He mixes everyday items\, movements\, and thoughts to create multimedia assemblages\, paintings\, performances\, and text-based signs. \nHouston is best known for his public performances and installation work on FDR Drive by New York’s East River\, where he has been working since 1997. These site-specific installations include his writing\, poetry\, singing\, found objects\, and fruit\, which are used as both props and materials. Otis Houston Jr.: My Name is My Word will be the artist’s first museum exhibition. \nHouston’s artistic journey began in the 1990s when he worked on a series of print-media collages while incarcerated. Since then\, he has cultivated an ongoing journaling practice\, recording his experiences and beliefs. These insights are some of his many missives and protests spray-painted on a series of towels and canvases and displayed in public spaces and performances. His work often addresses racism\, poverty\, and addiction\, while promoting messages of health\, love\, and self-acceptance. \nThe fluidity of his practice generously invites viewers to both give and receive. He encourages public engagement and accepts environmental influences in his open-air studio and stage. \n*Houston will be at the John Michael Kohler Arts Center October 3–7\, sharing his assemblage work and performances. He will be working with the exhibitions team to install some of his existing work\, while also making new work on-site. During that time\, he will have open hours to share his process and converse with visitors. After he leaves\, the gallery will close for a week as we prepare to open an exhibition of this work\, on view from October 15\, 2022–January 14\, 2023. \n  \n  \nImage: Otis Houston Jr.\, The Thangofmajig\, 2018; found and altered objects and mixed media; 38 x 26 3/4 x 14 1/2 in.

The earliest examples of these were stylized masks\, later replaced by more realistically rendered painted portraits. Using evidence from the archaeological record and the Book of the Dead—a series of spells meant to guide the dead as they sought eternal life—art professor Lorelei Corcoran will discuss the production and function of the “mummy portraits” that were popular throughout Egypt in the Roman period. She’ll also explore what these images reveal about the religious beliefs and multilayered ethnicities of their subjects. \nThis hybrid event will be held in person and online. The event will be held at the Geological Lecture Hall\, 24 Oxford Street\, in Cambridge. Free parking is available in the 52 Oxford Street Garage. \nThis event is free\, but advance registration required for either virtual or in-person attendance. A Zoom link will be shared upon registration for those opting to join virtually. \nPresented by the Harvard Museum of the Ancient Near East and the Harvard Museums of Science & Culture in collaboration with the Harvard Art Museums. The related Harvard Art Museums exhibition\, Funerary Portraits from Roman Egypt: Facing Forward\, is on view through December 30\, 2022. \n  Save   URL:https://artinamericaguide.com/event/mummy-portraits-of-roman-egypt-status-ethnicity-and-magic/ LOCATION:Geological Lecture Hall\, 24 Oxford Street Cambridge MA\, 24 Oxford Street\, Cambridge\, MA\, 02138\, United States CATEGORIES:Event,Virtual Events + Viewing Rooms ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://artinamericaguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/Portrait-of-a-woman_Funerary-Portraits.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Harvard Art Museums":MAILTO:john_connolly@harvard.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20221006T180000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20221006T200000 DTSTAMP:20260405T100053 CREATED:20220825T181125Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220825T181125Z UID:97088-1665079200-1665086400@artinamericaguide.com SUMMARY:Maira Kalman: Women Holding Things Opening Reception DESCRIPTION:Mary Ryan Gallery is pleased to present Women Holding Things\, a collection of over 30 new paintings by Maira Kalman. Created during the pandemic\, it is a love song to the women in our world. This will be Kalman’s debut exhibition at Mary Ryan Gallery. \n“What do women hold?” Kalman asks. “The home and the family. And the children and the food. The friendships. The work. The work of the world. And the work of being human. The memories. And the troubles. And the sorrows and the triumphs. And the love.” \nWomen Holding Things began in the spring of 2021 as Kalman and her son\, Alex Kalman\, created a limited-edition booklet by the same name which served as the conceptual basis of the publication and exhibition opening this fall. The booklet\, which began as a fundraiser in support of charities combating hunger\, expanded to a full book published by HarperCollins with eighty-six paintings illustrating Kalman’s meditations on womanhood. The exhibition on view at Mary Ryan Gallery will include over thirty of the paintings originally published in the book. Each work on view is characterized by Kalman’s trademark style and use of dense gouache to create richly colored paintings on paper. \nTraining her sensitive eye on the inimitable women in her life\, Kalman captures with quiet power the essence of women that have captured her imagination via the objects that fit between their hands—from books to cabbages—and the wealth of meaning ascribed to these objects. In a tour de force of visual storytelling\, she gently reveals the universality of the things her subjects hold dear— the things that burden\, haunt\, and nourish them. The objects held are tools—and occasionally\, evidence—of a life lived\, and as such\, the inanimate objects captured in Kalman’s paintings are each pinned by the hope\, joy and sadness of those that carry them. \nThe figures holding things in Kalman’s paintings include a wide range of wo men. Some\, like Gertrude Stein\, Edith Sitwell\, Ayana V. Jackson\, or Kiki Smith\, are well known. Others\, such as Kalman’s daughter\, granddaughters\, or cousin Iris\, are fixtures of Kalman’s intimate life. Also included in Women Holding Things are select portraits of men\, including Rilke and Chekov and Kalman’s father. Finally\, there are portraits of objects holding things. All of Kalman’s subjects hold a rich interiority. \n  Save   URL:https://artinamericaguide.com/event/maira-kalman-women-holding-things-opening-reception/ LOCATION:Mary Ryan Gallery\, 515 W 26th St\, 3rd Fl\, New York\, NY\, 10001\, United States CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://artinamericaguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/kiki-in-the-garden-framed-1.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Mary Ryan Gallery":MAILTO:info@maryryangallery.com GEO:40.7500935;-74.0036112 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Mary Ryan Gallery 515 W 26th St 3rd Fl New York NY 10001 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=515 W 26th St\, 3rd Fl:geo:-74.0036112,40.7500935 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20221007T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20221007T180000 DTSTAMP:20260405T100053 CREATED:20220928T173450Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220928T173450Z UID:99151-1665147600-1665165600@artinamericaguide.com SUMMARY:We Are Made of Stories: Selfhood and Experience in Art: The Margaret Z.

It invites visitors to embrace the Enlightenment’s same spirit of inquiry—to investigate\, to persuade\, and to imagine. The exhibition is on view at the Harvard Art Museums through January 15\, 2023. \nWe will first gather in the galleries with Elizabeth Rudy\, the Carl A. Weyerhaeuser Curator of Prints\, and visiting artist Angela Lorenz. Rudy will explain the main themes of the exhibition and focus on a few works that present mysteries that remain unsolved. Lorenz will show examples of her “McSpheres” (Material Culture Spheres). These spheres serve as a low-tech\, open model for the 3-D visualization of objects. She developed them as tools to explore\, categorize\, and describe any object in the world—and to create connections with other objects. Participants will have an opportunity to closely examine and discuss the selected works together in the galleries. We will then proceed to the Materials Lab to fashion our own McSpheres. A conversation about the participants’ creations and the works in the exhibition will conclude the workshop. \nLorenz sees the McSphere as “a call and response specific to Dare to Know\, but [also as] a way to access critical thinking that applies to any object\, environment\, cupboard\, refrigerator\, living room or neighborhood. Some people will go micro to the carbon atom and the water cycle\, others macro to settler colonialism and global trade.” The artist’s hope is that the McSphere will serve as a tool for the exploration of objects in other museums\, neighborhoods\, and contexts. \nLed by:\nElizabeth Rudy\, Carl A. Weyerhaeuser Curator of Prints\, Harvard Art Museums\nAngela Lorenz\, Artist \nNo prior experience necessary. Bring your imagination\, curiosity\, and creativity! This workshop will take place in the Materials Lab\, Lower Level. \n$15 materials fee. Registration is required and space is limited.

The selection\, including both short and feature-length films\, is meant to provide teens with an opportunity to watch work focused explicitly on their experiences. Covering a range of topics\, emotions\, and nuances\, these free films—depending on length and scope—will be followed by conversation with faculty from the Cambridge Rindge and Latin School. \nAbout today’s films:\nThe One You Never Forget\, 2019 (Morgan Jon Fox; English; 9 min.) \nA 14-year-old African American excitedly prepares for his first prom\, but when his date arrives he’s faced with a split-second decision. \nSublime\, 2022 (Meinkincine; Spanish with English subtitles; 100 min.) \nSixteen-year-old Manuel lives in a small coastal town. He plays bass in a band with his best friends. One of them is Felipe\, with whom he shares a strong friendship from a very young age.

Lorenz will show examples of her “McSpheres” (Material Culture Spheres). These spheres serve as a low-tech\, open model for the 3-D visualization of objects. She developed them as tools to explore\, categorize\, and describe any object in the world—and to create connections with other objects. Participants will have an opportunity to closely examine and discuss the selected works together in the galleries. We will then proceed to the Materials Lab to fashion our own McSpheres. A conversation about the participants’ creations and the works in the exhibition will conclude the workshop. \nLorenz sees the McSphere as “a call and response specific to Dare to Know\, but [also as] a way to access critical thinking that applies to any object\, environment\, cupboard\, refrigerator\, living room or neighborhood. Some people will go micro to the carbon atom and the water cycle\, others macro to settler colonialism and global trade.” The artist’s hope is that the McSphere will serve as a tool for the exploration of objects in other museums\, neighborhoods\, and contexts. \nLed by:\nElizabeth Rudy\, Carl A.

But what does it mean when a contemporary artist\, and woman\, employs the same drama and dynamics to her application of paint and subject? Is it a means to equalize the art world? A way to consume and redefine patriarchal artistic language and practice? Does this type of paint application mean certain emotions\, is it all just symbolic of something else\, something more personal\, something inherent in the artist? All good questions\, and one can argue that all of the above are behind this artist’s venture in Abstract Expressionism and in so doing much of the work can be seen as a response to the questions posited here.  After Party\, for example\, presents the viewer with an initial explosion of color\, drips\, and squiggly lines\, but after closer inspection one is able to discern why the piece is titled so – martini olives are all over the place\, a green pumpkin and what could be an electric heater. With a color palette of blues\, black\,  greens and red there are levels to the piece and ways in which to interpret – the background is blue – suggesting daylight\, the day after a party and what many encounter the morning after – but in that ‘mess’ are memories\, good\, uncomfortable\, but also hassles; did the kids get enough sleep\, did we make too much noise\, “ugh\, I have to clean this mess”- was the party worth it? What is different in Leggett’s work\, unlike that of Pollack\, is she is documenting and explaining her life and what she does and in so doing she creates a new language that is not masculine\, patriarchal or expected – this is the language of Liz Leggett. Leggett’s powerful language is further seen in Holding Pen\, another large scale work that through palette and line creates a grid and other geometric shapes that in their entirety suggest a mask – is this the intent? Is this the artist\, why are some lines stronger than others\, why this palette – all these questions and others are what is central and behind any kind of abstraction – what does it all mean? Abstraction can be looked at in many ways – easily one can apply psychoanalytical theory\, color theory\, and even feminist theory\, and in the case of Liz Leggett all these theories find comfort in her work – but the greatest attribute that affords all these associations and approaches are found in her lines. It takes great courage to create a line that stands out and alone yet unifies\, and Leggett’s lines do just that\, they unify the artist and the viewer in the field of interpretation. The are the entrance into the work\, and hold everything together – they break expectation\, order\, and award the viewer with distinct vignettes into this person’s life and in so doing give meaning to what we often consider the mundane\, which though through this artist’s hand are elevated to the sublime.  \n  Save   URL:https://artinamericaguide.com/event/liz-leggett-abstractly-frenzied-and-separate-unified-by-a-line/ LOCATION:The CAMP Gallery Westport\, 190 Main Street\, Westport\, CT\, 06880\, United States CATEGORIES:Event,Exhibition ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://artinamericaguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/IMG_2218-scaled.jpeg ORGANIZER;CN="The Contemporary Art Modern Project":MAILTO:hello@thecampgallery.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20221028T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20221028T190000 DTSTAMP:20260405T100053 CREATED:20221021T145112Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221021T145112Z UID:100011-1666976400-1666983600@artinamericaguide.com SUMMARY:Kaethe Kauffman: Workshop at Castello 925 DESCRIPTION:Since the ’90s\, Kaethe Kauffman has worked with the female body studying and documenting its movement and creating out of this performative process\, a series of abstracted images. These artworks\, inspired by the practice of yoga\, investigate the theme of freedom by challenging the objectification by society of women’s bodies. Using string dipped in paint\, the artist ties the filament around a hand\, knee\, elbow\, or torso\, and when the body part is flexed\, the movement is recorded as an off-printing of paint on skin. In Kauffman’s art\, the body writes itself upon its own skin in a ritual of self-revelation. This act of marking and exposure is documented by Kauffman’s photographic images\, which are digitally repeated and colored\, drawn upon by hand in a variety of media and the vibrant results are printed on silk much like the large banners found in Buddhist temples. In an expansion of the body’s own “speech” through movement\, Kaethe Kauffman’s images combine into larger fields of replication and mirroring\, until the individual body is subsumed into a larger vision. \nKaethe Kauffman’s solo exhibition Yoga: Interiore Eterno at Castello 925\, Venice Italy will feature a workshop about abstraction and movement involving audience members.\nDuring this workshop the audience will have the opportunity to become a both a model for the artist and a participant in her creative process. \n  Save   URL:https://artinamericaguide.com/event/kaethe-kauffman-workshop-at-castello-925/ LOCATION:Castello 925\, Fondamenta San Giuseppe\, Sestiere Castello 925\, Venice\, Veneto\, 30122\, Italy CATEGORIES:Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://artinamericaguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Screen-Shot-2022-10-20-at-2.23.48-PM.png ORGANIZER;CN="Cross Contemporary Art Projects":MAILTO:crosscontemporaryprojects@gmail.com END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20221028T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20221028T190000 DTSTAMP:20260405T100053 CREATED:20221024T190813Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221024T190813Z UID:100057-1666976400-1666983600@artinamericaguide.com SUMMARY:Opening Reception and Artist Talk for Transformations: A Gender Exploration by Mariette Pathy Allen DESCRIPTION:Mariette Pathy Allen has been photographing the transgender\, genderfluid\, and intersex communities for over 40 years.

DESCRIPTION:Winter is approaching. Soon days will be short and nights long. We are inviting our guests to go up in the attic and dust off their scariest Halloween get-up and join us for the 4th Friday reception and opening of new exhibits. There will be prizes for best costumes. \n  \nIt’s not all scary stuff\, as we are also inviting children (and adults love this too) to an artful scavenger hunt and pumpkin decorating activity. And the new exhibits will put you in the Halloween mood including:  Phantasmagorium by Chris Semtner\, Spontaneous Markings by George Hughes\, The Magical World of Little Lamzy Divy by Andrea Danner and the All Media Show with a Dark Art theme. \n  \nPlease join us October 28th\, 6 p.m. – 8 p.m. for the opening reception. Meet these extraordinary artists\, enjoy live music\, and celebrate with us with refreshments and libations benefiting RVA Thriving Artists.  Parking is free. \n  \nPhantasmagorium by Chris Semtner \nArtist\, author\, and curator Chris Semtner may be best known as the horror and dark history expert who has appeared on PBS\, BBC\, American Heroes Channel\, C-Span\, and other networks and who has written articles for Biography.com\, Crime Writers Chronicle\, and other publications. His museum exhibits have been reviewed in The New York Times\, Deep South Magazine\, and other publications. In the midst of jurying and curating exhibits across the country and keeping a busy speaking schedule that has taken him to venues ranging from the Steampunk World’s Fair to the Library of Congress and as far away as Japan\, Semtner continues to paint mesmerizing pictures informed by his years of research into things phantasmagorical\, chimerical\, and outré. The sources of his imagery are hazy memories\, half-forgotten dreams\, dusty old books\, and seldom seen black-and-white movies. \n  \nThe exhibit will be in the Jane Sandelin Gallery. \nSpontaneous Markings by George Hughes \nRaised in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Bedford County\, Virginia\, George Hughes developed a deep appreciation for nature. While earning his Bachelor of Arts from VCU\, he was immediately struck with the tension between the urban environment and the rural atmosphere to which he was accustom. VCU introduced Hughes to a more expressive style of working that was spontaneous and free forming through impressionistic landscape. Hughes focused on the improvisational mark and vivid color. Hughes has traveled all over the country visiting National Forests that have inspired his work. The exhibit will be in the Corner Gallery. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nThe Magical World of Little Lamzy Divy by Andrea Danner \n  \nAndrea Danner knew she was an artist as a girl\, winning the Smoky the Bear coloring contest at the age of five. Most of her artwork revolves around her love and passion for animals and nature. In her recent work which is made of paper mâché and paper clay\, she focuses on bringing paper to life through fun and a bit of “magic”. Many of the materials she uses are repurposed and recycled\, including old library book pages. Her whimsical creations bring her joy and laughter\, that she shares with others. \n  \nThe exhibit will be in the Skylight Gallery \n  \n  \nDARK ART – OCTOBER 2022 ALL MEDIA ART SHOW \nThis exhibit is a focal point of all Art Works’ openings. It is a juried show with cash prizes and is open to all artists and all mediums. The theme is “dark art”. After all it is Halloween\, and a spooky exhibit seems fitting. \n  \nCall for entries is September 23\, 2022 – October 18\, 2022. Submit your entries through our online form.

In the midst of jurying and curating exhibits across the country and keeping a busy speaking schedule that has taken him to venues ranging from the Steampunk World’s Fair to the Library of Congress and as far away as Japan\, Semtner continues to paint mesmerizing pictures informed by his years of research into things phantasmagorical\, chimerical\, and outré. The sources of his imagery are hazy memories\, half-forgotten dreams\, dusty old books\, and seldom seen black-and-white movies. \n  \nThe exhibit will be in the Jane Sandelin Gallery. \nSpontaneous Markings by George Hughes \nRaised in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Bedford County\, Virginia\, George Hughes developed a deep appreciation for nature. While earning his Bachelor of Arts from VCU\, he was immediately struck with the tension between the urban environment and the rural atmosphere to which he was accustom. VCU introduced Hughes to a more expressive style of working that was spontaneous and free forming through impressionistic landscape. Hughes focused on the improvisational mark and vivid color. Hughes has traveled all over the country visiting National Forests that have inspired his work. The exhibit will be in the Corner Gallery. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nThe Magical World of Little Lamzy Divy by Andrea Danner \n  \nAndrea Danner knew she was an artist as a girl\, winning the Smoky the Bear coloring contest at the age of five. Most of her artwork revolves around her love and passion for animals and nature. In her recent work which is made of paper mâché and paper clay\, she focuses on bringing paper to life through fun and a bit of “magic”. Many of the materials she uses are repurposed and recycled\, including old library book pages. Her whimsical creations bring her joy and laughter\, that she shares with others. \n  \nThe exhibit will be in the Skylight Gallery \n  \n  \nDARK ART – OCTOBER 2022 ALL MEDIA ART SHOW \nThis exhibit is a focal point of all Art Works’ openings. It is a juried show with cash prizes and is open to all artists and all mediums. The theme is “dark art”. After all it is Halloween\, and a spooky exhibit seems fitting. \n  \nCall for entries is September 23\, 2022 – October 18\, 2022. Submit your entries through our online form.

The selection\, including both short and feature-length films\, is meant to provide teens with an opportunity to watch work focused explicitly on their experiences. Covering a range of topics\, emotions\, and nuances\, these free films—depending on length and scope—will be followed by conversation with faculty from the Cambridge Rindge and Latin School. \nAbout today’s film:\nTrain to Busan\, 2016 (Well Go USA; Korean with English subtitles; 118 min.) \nWhen a mysterious virus breaks out across South Korea\, the infected transform into the murderous undead in this wildly successful 2016 thriller Train to Busan\, an official New York Times Critic’s Pick that Slant Magazine credits with scare tactics “among the most distinctive the zombie canon has ever seen.” As terrified travelers fight for their lives on a bullet train from hell\, the result is a gory high-speed collision between the rich and the poor\, the living and the undead\, and the best and worst of human nature. When some among them prove willing to sell their soul for a shot at survival\, trust may prove to be a luxury even the richest passengers cannot afford. \nPlease note that the film is not rated\, and features violence and horror. \nFree admission\, but seating is limited and reservations are required. Reservations may be arranged by clicking on the event on this form beginning on Thursday\, October 20\, after 10am. \nThe screening will take place in Menschel Hall\, Lower Level. Doors will open at 1:30pm. \nPlease see the museum visit page to learn about our general policies for visiting the museums. \nThe Harvard Art Museums are committed to accessibility for all visitors.

The exhibition\, Trees\, marks Bowling’s first solo presentation with the gallery. \nAs a landscape painter\, Bowling finds inspiration in the nature that surrounds her in upstate New York\, musing on the myriad ways that light\, season\, and perspective can shape appearance in nature. \nBowling constructs her works by using oil paint layered onto matte spackle on wood panel. She often begins with a sketch of a tree from memory\, a photograph\, or observed in nature. After planting the initial image\, she then scrapes away the surface\, responding and rebuilding the painting based on the marks left behind. In addition to brushes\, Bowling uses her hands\, sandpaper\, paper towels\, and other materials that create a tactile experience of creation. Air bubbles\, paint drips\, and other imperfections are incorporated into the work. The resulting images are luminous\, and often soft in focus. While trees remain the central subject\, other images and figures often emerge and fade into the background. \nBowling lives and works in upstate New York and in New York City. She has always found inspiration in forests. Glimpses of water through trees reappear in her work throughout her career\, like a recurring dream. Season and light are also central subjects to Bowling’s work. In Summer Sun\, daylight dapples through leaves and becomes the key presence in the work. In Family\, twilight hues throw stately conifers into striking architectural silhouettes. Dusky blues provide dramatic contrast to autumn leaves in Orange Fall\, and bleak winter grays create shadowy woods in Dark Walk. Amid the landscape that influenced the sweeping vistas of the Hudson River School\, Bowling instead explores the beauty and calm found in ordinary\, steadfast trees \n  Save   URL:https://artinamericaguide.com/event/katherine-bowling-trees/ LOCATION:Winston Wächter Fine Art\, 530 W 25th St\, New York\, New York\, 10001 CATEGORIES:Event,Exhibition ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://artinamericaguide.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/CO-12562-scaled.jpeg ORGANIZER;CN="Winston Wachter Fine Art":MAILTO:nygallery@winstonwachter.com GEO:40.7493621;-74.0047021 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Winston Wächter Fine Art 530 W 25th St New York New York 10001;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=530 W 25th St:geo:-74.0047021,40.7493621 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Halifax:20221103T123000 DTEND;TZID=America/Halifax:20221103T130000 DTSTAMP:20260405T100053 CREATED:20221103T193947Z LAST-MODIFIED:20221103T193947Z UID:100253-1667478600-1667480400@artinamericaguide.com SUMMARY:Gallery Talk: Dare to Know: Prints and Drawings in the Age of Enlightenment DESCRIPTION:Join curator Horace Ballard for an exploration of the observation and documentation of astronomical events in the 18th century as exemplified in a drawing by British artist Paul Sandby.
