    Oral History Interview with Viola Frey, 1995 Feb. 27-June 19

    Oral history interview with Viola Frey, 1995 Feb. 27-June 19 Funding for the digital preservation of this interview was provided by a grant from the Save America's Treasures Program of the National Park Service. Contact Information Reference Department Archives of American Art Smithsonian Institution Washington. D.C. 20560 www.aaa.si.edu/askus Transcript Preface The following oral history transcript is the result of a tape-recorded interview with Viola Frey on February 27, May 15 & June 19, 1995. The interview took place in oakland, CA, and was conducted by Paul Karlstrom for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. Interview Session 1, Tape 1, Side A (30-minute tape sides) PAUL KARLSTROM: Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. An interview with Viola Frey at her studio in Oakland, California, February 27, 1995. The interviewer for the Archives is Paul Karlstrom and this is what we hope will be the first in a series of conversations. It's 1:35 in the afternoon. Well, Viola, this is an interview that has waited, I think, about two or three years to happen. When I first visited you way back then I thought, "We really have to do an interview." And it just took me a while to get around to it. But at any rate what I would like to do is take a kind of journey back in time, back to the beginning, and see if we can't get some insight into, of course, who you are, but then where these wonderful works of art come from, perhaps what they mean.

    Selected Bibliography and Exhibition History

    6/6/11 n11 Karlstrom_bib.doc: 163 Selected Bibliography and Exhibition History The following selected bibliography and exhibition history have been compiled by Jeff Gunderson, longtime librarian at the San Francisco Art Institute, the intended repository for the Peter Selz library. Gunderson worked closely with the author of this book, along with Selz himself, in setting up the guidelines for inclusion. For a full bibliography of articles, essays, books, and catalogues by Peter Selz, as well as a complete list of exhibitions for which he was curator, see www.ucpress.edu/go/peterselz. The lists presented here demonstrate Selz’s wide range of interests and expertise, as well as his advocacy for fine artists and his belief that art can be a fitting vehicle for social and political commentary. For the two bibliographic sections, “Books and Catalogues” and “Journal Articles and Essays,” the selection of titles was made on the basis of their significance and the contribution that they represent. Although Selz has been involved in and responsible for numerous exhibition-related publications, the extent of his involvement in these catalogues has varied widely. Those listed here (and indicated by an asterisk) are for the projects in which he took the lead authorial role, whatever his position in conceiving or producing the accompanying exhibition. Selz wrote a great number of magazine articles and reviews as well, many of them as West Coast correspondent for Art in America. With few exceptions, the regional exhibition reviews are not included. On the other hand, independent articles that represent the development and application of his thinking about modernist art are cited.

    Spencer, Catherine. Coral and Lichen, Brains and Bowels- Jay

    Coral and Lichen, Brains and Bowels: Jay DeFeo’s Hybrid Abstraction By Catherine Spencer 13 May 2015 Tate Papers no.23 Situating the US artist Jay DeFeo within a network of West Coast practitioners during the 1950s and 1960s, this essay shows how her relief paintings – layered with organic, geological and bodily referents – constitute what can be understood as ‘hybrid abstraction’. This has affinities with ‘eccentric abstraction’ and ‘funk art’, but also resonates with the socio-political context of Cold War America. Jay DeFeo has been repeatedly characterised by critics, historians and fellow artists as ‘an independent visionary’, devoted to ‘“private” art’, who was ‘professionally reclusive’.1 As early as 1963 the critic John Coplans cast DeFeo, together with other American artists working on the West Coast, including her friend Wallace Berman, as ‘isolated visionaries’ cloistered ‘in complete retreat’.2 The tenacity of this myth stems partly from the work for which DeFeo has become most famous, and indeed infamous: she re-worked her gargantuan oil painting The Rose obsessively between 1958 and 1966, and the energy expended on it forced a four-year career break until 1970.3 The Rose, and by extension DeFeo, have been co-opted as ‘representative of Bay Area abstract painting in microcosm’, invoked as symptomatic of West Coast 1950s and 1960s artistic production, understood as a brief flare of creativity eclipsed by New York.4 DeFeo’s hiatus seems to bisect her output into two sections: the works made during the 1950s and early 1960s on the one side, and those from the 1970s and the 1980s on the other.5 Yet rather than being an isolated or disjointed practice, DeFeo’s work exhibits remarkable consistency and, moreover, an ability to combine multiple influences and ideas.

  • The Funk Art Movement & Beyond Craft

    The Funk Art Movement & Beyond Craft

    The Funk Art Movement & Beyond Craft: Decorative Arts from the Leatrice S. and Melvin B. Eagle Collection Submitted by Michelle Levi, Mint Museum Docent, 2014 The Funk art movement originated in Northern California. Many Funk artists were previously painters that were associated with the Bay Area Figurative Movement in the 1950s. The Beatnik culture with its alternative and underground lifestyle was the perfect environment surrounding artists associated with the California Funk style.1 The Funk art movement of the 1960s contrasted from the Beat funk art of the decade preceding it. Funk artists of the 1950s wanted to incorporate ideals from literature, philosophy as well as art and music. Later, in the 1960’s, Funk art evolved as a reaction to Abstract Expressionists.2 San Francisco in the 1960s was dominated by free thinking and anti-war youth activists. Funk artists of the 1960s influenced by the political activism and anti-establishment mentality of the Bay Area began creating work combining painting and sculpture. The movement’s name was borrowed from jazz; a musical term “funky” describing something as quirky or sensuous. 3 The word “funk” also had negative connotations as it refers to a foul odor. In 1967 Funk, the exhibition curated by Peter Selz at The University of California, Berkeley brought national recognition to the movement for the first time.4 The exhibition included ceramics as well as found object assemblages and featured the work of Arlo Acton, Bob Anderson, Jeremy Anderson, Robert Arneson, Mowry Baden, Jerrold Ballaine, Sue Bitney, Joan Brown, Bruce Conner, Roy De Forest, William Geis, David Gilhooly, Mel Henderson, Robert Hudson, Manuel Neri, Harold Paris, Don Potts, Kenneth Price, Peter Saul, Peter Voulkos, William T.

Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ********************************* All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Sonya Rapoport, dated October 26, 2007.
