    WSJ. Magazine April 25, 2013 GAGOSIAN GALLERY Now, Voyager Born and raised in Rhode Island, with studios in New York and Rotterdam, the artist Ellen Gallagher—now celebrated with simultaneous exhibitions on either side of the Atlantic—draws upon fact, fantasy and traces of her own meandering life. By Julie L. Belcove Photography by James Mollison BLUE HEAVEN | Gallagher in her studio in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, with an untitled work in progress. The painting will be part of an exhibition of the artist's work at the New Museum in New York, opening in June. IT WOULD BE EASY to connect the dots of Ellen Gallagher's biography and come up with two different but equally inspiring story lines. In one account, Gallagher, the biracial daughter of an Irish-American mother and an African-American father, grows up to make art about the subtle but profound ways racial stereotypes pervade our culture. Another version has Gallagher, born and raised in Providence, Rhode Island, a maritime city where whaling once thrived, shipping out aboard an Alaskan commercial fishing boat and later spending a college term living on a schooner, studying tiny water snails. Dividing her time between studios in New York and Rotterdam, another port city, she makes art that frequently takes the ocean and its centuries-old link to human migration, as a prime subject. Both plots lead to great critical acclaim, representation by the powerhouse Gagosian Gallery and exhibitions at some of the world's foremost museums, including the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Museum of Modern Art.

  • THE MARY H. DANA WOMEN ARTISTS SERIES: from Idea to Institution
    4 THE JOURNAL OF THE THE MARY H. DANA WOMEN ARTISTS SERIES: From Idea to Institution BY BERYL K. SMITH Ms. Smith is Librarian at the Rutgers University Art Library During the 1960s, women began to identify and admit that social, political, and cultural inequities existed, and to seek redress. In 1966, a structural solidarity took shape with the founding of NOW (National Organization for Women). Women artists, sympathetic to the aims of this movement, recog- nized the need for a coalition with a more specific direction, and, at the height of the women's movement, several groups were formed that uniquely focused on issues of concern to women artists. In 1969 W.A.R. (Women Artists in Revolution) grew out of the Art Worker's Coalition, an anti- establishment group. In 1970 the Ad Hoc Women Artists Committee was formed, initially to increase the representation of women in the Whitney Museum annuals but later a more broad-based purpose of political and legal action and a program of regular discussions was adopted. Across the country, women artists were organizing in consciousness-raising sessions, joining hands in support groups, and picketing and protesting for the relief of injustices that they felt were rampant in the male-dominated art world. In January 1971, Linda Nochlin answered the question she posed in her now famous and widely cited article, "Why Have There Been No Great Women Artists?" Nochlin maintained that the exclusion of women from social and cultural institutions was the root cause that created a kind of cultural malnourishment of women.1 In June 1971, a new unity led the Los Angeles Council of Women Artists to threaten to sue the Los Angeles County Museum for discrimination.2 That same year, at Cal Arts (California In- stitute of the Arts) Judy Chicago and Miriam Schapiro developed the first women's art program in the nation.3 These bicoastal activities illustrate merely the high points of the women's art movement, forming an historical framework and providing the emotional climate for the beginning of the Women Artists Series at Douglass College.

Courtesy the artist. Photo: Amunga Eshuchi. Right: The Otolith Group, Hydra Decapita (film still), 2010. Courtesy the artists New York, NY, July 9, 2013—This fall, The Studio Museum in Harlem is thrilled to present The Shadows Took Shape, a dynamic interdisciplinary exhibition exploring contemporary art through the lens of Afrofuturist aesthetics. Coined in 1994 by writer Mark Dery in his essay “Black to the Future,” the term “Afrofuturism” refers to a creative and intellectual genre that emerged as a strategy to explore science fiction, fantasy, magical realism and pan-Africanism. With roots in the avant-garde musical stylings of sonic innovator Sun Ra (born Herman Poole Blount, 1914–1993), Afrofuturism has been used by artists, writers and theorists as a way to prophesize the future, redefine the present and reconceptualize the past. The Shadows Took Shape will be one of the few major museum exhibitions to explore the ways in which this form of creative expression has been adopted internationally and highlight the range of work made over the past twenty-five years. On view at The Studio Museum in Harlem from November 14, 2013 to March 9, 2014, the exhibition draws its title from an obscure Sun Ra poem and a posthumously released series of recordings.

Markovitz Dr. Susan K. Leshnoff, Advisor Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS IN MUSEUM PROFESSIONS Seton Hall University December 2008 Abstract As American society becomes more diverse, issues of ethnic self· consciousness are increasingly prevalent. This can be witnessed by the national expansion and development of ethnic museums. At least twenty-five museums representing different ethnicities are located in New York City alone. These museums reach out to their own constituency as a celebration of heritage and culture. In an effort to educate others and foster a greater understanding and appreciation of their culture, they also reach out to a diverse multi-cultural audience. Following suit, Jewish museums attract a diverse audience representing a variety of religions and ethnicities. Jewish Museums - A Multi-Cultural Destination explores how this audience is reached through exhibition and education initiatives.
