  • Ulrich - Small Pleasures Website by Christian Taylor
    Ulrich - Small Pleasures Website by Christian Taylor PROJECT DESCRIPTION CALL FOR ENTRIES SELECTION PROCESS PROJECT DESCRIPTION: "Small Pleasures" is designed for the facade of the Ulrich Museum of Art (Wichita, KS) in place of Joan Miro's monumental mosaic Personnages Oiseaux. Miro’s mural is under restoration from 2012 through 2016, which is the duration of this project. The installation consists of a billboard-sized banner covering the facade, a small waterproof display case mounted in the middle of the banner, and two telescopes installed across the street for the viewing of miniature works displayed in the case. Bimonthly, a new item is featured in the 'mini gallery' selected from a pool of submissions. SELECTION PROCESS: Over the first two years of the project, each bi-monthly selection will be made by a new person (professional artist, art historian, critic, curator, etc). Each 'juror' will be responsible for designating the next. This curatorial approach is designed to be as open and democratic as possible while ensuring quality in the selection process. Featured items will be cataloged on this website along with brief statements from the jurors. Starting in 2015, the project's staff will be responsible for selecting items for display until the last exhibition in mid-2016. THE FOLLOWING IS A DIGITAL CATALOG OF EXHIBITIONS DEC 1, 2016 Mary M.

  • A New Approach to Joan Miró
    A NEW APPROACH TO JOAN MIRÓ NEW WORKS ON PAPER NEW DISPLAY OF THE PERMANENT COLLECTION A NEW APPROACH TO JOAN MIRÓ NEW WORKS ON PAPER NEW DISPLAY OF THE PERMANENT COLLECTION The Joan Miró Foundation is adding seventeen new original works on paper, loaned by the Miró family, to its permanent displays. With the assistance of the Catalan Government, it has also remodelled its Permanent Collection. The Miró Foundation opened its doors in 1975 as a centre for contemporary art where both experts and the general public could come into contact with Miró’s work through the pieces the artist, as well as his friends and relatives, donated to the institution. Together, all these items make up the largest collection of the artist’s work. The museum holdings have now been extended to include seventeen original works on paper, produced between 1931 and 1953, a loan from the Miró family. Over the years, paper was the material that Joan Miró most frequently used, and he worked with all kinds, from sandpaper and cardboard to newspaper and other printed materials. His artistic output in this medium was innovative and daring. Moreover, the immediacy resulting from working on paper allows for a closer look at the artist’s method. The new Permanent Collection displays have been made possible thanks to generous funding from the Catalan Government. The new displays technically upgrade all the rooms, most notably with an improved, state-of-the art lighting system. In addition, the new displays feature wall texts that explain the different techniques used by Miró – from painting and sculpture, to textiles, ceramics, and prints – and place his artistic development within its original historical context: his training in Barcelona, the time he spent in Paris, his relations with the early avant-garde, his interest in experimentation, and the emergence of a highly personal style.
