Connecticut Humanities (CTH), a non-profit affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), has awarded a Quick Grant for $3500 to support dynamic programs accompanying the exhibition. Robin Jaffee Frank, Director of Strategy and Development, said “We’re most grateful to the Connecticut Humanities for funding programs—a keynote lecture, a moderated panel discussion, and a family day of storytelling—that will engage visitors of every age and explore the benefits of art, creativity, and discovery across generations.” ReFRAMING Aging will debunk myths about aging, deepen visitors’ understanding of why lifelong creativity matters, and inspire intergenerational bonds—illuminating what it means to age creatively in our youth- oriented society when people are living longer. The public is invited to the opening reception and keynote lecture by James Kaufman, Ph.D., on Sat., Feb. 16 from 2 – 4 pm. As it nears its centenary, Silvermine is shining a light on its true legacy and the vital role artists’ communities play in American culture.

    THE JEAN-NOËL HERLIN ARCHIVE PROJECT Jean-Noël Herlin New York City 2005 Table of Contents Introduction i Individual artists and performers, collaborators, and groups 1 Individual artists and performers, collaborators, and groups. Selections A-D 77 Group events and clippings by title 109 Group events without title / Organizations 129 Periodicals 149 Introduction In the context of my activity as an antiquarian bookseller I began in 1973 to acquire exhibition invitations/announcements and poster/mailers on painting, sculpture, drawing and prints, performance, and video. I was motivated by the quasi-neglect in which these ephemeral primary sources in art history were held by American commercial channels, and the project to create a database towards the bibliographic recording of largely ignored material. Documentary value and thinness were my only criteria of inclusion. Sources of material were random. Material was acquired as funds could be diverted from my bookshop. With the rapid increase in number and diversity of sources, my initial concept evolved from a documentary to a study archive project on international visual and performing arts, reflecting the appearance of new media and art making/producing practices, globalization, the blurring of lines between high and low, and the challenges to originality and quality as authoritative criteria of classification and appreciation. In addition to painting, sculpture, drawing and prints, performance and video, the Jean-Noël Herlin Archive Project includes material on architecture, design, caricature, comics, animation, mail art, music, dance, theater, photography, film, textiles and the arts of fire. It also contains material on galleries, collectors, museums, foundations, alternative spaces, and clubs.

It’s a bit cerebral at times…but fun. "The Bachelors Visit New York," a first rate collage by the deft hand of Jonathan Talbot, features a group of men in 19th century dress, frozen on a loud checked floor and background refuse…mysteriously oblivious to a cop aiming a gun at them. Talbot’s series of nine small pieces are exquisite, brilliantly layered configurations. "Ra," a ceramic, 3D piece by Jackie Shatz, is an intricate, biomorphic shape unfurling from the wall with undulating tendrils that dive into canals and cavernous spaces.
