For 125 years, starting with Daniel Burnham’s plans for the Columbian Exposition, Chicago has enjoyed being the leader of the building art. It has given America the first skyscraper and such icons of architecture as the Monadnock and Auditorium build- ings, Robie House, Crown Hall, Inland Steel and Sears Tower. This month, Chicago plays host again to a gath- ering of international architects, the Chicago Architecture Biennial, that will “take the tem- perature” of the field, as one participant put it. In this special issue, the New Art Examiner brings its art-based perspective to a sister art form.We have assembled five features and re- views that offer a Biennial overview, record the views of one of its artistic directors, looks at underrated Chicago architecture, reviews a graphic novel and exhibit by an architect/ artist.

    Gaylen Gerber 20 September - 21 December Opening Reception: 20 September 2018 at 6 – 7:30 p.m. Gallery Talk with Forrest Nash: 21 September 2018 at 12:00 – 1:00 p.m. The Arts Club of Chicago is pleased to present the first survey of Gaylen Gerber’s Supports, an ongoing series in which the artist intervenes upon collected artifacts. Offering pause for reflection on a shared history, Gerber’s art is indebted to both the monochrome and the readymade. Supports features objects of diverse origin, each painted uniformly in institutional gray or white. Whether a mirror from the Kennedy winter White House, a Brazilian milagre, or a vintage coke bottle, each is undated and bears the title Support. Gerber’s attentive, almost “reverential” brushstrokes, as Roberta Smith has described them in the New York Times, render the objects visible in a new way. This survey elaborates on the decentralization of attention while it affirms the all-encompassing aspects of the artists’ practice. For his exhibition at The Arts Club of Chicago, Gerber places the works in the gallery to suggest a cohesive visual field, yet at the same time, he differentiates each object through the regularity of its painted surface. The resulting installation encourages recognition of a shared reality, even as it enables diverse emotional responses to individual Supports, ranging from delight to distress. Gerber acknowledges the undertakings of vast cultural traditions as well as their often beautiful, sometimes poignant limitations. The exhibition further addresses a larger question about how and why objects so often remain compelling. The survey affirms the more inclusive aspects of the artist’s practice.

  • Best Art Shows of 2013
    Best art shows of 2013 'Impressionism' at Art Institute best in show in a funky year December 13, 2013 By Claudine Ise, Special to the Tribune Phyllis Bramson, "Idle Hours" (2000). (Elmhurst Art Museum) When it came to Chicago's visual art exhibitions, 2013 was not a historic year. There were few if any truly ambitious new art works, nor did we see many museums experimenting with innovative exhibition forms. Instead, 2013 was a year where artists and art institutions alike were consumed with the subject of history itself. Is looking backward the only way to move forward? For now, the answer seems to be yes, so we'll follow suit. Below, in no particular order, are this year's highlights. 1. "Impressionism, Fashion and Modernity" at the Art Institute of http://articles.chicagotribune.com/2013-12-13/entertainment/chi-best-art-shows-2013-20131213_1_art- institute-arts-club-imagism Chicago, June 26-September 29: It was designed to be a wildly popular, world-touring blockbuster, and in that it succeeded, but this incisive look at figurative painting's relationship to Parisian fashion from the 1860s-1880s also drew on rock-solid scholarship and offered fresh perspectives on familiar Impressionist classics — not to mention close- up views of the chicly beribboned garments that inspired them. 2. "Africobra in Chicago," The South Side Community Art Center, the Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts, and The Dusable Museum of African American History, May 10 – September 29: Not only did this vibrant trio of exhibitions and related programs offer the most comprehensive survey yet of the aesthetics, culture, and political philosophy of AFRICOBRA (African Commune of Bad Relevant Artists), they provided a necessary corrective to the notion that Imagism and its offshoots were Chicago's only historically significant postwar art movements.

  • Unlversiv Micrijfilms Intemationéü 300 N
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the fîlm along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the Him is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been fîlmed, you will And a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a defînite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

  • Chicago Political Artана2014анаthe Newberry Library
    Chicago Political Art ­ 2014 ­ The Newberry Library Instructor: Daniel Tucker | [email protected] | 312­515­7364 Starting with the 1906 publication of The Jungle by Upton Sinclair (held in the Newberry in Case 4A 362 Special Collections 4th floor), this seminar will look at how Chicago was established as a site for artists to use their tools to advocate for social and political transformation. The intersection of arts and crafts with early social work at Hull House will be traced through the African­American and Latino community muralists of the 1960s and 70s. More recent events such as Sculpture Chicago’s 1993 outdoor expo Culture in Action will be explored alongside of more activist public art like Department of Space and Land Reclamation in 2001. This course will address many artists (Ellen Gates Starr, Upton Sinclair, John T. McCutcheon, The Dill Pickle Club, Gwendolyn Brooks) that draw from reproduced materials or selections from the Newberry Library Core, Special Collections, and online exhibitions. Additionally, the students will be exposed to ephemera and publications related to more recent (1960s­Present) artists drawn together in the instructor’s newly organized “Chicago Ephemera Archives” (never­the­same.org). Through a fellowship at the Gray Center for Arts and Inquiry at the University of Chicago, the Never The Same archive is being developed to document local political art since the 1960s. These materials will be made available to the students to provide hands­on connection with the source­material and printed matter related to these practices. The artists and events covered in this seminar tell the story of the city, as well as the evolution of different aesthetic and artistic strategies and social movements.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE Nikos Alexiou THE END (once more) Athens-Venice 2007 Opening Thursday 8 November 2007, 8 pm Zoumboulakis Galleries, 20 Kolonaki Square Nikos Alexiou represents Greece in the 52nd Venice Biennale with the work “The End”, a modular installation inspired by the floor mosaic in the Catholicon of the Iviron Monastery on Mount Athos (10th-11th c. AD). Concurrently, on November 8 2007, he will exhibit under the same title at Zoumboulakis Galleries (20 Kolonaki Square) a series of large-scale prints (on archival paper) of the digitally manipulated representation of the floor mosaic. The valuable material (photographs, drawings, etc.) from the creative evolution of the work THE END, Athens-Venice 2007, will be included in a special limited edition book, created and signed by the artist. The book will be available from Zoumboulakis Galleries and selected bookstores. Yorgos Tzirtzilakis, commissioner / curator of the Hellenic participation in the 52nd Venice Biennale, comments in the exhibition catalogue: «Alexiou belongs to that generation of artists who, during the 1980s, expanded the object of art into the realm of installation… He turned from the outset to a fragile and ephemeral world which he introduced into the artistic language, setting the obsessive use of non figurative grids, patterns, decorations and repetitive structures as a kind of existential metaphor». Exhibition Duration: 8 November - 8 December 2007 Zoumboulakis Galleries, 20 Kolonaki Square Opening Times: Tu. - Fri. 11 am – 2 pm and 6–9 pm, Sat. 11 am – 2 pm Sunday & Monday closed Curriculum Vitae: Nikos Alexiou was born in Rethymnon in 1960.

  • Callimachus and Callimacheanism in the Poetry of Gregory of Nazianzus
    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA Callimachus and Callimacheanism in the Poetry of Gregory of Nazianzus A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the Department of Greek and Latin School of Arts and Sciences Of The Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy © Copyright All Rights Reserved By Matthew Alexander Theris Poulos Washington, D.C. 2019 Callimachus and Callimacheanism in the Poetry of Gregory of Nazianzus Matthew Alexander Theris Poulos, PhD Director: William McCarthy, PhD In this study, I analyze the poetics of Gregory of Nazianzus (ca. 330–390 AD), who was one of the first Christian poets writing in Greek to leave an extensive corpus of poetry (about 17,000 lines). Gregory work is striking not only for its breadth but also for its wide variety of themes and metrical schemes. As my focal point, I have chosen Gregory’s reception and adaptation of the poetry and poetics of Callimachus of Cyrene (ca. 290–230 BC). Callimachus was the first poet in the western tradition to enunciate an aesthetic and came to typify for subsequent authors an approach to poetry that privileged finely-wrought, compressed, and erudite compositions. I argue that for Gregory, Callimachus’ works are more than simply one more source to exploit for nice turns of phrase; rather, Callimachus pervasively shapes Gregory’s entire approach to poetic composition. This is seen not only in Gregory’s allusions to Callimachean works, which are numerous and occur quite frequently in programmatic contexts, but also in features of Gregory’s work like poikilia (variety) and a strong authorial persona that have their best precedent in Callimachus’ variegated oeuvre.
