The foundation of Mark’s lifetime of working in wood was his relation- ship with his father Mel, so this year’s award is further acknowledgment of Mel Lindquist’s impact on the field. Mel was the fifth person to be given a Lifetime Membership award (1994). From his earliest years, Mark absorbed his father’s know-how in metal technology, machining, and woodcraft. In later years, the power- ful combination of these skills would be his mainstay. More important, he soaked up his father’s sense of curios- ity and willingness to try new ideas. Mel once said, “When Mark was two he was already quite interested in woodturning, so I’d sit him downstairs it forged his personality in a unique in my wood shop and he’d watch me.” way.

In 1972, visitors and exhibitors at the prestigious craft show in Rhinebeck, New York, were astounded by the Lindquists’ offer- ings. Their nonfunctional vessels made from wood with arrested decay, holes, and bark inclusions created controversy. Some even asked if they were seconds. However, in the newly liberated atmosphere of the time when the object was seen as more important than the rules of David Ellsworth (left) and Mark Lindquist (right) during Mark’s demonstration at the craftsmanship, others were drawn “Woodturning Vision and Concept” conference, Arrowmont School, 1986. to this idea.

    2011 Annual Report Dear Members and Friends, Fiscal Year 2011 (July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011) was one of experimentation and outreach and one of celebrating accomplished artists living and working in the region. The curatorial and public programs staff jointly experimented with a new concept for an exhibition addressing the theme of how museums collect, care for, interpret, exhibit and transport art in The Secret Life of Art: Mysteries of the Museum Revealed. In planning for the exhibition, the staff reached out with an online survey asking the public what they might like to learn about museum operations. Responses from 450 individuals helped determine the content of the exhibition, related programs and the newly-launched blog. The installation of the exhibition experimented with some new interpretive techniques: videos on the design process of the Zimmerman House and on the preparation of Jan Gossaert’s Portrait of a Man for shipment to the Metropolitan Museum of Art; the display of materials used to pack paintings in crates; and the exhibition of the reverse of Georgia O’Keeffe’s A Cross by the Sea, 1925, to show the array of labels that document the painting’s history since it was first shown at Alfred Stieglitz’ gallery, An American Place, in New York City. Throughout the year we celebrated innovative artists from New IMAGES England with solo exhibitions. During the summer we featured COVER: Jon Brooks talks to Anne Milne, the kinetic sculpture of George Sherwood, a Massachusetts Trustee Emerita, at the opening of his first retrospective exhibition Jon Brooks: artist, whose Fusion II now animates the Zachos Court in front A Collaboration with Nature.

    Mark Lindquist: Revolutions in Wood. Seattle: University of Washington Press, 1995; pp. 9-23. Text © Robert Hobbs Mark Lindquist: Revolutions in Wood ROBERT HOBBS To a casual observer Mark Lindquist might at first appear to be an epigone of rhe American woodturning movement's first generation, which was led in the 1950s and 1960s by his father Melvin Lindquist who initiated the use of spa! ted wood, Rude Osolnik who rethought and reinvigorated Southern folk traditions of production woodturning, Bob Stocksdale who delighted in examining the inherent properties of various exotic materials, and Ed Moulthrop who originated ways to turn monumental vessels and envelop them in space-age plastics. However, Lindquist's contributions to this movement in terms of technical innovations and reconsideration of the vessel as a sculptural form rich in cultural and stylistic associations are so profound and far-reaching that rhey have reconstituted the field. Recalling his attitudes in Mark Lindquist, c. 1977 rhe late 1960s when he began, this remarkable innovator has said, "I did not then care for the rime-honored traditions of the craft, and I do nor now care about rhe taboos of rhe purisrs." 1 His generosity in disseminating his ideas and techniques among great numbers of woodrurners through carefully researched essays on his ground-breaking discoveries and his basic primer Sculpting Wood: Contempormy Tools and Techniques 2 has had the net result of making many of his pioneering fears regularly accepted practices. Some of his important technical innovations have received such a sweeping imprimatur from the modern srudio woodrurning movement that they need to be recalled in this study, together with their dares, in order to assess properly his lasting impact on this field.

  • CWA-2007 Interview-Long.Pages
    Interview of David Ellsworth, conducted by Connie Mississippi. Published in Collectors of Wood Art (CWA) Newsletter, August 2007. Mississippi: Please comment on your own craft collection; who’s in it and why? Ellsworth: I have an inherent love of objects that no doubt evolved through my upbringing in the southwest, most notably my exposure to the art and architecture of Native American cultures. I started acquiring work in the mid-1970’s when I first exhibited in the craft shows, and I probably now have three hundred pieces of contemporary craft made by eighty-plus artists, most of whom I know personally. This means that my family is surrounded by a lot of positive energy, and this supports my own attitude about my life as a maker in such a remarkably exciting period of creativity and growth within the crafted arts. Most of the pieces are turned objects, but many are in clay, glass and fiber, plus paintings and photography. In addition, through these objects my students have the benefit of learning about design, method, intent and the history of object development over the past forty years. My taste leans toward objects that are simple, yet powerful in design, objects that reflect an economy in their construction while incorporating an honest and direct use of material. I often consider Native American ceramics as a reference to a balance between function, design, decoration, and the simple, yet direct applications of process. Like ceramics, turning is basically a centering process. And when it comes to making the humble bowl form, the more we release the head and engage the heart, the more engaging the forms become.

"How does one adequately say thank you for more than half a life time of service and devotion to the cause of American crafts and crafts people.' ' 'Thirty years ago we met at the School for American Craftsmen, since that day my respect for you has grown a thousand fold. Each year brought new reasons as the various parts of ACC grew and came into being. Tou proved your ability for leadership, along with your dedication to the craft movement in never losing sight of your final goal — the establishment of the World Craft Council." "For a long time I have wanted to thank you for your sincere efforts in en- couraging crafts, from the early Putnam County projects and the America House of the40's — to the ripening and blooming of the American Craftsmen's Council. It has meant much to craftsmen throughout the years, and to those now — that we have a reestablished place in this country s society. "Not all craftsmen know you. Not all craftsmen have heard of you. But every craftsman in the world, from the most anonymous to the most arrogant, is in- debted to you. The ripples you started have spread and grown to waves.

  • Article About Mark Lindquist by Mark Hinson
    October 10, 2010 Mark Lindquist comes out of his wood work for a rare show Artist invents and re-invents, as interests take him from chain saws to Japanese art to photography By Mark Hinson DEMOCRAT SENIOR WRITER For an artist who carefully guards his privacy and avoids publicity, sculptor and wood-turner Mark Lindquist sure can draw a crowd. It's a muggy Friday night in mid-September and more than 400 people are crammed into the Gadsden Arts Center for the opening of a 40-year retrospective exhibition of Lindquist's art. The spacious, former hardware store on the courthouse square in downtown Quincy looks more like a loft in Soho in downtown Manhattan. Lindquist's abstract tree totems, deceptively complex wooden bowls, chainsaw- created "paintings" and digital photography command the gallery. Even though Lindquist has maintained a studio in an old tobacco warehouse north of Quincy for nearly 30 years, it's the first major show he has ever had in his adopted hometown. "I've been able to keep a low profile since moving here from New Hampshire — I keep my head down," Lindquist, 61, said as he smiled and surveyed the crowd. "People respect that. When I first got to Quincy, it looked like Key West with all the old cars in the square and the faded blues and lavenders on the buildings. I was taken by it. It was like a time warp. And it was just what I was looking for." When Lindquist travels away from North Florida, however, he's usually given the rock star treatment in art circles in New York, Baltimore, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C.
