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.

  • The Self-Organization of Contemporary Art in China, 2001–2012
    Bao Dong Rethinking Practices within the Art System: The Self-Organization of Contemporary Art in China, 2001–2012 The Origin of the Term “Self-Organization” in China The term “self-organization” was first used in the context of contemporary Chinese art in 2005 at the Second Guangzhou Triennial curated by Hou Hanru, Hans Ulrich Obrist, and Guo Xiaoyan. Self-organization was one of the special projects of the triennial, and there were two panel discussions on the topic. The exhibition theme “Beyond” focused on the topic of alternative modernity in China and non-Western countries, and the term self-organization was defined by the following statements: “A number of independent art organizations, institutions, and communities have taken an active role in artistic creation and practice” and “their projects are often diverse, flexible” and “self-induced in nature.”1 Altogether, twenty-four self- organized groups2 were included in this project, and for the curators, the concept of “self-organization” was used to differentiate independent and autonomous organizations from those attached to government systems or political parties. This feature is also the fundamental difference between the various artist-run autonomous organizations and the organizations within the conventional art system as constituted by Chinese Artists Association, along with the various academies of painting, art institutes, museums, and so on. In other words, self-organization is considered a force operating outside of the conventional art system, just as the inception, growth, and flourishing of contemporary Chinese art is believed to have been achieved outside of official systems. In terms of any independence from the conventional art system, self- organization is not a new phenomenon in the contemporary Chinese art scene.

In the past eight years he has worked at several different contemporary art museums, including the Guangdong Art Museum, Ullens Center for Contemporary Art and Iberia Center for Contemporary Art. At these leading art institutions, he explored the nature and ontology of the ‘moving image’ in its various forms – video art, new media art, video and film installations – pushing the boundaries of the various forms and decon- structing the moving image culture. Currently, Dong is the artistic director at the Li Xianting Film Fund, where he has implemented an intensive exploration into artists’ films shown in gallery spaces, or what has been recently referred to as ‘cinema of exhibition.’ China’s iGeneration co-editor Tianqi Yu interviewed Dong Bingfeng on the emerging field of ‘cinema of exhibition,’ and in the interview Dong shares some of his views on cinema and moving image culture, particularly among China’s current iGeneration.

  • Vintage Posters
    IN OUR TIME So far 2013 has been an exciting year at Swann. In January, a sale of illustration art and illustrated books established what will be a new department for us, while our reinstated Old Master Drawings auction drew crowds and much interest for a newly discovered J.M.W. Turner watercolor. February saw our best winter Vintage Posters auction ever, setting records for images by Art Nouveau master Alphonse Mucha, and love was in the air at our Valentine’s Day auction of African-American Fine Art, where paintings by Barkley L. Hendricks and Hughie Lee-Smith, as well as a sculpture by Elizabeth Catlett, achieved top-dollar results. We wrapped up the month with Fine Photographs, featuring early Asian travel albums and avant-garde modernist images, followed by scarce Early Printed Books. American and European artists divided the top lots at our March 7 Prints & Drawings auction, and the word of the day at our Writing Instruments sale was Montblanc, Montblanc, Montblanc. Looking ahead, May is a busy month full of intriguing offerings, including graphic design and typography from the inventory of the late Irving Oaklander, noted bookseller, followed by more scintillating design, typography and graphic art in our sale of modernist posters. Our Contemporary Art sale coincides with Frieze week in New York, and the month concludes with a diverse auction of Autographs. In early June a sale of Maps & Atlases offers rare items of American interest, and mid-month American Art features paintings and drawings by artists including Milton Avery, Robert Gwathmey and John Singer Sargent.
