Photographer Marcus Tullis Neil Jenney began selling his Abstract Expressionist paintings in Boston in 1965. He moved to New York in 1966 after Boston galleries refused to exhibit his sculpture. In 1967 dealer Richard Bellamy showed Jenney’s “linear sculptures” in a group exhibition with Jean Arp, Richard Artschwager, Walter De Maria, Bruce Nauman, and Richard Serra. In 1968 Jenney created a series of sculptures made with found materials. These “theatrical” or “environmental” works morphed into a structure of “these things and those things relating.” Later that year, Jenney discovered an art scene soaked in Photorealism. Feeling that this was a second- generation Pop art solution that was “a bad idea done pretty,” he decided to paint “good ideas done badly.” His “Bad Paintings”, which involved “the relationship of things to things,” occupied his career from 1969 to 1970. In late 1970 Jenney decided that a more interesting challenge was “Good Painting”, which he has since produced. Jenney believes that there are two ancient and coexistent art styles, realism and abstraction. As a realist, he theorizes that today’s realist movement has two parts: those who insist that line be intuitively generated, like the Greeks, and that color be atmospheric, like the Impressionists; and those who prefer the line and color of cameras and computers. Born in 1945 in Torrington, CT, and raised in Westfield, MA, Jenney’s work is in major collections, including The Metropolitan Museum of Art; Whitney Museum of American Art; the Museum of Modern Art; and Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Exhibitions include an international traveling retrospective that originated at Berkeley Art Museum (1981); Whitney Biennial (1969, 1973, 1981, 1987); New Image Painting, Whitney Museum Page 2 of 5 Press Release of American Art, (1978); and Bad Painting, New Museum of Contemporary Art (1978). Jenney was part of the group exhibition, Representations of America (1977–78) organized by The Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco for the Pushkin Museum, the Hermitage, and The Palace of Art, Minsk. At the time, he was the youngest American artist to have shown in post-war Soviet Union. Museum Professional, Richard Armstrong Richard Armstrong has served as Director of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum and Foundation since November 2008. In addition to overseeing the New York museum and its collection he also provides leadership and management for the other institutions in the global Guggenheim network, including the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice, and the proposed Guggenheim Abu Dhabi. Prior to his appointment at the Guggenheim, Armstrong served at Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh, as Curator of Contemporary Art and Henry J. Heinz II Director (1996–2008). From 1981 to 1992, Armstrong was a curator at the Whitney Museum of American Art, where he helped to organize four Whitney Biennials, as well as important exhibitions on subjects such as the work of Richard Artschwager and The New Sculpture 1965–75. Richard Armstrong Photo: David M. Heald © The Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, New York, 2012 Art Historians, Lucy Freeman Sandler and Irving Sandler A medievalist, Lucy Freeman Sandler is credited by her peers with aiding the transformation of illuminated manuscript research from a niche discipline into a lively and capacious area of study. Professor Sandler has authored numerous books, essays and articles on medieval art and Gothic manuscript illumination. Articles have appeared in such global publications as Burlington Magazine, The Art Bulletin, Journal of the British Archaeological Association, and Gesta, the journal of the International Center of Medieval Art. Institutions such as the National Endowment for the Humanities, the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation, and the Mellon Foundation have honored her with fellowships and awards Dr. Irving Sandler, art critic and historian, is Professor Emeritus of Art History at State University of New York. He is a contributing editor of Art in America. Dr. Sandler is the author of numerous publications including four surveys of art since World War II: The Triumph of American Painting: A History of Abstract Expressionism (1970), The New York School: Painters and Sculptors of the 1950s (1978), American Art of the 1960s (1988), and Art of the Postmodern Era: From the late 1960s to the Early 1990s (1996) as well as monographs on Alex Katz, Al Held, Mark di Suvero and Deborah Kass, among others. He is a former president and current board member of the American Section of the International Association of Art Critics. In 2008, he received the Lifetime Achievement Award in Art Criticism from the International Association of Art Critics. Page 3 of 5 Press Release Patron of the Arts, Alice Pack Melly A member of the Vassar College class of 1956, she went on to the Harvard Radcliffe Graduate Program in Business Administration. Apart from raising four children, participation in the nonprofit world of social services and local government has been her career. Following the interest of generations of her family in natural resources and conservation, she served on the board of the Greenwich Audubon Society. This led to years of service on the Inland Wetlands and Watercourses Agency. She began her Junior League involvement in New York City in 1952 and ultimately served as President of the Greenwich League. She then moved on to the Greenwich Library and became president of its board. Alice has been very active in Town government as a member of the Representative Town Meeting and served for ten years on the Board of Estimate and Taxation, four years as its Chairman. Since 1998, she has served on the Bruce Museum board in various terms. Art Collectors, Sherry and Joel Mallin Sherry and Joel are avid collectors. They soon had completely covered all their walls with paintings, photographs and prints. While lack of space never troubles a true collector (they started using the ceiling for large paintings) the “eureka” moment occurred one day as they searched for space: one of them looked out the window and announced, “We have lot of outdoor space – why not collect sculpture?” Thus began their 35-year journey in collecting and placing sculpture in the landscape. They now have over 70 outdoor sculptural installations. In 2000, they opened one of the first “art barns” in the area, a 10,000-square foot exhibition space now entirely filled with art. Sherry and Joel Mallin. Photographer Louis David of David Photos Leaders in the Art Trade, Lucy Mitchell-Innes and David Nash Lucy Mitchell-Innes co-founded Mitchell-Innes & Nash in 1996 with her husband, David Nash, with a gallery on Madison Avenue. In 2005, Mitchell-Innes & Nash opened a second space in New York’s Chelsea neighborhood. From acclaimed surveys of 20th century masters, such as Jean Arp, Anthony Caro, Jay DeFeo, Willem de Kooning, Martha Rosler, and Jessica Stockholder, Mitchell-Innes & Nash has proven expertise in both advancing the careers of emerging artists and maintaining the superior standard set by established artists. Prior to opening the gallery, Lucy Mitchell-Innes worked from 1981 to 1994 at Sotheby’s, where she served as head of the Contemporary Art Department in Europe, then in New York as worldwide director of the Contemporary Art, Latin American Art and Contemporary and Modern Print departments. Ms. Mitchell-Innes served as President of the Art Dealers Association of America from 2009 until 2012. She is currently a member of the selection committee of Art Basel.

  • 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.

  • Press Release Al Held
    PRESS RELEASE AL HELD Black and White Paintings 1967–1969 Opens Thursday February 18 from 6-8 pm Exhibition continues through March 26, 2016 Cheim & Read is pleased to present eight monumental black and white paintings, dating from 1967 to 1969, Al Held (1928–2005). An exhibition of Held’s “Alphabet Paintings,” made between 1961 and 1967, was exhibited at the gallery in 2013. This exhibition focuses on the unique series of paintings Held began in 1967, in which various geometric forms, arranged in multiple perspectives, are rendered within the strict confines of a black-and-white palette. Perhaps inspired by the India ink drawings of lines, circles, triangles, and squares that he made in 1966, Held had already begun moving away from the flat, boldly-colored shapes of his earlier work. Using charcoal and white acrylic directly on canvas, he started sketching multi-dimensional, interlocking configurations, surrounding them with colored ground. In late 1967, this B/W V 1967-68 acrylic on canvas experimentation yielded to an increasingly graphic, complex, and illusory 114 x 114 in 289.6 x 289.6 cm space. While compositions were still worked out on the canvas, often in several iterations, Held’s soft-edged charcoal was replaced by the sharply defined contours of uniformly painted forms, their thick black outlines positioned against a stark white field. The paintings featured in this exhibition encompass the initial phase of this new body of work. The “B/W series” is comprised of Held’s first fully realized canvases in his new style and limited palette, while works from the “Phoenicia” series are more explicit in their development of multiple perspectives and vanishing points, resulting in evermore ambiguous spatial relationships.

  • American Painting During the Cold War
    Artforum, May 1973 American Painting During the Cold War Max Kozloff This article is a somewhat revised version of the introduction to the catalogue of the exhibition, "Twenty-five Years of American Painting 1948–1973," organized by James T. Demetrion at the Des Moines Art Center (Josef Albers, Ron Davis, Richard Diebenkorn, Richard Estes, Sam Francis, Helen Frankenthaler, Robert Irwin, Jasper Johns, Ellsworth Kelly, Willem de Kooning, Roy Lichtenstein, Richard Lindner, Morris Louis, Barnett Newman, Kenneth Noland, Philip Pearlstein, Jackson Pollock, Robert Rauschenberg, Mark Rothko, Frank Stella, Clyfford Still, Wayne Thiebaud, Mark Tobey, Andy Warhol, and William T. Wiley, March 6– April 22, 1973). Catalogue: 72 pages, perfect bound, 9 3/4" square, 23 black-and-white illustrations, 23 colorplates, brief bibliography, $7.00. All colorplates used here are somewhat reduced in size and courtesy of the Des Moines art Center. More celebrated than its counterparts in letters, architecture, and music, American postwar art has become a success story that begs, not to be retold, but told freshly for this decade. The most recent as well as most exhaustive book on Abstract Expressionism is Irving Sandler's The Triumph of American Painting, a title that sums up the self-congratulatory mood of many who participated in its career. Three years ago, the Metropolitan Museum enshrined 43 artists of the New York School, 1940–1970, as one pageant in the chapter of its own centennial. Though elevated as a cultural monument of an unassailable but also a fatiguing grandeur, the virtues of this painting and sculpture will survive the present period in which they are taken too much for granted.

  • Split Decisions- When Critics Change Their Minds
    AUTHENTICATION IN ART Art News Service Split Decisions: When Critics Change Their Minds BY Ann Landi POSTED 02/19/13 What makes art critics revise their opinions? Some mind-changing critics explain When a politician flip-flops on a position, the public and the press alike are quick to cry foul, hurling accusations of bad faith or pandering. But when an art critic changes his or her mind, the ripple effect is likely much smaller, piquing the attention of only staunch loyalists, other critics, or the artist in question. Nonetheless, when venerable critic Peter Schjeldahl’s blog post titled “Changing My Mind About Gustav Klimt’s ‘Adele’” appeared on the New Yorker’s website last June, we took note. Schjeldahl did not so much do a complete about-face on the glittering 1907 portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer, the 25-year-old wife of an Austrian industrialist. He downgraded it from a work of art that he’d called “transcendent in its cunning way” six years earlier to a “largish, flattish The New Yorker’s Peter Schjeldahl used to think that Gustav Klimt’s 1907 painting Adele Bloch-Bauer I was “gorgeous.” Now, he calls it a bauble . classic less of its time than of ours, by “mess.” sole dint of the money sunk in it.” NEUE GALERIE, NEW YORK, ACQUISITION MADE AVAILABLE IN PART THROUGH THE GENEROSITY OF THE HEIRS OF THE ESTATES OF FERDINAND AND ADELE BLOCH-BAUER “I’d kind of given it a pass the first time around,” Schjeldahl says. “After seeing it repeatedly for many years, I decided, ‘This is a mess.’ The first impression is that it’s absolutely gorgeous.

    Prof. Kent Minturn Jackson Pollock and the New York School New York University, Fall 2017 CORE-UA 720 | Class#: 17338 | Session: 1 | Section: 001 T-TH 12:30-1:45 Course Description: Jackson Pollock and the New York School will examine the life, artistic career and legacy of Jackson Pollock (one the most important though least understood American painters) against the broader background of 20th-century American art, Abstract Expressionism, Pop, Postmodernism, and the rise of new media. Concomitantly, this course will introduce students to the existing critical literature on Abstract Expressionism, Jackson Pollock, and his legacy. We will begin by revisiting the Armory Show of 1913, an important exhibition that introduced modern art to American audiences. After this we will look at Pollock’s humble American Scene paintings of the 1930s and discuss his relationship with his mentor, the popular but controversial Regionalist painter, Thomas Hart Benton. Then we will move on to consider the relationship between Pollock and the émigré French Surrealists (notably André Breton, Max Ernst, André Masson) who arrived in New York in 1940. Pollock’s fascination with the Surrealists’ “automatist” experiments eventually led to the his famous “drip” technique. From here we will examine how Pollock’s move “beyond the easel” inspired second-generation postwar American artists, including Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, Allan Kaprow, Eve Hesse and Andy Warhol. And finally, we will consider Pollock’s “afterlife” in photography, film and new media.
