  • A Tribute to Betty Price Thank You, Betty
    IMPROVING LIVES THROUGH THE ARTSNEWSLETTER OF THE OKLAHOMA ARTS COUNCIL FALL 2007 Thank You, Betty or 33 years, Betty Price has been the voice of the Oklahoma Arts Council. Recently retired Fas Executive Director, Price has been at the helm of this state agency for most of its existence. We couldn’t think of anyone more eloquent than her good friend, Judge Robert Henry to celebrate Betty and her passionate commitment to Oklahoma and to the arts. We join Judge Henry and countless friends in wishing Betty a long, happy and productive retirement. A Tribute to Betty Price From Judge Robert Henry ur great President John Fitzgerald Kennedy once noted: “To further the appreciation of Oculture among all the people, to increase respect for the creative individual, to widen participation by all the processes and fulfillments of art -- this is one of the fascinating challenges of these days.” Betty Price took that challenge more seriously than any other Oklahoman. And, it is almost impossible to imagine what Oklahoma’s cultural landscape would look like without her gentle, dignified, and incredibly Betty in front of the We Belong to the Land mural by Jeff Dodd. persistent vision. Photo by Keith Rinerson forMattison Avenue Publishing Interim Director. Finally, she was selected by the Council to serve as its Executive Director. Betty, it seems, has survived more Oklahoma governors than any institution except our capitol; she has done it with unparalleled integrity and artistic accomplishment.

  • RECENT ACQUISITIONS Dear Friends and Collectors
    WALLY FINDLAY GALLERIES RECENT ACQUISITIONS Dear Friends and Collectors, Wally Findlay Galleries is pleased to present our most recent e-catalogue, Recent Acquisitions, featuring the newest additions to our collection. The catalogue features works by Aizpiri, Berthelsen, Brasilier, Cahoon, Calder, Cassignieul, Chagall, D’Espagnat, Jean Dufy, Gen Paul, Hambourg, Hervé, Indiana, Kluge, Leger, Le Pho, Miró, Outin, Sébire, Sipp-Green, Simbari, Simkohvitch, and Vu Cao Dam.

WALLY FINDLAY GALLERIES 124 East 57th Street, New York, NY (212) 421 5390 [email protected] Aïzpiri Paul Aïzpiri (b. 1919) was born in Paris on May 14, 1919. Aïzpiri entered l’École Bulle to learn antique restoration, after his father insisted that he first learn a trade as a means of assuring his livelihood. After the course he entered the Beaux-Arts to study painting. Aïzpiri was certainly encouraged as a young painter in his early 20’s, during somber war-torn France, exhibiting amongst the painters of l’École Pont-Aven and the Nabis. He became a member of the Salon d’Automne in 1945, won Third Prize at the Salon de Moins de Trente Ans, of which he was a founding member and later showed at the Salon “Les Peintres Témoin de leur Temps”. In 1948, Aïzpiri won the Prix Corsica which allowed him to go to Marseilles. His stay there so impressed him, that he declared it was a turning point of his art. Not only did he find a whole new world to paint which was far different subjectively from any life he had known in Paris, but also a new world of color.

  • Abstract and Figurative: Highlights of Bay Area Painting January 8 – February 28, 2009 John Berggruen Gallery Is Pleased to Pr
    Abstract and Figurative: Highlights of Bay Area Painting January 8 – February 28, 2009 John Berggruen Gallery is pleased to present Abstract and Figurative: Highlights of Bay Area Painting, a survey of historical works celebrating the iconic art of the Bay Area Figurative movement. The exhibition will occupy two floors of gallery space and will include work by artists Elmer Bischoff, Theophilus Brown, Richard Diebenkorn, Manuel Neri, Nathan Oliveira, David Park, Wayne Thiebaud, James Weeks, and Paul Wonner. Abstract and Figurative is accompanied by an illustrated catalogue with an introduction by art historian and Director of the Palm Springs Art Museum and former Associate Director and Chief Curator of the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, Steven A. Nash. Many of the works included in Abstract and Figurative are on loan from museums and private collections and have rarely been exhibited to the public. John Berggruen Gallery is proud to have this opportunity to bring these paintings together in commemoration of the creative accomplishments of such distinguished artists. Please join us for our opening reception on Thursday, January 8, 2009 between 5:30 and 7:30 pm. Nash writes, “There is no more fabled chapter in the history of California Art than the audacious stand made by Bay Area Figurative painters against Abstract Expressionism in the 1950s.” This regionalized movement away from the canon of the New York School (as championed by artists Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning, and critic Clement Greenberg, among others) finds its roots in 1949, when a young painter by the name of David Park “gathered up all his abstract- expressionist canvases and, in an act that has gone down in local legend, drove to the Berkeley city dump and destroyed them.”1 Disillusioned with the strict non-representational tenets of a movement that promoted the Greenbergian notion of “purity” in art towards a perpetually evolving abstraction, Park submitted Kids on Bikes (1950), a small figurative painting, to a 1951 competitive exhibition and won.

  • The Jamison Galleries Collection
    THE JAMISON GALLERIES COLLECTION BETTY W. AND ZEB B. CONLEY PAPERS New Mexico Museum of Art Library and Archives Dates: 1950 - 1995 Extent: 7.33 linear feet Contents Part One. Materials on Artists and Sculptors Part Two. Photographs of Works Part Three. Additional Material Revised 01/11/2018 Preliminary Comments The Jamison Galleries [hereafter referred to simply as “the Gallery”] were located on East Palace Avenue, Santa Fe, from August 1964 until January 1993, at which time it was moved to Montezuma Street. There it remained until December 1997, when it closed its doors forever. Originally owned by Margaret Jamison, it was sold by her in 1974 to Betty W. and Zeb B. Conley. The Library of the Museum of Fine Arts is indebted to the couple for the donation of this Collection. A similar collection was acquired earlier by the Library of the records of the Contemporaries Gallery. Some of the artists who exhibited their works at this Gallery also showed at The Contemporaries Gallery. Included in the works described in this collection are those of several artists whose main material is indexed in their own Collections. This collection deals with the works of a vast array of talented artists and sculptors; and together with The Contemporaries Gallery Collection, they comprise a definitive representation of southwestern art of the late 20th Century. Part One contains 207 numbered Folders. Because the contents of some are too voluminous to be limited to one folder, they have been split into lettered sub-Folders [viz. Folder 79-A, 79-B, etc.]. Each numbered Folder contains material relating to a single artist or sculptor, all arranged — and numbered — alphabetically.

  • In Turn-Of-The-Century Paris, an Explosion of Brash New Art
    1 In Turn-of-the-Century Paris, An Explosion of Brash New Art Dubbed 'les Fauves' (the wild beasts) for their uninhibited use of color, these artists boldly rearranged the imagery of nature By Helen Dudar, Smithsonian, October, 1990 The scandal of the Parisian art world in 1905 was Room VII of the third annual Salon d'Automne in the Grand Palais, its walls throbbing with raw color. Color squeezed straight out of tubes; color assaulting the eye and senses; color that sometimes seemed to have been flung upon the canvas; color that dared to tint human flesh pea green and tree trunks a violent Andre Derain, The Turning Road, L’Estaque, 1906 red; color that not only refused to imitate nature but actually had been used to suggest form and depth. The signatures on the paintings bore the names of men some of whom, surviving notoriety, would soon be more or less famous. Henri Matisse, the oldest of them and the unlikely center of this radical new style, would flourish into his 85th year as one of the masters of our century. Andre Derain would, for a time, produce works of breathtaking originality and virtuosity. Albert Marquet and Henri Manguin, less than household names in our day, would be the best-sellers of the group because they turned out tamer work that was gentler to the untutored eye. Maurice de Vlaminck, a larger-than-life figure and a devout fabulist, would claim with some exaggeration that he was really the first to engage with the new style, and then, the first to abandon it.
