SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Dawn & Dusk: Tonalism in Connecticut
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition explores Tonalism in the United States from the 1880s to the early 20th century\, through artists from the Northeast such as George Inness\, John Henry Twachtman\, and John Francis Murphy. Tonalism is a transitional movement that grew out of and reacted to the Hudson River School of painting and laid the groundwork for modernism. Evocative landscapes\, evoking a spiritual connection to the natural world\, often painted from memory\, are the primary genre of this movement. The more than fifty artworks in this exhibition are drawn from private and institutional collections. \nImage: Bruce Crane\, Sunset\, ca. 1890\, oil on canvas. Private Collection\, Connecticut

SUMMARY:Lecture: To See Is to Know: Children of Middle Passage
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, October 8 at 5 p.m.\, Arturo Lindsay\, D.A.\, Artist and Professor Emeritus of the Department of Art and Art History at Spelman College will present a lecture entitled To See Is to Know: Children of Middle Passage. (This event will also be livestreamed on thequicklive.com – click here to register for a reminder!) \nTwo works from the Children of Middle Passage series form part of the exhibition Sacred Space: A Brandywine Workshop and Archives Print Exhibition (Walsh Gallery\, September 27 – December 21\, 2024). For more information on the exhibition\, click here. \nTo see is to know. But how can we know the unseen – the histories\, the stories\, the names of a people that were undocumented or erased? \nArturo Lindsay\, 2010 \nI asked myself that question late one evening as I looked at the sun setting behind the hills on the bay of Portobelo. The view from my studio faces the ruins of a dock that was\, at one time\, the first encounter with tierra firme for many weary\, shackled and enslaved black feet whose journey began months earlier in Africa. \nThe setting sun in Portobelo reflects off the cerulean blue sky and puffy white clouds onto the still waters of the bay producing a rather unique effect of light that seemingly glows from beneath the surface of the water. I wondered that evening … could this light be the souls of the children who perished at sea? \nThe following morning\, I began imagining and imaging the anonymous faces of the children who perished during the middle passage of the trans-Atlantic slave trade. \nSo began my journey to see their faces\, to hear their stories\, their names and their laughter. Through the magical rituals of seeking\, seeing and imaging that we call Art\, I collaborated with poet Opal Moore and jazz musician Joseph Jennings to create a series of prints\, drawings and performance art rituals that provided some answers.” \nThis event is generously co-sponsored by the Arts Institute\, the Departments of Visual and Performing Arts and History\, and the programs in Black Studies and LatinX\, Latin-American and Caribbean Studies. \nImage: Arturo Lindsay\, Umar of Segou\, 2001\, offset lithograph.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception - "Ink and Time" the Wetmore Collection
DESCRIPTION:Join us in the Bellarmine Hall Galleries and Great Hall from 6-8 p.m. for live music and conversation as we celebrate the opening of Ink and Time: European Prints from the Wetmore Collection! \nThis exhibition\, curated by Michelle DiMarzo\, PhD\, presents a group of woodcuts\, engravings\, and etchings from the late 15th through late 18th centuries drawn from the Wetmore Collection at Connecticut College. The collection was assembled in the early 20th century by New London\, CT native Fanny Wetmore\, and bequeathed to the College in 1930. \nAlthough little is known of Wetmore herself\, her collecting activities place her within a tradition dating back to the rise of printmaking in early modern Europe. The surging production of prints by the beginning of the 16th century represented a sea change for both artists and consumers. For artists\, prints provided additional revenue\, increased their personal fame\, and offered greater latitude for experimentation outside the traditional patronage structure. For consumers\, prints represented access to visual art on an unprecedented scale; even those who would never have been able to commission an independent work from a great artist could now readily obtain an engraving or an etching. Prints were easily transported\, could be pasted up on walls or into albums\, and even large collections of them took up relatively little room. And\, with the rise of reproductive printmaking\, even geographically distant or physically inaccessible artworks could be added to the collector’s “paper museum.” \nThis exhibition is the second in the Museum’s history to have been co-curated with Fairfield University students\, and has been supported by generous funding from the Samuel H. Kress Foundation. Learn more at the website here. \nImage: Giovanni Antonio Canal\, called Canaletto\, Market on the Molo\, ca. 1735-46\, etching.

SUMMARY:(Livestream)Opening Night Lecture: "Ink and Time"
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate the opening of Ink and Time: European Prints from the Wetmore Collection on Thursday\, September 26! Exhibition curator Michelle DiMarzo\, PhD\, will present an opening lecture at 5 p.m. in Bellarmine Hall’s Diffley Board Room. This event will be livestreamed on thequicklive.com. \nAbout the Exhibition: This exhibition presents a group of woodcuts\, engravings\, and etchings from the late 15th through late 18th centuries drawn from the Wetmore Collection at Connecticut College. The collection was assembled in the early 20th century by New London\, CT native Fanny Wetmore\, and bequeathed to the College in 1930. \nAlthough little is known of Wetmore herself\, her collecting activities place her within a tradition dating back to the rise of printmaking in early modern Europe. The surging production of prints by the beginning of the 16th century represented a sea change for both artists and consumers. For artists\, prints provided additional revenue\, increased their personal fame\, and offered greater latitude for experimentation outside the traditional patronage structure. For consumers\, prints represented access to visual art on an unprecedented scale; even those who would never have been able to commission an independent work from a great artist could now readily obtain an engraving or an etching. Prints were easily transported\, could be pasted up on walls or into albums\, and even large collections of them took up relatively little room. And\, with the rise of reproductive printmaking\, even geographically distant or physically inaccessible artworks could be added to the collector’s “paper museum.” \nThis exhibition is the second in the Museum’s history to have been co-curated with Fairfield University students\, and has been supported by generous funding from the Samuel H. Kress Foundation. \nLearn more at the website here. \nImage: Rembrandt van Rijn\, Self-Portrait Etching at a Window\, 1648\, etching\, drypoint\, and burin.
