  • Monster Roster: Existentialist Art in Postwar Chicago Receives First Major Exhibition, at University of Chicago’S Smart Museum of Art, February 11 – June 12, 2016
    Contact C.J. Lind | 773.702.0176 | [email protected] For Immediate Release “One of the most important Midwestern contributions to the development of American art” MONSTER ROSTER: EXISTENTIALIST ART IN POSTWAR CHICAGO RECEIVES FIRST MAJOR EXHIBITION, AT UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO’S SMART MUSEUM OF ART, FEBRUARY 11 – JUNE 12, 2016 Related programming highlights include film screenings, monthly Family Day activities, and a Monster Mash Up expert panel discussion (January 11, 2016) The Smart Museum of Art at the University of Chicago, 5550 S. Greenwood Avenue, will mount Monster Roster: Existentialist Art in Postwar Chicago, the first-ever major exhibition to examine the history and impact of the Monster Roster, a group of postwar artists that established the first unique Chicago style, February 11–June 12, 2016. The exhibition is curated by John Corbett and Jim Dempsey, independent curators and gallery owners; Jessica Moss, Smart Museum Curator of Contemporary Art; and Richard A. Born, Smart Museum Senior Curator. Monster Roster officially opens with a free public reception, Wednesday, February 10, 7–9pm featuring an in-gallery performance by the Josh Berman Trio. The Monster Roster was a fiercely independent group of mid-century artists, spearheaded by Leon Golub (1922–2004), which created deeply psychological works drawing on classical mythology, ancient art, and a shared persistence in depicting the figure during a period in which abstraction held sway in international art circles. “The Monster Roster represents the first group of artists in Chicago to assert its own style and approach—one not derived from anywhwere else—and is one of the most important Midwestern contributions to the development of American art,” said co-curator John Corbett.

They are primary vehicles for public dialogue about emotional, intellectual and aesthetic values, providing a subjective platform for human connection in our global society. An International art fair plays an important role in the building and sharing of cultural values. It creates opportunities for global connections and highlights the diverse interests of artists, collectors, dealers, museums, scholars and the public. It is with great excitement and pride that I am presenting the 9th annual Toronto International Art Fair - Art Toronto 2008. With an impressive line up of national and international galleries alongside an exciting roster of cultural partners and participants, TIAF has become an important and vital event on the Canadian cultural calendar.

BRADY STUDIO Location: 625 Pennsylvania Avenue, N. W., Square 460, Lot 802 (original Eastern 22 ft. of Lot 5). w^e Present Owner: National Savings and Trust Co., trustee. Present Occupant: The Fraternal Order of Police Present Use: Private restaurant and bar. Si oni fie :ance: This small Italianate commercial building is a fine example of pre-Civil War commercial Washington architecture. This building served as one of the first photographic studios in the City of Washington, being put to that use in 1850. From 1358-1831, it housed the National Photographic Art Gallery and the studio of the world renowned photographer Mathew B. Brady. Brady is remembered for his photo- graphs of the Civil War and the many portraits he took of famous personages of that era. PART I. HISTORICAL INFORMATION A. Phyical History: 1. Date of erection: It is not possible to pinpoint the exact date of construction for this building. The Corporation of Washington Tax Books record a significant increase in value of improvements from $3,800.00 in 1854 to $7,500.00 in 1855. Prior to 1854 the value of im- provements remains relatively constant as far back as the' mid-1830's, when the Tax Books are too unclear to interpret accurately. Stylistically, the two street facades represent different eras.

  • Interview with Alex Kanevsky January 31, 2012 Neil Plotkin
    Interview with Alex Kanevsky January 31, 2012 Neil Plotkin Many readers are familiar with Alex Kanevsky’s work but perhaps not all of his details. The internet offers a great deal of information about Mr. Kanevsky but unfortunately much of it is, if not false, not exactly accurate either. I was recently fortunate enough to visit Mr. Kavnevsky in his studio and I got the sense from him that this situation didn’t bother him, and that perhaps he even found it amusing. I asked him about being from Lithuania and his studies there. I had assumed he was an ethnic Russian who grew up in Lithuania or was from near Kalingrad or something to that effect (This will probably only add to the general confusion about his background).
