  • Annual Report for the Year 2003–2004
    2003–2004 ANNUAL REPORT SAM Students with Sanislo Feast SAM CONNECTS ART TO LIFE CONTEMPORARY CHINESE ARTIST LI JIN’S A FEAST made a permanent impression on the fourth- and fifth-grade students at Sanislo Elementary School. Inspired by the fifty-nine- foot-long painting depicting food from a traditional Chinese dinner on a background of recipes written in Chinese calligraphy, the students set out to re-create their own version. Art teachers Ruth Winter and Carolyn Autenrieth designed the project to celebrate the diversity of cultures at their school. Students painted their favorite ethnic foods, and staff helped transcribe the recipes into the students’ original languages. On display at the Seattle Asian Art Museum last spring, the students’ work, Sanislo Feast, a fifty-foot-long art scroll portraying food and languages from seventeen different nations and cultures, reflected the heritage of Sanislo students and staff. Students, families and teachers commemorated the unveiling of their “masterpiece” with a special celebration at SAAM. cover: Li Jin, China, born 1958, A Feast, 2001, ink on Xuan paper, 39 3/8 x 708 5/8 in., Courtesy of the artist and CourtYard Gallery, Beijing right: Wolfgang Groschedel and Kunz Lochner, Equestrian armor for Philip II, ca. 1554, etched steel and gold, Patrimonio Nacional, Real Armería, Madrid SEATTLE ART MUSEUM TABLE OF CONTENTS 1 Director’s Letter 17 Betty Bowen Award 2 Board of Trustees 18 Reaching Out to Youth & Families 3 Broadening, Deepening, Diversifying 19 Teaching and Learning 4–5 One Museum, Three

  • PDX CONTEMPORARY ART Is Pleased to Present New Paintings by Portland-Based Artist Adam Sorensen
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Kill: February 30, 2020 WHO: Adam Sorensen WHAT: Skeleton WHEN: January 15 - February 29, 2020 WHERE: PDX CONTEMPORARY ART 925 NW Flanders Street, Portland, OR 97209 HOURS: 11:00 – 6:00 Tuesday – Saturday ADMISSION: Free Open First Thursday February 6, 2020, 6:00 – 8:00 EXHIBITION NOTES: PDX CONTEMPORARY ART is pleased to present new paintings by Portland-based artist Adam Sorensen. Bringing together many sources, including reference to the Hudson River School painters of the American West, the Romanticism of Caspar David Friedrich, animation aesthetics, and the ukiyo-e traditions of Japanese woodcuts, Adam Sorensen makes landscape paintings that are familiar, yet otherworldly. On one hand optimistic and sublime, these paintings depict watery rills, lakes, and rivers that transport the viewer to a place with elements that are easily recognizable, but altogether feel utopian. Adam Sorensen, FlusSkelett, 2019, oil on linen, 38” x 34” With this utopia comes a sinister absence— a landscape that feels untouched and unaltered by life. Skeleton makes reference to a reexamination and excavation of past work, with many of the paintings in the show referencing and revisiting works that the artist has made over his fifteen year-long career. Adam Sorensen received a Bachelors of Fine Arts from Alfred University in New York and a Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in painting from the Studio Art International, Florence, Italy. His work has been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions, including shows at PDX CONTEMPORARY ART (Portland, OR), Whatcom Museum (Bellingham, WA), Archer Gallery (Vancouver, WA), Worksound (Portland, OR), and the Newberg Gallery at the Glasgow School of Art (Glasgow, Scotland).

  • Louis Leslie Thesis Without Copyright Images
    ‘Writing Consciously for a Small Audience’: An Exploration of the Relationship between American Magazine Culture and Henry James’ Italian Fiction 1870-1875 ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Louis Laurence Leslie ! UCL ! ! PhD P2 ! ! I, Louis Laurence Leslie, conSirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been deriVed from other sources, I can conSirm that this has !been indicated in the thesis. P3 ! Thesis Abstract ! This thesis explores Henry James’ engagement in his relatiVely neglected early Siction about Italy with material from contemporary magazine culture. By bridging the gap between critics who focus on James’ relationship with Italian culture, and those who examine James’ relationship with his publishers and audience, it aims to explore how he uses interest in Italy manifested in literary magazines to deVelop his writing and build his reputation. The Sirst part of the thesis explores how James writes about Italian culture in his Sirst tales in ways with which his audience would be familiar, in order to cultiVate his readership. The Sirst three chapters deal with ‘TraVelling Companions’ (1870), ‘At Isella’ (1871), and ‘The Madonna of the Future’ (1873) respectiVely. Looking at how magazines represent contemporary debates about the Italian artists and works of art that James depicts, I study the way James draws on this context to !emphasise the relationship between culture and character in his Siction. The second half examines his Siction after 1873 in the light of James’ sense of his emerging literary reputation. Aware of his growing fame, James began to write tales incorporating material from his own serialised traVel writing, thus reinforcing his reputation as a writer about Italy.
