SUMMARY:David Goldblatt: No Ulterior Motive
DESCRIPTION:David Goldblatt: No Ulterior Motive is a major traveling retrospective exhibition that spans the seven decades of this South African photographer’s career\, from the 1950s to the 2010s\, demonstrating Goldblatt’s commitment to showing the realities of daily life in his country. The exhibition and accompanying publication bring together roughly 150 works by Goldblatt from the collections of the Yale University Art Gallery and the Art Institute of Chicago—two major Goldblatt repositories—including his early black-and-white photography and his post-apartheid\, large-format color photography. Also included in the exhibition are photographs by some of Goldblatt’s contemporaries\, such as Josef Koudelka and Shomei Tomatsu\, as well as fellow South Africans Lebohang Kganye\, Jo Ractliffe\, and Zanele Muholi\, placing Goldblatt within a global and intergenerational network of photographers. This ambitious project honors the life and career of an artist who used his work to celebrate his country’s working-class people\, the landscape\, and the built environment.

SUMMARY:The Dance of Life: Figure and Imagination in American Art\, 1876–1917
DESCRIPTION:In an era of sweeping change following the devastation of the Civil War\, an ambitious generation of American artists adopted the human figure as their focus. Showcasing more than one hundred studies related to major commissions for the Boston Public Library\, Library of Congress\, Pennsylvania State Capitol\, and other civic institutions\, The Dance of Life explores the American Renaissance\, a pivotal yet neglected period in American art. More than the final murals and monuments—executed mostly by assistants—these expressions of ideas in formation show the artists in dialogue with the urgent questions of their time. On view are intimate pencil sketches\, sensuous pastels\, dynamic bronzes\, and virtuosic oil studies by Edwin Austin Abbey\, Edwin Blashfield\, Daniel Chester French\, Violet Oakley\, Augustus Saint-Gaudens\, and John Singer Sargent—celebrated artists then and now. Displayed alongside are works by talents deserving of more attention\, including Meta Warrick Fuller\, Evelyn Longman\, Gari Melchers\, and Abbott Thayer. Featuring vibrant artworks rarely seen in public\, the exhibition reveals how artists shaped their visions\, learned from one another\, and developed a visual language that captivated a divided nation. \nRead more about the exhibition in the spring 2024 magazine (PDF).

SUMMARY:Year of the Dragon
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition celebrates 2024\, the Year of the Dragon\, with a presentation of nearly 30 artworks spanning from the 17th century to the present day. In the West\, the dragon has historically been characterized as an evil creature\, flying through the air while breathing fire from its mouth\, but in the East\, the dragon is believed to possess power in the celestial realm and to pour out blessings in the form of rainwater over swirling wind. The dragon also has a place in the Eastern zodiac calendar—alongside 11 other animals\, such as the rabbit\, snake\, and tiger—in which each year is associated with an animal and its reputed attributes. The objects on view\, which are largely drawn from the collection of the Yale University Art Gallery\, feature dragons emerging from the clouds painted on folding screens\, other paintings\, textiles\, ceramics\, ivory\, and woodblock prints. Taking inspiration from East Asian history\, folklore\, and myth\, these works demonstrate a long\, complex\, and continuing artistic tradition around this fantastical creature.

SUMMARY:Year of the Dragon
DESCRIPTION:A celebration of the dragon across media from the past 500 years\, coinciding with the 2024 Chinese Lunar New Year  \nMarch 15–November 10\, 2024 \nThe Yale University Art Gallery is pleased to present Year of the Dragon\, an exhibition coinciding with the 2024 Chinese Lunar New Year that celebrates this mythical beast through nearly 30 artworks spanning from the 17th century to the present day. In the West\, the dragon has historically been characterized as an evil creature\, flying through the air while breathing fire from its mouth\, but in the East\, the dragon is believed to possess power in the celestial realm and to pour out blessings in the form of rainwater over swirling wind. The dragon also has a place in the Eastern zodiac calendar—alongside 11 other animals\, such as the rabbit\, snake\, and tiger—in which each year is associated with an animal and its reputed attributes. The objects on view\, which are largely drawn from the collection of the Yale University Art Gallery\, feature dragons on folding screens\, other paintings\, textiles\, ceramics\, ivory\, and woodblock prints. Other works\, such as Katsushika Hokusai’s well-known woodcut The Great Wave (ca. 1831)\, feature the wind and water elements that are often associated with the dragon. This object\, along with the other light-sensitive works in Year of the Dragon\, will be replaced with a new selection in July 2024\, offering repeat visitors a new experience of the exhibition. Taking inspiration from East Asian history\, folklore\, and myth\, Year of the Dragon demonstrates a long\, complex\, and continuing artistic tradition around this fantastical creature.

SUMMARY:Munch and Kirchner: Anxiety and Expression
DESCRIPTION:Featuring more than 60 works on paper\, this exhibition is the first to examine the prints of Edvard Munch alongside those of Ernst Ludwig Kirchner\, elucidating the fascinating overlaps in their creative output and personal biographies and demonstrating how these artists suffered from—and attempted to cope with—the anxieties of their age. Both Munch and Kirchner were experimental printmakers who exploited the perceptual and emotional power of color and abstraction for creative expression and portrayed what they perceived to be a fragmented\, harrowing reality. Responding to feelings of growing nationalism in Northern Europe\, the onset of World War I\, and the rise of the Nazi regime\, both artists experienced existential crises\, endured bouts of depression\, grappled with substance abuse\, and received psychiatric care. Nevertheless\, they continued to produce works of art that demonstrated their radical visions of the modern world and that often echoed the state of their mental and physical health. Drawing primarily on a large group of prints in the collection of Nelson Blitz\, Jr.\, and Catherine Woodard\, as well as the Gallery’s own substantial holdings of German Expressionist works on paper and other U.S. museum collections\, this exhibition brings into focus the parallels between these two towering figures of Expressionism\, highlighting their engagement with themes of anxiety\, modernity\, psychology and psychiatry\, depression\, and trauma.

SUMMARY:Sheila Levrant de Bretteville: Community\, Activism\, and Design
DESCRIPTION:Sheila Levrant de Bretteville: Community\, Activism\, and Design is the first monographic exhibition on this renowned graphic designer\, public artist\, and educator\, whose community-based and politically responsive work champions principles of advocacy and inclusion. De Bretteville (b. 1940\, B.F.A. 1963\, M.F.A. 1964) is well known for her important and early contributions to the field of feminist design and education; in 1973\, with the artist Judy Chicago and the art historian and critic Arlene Raven\, de Bretteville established the Woman’s Building and the Feminist Studio Workshop—the first independent art school for women and women’s culture—in downtown Los Angeles. This exhibition presents a rich array of materials drawn from the artist’s extensive archive to highlight pivotal moments in her multifaceted and trailblazing career. On view are dynamic and rarely seen promotional materials that de Bretteville made for Yale University Press and the Italian manufacturer Olivetti shortly after she graduated from the Yale School of Art; posters and broadsheets produced while she was living in Los Angeles that blend word and image to advance woman-focused initiatives\, many of which have become icons of feminist design; and photographs and models of her public art installations\, which reflect her ongoing commitment to the feminist movement and issues such as immigration and racial equity. Representing a shift in scale and focus from the printed page to the urban environment\, these public projects\, which have not been closely examined as a group until now\, include “Biddy Mason: Time and Place” (Los Angeles\, 1989–90)\, an expansive sculptural mural honoring a formerly enslaved midwife made in collaboration with the artist Betye Saar\, and “Hillhouse” (New Haven\, Connecticut\, 2003)\, the revitalization of the entrance to a local high school. De Bretteville’s accomplishments continue to have lasting effects: In 1990 she was named director of graduate studies in graphic design at Yale and became the first woman at the Yale School of Art to be awarded tenure. Her vision has shaped a new generation of graphic design.

SUMMARY:Mickalene Thomas / Portrait of an Unlikely Space
DESCRIPTION:Mickalene Thomas (b. 1971\, M.F.A. 2002) has gained an international reputation for her dazzling paintings and photographs of Black women posed in lushly decorated interiors\, as well as for her similarly styled\, immersive installations. In Mickalene Thomas / Portrait of an Unlikely Space\, the artist designs an entirely new multigallery installation\, imagining domestic surroundings reminiscent of a moment in U.S. history that has never before been so explicitly represented in her work: the pre-Emancipation era. Coorganized by Thomas\, the exhibition features a selection of early American portraits of Black women\, men\, and children—from miniatures and daguerreotypes to silhouettes on paper and engravings in books—hanging on walls\, standing within cases\, and resting atop furniture. Alongside these small-scale objects\, a group of artworks by Thomas and other contemporary artists in a wide array of media are also situated within her signature homelike environment\, which is adorned with period-specific textile patterns and other decorative elements. The exhibition’s living-room design elicits reflection on not only the settings in which such 18th- and 19th-century portraits would originally have been encountered but also the intimate subject matter explored in the contemporary works on view. With her unique\, multifaceted approach\, Thomas constructs an evocative space that is meant to engender a sense of community—for the individuals depicted in the historical objects\, the artists whose work is represented in the show\, and the visitors engaging with both the past and the present.

SUMMARY:In a New Light: Paintings from the Yale Center for British Art
DESCRIPTION:In a New Light: Paintings from the Yale Center for British Art presents a selection of YCBA artworks in the Yale University Art Gallery’s Louis Kahn building while the YCBA’s own iconic Kahn building is closed for its next phase of conservation. The nearly sixty works on view span four centuries of British landscape and portraiture traditions. Highlights include Joseph Mallord William Turner’s Dort or Dordrecht: The Dort Packet-Boat from Rotterdam Becalmed (1818); several of John Constable’s atmospheric Cloud Studies (1821–25); James McNeill Whistler’s Nocturne in Blue and Silver (1872–78); and Francis Bacon’s Study of a Head (1952). The exhibition offers a rare opportunity to see these and other artworks from the YCBA’s collection in a new setting\, yet one that—like the YCBA itself—displays the notable elements of Kahn’s simple but elegant museum architecture: basic geometric forms\, natural materials in muted palettes\, and galler­ies filled with diffuse daylight.

SUMMARY:Thinking Small: Dutch Art to Scale
DESCRIPTION:Thinking Small: Dutch Art to Scale explores an intriguing selection of objects from the 17th-century Netherlands that were designed to elicit slow\, intimate\, and contemplative engagement on the part of their original audiences. This student-curated exhibition features small-scale works in various media drawn from the rich holdings of the Yale University Art Gallery and other collections across campus\, as well as the Center for Netherlandish Art at the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston\, and a private collection. Amid the global expansion of Dutch commerce in this period\, diagrams and maps miniaturized large geographic areas\, and botanical books bore witness to their makers’ meticulous study of the natural world. Paintings filled with minute details enticed viewers to move close and scrutinize the image\, while medals that were meant to be held in the hand served as cherished commemorative tokens. In their size or intricacy\, the objects in Thinking Small compel viewers to reconsider their relationship to the world around them.

SUMMARY:Crafting Worldviews: Art and Science in Europe\, 1500–1800
DESCRIPTION:Crafting Worldviews: Art and Science in Europe\, 1500–1800 examines the inseparable relationship among art\, science\, and European colonialism from the 16th through the 18th century—an era of voyage\, trade\, and Europe’s territorial dominance on a global scale. The objects featured in this multidisciplinary exhibition cross the modern-day boundaries of art and science and range from the everyday\, such as books\, maps\, globes\, drafting tools\, microscopes\, playing cards\, and sundials\, to the more unusual\, such as a hand-cranked model of the solar system\, an automaton clock\, and anatomical figures carved in ivory. Drawn from across the University’s campus and crafted from both locally and globally obtained materials\, including brass\, ivory\, mahogany\, and ebony\, the works featured are remarkable not just for their exquisite design but also their intricate construction. Together\, they illuminate the critical role that art and science have played in shaping Europeans’ understanding of the world and their place within it.

SUMMARY:Fazal Sheikh: Exposures
DESCRIPTION:Fazal Sheikh (born 1965) has spent his career photographing individuals and communities displaced by conflict and environmental change. Acclaimed for his intimate portraits\, Sheikh collaborates closely with his subjects to better understand and share their stories. This exhibition features Sheikh’s newest body of work\, Exposure (2017–22)\, as well as an earlier series\, Erasure (2010–15). To make Exposure\, set in the American Southwest\, Sheikh worked closely with the Utah Diné Bikéyah Native American grassroots organization to examine the human and environmental costs of the exploitation of public lands. The expansive landscapes seen in the series pay homage to the spiritual significance of the land\, while portraits and collected testimonies reveal the ongoing but often invisible effects of environmental racism\, especially on Indigenous inhabitants. In Erasure\, Sheikh presents aerial photographs that record the effects of cultivation\, displacement\, and climate change on the Negev Desert in southern Israel; the series also includes poignant portraits that put a human face to the struggle of Palestinian Bedouins to remain in villages slated for demolition.

SUMMARY:Bámigbóyè: A Master Sculptor of the Yorùbá Tradition
DESCRIPTION:Bámigbóyè: A Master Sculptor of the Yorùbá Tradition is the first exhibition dedicated to the workshop of the Nigerian artist Moshood Olúṣọmọ Bámigbóyè (ca. 1885–1975). Part of a generation of Yorùbá woodcarvers with flourishing workshops in southwestern Nigeria\, Bámigbóyè was highly regarded for the masks that he made in the 1920s and 1930s for ceremonies called Ẹpa. Today\, these masks are considered some of the most spectacular and complex works of Yorùbá art ever created. Drawn from the collections of national and international museums\, including the Yale University Art Gallery and the National Museum in Lagos\, Nigeria\, the masks and other sculptures in the exhibition—such as architectural elements from palaces and shrine complexes and objects made for a European clientele—present a nuanced account of the artist’s 50-year career. A selection of textiles\, beadwork\, metalwork\, and ceramics situates Bámigbóyè’s work within the broader scope of 20th-century Yorùbá creative expression\, while archival images show how his life and workshop practice reflect the artistic\, religious\, and political changes taking place in Nigeria at the time. With video footage of an Ẹpa performance staged by the artist’s family in honor of the exhibition Bámigbóyè: A Master Sculptor of the Yorùbá Tradition celebrates the global legacy of this artist while also underscoring his enduring importance to his community.

SUMMARY:Gold in America: Artistry\, Memory\, Power
DESCRIPTION:For millennia\, gold’s warm glow\, resistance to corrosion\, and rarity have made it a preferred material for objects meant to convey prestige\, authority\, or devotion. Drawing on the Yale University Art Gallery’s extraordinary holdings of American gold and augmented by paintings\, photographs\, and other works of art\, Gold in America: Artistry\, Memory\, Power is the first exhibition since 1963 to survey the role of gold in American art and culture. The exhibition considers a wide range of objects spanning more than 400 years\, such as early colonial betrothal and mourning rings; a sumptuous Gilded Age coffee service by luxury retailer Tiffany and Company; rare coins made from ore mined during the Gold Rush; a pair of elaborate shoe buckles from the late 18th century that speaks to the wealth derived from the slave trade in the Caribbean; and works by contemporary artists who explore the medium’s historical associations as well as the environmental and human costs of its extraction from the earth. With over 70 examples of gold and related material\, Gold in America demonstrates our nation’s longtime fascination with this gleaming metal.

SUMMARY:Midcentury Abstraction: A Closer Look
DESCRIPTION:Midcentury Abstraction: A Closer Look highlights the breadth and variety of practices in abstract art that took place around the middle of the 20th century. The exhibition is inspired by a recent gift to the Yale University Art Gallery from the Friday Foundation honoring the legacy of the late collectors Jane Lang Davis and Richard E. Lang. This important gift includes revelatory works on canvas and paper by the celebrated painters Franz Kline (1910–1962) and Mark Rothko (1903–1970) that show how these artists engaged with both abstraction and representation over the course of their careers. Eschewing the notion that there was a linear shift toward abstraction at midcentury\, the exhibition showcases a group of artists who freely moved in and out of abstraction or blended their radical approaches with traditional subject matter\, such as landscape\, portraiture\, or still life. In addition to Kline and Rothko—best known as Abstract Expressionists—the exhibition includes objects in a variety of media by Lee Bontecou (b. 1931)\, Dorothy Dehner (1901–1994)\, Willem de Kooning (1904–1997)\, George Miyasaki (1935–2013)\, and more. Collectively\, these works present midcentury abstraction as a dynamic process of exploration pursued by artists who were unafraid to break the boundaries of genre\, medium\, or style.

SUMMARY:Recent Acquisitions
DESCRIPTION:On March 13\, 2020\, the Yale University Art Gallery closed its doors to the public in response to an alarming increase of COVID-19 cases being reported across the country. Within a week\, nearly every cultural institution in America had followed suit. A few of these were able to reopen\, cautiously and to a limited number of visitors\, within the year. At the Gallery\, September 2021 marked the beginning of a return to our pre-pandemic ability to share our collections and exhibitions with students and the public. \nThe Gallery was not idle during these 18 months. The generosity of many donors\, coupled with strategic purchases\, brought a greater number and wider range of important works of art into the collection than at nearly any comparable period in our almost 200-year history. This installation brings together a selection of 50 of the more than 1\,000 works accessioned by the Gallery in 2020 and 2021\, while many other recent acquisitions\, from 2019 to 2021\, are on view in the permanent-collection galleries and can be identified by a new icon next to their labels.

SUMMARY:Yale Art Gallery: On the Basis of Art: 150 Years of Women at Yale
DESCRIPTION:On the Basis of Art: 150 Years of Women at Yale showcases and celebrates the remarkable achievements of an impressive roster of women artists who have graduated from Yale University. Presented on the occasion of two major milestones—the 50th anniversary of coeducation at Yale College and the 150th anniversary of the first women students at the University\, who came to study at the Yale School of the Fine Arts when it opened in 1869—the exhibition features works drawn entirely from the collection of the Yale University Art Gallery that span a variety of media\, such as paintings\, sculpture\, drawings\, prints\, photography\, and video. Beginning with Josephine Miles Lewis\, the very first student\, male or female\, to be awarded a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree\, in 1891\, the show highlights the work of nearly 80 artist-graduates\, including Emma Bacon\, Certificate of Completion 1885; Audrey Flack\, B.F.A. 1952; Eva Hesse\, B.F.A. 1959; Sylvia Plimack Mangold\, B.F.A. 1961; Jennifer Bartlett\, B.F.A. 1964\, M.F.A. 1965; Howardena Pindell\, M.F.A. 1967; Roni Horn\, M.F.A. 1978; Maya Lin\, B.A. 1981\, M.ARCH. 1986; An-My Lê\, M.F.A. 1993; Rina Banerjee\, M.F.A. 1995; Wangechi Mutu\, M.F.A. 2000; Mickalene Thomas\, M.F.A. 2002; Mary Reid Kelley\, M.F.A. 2009; Njideka Akunyili Crosby\, M.F.A. 2011; and many others. The title of the exhibition references the phrase used in the landmark 1972 U.S. federal law Title IX—which declared that no one could be discriminated against “on the basis of sex” in any education program receiving federal financial assistance\, and which forced the School of Art to hire full-time female faculty beginning that year. Amid the rise of feminist movements—from women’s suffrage at the turn of the 20th century\, to the ERA movement of the mid-20th century\, to the #MeToo movement of today—this exhibition asserts the crucial role that women have played in pushing creative boundaries at Yale\, and in the art world at large.

SUMMARY:James Prosek: Art\, Artifact\, Artifice
DESCRIPTION:Award-winning artist\, naturalist\, and writer James Prosek (b. 1975\, B.A. 1997) brings his love of the natural world and his lifelong fascination with the naming and classification of nature to the Yale University Art Gallery in James Prosek: Art\, Artifact\, Artifice. The exhibition brings together objects from the collections of the Gallery\, the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History\, and the Yale Center for British Art. It places Prosek’s work in dialogue with a wide range of both man-made objects and those produced by billions of years of evolution\, or what naturalist Charles Darwin described as “endless forms most beautiful.” By challenging traditional separations of museum collections into “art” and “artifact\,” or “natural” and “man-made\,” the artist asks us to explore to what extent these distinctions matter. Is it helpful for us to draw such boundaries? Or do they limit what we are able to see\, substituting categories and classifications for experience? “What would happen\,” Prosek said\, “if we stop putting things into neat categories and simply marvel at the wondrous and complex world of which we are a part?” \n\n\nBook Launch and Reading: “James Prosek: Art\, Artifact\, Artifice.”

SUMMARY:Reckoning with “The Incident”: John Wilson’s Studies for a Lynching Mural
DESCRIPTION:In 1952\, while a student at La Esmeralda—Mexico’s national school of art—American artist John Wilson (1922–2015) painted a powerful mural that he titled The Incident. The fresco depicted a scene of a racial-terror lynching at the hands of the Ku Klux Klan\, as witnessed by a young African American family. Although the mural is no longer extant\, this exhibition brings together publicly for the first time nearly all of Wilson’s known preparatory sketches and painted studies for it\, as well as related prints and drawings. Inspired by the political and social activism of the Mexican muralists\, in particular José Clemente Orozco\, and haunted by images of lynchings that he had seen in newspapers as a child\, Wilson revisited the subject of The Incident over many years as a way of grappling with racial violence\, both past and present. The works on view\, some disturbing in content\, encourage contemporary viewers to do the same.

SUMMARY:Place\, Nations\, Generations\, Beings: 200 Years of Indigenous North American Art
DESCRIPTION:Place\, Nations\, Generations\, Beings: 200 Years of Indigenous North American Art emphasizes a multiplicity of Indigenous voices and experiences through more than 75 artworks dating from the early 19th century to the present. This student-curated exhibition—the first exhibition of Indigenous art to bring together objects from the Yale University Art Gallery\, the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History\, and the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library—showcases basketry\, beadwork\, textiles\, pottery\, drawings\, photography\, and wood carving by prominent artists such as Maria Martinez\, Marie Watt\, and Will Wilson\, among others. Guided by the four themes in its title\, the exhibition investigates the connections that Indigenous peoples have to their lands; the power of objects as expressions of sovereignty; the passing on of artistic practices and traditions; and the relationships that artists and nations have to animals\, plants\, and cosmological beings. The objects on view contribute to the larger narrative of American art and act as touchstones for further partnerships with Indigenous nations. \n\n\n\nExhibition made possible by the Andrew W.

SUMMARY:Ceremonial Dress from Southwest China: The Ann B. Goodman Collection
DESCRIPTION:September 6\, 2019–January 5\, 2020\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDrawn from a recent gift to the Yale University Art Gallery\, this exhibition showcases the technical knowledge\, artistic skill\, and visual imagination on display in the ceremonial clothing of those living in Guizhou\, Sichuan\, Hunan\, Yunnan\, and other provinces of southwestern China. While the Han people make up more than 90 percent of the inhabitants of China\, the individuals who created the textiles on display identify as some of the 55 other groups\, which are distinguished by lifestyle and language. Worn during life-cycle ceremonies such as births\, marriages\, harvest celebrations\, and deaths\, as well as at other significant events\, the clothing on view—including jackets\, skirts\, baby carriers\, hats\, and shoes—is made by the women of each community. They gather the cotton and indigo\, dye the cloth\, sew the garments\, and embellish them with batik\, embroidery\, appliqué\, and other techniques\, blending traditional motifs with personal taste to create unique works of art. In addition to over 15 ensembles\, the exhibition features silver headdress ornaments\, necklaces\, and bracelets produced by men in the same communities and worn as symbols of skill and wealth. \n\n\n\n\nExhibition made possible by the Wolfe Family Exhibition and Publication Fund. Organized by Denise Patry Leidy\, the Ruth and Bruce Dayton Curator of Asian Art\, and Ruth Barnes\, the Thomas Jaffe Curator of Indo-Pacific Art.

SUMMARY:William Bailey: Looking through Time
DESCRIPTION:September 6\, 2019–January 5\, 2020\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis exhibition considers the career of William Bailey (B.F.A. 1955\, M.F.A. 1957)\, the Kingman Brewster Professor Emeritus of Art at Yale\, through a focused survey of the artist’s paintings\, drawings\, and prints. Special emphasis is given to Bailey’s still-life paintings in oil\, including the Yale University Art Gallery’s Still Life—Table with Ochre Wall (1972)\, an outstanding example of the artist’s signature style. Known for his meditative canvases depicting objects and figures painted from memory\, Bailey is one of the artists—including Audrey Flack\, Alex Katz\, and Philip Pearlstein—who defied the prevailing taste for abstraction at midcentury and instead committed themselves to representational painting. Bailey’s artistic inspirations span centuries\, from Raphael and Piero della Francesca to Giorgio de Chirico and Piet Mondrian\, with Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres and Paul Cézanne in between. \n\n\n\nExhibition made possible by the Friends of American Arts at Yale Exhibition Fund and the Jan and Warren Adelson Fund. Organized by Mark D. Mitchell\, the Holcombe T. Green Curator of American Paintings and Sculpture.

SUMMARY:Film Screening\, Redoubt (2018; 134 mins.\, 3 secs.)
DESCRIPTION:At the center of Matthew Barney’s Redoubt project (2016–19) is an eponymous two-hour film (2018; 134 mins.\, 3 secs.) that traces the story of a wolf hunt\, intertwining the theme of the hunt with those of mythology and artistic creation. Redoubt was shot in Idaho’s rugged Sawtooth Mountains and continues Barney’s long-standing preoccupation with landscape as both a setting and subject in his films. Structured as a series of six hunts that unfold over seven days and nights\, the film loosely adapts the myth of Diana\, goddess of the hunt\, and Actaeon\, a hunter who accidentally trespasses on her and is punished. Like most of Barney’s previous films\, Redoubt contains no dialogue; instead\, the characters communicate through choreography that echoes and foreshadows their encounters with wildlife. Presented in conjunction with the exhibition Matthew Barney: Redoubt. Generously sponsored by the Hayden Visiting Artists Fund. \nSpecial Note: Hunting scenes in Redoubt were staged using special effects. Trained animals were provided by professional handlers who monitored their safety and the conditions on set. Wild animals were filmed in their natural habitats.

SUMMARY:Conversation\, Material Conflict: A Conversation with Tomashi Jackson and Naomi Safran-Hon
DESCRIPTION:Tomashi Jackson and Naomi Safran-Hon\n\n\n\n\nThursday\, June 6\, 2019\, 5:30 pm\n\n\n\n\n\nArtists Tomashi Jackson\, M.F.A. 2016\, and Naomi Safran-Hon\, M.F.A. 2010\, incorporate both traditional and nontraditional materials in their artwork to engage in contemporary cultural conflict.
