A Conversation with Frederic Tuten and Steve Martin Modern Art in Los Angeles: A Conversation with Frederic Tuten and Steve Martin Tuesday, October 12, 2010 7:00 p.m. Harold M. Williams Auditorium The Getty Center Join novelist Frederic Tuten and actor and author Steve Martin as they discuss the interchange between contemporary art and fiction and how visual art influences their work. Andrew Perchuk, deputy director of the Getty Research Institute, will moderate the conversation. Frederic Tuten’s short stories, art, and film criticism have appeared in ArtForum, Arts Magazine, the New York Times, and many other prestigious publications. In addition, he has written about artists such as John Baldessari, Eric Fischl, Pierre Huyghe, R. B. Kitaj, Jeff Koons, David Salle, and his close friend Roy Lichtenstein, whose original art appears on the covers of several of Tuten’s novels, including his new book of short stories, Self-Portraits: Fictions (2010). Steve Martin began collecting art in 1968 with the purchase of a print by Ed Ruscha. Since then, his personal collection has grown considerably, focusing on contemporary American art. Martin joined the LACMA board of trustees in the late 1980s and is involved in art-based fundraising in Los Angeles. Martin’s forthcoming novel, An Object of Beauty, sheds light and humor on the art world in New York City. Admission to this event is free. To attend, please make a reservation by visiting www.getty.edu/research or by calling (310) 440-7300. Note, late arrivals will not be guaranteed seating. This event is part of Pacific Standard Time, a research initiative undertaken by the Getty Research Institute in collaboration with the Getty Foundation to document and preserve the history of postwar art in Southern California. This event is co-organized by ForYourArt. The Getty Research Institute is a program of the J. Paul Getty Trust. Other programs of the Trust include the J. Paul Getty Museum, the Getty Conservation Institute, and the Getty Foundation. Upper image: Frederic Tuten, Self Portraits: Fictions (2010). Cover art courtesy the Estate of Roy Lichtenstein.

  • DISTURBING INNOCENCE Curated by Eric Fischl
    PRESS CONTACT: Maureen Sullivan Red Art Projects, 917.846.4477 [email protected] DISTURBING INNOCENCE Curated by Eric Fischl Exhibition Dates: October 25, 2014 – January 31, 2015 Opening Reception: Saturday, October 25th, 6-8pm Inez van Lamsweerde &Vinoodh Matadin. Kirsten, Star, 1997. © Inez & Vinoodh / Courtesy Gagosian Gallery The FLAG Art Foundation is pleased to present Disturbing Innocence, a group exhibition curated by artist Eric Fischl, on view on FLAG’s 9th floor from October 25, 2014 – January 31, 2015. Disturbing Innocence features over 50 historical and contemporary artists whose use of dolls, toys, mannequins, robots, and other surrogates forms a deep and powerfully expressive genre. The exhibition poses profound questions surrounding social constructs of youth, beauty, transformation, violence, sexuality, gender, identity, and loneliness. Inspired by Fischl’s own childhood in suburban Long Island, NY, and his early career as an artist working in New York City in the 1980’s, Disturbing Innocence presents a subversive and escapist world at odds with the values and pretensions of polite society.

    Issue 04 FREE Art, Objects, Ideas & People. #04 reflektorart.com 1 71 Frederic Tuten You said the other day, apart from the fact we are all under the threat of death, that you’ve been working well and are happy to work. Ross Bleckner Yes. FT Life hasn’t changed for you; basically you stay home, you work, go for a walk… RB I think artists and writers have been practicing self-quarantining on some level for their entire lives. Sometimes, we have to do our work in solitude, regardless of what else is going on. That’s how you really move forward. I feel a little bit ashamed and embarrassed to say how much I’ve enjoyed this time. But for me its been a kind of psychic healing, a productive time because I’m treating it like I’ve always wanted to treat myself, which is to be able to say no to social events that bore me to death. [Laughter]. I love the quiet of a Zen monastery, and this time has made me feel like I am living in between an artist residency and a monastery. As I said, the social aspect is mostly missing. I haven’t been off of my property in about two months, and my studio and my house FT back to something else? are attached to each other, so my routine stays basically the same every day. I work RB I love your stories, Frederic. out, I come to my studio, I work all day until FT Well, one day Larry called me.
