With Moment Marigold, the need for the aloneness, and loneliness, Moment in the studio evaporated. It quickly became clear that this work needed the presence of both EmmaGrace and Maggie very early on in the process. I Marigold was working with ideas of the constant unfolding/unraveling of movement, of gnarled knots and images, motionless movement, pulled from a never- CHOREOGRAPHY ending desire to create new physical Jodi Melnick sequences and sensations in the body. Within the plentitude of dance PERFORMERS material we reference motifs from Jodi Melnick previous moments in the piece but not EmmaGrace Skove-Epes as an attempt to establish a thematic Maggie Thom structure. These references are fleeting, used to rouse the work into the next MUSIC phase of unraveling. The work is driven Steven Reker by our physical expressiveness; the body is the living, sensing, biological LIGHTING DESIGN plant that we implement as our Joe Levasseur aesthetic material. The experience of the performer drives the work without COSTUME DESIGN it being about the persona. I question Reid Bartelme & Harriet Jung if that is possible. Once the work was well on its way to becoming what I thought it was going to be, it changed drastically as it meshed with the actual space, Joe’s lighting design, Steven’s score, and Reid and Harriet’s costume Creation of Moment Marigold was design.

  • Rendering Rhythm and Motion in the Art of Black Mountain College
    A Lasting Imprint Rendering Rhythm and Motion in the Art of Black Mountain College Movement and music—both time-based activities—can be difficult to express in static media such as painting, drawing, and photography, yet many visual artists feel called to explore them. Some are driven to devise new techniques or new combinations of media in order to capture or suggest movement. Similarly, some visual artists utilize elements found in music—rhythms, patterns, repetitions, and variations—to endow their compositions with new expressive potency. In few places did movement, music, visual arts, and myriad other disciplines intermingle with such profound effect as they did at Black Mountain College (BMC), an experiment in higher education in the mountains of Western North Carolina that existed from 1933 to 1957. For many artists, their introduction to interdisciplinarity at the college resulted in a continued curiosity around those ideas throughout their careers. The works in the exhibition, selected from the Asheville Art Museum’s Black Mountain College Collection, highlight approaches to rendering a lasting imprint of the ephemeral. Artists such as Barbara Morgan and Clemens Kalischer seek to capture the motion of the human form, evoking a sense of elongated or contracted muscles, or of limbs moving through space. Others, like Lorna Blaine Halper or Sewell Sillman, approach the challenge through abstraction, foregoing representation yet communicating an atmosphere of dynamic change. Marianne Preger-Simon’s drawings of her fellow dancers at BMC from summer 1953 are not only portraits but also a dance of pencil on paper, created in the spirit of BMC professor Josef Albers’s line studies as she simultaneously worked with choreographer Merce Cunningham.

Without a press of its own, however, the college relied on the office typewriter for the first preliminary announcements and more generally on Biltmore Press, Asheville’s leading commercial job printer, for its first years’ issues of bulletins, catalogs, and educational statements. But for the purposes of his students’ education, and for the second-tier job printing of administrative forms and stationery, publicity flyers and brochures, programs and announcements for musical and dramatic presentations, Albers needed a press.1 He set Alexander (Xanti) Schawinsky on the hunt for one.

  • 2019 Annual Report
    2019 ANNUAL REPORT Dear Friends, This has been another year of unparalleled exhibitions and performances, a celebration of what’s possible in our new home and with the support of our community. At the beginning of 2019, we were in the last few weeks of the inaugural exhibition at 120 College Street, Between Form and Content: Perspectives on Jacob Lawrence and Black Mountain College, which was a major accomplishment in its scope and its expansion of community partnerships. Next, we presented an intimate look at the school’s political dimensions, both internal and external, through the exhibition Politics at Black Mountain College. During the same time period, the exhibition Aaron Siskind: A Painter’s Photographer and Works on Paper by BMC Artists revealed the photographer’s elegant approach to abstraction alongside works by others in his circle of influence. From June through August, our galleries filled with sound as part of Materials, Sounds + Black Mountain College, an exploration of contemporary experimental and material-based processes rooted in theories and practices developed at Black Mountain College. We closed out the year with VanDerBeek + VanDerBeek, an exhibition that bridges the historic and contemporary through an intergenerational artistic conversation. 2019 also marked the 100th birthday of Merce Cunningham, and 100 years since the founding of the Bauhaus, which closed in the same year Black Mountain College opened, seeding the latter with its faculty and utopian values. Both centennials sparked global celebrations, transcending geographic and disciplinary boundaries to honor the impact of courageous communities and collaborators. Image credit: Come Hear NC (NCDNCR) | Ken Fitch We joined the world in these celebrations through a special installation of historic dance films of the Cunningham Dance Company at this year’s {Re}HAPPENING, the exhibition BAUHAUS 100, and a virtual reality exploration of the Bauhaus Dessau building, on loan from the Goethe- Institut.

There could not be a more ideal situation than to share our Catherine Opie: Portraits building with UCLA, our new landlord, with whom we have January 30–May 22, 2016 had such a long affiliation. News about our building followed fast on the heels of our Still Life with Fish 13th Gala in the Garden, honoring Diane Keaton and Paul Photography from the UCLA Grunwald Center for the McCarthy. Once again, Los Angeles’s cultural and civic Graphic Arts and the Hammer Contemporary Collection leaders as well as artists, collectors, and arts patrons turned out to raise $2.5 million to support the Hammer.
