Phong Bui (Rail): Having read the whole volume of writing and seen the show, I was struck by his incredibly astute observations which seemed to me must have derived from the capacity for self- criticism and self-analysis, and which gave him a sense of deliberate eloquence in his continuity as a painter and thinker. There are two things I remember reading from the book which really stayed with me: one is the first sentence from the journal entry, which he started right after the war, 1947, the same year as his first one-man show at Charles Egan Gallery, “Style is the effect of pressure. […] In the artist, the origin of pressure is in his total life—heredity, experience, and will […]—but the direction flows according to the freedom he allows his creative impulse.” Two is the long article “Notes on My Painting,” which was published in Art in America in 1973 under the invitation of Brian O’Doherty, where in the end he says, “Above all

    The Museum of Modern Art

    The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release March 1987 DRAWINGS ACQUISITIONS Through May 26, 1987 A new installation at The Museum of Modern Art features seventy-one works on paper acquired since 1981. During this period, 554 works by 217 artists entered the collection. Organized by John Elderfield, director of the Department of Drawings, the current installation reveals the rich growth of the collection over the past six years. Among the highlights of early modern drawings in the installation are Piet Mondrian's Amstel River (1907), a large, dramatic, preabstract work that combines a Symbolist mood with an already strong sense of geometric structure, and Giorgio de Chirico's Solitude (1917), widely considered to be probably the greatest of his metaphysical drawings. Three recently acquired works on paper by Pablo Picasso include the monumental Two Nudes (1906), a study for the Museum's painting of that subject; the rigorously abstract, Cubist Guitar (1912); and the beautiful pastel, Woman in a Flowered Hat (1921). Other major Cubist works include Fernand Leger's Contrast of Forms (1912) and Juan Gris's collage, Glass and Bottle (1913), and two drawings by sculptor Julio Gonzalez. The Museum's representation of Futurism has been enhanced by the addition of Carlo Carra's charcoal drawing, Cafe Chantant (1912), and works by Giacomo Balla and F.T. Marinetti (the latter represented in the collection for the first time). Early British modernism is exemplified by David Bomberg's early abstraction, study for In the Hold (1913), and works by William Roberts and C.R.W. Nevinson (first time representation).

Banisadr left Iran at the tail end of the Iran-Iraq war in 1988, moving first to Turkey, then to the U.S. where he participated in the Mission School of graffiti in San Francisco, and attended SVA (School of Visual Arts) for his BFA, before earning an MFA from New York Academy of Art while also performing as a DJ in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Above all else, Banisadr is a devoted student of art history and the culture of painting specifically.

    Sikkema Jenkins & Co. is pleased to present As I Went Walking, an exhibition of recent paintings and works on paper by Josephine Halvorson. On view from October 19 through November 22, the exhibition is Halvorson’s fourth solo show with the gallery. A catalog accompanies the exhibition with an essay by Erin Yerby. As I Went Walking includes a series of life-sized oil paintings made in the western Massachusetts town where Halvorson lives and votes. The exhibition’s title is borrowed from the first line of a missing stanza from Woody Guthrie’s anthem, This Land Is Your Land, rediscovered in the 1990s. As I went walking I saw a sign there / And on the sign it said "No Trespassing." / But on the other side it didn't say nothing, / That side was made for you and me. The lyrics echo Halvorson’s artistic practice and subject matter. Wandering the woods near her home, she encounters signs of neighbors, dead and alive. Naturalized marks of ownership animate and declare themselves. Wherever one’s eyes land, there are human claims and natural reclamations. Halvorson makes paintings from direct observation, en plein air. She finds herself working at the limits of private and public property. The feet of the easel, the table and the artist trespass and straddle invisible boundaries. A day’s work leaves its physical imprint in the tamped-down ground. But the painting itself, in its portability and self-contained rectangle, leaves the site of its making without a trace. Once removed from its original context, the painting metaphorically extends the boundary line.
