Image courtesy The Contemporary Jewish Museum. Photo by JKA Photography. HOUSTON, TX (April 4, 2018)—The Contemporary Arts Museum Houston (CAMH) is #CaryLeibowitzCAMH pleased to present Cary Leibowitz: Museum Show, the first comprehensive career survey #atCAMH and solo museum exhibition of Leibowitz’s work. The exhibition features nearly 350 original @camhouston artworks from 1987 to the present, including paintings, fabric works, multiples, installations, documentation, photography, and ephemera. Cary Leibowitz: Museum Show has an opening reception on the evening of May 11 and will remain on view through August 26, 2018. New York–based artist Cary Leibowitz (b. 1963) creates bold, brightly colored, and comically self-effacing text-based works which draw on both a gay and Jewish perspective in order to address issues of identity, kitsch, modernist critique, and queer politics. Included in the exhibition are paintings that read, “Here I am please don’t be mean” and “I just got a pair of Gucci for Bergdorfs loafers for 50% off and I really do feel better.” A white porcelain fish- shaped dish reads, “Fucked up homo bar-mitzvah gay boy worries too much about what 1 5216 Montrose Boulevard Houston, Texas 77006 CAMH.ORG | #atCAMH Press Release his mother will wear.” Additionally,

  • Lee Krasner: Living Color
    Press release Opening on September 18 Lee Krasner: Living Color Sponsored by We at Seguros Bilbao would like to welcome you to the exhibition Lee Krasner. Living Color, a vibrant explosion of color and form that resounds with the hopes that we now all place in recovery, within this suspended context in which we have all lived over the last few long months. Art has served to encourage humanity, especially in difficult times, and we believe that specifically the art of Lee Krasner can provide us with inspiration for dealing with the future at a time like this. Incessant creativity and constant reinvention are the hallmarks of this American artist’s work over the course of five decades, summarized in the Museum through a selection of her most emblematic pieces. Although today she is considered one of the most representative figures in American Abstract Expressionism, Krasner did not have it easy. Her status as a woman and the economic hardships of the Great Depression which dominated the US during her formative years turned her wish to become an artist into a fierce struggle. She managed to stand out in painting thanks to her talent, her iron will, and her solid work ethic. Today in Bilbao we can enjoy her astonishing output, which clearly reflects Krasner’s statement of intentions: “I like a canvas to breathe and be alive. Be alive is the point.” Without a doubt, the public will be able to take advantage of the unique opportunity provided by this exhibition to appreciate the vitality and organic qualities of her works.

New paradigms are unsettling and artistic breakthroughs can threaten belief systems people hold dear to their understanding of the art world and how it functions. Some of the most distinguished and iconic artists in modem history have found notoriety and recognition through years, even decades, of slowly evolving acceptance into the cultural mainstream. Once labeled charlatans heralding a clear decline in culture, such eminent artists as Theodore Gericault, Edouard Manet, Pablo Picasso, and Marcel Duchamp incited public fury and scathing criticism in their respective eras for the ground-breaking work they produced.

SHORT SYNOPSIS An entertaining and revelatory “secret history” of Feminist Art, !Women Art Revolution deftly illuminates this under-explored movement through conversations, observations, archival footage and works of visionary artists, historians, curators and critics. Starting from its roots in 1960s antiwar and civil rights protests, the film details major developments in womenʼs art through the 1970s and explores how the tenacity and courage of these pioneering artists resulted in what is now widely regarded as the most significant art movement of the late 20th century. For more than forty years, filmmaker and artist Lynn Hershman Leeson (Teknolust, Strange Culture) has collected a plethora of interviews with her contemporaries—and shaped them into an intimate portrayal of their fight to break down barriers facing women both in the art world and society at large. With a rousing score by Sleater-Kinneyʼs Carrie Brownstein, !W.A.R. features Miranda July, The Guerilla Girls, Yvonne Rainer, Judy Chicago, Marina Abramovic, Yoko Ono, Cindy Sherman, Barbara Kruger, B. Ruby Rich, Ingrid Sischy, Carolee Schneemann, Miriam Schapiro, Marcia Tucker and countless other groundbreaking figures. !WOMEN ART REVOLUTION (!W.A.R.) LONG SYNOPSIS Artist and filmmaker Lynn Hershman Leesonʼs documentary is more than four decades in the making. !Women Art Revolution (!W.A.R.) draws from hundreds of hours of in-the- moment interviews with her contemporaries—visionary artists, historians, curators and critics—to present an intimate portrayal of their fight to break down barriers facing women both in the art world and society at large.

Language: Collection material is in English Biographical/Historical Note Marcia Tucker (1940-2006), American curator, art critic and museum director, studied art and art history at Connecticut College (B.A.) and New York University (M.A.) where she worked with Robert Goldwater. Starting out as an artist, she wrote reviews for art magazines, and cataloged and curated the private collections of Alfred and Margo Barr, and of William and Noma Copley. Finding she preferred the role of art interpreter and presenter, she accepted a position as curator at the Whitney Museum of American Art, where she soon distinguished herself as an innovator and advocate for the underrepresented American artists residing outside New York City, as well as for women artists, African American artists, folk artists, and other sorts of "outsiders." Insisting that the criteria for exhibiting contemporary art should never be those of the connoisseur, Tucker selected work that challenged, disturbed, and resisted interpretation.
