SUMMARY:Suzanne Chamlin: Studies in Color
DESCRIPTION:In 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 \nChamlin 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. \nFor more about the exhibition\, visit our website here.

SUMMARY:Exhibition Tour: Helen Glazer - Walking in Antarctica
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a tour of this extraordinary exhibition! \nIn 2015\, artist Helen Glazer traveled to Antarctica as a grantee of the National Science Foundation’s Antarctic Artists and Writers Program\, in order to photograph ice and geological formations for eventual production as photographic prints and sculpture. She worked out of remote Antarctic scientific field camps and had access to protected areas that can only be entered with government permits or in the company of a skilled mountaineer. \nInspired and informed by her experiences\, Walking in Antarctica is an immersive\, interdisciplinary exhibition bringing together photography\, sculpture\, and audio narrative to take the viewer on a journey through an extraordinary environment of remote places that the tourist ships do not reach and few people get to witness in person. The exhibition is organized as a series of “walks” through remarkable Antarctic landscapes: over frozen lakes\, around towering glaciers and baroque sea ice formations\, into a magnificent frozen ice cave\, across fields of surreal-looking boulders\, and through a lively colony of nesting Adélie penguins. Visitors to the exhibition who have smartphones will be able to access an audio tour narrated by Glazer\, drawn from a blog in which she recorded her experiences. \nThrough her artwork\, Glazer strives to convey the wonder and complexity of the natural world to others\, in order to motivate a desire to protect and preserve wild places. Her study of earth science over the past several years heightened her awareness of multiple factors shaping the land over time. In recognizing that complex patterns in nature express the particular physical forces at work\, she became more attuned to the interplay between geology\, climate\, life forms\, and human activity in a given location. \nThis project is organized by Mid-America Arts Alliance and is an adaptation of the artist’s solo exhibition of the same title held at the Rosenberg Gallery at Goucher College (Baltimore\, MD) that was funded in part by grants from the Greater Baltimore Cultural Alliance and the Puffin Foundation. Creation of this work was made possible in part by a Rubys Artist Project Grant\, a program of the Greater Baltimore Cultural Alliance conceived and initiated with funding from the Robert W. Deutsch Foundation\, and by a Puffin Foundation Artist Grant.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Long Ago and Far Away:Three “Summers” on a Remote Antarctic Island
DESCRIPTION:Long Ago and Far Away: Three “Summers” on a Remote Antarctic Island \n“One of the most unique experiences in my life – three austral summers on a small island off the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula – opened my eyes and mind to a future in science that would have never emerged without my time on Seal Island.” Brian Walker\, PhD \nBrian Walker\, PhD is Professor of Biology at Fairfield University. He studies how Magellanic penguins (a small species native to South America) respond to stress and changes in their environment. In his lecture\, entitled “Long Ago and Far Away: Three “Summers” on a Remote Antarctic Island\,” Dr. Walker discusses his early career as a graduate student and early-career researcher. \nHis lecture is presented in conjunction with Helen Glazer: Walking in Antarctica (Bellarmine Hall Galleries\, February 2–March 16).

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Helen Glazer: Walking in Antarctica
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate the opening of our new exhibition Helen Glazer: Walking in Antarctica on Thursday\, February 1 from 6-8 p.m.! Get the first glimpse of the exhibition in our Bellarmine Hall Galleries\, and enjoy some wine\, cheese\, and conversation in Bellarmine’s Great Hall. Live music will be provided by Fairfield alum Joe Barbieri. \nThe party starts after the opening lecture\, which will be presented by artist Helen Glazer in the Diffley Board Room. To register for that event\, click here. \nIn 2015\, artist Helen Glazer traveled to Antarctica as a grantee of the National Science Foundation’s Antarctic Artists and Writers Program\, in order to photograph ice and geological formations for eventual production as photographic prints and sculpture. She worked out of remote Antarctic scientific field camps and had access to protected areas that can only be entered with government permits or in the company of a skilled mountaineer. \nInspired and informed by her experiences\, Walking in Antarctica is an immersive\, interdisciplinary exhibition bringing together photography\, sculpture\, and audio narrative to take the viewer on a journey through an extraordinary environment of remote places that the tourist ships do not reach and few people get to witness in person. The exhibition is organized as a series of “walks” through remarkable Antarctic landscapes: over frozen lakes\, around towering glaciers and baroque sea ice formations\, into a magnificent frozen ice cave\, across fields of surreal-looking boulders\, and through a lively colony of nesting Adélie penguins. Visitors to the exhibition who have smartphones will be able to access an audio tour narrated by Glazer\, drawn from a blog in which she recorded her experiences. \nThrough her artwork\, Glazer strives to convey the wonder and complexity of the natural world to others\, in order to motivate a desire to protect and preserve wild places. Her study of earth science over the past several years heightened her awareness of multiple factors shaping the land over time. In recognizing that complex patterns in nature express the particular physical forces at work\, she became more attuned to the interplay between geology\, climate\, life forms\, and human activity in a given location. \nThis project is organized by Mid-America Arts Alliance and is an adaptation of the artist’s solo exhibition of the same title held at the Rosenberg Gallery at Goucher College (Baltimore\, MD) that was funded in part by grants from the Greater Baltimore Cultural Alliance and the Puffin Foundation. Creation of this work was made possible in part by a Rubys Artist Project Grant\, a program of the Greater Baltimore Cultural Alliance conceived and initiated with funding from the Robert W. Deutsch Foundation\, and by a Puffin Foundation Artist Grant. \nFaculty Liaison: Brian Walker\, PhD\, Professor of Biology \nTo learn more about the exhibition\, visit our website here \nHelen Glazer\, Tanguy Ventifact\, Dry Valleys\, Antarctica\, 2015\, archival pigment print. © Helen Glazer

SUMMARY:Exhibition Tour: “In Real Times: Arthur Szyk-Artist and Soldier for Human Rights”
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Bellarmine Hall Galleries for a special tour of the exhibition In Real Times. Arthur Szyk: Artist and Soldier for Human Rights with Michelle DiMarzo\, PhD\, Curator of Education! \nPlease note: This event is in-person only and space is limited.  \nPlease register via https://www.eventbrite.com/e/tour-in-real-times-arthur-szyk-artist-and-soldier-for-human-rights-tickets-631689729987 \n  \nThis event is in conjunction with the exhibition In Real Times. Arthur Szyk: Artist and Soldier for Human Rights\, on view in the Bellarmine Hall Galleries from September 29-December 16\, 2023.  \nDon’t miss Szyk: The Interactive Experience in the Walsh Gallery in the Quick Center for the Arts. \nAbout the exhibition: \nThis special exhibition\, organized around the theme of human rights features more than 50 works by acclaimed Polish Jewish miniaturist and political cartoonist Arthur Szyk (1899-1951)\, including political cartoons\, and images that honor the power and importance of democratic ideals. A witness to the rise of totalitarianism in Europe\, Szyk emigrated from London to America at the beginning of World War II. He lived and worked in Connecticut\, and passed away in New Canaan in 1951. His powerful political cartoons animated the covers of magazines such as Time and Collier’s\, raising awareness of the plight of European Jews and helping sway public opinion toward support for American participation in the Second World War. As a self-described “soldier in art\,” Szyk’s work was acclaimed by First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt as a potent weapon “against Hitlerism.” He advocated for religious tolerance\, racial equality\, and human dignity. Active in the years leading up to World War II and during the Holocaust\, Szyk became one of America’s most celebrated political artists for his powerful artistic and social contributions against Nazism and fascism. As our communities continue to confront issues of structural racism and social upheaval — including the sharp rise in antisemitic rhetoric and violence across the United States— this exhibition provides a platform for conversations on the urgent topics of human rights and social justice. \nhttps://www.fairfield.edu/museum/szyk/ \n  \nImage: Arthur Szyk\, Thomas Jefferson’s Oath\, watercolor\, gouache\, ink\, and colored pencil on board\, 1951\, Taube Family Arthur Szyk Collection\, The Magnes Collection of Jewish Art and Life\, University of California\, Berkeley.

Arthur Szyk: Artist and Soldier for Human Rights\, on view in the Bellarmine Hall Galleries from September 29-December 16\, 2023.  \nDon’t miss Szyk: The Interactive Experience in the Walsh Gallery in the Quick Center for the Arts. \nAbout the exhibition: \nThis special exhibition\, organized around the theme of human rights features more than 50 works by acclaimed Polish Jewish miniaturist and political cartoonist Arthur Szyk (1899-1951)\, including political cartoons\, and images that honor the power and importance of democratic ideals. A witness to the rise of totalitarianism in Europe\, Szyk emigrated from London to America at the beginning of World War II. He lived and worked in Connecticut\, and passed away in New Canaan in 1951. His powerful political cartoons animated the covers of magazines such as Time and Collier’s\, raising awareness of the plight of European Jews and helping sway public opinion toward support for American participation in the Second World War. As a self-described “soldier in art\,” Szyk’s work was acclaimed by First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt as a potent weapon “against Hitlerism.” He advocated for religious tolerance\, racial equality\, and human dignity. Active in the years leading up to World War II and during the Holocaust\, Szyk became one of America’s most celebrated political artists for his powerful artistic and social contributions against Nazism and fascism. As our communities continue to confront issues of structural racism and social upheaval — including the sharp rise in antisemitic rhetoric and violence across the United States— this exhibition provides a platform for conversations on the urgent topics of human rights and social justice. \nhttps://www.fairfield.edu/museum/szyk/ \n  \nImage: Arthur Szyk\, The Haggadah\, Dedication to King George VI (detail)\, 1936.
