Lê Monuments and Memorials New Photo-weavings Lonnie Holley The Influence of Images New Works on Paper ____________________________ For the next Print Wall, Elizabeth Leach Gallery is pleased to highlight Jacob Hashimoto’s prints from the series titled The Necessary Invention of the Mind. The multilayered color works on paper combine relief and silkscreen and will be on view in the gallery and online to celebrate Hashimoto's recent large scale installation at the Portland International Airport. The prints feature Hashimoto’s signature kite imagery in dynamic compositions that reference virtual space, natural environments and cosmology. In 2020, the artist created two large site specific installations for the Portland International Airport titled The City and The Sky. “PDX is an iconic space in my mind. It was the big city to me when I was a kid, and the opportunity to come make artwork in collaboration with PDX was really inspiring,” said Hashimoto. “I am interested in how I can design artwork that is a pleasure to discover as you travel through it visually.” Jacob Hashimoto’s art practice bridges sculpture, painting, and installation through entrancing and complex installations that shift perceptions of light, space, and motion. In the recent print series on view, Hashimoto combines different printmaking mediums and techniques to enliven his visual experimentations. Repeating hexagonal structures, kaleidoscopic patterns, undulating organic forms and energetically entangled lines continuously activate the eye and invite the viewer into the artist’s fantastically imaginative floating worlds. Jacob Hashimoto was born in Greeley, Colorado in 1973 and grew up in Walla Walla, WA. He is a graduate of The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, IL, and lives and works in Ossining, NY. Hashimoto has been featured in museum exhibitions at MOCA Pacific Design Center, Los Angeles, CA; Museum of Contemporary Art in Rome and Fondazione Querini Stampalia in Venice, Italy; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, CA; Wäinö Aaltonen Museum of Art, Finland; Galleria d’Arte Moderna, Italy; Site Santa Fe, NM; and Science Museum of Oklahoma, OK. He has also had solo shows at Mary Boone Gallery in New York, NY; Rhona Hofman Gallery in Chicago, IL; Studio la Città, Verona, Italy; Galerie Forsblom in Helsinki, Finland; and Anglim Gilbert Gallery, San Francisco, CA, among others. His work is in the collections of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, CA; Saastamoinen Foundation, Finland; Schauwerk Sindelfingen, Germany; The Microsoft Art Collection, Redmond, WA; Capital One Collection, Tysons, VA; Fondation Carmignac, Paris, France; and numerous other public and private collections. Our current exhibitions on view through September include Dinh Q. Lê’s Monuments and Memorials, a new series of large-scale photo weavings that reflect on collective memory and architectural commemoration. Lê’s evocative photographic artworks combine interior and exterior pictures of Cambodian sites and pair the seemingly unresolvable, competing narratives of a country’s past and present. Interlaced vertical and horizontal strips of documentary photographs juxtapose grandiose ancient Angkor temples with sparse interior rooms of the Tuol Sleng Museum and other memorial locations marred by the violence inflicted by the Khmer Rouge regime (1975-1979). Warm, golden-hued pictorial tapestries belie the painful legacy of the empty torture rooms. The weaving process of the artist’s photographic constructions physically intertwine narratives to reiterate the dichotomous nature of cultural memory. Dinh Q. Lê creates conceptually based multimedia work that reflects on the complex history of Vietnam, issues of war, displaced populations and how non-western cultures are depicted in western media. Exhibiting internationally for 25 years, Lê’s solo exhibition, The Journey is Return, was on view at the San Jose Museum of Art (San Jose, CA) in 2018-19. The Mori Art Museum (Tokyo, Japan) presented a retrospective of his work in 2015. Lê’s work was shown in the 2013 Carnegie International (Pittsburgh, PA), dOCUMENTA (13) (Kassel, Germany), Singapore Art Museum (Singapore), Kiev Biennial (Kiev, Ukraine), a Projects 93 exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art (New York, NY) and a critically acclaimed one-person exhibition at the Asia Society in New York. Lê’s work is included in numerous permanent collections, including the Museum of Modern Art, Ford Foundation (New York, NY), Portland Art Museum (Portland, OR), San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (San Francisco, CA), Queensland Gallery of Modern Art (Brisbane, Australia) and the Zabludowicz Collection (London, England). Also on view are Lonnie Holley’s atmospheric, dream-like painted works on paper that feature repeated, overlapping silhouettes and three-dimensional effects. Titled The Influence of Images, this new series of paintings were created during Holley’s artist-in-residency at the Elaine de Kooning House in East Hampton, NY in 2020. During his time there he made artworks layered with spray paint and acrylic, adding an immediacy to the imagery. Nested shapes appear to radiate and float in the cosmos amid a softly diffused palette of grays, pinks, blues, and yellows that emphasize their transformative, mystical quality. Lonnie Holley is a sculptor, painter and musician who has been making multimedia artworks since the 1980s. His improvisational studio process incorporates found objects including natural elements and repurposed materials to create figurative and abstract imagery that commemorate places, people, and events. In 2021, Holley has solo exhibitions currently on view at the South Etna Montauk Foundation (Montauk, NY) and the Parrish Art Museum (Water Mill, NY). His work is also included in the group exhibition From The Limitations of Now at the Philbrook Museum of Art, (Tulsa, OK). An 18-minute musical film about the artist’s relationship to freedom in America, I Snuck off the Slave Ship, co-directed with Cyrus Moussavi, was shown at Sundance in 2019. Holley’s work is included in numerous public collections including the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York, NY), American Folk Art Museum (New York, NY), Birmingham Museum of Art (Birmingham, AL), High Museum of Art (Atlanta, GA), Milwaukee Museum of Art (Milwaukee, WI), Museum of Fine Arts (Houston, TX), Philadelphia Museum of Art (Philadelphia, PA), Smithsonian American Art Museum (Washington, DC), among others. In 2006 Holley received the Joan Mitchell Fellowship. The artist lives and works in Atlanta, GA.

It came to itself and is for this moment without him or her, not brought about by him or her but is itself and in this sudden seeing of itself, we make the final choice. What if it has come to be without external to us and what we read it to be then and heighten it toward that reading? If we were to leave it alone at this point of itself, our eyes aging would no longer be able to see it.

  • 2017 Abstracts
    Abstracts for the Annual SECAC Meeting in Columbus, Ohio October 25th-28th, 2017 Conference Chair, Aaron Petten, Columbus College of Art & Design Emma Abercrombie, SCAD Savannah The Millennial and the Millennial Female: Amalia Ulman and ORLAN This paper focuses on Amalia Ulman’s digital performance Excellences and Perfections and places it within the theoretical framework of ORLAN’s surgical performance series The Reincarnation of Saint Orlan. Ulman’s performance occurred over a twenty-one week period on the artist’s Instagram page. She posted a total of 184 photographs over twenty-one weeks. When viewed in their entirety and in relation to one another, the photographs reveal a narrative that can be separated into three distinct episodes in which Ulman performs three different female Instagram archetypes through the use of selfies and common Instagram image tropes. This paper pushes beyond the casual connection that has been suggested, but not explored, by art historians between the two artists and takes the comparison to task. Issues of postmodern identity are explored as they relate to the Internet culture of the 1990s when ORLAN began her surgery series and within the digital landscape of the Web 2.0 age that Ulman works in, where Instagram is the site of her performance and the selfie is a medium of choice. Abercrombie situates Ulman’s “image-body” performance within the critical framework of feminist performance practice, using the postmodern performance of ORLAN as a point of departure. J. Bradley Adams, Berry College Controlled Nature Focused on gardens, Adams’s work takes a range of forms and operates on different scales.

  • Interpreting the Assemblages of Lonnie Holley Through His Performative Explanations
    INTERPRETING THE ASSEMBLAGES OF LONNIE HOLLEY THROUGH HIS PERFORMATIVE EXPLANATIONS Sarah M. Schultz A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of the Master of Arts in the Department of Art. Chapel Hill 2010 Approved by: Dr. John P. Bowles Dr. Bernard L. Herman Dr. Pika Ghosh Dr. Ross Barrett © 2010 Sarah M. Schultz ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT SARAH M. SCHULTZ: Interpreting the Assemblages of Lonnie Holley through his Performative Explanations (Under the direction of Dr. John P. Bowles) For the past three decades, Lonnie Holley has collected materials alongside highways, ditches and in the landfills near his home in Birmingham, Alabama. These objects are used as the raw material for his assemblages. His artistic combinations suggest new relationships between once familiar, now obsolete technologies such as old television sets, computer screens, electrical wiring, barbed wire fencing, rebar, and molded concrete. Interpretations of his work rarely go beyond recounting his extraordinary personal narrative as the seventh of twenty-seven children. This comes at the expense of an in-depth critical analysis of his material and the new relationships he creates in his assemblages. Through a critical analysis of three of his major works, The Inner Suffering of the Holy Cost, Little Top to the Big Top, and Cold Titty Mama I, this study explores how his materials are re-valued, or given new meaning when they are combined. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis has benefitted from a wealth of perspectives. I am especially thankful for the patience of my advisors Dr.

Returning to Paris in late 1859, he began conceiving the painting Alexandre et Bucéphale (Alexander and Bucephalus) (1861–62), which depicts an episode from Plutarch’s Lives. Étude pour “Alexandre et Bucéphale” (Study for “Alexander and Bucephalus”) consists of three separate studies for the central figure of Alexandre. It was the artist’s practice to assemble a composition piece by piece, often appearing to put greater effort into the details of a single figure than he did composing the work as a whole.

  • American Women in Florence Collector Christian Levett Has Illed His Italian Palazzo with a World- Class Assembly of Works by Female Abstract Expressionists
    LIFE & ARTS | IDEAS | ICONS American Women in Florence Collector Christian Levett has illed his Italian palazzo with a world- class assembly of works by female Abstract Expressionists. Joan Mitchell’s ‘When They Were Gone’ (1977) is among the works in Christian Levett’s collection of art by female Abstract Expressionists. PHOTO: COLLECTION OF CHRISTIAN LEVETT By John Hooper Jan. 22, 2021 155 pm ET Spread over two floors of a palazzo beside the River Arno in Florence, amid the treasures of the Italian Renaissance, is perhaps the world’s largest private collection of art by modern female abstractionists. Walking down the street you would never know it was there. Even if you knew the name of the collector, former hedge-fund manager Christian Levett, you would have to squint long and hard to find it in the cluster of little brass name plates alongside the palazzo’s massive door. But once across the threshold you are surrounded by paintings by Lee Krasner, Elaine de Kooning, Helen Frankenthaler, Grace Hartigan, Joan Mitchell and other Abstract Expressionists who helped revolutionize art after World War II, turning New York City into the capital of Western culture for the first time. “There might be someone out there who has 10 Joan Mitchells, say. But in terms of breadth—and depth—I think this collection is unrivaled,” says Mr. Levett. It comprises 80 pictures, including 10 Elaine de Koonings and what is arguably Krasner’s most important work, the 1956 painting “Prophecy.” Elsewhere in the apartment are sculptures by Louise Bourgeois, works by Bridget Riley and tapestries by Tracey Emin.

  • Sedrick Huckaby Was Born in 1975 in Fort Worth, Texas. He Earned a BFA at Boston University in 1997 and an MFA at Yale University in 1999
    Philip Martin Gallery Sedrick Huckaby was born in 1975 in Fort Worth, Texas. He earned a BFA at Boston University in 1997 and an MFA at Yale University in 1999. Sedrick has earned many awards and honors for his art including a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2008 and a Joan Mitchell Grant in 2004. He is an associate professor of painting at the University of Texas at Arlington and his work is represented by Valley House Gallery in Dallas, Texas. As a kid, Sedrick loved reruns of the seventies TV show Good Times. We both did. We were both inspired by the artiste character — J.J. Walker — and especially Ernie Barnes who was the real painter behind the best paintings seen on that show. Ernie Barnes was famous as a painter and an athlete. He played professional football from 1959 to 1965. In high school, Sedrick was a competitive athlete too and fencing was his sport of choice. In my mind, this connects Sedrick to Caravaggio who was also good with a sword. Unlike Caravaggio and more like Ernie Barnes — Sedrick is levelheaded and loves people but I’ve always felt that I can see the swordsman in Sedrick’s paint handling. Sedrick is a devoted father of three and husband to Letitia Huckaby who is also a visual artist. They live in Fort Worth, Texas, not too far from the Highland Hills neighborhood where he grew up. His parents and extended family all live in Fort Worth too. Family and community are important to Sedrick. 2712 S. La Cienega Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90034 philipmartingallery.com (310) 559-0100 Philip Martin Gallery In early 2018 Sedrick spent time as artist in residence at a hospital in Philadelphia, PA where he made drawings of patients and doctors while listening to them tell their stories.

Women Artists in the Collection This special exhibition of the permanent collection focuses exclusively on the contributions of American women artists. The fact of women's historical exclusion from the art world is part of the exploration, "Why have there been no great women artists?"-art historian Linda Nochlin famously asked in a 1971 essay. Her findings pointed to the past exclusion of women from working with male nude models, hence apprenticeships, then professions and academies, to which we add commercial gallery exhibitions, art criticism, and art history. Over the centuries this vicious cycle has shaped the current phenomenon: the predominance of male artists in museum collections .

"Ashe," an African word meaning "the power to make things happen," was used as the theme of the exhibition. The guide verbalizes the exhibit's investigation of the methods of making art and the motives of the makers by exploring the choice of materials (recycled objects) and the modes of creation (improvisational). Chapter one is entitled "Sorting Out a Context for Self-taught Art." The critique also examines the works' intellectual lineage traced from African spiritualism.
