www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 9 www.albertacraft.ab.ca Urban Wild ALBERTA CRAFT COUNCIL GALLERY, EDMONTON AB – Mar 30-May 4, 2013 Urban Wild features the work of nine members of the Calgary Clay Arts Association, a collective of professional ceramic artists. The participating artists are Mindy Andrews, Connie Cooper, Louise Cormier, Krista Gowland, Connie Pike, Kathy Ransom, Monika Smith, Darlene Swan and Susan Thorpe. Viewers may be familiar with many of the artists from the Urban Wild exhibit in Calgary in 2011, where the pieces were displayed in Open Space’s down - town 7th Avenue window. The Alberta Craft Council exhib - it showcases ceramic pieces exploring conceptual notions of “wild” and wilderness in the urban environment. The works range from functional to Darlene Swan, Just Dandy, Lions (2011), earthenware clay, glazed [Alberta sculptural, from single pieces to installa - Craft Council Gallery, Edmonton AB, Mar 30-May 4] tions. As the curators note, the wild doesn’t necessarily go away when cities are built, and there are often unintended consequences. Some are striking yet familiar: the shadow of flying geese on downtown highrises, bunnies and birds in corner lots and parks, mushrooms and dandelions along laneways and sidewalks. The works in the exhibit have a gentle touch and unassuming appearance. Many are playful and even whimsical. The wild horses that once pastured in today’s suburbs are captured on a Grecian-style urn, and a set of tall skinny buildings are topped with fir trees. Mia Johnson

Guest-curator Mary-Beth LaViolette revisits a decade of social and cultural change, when the city almost dou - Exhibition photo bled in size and artists embraced traditional art forms in new, vibrant and occasionally controversial ways. Media represented include printmaking, sculpture, ceramics, painting and textiles, with artists ranging from Marion Nicoll and Janet Mitchell to John Hall and Greg Arnold. Look, too, for work by First Nations artists Gerald Tailfeathers and Alex Janvier. DAVID JANZEN: TRANSFER STATION Art Gallery of Alberta, Edmon - ton, Mar 9-Jun 16 Janzen’s series of landscape paintings poses heaps of broken furniture and rows of junked appliances against David Janzen misty and mountainous vistas suggestive of the Romantic sub - lime. Basing his imagery on his photographs and sketches he made of landfill sites across Alberta, the artist beguiles us with the beauty of his technique while confronting us with evidence of the impact we are having on our natural environment. BARBARA TIPTON Alberta Craft Council Gallery, Edmonton, Apr 6- Jul 2 This Calgary-based ceramic artist pushes the sculptural and material boundaries of her medium. Working with the basic forms of the cup and saucer, she experiments with slab-built and hands-free, wheel-thrown techniques, rapidly improvising shapes in wet clay, and later building up layers of glaze to create unexpected colours and textures. “I’m constantly on the look - out,” the artist writes, “for something that seems to ring true as Barbara Tipton an expression, a sidelong glance, a dim remembrance.” OSCAR CAHÉN: CANADA’S GROUNDBREAKING ILLUSTRATOR Whyte Museum of the Canadian Rockies, Banff, Apr 6-Jun 2 Oscar Cahén is one of Canada’s leading mid-20th century abstractionists and a member of Toronto’s avant-garde group of artists, Painters Eleven. This exhibition, however, examines his extraordinarily accom - plished illustrations, produced between 1931 and 1954. The bril - liance of this work is underscored by the turbulent circumstances of Cahén’s tragically short life. Born and trained in Europe, he fled Nazi persecution, only to land as an “enemy alien” in an intern - ment camp in Canada. Released in 1942, he lived in Montreal and then in Toronto, and was just hitting his stride as an artist when he was killed in a car accident in 1956 at the age of 40. Oscar Cahen MARIE LANNOO Newzones, Calgary, May 11-Jun 29 This -based artist builds up many translucent layers of brilliantly coloured paint to create abstractions whose surfaces shift and shimmer, reflecting light and mirroring the viewer. Suggestions of human presence float above the seemingly liquid depths of Lannoo’s work, challenging our perceptions of light, colour, and dimensionality and confounding our understanding Marie Lannoo of the relationship between abstraction and representation. www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 11 www.reed.edu/gallery First Hand: Civil War Era Drawings from the Becker Collection, Boston College DOUGLAS F. COOLEY MEMORIAL ART GALLERY, REED COLLEGE, PORTLAND OR – Feb 5-Apr 20, 2013 The American artist Joseph Becker (1841-1910) and his colleagues worked as artist-reporters during the Civil War.

recently uncovered by © Unknown Artist, Sketches at the General Hospital in Richmond, Virginia (April 1865), graphite on Becker’s heirs. The Becker toned paper [Douglas F. Cooley Memorial Art Gallery, Reed College, Portland OR, Feb 5-Apr 20] Collection at Boston Col- lege contains over 600 previously undocumented and unexhibited drawings. Initially these works were created for Frank Leslie’s Illustrated Newspaper where Becker began working as an errand boy before his natural artistic talent was encouraged, and he was dispatched to accompany the Union Army and send back drawings of his observations. Known as “Special Artists,” these 19th-century war correspondents completed their drawings in the field and were responsible for capturing battles, movements of troops, military architecture and other daily activities at a time when photography was too young a technology to serve this purpose. Their infor- mational renderings were soon after sent back for publication where they were transformed into wood engravings, then cast as metal plates that could be printed. The images in First Hand extend beyond the Civil War era when Special Artists were assigned west- ward to document the expansion of the nation. Becker journeyed across the Great Plains recording the landscape and also traveled across the Rockies on the first Pullman train. Some other highlights of this insightful collection include subjects of railroad expansion, Chicago in the wake of the Great Fire and Chinese immigrant culture in San Francisco.

wwww.eskerfoundation.com Splendid Isolation ESKER FOUNDATION, CALGARY AB – Jan 19-Apr 21, 2013 The Esker Foundation’s third exhibit, Splen - did Isolation , is an immense showcase of photographs taken over 30 years by four Alberta photographers: Olga Chagaoutdinova, Miruna Dragan, Orest Semchishen and George Webber. It features more than 140 prints shot in different locations between 1976 and 2013, from the prairies of Canada to the United States, Mexico, Cuba and Russia. The images range in size from a row of small photos to mural-sized images covering entire walls. With unifying themes of home, privacy and daily life, the photographs afford glimpses of “an empty sadness” in pictures that are simple yet timeless and memorable. Webber and Semchishen use a classic documentary style to capture portraits of the prairie in all its splendour and isolation. Web - ber has been photographing the people and land - scape of the Canadian west for over thirty years.

Images are presented in a montage against a ground of shifting colour, and includes every- thing that caught Wong’s eye. Patterns, textures, colours, friends, architecture, scenes of travel, digital displays, fruit, flow- ers, animals, satellite dishes, art, politicians and celebrities – all flicker by as if in a digital flip book. Projected on the west wall of the Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre, the Surrey Urban Screen is curated by the Surrey Art Gallery.

FIONA HOWARTH: BONEYARD Fort Gallery, Langley, Mar 27-Apr 14 Fiona Howarth Defunct and discarded signs, once brilliantly lit on the Las Vegas strip and now consigned to a junkyard at the edge of the Nevada desert, are the subject of Howarth’s solo show. Her recurring themes of time, memory and loss are well realized in images of broken bulbs, peeling paint and fading invitations to gambling and free parking. “My interest,” she writes, “lies in the aesthetics of decay and the interplay between light, form, texture and colour.” INVOKING VENUS: FEATHERS AND FASHION Beaty Biodiversity Museum, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Feb 7-May 5 Photographer Catherine Stewart has focused her camera on bird specimens located at the Beaty Biodiversity Museum and acces- sories from the clothing collections of Claus Jahnke and Ivan Sayers. Her gorgeous, close-up images of avian plumage and Catherine Stewart [detail] vintage fabrics highlight colour, pattern and texture, and are complemented by displays of feathery hats, purses, fans and shoes. Courtship behaviours and the attractions of adornment in both birds and humans are richly highlighted. LYLE WILSON: PAINT Gallery, Vancouver, Mar 27-Sep 15 Haisla artist Lyle Wilson is renowned for his wood sculpture, gold and silver jewellery, printmaking, drawing and painting on wood or paper. Organized by the Maple Ridge Art Gallery and on view for the first time in Vancouver, this show focuses exclu- sively on his paintings; the subjects include crest animals like whales and ravens to maps of Aboriginal territories to hybrid alphabets. All explore the signs and symbols of evolving visual and Lyle Wilson verbal languages and their relationship to indigenous culture. ANDY WOOLDRIDGE Winchester Galleries, Victoria, Apr 9-27 Titled Chiaroscuro: Variations on a Theme, Wooldridge’s new series of paintings combine flat passages of rich colour with con- trasting effects of glowing white and deep black. Whether depicting the natural or built environment, he treats his canvas “as a stage set with simplified shapes and forms deliberately placed to produce an artificial landscape.” The peaceful yet high- ly charged images are reminiscent of the Italian Metaphysical school in their suggestion of an alternative reality. Andy Wooldridge

22 PREVIEW I APRIL/MAY 20 13 Vignettes • April/May 2013

British Columbia ROBIN LAuRENCE MATERIALLY SPEAKING Richmond Art Gallery, Richmond, Apr 14- Jun 9 Traditional craft meets postmodern sculpture in this visually, materially and conceptually captivating exhibition. The four Jen Aitken artists represented – Jen Aitken, Lou Lynn, Brendan Lee Satish Tang, and Julie York – employ everything from bronze, glass and porcelain to paper, vinyl and fake fur. The allusions behind their diverse and inventive practices range across antique tools, futuris - tic robotics, the politics of the body and the nature of perception. GERMAINE KOH: WEATHER SYSTEMS Kamloops Art Gallery, Kam - loops, Apr 6-Jun 15 The concept-driven art of this international - ly acclaimed Vancouver-based artist alerts its audiences to every - day actions, objects, materials and processes – aspects of our lives Germaine Koh that we might otherwise overlook. The movement of the wind and the tides, the light of the sun, the social and economic uses of communication devices, the clothes we wear and our quotidian movements through time and space, have all caught Koh’s inter - est and informed her art. This exhibition presents new work and also brings together, for the first time, her three-part series, Fair- weather forces. SLAVS AND TATARS Presentation House Gallery, North Vancouver, Apr 12-May 26 Friendship of Nations: Polish Shi’ite Showbiz is the first Canadian showing of the artist collective, Slavs and Tatars. Based in Paris, Warsaw, New York and Moscow and working in a range of media, these artists examine the vast area known as Eurasia, east of the (now defunct) Berlin Wall and west of the (still standing) Great Wall of China. This show addresses shared genealogy and overlapping social, political and environmental Lahestan Nesfeh Jahan movements between Iran and Poland. ANDREA HOOGE: DOLLY Hot Art Wet City, Vancouver, Apr 12-May 4 Doll-head portraits, painted on wooden cut-outs and mounted on highly detailed scratchboards, take on a presence somewhere between “cute and creepy.” Hooge, whose undergraduate degree is in fine arts and psychology, began the series by examining the faces of dolls from the 1950s. Her dual education and her fond - ness for vintage graphic styles are revealed in the spooky, half- way life her postwar subjects exude.

HIGH FIRE CULTURE Satellite Gallery, Vancouver May 24-Jul 6 The subject of this intriguing show is the studio pottery movement as Andrea Hooge it manifested itself on Canada’s West Coast during the 1960s and 70s. A raft of local potters, including Lari Robson, Sam Kwan and Hiro Urakami, were powerfully influenced by the aesthetic sensi - bilities and Zen philosophy espoused by British potter Bernard Leach and his Japanese colleague Shoji Hamada. Curated by Nora Vaillant and Shelly Rosenblum, the exhibition demon - strates the “intensity, spirit and style” that identifies these potters as members of a tremendously influential pottery movement.

Lari Robson, Sam Kwan, Hiro Urakami www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 23 www.contemporaryartgallery.ca Nancy Holt: Selected Photo and Film Works CONTEMPORARY ART GALLERY, VANCOUVER, BC – Apr 19-Jun 16, 2013 Nancy Holt is an American pioneer of site-specific art as well as film and video, and one of the foremost international Land Art artists. Holt employs the natural envi - ronment as both medium and subject in pieces that address themes of memory, perception, time and space. With a focus on the cyclical nature of the universe, the daily rotation of planet earth and its annual orbit around the sun, Holt conceived her earthworks as “seeing devices” for tracking the position of the sun, stars and the earth. The exhi - bition at CAG includes major photographic works, including early Concrete Visions (1967) and Trail Markers (1969); a series of photographs entitled Light and Shadow Photo-Drawings (1978); and photographs by Holt of her most famous large-scale environmental sculptural work, Sun Nancy Holt, Concrete Poem (1968), composite inkjet print on Tunnels (1973-76). archival rag paper taken from original 126 format black and white Holt was born in Worcester, Massachusetts negatives, printed 2012 [Contemporary Art Gallery, Vancouver BC, in 1938 and currently lives and works in New Apr 19-Jun 16] Mexico. She married fellow environmental artist Robert Smithson, best known for engi - neering Spiral Jetty (1970) in Great Salt Lake, Utah.

Following their successful exhibitions 50 Years of Abstraction in 2010 and William Perehudoff: ’60s to ’90s in 2008, the gallery is currently featuring pieces selected from five decades of painting to celebrate the artist’s life and exemplary career. It includes acrylic paintings on paper as well as on canvas. The exhibit takes on added significance with the news of his death in February 2013. Perehudoff wrote in 1967, “My paintings carry no other message but the surprise, spontaneity and optimism of colour.” Since the early 1940s, Perehudoff made a significant contribution to the develop - ment of colour field and abstract painting in Canada. William Perehudoff, AC-74-21 (1974), acrylic on canvas [Newzones, Calgary AB, He studied in New York dur - Apr 6-May 9] ing the 1950s and was greatly influenced by the teachings of .

As a conservator, my aim is to apply the findings of this research to address problems posed by iron contaminants that may be scattered throughout the paper sheet and develop an effective cleaning and stain reduction system whether the paper contains iron or not. Treatment steps in such systems might include the following. Some modification may be necessary to protect sensitive media or paper surfaces, and in some cases treatment is not possible. (Keep in mind that Fe(II) ions are catalytic and water soluble; Fe(III) ions are insoluble.) Water treatment: Uses solutions where the conductivity is tailored to optimize soil removal. This treat - ment removes soluble discoloration and some catalytic Fe(II) ions as Fe(II) is water soluble. (See Wolbers’ World: a Workshop Review in the September 2012 issue). Reduction: Reducing agents or bleaches like sodium dithionite and sodium borohydride reduce overall discoloration and stains and convert some insoluble Fe(III) to water soluble Fe(II). Chelation: Chelators are weak organic acids that can sequester metal ions and remove intractable soils that surfactants and water alone can’t budge. Citric acid and EDTA are two chelators sometimes used in paper conservation that reduce overall discoloration and stains and sequester some amount of Fe(II) and Fe(III). Citric acid has less binding power than EDTA, which can be an advantage when treating items with vulnerable colours. The stronger bind - ing powers of EDTA are useful, but can be haz - ardous to the media. Rinsing well after chelation is essential as any residual EDTA allows it to join catalytic Fe(II) and hydrogen peroxide in the same molecule a combination likely to trigger the dreaded Fenton Reaction: in a few weeks or Some of the chemicals used to remove or inactivate iron in paper months, the previously cleaned paper can become heavily spotted and discoloured. Phytic acid may provide a better option than EDTA as phytic acid does not bind with hydrogen per - oxide; any phytate-Fe residues that might be left in the paper after treatment are so efficiently bound that they remain chemically inactive. Because phytic acid is only slightly weaker than EDTA, media vulnera - bility is a consideration. Oxidative bleaches: The above treatments may eliminate or minimize the need for oxidative bleaches. Gentle light bleaching may be sufficient and chemical bleaches can be applied in rigid gels for very target - ed treatments. Alkaline reserve: Raising the pH of the treated paper to the 8-8.5 range binds a proportion of any resid - ual Fe(II) into insoluble hydroxides preventing further catalytic activity. Alkaline reserves also protect against future acid hydrolysis, which causes yellowing. Antioxidants: More research is required, but antioxidants will likely be used in the future to prevent met - al-catalyzed oxidative damage. Resizing with gelatin: Creates a protective barrier between the paper and the outside environment to slow down the absorption of airborne pollutants like peroxides and buffer changes in Relative Humidity (RH). Environmental controls: High humidity promotes chemical reactions, including iron catalyzed oxidation. RH-conditioned sealed framing and storage systems are protective. Moderate temperatures also reduce chemical reactions. This summary of treatment options for paper conservation is intended for the general public. Chemical concentrations, modifications and pH ranges for their safe use have not been included. NEXT ISSUE : Disney Artist’s Legacy Lives On

While the phallus is central to many works, others more formally address themes of male power and ways in which images of masculinity are regulated. From a postcard- sized photo of a man’s groin by American photographer Robert Mapplethorpe to Joyce Weiland’s O Canada lithograph, and from Michael Morris’ stylized and emblematic phallus to a gouache on newspa - per image by Jack Shadbolt, the artists variously explore public and private manifestations of sexuality and maleness. Full Frontal is made possible with support from the Michael O'Brian Family Foundation, the Killy Foundation and the Audain Endowment for Curatorial Studies through the Department of Art History, Visual Art and Theory in collaboration with the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery at The University of British Columbia, and Satellite Gallery.

www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 39 www.kurbatoffgallery.com Yared Nigussu KURBATOFF GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – May 9-23, 2013 Yared Nigussu, known as “Yared N”, is an Ethiopian-born portrait artist now based in Vancou - ver. Yared N began showing his work in Addis Aba - ba, Ethiopia in 2005 after graduating from the Addis Ababa University School of Fine Arts and Design. He had numerous exhibitions in France from 2006 to 2009. More recently he has done artist residencies in Vienna and Millstättersee, Austria and at Raw Canvas Art+Social, Vancouver, where his paintings were shown in 2010 and 2011. During travels in Canada, France and Austria, Yared N was impressed by the density and complexi - ty of contemporary urban buildings. Many of his street scenes have exaggerated linear perspective with infinite vanishing points to dramatize the archi - tecture and emphasize fast movement through space. The paint appears to be applied with palette knives or square-tipped brush strokes, resulting in textures that are blocky, linear and cut by thin vertical and horizontal lines. The effect is one of speed and shat - tered vision. Several paintings in the Kurbatoff exhibit depict familiar settings around Vancouver, from Yaletown and West Broadway to Davie Street. Yared N has also become known for perform - Yared Nigussu, Yaletown (2013), oil on canvas [Kurbatoff ance art pieces and his participation in art battles. Gallery, Vancouver BC, May 9-23] He uses music to set the pace and tone of the works, which often feature large-scale faces. The Kurbatoff exhibit features a number of his dynamic portraits.

15TH AVE http://aggv.ca/ David Blackwood Black Ice: Prints from Newfoundland ART GALLERY OF GREATER VICTORIA, VICTORIA BC – May 3-Sep 8, 2013 David Blackwood’s Black Ice: Prints from Newfoundland includes more than 70 prints that date back to 1956 when he opened his first studio. Black Ice also includes Blackwood’s archive of letters, photographs, maps and nautical artifacts that showcase the historical and cultural period which profoundly inspired this artist: the fishing and sealing communities of rural Newfoundland in the early 1900s. Known primarily for his intaglio prints, Blackwood is a hugely popular artist internationally and has received both the Order of Canada (1993) and the Order of Ontario (2002). This is his first major Canadian exhibi - tion; curated by Katharine Lochnan and organized by the , this show originally premiered at the AGO in February 2011. Although Blackwood left Newfoundland as a teenager to study at the Ontario College of Art, his imagery throughout the years has been steadfast. The peoples of his early life in Wesleyville where he was born are revealed forever in a heroic and luminescent struggle – together as a community – against the ocean and the cold.

With themes of war, revolution and migrant conditions, the Arab, Iranian and Turkish artists in Safar/Voyage depict everyday realities and the politics of living in their respective regions. The curator, Fereshteh Daftari, describes the work as delving into “the multifaceted ideas of voyage, ranging from border crossing, war, migration, and exile to philosophical positions regarding life itself as a voyage.” He sees the exhibition as an opportunity to chal - lenge what are often simplified and mis - I A

www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 51 BY JIM FINLA Y Practical Art History or FINLAY FINE ART Confessions of a Fine Art Appraiser www.FinlayFineArt.com Chapter 36. The Case of Fritz Stehwien I first became aware of the paintings of German-Canadian artist Fritz Stehwien (1914-2008) when a friend of mine purchased the River in Winter at an auction several years ago. She later con - fessed she didn’t know anything about the artist or his work, but liked the painting very much, especially its traditional mode of composition, use of colour and subject matter. I did some research on her behalf and became familiar with Fritz Stehwien. Trained at the Hansische Hochschule für Bildende Künste in Hamburg, Germany, he served as a soldier in France and Russia from 1939 to 1946. He resumed his studies after the war, taking advanced classes at the Kunstschule Burg Giebichenstein in Halle and participating in art shows in Dresden, Berlin and Halle. In 1958 he and his family escaped from Communist-ruled East Germany and settled in Doffingen, West Germany, and in 1968 they immigrated to Canada and settled in Saskatchewan. The date on this painting is also 1968 and may have been one of the very first paintings Stehwien completed in Canada. During the course of his 40-year painting career in Canada, Stehwien painted mostly views of Saskatchewan and had many exhibitions including one at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon. Stylistically, his work is typical of the works associated with the Group of Seven and their contem - poraries. So why have Stehwien’s works not shown up at fine art Fritz Stehwien, River in Winter (1968), oil on canvas auctions? Are views of the landscape of Northern Ontario more representative of authentic Canadian painting than landscape views of Saskatchewan? It would appear that Stehwien’s works conform to the national ideal of what a Canadian landscape painting should look like, yet his works have not appeared in the Cana - dian fine art auction market. As most frequent attendees of Canadian fine art auctions held by the major art houses in Vancouver and Toronto will no doubt attest to, by far the large majority of artworks for sale are by a select group of well-known Canadian artists who have a prior history of sales at auc - tion. The membership has remained substantially unchanged over the last 50 years and includes members of the Group of Seven and their contemporaries. Only recently have Canadian fine art auction houses included more contemporary Canadian artists such as members of Painters Eleven, the Regina Five, Les Plasticiens and Les Automa - tistes, all well documented and academically sanctioned within the art history community as rep - resentative of the best in period Canadian art. One would suspect the reason for this anomaly is partly due to the shortage of traditional investment-quality work and also a desire on the part of auction houses to create another market. People like my friend who purchased Stehwien’s paint - ing because the artwork reminded her of the long winters of her youth seem to be unique. Next Issue: The Case of Resale Royalties

Oklahoma is the state with the highest per capita death rate. The Corvallis, Oregon-based artist and professor began her Last Supper project over 10 years ago as a reflection on capital punishment and how these final meals human - ize each individual inmate. The ongoing project illustrates these personal meal requests for pizza, ice cream, donuts and Cherry Coke to justice, equality, and world peace with images and words painted in cobalt tones on second-hand dishes. Green uses mineral paints that are kiln fired to the dinnerware by her technical advisor Toni Acock. The large installation of 500 plates is haunting in its simple truism. For Green these requests provide clues on race, economic background, region and family his - tory – like when the Indiana Department of Correc - tions stated about one inmate, “He told us he never had a birthday cake so we ordered a birthday cake for him.” In Green’s work the irony of this final choice becomes a poignant meditation on the strange tradi - tion of last meal requests, pointing to larger questions about the margin of error, the morality of capital pun - ishment, and why, in some states, it has been abolished Julie Green, Indiana 05 May 2007 (2007), cobalt mineral for years, where states like Texas still have high death paint on kiln-fired ceramics [The Art Gym, Marylhurst OR, Apr 16-May 17] rates. She plans to continue adding 50 plates a year until capital punishment is outlawed. Green has received national media attention for this heartfelt project; on April 11th she will be on the Colbert Report to talk about the Last Supper . Allyn Cantor

Mystery and possibility are evident in the worn surfaces of architectural spaces and graffiti-laden cityscapes depicted in Hardy’s canvases. The places that Hardy chooses to render have an archeological emptiness that point to the shortcomings inherent in industry and enterprise. FOLKERT DE JONG Portland Art Museum, Portland, Jan 5-Apr 21 Dutch artist Folkert de Jong is internationally known for his large- scale figurative works and installations made from modern industrial materials like styrofoam and polyurethane. His macabre pieces tell tales of human folly, wartime, political and economic calamity through forthcoming tableaux that are mildly humorous, somewhat gruesome and often uncomfortable. The two major sculptures and series of drawings at the Portland Art Museum certainly achieve his intention of having a visceral impact. Folkert de Jong KENNETH JOSEPHSON: IN RETROSPECT Charles A. Hartman Fine Art, Portland, Mar 20-Apr 27 Understanding the rhythm and behaviour of light is central to photographic mastery. The work of Kenneth Josephson takes these formal considerations to another level, build - ing conceptual images that are at once playful and serious, speaking to a fascination with both the internal and external worlds. Through - out his 50-year career, the Chicago-based artist was at the forefront of conceptual photography in the 1960s and 70s. This retrospective includes stellar examples from this period of his career. JAMES B. THOMPSON: LINEAR METAPHYSICS: CONTEMPORARY MARK-MAKING AND TIME-BASED ART WORKS Hallie Ford Museum of Kenneth Josephson Art, Salem, Apr 13-May 13 Drawing on the intersection of art and archaeology, James B. Thompson examines the history and pre-his - tory of mark-making as the original form of time-based media. His interest in the ancient Celtic and Iron Age tribes of Scotland and Britain – people with a strong interrelationship to land, seas and cos - mos – considers how these cultures remain only in fragments of the landscape. Thompson’s layering of linear elements in ink and paint suggest a similar stratification effect, paying homage to the passage of time. James B. Thompson WE TELL OURSELVES STORIES IN ORDER TO LIVE Museum of Contem - porary Craft, Portland, Jan 24-Apr 27 Recipients of the prestigious Hallie Ford Fellowship in the Visual Arts, these nine Oregon-based artists demonstrate a cross-disciplinary approach to their art practice. They expand upon the conceptual, material and critical potential of art, craft and design trajectories. The show title is derived from Joan Didion’s 1979 essay The White Album and Los Angeles guest curator Cassandra Coblentz utilizes this text as a theme from which to view the diversity among this regional artwork. Museum of Contemporary Craft www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 63 http://fryemuseum.org Nicolai Fechin FRYE ART MUSEUM, SEATTLE WA – Feb 9-May 1 9, 2013 This significant retrospective of Nicolai Fechin’s artwork is the first hosted at the Frye Art Museum since 1976. The Russian-American painter (1881-1955) is best known for his innovative portraiture and painting technique that blends realism with highly textural surfaces and an emotional handling of paint that well preceded Abstract Expressionist styles. Born in Kazan, Russia, Fechin studied early on with popular Russian painter Ilya Repin, whose work emphasized the realistic values of northern European masters such as Rembrandt. By 1910 Fechin’s work was internationally recognized, and he participated in major exhibits in Europe and the United States. T R A

Regarded as the most important Spanish artist of the late 18th and early 19th centuries, Goya’s fantastical vision was filled with metaphor and witty cultural Francisco Goya critique that was ahead of its time. Los Caprichos serves as a keystone of modern art. Played out by supernatural creatures, Goya’s night - marish scenes exposed the shortcomings of his Spanish society in an age of turmoil and revolution.

SALLY CLEVELAND Linda Hodges Gallery, Seattle, Apr 4-27 Portland native Sally Cleveland paints scenes with a distinctive regional tone. Her renditions of landscapes, urban and suburban sites are realisti - cally depicted with the moody Northwest feeling of a subdued Sally Cleveland palette, tempered grey skies and thick atmosphere that undoubtably places these humble subjects close to home. Cleveland’s pieces are small in scale, which adds to their seductive quality; her scenes are so fully realized within the intimately sized compositions that it’s easy to connect with the simple moments of the particular places that Cleve - land offers in her paintings.

CLARE BELFRAGE: THREADS Foster/White Gallery, Seattle, May 2-31 In her new body of work, Australian glass artist Clare Belfrage references the textile patterning of woven and sewn lines on elegant glass forms that are delicate, luminous and seemingly weightless. An international - ly recognized artist, Belfrage has been creating glass sculpture with a reverence toward the natural environment that has an exceptional abil - Clare Belfrage ity to filter essential elements into a dynamic simplicity. Her newest pieces further demonstrate technical mastery as the artist rhythmically weaves string-like textures into the stillness of her glass forms.

KENT LOVELACE: OCCITANIA Lisa Harris Gallery, Seattle, Apr 4-29 Wash - ington-based artist Kent Lovelace draws inspiration from Occitania, an area in Southern France once occupied by the Romans. Lovelace has an affinity for painting landscapes that have been cultivated for centuries. Over the last 15 years his atmospheric scenes have been painted with oil glazes on metal plates – a technique that dates back to 15th-century Europe. Using a reflective copper surface, Lovelace creates eloquent light-filled compositions with a moody contemplative tone. Kent Lovelace MANEKI NEKO: JAPAN’S BECKONING CATS – FROM TALISMAN TO POP ICON Bellevue Arts Museum, Bellevue, Feb 22-Aug 4 Considered a symbol of good fortune in Japan, a cat figurine with an upraised paw in the gesture of beckoning has been around since the Edo period (1603-1868). The iconic “lucky charm” stems from popular legend of a cat credited with saving the life of a nobleman. Ranging from simple carved stone pieces to ornately decorated porcelain sculp - tures, this large collection of over 150 maneki neko includes pieces from the 19th and 20th centuries and is one of the most extensive outside Japan. www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 67

a y Exhibition Catalogues of Interest DAMIAN MOPPETT is produced in conjunction with this young artist’s solo show at the Rennie Collection at Wing Sang. Moppett’s art-historically inspired practice include videos, oil paintings, drawings in graphite and watercolour, videos and sculptures in metal, ceramic and plaster. Vancouver collector Bob Rennie discusses how he assembled Moppett’s works over the years. Hayward Gallery curator Cliff Lauson examines the artist’s research into the art of Rubens, Rodin, Calder and Caro, and his focus on the studio as a site of production and creativity. (Lauson’s essay is published in both English and French.) Hardcover, 100 pages, $25 CAD. Available online at Amazon and in Vancouver at Read Books (Charles H. Scott Gallery), 604-844-3809

THE NEWS FROM HERE is the catalogue to the 2013 Alberta Biennial of Contemporary Art featuring 36 artists chosen by award-winning art critic and independent curator Nancy Tousley. Artists range from established to emerging. Art forms include textiles, sound, video installations, mixed-media sculpture, realist paintings and computer-manipulated photographs. Tying the work together is Tousley’s essay about the role artists play in communicating an idea of place, "Place is a process: it is built on what came before yet it is always changing.” She credits the AGA biennials as a means of showing us “where we have been” and of pointing to “where we might be going.” Softcover, 95 pages, $15 CAD. Available at Shop AGA, 780-392-2499 or [email protected]

KOSHASHIN: THE HALL COLLECTION OF 19TH CENTURY PHOTOGRAPHS OF JAPAN is an exhibition on view at the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria of photo - graphs taken in Japan from the latter part of the Tokugawa shogunate to the beginnings of the Meija era (early 1860s to late 1890s). As collector Arlene Hall notes, the photos “document Japan’s passage from a feudal society to a modern one.” Images encompass the gorgeous (temples, beautifully costumed women) and the curious (religious processions, tattooed men) to the horrific (the after - math of a deadly earthquake, crucified and beheaded criminals). An overview is provided by Terry Bennett, a dealer and historian of East Asian photography. Softcover, 144 pages, $35 CAD. Available through the AGGV gift shop, 250-384-7012 or [email protected]

WE TELL OURSELVES STORIES IN ORDER TO LIVE examines the practices of nine Oregon-based recipients of the Hallie Ford Fellowship in the Visual Arts – Daniel Duford, David Eckard, Heidi Schwegler, Sang-ah Choi, Bruce Conkle, Stephen Hayes, Ellen Lesperance, Akihiko Miyoshi and Michelle Ross.

Softcover, 80 pages, $25 USD + S&H. Available at Museum of Contemporary Craft, http://www.museumofcontemporarycraft.org/shop

FECHIN accompanies the current retrospective at the Frye Art Museum by Russ - ian-American painter Nicolai Fechin (1881-1955). Colour reproductions of 44 paintings and 13 drawings showcase the artist’s path from his early international success, to war and revolution in Russia, to his years in New York and his latter days in Taos and California. Text by Jo-Anne Birnie Danzker and Lauren Palmor contextualize his emotional figurative style against the various social and cultural backdrops of the era in which he worked. Softcover, 80 pages, $22 USD.

PREVIEW 71 www.gregkucera.com/ David Byrd | Introduction: A Life of Observation GREG KUCERA GALLERY, SEATTLE, WA — April 4-May 18, 2013 Observation and experience are the foundation of David Byrd's work and creative life. The 86-year old artist will be introducing his paint - ings to the commercial art world in Introduction: A Life of Observation . The exhibition presents Byrd’s major paintings, smaller studies, works on paper, and wood sculpture, drawing from the many rich memories of his life. For almost three decades, Byrd worked in the psychiatric ward at a veterans’ hospital. Some of his most defining paintings stem from his work with patients who were damaged from the war and capture the distinct personalities and behaviours that he wit - nessed. Stylistically Byrd uses moody tonal hues coupled with spatial relationships to capture scenes of figures and his memo - ries of place. His paintings yield intelli - gent arrangements – having notable sim - ilarities to pieces by Andrew Wyeth, Edward Hopper, and Georges Seurat – while being rooted in the social realism and genre painting of the 1930s and ’40s, the era when Byrd came of age. Byrd studied art for a short time in David Byrd, Stillman’s Gym (1964), oil on canvas [Greg Kucera Gallery, Seattle Philadelphia and New York after World WA, Apr 4-May 18] Courtesy of Greg Kucera Gallery War II, after his time in the Merchant Marines and the U.S. Army. His travels through Europe, Asia and the Mediterranean, as well as maritime subjects from the war years, are evi - dent in many of his pieces. Byrd retired from the hospital in 1988 and went on to build a home and studio in rural New York. He continues to paint and create wood sculpture. Allyn Cantor
