This small exhibition of non-objective paintings demon - Lawren Harris strates, among other things, the impact of his theosophical beliefs on his art. Through colour, light, and simplified form, Harris sought to express "the spiritual essence of nature". YOUSUF KARSH, REGARDING HEROES Glenbow Museum, Cal - gary, April 2-June 15 Armenian-Canadian Yousuf Karsh was one of the 20th century's most famous portrait photographers. If he had not shot a single other image, his world-famous 1941 por - trait of a defiant Winston Churchill would have forever secured his reputation. This exhibition, which includes images of Albert Einstein, Ernest Hemingway, Audrey Hepburn, and Pierre Elliott Trudeau, reveals how our conception of greatness has Yousuf Karsh been shaped by one man's vision. IAN JOHNSTON: ARCHAEOLOGY OF PROCESS Paul Kuhn Gallery, Calgary, April 9-May 7 Nelson-based artist Ian Johnston is show - ing a collection of sculptures, in stoneware and porcelain, based on everyday objects. From cell phones to plastic bags to brooms, these forms symbolize the archaeological remains of the future. Johnston spins narratives off them, suggesting how our culture may some day be interpreted based on the evidence of our consumption and waste. Ian Johnston TRADITIONS ILLUMINATED: CELEBRATING THE HALLS The Art Gallery of Calgary, Calgary, April 29-August 27 Art is clearly in the blood of the Hall family. John, Joice, and their daughter Janine all pursue highly keyed variations on contemporary realism, their subjects ranging from still life to landscape to portraiture. Son and brother Jarvis specializes in hand-crafted picture frames, themselves works of art in their carving and gilding. JEREMY DRUMMOND: 65-POINT PLAN FOR SUSTAINABLE LIV - ING The New Gallery, Calgary, May 5-June 11 This exhibition by Jeremy Drummond, a Canadian artist based in Richmond, Vir - ginia, consists of 65 aerial photographs of subdivisions from every Canadian province and US state. Each subdivision image Janine Hall has been digitally reconstructed to represent an enclosed geo - graphical space, with no roads leading in or out. Taken as a whole, the installation evokes notions around security and sus - tainability, from feudal fiefdoms to contemporary gated com - munities.

Born in Edmonton, he began painting in 2000. He has taught life drawing and composition privately and at the Vancouver Film School since 2002. In March 2011, he showed a series of perfect little still life paintings at Vancouver’s Jacana Gallery. Apologia , at Pera Gallery until April 23, showcases works based on various art historical moments, philosophies and painters. Systems at Ian Tan Gallery features portraits of people, elegantly painted and without pretence. Senetchko's style can be refresh - ingly straight-forward and guileless. With an eye for the three-dimen - sional heft of sheer, physical volume and the transient effects of light, he is able to paint with the apparent ease of Edward Hopper and the simplicty of Ralph Goings. Although he seems to hide his gift in a great deal of his work, the paintings in Apologia and Systems show a clear, mature under - standing of his capacity.

www.glenbow.org Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait GLENBOW MUSEUM, CALGARY AB – Apr 2-Jul 3, 2011 Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait is an art doc - umentary using sound and image to follow every move of French-born soccer player Zinédine Zidane at an April 23, 2005 match in Madrid's Santiago Bernabéu stadium. Turner Prize-winning Glasgow-born artist and filmmaker Douglas Gordon, in conjunction with French-Algerian artist Philippe Parreno, trained 17 cameras on Zidane then mixed the cuts to create macro shots inter - spersed with distance views. The film has been described as “the ultimate time and motion study” since its debut at Cannes in 2006. The attractive Zidane, with his French-Algerian heritage, car - ries the film superbly with his own complete focus on the ball. Dark, shaved and intense, he is the per - fect subject for a study of an ath - lete, which the filmmaker has called “an exercise in solitude”. The film combines Gordon’s interest in time-motion studies and traditional portraiture. His work, which writer Dan Hill terms “pitched half way between Still from Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait by Douglas Gordon and Philippe Parreno, film film and art”, often employs mul - still [Glenbow Museum, Calgary AB, Apr 2-Jul 3] tiple monitors and performance- based videos. Zidane was named European Player of the year (1998) and was three-time FIFA World Player of the Year. He has been a United Nations Goodwill Ambassador since 2001. Zidane retired from professional soccer after the 2006 World Cup. Mia Johnson

DOUGLAS UDELL GALLERY 1566 West 6 th Ave Vancouver, BC V6J 1R2 www.douglasudellgallery.com • 604-736-8900 www.tacomaartmuseum.org American Chronicles: The Art of Norman Rockwell TACOMA ART MUSEUM, TACOMA WA – Feb 26-May 30, 2011 American Chronicle s is a major exhi - bition of Norman Rockwell’s art which is touring nationally. It provides a rare opportunity to see an extensive collection of original paintings, illustrations and archival studio material from the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Massachusetts. Best known for his magazine covers, especially those he created for The Saturday Evening Post , Rockwell (1894-1978) painted nostalgic images of American life in the 20th century. His pictures repre - sent feelings of innocence, hope, courage and change. With a career that spanned 65 years, Rockwell illustrated pivotal moments in American history – including scenes from World War II and documentation of the Civil Rights movement – and created loving scenarios of everyday life. The exhibit includes such iconic works as Triple Self-Portrait (1959), and the famous suite of four paint - Norman Rockwell, The Problem We All Live With (1964), oil on canvas (illustration for ings inspired by Franklin Roo - Look , January 14, 1964) [Tacoma Art Museum, Tacoma WA, Feb 26-May 30] Collection: sevelt’s 1941 State of the Union Norman Rockwell Museum, Licensed by Norman Rockwell Licensing, Niles IL Address, Four Freedoms (1943). Later in Rockwell’s career, he captured the serious realities of desegregation in the American south in works like The Problem We All Live With (1964), which depicted a young African-American girl walking to school among white federal marshals past a wall defaced by racist graffiti. As a visual storyteller and commercial illustrator, Rockwell was not regarded as a fine artist in his lifetime by critics of the world of modern art. His work took place within an era of rapidly developing mass media, deeming his artwork synonymous with the popular visual culture of the 20th century. Allyn Cantor

British Columbia ROBIN LAURENCE TED SMITH AND A.Y. JACKSON: FAMILIAR TERRITORY Kamloops Art Gallery, Kamloops, through May 28 Bringing together the landscape paintings of Ted Smith, a contemporary local artist, and A.Y. Jackson, a member of the iconic Group of Seven, this exhibition explores ideas of place and the ways in which land - A.Y. Jackson scape speaks to our sense of identity. The show looks particularly at how each artist has portrayed the Interior of British Colum - bia, and includes Jackson's acclaimed painting of Mount Paul, one of the defining features of the Kamloops horizon. DOWN THE GARDEN PATH Art Gallery of Greater Victoria, Victoria, through June 5 In different yet complementary ways, Yedda Morrison's mixed-media installation, Mark Lewis's video pro - jection, and Scott McFarland's photographs address the com - plexity of the nature/culture interface. Their work asks us to Yedda Morrison consider many things, from our use of private gardens and public parks to our failed environmental policies. REVISITING THE SILENCE Bill Reid Gallery, Vancouver, through June 5 New York photographer Adelaide de Menil made a num - ber of trips to the Northwest Coast in the 1960s, 70s and 80s to shoot the area's totem poles in situ. Often accompanied by Hai - da artist Bill Reid, she recorded many poles in their last standing place, before they were removed to museums or subsided into Adelaide de Menil the earth and forest. This selection of de Menil's black-and- white photographs inspires us to think, again, about conflicting ideas of salvage, collection, and truthfulness to indigenous cul - tural practices. HADLEY+MAXWELL: WHO THAT HAPPENS Or Gallery, Vancouver, April 2-May 7 Working across a range of media, this collaborative duo folds a complicated rethinking of the world into all that they undertake. In their sculptural installation at the Or, they reinvent found antique figurative sculptures and furniture. Cutting parts away and refurbishing the surfaces, they combine these altered objects with other custom-made elements to create what they call "three-dimensional grotesques". New meanings emerge, as do the words of the show's evolving title. Hadley+Maxwell DWELLING: THREE EXHIBITIONS ABOUT HOUSE + HOME Surrey Art Gallery, Surrey, Exhibit 1: through June 4, Exhibits 2+3: April 9- June 12 Opening April 2, the first of these thematically linked shows is Yam Lau's Room: An Extension , a video self-portrait that promises to "unfold like architectural origami". The second is Sitely Premises , a group show that focuses on the creative possibil - ities of the exterior spaces of the single family detached home on the West Coast, and the third, Domestic Lives: Works from the Per - manent Collection , explores the multifaceted relationships we have with the places in which we reside.

British Columbia BRIAN HOWELL Winsor Gallery, Vancouver, April 7-30 Award- winning photographer Brian Howell is well known for his black-and-white images of celebrity impersonators and minor league wrestling. In this show, he takes on a defining feature of street life: the binner's shopping cart. Howell's documentary Brian Howell approach to this subject included walking the city streets and buying the carts and their contents (including everything from window frames to bike parts) before photographing them. Expect revelations both personal and cultural. SYLVIA TAIT: A CLASSICAL SPIRIT West Vancouver Museum, West Vancouver, April 13-May 21 One of the West Coast's most enduring abstract painters, Sylvia Tait studied art in Montreal and lived for a spell in Mexico before landing on Vancouver's North Shore. Working in the mid-century Modernist tradition Sylvia Tait of expressive brushwork and vibrant colour, often organizing her painting field into organic blocks, strands or ladders, she infuses her practice with passion and energy. This show surveys her art from the early 1960s to the present. BRAD PHILLIPS: SOMEONE WRITE ME Monte Clark Gallery, Vancouver, April 28-May 28 Whether working in oil, water - colour, graphite or photography, Phillips uses black humour and extreme technical facility to skewer the role of the artist. In his new show of paintings, he marches the cultural cliché of the male artist "as a mentally ill, alcoholism-prone, sexually voracious" person through the labyrinthine reaches of his mind. BARBARA ASTMAN: DANCING WITH CHE: ENTER THROUGH THE GIFT SHOP Kelowna Art Gallery, Kelowna, May 7-July 31 The Brad Phillips national debut of Barbara Astman's ambitious installation will see part of the gallery converted into a faux gift shop. The usual souvenirs – from key chains to T-shirts – will be on display, fea - turing the famous face of the martyred Marxist revolutionary Ché Guevara. Paradoxes abound in the choice of this anti-cap - italist icon within a retail context, including the fact that none of the merchandise will be for sale.

WEIZHI ZHANG Art Beatus, Vancouver, April 29-June 24 Chinese Barbara Astman artist Weizhi Zhang has made a long and careful study of the historic courtyard gates of his native city, Beijing. His lovingly detailed watercolours, in demand around the world, document his years of research of and devotion to these endangered architectural features, which are otherwise falling into ruin or being demolished to make way for modern development.

www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 19 www.burnabyartgallery.ca Arnold Shives BURNABY ART GALLERY, BURNABY BC – May 24-Jun 26, 2011 British Columbia artist Arnold Shives is an experienced mountain climber who derives much of his subject matter for painting, assemblage and printmaking from photographs taken during expe - ditions. As with the works of Toni Onley, Gordon Smith and Richard Diebenkorn, Shives adopted a modernist approach to picture making that has continued to inform his paintings and prints of landscapes over the past fifty years. His imagery reveals his background as a master printmaker and his love of the wilderness. With layered shapes, simple colours and a strong use of line, he creates assemblages of scenes in nature. His materials have included watercolour, linocuts, pastels, monotypes, etch - ings and experimentations with grounds like plywood, board and perforated steel. Shives’s work has been exhibited across Canada, the United States, South Africa, Europe and Japan, and is in numerous major collections including the National Gallery of Canada and the San Francisco Art Museum. He studied at the University of British Columbia, earned Arnold Shives, Rays of Sun (1994), linocut on paper a BFA from the San Francisco Art Institute during the [Burnaby Art Gallery, Burnaby BC, May 24-Jun 26] City 1960s, and received an MA in Painting from Stanford of Burnaby Permanent Art Collection, gift of David Hui University in 1967. After a lifetime of receiving many awards and distinctions, including Canada Council grants, he was appointed a member of the Royal Canadian Academy (RCA) in 2006. Arnold Shives lives and works in North Vancouver. Mia Johnson

A pencil thin lady led the tour. I remember nothing she said, but the AGO’s Group of Seven landscapes were unforgettable. It was Diego Rivera’s art, however, that invaded my soul. Before that day, graphic expressions of oppression and murder were unknown to me. This req - uisite gallery trip directed the future course of my life. When I was Assistant Curator (Education) at the Vancouver Art Gallery in 1965, like my AGO forebear, I introduced whole busloads of children to the gallery’s purpose and talked about a few high - lights in the VAG’s then-small collection. By that decade most galleries had docents trained in art his - tory, art appreciation and question-and-answer tech - niques. These volunteers discussed specific artworks with smaller clusters of pupils. When employed at Surrey Art Gallery in the late 1980s, I observed that this basic system was still fol - lowed by Ingrid Kolt, the institution’s Art Education specialist. Here, however, the SAG’s docents were mainly taught about contemporary art and art issues, since the permanent collection at that time held only late-20th century works. By the beginning of the 21st Courtesy: Art Gallery of Ontario century the majority of important art institutions (big or small) anywhere in the world were becoming familiar with new technologies like video and computer-generated art, new materials such as polyester resin, and art movements and their attendant philosophies that were in constant flux; but the tradi - tional school tour was by no means dead. It amused me that the internet promo for “Gallery Visits for Schools 2010-2011” at the AGO includes a photo of seated children listening to a guide talk about the same Group of Seven canvases I saw sixty years ago. According to this brief article, the AGO’s cur - rent school programs connect “students to art and art to your class - room” utilizing resources from the wide-ranging collection. Like its Canadian peer, Portland Art Museum in Oregon is now also in possession of vast holdings. PAM is famous for its special collections of Native American and Northwest art and its perma - nent exhibitions of Asian art. Despite this specialized wealth, PAM’s educational philosophy as expressed on the web seems unin - spired. Seattle Art Gallery’s educational resources and philosophy appears to be far more exciting. On the internet, we learn that unique learning opportunities can be accessed at all three SAM locations. Among other aims, SAM wants students and teachers “to develop critical understandings of art and culture”. Courtesy: Vancouver Art Gallery School groups are also catered to at Seattle’s Frye Museum which, since 1952, has operated in the bequeathed Frye mansion with a 250-piece start-up collection that Wikipedia describes as being full of dark, dramatic, realis - tic narratives. After recent expansion and the employment of curators who know how to mount interesting shows, the Frye remains a special place for children to learn through lectures, events and hands-on experiences. Kevin Griffin’s February 6, 2009 Vancouver Sun article summarizes the strategy behind this city’s most bustling art education program in its headline: “Vancouver Art Gallery gets them young, tells them lots”. This implies that art will catch, inform, then hold their attention forever, as it has mine.

www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 29 www.youraga.ca/ BRIAN JUNGEN ART GALLERY OF ALBERTA, EDMONTON AB – Jan 29-May 8, 2011 Brian Jungen, an artist with Swiss and Dunne-za First Nations ancestry, was born in Fort St. John, BC. In his practice, he uses consumer items like Nike shoes, lawn chairs and leather couches to construct installations that imitate such “authentic” First Nations artifacts as masks and tents. His more elaborate conceptual artworks com - bine video and audio. Jungen’s interest in sports equipment like catchers mitts, baseball bats and bas - ketball jerseys has been moti - vated, in part, by the sports world’s appropriation of Abo - riginal culture in team names like the Chiefs, Indians, Red - skins and Braves. Brian Jungen , an exhibition at the Art Gallery of Alberta, features three massive struc - tures: Shapeshifter (2000), Cetology (2002) and Carapace (2009). White plastic lawn chairs and green trash bins have been cut into pieces and Brian Jungen, Cetology (2002), plastic chairs [Art Gallery of Alberta, Edmonton AB, reassembled into the shapes of Jan 29-May 8] Collection of the Vancouver Art Gallery a geodesic dome, a dinosaur and a turtle. The latter are hung from the ceiling using an overhead installation style typical of natural history museums. Despite their humble origins, the sculptures manage to overwhelm the spectator with their scale and compositional complexity. Jungen lives and works in Vancouver. Since earning a diploma from Emily Carr College of Art and Design in 1992, he has been invited to participate in more than 100 solo and group exhibitions in such prestigious locations as the Tate and the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian. He was the winner of the Sobey Art Award (2002) and the 2010 Gershon Iskowitz Prize. With a practice that is at once accessible and provocative, Brian Jungen may well be one of the most reviewed artists of the past decade. Mia Johnson

The Case of the Silent Song Silent Song is a wall mounted, site specific sculpture located in a small chapel in Christ Church Cathe - dral in Vancouver. The sculpture, commissioned by the Church to coincide with the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, was blessed and dedicated on February 13, 2010. Awall-mounted text accompanied the piece and is placed on the chapel wall adjacent to the sculpture which is approximately 8x4feet in size. The text reads in part: “Silent Song is intended to evoke remem - bered or imagined sounds and can be considered ametaphor for many diverse individual voices conjoined together in musical patterns. The artists have used the retired organ parts of the Casavant & Frere organ installed in Christ Church cathedral in 1949 which had incor - porated pipes from the previous organ. The Casavant organ served the congregation for 54 years and now 1,700 of its pipes live on in the new Kenneth Jones tracker action pipe organ installed in Christ Church cathedral in 2004.” My involvement began when I was asked by the Church to appraise the sculpture, as the artists desired to donate the piece to the Church in return for a tax receipt. I undertook the assignment cognisant of the fact that standard appraisal proto - col would require a methodology based on cost approach, rather than a cost-comparison approach, for evaluation. This approach relies on the artist or manufacturer to supply a statement of cost of labour and materials to include a reasonable expectation of profit. The number of hours involved in production and the hourly labour cost is accepted uncontested, in good faith and no attempt is made to verify that information. The appraisal is therefore based on the wholesale price of the sculpture and does not reflect additional price anomalies associated with a retail environ - Silent Song sculpture, located in Christ Church ment. Intangibles associated with artistic merit and those of Cathedral in Vancouver site specificity and uniqueness are not taken into considera - tion, however the commitment of the artist, as evidenced by previous works and critical peer review in the art world is considered. For income tax purposes, donations of art assets are known as gifts in kind and are identified as list - ed personal property, however a donation by an artist of his/her work is considered to be from inven - tory. Donations can be made to a variety of charitable organizations ranging from those that support arts and culture, religious activities, the environment and sports and recreation. Upon receipt of the donation, the receiving institution issues a tax receipt for the appraised fair market value of the artwork. Usually an artwork with a value below $1000 does not require a written appraisal as the receiving institution’s in-house staff performs the evaluation. However for items over $1000, the receiving institution requires a written appraisal by an independent qualified appraiser. The cost of appraisal is usually paid for by the receiving institution. The difference between the original purchased price and the appraised value is subject to 50% capital gain. Charitable donations of artworks of significant cultural property as determined by The Canadian Cultural Property Export Review Board are not subject to capital gains. However, charities receiving gifts of cultural property are subject to a penalty tax in certain circumstances if they dispose of the property within 10 years. The tax receipt is issued for the appraised fair market value. Next issue: The Case of Edgar Heap of Birds

Her Form Letters series (2008-ongoing) is a body of work using rejection letters, literally, as the basis for drawing and painting. Passmore has invited “patrons” of her work to spon - sor a piece through a $50 donation. After drawing and painting around, between and beside the passages of text in each letter, she prints and distributes copies of the completed work. Many of the images are decorated with adorable animals, bucolic landscapes and imaginative weather conditions reminiscent of the light touch of the 19th-century French artist Honoré Daumier, or the children’s illustrators Beatrix Potter and Kate Green - away. Other works – much less comforting and more in the spirit of feeling rejected – have a dark, urban realism. Heather Passmore is actually an accomplished artist who combines painting, drawing and photography with used materials such as linoleum, mattresses, plywood, and T-shirts. For the past ten years she has exhibited exten - sively in solo and group exhibitions across Canada and Heather Passmore, Form Letters 2009 (2010), mixed media internationally. She earned a BFA from the University of [The New Gallery, Calgary AB, Mar 18-Apr 23] British Columbia in 2000 and an MFA in 2004. Despite her rejections, she has had nine solo shows and four two-person exhibits in the past six years, and has been the recipient of 16 awards, scholarships and grants. Following the Calgary exhibit, she will be in residence in Iceland during the month of May. Mia Johnson

www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 47 www.willamette.edu/museum_of_art Glory of Kings: Ethiopian Christian Art from Oregon Collections HALLIE FORD MUSEUM OF ART, SALEM OR – Mar 19-Jun 12, 201 1 Christianity in Ethiopia emerged in the fourth-century CE (AD) during the reign of Emperor Ezana, ruler of the ancient Aksumite kingdom. Located on an trade route running along the Red Sea between India and the Roman Empire, the near-east African region of Ethiopia likely adopted Christianity as a result of trade relation - ships with merchants of the Roman Empire. After Ezana’s religious conversion, an Eastern Orthodox form of Christianity spread. By the 15th century, the followers had developed a strong tradition of icon painting. The provincial sect of Christianity traces its imperial lines back to the union of King Solomon and the Queen of Sheeba of Aksum (Axum). The popular national story, which is often the subject of religious artwork in the 20th century, credits their son Menelik with bringing the Ark of the Covenant to Ethiopia. R E L

www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 49 www.galleryjones.com Kristin Bjornerud: New Paintings GALLERY JONES, VANCOUVER BC – May 5-28, 2011 Kristin Bjornerud creates delicate, fanciful and introspective images resembling illustrations for children’s books or fables. With titles like Memo - rial and Sanctuary , her watercolour paintings explore themes of politics, ecology and mythology through placement of small people and animals on isolated grounds. The expanses of white space sur - rounding the mythical encounters between people and animals give the images a slightly surrealist or dream- like quality. At the same time, the pic - tures have a surprisingly strong sense of period and place that addresses, in par - ticular, moral and ecological concerns about species protection. New works include a fresh focus on more formal compositional devices for presenting visual narratives. These works have no specific theme other Kristin Bjornerud, Sanctuary (2010), watercolour and gouache [Gallery Jones, Vancouver BC, May 5-28] than “the lens of folktales, dreams, and magical realism”, as Bjornerud puts it. She experiments with placement, scale and groupings as well as the temporal and cinematographic qualities of her narratives in these slightly more complex scenes. Originally from Edmonton, Alberta, Kristin Bjornerud earned her MFA at the University of Saskatchewan (2005), her BFA from the University of Lethbridge (2002), and is the recipient of sev - eral grants from the Saskatchewan Arts Board. Her work is included in the collections of the Canada Council Art Bank, the Saskatchewan Arts Board and Citibank Canada. She currently lives and works in Hamilton, Ontario. Mia Johnson

The majority of her work utilizes and analyzes pub - lic modes of activism, from protest movements to letter- writing. Not an agitator per se, Hayes is interested in the strategies used by activists and protesters, the ways people come together in unified fronts at a specific time and place, and in the sociology of protest signs. As part of her own strategies, she has organized demonstrations that invite collaborators to analyze and define their roles, behaviour and actions. In her first solo Canadian exhibit, the CAG presents a multi-dimensional installation entitled In the Near Future (2005-ongoing). Incorporating 13 slide projectors and 354 images, In the Near Future features photos collected from audience members over the past four years of Hayes’s work in different cities in the U.S. and Europe, including New York, London, Warsaw, and Vienna. Her work has been shown throughout Europe and the United States, in Australia, Turkey , Japan and Colombia.

Although Jamasie also carves from traditional materials like serpentine and basalt stone, sometimes garnishing his pieces with details made from bits of antler, bone and copper wire, his work is completely different in form and content. The tongue-in-cheek carvings are assembled from small pieces of rock rather than cut from single blocks, and the subject matter is light-hearted. His modern-day objects include sewing machines, motor - cycles, tanks, cars, tools, golf clubs, electric guitars, sunglasses, vases filled with flowers and domestic objects – even a small toilet. Many of their parts are moveable. While his sassy work is inspired by televi - sion, magazines, current events and daily life, it occa - sionally incorporates Inuit motifs and symbols such as Sedna on a motorcycle. Other carvings, like a pair of sneakers riding a skateboard and a set of Minnie Mouse-like high heels, are whimsical to the extreme. Jamasie Pitseolak, Nunavut Chopper (2006), stone, caribou antler and animal tooth [Marion Scott Gallery, Vancouver In the first solo exhibition of Jamasie Pitseolak’s BC, Apr 9-May 14] artwork in a southern commercial gallery, Marion Scott Gallery presents 30 sculptures produced in the last four years as well as a series of charcoal drawings and prints. His carvings last appeared in a group show at Marion Scott in 2006, and are in the collection of the Canadian Museum of Civilization and the Winnipeg Art Gallery. Mia Johnson

62 PREVIEW I APRIL/MAY 2011 # OPEN LATE ON FIRST THURSDAY VIGNETTES • April/May 2011

Oregon ALLYN CANTOR HOLLY ANDRES: THE FALL OF SPRING HILL Charles A. Hartman Fine Art, Portland, April 6-May 14 Through lush, large-scale colour images, Portland photographer Holly Andres draws on her childhood memo - ries as the youngest of ten siblings by using authentic props and thrift store clothing to recreate a stylized feeling of the era when she came Holly Andres of age. In The Fall of Spring Hill , Andres recalls heroic acts performed by mothers striving to protect their children. These attractive images blend fact and fiction to capture threshold moments of ongoing melo - dramas, and seem to depict scenes from a larger story. TOM CRAMER: OREGON LANDMARKS Laura Russo Gallery, Portland, May 5-28 Known for his meticulously carved, painted and gilded wood reliefs, Tom Cramer, a native Oregonian, uses iconic locales throughout the state as subjects for a dual exploration of painting and Tom Cramer woodcarving. Cramer’s paintings are rendered in a pointillist style brought to life with a brilliant palette. The intricate carvings reveal nuances of imagery within highly activated surfaces filled with dense patterning. SEAN HEALY: UPSTATE Elizabeth Leach Gallery, Portland, April 7-May 28 Through a series of sculptural installations, Sean Healy reflects upon the history of his hometown, Brasher Falls, located in upstate New York near the St. Lawrence Seaway on the Canadian border. Brasher Falls was once the thriving site of several manufacturing plants – including General Motors and Alcoa aluminum – before they were down-sized or relocated. Healy sees the transformation Sean Healy as a metaphor for personal aging and changes in professional iden - tity, and shows how communities can become intertwined with local industry. KENTREE SPEIRS: DEPARTURES Blackfish Gallery, Portland, April 5- May 1 Kentree Speirs, who creates abstract landscapes as a method of expressing his deep relationship to the natural world, is inspired by the raw beauty and drama of untamed wilderness. The Portland artist spent 16 years immersed in mountaineering and wilderness backpacking travels before completing a BFA in 2006. He balances an expressive handling of paint with subtle organic forms that reflect Alpine environments, and seeks to capture stillness and movement and the tangible and intangible. His provocative assemblage of rich, Kentree Speirs vibrant colours creates a heightened sense of reality. MITCH DOBROWNER: STORMS Blue Sky Gallery, Portland, April 7-May 1 Inspired by classic photographers like Ansel Adams and Minor White, Mitch Dobrowner highlights scenes in nature in his dramatic black-and-white photographs. For Storms , Dobrowner travelled more than 19,000 miles through fourteen states in pursuit of extreme weather conditions. The series began while he was shooting thunder - storms across the Great Plains in an area known as Tornado Alley, Mitch Dobrowner and records looming clouds, fiercely beautiful thunderstorms, stark bolts of lightning, pounding hail and gusting winds.

# OPEN LATE ON FIRST THURSDAY PREVIEW 65 www.museumofcontemporarycraft.org Laurie Herrick: Weaving Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow MUSEUM OF CONTEMPORARY CRAFT, PORTLAND OR – Mar 17-Jul 30, 2011 The late Portland artist and master weaver Laurie Herrick (1908-1995) is the subject of a major exhibition that celebrates her life’s work and highlights weaving as a relevant contemporary craft and applied art. The exhibit highlights Herrick’s inventive woven structures in both abstract art pieces and loom-controlled “wearables”. Studio notes and thread samples provide insight into her practice. Interested in the physical motion of weaving, Herrick applied process-oriented techniques that echo grid-like mathematics. Her many Op Art designs are precise and immaculate while her open warp pieces are multi-layered expressionistic artworks. As a mid-century designer/craftsperson, Herrick worked at Martha Pollack’s Pasadena design studio in the 1940s before

moving to Portland where she taught at Oregon College of Art N O S R A L

region. Most notably, her three-panel Tree of Life tapestry (1970), A C

which still hangs at the First Unitarian Church of Portland, was N O I T C

Washington ALLYN CANTOR DEGENERATE ART ENSEMBLE Frye Art Museum, Seattle, through June 19 Degenerate Art Ensemble The internationally recognized Seattle-based Degenerate Art Ensem - ble (DAE) embarks on its most ambitious interdisciplinary event to date in their first museum project/art exhibition. Combining elements of music, dance, narrative, costume, sculpture, props and video projec - tions, the all-sensory inventions of DAE are filled with fantastic scenes. Exhibit-related events include four site-specific performances of DAE's latest work, Red Shoes , based on the horrific classic tale of a girl who, when wearing the red shoes, cannot stop dancing. WANXIN ZHANG: A TEN YEAR SURVEY Bellevue Arts Museum, Bellevue, through August 9 Wanxin Zhang’s massive ceramic figures are inspired by the soldiers of the Qin Terracotta Army – guards of the tomb of the First Emperor of China unearthed in Xi’an in 1974. His compelling Wanxin Zhang and witty large scale figurative sculptures reference the ancient culture of his native China but are blended with certain distinctly Western attributes. His work draws on the self-portraits of Robert Arneson, originator of the 1960s California Clay Funk Revolution, and Peter Voulkos, in whose foundry Zhang worked. CATHERINE COOK: OBJECT LESSONS Lisa Harris Gallery, Seattle, April 7-May 1 In her sense-stimulating oil paintings, Catherine Cook uses colour, mood and repetition in subtly sculpted surfaces and layered washes. Although the images are distilled from photographs, the act of painting itself determines the final outcome of each piece. Many of Cook’s works seem to reference the landscape, which is not necessar - ily the intention of the artist. Cook’s formalist attitude leaves the Catherine Cook interpretation of each piece up to the viewers. CAMERON ANNE MASON: SOFT EARTH Foster/White Gallery, Seattle, April 7-30 Shape and surface are primary elements in the organic sculptures of Cameron Anne Mason. Building on the culture of our agrarian past, Mason creates elegant pod-like forms which are hand- sewn from uniquely dyed, printed and embroidered fabric. In her first solo show at Foster/White, Mason is exhibiting two bodies of work: the Blade series, which serves as a metaphor for human interaction with the natural world, and the Cotyledons series, which examines growth, fertility and seeds as essential building blocks of culture.

THREE PHOTOGRAPHERS: MARSHA BURNS, ELLEN GARVENS, KATHY Cameron Anne Mason VARGAS Prographica/Fine Works on Paper, Seattle, April 2-May 14 Three artists with different stylistic approaches create complementa - ry works of high order and formal excellence. Using images of her own hands and feet as well as domestic objects, Ellen Garvens's Cast - ings series are eerie documentaries of the process of creating pros - thetics. Hand-coloured, multiple-exposure photographs from Kathy Vargas depict objects of innocence in a mysterious light, continuing her interest in family and cultural memory. Marsha Burns, a Seattle veteran, presents silver gelatin prints and new unique archival digital prints. Kathy Vargas www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 69 www.moa.ubc.ca Carl Beam MUSEUM OF ANTHROPOLOGY, VANCOUVER BC – Apr 8-May 29, 2011 Ojibway artist Carl Beam (1943-2005) is considered to have been an influential force in the development of contemporary First Nations art in Canada. Beam’s watercolours, etchings, photographs, photo transfers, installations and ceramics have a painterly, fluid style that – like Rauschenberg’s silkscreens of the early 1960s – combines photo transfers and posterized imagery with fragments of stencilled and handwritten text. The mixed- media collages on canvas, paper or plexiglass integrate multiple photographic images on single picture planes. This retrospective exhibition at Vancouver’s Museum of Anthro- Carl Beam, The North American Iceberg (1985), acrylic, photo-serigraph, and graphite on plexiglas [Museum of Anthropology, Vancouver BC, Apr 8-May 29] pology includes a selection of more Collection: National Gallery of Canada, Ottawa, Photo © NGC than fifty artworks from Beam’s thirty-year career. The exhibit was at the National Gallery in Ottawa until January 2011 and will continue to tour to Winnipeg, Regi - na, Thunder Bay, and the National Museum of the American Indian, New York.

In 2010, the work travelled from Paris to Winnipeg and Calgary, and will be exhibited during 2011 in Montreal, Toronto, Québec and Vancouver.

Pander’s paintings documenting the New Carissa oil spill and his evocative pieces of the last decade round out this thoughtful volume. Softcover, 136 pages, $29.95 USD; hardcover, $39.95. Available from Hallie Ford Museum of Art, Salem OR, 503-370-6855

Please note: Prices may be subject to additional charges for postage, handling and taxes. www.preview-art.com PREVIEW 71 www.seattleartmuseum.org/ Nick Cave: Meet Me at the Center of the Earth SEATTLE ART MUSEUM, SEATTLE WA – M ar 10-Jun 5, 2011 Chicago designer Nick Cave’s innovative art- work is featured in his first major nationally touring museum exhibition, Meet Me at the Center of the Earth. The sculptural works can be described as something between static assemblage art and adornment for performance, while succeeding as both. Cave dubs his ongoing thematic constructions Soundsuits. In these labour-intensive costume-like works, Cave sews ephemera like toys and other found materials inside the inner structures. Based on the nature of the found objects, the interior matter resonates with sounds with the movement of the wearer.

In pieces created from dyed human hair, various sounds can be Y R E L L
