SUMMARY:Otis Houston Jr.: My Name is My Word
DESCRIPTION:Living in Harlem\, New York\, Otis Houston Jr. acts as an alchemist. 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.

SUMMARY:Katherine Bowling | "Trees"
DESCRIPTION:Winston Wächter Fine Art\, New York is pleased to present an exhibition of new and recent paintings by Katherine Bowling. 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

SUMMARY:Roses\, Ruffs\, and Reflections | Alicia Brown\, Claire Partington\, Tony Scherman
DESCRIPTION:Winston Wächter Fine Art\, New York is pleased to present “Roses\, Ruffs\, and Reflections”\, a group exhibition featuring works by Alicia Brown\, Claire Partington\, and Tony Scherman. Each artist employs traditional techniques and historical styles in distinctly different ways that continues the conversation of the deep-rooted constructs of power and oppression that have been seen throughout generations. The works are hauntingly hopeful and carry the strength of persistence\, wrapped together with a bit of humor in their visions for the future. \nIn Imaginary Homelands\, Alicia Brown celebrates the perseverance of migrants who have left their home countries either voluntarily or by force. Brown uses portraiture to tell the stories of friends and family from Jamaica residing in the United States. She combines elements from Jamaican culture including native plants\, animals\, objects\, symbols\, and idioms with elements from Western art and history. In doing so\, Brown examines the duality of who a subject was in their homeland and who they become in order to adapt and survive in a foreign culture. Objects such as Elizabethan ruff collars evoke narratives of power\, control\, and social status\, while native Caribbean plants create an environment of home. In these powerful portraits\, Brown celebrates the ingenuity with which immigrants both adapt to and shape their adopted homes. \nClaire Partington’s mixed-media ceramic sculptures draw from both traditional and contemporary art practices. Referencing portraiture conventions from throughout art history as well as contemporary social media\, Partington humorously comments on constructs of gender and power. Echo and Narcissus are a pair of sculptures inspired by Greek Mythology. Echo\, a mountain nymph who could only repeat the last word that she heard and Narcissus\, who fell in love with his own reflection\, are depicted as teenagers absorbed in their phones. These porcelain and earthenware figures reference not only antiquity but fashionable sculpture from the 18th century. In these and other works\, Partington playfully mixes up imagery from antiquity\, social media\, art history\, folklore\, and fashion to prompt questions about interpretation and narrative\, particularly about women\, and particularly about power.  \nTony Scherman works in the ancient technique of encaustic by layering wax\, oil paint\, and pigments to build deeply expressive paintings. His series\, For all the wise women persecuted as “witches”\, is dedicated to women throughout history to the present day who have been punished for their wisdom\, progressiveness\, or determination. Each piece depicts two roses\, illuminated in an ethereal yellow-green light against a swirling dark ground. The flowers stand out against a depth of darkness as petals\, leaves\, and other elements play and shift along the surface of the painting. The roses are a tribute\, a hopeful beacon of perseverance against the oppression of forward-thinking women. \n  Save

SUMMARY:Opening Lecture: “Norma Minkowitz: Body to Soul”
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Diffley Board Room for an opening night lecture to celebrate the opening of the exhibition Norma Minkowitz: Body to Soul\, on view in the Bellarmine Hall Galleries from January 27 – April 6\, 2023. Curator Sarah Parrish\, PhD\, Assistant Professor of Art History\, Plymouth State University\, will introduce the exhibition. A reception with light refreshments will follow at 6 p.m. in the Great Hall\, accompanied by live music\, and the Bellarmine Hall Galleries will be open 6-8 p.m. \nWe invite you to join the conversation via the following options: \n\nIn-person in the Diffley Board Room (1st floor of Bellarmine Hall)\nStreaming via thequicklive.com or https://bit.ly/BodytoSoul\n\nAbout the exhibition: \nNorma Minkowitz: Body to Soul is a solo exhibition surveying the artist’s four-decade engagement with the physical and symbolic properties of thread. Minkowitz reinvents traditional needlework by crocheting fantastical forms\, coating them in resin and shellac to create rigid sculptures and hangings. The delicate\, mesh-like surfaces of her artworks break down oppositions between soft and hard\, inside and outside\, body and soul. \nThe poetic title Body to Soul  is borrowed from just one of the sculptures that will be on view\, but it is a broader theme that reverberates across the exhibition’s selection of over thirty vessels\, sculptures\, wall hangings\, wearables\, and works on paper – including never-before-seen examples coming from the artist’s studio. \nNorma Minkowitz lives and works in Connecticut.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: “Norma Minkowitz: Body to Soul”
DESCRIPTION:Join us after the opening lecture for light refreshments in the Great Hall! \nJoin us as we celebrate the opening of the exhibition Norma Minkowitz: Body to Soul\, on view in the Bellarmine Hall Galleries from January 27 – April 6\, 2023. Light refreshments will be served in the Great Hall\, accompanied by live music. The Bellarmine Hall Galleries will also be open until 8 p.m. \nAbout the exhibition: \nNorma Minkowitz: Body to Soul is a solo exhibition surveying the artist’s four-decade engagement with the physical and symbolic properties of thread. Minkowitz reinvents traditional needlework by crocheting fantastical forms\, coating them in resin and shellac to create rigid sculptures and hangings. The delicate\, mesh-like surfaces of her artworks break down oppositions between soft and hard\, inside and outside\, body and soul. \nThe poetic title Body to Soul  is borrowed from just one of the sculptures that will be on view\, but it is a broader theme that reverberates across the exhibition’s selection of over thirty vessels\, sculptures\, wall hangings\, wearables\, and works on paper – including never-before-seen examples coming from the artist’s studio. \nNorma Minkowitz lives and works in Connecticut. Her work is represented in private and public collections across the United States and internationally. She is unique among fiber artists creating hard sculptures from soft materials\, and for using thread to invoke universal themes of mortality\, memory\, nature\, and writing. The exhibition is guest curated by Sarah Parrish PhD.\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Plymouth State University\, New Hampshire. \nhttps://www.fairfield.edu/museum/norma-minkowitz/ \n  \nImage: Norma Minkowitz\, Baggage\, 2007\, fiber\, resin\, modeling paste\, paint.

SUMMARY:Talya Baharal | SHAPE OF A LANGUAGE | Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:First Street Gallery is pleased to present Shape of A Language\, a solo exhibition of abstract\npaintings by Talya Baharal.\nTalya Baharal’s paintings explore the journey and shaping of her abstract painter’s voice.\nUnintended compositions are seen\, absorbed and re-imagined in the language of abstraction.\nWhether looking at asphalt road repairs or broken ice sheets hovering over a receding river\,\nnoticing a humble mended seam on a garment or a mangled wire on a trash heap – all seem to\nbecome part of Baharal’s imaginary scape; part of her vocabulary of abstraction.\n“Excavating and disturbing surfaces\, whether metaphorically or physically\, have been an\nongoing theme in all my work. Revealing visual remnants of the struggles and the discoveries\nare at the essence of my painting path. I paint for those moments of clarity. I paint for the\ntimes that I find the courage to destroy and rebuild. I paint to feel alive.” *\nIn Baharal’s previous work as a sculptor and maker of wearable objects\, she mainly drew upon\nthe visual language of vulnerability and decay. Much of her attention to shapes of vessels\, \nstructures of contained chaos and the mapping of imaginary scapes is carried over in her\npaintings. Acrylic paint\, ink and other mixed media are her materials of choice. Torn paintings\nand images of previous sculptures used as collage material activate many of her compositions.\nA dialog between the paint\, ink markings and the collage create a rich language of layered lines \nthat intersect expanses of paint. The changing character of lines that appear\, disappear and re-\nappear reveal the armature that connects the composition. Baharal’s work is deeply rooted in \nexcavating the personal journey of a painter’s voice unearthing its vocabulary.\nTalya Baharal lives and and paints in her studio in the Hudson Valley\, NY. Born in Tel Aviv\,\nIsrael. Raised there and in London she moved to NYC in 1979. Widely recognized\, exhibited and\npublished as a studio art jeweler and sculptor for over three decades\, she is the recipient of a\nNYFA fellowship\, other grants and awards. Baharal was a juror on NYFA sculpture/craft panel\nand the curator of a book on contemporary art jewelry. While living in Maine for a few years\,\nshe began focusing exclusively on painting and studied with Steve Aimone. Upon her return to\nNew York she studied with Fran O’Neill and John Lees at the NY Studio School. A solo exhibition\nof her paintings “Raw Ink – Blue Paint” was exhibited at Five Points Art Center Gallery in\nTorrington\, CT in 2021. Shape of A Language\, her upcoming exhibition in February 2023 at First\nStreet Gallery is her first solo painting exhibition in NYC. Her paintings were part of several\ngroup shows in Chelsea\, Connecticut and the Hudson Valley. Baharal is represented in CA by\nLulo Gallery in Healdsburg\, Sonoma\, where a solo exhibition is scheduled for November 2023. \n* Talya Baharal – statement. \n  Save

SUMMARY:Opening Reception | Camille Billops: Mirror\, Mirror
DESCRIPTION:Camille Billops\nMirror\, Mirror\nFebruary 16 – March 25\, 2023\nOpening reception: February 16\, 2023\, 6:00-8:00 pm \nRYAN LEE is pleased to announce Mirror\, Mirror\, a solo exhibition of works by the multidisciplinary artist\, filmmaker\, and activist Camille Billops. Featuring a series of ceramic mirrors\, etchings\, and drawings\, this is the first significant solo presentation of Billops’s later work. \nInfused with experiences of travels abroad\, including globally informed artistic practices\, Billops first began forging space for her art and activism in the 1960s in New York. A pioneering member of the emerging black artists movement\, her work and activism were entwined\, engaging with civil rights alongside exclusionary systems of the art industry at large.  Throughout her life\, her artwork drew from these themes\, from the ever-presence of racism to gender dynamics\, black culture\, and personal narrative and history. \n “All my work is about the celebration of family\, my private stories and personal vision\,” shared Billops in a 1985 interview published in ISSUE\, A Journal for Artists. Referencing the Kaohsiung drawings – originally made in Kaohsiung\, Taiwan\, three of which are featured in this exhibition – she shares that the characters are in fact her and her husband\, James V. Hatch\, after a “magnificent fight.” \nBillops was not only comfortable turning the intimate outward\, she was strategic about it\, using exposé as a tactic to confront the follies and failures of life\, and resolutely unafraid to include her own. For a 2012 show\, Billops had commented that her art is “about ‘victory over obscurity and ignorance\, and confirmation of herself.’” In this sense\, we are able to grasp a fuller picture of the artist\, whose activism and committed preservation of black arts and culture is as large a part of her legacy and impact as her work is. Her output\, holistically\, is perseverance – at once personal and collective. \nBillops’s sense of self-confirmation through self-portraiture\, refrained in the Kaohsiung drawings\, is inherent to the nature of her later mirror series. Begun in the early 2000s and completed in 2011\, these metaphorically reflective works are likewise literal presentations of the viewer\, placing us squarely within the contexts of the frame. \n In some\, the mirrors’ ceramic-frame illustrations are figurative\, as in Untitled (Checkered) (2003)\, where cartoonish characters engage in a mock-Americana tableau evoking a realm of behaviors from suspicious to blithe. In White Woman with US Flags (2011)\, the denotation may be more literal\, but the style breaks molds with its looseness of form\, as variously proportioned pieces of ceramic dance across the frame. The artwork is detailed with American flags placed amidst the other ceramic pieces\, each painted with a shadowy fist raised in silhouette against the stripes. \nAlso included are her Mondo Negro series of lithographs. This presentation of works\, shown together for the first time\, honors Billops’s canonical output as an artist-activist. In five variations\, Billops portrays in bold\, slanting lines\, characters and snakes at times falling and at times burning in abstracted landscapes portraying a “black world.”  The series continues to bring her perceptive artwork into conversation not only with its own multimedia contexts\, but also with those broader contexts that are presciently resonant within them.  \n  Save

SUMMARY:Family Day: Fantastical Fibers
DESCRIPTION:Join us for arts & crafts inspired by the exhibition\, “Norma Minkowitz: Body to Soul”! \nJoin us in the Bellarmine Hall Galleries’ SmArt Classroom for arts & crafts designed for ages 4-10. Children will learn about various weaving techniques\, inspired by the exhibition Norma Minkowitz: Body to Soul\, on view in the Bellarmine Hall Galleries January 27 – April 8\, 2023. \nActivities will include: \n\nWeaving with looms\nMaking 3D vessels out of string\nMaking collages\nGallery activities\n\nPlease note: This event is in-person only. Space is limited. If you are unable to attend\, please let us know via email: museum@fairfield.edu \nTicket options: Space is limited–please select Session 1 OR Session 2 and register with how many children are attending. Example: 1 ticket=1 child. \nVideo tutorials are available via email request. \nAbout the exhibition: Norma Minkowitz: Body to Soul is a solo exhibition surveying the artist’s four-decade engagement with the physical and symbolic properties of thread. Minkowitz reinvents traditional needlework by crocheting fantastical forms\, coating them in resin and shellac to create rigid sculptures and hangings. The delicate\, mesh-like surfaces of her artworks break down oppositions between soft and hard\, inside and outside\, body and soul. \nThe poetic title Body to Soul  is borrowed from just one of the sculptures that will be on view\, but it is a broader theme that reverberates across the exhibition’s selection of over thirty vessels\, sculptures\, wall hangings\, wearables\, and works on paper – including never-before-seen examples coming from the artist’s studio. \nNorma Minkowitz lives and works in Connecticut. Her work is represented in private and public collections across the United States and internationally. She is unique among fiber artists creating hard sculptures from soft materials\, and for using thread to invoke universal themes of mortality\, memory\, nature\, and writing. The exhibition is guest curated by Sarah Parrish PhD.\, Assistant Professor of Art History at Plymouth State University\, New Hampshire. \nhttps://www.fairfield.edu/museum/norma-minkowitz/ \n  \nImage: Norma Minkowitz\, Chrysalis\, 2004\, wood\, fiber\, paint\, resin.

SUMMARY:BAAHNG SPOTLIGHT  | With R.C. Baker & Sharon Butler
DESCRIPTION:Jennifer Baahng Gallery invites you to a discussion about America — past\, present\, and future. Artists R.C. Baker and Sharon Butler will delve into the ways their work grapples with today’s digital miasma\, as well as what culture critic Greil Marcus famously termed “the old\, weird\, America.” In Butler’s Idiomerica series\, painted pixels collide with inkjet prints of household tools\, layered images that conjure the capitalist sprawl of the suburbs. In his series The Terminal Century\, Baker’s psychedelically bright\, painted collages imagine how the Blues and the Bomb bookended history’s most — at least\, so far — violent century. \nIn all of the works on view in this group show\, PITCHES & SCRIPTS\, beauty blooms from dross and calamity alike in narratives of power\, race\, politics\, solitude\, and entropy. Come and ask questions\, and see if the artists’ answers are as trenchant as the works on the wall. \nR.C. Baker is the Editor-in-Chief of the Village Voice and is a Visiting Artist in the MFA Studio Art program at NYU Steinhardt. The founder of the blogazine Two Coats of Paint\, Sharon Butler is Adjunct Faculty in the MFA program at the University of Connecticut. \nSeating for this event is limited and available on a first-come-first-serve basis. \n  Save
