As she increasingly began working in two dimensions, she translated many of the symbolic elements that she had developed in clay into her explorations of new mediums. In the recent paintings and photographs that are displayed alongside her sculpture, certain natural motifs recur in different forms, and the interdisciplinary nature of Mary’s artistic practice can be seen in the shared monumentality of this broad, yet unified, exhibition. Mary Frank has had numerous solo museum and gallery exhibitions over the years, including two retrospectives at the Neuberger Museum in Purchase, NY (2000 and 1979), and the show Natural Histories, organized by the DeCordova Museum, in Lincoln, MA, (1988), which traveled to the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Philadelphia, and the Everson Museum of Art, Syracuse, NY. She was included in the 1973 and 1989 Whitney Biennials, and her work is in the permanent collections of many museums including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Museum of Modern Art, New York; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; and National Museum of Art, Washington, DC Also on view in the project gallery: Charles Burchfield: American Landscapes.

    DC Moore Gallery Press Contact: Sandra Paci 212-247-2111 Mary Frank: The Near Far - Portraits and Paintings January 9 - February 9, 2008 Reception for the artist: Wednesday, January 9 from 6:00 to 7:30 pm Mary Frank, installation of drawings at DC Moore Gallery Mary Frank is drawn to the concept, most often expressed in Asian thought, of events, time, and understanding that is simultaneously both near and far. This concept explains the trajectory of much of the current work in this new exhibition. This recent body of work encompasses both large oil and small encaustic paintings as well as a group of more that fifty portrait drawings - some started years earlier and many drawn within the last five years. Mary describes these as "portraits of people I have known, of people I have imagined, and portraits of portraits from the past." Mary treats the landscape of the face in similar ways to the landscapes of the caves, crevices, and vistas that she finds in the natural world -- adding elements of other objects, shapes and individuals -- taking her work out of literal description and expressing a viewpoint that is both close and intimate and expressive of larger realities. She has described the color that emerges in her paintings as "…dredged from within. It is the color of memory." Running throughout Mary's work is a deep emotional resonance. - over - - continued - As Linda Nochlin has observed: "Mary Frank reveals herself...to be the visual poet of the inner life, evoking the pain and the mystery of our human embeddedness in the natural world.

Looking at the artist portraits and stories that follow in this book, we at the Foundation also turned to Rilke, a poet known for his letters of advice to a young artist.

  • Let's Create Shapes and Forms Using Salt Dough
    Let’s Create Shapes and Forms Using Salt Dough A project inspired by the figurative sculptures of Mary Frank What is Figurative Art? Figurative describes any form of art that retains strong references to the real world, particularly to the human figure. Figurative forms can be organic, which are realistic represen- tations of the natural world and/or living things, or geometric, which are more mechanical and are usually made by humans. Activity Young artists will use a technique known as hand building to pinch, coil, roll and slab forms to create a work of art. This is similar to the technique that Mary Frank uses to create her sculptures in clay. Materials Dough Salt, flour and water Equipment An oven, bowl and baking sheet Supplies Aluminum foil, parchment paper (to bake and cover your work surface), and a paintbrush Optional A rolling pin and tools to cut (such as a table knife, pizza wheel, and simple shape cookie cutters such as rounds or squares). This project was created by the Neuberger Museum of Art Education team. [email protected] Art History: What do you see? Before we get started with the project, let’s look for similarities in the figurative forms that were created a long time ago and the work that Mary Frank has created during her career: Pre-Historic Cave Paintings Original Charcoal and Watercolor by Mary Frank Discovered in 1940 at Lascaux in the South of France, Circa 1970. Charcoal on paper. the cave contains nearly 6,000 figures in three main categories: animals, human figures, and abstract signs.

    THE JEAN-NOËL HERLIN ARCHIVE PROJECT Jean-Noël Herlin New York City 2005 Table of Contents Introduction i Individual artists and performers, collaborators, and groups 1 Individual artists and performers, collaborators, and groups. Selections A-D 77 Group events and clippings by title 109 Group events without title / Organizations 129 Periodicals 149 Introduction In the context of my activity as an antiquarian bookseller I began in 1973 to acquire exhibition invitations/announcements and poster/mailers on painting, sculpture, drawing and prints, performance, and video. I was motivated by the quasi-neglect in which these ephemeral primary sources in art history were held by American commercial channels, and the project to create a database towards the bibliographic recording of largely ignored material. Documentary value and thinness were my only criteria of inclusion. Sources of material were random. Material was acquired as funds could be diverted from my bookshop. With the rapid increase in number and diversity of sources, my initial concept evolved from a documentary to a study archive project on international visual and performing arts, reflecting the appearance of new media and art making/producing practices, globalization, the blurring of lines between high and low, and the challenges to originality and quality as authoritative criteria of classification and appreciation. In addition to painting, sculpture, drawing and prints, performance and video, the Jean-Noël Herlin Archive Project includes material on architecture, design, caricature, comics, animation, mail art, music, dance, theater, photography, film, textiles and the arts of fire. It also contains material on galleries, collectors, museums, foundations, alternative spaces, and clubs.
