    Borderline Research Histories of Art between Canada and the United States, c. 1965–1975 Adam Douglas Swinton Welch A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art University of Toronto © Copyright by Adam Douglas Swinton Welch 2019 Borderline Research Histories of Art between Canada and the United States, c. 1965–1975 Adam Douglas Swinton Welch Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art University of Toronto 2019 Abstract Taking General Idea’s “Borderline Research” request, which appeared in the first issue of FILE Megazine (1972), as a model, this dissertation presents a composite set of histories. Through a comparative case approach, I present eight scenes which register and enact larger political, social, and aesthetic tendencies in art between Canada and the United States from 1965 to 1975. These cases include Jack Bush’s relationship with the critic Clement Greenberg; Brydon Smith’s first decade as curator at the National Gallery of Canada (1967–1975); the exhibition New York 13 (1969) at the Vancouver Art Gallery; Greg Curnoe’s debt to New York Neo-dada; Joyce Wieland living in New York and making work for exhibition in Toronto (1962–1972); Barry Lord and Gail Dexter’s involvement with the Canadian Liberation Movement (1970–1975); the use of surrogates and copies at the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design (1967–1972); and the Eternal Network performance event, Decca Dance, in Los Angeles (1974). Relying heavily on my work in institutional archives, artists’ fonds, and research interviews, I establish chronologies and describe events. By the close of my study, in the mid-1970s, the movement of art and ideas was eased between Canada and the United States, anticipating the advent of a globalized art world.

Tapestry Translations in the Twentieth Century: The Entwined Roles of Artists, Weavers, and Editeurs Ann Lane Hedlund The Gloria F. Ross Center for Tapestry Studies Arizona State Museum, University of Arizona, Tucson [email protected] Historically, European tapestry making involved collaboration among artists, designers, draftsmen, cartoon makers, spinners, dyers, weavers, patrons, dealers, and other professionals. This specialized system of labor continued in modified form into the twentieth century in certain European and American weaving workshops. In contrast and with a small number of exceptions, American tapestry in the last half of the twentieth century has centered on weaver-artists working individually in their studios from their own designs. This paper focuses, in a very preliminary way, on one exceptional example of continuity, or revival, of the European specialized labor system—the creation of a group of twentieth century tapestries orchestrated by editeur Gloria F.

  • Paul Feeley: Space Stands Still
    Press Release Paul Feeley: Space Stands Still 12 April – 6 June 2021 Waddington Custot is pleased to present Paul Feeley: Space Stands Still, the first solo exhibition of Feeley’s work in the UK for over 50 years. The exhibition shines a light on this significant but relatively overlooked artist who worked with Clement Greenberg and played a pivotal role in the careers of many seminal abstract artists, including Helen Frankenthaler. This exhibition charts the development of Feeley’s abstraction over the course of his brief but prolific career, presenting pieces from the 1950s through to those created just before his untimely death in 1966 at the age of 55. Over 20 works by Feeley, including oil on canvas paintings and three-dimensional sculptures in wood, are shown in the UK for the first time. The works are characterised by Feeley’s distinctive approach to symmetry and pattern through curving shapes in vibrant colours. The central forms and repeated motifs, often in symmetrical clusters, are reminiscent of vertebrae and teeth, molecular structures or jacks. Although often associated with Abstract Expressionism, Feeley broke with the movement in the 1940s. Speaking to Lawrence Alloway in 1964, the artist explained ‘I began to dwell on pyramids and things like that instead of on jungles of movement and action… The things I couldn’t forget in art, were things, which made no attempt to be exciting.’ And so Feeley’s work moved away from gestural abstraction and into ‘a quiescent art of stability, poise, and space’, as described by Douglas Dreishpoon in Imperfections by Chance (his 2015 essay on Feeley).

  • Kenneth Noland: Paintings, 1958-1968 Mitchell-Innes & Nash
    Kenneth Noland: Paintings, 1958-1968 Mitchell-Innes & Nash Chelsea March 17 – April 30, 2011 For Immediate Release: New York, February 2, 2011 - Mitchell-Innes & Nash is pleased to announce its first solo exhibition of paintings by Kenneth Noland, on view in the Chelsea gallery from March 17 - April 30. The exhibition, “Kenneth Noland: Paintings, 1958-1968,” will feature major paintings dating from the artist’s first decade of mature work. It will include significant early examples of the circle, stripe and chevron compositions that would become Noland’s signature forms throughout his career. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue with an essay by art historian Paul Hayes Tucker. Kenneth Noland (1924-2010) is among the most influential Post- War abstract artists and one of the central figures of Color Field painting. His unprimed canvases with geometric forms painted in thin washes of pure, saturated color forged a new direction in abstract art. The artist’s stated aim was to explore "the infinite range and expressive possibilities of color." Later referred to in the New York Times as “paradigms of American plain statement,” these spare, reductive works were seen as bold departures from Abstract Expressionism and as ‘minimalist’ painting. This exhibition and extensive catalogue will present new insight into the artist’s life, his influences, and the impact American popular culture had on his art and vice-versa. In the late 1950s and early 1960s Noland began working with two motifs, the circle and the chevron, which would have lasting importance in his work. These seemingly simple forms resonated deeply within Noland’s history, calling to mind badges on military uniforms from his army days, logos for cars and other consumer products ubiquitous in the post-war economy, and even the theories of Wilhelm Reich whose writings Noland encountered in the 50s.

  • Color Field, Then And
    Color Field, Then and Now I fear that the visual culture in which these works were admired is now one of those distant “you had to be there” moments, which are impossible to reconstruct. by David Carrier March 7, 2020 Paul Feeley, Formal Haut, 1965, oil-based enamel on canvas, 60 x 60 inches The Fullness of Color: 1960s Painting at the Guggenheim Museum, New York, is a small catalogue-less exhibition that presents a large roomful of Color Field paintings. The show includes Kenneth Noland’s “Trans Shift” (1964), in which a suspended blue and green chevron, set on the white canvas ground, reaches almost to the bottom edge of the frame; Jules Olitski’s “Lysander-I” (1970), where the reddish mist in the upper right quadrant slowly fades into yellow; Alma Thomas’s “Cherry Blossom Symphony” (1972), with a violet background on which small marks of dark blue are superimposed — they look a little like the lozenges in some of Larry Poon’s early paintings. (Thomas actually is the most interesting artist here. Her presence puzzles me, for I don’t usually associate her with these other Color Field painters.) In Morris Louis’s “I-68” (1962), a field of thinly painted colors descends vertically. And Helen Frankenthaler’s “Canal” (1963) sets an irregularly shaped orange-yellow form of billowing color in front of a blue patch and, at the top, behind a dark grayish form. And there are two minor paintings, Gene Davis’s big “Wheelbarrow” (1971) and Paul Feeley’s decorative “Formal Haut” (1965). A review should focus on the art displayed.

NeWmanN �NarRatiVe PoRtfOlio — by Antonia Dapena-Tretter Abstract Unpacking Robert W. Newmann's portfolio requires a layered approach with equal attention paid to biography, aesthetics, and the larger art market of the 1970s to the present. These diverse methodologies intertwine to reveal the artist's surprising rejection of the Washington 1. 3 Color School tradition of ethereal stained canvases in favor of the real space of large-scale installations. Literal layers—taking the form of pigment added to the canvas or inches of substrate sandblasted away— Bulletin 3 separate Newmann's art from that of his teachers and serve as a common thread, tying together enormous shifts in practice and medium. Although each period of the artist's oeuvre reinforces his strong attraction to the experiential, the unexpected challenges of wedding an artwork to the space around it ultimately drove Newmann to accept and embrace the unavoidable nature of the immaterial. Peeling Back Robert W. Newmann — Narrative Portfolio Washington Post critic Paul Richard theorized that 1960s D.C.-based artists such as Kenneth Noland, Thomas Downing, and Gene Davis «worked from a particular sensibility, nourished by the grids and circles of the original L’Enfant plan.»1 If this is taken to be true, the hard- edged lines of the Washington Color School canvases were born from the same inspiration as Robert Newmann’s For Pierre L’Enfant (pic.

  • Art-Presentation: Kenneth Noland, Dream Idea Machine, May 2019
    Press Reviews Vassiliki Liakopoulou, ‘Art-Presentation: Kenneth Noland, Dream Idea Machine, May 2019 ART-PRESENTATION: Kenneth Noland Kenneth Noland, an innovative colorist, is considered nowadays as one of the leading figures of the American Color Field and Post Painterly Abstraction. Educated from 1946 to 1948 at the Black Mountain College with Josef Albers, he adopted a Minimalist approach comprised vivid colors and simple geometric shapes in endless variations. By Vassiliki Liakopoulou Photo: Galerie Almine Rech Paris Archive Galerie Almine Rech Paris, in collaboration with the Paige Rense Noland 2008 Marital Trust and the Kenneth Noland Foundation, presents for the first time paintings of Kenneth Noland. This selection of works, rarely shown in Paris and generally in France, constitutes an important survey exhibition of Kenneth Noland’s work realized between 1960 and 2006. By 1960, the artist, inspired by Helen Frankenthaler’s technique of staining unprimed canvas, has started to experiment with a wide range of acrylic hues in concentric circles and chevrons. Despite seemingly simple forms, these shapes are connected within Noland’s history from his army days and even with the theories of Wilhelm Reich, whose writings Noland encountered in the 50s. In the 70s, he concentrates in a new direction of his work inventing the plaid patterns on variously shaped canvases- also included several square diamonds- and “playing” with the edges of paintings’ shapes by means of color. From the end of 70s and the early 1980s, the shapes ranged from regular to slightly irregular and unconventional irregular hexagons culminating in the slender forms referred to as surfboards.
