SUMMARY:Performance: Boston Children’s Chorus
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Calderwood Courtyard for a concert performed by the Boston Children’s Chorus\, a dynamic group that harnesses the power of music to connect the City of Boston’s diverse communities\, cultivate empathy\, and inspire social inquiry. \nThe performance is held in conjunction with our special exhibition LaToya M. Hobbs: It’s Time (March 1–July 21\, 2024)\, which presents for the first time a suite of life-size woodcuts titled Carving Out Time by Baltimore-based artist LaToya M. Hobbs. Unfolding over five scenes\, the prints depict one day in Hobbs’s life with her family. The series makes a powerful statement about her influences and self-fashioning as an artist. \nSome of the pieces the Boston Children’s Chorus will perform are directly inspired by the exhibition. \nBefore and after the concert\, guests are invited to visit the exhibition on Level 3. \nFree and open to everyone\, but seating is limited and available on a first-come\, first-served basis. \n  Save

SUMMARY:Opening Reception:  Suzanne Chamlin: Studies in Color
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception \nSuzanne Chamlin: Studies in Color \nBellarmine Hall\, Great Hall and Bellarmine Hall Galleries with Live Music \nIn this exhibition of recent work\, Chamlin explores ideas about color theory and light through a series of landscape and interior stills. Since 2012\, the artist has carefully charted her paints using the Munsell color system\, which analyzes colors in terms of hue (the color itself)\, value (relative light and dark) and chroma (level of saturation or brilliance). For each of her paintings\, Chamlin sets a highly specific palette; experimentation within this limited range then guides her decisions about process and pictorial space. \nAbout the Artist \nSuzanne Chamlin is Associate Professor of Studio Art in the Department of Visual & Performing Arts at Fairfield University. Her drawings are in the collections of the National Gallery of Art\, Yale University Art Gallery\, and the Nelson Atkins Museum. Chamlin has attended residencies at the Albers Foundation\, Yaddo\, Virginia Center for the Creative Arts\, Ragdale\, Fundación Valparaiso\, and Edna St. Vincent Millay Colony. Chamlin received her B.A. from Barnard College and M.F.A. from Yale University. \nFaculty Liaison: Marice Rose\, PhD\, Professor of Art History & Visual Culture \nPresented in conjunction with Suzanne Chamlin: Studies in Color (Bellarmine Hall Galleries\, April 5–July 27) \nSuzanne Chamlin\, Rose Bush\, 2019\, oil on wood panel. © Suzanne Chamlin.

SUMMARY:Prudence Peiffer: The Artists of Coenties Slip
DESCRIPTION:In the 1950s and ’60s\, Coenties Slip—an obscure little street at the lower tip of Manhattan overlooking the East River—was home to several extraordinary\, then-struggling artists: Robert Indiana\, Ellsworth Kelly\, Agnes Martin\, James Rosenquist\, Delphine Seyrig\, Lenore Tawney\, and Jack Youngerman. For just over a decade\, this street of dilapidated sail-making lofts and maritime warehouses would serve as the unlikely site of eclectic and influential works of art and spark a singular moment of community and creativity. In the group biography The Slip\, Prudence Peiffer pays homage to the locale that inspired this singular group of artists and changed the course of American art. This talk will explore the long history of one of the oldest streets in New York\, the work that these artists made at the Slip from the wreckage of the city’s many former lives\, and how we are shaped by our environment and how it in turn shapes our work. \nPrudence Peiffer is an art historian\, writer\, and editor\, specializing in modern and contemporary art. She is Director of Content at MoMA\, New York. She received her PhD from Harvard University. Following a postdoctoral fellowship at Columbia University\, she was a Senior Editor at Artforum magazine from 2012-2017\, and Digital Content Director at David Zwirner in 2018. Her writing has appeared in the New York Times\, New York Review of Books\, Artforum\, and Bookforum\, among other publications. Her book THE SLIP: The New York City Street That Changed American Art Foreverwas longlisted for the National Book Award. \n  Save

SUMMARY:Film Screening and Q & A: Two Poets and a River
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening of the documentary film Two Poets and a River. Using the Oxus river as a topos\, this film explores themes of love and loss through the lives and musical poetry of two Wakhi musicians\, Qurbonsho in Tajikistan and Daulatsho in Afghanistan. These two poet-singers share a common language and culture and yet remain separated by vicissitudes of the 19th-centuray Great Game in Central Asia. In this struggle for strategic control\, the Wakhan homeland of the Wakhi people became a buffer zone between Czarist Russia and the British Empire. The river Oxus\, which became the border\, ran right through its center. After the modern nation states of the U.S.S.R. and Afghanistan shored up their boundaries around 1930\, the communities living along one side of the river were severed from their counterparts on the other side. The condition of being separated by a river in the region has been the basis for poetry about the feeling of separation (Persian firāq) and grounds the poets’ discussions of love and loss in their own lives as well as in their musical arts. Richard Wolf shot and produced the film over two and a half years (over the period from 2012 to 2020) with the editorial collaboration of Qurbonsho and Daulatsho. \nFollowing the screening\, there will be time for questions for Richard K. Wolf\, Harvard professor and the film’s director\, and Afghan musician Dawood Pazhman\, whose work is drawn upon for the related Harvard course\, Music and Politics in Afghanistan and Central Asia (Music 194R). \nAbout this film:\nTwo Poets and a River\, 2021 (Documentary Educational Resources; Wakhi\, Tajik\, and Dari with English subtitles; 105 min.) \nSpeakers:\nRichard K. Wolf\, Professor of Music and of South Asian Studies\, Harvard University\, Film Director\nDawood Pazhman\, Artist-in-Residence\, Department of Music\, Harvard University \nDuring regular museum hours (10am–5pm\, Tuesday through Sunday)\, guests are invited to visit the museums’ water-themed installations on Level 2\, in galleries 2550 and 2590. \nFree admission\, but seating is limited and available on a first-come\, first-served basis. \nThe screening will take place in Menschel Hall\, Lower Level.

SUMMARY:Gallery Talk: Why Pablo Picasso’s Guernica and Questions of War Matter Today
DESCRIPTION:Harvard professor Suzanne Preston Blier will discuss Pablo Picasso’s engagement with warfare and revolution\, as she examines works on display in the installation Picasso: War\, Combat\, and Revolution (University Teaching Gallery\, January 20–May 5\, 2024). The installation complements Blier’s course on Worlds Fairs. \nPicasso’s painting Guernica\, commissioned by the Spanish government for the 1937 Paris World’s Fair\, addresses the devastating Fascist-era aerial bombing of the Basque town of Guernica on April 26\, 1937. More broadly\, the painting confronts the horrors of war. The works on view explore many of Guernica’s core themes—imagery of death\, struggles of good and evil\, political and artistic revolution\, and issues of desire and capture—which remain relevant today as war\, violence\, and fascism engulf key parts of the world. \nLed by:\nSuzanne Preston Blier\, Allen Whitehill Clowes Professor of Fine Arts and of African and African American Studies\, Harvard University \nPlease meet in the Calderwood Courtyard\, in front of the digital screens between the shop and the admissions desk. \nThe Harvard Art Museums are now offering free admission every day\, Tuesday through Sunday.

SUMMARY:Esmé Thompson: Recent Paintings
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Dates: March 26 – April 20\, 2024 \nOpening Reception: Thurs\, March 28\, 2024\, 5PM-8PM \nClosing Salon: Sat\, April 20\, 3PM-5PM\, featuring an artist talk by Esmé Thompson\, a reading by Jen Stock\, and music by Molly Thompson and ensemble \n  \nBowery Gallery is pleased to present the latest evolution of painted\, shaped\, and layered panels by Esmé Thompson.  Grouped in lively rapport on gallery walls\, the exhibition is a thoughtfully choreographed dance of color and design.  Surprising intersections and overlaps intrigue the eye from afar\, while varying surfaces invite closer inspection.  From any distance and at any scale\, Thompson’s alchemy of design\, pattern\, and color reveals itself like layers of treasure\, animated throughout by energy and invention. \n  \nThe visual vocabulary of this work feels both historically familiar yet contemporary.  Its abstraction is universal\, while its touch and sources are distinctly personal.  Thompson develops beautifully intricate color relationships without losing her exuberance of spirit.  Moments of delicate balance are interrupted by vigorous squiggle\, solid surfaces are punctuated by open air\, and complex relationships of two-and three-dimensional space are relieved by a dash of whimsy. Structure and impulse complement each other\, guided by a disciplined eye and demanding intent.  \n  \nThompson says:  \n“I have designed this new body of work to have a topography of stacked wooden shapes that weave and wind\, connecting and disconnecting throughout and implying natural forces both large and small.  Whether it be the shifting tides or winds found in nature (Coriolis)\, or the unfolding of a flower (Helianthus)\, the paintings are intended to animate and move across the wall\, interacting with each other.  I seek to make paintings that blur the boundaries between high and low art and celebrate objects people have made throughout time and across cultures.  My work represents possibility and embodies change. The repeated\, interrelated images are meant to allow for a cyclical and cumulative\, rather than linear\, reading.  The experience of viewing the painting becomes a journey that continues to unfold\, reminiscent of an ongoing pattern of organic growth.”  \nThompson’s travels inform and enliven her art.  She has been a resident of the Rockefeller Foundation and the Bogliasco Foundation in Italy studying medieval painting and decorative arts.  She has travelled to Morocco to study ceramic and fiber art\, Ireland to study Celtic manuscripts and lacemaking and Australia to view aboriginal art in Kakadu and Uluru. Thompson lives in New Hampshire and is Emeritus Professor of Studio Art at Dartmouth College.      \n  \nImage: Blue Streak\, acrylic on wood\, 53″ x 116″\, 2023 \n  Save

This event is free and open to the public and parking is free.  The exhibits continue through April 20th except for Wendy van Boxtel’s exhibit which ends on April 9th.  Check our website for specifics for each NCECA exhibit. \nEmerging by Wendy van Boxtel \nWendy van Boxtel loves playing with depth perception\, using continuous patterns and lines alongside sculptural components that seem to emerge right out of the wall and evoke different emotions in different people. Combining painted optical illusions with sculptural elements\, her art goes beyond traditional installations\, physically and visually extending the boundaries of art. So be prepared to question what you see with your own eyes when engaging with Wendy van Boxtel’s art. \n  \nAs a child in the Netherlands\, besides drawing\, she was fascinated by how the brain has “its own mind” and can be tricked\, or better\, seduced by the art of illusions. Looking for a fresh start and making some dreams come true\, she took the difficult decision to leave family and friends behind and start the new millennium in the US. With a BA degree in Activity Counseling\, she explored various aspects of art and worked as an art facilitator with children who have special needs\, designed juvenile lighting\, and worked as a graphic artist for several years. \n  \nWith roots in two different countries\, two different cultures\, often makes Wendy feel like Alice in Wonderland. There is freedom\, longing\, and a constant search for balance between two worlds. This feeds the blazing fire of her creativity. The layers in her work often surprise her. Humor is the key to unlocking the emotions which hide in the shadows of the illusion of her art; empathy\, compassion\, and being yourself. \n  \n“Luctor et emergo  is what we say in The Netherlands when we talk about the constant battle with the sea\, meaning I struggle and emerge. Sometimes I wonder if that is a theme in my art but at other times\, like Alice\, I think\, it’s no use going back to yesterday\, because I was a different person then.” \n  \nToday\, Wendy lives in Richmond\, VA\, with her family of seven.  She says\, “…once they (her art) are out in this world\, out in the open\, I start to see what they mean to me. But then\, someone else looks at them and a new meaning is born. Something\, I think\, is wonderful and inspires me to continue this artistic journey that brings me closer to unknown horizons and beyond.” This exhibit will be in the Jane Sandelin Gallery and continues through April 7\, 2024. \n  \nIntersection X Redirection curated by Max Trumpower  \nMax Trumpower curator of this exhibit explains: \nFor centuries\, craft and culture have converged not only in the process of making\, but have expanded into the realm of fine art. At this intersection\, BIPOC and queer makers have radicalized the creation of ceramic objects and produced astounding results as a display of identity. Intersection X Redirection is a collection of such artists\, who utilize craft as a reflection not only of culture\, but of how these identities often intersect.  \n  \nThis coalescence of identities within ceramic craft creates imperishable community bonds and reinforces the importance of solidarity in our field.  \n  \nEach artist in this exhibition explores their identity through the narrative of sculpture. The artists in this exhibit each have their own influences\, techniques\, and concepts that inform their work. Each artist holds unique validity in their influences\, making techniques\, and concepts regardless of work directly relating to identity or not.  \n  \nIt is impertinent in our field to acknowledge and enliven such work for the sake of this work itself\, rather than solely for its tokenization. Through this collective making by BIPOC and queer communities\, the field of ceramics is undergoing a revolution of reclamation. Despite coming from a variety of backgrounds\, the work represented in this exhibition collides seamlessly through the concurrence of our existences and experiences.  \n  \nAs a material\, clay holds memory of not only the maker\, but the history of a culture. Throughout centuries\, we have learned a myriad of information simply from the ceramic objects that were left behind\, as evidence and a testament to civilization. These ceramic objects act as a connection point between various cultures\, merging ideas between communities that might not otherwise have intersected with one another. By utilizing this material\, the artists within this exhibition are attesting to the resilience of their respective identities and serve as a reminder to the larger art community of our permanence.  \n  \nThe sculptural objects represented in this exhibition will outlive us all\, whether as complete forms or as mere shards. Regardless\, the message remains the same: we are not going anywhere. The exhibit will be in the Port Gallery from March 19th through April 23rd\, 2024. \nMeet Me at the Intersection curated by Chantel Bollinger \nThe artists in Meet Me at the Intersection demonstrate finding community in material and storytelling through ceramics. \n  \nMany artists find themselves at a crossroads of materiality and identity. The artists in this exhibit express their lived experiences and the various communities from which they come. What does it mean to be an artist and exist between the margins of multiple identities? This exhibition explores this question through ceramics and the response is a coalescence of many into the whole\, the building of many to stand as one\, The exhibit approaches intersectionality politically\, personally\, and collectively. Meet Me at the Intersection is a deep dive into those many.  The exhibit will be in the Centre Gallery from March 19th through April 20th. \n  \nCurator: Chantel Bollinger is the curator of Meet Me at the Intersection. As a ceramic maker Bollinger is interested in the ways artists from marginalized backgrounds put themselves into their work whether intentionally or otherwise. This exhibit speaks to the ways in which people with intersecting identities use clay to share their unique perspectives and stories. \n  \nContributing artists: Cal Duran\, Vincent Frimpong\, Esther Elia\, Cesar Pita\, Cortney YellowHorse-Metzger\, Jessica Marie Gross\, Margarita Paz-Pedro\, Harley Torres\, Kwakye Oppong Asamoah\, Eleanor Heimbaugh\, Juana Estrada Hernandez\, Chantel Bollinger. \n  \nBeing Bridges curated by Devishi Seth \nDevishi Seth\, curator of this exhibit\, brings together six young artists from diverse backgrounds and explores the interconnection between spirituality and clay—how a state of aliveness is experienced through clay while transforming relationships within oneself.  Devishi Seth explains: \nBridging different human experiences\, clay connects us to one another. Our bodies molded\, through clay\, act as an extension of the Earth. Becoming a mediator that bridges us to the spirit underlying all phenomenon. Being Bridges expands on the duality of ceramic and human bodies.  \n  \nAs clay brings us together\, we use this material to become a bridge for society and to produce a meaningful future. Through ceramic vessels\, we can simultaneously reflect and shape our reality through our fingertips. The desire to create with this malleable medium is present across time\, across cultures\, and across ideologies.  \n  \nIn this exhibit\, some works reference specific cultural iconographies\, while others use a language of their own. Some pieces revisit personal history\, while others use shared experiences. Some are cast from real objects\, while others are sculpted from the imagination. Displaying varying subject matter and aesthetic sensibilities\, they are connected in their reach. They all serve as metaphorical and literal bridges to connect us with energies outside of ourselves. Through its curation\, Being Bridges celebrates the infinite ways in which this amorphous material is used to bridge this everlasting expanse.   \n  \nThe NCECA 2024 conference theme\, Coalescence\, plays an important role in Being Bridges as it taps into the power clay has\, how it shapes us\, and our desires to create. How it becomes a spiritual extension of oneself\, affecting every particle of our bodies. This exhibit will be in the Corner Gallery from March 19th through April 23\, 2024. \nArtists: Malak Kaki\, Devishi Seth\, Tao Tao\, Eve van Rens\, Jeremy Wong\, Luqing Zhang. \nManic Ceramic  \nFor the arrival of the NCECA Conference in Richmond this month\, we reserved Gallery 201 for a clay exhibit by talented local ceramic artists and potters. Lee Hazelgrove\, master ceramic artist and potter is the juror for the exhibit. The exhibit is in Gallery 201. \n  \nThis extended show will be on display from February 23 through April 20\, 2024. There are cash prizes. \n  \nClick here to submit your entries. NCECA: National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts. \n  \n  \nRECYCLE ALL MEDIA ART SHOW  \nThe Recycle All Media Show is an annual commentary on awareness of waste and the disregard of the human impact on the planet. Artists make use of materials found and recovered from various states and locations. They recycle\, upcycle and repurpose these objects for this exhibit with hope that viewers take notice of our excessiveness as humans and move forward with change. \nThis is a juried show with cash prizes for 1st\, 2nd and 3rd place. The show is open to all artists and all mediums. Any medium is acceptable as long as recycled attributes are included.

SUMMARY:Charles C. Eldredge Prize Lecture with Caitlin Meehye Beach
DESCRIPTION:Join art historian Caitlin Meehye Beach for the Eldredge Prize lecture “Sculpted Bodies and the Matter of Racial Capitalism.” She is the 2023 recipient of the Eldredge Prize\, which annually recognizes originality and thoroughness of research and excellence in writing\, for her book Sculpture at the Ends of Slavery. Beach explores the intersections between the economic wealth generated by enslavement and the materials\, production and circulation of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century sculpture. She also highlights the artists’ role in reproducing anti-Blackness even as they professed anti-slavery politics. In her lecture\, Beach will use her book as a starting point to discuss sculpture’s relationship to ideas about race and the human body in nineteenth-century art and material culture. \nBeach is an assistant professor of art history\, affiliated faculty in African American Studies at Fordham University\, and co-director of Fordham’s Asian American studies program. \nThe lecture will be held in person and online; registration is required. \nFree | Registration required \nIn-person | Smithsonian American Art Museum \nMcEvoy Auditorium \n  Save
