Thru www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 87 www.marionscottgallery.com Northern Line:Drawings by Sheojukpreview Etidlooie (1932-1999) MARION SCOTT GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – Jul 21-Aug 31 Cape Dorset artist Sheojuk Etidlooie had a short but extremely productive career of only five years. Using an enigmatic abstract style, she produced strikingly spare images based on motifs taken from everyday northern life. She often used an aerial or diagrammatic perspective. Although subjects included such man-made objects as pails, stone lamps, traditional flotation devices and tents, as well as caribou, fish, whales and birds, her work was unique in its non- narrative approach. Etidlooie was born in 1932 in an outpost camp on southern Baffin Island, near the present-day settlement of Cape Dorset. She developed a unique sense of colour and design from years of sewing traditional patterned clothing, and the iteration of motifs became a strong element of her art. In the mid-1990s, she was invited to make drawings for the West Baffin Eskimo Cooperative, Cape Dorset’s renowned art studio. In 1994, one of her images was selected for inclusion in the Cape Dorset Annual Print Release. The edition sold Sheojuk Etidlooie, Untitled (seal-skin float) (1998), out within days of its release, and her work pencil crayon on paper [Marion Scott Gallery, subsequently was included in each annual collection Vancouver BC, Jul 21-Aug 31] until 1999. She also participated in an oil-stick painting workshop in 1999. This experimentation resulted in a series of brilliantly-coloured oil stick paintings on board. Etidlooie continued to make drawings prolifically until succumbing to cancer in 1999. The Marion Scott Gallery presents the first exhibition in nearly a decade of Etidlooie’s unconventional art, “a singular contribution to Inuit art and to Canadian art more generally that has not yet been fully recognized,” writes the director. The show includes 25 of her simple but colourful drawings accompanied by a small catalogue.

For The Stolen Hours, Araluce is constructing an engrossing life-size rendition of what he usually creates on a miniature scale. Rather than using found parts, he built or made everything in the installation, including the linoleum. Araluce is also showing several meticulous small pieces, some of which have direct references to the larger environment. The installation itself promises to be as dark and haunting as previous work. Araluce's settings are poetic but ominous. Implied tragedies and other narratives are generated by the stained surface of a wall, cracked brick facades, old floor boards and other decaying scenarios. The scenes seem frozen in time, leaving uneasy traces as evidence for scrutiny. Araluce is a scenic designer for the Seattle Opera. He received a City Artist Projects Grant from the Seattle Office of Rick Araluce, The Failure [detail] (2007), mixed Arts and Cultural Affairs to create this impressive site- media [William Traver Gallery, Seattle WA, Jul specific work.
