UAB VISUAL and PERFORMING ARTS New York JAN UAB VISUAL AND PERFORMING ARTS New York JAN . 10-12 . 2020 A VISUAL EXPLORATION uab.edu/uabarts Good morning NYC crew! I am so excited that you have decided to join us on this momentous trip to New York! This is hopefully the first of many trips that will provide us with memorable engagements with some of the most exciting influencers in the art world today. We are excited to offer a musical performance, selected by Alys Stephens Centers' Director of Programming, Eric Essix, as part of our trip. The inclusion of this performance represents a landmark step for the newly-christened UAB Visual and Performing Arts, as we embark on our collective mission to ensure that the transformative power of the arts is accessible to all. Attached to this email you will find an enclosed packet including a final itinerary and emergency contact list. Please save these documents to your phone so they may be easily accessible. We will also provide hard-copies at our first meeting in NYC. A few important things to keep in mind: • We will have transportation during the day but there are no dinners scheduled as a group. • There will not be transportation for the Jazz event since it starts at 9:30 and everyone will be at separate dinners. • It looks like there could be some rain in the forecast so please plan accordingly • Our bus will depart from the Park Central Hotel at 8:30 am on Friday and 10am on Saturday. • Should you have any issues or needs, please contact AEIVA Assistant Curator Tina Ruggieri at 205-587-3717 for assistance. • Tag us in your social media posts using #UABNYC We look forward to seeing you Friday morning!!! John Fields Senior Director, AEIVA FRI.JAN . 10 Park Central Hotel 870 7th Avenue New York, NY 10019 Telephone: (212) 247-8000 Central to New York’s Best Midtown convenience. Classic hospitality.

ULAE Universal Art Edition Limited 27 W. 20th Street, #601 New York, NY 10011 Telephone: (212) 675-2426 Mobile: (917) 434-3781 Marie Tennyson 9:00 a.m. - 10:15 a.m. ( Bus leaves at 8:30 a.m.) Founded in 1957 by Tatyana Grosman in West Islip, New York, ULAE set the standard for postwar printmaking in America. Bringing together the most recognized artists of the day with highly skilled master printers, Grosman aimed to publish artists’ books and prints in the tradition of fine European ateliers. Her tenacious spirit and complete dedication to the artist won over even the most tentative printmakers. While a number of established artists, skeptical of the print medium, had rejected invitations to work at ULAE during its formative years, younger artists such as Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg blazed a path to the burgeoning shop and influenced others to follow. Their innovative and committed approach to printmaking was critical to ULAE’s early success. By challenging prevailing notions of artistic subjectivity and originality in their choices of subject matter and mediums, Johns and Rauschenberg helped to remove the stigma once associated with printmaking. #UABNYC uab.edu/uabarts We will be greeted by Marie Tennyson from Universal Limited Art Editions and special guest, artist Wyatt Kahn. Wyatt Kahn is primarily known for his investigations into the visual and spatial relationship between painting and sculpture. Using unprimed canvases stretched over wooden frames, Kahn assembles complex wall-mounted works in which the gaps between the individual canvases give rise to abstract or pictorial compositions. Rather than tracing the lines and shapes directly onto the canvases themselves, he turns them into physical components of the artwork. Referencing the tradition of minimalist abstraction, Wyatt Kahn’s monochrome multi-panel ‘paintings’ are informed by a desire to explore non-illusory forms of representation. In essence, their subject becomes the interplay between two and three dimensions, as experienced via shifts in surface, structure and depth. Wyatt Kahn (b. 1983) lives and works in New York. Recent solo exhibitions were held at Museo di Arte Moderna e Contemporanea di Trento e Rovereto; Trento (2016) and at the Contemporary Art Museum, St. Louis, MO (2015). His work is included in the collections of the Whitney Museum of American Art, NY; Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; MOCA, Los Angeles; Dallas Museum of Art; MCA, Chicago; and Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo. Studio Visit: Peter Halley 526 West 26th Street, Room 920 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. Peter Halley was born in 1953 in New York. He began his formal training at Phillips Academy in Andover, Mass., from which he graduated in 1971. During that time, Halley read Josef Albers’ “Interaction of Color” (1981), which would influence him throughout his career. From 1973 to 1974, Halley lived in New Orleans, where he absorbed the vibrant cultural influences of the city, began using commercial materials in his art, and first became acquainted with the writings of earthwork artist Robert Smithson. In 1975, the artist graduated from Yale University, New Haven, with a degree in art history. After Yale, Halley returned to New Orleans, where he received an MFA in painting from the University of New Orleans in 1978. He had his first solo exhibition at the Contemporary Art Center, New Orleans, that same year. In 1984, Halley started to exhibit with the International With Monument gallery, becoming closely associated with the organization and its artists, who exhibited conceptually rigorous work in a market-savvy, coolly presented space that stood in stark contrast to the bohemian, neo-expressionist flair of the East Village art scene at the time. His works can be found in the permanent collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the Tate Modern, London, and many other major museums around the world. #UABNYC uab.edu/uabarts The Meatball Shop 200 9th Avenue, New York, NY 10011 Telephone: (212) 257-4363 12:30 p.m. - 1:30 p.m. Daniel Holzman, chef/co-owner of The Meatball Shop, started his cooking career at the age of 15 at Le Bernardin in New York City and remained there for four years until, at the suggestion of chef Eric Ripert, he attended the Culinary Institute of America with a full scholarship from the James Beard Foundation. Holzman’s culinary journey has led him through some of the country’s finest restaurants, including Palladin, Napa, The Campton Place, Aqua, Jardinière and Axe. In 2010, Holzman returned to his hometown of New York City to team up with his childhood friend Michael Chernow and debut The Meatball Shop on New York City’s Lower East Side. The mix-and-match menu of meatballs, served in a warm and convivial environment, was an instant hit. Five more locations of The Meatball Shop—in Williamsburg, the West Village, Chelsea, the Upper East Side and Hell’s Kitchen—opened in quick succession. Holzman also co-wrote “The Meatball Shop Cookbook,” which was published to much acclaim in 2011. Daniel has ap- peared in countless broadcast segments including ABC’s “Good Morning America,” NBC’s “TODAY” show and “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno,” as well as in an array of widely reaching local and national publications such as The New York Times, Food & Wine, Saveur, People, Food Network Magazine, and GQ. Lunch will be served family-style. We will have a veggie option for those who do not eat meat. Hill Art Foundation 239 10th Avenue, Third Floor New York, NY 10001 2:00 p.m. - 2:45 p.m. Three Christs, Sleeping Mime, and the Last Supper Pagan Paradise Charles Ray and the Hill Collection The Hill Art Foundation is a nonprofit organization founded with the goal of expanding the relationship between art and the viewer. Dedicated to providing access to art through rotating exhibitions and ongoing arts education programs, the Foundation is free and open to the public. Visitors are encouraged to reflect on and engage with each of the exhibitions and to establish new interpretations of the works on view. The Hill Collection includes the personal art collection of J. Tomilson and Janine Hill, who have avidly collected over the past three decades, as well as works that the Hills have irrevocably dedicated to charitable purposes. The Hill Collection focuses on in-depth collecting within four major categories: Renaissance and Baroque bronzes, Old Masters paintings, Post-War figurative Modern Masters, and emerging Contemporary artists. #UABNYC uab.edu/uabarts Flag Art Foundation 545 West 25th Street #9 New York, NY 10001 3:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. The FLAG Art Foundation emanated from my passion for collecting contemporary art and the desire to share that joy and personal fulfillment with the public at large. For more than 25 years, I’ve cultivated an in-depth approach to collecting art of my lifetime, which has allowed me to forge strong and sustained relationships with artists throughout the evolution of their careers. Additionally, my wife, Amanda, and I, have developed unique relationships with artists, curators, gallerists, museum directors, and other collectors, all of whom tremendously enrich our lives. It was my hope that, in creating The FLAG Art Foundation, we could work with these creative and inspiring individuals in new and different capacities and build a program that would honor artists and engage viewers.

  • The Artist Sam Mckin Lorde in the Twiligh T Sam Mckinniss
    THE ARTIST SAM MCKIN NISS ON CAPTURING LORDE IN THE TWILIGH T By Jia Tolentino | 24 March, 2017 Last year, the twenty-year-old New Zealand singer - songwriter Lorde contacted the Brooklyn -based painter Sam McKinniss through mutual friends. She came to visit his studio in Bushwick, and then went to see his exhibition “Egyptian Violet,” which featured, among other works, a life-size oil painting, rendered with Symbolist intensity and high-classical technique, of Prince on a motorcycle. Soon after, she aske d McKinniss if he would paint a portrait of her for the cover of her forthcoming album, “Melodrama.” At a time when pop music and mass culture are analyzed with feverish determination, Sam McKinniss’s work offers an alternative.PHOTOGRAPH BY DAN ALLEGRETT O The two artists are well suited; Lorde’s sonic palette is moody and electric, and she absorbs influences across genres and media; McKinniss bases his uneasy, romantic oil paintings on photographs, most of them pulled from Google Images. (The painting of Prince, for instance, was a copy of the “Purple Rain” album cover.) For Lorde, he set up a shoot at a friend’s apartment, on the forty-second floor of Frank Gehry’s twisting silver skyscraper just west of the Brooklyn Bridge, putting colored bulbs on a li ghting rig and hiring a friend to take photos while he directed. Lorde came to the apartment on a cloudless afternoon in mid-November. The space was all windows; at dusk, blue light flooded in. Lorde changed into a vintage negligee. “She was just ready for it,” McKinniss recalled recently.

  • News from the Selectboard Happy New Year
    Volume 1 Published monthly since May 1999 January 2019 News from the Selectboard Submitted by Erik Spitzbarth, Chairperson IF MY HOME’S REASSESSTED VALUATION INCREASES, DOES THAT MEAN MY PROPERTY TAX BILL AUTOMATICALLY INCREASES? – NO There is a misunderstanding at times on what really drives your tax bill. In simple terms, it’s all about government spending. Your property tax bill is based on two factors: A. The Total $$$ Authorized to be Raised (sum of Education, Local, and County Budgets) B. The Total Assessed Valuations for the Town A/B x 1,000 = the “Tax Rate” for the community Your Tax Bill = Your Home’s Assessed Value per / 1,000 x The Tax Rate. If Approved Spending increases and the pool of Assessed Valuations stays the same, the Tax Rate will increase. Your Tax Bill will Increase. If Approved Spending stays unchanged, and the pool of Assessed Valuations uniformly increases, the Tax Rate will decrease. You Tax Bill will be unchanged. Your Tax Bill is based on individual changes in your assessment. These changes become part of the Total Pool of Assessed Evaluations (up or down). In general terms, holding spending and increasing the pool of evaluations through improvements and growth, reduce the Individual Tax Burden. Reducing spending has even a greater effect. Spend More, Pay More CALL TO DUTY: Our town is blessed to be called home to almost a 100 US military veterans. There are a number of events through out the year where your participation is acknowledged and appreciated. We are also looking to organize a social get-together in 2019.
