  • Å Samla Kunst Dei Ervervar Og Ikkje Ervervar Til Samlingane, Og Måten Det Blir Gjort På
    Museum for visuell kunst skil seg frå andre museum ved at dei samlar på kunst frå vår Jorunn Veiteberg eiga tid. Dei er såleis viktige medspelarar i dagens kunstliv, og interessa for korleis dei utøver denne rolla, er stor og til tider støyande. Ikkje minst gjeld det spørsmål rundt kva Å samla kunst dei ervervar og ikkje ervervar til samlingane, og måten det blir gjort på. Samlingsutvikling ved norske kunstmuseum på 2000-talet I denne rapporten blir inntakspraksisen mellom år 2000 og 2016 i 14 kunstmuseum KUNST SAMLA Å i Noreg kartlagt. I tillegg til musea sine eigne prioriteringar tar rapporten opp kva slags kunst musea har fått overført frå Innkjøpsfondet for norsk kunsthåndverk, Sparebankstiftelsen og Kulturrådet si nedlagde innkjøpsordning. Korleis unge Jorunn Veiteberg kunstnarar er representerte, samtidskunsten sin plass og kjønnsfordelinga i samlingane er spørsmål som står sentralt. Rapporten viser også kor lite synleg samlingspraksisen til musea har vore hittil. Museumssamlingane tener som vår felles minnebank. Difor bør det stadig reisast spørsmål ved korleis musea utøver makta dei har som historieskrivarar og minneforvaltarar. I seinare år har private samlarar sett stadig sterkare avtrykk i dei offentlege musea gjennom donasjonar og langtidslån. Eit aktuelt spørsmål er difor om det i dag er desse privatsamlarane som er blitt premissleverandørar for historieskrivinga. ISBN 978-82-7081-191-5 i kommisjon hos Fagbokforlaget ,!7II2H0-ibbjbf! Jorunn Veiteberg (f. 1955) er dr.philos. i kunsthistorie frå Universitetet i Bergen. Ho har arbeidd med samtidskunst både som utstillingsleiar, redaktør og som frilans skribent og kurator. Veiteberg har vore professor II ved Kunsthøgskolen i Oslo og Kunst- og designhøgskolen i Bergen, og sidan 2013 har ho vore gjesteprofessor ved HDK Göteborgs universitet.

  • Press Release for Editing
    Moderne Gallery Is Making A Move! - as always...looking forward, taking the lead ---- From Old City to Port Richmond, Philadelphia, in January 2019 Moderne Gallery, recognized internationally as the prime gallery for studio craft furniture, and as the leading Nakashima dealer in the world, is moving to a new center for high end design, art and antiques in the Port Richmond section of Philadelphia, as of January 2019. The new showroom is not open to the public as of yet, but can be visited by appointment only. It is set to open in the Spring of 2019. Moderne Gallery will be the first tenant in the Showrooms at 2220, a newly restored former mill at 2220 East Allegheny Avenue, (Port Richmond) Philadelphia, PA 19134. The 100,000 square-foot building is owned and managed by Jeffrey Kamal and Joe Holahan, co-owners of Kamelot Auction Company, which holds its auctions and has its offices in the building. "We are not downsizing, or giving up our showroom concept with special exhibitions," says Moderne Gallery founder/director Robert Aibel. "And certainly we will continue to build our business through internet sales." Joshua Aibel, Robert's son, is now co-director of Moderne Gallery and helping to develop this combination of sales concepts. "We see this as an opportunity to move to a setting that presents a comprehensive, easily accessible major art, antiques and design center for our region, just off I-95," says Josh Aibel. "The Showrooms at 2220 offer an attractive new venue with great showroom spaces and many advantages for our storage and shipping requirements." Moderne Gallery's new showrooms are being designed by the gallery's longtime interior designer Michael Gruber of Philadelphia.

  • Integrerte Utsmykninger Av Odd Tandberg 1959 – 1973
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by NORA - Norwegian Open Research Archives Prosess og struktur Integrerte utsmykninger av Odd Tandberg 1959 – 1973 Trine Tandberg Meggison Masteroppgave i kunsthistorie Veileder: Marit Werenskiold Institutt for filosofi, idé‐ og kunsthistorie og klassiske språk Universitetet i Oslo Våren 2009 Sammendrag Målsetningen med oppgaven har vært å beskrive og dokumentere beslutnings- og arbeidsprosessene under utviklingen av Odd Tandbergs (f. 1924) utsmykninger, og hans samarbeid med arkitektene. I denne sammenhengen er det tatt utgangspunkt i følgende seks utsmykningsoppdrag: Regjeringsbyggets høyblokk (1957/58), Norsk Hydros administrasjonsbygg (1960/63), Norges Vassdrags- og Elektrisitetsvesens administrasjonsbygg (1961/63), Elkemhuset (1964/65), Kulturhuset i Borås (1973) og Kortedala Vårfrukyrka (1969/72), Gøteborg. Samtlige av disse er eksempler på bruken av forskjellige metoder for støping av betong i kunstnerisk sammenheng. Kortedala Vårfrukyrka er i tillegg et eksempel på en lang beslutningsprosess der det ble utformet flere utkast og modeller til utsmykning av alterveggen. Integreringen av kunst og arkitektur profiterer på et samspill mellom de to kunstartene, og et gjensidig samarbeid mellom kunstner og arkitekt. Jeg har imidlertid ikke lagt vekt på verken arkitektens perspektiv eller utformingen av arkitekturen, men har kun valgt å se på temaet fra kunstnerens side. Årsaken til dette er de begrensningene oppgavens omfang gir, samt materialet jeg har hatt tilgang til. Det redegjøres for Tandbergs valg av formspråk og hans omfattende samarbeid med arkitektene, spesielt Erling Viksjø, som grunnlag for hans utsmykninger. De hadde et nært og fruktbart samarbeid, med rom for utprøving av nye teknikker og materialer.

  • Research Resources at the Smithsonian American Art Museum Amelia A
    From La Farge to Paik Research Resources at the Smithsonian American Art Museum Amelia A. Goerlitz A wealth of materials related to artistic interchange between the United States and Asia await scholarly attention at the Smithsonian Institution.1 The Smithsonian American Art Museum in particular owns a remarkable number of artworks that speak to the continuous exchange between East and West. Many of these demonstrate U.S. fascination with Asia and its cultures: prints and paintings of America’s Chinatowns; late-nineteenth- century examples of Orientalism and Japonisme; Asian decorative arts and artifacts donated by an American collector; works by Anglo artists who trav- eled to Asia and India to depict their landscapes and peoples or to study traditional printmaking techniques; and post-war paintings that engage with Asian spirituality and calligraphic traditions. The museum also owns hundreds of works by artists of Asian descent, some well known, but many whose careers are just now being rediscovered. This essay offers a selected overview of related objects in the collection. West Looks East American artists have long looked eastward—not only to Europe but also to Asia and India—for subject matter and aesthetic inspiration. They did not al- ways have to look far. In fact, the earliest of such works in the American Art Mu- seum’s collection consider with curiosity, and sometimes animosity, the presence of Asians in the United States. An example is Winslow Homer’s engraving enti- tled The Chinese in New York—Scene in a Baxter Street Club-House, which was produced for Harper’s Weekly in 1874.

  • Oral History Interview with George Tsutakawa, 1983 September 8-19
    Oral history interview with George Tsutakawa, 1983 September 8-19 Funding for the digital preservation of this interview was provided by a grant from the Save America's Treasures Program of the National Park Service. Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Preface The following oral history transcript is the result of a tape-recorded interview with George Tsutakawa on September 8, 12, 14 & 19, 1983. The interview took place in Seattle, WA, and was conducted by Martha Kingsbury for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. Interview DATE: SEPTEMBER 8, 1983 [Tape 1; Side A] [GEORGE TSUTAKAWA reviewed the transcript and added clarification, particularly about the World War II years. His added comments with his initials are in brackets--Ed.] MARTHA KINGSBURY: George, why don't we start by talking about a lot of biographical matters. I'd like to know about your personal background, your family, your growing up in Seattle and Japan also, education. GEORGE TSUTAKAWA: Uh huh. Well, let's see now. My father was a merchant who came to Seattle in 1905, and he started a small business and eventually he gets involved in fairly large company exporting and importing American goods and Japanese goods. He, as I recall, had business in Japanese food, clothing, art goods, and all sorts of things from Japan, and then in turn he was sending lumber from the Northwest to Japan.
