    C A H U I L L A Sculpture by Lewis deSoto C A H U I L L A Sculpture by Lewis deSoto Essay by Nick Stone Published by sotolux press ©2006 Lewis deSoto, CAHUILLA, customized truck, Jacquard tapestry, sound and lighting system, Installation at the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum, Ridgefield, CT, 2006 Photograph by Terri Garneau 360 Lb.-ft. One Ton Mash-up Lewis deSoto’s Cahuilla is a product of the surreal, poetic simultaneity found in dreams, a manifestation in three gleaming dimensions of the rhizomatic “and… and… and…” idiom which Deleuze and Guattari declared muscular enough to wrestle with ontology itself. One imagines a dreamer’s breathless description to a bemused companion upon awakening: “It was an enormous truck, painted with the colors of the desert… and it was also kind of a giant dollar bill, with the same lettering and symbols that money has… and it was also a casino – there was a woven craps table on the back and I could see the slot machine lights and hear the dealers… and at the same time, the dealers’ voices were chanting in Cahuilla… it was unbelievable.” Too, like a dream, Cahuilla is a vehicle capable of taking its passenger on a ride that is both sensual and conceptual; many of the components in its sequence of familiar forms are themselves transitive, stealthily piloted by an interior significance. In elements ranging from luxurious aluminum customizations to traditional beaded and woven motifs and a hybridized soundtrack, deSoto refers to a singular convergence of indigeneous tradition, newfound economic prosperity, a distinctly regional form of reified self- expression and the practical needs of desert survival.

  • Jan | Feb | March | 2020
    jan | feb | march | 2020 SANTA BARBARA MUSEUM OF ART from the director Dear Members, Happy New Year! The year 2020 is truly one for celebrating! The Museum continues to present groundbreaking exhibitions, including that of Tatsuo Miyajima. On view through April 19, this exciting installation represents the artist’s first solo U.S. museum exhibition in over two decades and the rare opportunity to experience the captivating and immersive light-based work that embodies his Buddhist practice. In addition, a selection of small-format American paintings will grace a section of Ridley-Tree Gallery in later March, highlighting the important Preston Morton Collection of American art. This installation is an impressive reminder of the breadth of the Museum’s holdings in that area and includes beautiful works by Frederic Edwin Church, Thomas Eakins, Walter Gay, and William Merritt Chase, just to name a few. The ever-popular Parallel Stories Lecture Series returns with Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jane Smiley in February and former California and U.S. Poet Laureate Juan Felipe Herrera in March. In addition, Art Matters makes a comeback this winter season with engaging lectures by eminent scholars on the artists Michelangelo and Frederick Hammersley. Finally, this year marks the beginning of the countdown to the October 11 re-opening of SBMA’s galleries, which have been closed due to the current renovation project. This will be the first time that Members and visitors will have the opportunity to experience the extraordinary transformation of the Museum, including new dedicated exhibition spaces for contemporary art, photography, and new media; a breathtaking re- installation of Ludington Court; a new grand staircase; and refined finishes and state-of-the-art lighting.

Lewis deSoto Paranirvana (Self-Portrait) Newly-Commissioned Work Breathes Life into Santa Barbara Museum of Art’s Historic Ludington Court On View April 17 – July 31, 2016 April 15, 2016―Lewis deSoto’s multi-media works are informed by the artist’s long-standing interest in anthropology, history, mythology, and religion. All are engaged in the artist’s forthcoming solo exhibition—an installation featuring his monumental scale, inflatable sculpture, Paranirvana (Self-Portrait) (1999–2015). Inspired by the 12th-century Buddha at Gal Vihara in Sri Lanka, and conceived in the wake of his father’s death, this work serves as not only a representation of universal life, death, and supreme consciousness; but also, embellished with features similar to the artist, a self-portrait. The 26-foot-long Paranirvana (Self-Portrait) is activated―or rather brought to life―with an industrial fan, which inflates (inhales) when switched on at the beginning of the day, and deflates (exhales) when switched off at closing. As such, the work provides allusions to the spiritual breath (Prana) in Hindu philosophy, prevalent in the common practice of yoga. Enormous yet ephemeral, witty yet also thought-provoking, Paranirvana (Self-Portrait) rouses reflections upon existence, loss, and spirituality. Paranirvana

    The Postcolonial Contemporary John Zarobell I assure you, my cemetery has no recollection Of unmarked mass graves, scattered bone fragments; That skull and cross-bones over the gate? Added by Disney— Leftover prop from Zorro. Adds a little romance. —Deborah Miranda, from “Interviews with California Missions” Today Junípero Serra is being canonized by Pope Francis in Washington DC. Fr. Serra is the Franciscan friar who started the missions in present-day California and was thus responsible for the resettlement and Christianization of the Native populations here, including countless deaths, beatings, rapes, imprisonment, and the repression of cultural practices, languages, and traditions. For most descendants of these California natives, it is clear this man was no saint. The pope has his reasons of course, and for the first new-world pope, honoring the Spanish settlers of California is a way of honoring all of the Spanish-speaking Catholics of the United States, many of whom followed in Fr. Serra’s footsteps by walking north into California from Mexico. Yet the sanctification of colonial domination underlines many unanswered questions in the history of the lands we occupy and other territories around the world. In some sense these issues have been buried, particularly in the United States, by the marginalization of the native population and alienation of these people from their traditional lands. Colonial displacement has often been made invisible by countless historical changes that have occurred, but artists continue to disinter meaning from the colonial encounter and the long shadow it casts across the landscape. The advent of postcolonial studies has flooded the intellectual market with excavations of so many dimensions of the colonial past and its present ramifications in our ways of thinking and coming to terms with the world.

  • Sister Cities Are Shining Paths at Sfo
    NEWS February 16, 2007 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Contact: Michael C. McCarron Director, Bureau of Community Affairs (650) 821-4000 [email protected] SF-07-07 SISTER CITIES ARE SHINING PATHS AT SFO Sister City Art Installation Marks 50th Anniversary of San Francisco’s Sister City Relationship with Osaka SAN FRANCISCO -- The San Francisco International Airport (SFO) and the San Francisco Arts Commission unveiled the art installation Shining Paths: San Francisco’s Sister Cities, an illumination of the City’s fourteen sister city relationships by Bay Area artist and teacher Lewis deSoto, at a press conference in SFO’s International Terminal prior to the departure of members of the Osaka Sister City Committee on United Flight 885, bound for Kansai International Airport (KIX). The delegation, including Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi and Public Defender Jeff Adachi, is traveling to Japan to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the sister city relationship between San Francisco and Osaka. Shining Paths is an extension of the installation On the Air, which was commissioned as part of the International Terminal construction, completed in 2000. On the Air is a 12,000 square foot design in terrazzo, with bronze medallions on the floor of the Airport’s International Terminal’s arrival lobby area. The terrazzo design features a global isobar map, with 160 bronze medallions representing international airports around the world. The imagery for the medallions is created from the actual airport landing approach plates used by pilots. Shining Paths uses the same aeronautical map imagery for each city’s airport, overlaid with the image of the city’s flower.

    K L S Lewis deSoto K L S Works by Lewis deSoto Essay by Nick Stone published by sotolux press ©2007 1 2 KLS Preface, 2006, 34"x34" pigment on paper Symphony of Colors . KLS represents a conversation, a relay of sorts, between three artists: the American Lewis deSoto, noted for his singular talent for colliding media; the German Hermann Hesse, author of classics like Siddharta, Steppenwolf, and The Glass Bead Game; and the fictional Klingsor, hero of Hesse's 1919 novella, Klingsor's Last Summer. These are our players: deSoto, Hesse, and Klingsor. The relay, then, takes place as follows: deSoto sampling Hesse writing Klingsor painting Montagnola. Taking Montagnola as a center point and working our way outward, from Klingsor to Hesse to deSoto, a concentric spiral of inspiration and artistic engagement emerges to which KLS provides a satisfying visual counterpart. We begin in 1919, in the village of Montagnola, part of the the Italian-speaking canton of Ticino in southern Switzerland. Here a middle-aged painter named Klingsor drinks the heady wine of his last days, feverishly painting his natural surroundings and ultimately composing one final masterpiece, a self-portrait, before his death. Klingsor's story is told in seven chapters; despite their linear succession from page to page, their sense of time is more cyclical than linear. Even Klingsor's death is confirmed as an event not in the final chapter, but early in the preface: in a typically masterful Hesse gambit, we begin with Klingsor's end. The novella proceeds, not as a straightforward narrative, but as a symphony of vibrant sensations ranging from the ecstatic to the terrible.

  • IMPERIAL AMERICA Lewis Desoto IMPERIAL AMERICA
    IMPERIAL AMERICA Lewis deSoto IMPERIAL AMERICA Sculpture by Lewis deSoto Essay by Nick Stone ©2011 Lewis deSoto sotolux press WHISKY TANGO FOXTROT On my first trip to see Lewis deSoto's Imperial America in person, I turned the corner of a gallery wall to find the sculpture literally aimed at me. Of course, one can walk around the Imperial and take it in from all angles – but one's first experience of the work is as its target, a deer in the headlights. Approaching the piece, one senses imminent danger, both from the capacity of this oversized vehicle to mow one down and, of course, from the lethal potential energy of its cargo. Then there is the shine. "It's the ultimate chrome-mobile," my companion whispered appreciatively as we approached the Imperial. The work's interaction with light is key to its visual impact. Every surface except for the tires (and the missile) gleams sumptuously; even the interior upholstery glitters, thanks to gold and silver threads. Chrome spans nearly every curve and face of the car, turning the entire object into a two ton mirror. The car reflects its surroundings to such an extent that one feels as though the car's environment is contained, even possessed by its surface; an inherent power is evident even in its capacity to visually swallow the world around it. In fact, there is so much chrome and so many decorative accoutrements on the car that it is easy to ignore the replica of a Redstone nuclear missile sitting atop it. The car is all aesthetics: any auto enthusiast will quickly point out that, like most luxury cars of its age, the Imperial's styling and detail are paramount, vastly outweighing any performance or safety considerations.

  • (LACMA) Is Pleased to Present the Jeweled Isle: Art from Sri Lanka, the First Comprehensive Survey of Sri Lankan Art Organized by a U.S
    Image captions on page 4 (Los Angeles—October 18, 2018) The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) is pleased to present The Jeweled Isle: Art from Sri Lanka, the first comprehensive survey of Sri Lankan art organized by a U.S. museum. Drawn in part from LACMA’s collection of Sri Lankan art, and including numerous domestic and international loans, the exhibition presents some 250 works addressing nearly two millennia of Sri Lankan history. In 2009, Sri Lanka emerged from a nearly 30 year- long civil war fought along ethnic and religious divides. The Jeweled Isle presents a timely exploration and celebration of a geographically complex, ethnically diverse, and multicultural South Asian hub. The exhibition is curated by Dr. Robert L. Brown and Dr. Tushara Bindu Gude, of LACMA’s South and Southeast Asian Art Department, and is designed by Los Angeles-based architecture firm Escher GuneWardena Architecture. “LACMA has a long history of collecting South and Southeast Asian art and its Sri Lankan holdings are more expansive and diverse in range than those found in any other U.S. collection,” said LACMA CEO and Wallis Annenberg Director Michael Govan. “These works are at the heart of this exhibition.” According to the exhibition curators, “Sri Lankan culture developed in a complex web of foreign influences and local customs that have never been fully explored in previous exhibitions. These multiple influences were woven together in a fusion that is uniquely Sri Lankan. The art shown in The Jeweled Isle reflects this development and also offers a window onto Sri Lanka’s rich history and culture.” The image of a bejeweled isle, invoked in ancient Sanskrit texts and in Greco-Roman accounts of Sri Lanka’s precious gems, inspired numerous literary descriptions of the island’s wealth and lush tropical beauty.

  • UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Indigenous Artists
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Indigenous Artists, Ingenuity, and Resistance at the California Missions After 1769 A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Art History by Yve Barthelemy Chavez 2017 © Copyright by Yve Barthelemy Chavez 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Indigenous Artists, Ingenuity, and Resistance at the California Missions After 1769 by Yve Barthelemy Chavez Doctor of Philosophy in Art History University of California, Los Angeles, 2017 Professor Charlene Villaseñor Black, Chair This dissertation aims to place California Indian agency and artistry at the forefront of California mission art studies through close analysis of Chumash and Tongva practices at four of Southern California’s missions: San Gabriel, San Buenaventura, Santa Barbara, and Santa Inés. Although the mission churches and their decorations reflect European stylistic influences, all twenty-one mission sites are the products of California Indian ingenuity and resistance. By examining primary accounts and ethnographic sources, this dissertation presents an Indigenous reading of Chumash and Tongva dances, stone sculpting, basket weaving, and painting carried out under great adversity at the missions. After entering the missions, California Indians continued to practice their ancestors’ traditions that pre-dated the Franciscan friars’ 1769 arrival. California Indian artists also combined local materials with European and Mexican styles, which gave their art and the mission buildings a unique appearance. This dissertation draws upon decolonizing methodologies, rooted in interdisciplinary studies, to deconstruct Eurocentric biases in archival ii sources and romanticized misunderstandings in historical scholarship about mission art and California Indian contributions. The traditional art historical tools of formal analysis and iconography bring to light the artistic talents of California’s first peoples and dignify Indigenous art on its own terms.
