  • Jeffu Warmouth: NO MORE FUNNY STUFF Is the First Solo Exhibition in the Fitchburg Art Museum’S New Series of Shows Devoted to Contemporary New England Artists
    Fitchburg Art Museum in Partnership : with Fitchburg State University Presents: February 9 - June 1, 2014 Table of Contents 1 Foreword 3 Acknowledgments 5 A Word From The Artist 7 Introduction 9 JeFFu’s FFantastic FFunhouse Exploring Galleries 13 Experimental Performance 23 Playing With Your Food 51 Falling Into A Digital Paradise 19 Rethinking The Motion Picture 91 Exhibition Checklist 95 Biography 103 Bibliography Foreword: Jeffu Warmouth: NO MORE FUNNY STUFF is the first solo exhibition in the Fitchburg Art Museum’s new series of shows devoted to contemporary New England artists. It’s fitting – and important – to begin with Jeffu, because he is Fitchburg’s best-known contemporary artist. His work has been shown across the United States, and abroad, and he has been a vital participant in the regional visual arts community for two decades. This exhibition also reflects the deepening relationship between AMF and Fitchburg State University as we work together to create enhanced artistic and educational experiences for Fitchburg State students and FAM’s audience. A show as complex as Jeffu Warmouth: NO MORE FUNNY STUFF would have been impossible for FAM to achieve alone. Fitchburg State contributed the hard work and creativity of its faculty and students in myriad ways, provided technology and IT support, and invested funds in the exhibition. In return, their students enjoyed a real professional challenge while developing career-boosting portfolio materials. This pilot collaboration worked so well, that it will be continued for future shows at FAM. I would like to thank Fitchburg State President Robert Antonucci for his generosity of spirit and resources, and Professor Rob Carr for his vision and passion.

  • Moody Street Research Project
    MOODY STREET RESEARCH PROJECT The Bentley Service Learning Center Bentley University Waltham, MA Research Team: Melody Shekari (Project Manager), Alexandra Anaya, Owen Bacewicz, Elissa Chan, Dina Ferriero, Stephanie Gagnon, Sarah Hanley, Ellen Morris, Kathryn Ogorzalek, Michael Roper, Justin Rubbo, Joanna Scott, Janet Thai, Dr. Charles Hadlock, Faculty Advisor BENTLEY UNIVERSITY December 16, 2008 Executive Summary Moody Street in Waltham has reached a crossroads: restaurants on the street have achieved considerable success in recent years, while the retail segment has struggled. An assessment of the current commercial environment can offer valuable insight into the future direction of Moody Street. The potential for market saturation of restaurants may have implications on the types of future businesses that locate on Moody Street. In addition, the number of vacancies that have remained unoccupied for lengthy periods of time may be an indication of the need for an increased level of business support from the city and surrounding community. The current economic situation adds additional pressure and challenges to businesses located or thinking of locating on Moody Street. This study focuses on four main questions concerning the commercial success of Moody Street in the coming years: What does market analysis suggest in regard to consumer preferences and sales potential in the area? How do city regulations affect business development on Moody Street? Do the street’s existing infrastructural components meet the needs and expectations of Moody Street consumers and business owners? What is Moody Street’s current brand image, and what strategies have been successfully integrated into other comparable downtown areas to increase consumer brand awareness? This report not only answers these questions, but also offers suggestions and identifies promising opportunities for the transformation of Moody Street into a more popular consumer destination.

  • Meyer Resume & Statement 2013
    Joshua Meyer November 7–30, 2013 Dolby Chadwick Gallery is pleased to announce Rustle, Sparkle, Flutter, Float, an exhibition of new work by Joshua Meyer, on view November 7–30, 2013. Although Meyer paints from reality, his paintings thwart the notion that there can be any such thing as objective reality. Instead, the figures and forms he chooses reveal the world as filtered through the complex network of thoughts, feelings, experiences, and impressions that constitute his singular vantage point. Reflecting on Giorgio Morandi, Meyer sheds light on his own practice: “he paints only from reality and only about reality, yet it always seems obvious that he doesn’t trust the facts. And yet his job is to show us the world as he sees it. Art is what we measure ourselves against.” Unburdened by premeditated processes and overarching themes, Meyer’s paintings instead achieve cohesion through their tendency to “talk among themselves, and occasionally conspire.” One unifying line of inquiry taken up across the works concerns the role of ambiguity and uncertainty in our lives. “I am more and more immersed in the fragility of all of the truths and ideas we hold dear,” Meyer explains, alluding to the tenuousness of knowledge and the swiftness with which our understandings about the world, others, and ourselves can dissipate. This constant making and remaking of the real is undergirded by his remarkable ability to implicate the viewer in the creative process. As each composition’s single, central figure dematerializes from a dense nest of brushstrokes into a pictorial space on the edge of abstraction, the audience is invited to play an active role in reconstructing the progressively open images.
