The Illustration Game: Quotes and Notes Jaleen Grove The Illustration Game, published in Communication Arts magazine, is an artwork that critically evaluates and satirizes the illustration industry 1959-2019. It conceives of the time period in the form of a board game in which players roll a die to advance along a path, accumulating points or losing them according to typical events of each decade. The path winds through a forest of quotations that were said in print at the time or shortly after by leading illustrators and critics. For the quotations to read properly and succinctly, wording was very slightly modified in some cases. The sources and the quotes without modification are given here for those who wish to see context and origin. This document only discusses the quotations that appear in the black background. -
Barbara Nessim Is an Artist Whose Daring and Prolific Work, Spanning Five Decades, Defies Narrow Categorization
Barbara Nessim is an artist whose daring and prolific work, spanning five decades, defies narrow categorization. In its broadest sense, her artistic production has straddled fine art and illustration, all the while, pushing against and reshaping the boundaries of the often-rigid separation between the two fields. With her artworks on paper informing her commercial illustrations, Nessim’s work always begins with line or color, independent of medium, context or application. Her vibrant colorful imagery is figurative, conceptual and yet also symbolic and deeply intuitive. Its power and enduring relevance lies in its elegant fusion of skillful technique, deep cultural engagement and pop culture resonance. Nessim’s artworks, as her biography, are the story of New York City over the past five decades, the story of evolving gender equality and the story of shifting artistic and cultural landscapes. Her works have been exhibited and collected internationally, including recently at the V&A and the Bard Graduate Center Gallery. As a young, single, professional woman in the early 1960s, her career as an illustrator broke conventions of all sorts. Surrounded and supported early on by prominent illustrators, Nessim became part of a broadly defined milieu of socially minded individuals working within a publicly visible arena. A Bronx native, Nessim graduated from Pratt in 1960 where she studied Graphic Art and Illustration. At a time in which students were encouraged to emulate Abstract Expressionism, the era’s prevailing movement in art, Nessim privately made small- scale paintings with narrative emphasis— short visual stories evoking situations between people. With the encouragement and support of several key people, in particular Robert Weaver, Nessim’s professor at Pratt, she soon caught the attention of Milton Glaser, Seymour Chwast, Henry Wolf, Robert Benton, among others, who welcomed the much junior Nessim into their circle. -

Barbara Nessim: Stargirl
Barbara Nessim: Stargirl 20 April - 19 June, 2021 515 West 29th St., New York Malin Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of paintings, ceramics and digital works by the New York-based artist Barbara Nessim. Stargirl will feature 14 large-scale paintings from a new series of work, The Wo/men In My Life, inspired by drawings from Nessim’s sketchbooks from the 1970s. The new paintings will be accompanied by selections from several of the artist’s other most important bodies of work stretching back to the 1960s, including work on paper, ceramics and early digital art. Barbara Nessim, Beret of Tongues, 2020, oil on canvas Born in the Bronx in 1939, Barbara Nessim’s career as a fine artist, a commercial illustrator and a pioneering digital artist spans five decades. Nessim learned textile design at a young age from her mother, a fashion designer in the Manhattan garment industry. In the early 1960s, Nessim was able to fund her own education at the Pratt Institute by working on the side as a fashion and textile designer. She credits her early experience working as fashion designer as a key influence in the development of her general aesthetic sensibility - yielding a “sense of economy” in her forms and an abiding interest in the infinite potential of simple, flowing lines. Clothing and shoes have also remained key subjects throughout Nessim’s career, particularly as they serve as indices for cultural, gender and sexual identity. Following graduation from Pratt in 1960, Nessim embarked on the artistic project that she has pursued without interruption for over 50 years: the daily sketchbooks which she considers her “forever books.” Aside from a number of volumes lost in a fire in 1974, Nessim’s sketchbooks remain a precise daily record of both her own life and her artistic evolutions, which she views as parallel, inseparable progressions. -
