    Betty Parsons Sky Heated Betty Parsons: Heated Sky Alexander Gray Associates Betty Parsons: Heated Sky February 26 – April 4, 2020 Alexander Gray Associates Betty Parsons in her Southold, Long Island, NY studio, Spring 1980 2 3 Betty Parsons in her Southold, Long Island, NY studio, 1971 5 Introduction By Rachel Vorsanger Collection and Research Manager Betty Parsons and William P. Rayner Foundation Betty Parsons’ boundless energy manifested itself not only in her various forms of artistic expression—paintings of all sizes, travel journals, and her eponymous gallery— but in her generosity of spirit. Nearly four decades after Parsons’ death, her family, friends, and former colleagues reinforce this character trait in conversations and interviews I have conducted, in order to better understand the spirit behind her vibrant and impassioned works. Betty, as I have been told was her preferred way to be addressed, was a woman of many actions despite her reticent nature. She took younger family members under her wing, introducing them to major players in New York’s mid-century art world and showing them the merits of a career in the arts. As a colleague and mentor, she encouraged the artistic practice of gallery assistants and interns. As a friend, she was a constant source of inspiration, often appearing as the subject of portraits and photographs. Perhaps her most deliberate act of generosity was the one that would extend beyond her lifetime. As part of her will, she established the Betty Parsons Foundation in order to support emerging artists from all backgrounds, and to support ocean life. After her nephew Billy Rayner’s death in 2018, the Foundation was further bolstered to advance her mission.

  • Paul Feeley: Space Stands Still
    Press Release Paul Feeley: Space Stands Still 12 April – 6 June 2021 Waddington Custot is pleased to present Paul Feeley: Space Stands Still, the first solo exhibition of Feeley’s work in the UK for over 50 years. The exhibition shines a light on this significant but relatively overlooked artist who worked with Clement Greenberg and played a pivotal role in the careers of many seminal abstract artists, including Helen Frankenthaler. This exhibition charts the development of Feeley’s abstraction over the course of his brief but prolific career, presenting pieces from the 1950s through to those created just before his untimely death in 1966 at the age of 55. Over 20 works by Feeley, including oil on canvas paintings and three-dimensional sculptures in wood, are shown in the UK for the first time. The works are characterised by Feeley’s distinctive approach to symmetry and pattern through curving shapes in vibrant colours. The central forms and repeated motifs, often in symmetrical clusters, are reminiscent of vertebrae and teeth, molecular structures or jacks. Although often associated with Abstract Expressionism, Feeley broke with the movement in the 1940s. Speaking to Lawrence Alloway in 1964, the artist explained ‘I began to dwell on pyramids and things like that instead of on jungles of movement and action… The things I couldn’t forget in art, were things, which made no attempt to be exciting.’ And so Feeley’s work moved away from gestural abstraction and into ‘a quiescent art of stability, poise, and space’, as described by Douglas Dreishpoon in Imperfections by Chance (his 2015 essay on Feeley).

  • Kenneth Noland: Paintings, 1958-1968 Mitchell-Innes & Nash
    Kenneth Noland: Paintings, 1958-1968 Mitchell-Innes & Nash Chelsea March 17 – April 30, 2011 For Immediate Release: New York, February 2, 2011 - Mitchell-Innes & Nash is pleased to announce its first solo exhibition of paintings by Kenneth Noland, on view in the Chelsea gallery from March 17 - April 30. The exhibition, “Kenneth Noland: Paintings, 1958-1968,” will feature major paintings dating from the artist’s first decade of mature work. It will include significant early examples of the circle, stripe and chevron compositions that would become Noland’s signature forms throughout his career. The exhibition will be accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue with an essay by art historian Paul Hayes Tucker. Kenneth Noland (1924-2010) is among the most influential Post- War abstract artists and one of the central figures of Color Field painting. His unprimed canvases with geometric forms painted in thin washes of pure, saturated color forged a new direction in abstract art. The artist’s stated aim was to explore "the infinite range and expressive possibilities of color." Later referred to in the New York Times as “paradigms of American plain statement,” these spare, reductive works were seen as bold departures from Abstract Expressionism and as ‘minimalist’ painting. This exhibition and extensive catalogue will present new insight into the artist’s life, his influences, and the impact American popular culture had on his art and vice-versa. In the late 1950s and early 1960s Noland began working with two motifs, the circle and the chevron, which would have lasting importance in his work. These seemingly simple forms resonated deeply within Noland’s history, calling to mind badges on military uniforms from his army days, logos for cars and other consumer products ubiquitous in the post-war economy, and even the theories of Wilhelm Reich whose writings Noland encountered in the 50s.

  • LAWRENCE ALLOWAY Pedagogy, Practice, and the Recognition of Audience, 1948-1959
    LAWRENCE ALLOWAY Pedagogy, Practice, and the Recognition of Audience, 1948-1959 In the annals of art history, and within canonical accounts of the Independent Group (IG), Lawrence Alloway's importance as a writer and art critic is generally attributed to two achievements: his role in identifying the emergence of pop art and his conceptualization of and advocacy for cultural pluralism under the banner of a "popular-art-fine-art continuum:' While the phrase "cultural continuum" first appeared in print in 1955 in an article by Alloway's close friend and collaborator the artist John McHale, Alloway himself had introduced it the year before during a lecture called "The Human Image" in one of the IG's sessions titled ''.Aesthetic Problems of Contemporary Art:' 1 Using Francis Bacon's synthesis of imagery from both fine art and pop art (by which Alloway meant popular culture) sources as evidence that a "fine art-popular art continuum now eXists;' Alloway continued to develop and refine his thinking about the nature and condition of this continuum in three subsequent teXts: "The Arts and the Mass Media" (1958), "The Long Front of Culture" (1959), and "Notes on Abstract Art and the Mass Media" (1960). In 1957, in a professionally early and strikingly confident account of his own aesthetic interests and motivations, Alloway highlighted two particular factors that led to the overlapping of his "consumption of popular art (industrialized, mass produced)" with his "consumption of fine art (unique, luXurious):' 3 First, for people of his generation who grew up interested in the visual arts, popular forms of mass media (newspapers, magazines, cinema, television) were part of everyday living rather than something eXceptional.

  • Inside an Unquiet Mind Essays on the Critic and Curator Lawrence Alloway Give a Minor Figure Too Much Credit by Pac Pobric | 19 June 2015 | the Art Newspaper
    Inside an unquiet mind Essays on the critic and curator Lawrence Alloway give a minor figure too much credit by Pac Pobric | 19 June 2015 | The Art Newspaper Lawrence Alloway, then a curator at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, speaks at Oberlin College, Ohio, in 1965. Courtesy: Getty Research Institute, Los Angeles. Of all the minor figures in the history of art criticism, perhaps none is as deserving of his footnote in the annals as the British writer and curator Lawrence Alloway (1926-90). Although he is best known for supposedly coining the term “Pop art” (in fact, no one knows where the phrase originated), Alloway is more important for the small role he played in ushering in the criticism that plagues us today: the type so obsessed with the noise of the art world that it forgets the work entirely. In Alloway’s mind, works of art were “historical documents”, as he put it in 1964— relics, that is, to be unearthed and decoded by the critic as anthropologist. As the art historian Jennifer Mundy explains in an essay in Lawrence Alloway: Critic and Curator, which looks at his work in comprehensive detail, he called for “a criticism that provided objective descriptions of works and forensic analyses of cultural contexts”. For Alloway, art was an indicator of a system. Beyond that, it was irrelevant. Today, it is Alloway who is irrelevant, and the nine art historians who have contributed to this book (edited by Lucy Bradnock, Courtney Martin and Rebecca Peabody) are far too generous to a man whose ideas were largely stillborn.

  • Lawrence Alloway's Spatial Utopia: Contemporary Photography As 'Horizontal Description'
    Tate Papers Issue 16 Autumn 2011 ISSN 1753-9854 TATE’S ONLINE RESEARCH JOURNAL Lawrence Alloway’s Spatial Utopia: Contemporary Photography as ‘Horizontal Description’ SHELLEY RICE ‘Acknowledgement is no longer sought in time, but in space: Globalization has replaced the future as the site of Utopia .’ Boris Groys 1 ‘Can the art of the twentieth century usefully be treated geographically?’ Lawrence Alloway asked in a little-known article entitled ‘Whatever Happened to the Frontier?’ originally published in the Minneapolis Institute of Arts Bulletin .2 ‘When town mouse and country mouse receive day to day, month to month information at the same rate, it is impossible to maintain the former etiquette of priority – center and periphery lose their distinctive character’. This may sound like the words of someone writing about the ‘postcolonial constellation’ (a term coined by the curator and writer Okwui Enwezor in 2003 to describe how racial and national identities have diversified in the era of globalisation), 3 but the essay was in fact published in 1963, and focused on one of Alloway’s favourite ideas: the mobility of art. For Alloway, the mobility of art was not only spatial; it was temporal and social as well. It was about an object’s or image’s ability to move through time and space whether literally or virtually, to reconstitute its meanings within different cultural environments and with people of diverse backgrounds. Cultural difference, however, was less intensely interesting to him than the potential of myriad cultural interfaces.

  • Sylvia Sleigh Biografia
    Sylvia Sleigh. Biography Born in the Victorian sea-side resort of Llandudno, Wales in 1916, Sylvia Sleigh grew up in England during the grim years of the two world wars and the ensuing rationing of food, clothes and culture. She studied in the Brighton School of Art in Sussex, England, between 1934 and 1937. Here she remembers being outraged by the double standards that allowed female nudes but not male ones in the life drawing classes. In 1941 she married Michael Greenwood, a local painter and art history lecturer, and friend of British Pop artist Richard Hamilton. They moved to London, and remained together for thirteen years. However, during this time they often lived apart – Sleigh in the village of Pett, Sussex, and Greenwood in London. Her relationship with Greenwood and the proximity to the art world encouraged Sleigh to pursue painting professionally; yet it was her husband’s active undermining of her confidence as a painter, which brought it to an abrupt end. Sleigh stopped painting and became a seamstress and dressmaker, eventually opening her own shop in Brighton. Her love of fashion, textiles and patterning remained thereon - indeed, she kept many of the dresses made during her entire life-time. It was only when the relationship with her husband became estranged that Sleigh re- initiated her artistic practice, attending art history night-classes at the University of London. It was here, in 1944, when Sleigh was twenty-seven, that she met critic Lawrence Alloway, seventeen at the time. This encounter marked the beginning of an intense relationship, both intellectual and emotional.
