SUMMARY:Franz Kline | Richard Hambleton: Portraits and Shadows
DESCRIPTION:Franz Kline | Richard Hambleton: Portraits and Shadows \nDecember 2024 – March 2025 \nWoodward Gallery at Down Town Association\, 60 Pine Street\, NYC \n  \nThe culmination of Woodward Gallery’s 30th Anniversary year-long celebration is the much anticipated\, two-person exhibition\, featuring “Franz Kline | Richard Hambleton: Portraits and Shadows.” This comparison of work\, though a generation apart\, examines these artistic geniuses with so much in common. Curated by John Woodward\, this exhibition pairs rare\, intimate portraits by Abstract Expressionist Franz Kline (1910 – 1962) with never-before-seen shadow paintings by Conceptual Artist Richard Hambleton (1952 – 2017). The soul of the individual is strongly communicated in both styles. \n  \nKline attended Boston University (1931 – 1935)\,  Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts/PAFA\, (1935 – 1936)\, and the Leeds School of Art in England (1937 – 1938). Kline was a confirmed New Yorker\, but had roots that he never forgot in the gritty Coal Country of Eastern Pennsylvania. He studied at the Boston Art Students League\, which stressed figure drawing. His cartoon drawing was widely popular with faculty and students in High School\, but it was at the League that he mastered his style in character studies. \n  \nArt and beer were compatible for Kline. Often in the 1940s\, in the hopes of earning a few dollars\, he sketched people who\, like himself\, frequented the Cedar Bar and Minetta Tavern in NYC. His character drawings\, like “Nellie\,” done at the Minetta Tavern\, were not distorted as caricatures\, but heightened with Kline’s ability to select the most descriptive features of the sitting subject. \n  \nKline and Hambleton liked to paint at night\, always keeping late hours and sleeping during the daytime. Hambleton worked in darkness from an abandoned gas station (Avenue B and 2nd Street) while Kline found life at the Cedar Bar (24 University Place) and Minetta Tavern (113 MacDougal Street) to form his subjects when these portraits were created. \n  \nRichard Hambleton attended The Vancouver School of Art (later renamed the Emily Carr University of Art and Design) in Vancouver\, Canada (1971 – 1975)\, where he was exposed to a variety of art movements. He relocated to NYC in 1976\, where he lived for the rest of his life. In the early 1980s\, Richard traveled extensively to cities throughout the world\, placing hundreds of shadow figures and engaging the public to observe and accept the fragility of being. While still in school\, he learned an early folk art technique from an old woman in Vancouver\, to quickly cut black paper into a person’s silhouette. This led to the spontaneous Shadow Head Portraits that Richard realized he could paint for barter\, trade\, or quick cash.  \n  \nEach artist gave life to the character subjects in their portraits. Hambleton extracted a person’s kinetic energy by splattering paint\, capturing the personality of the real individual’s shadow. Richard trusted black paint to create the silhouettes that he became known for. Similarly\, Kline was dedicated to revealing beauty through portraiture. Both Kline and Hambleton successfully recorded the personality of their portraits\, but had different methods. Kline would draw his subject in the moment\, whereas Hambleton painted from memory. \n  \nBoth Franz and Richard began their successful art journeys with their first solo exhibitions in NYC— Kline at the Egan Gallery in 1950\, and Hambleton at Alexander Milliken Gallery in 1982. Considered the most prestigious cultural event in the world\, the Venice Biennale featured Kline in 1960\, and Hambleton in 1984. \n  \nKline and Hambleton were serious\, committed artists who both lived under extreme conditions\, sometimes even without food or water. Both artists generally isolated themselves to create\, but were often surrounded by muses. Yes\, Kline and Hambleton had magnetic personalities and were charismatic people\, but used portraiture as a medium to connect— many times\, in order to make money to survive. \n  \nThey never gave up their studios or the harsh conditions of NYC. Each was evicted multiple times for being unable to pay the rent. They continually had to find new space in which to create. Franz rolled newspapers to burn to stay warm in the colder seasons. Richard would maintain heat with a small space heater and a self-customized\, white lab coat. \n  \nIn a fascinating parallel of fate\, both artists within their respective periods\, were each able to befriend the two most influential artists of their times; Kline found Willem de Kooning and Jackson Pollock in the 1940s\, and Hambleton found Jean-Michel Basquiat and Keith Haring in the 1980s. Both artistic trios were successfully recognized in NYC and eventually\, worldwide. The 20th-century art patrons\, and founders of the Museum of Modern Art\, the Rockefellers purchased art from both Kline and Hambleton. Blanchett Ferry Rockefeller bought “Chief\,” named after a locomotive inspired by Kline’s childhood\, in 1952. David Rockefeller bought “Julia\,” named after the Woodward Gallery owners’ only daughter\, who was a child at the time\, in 2013. \n  \nIn 1959\, American photographer\, Irving Penn\, captured a group of invited artists\, including Franz Kline\, for “The New American Painting” exhibition at the MoMA\, NY. Later\, in 1984\, Timothy Greenfield-Sanders staged a nearly-identical photograph of the then-current artists\, “The New Irascibles\,” including Richard Hambleton\, for Arts Magazine and Art Forum. \n  \nAfter the end of their lives\, each artist was honored with a featured obituary in the New York Times: Franz Kline on May 15\, 1962\, and Richard Hambleton on November 4th\, 2017. Despite their differing eras\, both artists are now considered iconic figures of 20th-century American art. \n  \nThe presentation of works in “Franz Kline | Richard Hambleton: Portraits and Shadows” elucidates how each artist gave life to their portraits\, successfully recording the character of their subjects\, through observation and memory. \n  \nWoodward Gallery’s “Franz Kline | Richard Hambleton: Portraits and Shadows” exhibition is on view\, by appointment\, at 60 Pine Street\, at WoodwardGallery.net\, on Artsy.net\, and as a virtual Artsy Viewing Room. A digital catalogue will be published to coincide with this exhibition. Additionally\, this exhibition will travel to museums\, with locations to be announced. \n

The exhibition will be held from September to October 2024 at Woodward Gallery’s exhibition space at 60 Pine Street\, The Down Town Association\, NYC. \nVal Kilmer’s contributions to the exhibition showcase his distinctive style of gestural abstractions\, which is deeply inspired by the natural world. Renowned for his iconic film roles\, Kilmer imbues his abstract paintings with a contemporary allure\, often employing metal instead of traditional wood. Similarly to the gravitational pull of a black hole\, Kilmer’s artworks beckon viewers into expansive\, infinite spaces\, inviting contemplation of depth and meaning. \n“Hiro Ichikawa’s oil paintings\,” remarked gallery owner John Woodward\, “reflect a serene fusion of delicate brushwork and vibrant earth tones.” Crafted on birch panels\, Ichikawa’s compositions draw inspiration from satellite imagery and human migration patterns\, offering a spiritual journey through luminescent colors and meticulous dotting techniques. His art captures the interconnectedness of natural and spiritual realms\, inviting viewers to explore the profound beauty of the world around us. \n“Spirit World Biology” celebrates the artistic brilliance of both Kilmer and Ichikawa\, offering a transformative sanctuary for introspection and exploration. This exhibition promises to captivate art enthusiasts and collectors alike\, presenting a profound exploration of unseen dimensions through the eyes of two masterful artists. \nPlease visit us\, in-person\, by appointment at our 60 Pine Street location\, online at WoodwardGallery.net\, and through a virtual Exhibition Viewing Room on ARTSY.net.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: 12 in 24
DESCRIPTION:12 in 24 \nGroup Exhibition\nWoodward Gallery \n60 Pine Street\, NYC at the Down Town Association\nOpening Reception: May 16\, 6-8pm\nOn view: April – July 2024 \nWoodward Gallery presents 12 in 24\, a powerful selection of work by 12 artists\, in the year 2024. For the first time\, this respected group will be exhibited together\, at the Down Town Association (60 Pine Street\, NYC). On a clockface\, there are 12 numbers\, with a total of 24 hours in a day. Through painting\, collage\, and sculpture\, the temporal pattern that unites these artworks together is how each Artist\, during a particular moment in their lives\, developed their art. By encouraging viewers to further examine their creations\, up close\, each of the 12 Artists reveal a hidden message for the curious to find. \nBy 1985\, Richard Hambleton found creative control of the weather with this magnificent\, fiery-red sunset\, over a stormy seascape. From his studio window\, he envisioned rain on a canvas\, developing a new painting technique to make weather last forever. \nSwedish Artist and comedian\, Peter Apelgren\, reveals his wit by the early 1990s. He satires a figure\, all alone at a wedding\, in a tropical location. \nIn the mid-1990s\, Dupont and Medvedz produced an exquisite corpse\, starting with a tapestry design of scenery\, leading to signal fires\, emanating from a village of homes and hope\, in one area\, with a radiant sun. This could be Anywhere. \nEarly in his art career\, Robert Medvedz combined design elements for the viewer to invent a narrative of their own\, from his relationship of painted symbols and collage.  \nSusan Breen initiated a series of work in 2007\, focusing on the universal need to heal and a visual representation of what that could look like. Influenced by Mandalic symbology\, botany\, physics\, Eastern philosophy\, and medicine\, her oil paintings encourage possibility and optimism\, where neither comes too freely. \nIn the late 2000s\, Robert Indiana wanted to encourage the next generation to stay strong in the face of the global challenges ahead. The word\, “HOPE\,” was a symbolic catalyst for change. With its forward-leaning “O\,” the word\, “HOPE\,” represents perseverance and pushing ahead toward a brighter future.  \nSabina Forbes II was inspired by the vitality\, development\, and the habitat of New York City life. Her combination of vivid color\, intricate patterns\, and dynamic texture evokes the endurance of positivity. \nIn 2016\, for muralist BK Foxx’s first solo gallery exhibition\, she painted a swan\, floating across the canvas with its wings confidently extended\, like a prize fighter. She’s a Featherweight. \nWhile in isolation\, during the 2020 global pandemic\, Moody hand-painted geometric abstractions. His joined circuits symbolically keep us connected\, even when we’re physically apart. \n Cosbe conveys the emotional complexity of understanding and accepting his child’s permanent health concerns\, through his signature\, frenetic style of instinctive painting. \nInspired by the six-fingered drawings of Andy Warhol and Sharon Stone’s infamous leg-crossing scene in the film\, Basic Instinct\, Alex Racine continued his study of the language of palmistry and incorporated these ideas into sculpted hands. \n Jose Aurelio Baez’s still-life flowers preserve his new memories of starting a family. \n This exhibition of 12 Contemporary and Urban Artists brings to focus small moments in time that led to big changes. Please visit us\, in-person by appointment\, at our 60 Pine Street location\, online at WoodwardGallery.net\, and through a virtual Exhibition Viewing Room on ARTSY.net.

SUMMARY:Daniel Rosenbaum: Inner Guardians\, Outer Explorers
DESCRIPTION:Woodward Gallery presents Daniel Rosenbaum: Inner Guardians\, Outer Explorers\, a Solo Exhibition at our 132A Eldridge Street location and continuing with large-scale works at our 60 Pine Street space. Thought-provoking gestural paintings ponder the question of whether an ancient relationship between humans and the cosmos exists. \nPoured and brushed paint and the artist’s hands and body integrate within Rosenbaum’s meditative painting process to unite earthly and astral sources. Paint asserts itself through natural spirals on his canvas surface. A form appears in his spontaneous expressions\, perhaps representing the curious\, to guide us away from here and now. Daniel Rosenbaum’s repetitive and introspective process of layering thick and thin acrylics in translucent coats helps guide him to unplanned images. \n\n\n\n\nRosenbaum isn’t afraid of vibrant colors that flow unconstrained in his canvases. The artist is influenced by the East while living in the West\, and looks to the sky for inspiration\, in a celestial awareness with limitless boundaries. \nHis paintings seek to understand the soul of the universe with a freedom and vigor that charge that inquiry. \nPlease come along on Daniel Rosenbaum’s creative journey at Woodward Gallery by appointment\, online at WoodwardGallery.net\, and in a virtual Exhibition Viewing Room on ARTSY.net.

SUMMARY:Margaret Morrison Objects of Desire
DESCRIPTION:Woodward Gallery celebrates this Winter Season with Margaret Morrison’s newest one-woman exhibition\, Objects of Desire\, marking the gallery’s return to its secondary location and launching its 30th Anniversary year! Oil paintings\, some previously exhibited in museums around the world\, are gathered for this solo exhibition\, together for the very first time. \nTuscany is Margaret Morrison’s second home and place of great inspiration. Nearly every summer\, Morrison wanders through the antique markets of Arezzo\, Cortona\, and Lucca\, Italy searching for inspiration. She often finds tables laden with sumptuous offerings of silver\, crystal\, and collectibles. Morrison explains that there are tables piled high with forgotten trinkets and discarded items that fascinate her with their accidental beauty. Monumental paintings from her Antiques series inspired by these observations will premiere in Objects of Desire. \nMargaret Morrison’s oil paintings are so realistic that they appear to be photographs. Her large-scale works are chock full of detail to behold. Shiny treasures reflect within one another or glisten with sugary lusciousness in her unique table settings. \nConsidering life from a child’s point of view\, Morrison believes that life becomes mysterious and magical all over again. Previously featured at the Art in Embassy program\, in Tel Aviv\, Israel\, and at the NYU Kimmel Vitrines in Manhattan\, New York\, larger-than-life marbles from her joyous Playtime series will be presented as part of Objects of Desire. \nMorrison’s decadent sweet treats have been featured at the Imperial Centre Museum\, in Rocky Mount\, North Carolina. Lightheartedly\, Margaret Morrison blames her father for her sweet tooth. She recalls her youth time family visits to the drive-in movie theater including ritual stops at the local drug store where her father would purchase several bags of candy. She vividly remembers the shiny wrappers\, the seductive packaging\, and the incalculable thrill of sweet pleasure. Indulge in delights from this Candy series\, premiering in New York City for Objects of Desire.
