Oral history is a modern research technique involving an interviewee and an informed interviewer in spontaneous conversation. The taped record is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The resulting manuscript is typed in final form, indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************************************ All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Kay Sekimachi dated April 16, 1995.

Penny, "Progressional Journeys: Compelling New Directions for Three “New Basketry” Artists" (2010). Textile Society of America Symposium Proceedings. 11. https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/tsaconf/11 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by the Textile Society of America at DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. It has been accepted for inclusion in Textile Society of America Symposium Proceedings by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln. PROGRESSIONAL JOURNEYS: COMPELLING NEW DIRECTIONS FOR THREE “NEW BASKETRY” ARTISTS JUDITH PENNEY BURTON [email protected] This paper is based upon and dedicated to three amazing artists and their bodies of work which have inspired me immensely for many years now: Dorothy Gill Barnes, Kay Sekimachi, and Patricia Hickman. This paper is essentially derived from primary research material that was gleaned from Skype and telephone interviews with the artists by the author. The first criterion for selecting these specific women to interview was their major influence upon their peers during the “new basketry” movement, in conjunction with their intense commitment to material engagement in their work. In the end, however, these women were chosen due to the fact that all three are life-long learners who continue to forge along exciting trajectories with their art practices by engaging and blending techniques that they had mastered over the decades in new and exciting ways, often with materials that were new to them.

    Recent Acquisitions: Inclusive and Diverse, February 18, 2000-April 16, 2000 For more than a century, The RISD Museum has been actively collecting art from all ages and cultures. This is consistent with the shared mission of the Museum and School of Design to promote "the general advancement of public Art Education, by the exhibition of works of Art ..." In any given year, several hundred objects enter the permanent collection through donation, purchase, and bequest. The Museum's holdings included approximately 80,000 artworks at last count. Visitors often wonder why museums acquire some works of art and not others. This exhibition presents a selection of objects acquired over the past five years by the Museum's six curatorial departments: Ancient Art, Asian Art, Costume and Textiles, Decorative Arts, Painting and Sculpture, and Prints, Drawings, and Photographs. Other recent acquisitions are displayed in the Museum's various permanent collection galleries. For this exhibition, the labels accompanying each object take a new approach. In addition to identifying the artist, date, materials, and donor's name, each label explains why a particular object is an appropriate addition to the Museum's collection. Among the often cited reasons for acquiring works of art are: • to augment existing collection strengths • to extend the range of holdings into new areas of collecting and to respond to an expanding and culturally diverse audience • to support teaching at the School of Design, a priority that sets The RISD Museum apart from many other art museums • to present works of strong visual impact -- beauty as its own reward There are many objects whose fragility does not allow extended exposure to light and air (for example, textiles, watercolors, and silver).

  • THE DOMESTIC PLANE May 20, 2018, to January 13, 2019
    For Immediate Release THE DOMESTIC PLANE May 20, 2018, to January 13, 2019 The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum is pleased to present The Domestic Plane: New Perspectives on Tabletop Art Objects, a meta-group exhibition in five chapters—organized by five curators, including more than seventy artists—that will feature tabletop art objects from the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The experience could be likened to theatre, as viewers encounter objects that interact with each other, their audience, their setting, forging relationships to be examined and meanings to be discovered in their adventurous methods of display. The Domestic Plane will be on view at The Aldrich from May 20, 2018 to January 13, 2019. Objects Like Us includes the work of more than fifty artists, including Robert Arneson, Mary Bauermeister, Genesis Belanger, Lynn Hershman Leeson, Christian Holstad, Tetsumi Kudo, Thomas Lanigan-Schmidt, Alice Mackler, Sheila Pepe, Vanessa Safavi, Katy Schimert, Rudy Shepherd, Francis Upritchard, and Nari Ward. This chapter explores the relational behavior of intimately scaled objects that personify or embody a human condition or attribute that transmits a performative potentiality, aura, or beingness, demonstrative of an action or activity. More than fifty artists will be represented in the exhibition. The objects will span nearly sixty years, including works conceived specifically for the exhibition (2017‒18). Artist/curator David Adamo will create a site-specific floor installation comprised of white school chalk laid out in a herringbone pattern to mimic antique parquet; over time the chalk will crack and crumble, tracing the viewers’ movements. The overall experience will underscore the efficacy of the works’ relativity and illuminate the interconnectedness of audience and objects, enhanced by a distinctive method of display.

Weston M. Andress In addition to being the driving force behind the founding of the museum, women provided Chair, The Mint Museum Board of Trustees exemplary leadership throughout the years as both staff and volunteer supporters. And the museum devoted its anniversary year to celebrating women artists – long a mainstay of its permanent collection – with two headlining exhibitions. Dr. Kathleen V.
