MVNU Alumni Artists Amy Lewis and Jason Andrew Bowles to Exhibit in January

MVNU Alumni Artists Amy Lewis and Jason Andrew Bowles to Exhibit in January
MOUNT VERNON, Ohio — “Praestigia” by Amy Lewis and “WYSIWYG” by Jason Andrew Bowles exhibits will be on display Jan. 8 to Feb. 23. A reception for the show will be held on Friday, Jan. 12, from 6-8 p.m.
As MVNU alumni artists, their work pertains to Fluxus thought which assimilates materiality, simplicity, chance, and even a bit of humor as important components to making art. As contemporary sculptors in their own right, Lewis and Bowles have built on this foundation in separate but complementary ways to perceive the world as found, delicate, and transient. Schnormeier Gallery is thrilled to show their unique perspectives in tandem.
Lewis graduated from MVNU in 2003 and earned her MFA from Columbus College of Art and Design (CCAD) in 2015. Bowles graduated from MVNU in 2002 and earned his MFA from Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) in 2012.
This exhibit and reception are free and open to the public.

AMAM SHOWCASES MODERNIST WORKS DONATED BY MAIDENFORM FOUNDER

OBERLIN, OH—A current exhibition at the Allen Memorial Art Museum (AMAM), Maidenform to Modernism: The Bissett Collection, unites for the first time since 1968 two dozen modernist works gifted by two of the museum’s most important donors, Enid (1893–1965) and Joseph Bissett (1888–1968).

Enid Bissett, a cofounder of the Maidenform brassiere company, and her husband, Joseph, became avid collectors of contemporary art, amassing an impressive array of works by the mid-20th century. Their generous donations to the AMAM during the 1950s and 60s added works by Marc Chagall, Jean Dubuffet, Henri Matisse, Joan Miró, Pablo Picasso, and other prominent modernists to the museum collection. Curated by Andria Derstine, the AMAM’s John G.W. Cowles Director, Maidenform to Modernism, which runs through May 27, 2018, celebrates the couple’s belief in the power of art to further education in the academic setting of Oberlin College.
       
     Joseph Bissett had been a vaudeville performer in the early years of the 20th century, and he and Enid had performed together as ballroom dancers and entertainers. In 1922, in New York City, Enid Bissett cofounded, with seamstress Ida Rosenthal, what became the Maidenform brassiere company. At the time, most brassieres were designed to flatten the chest; in contrast, Bissett’s bras accentuated the wearer’s figure. The iconoclastic undergarments enjoyed international popularity. In the 1930s, the Bissetts began collecting art, much of it purchased through Pierre Matisse (1900–1989), an art dealer and the son of artist Henri Matisse. The Bissetts initially considered donating their collection to the Museum of Modern Art, but the institution already had formidable holdings in this area. The couple’s nephew, J. R. Judson—who graduated from Oberlin College in 1948—advised the Bissetts instead to make their donation to the AMAM. The couple agreed, expressing the desire that their donation be used to support the education of Oberlin students. At the time, modernist art was only sparsely represented at the AMAM; the Bissetts’ contributions significantly enriched the collection, and form the core of the museum’s holdings in European modernism to this day. 
         
   The Bissett collection spans 63 years and seven national origins. The exhibition features four works by Spanish surrealist Joan Miró, including Women, Bird, and Serpent in Front of the Sun (1944), a work originally owned by American architect Gordon Bunshaft, which is reminiscent of the artist’s Constellations series and exemplifies the rhythmic figures, birds, and cosmic motifs that characterized the artist’s output in the 1940s and 50s. Matisse’sYoung Girl Seated (1936) depicts the nurse of the artist’s wife reclining on a cushion, painted in a vibrant palette of reds, yellows, and blues, inspired by Matisse’s travels in the Pacific in the early 1930s. Alongside these works by iconic 20th-century European modernists, the Bissett collection also features one 19th-century painting—British artist Alfred Sisley’s landscape, The Long Canal at Moret (ca. 1892)—and one work by self-taught African American artist Horace Pippin, Harmonizing (1944). Drawing on Pippin’s upbringing in a small-town black community, the painting depicts a quartet of men singing on a street corner.

The exhibition features seven works by French modernist Jean Dubuffet (1901–1985), whose early paintings—including Lili noir de fumeé (1946), the first of Dubuffet’s works to be acquired by Enid Bissett, in 1948—were ridiculed in a 1948 Life magazine article as “mud-and-rabble” and accused of “reduc(ing) modernism to a joke.” Despite these excoriating assessments, the Bissetts, along with such contemporaneous American artists as Jackson Pollock and Claes Oldenburg, admired Dubuffet’s idiosyncratic technique and materials, and he has since come to be regarded as one of the most important French artists. In addition to admiring his work, the Bissetts maintained a 20-year friendship with Dubuffet, and donated parts of their correspondence with the artist to the AMAM. These letters are on display in the exhibition, along with a manuscript that Dubuffet wrote about the self-taught artist Emile Lebrun.

A letter written in 1952 by Charles Parkhurst, then director of the AMAM, to Enid Bissett memorializes a visit he made to her, during which Enid offered to donate her collection to the museum.Maidenform to Modernism was organized as part of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the AMAM. Curator and museum director Andria Derstine said, “The story of this remarkable donation by an extraordinary couple—neither of whom had a college degree—is one of the many that the AMAM seeks to highlight this year and is a testament to the generosity and foresight of the diverse group of people who have helped to build the museum’s impressive, irreplaceable collections over the past 100 years.”

In conjunction with the exhibition, Derstine will present a free Tuesday Tea Talk about the Bissetts at 2:30 pm on Tuesday, December 12, in the museum’s East Gallery.

MUSEUM HOURS: Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Sunday 1 to 5 p.m.; closed Mondays and major holidays. Free educational or group guided tours may be arranged by calling 440.775.8671.

Nov. 15: "Leading Change at the First Level." Leading major change is not the same as leading day-to-day operations. In this program, participants will explore the patterns that differentiate great change leaders, focusing on the complicated role of the front-line leader who must follow and lead simultaneously.

Participants will work on a practical case study project in small groups to clarify the project's goal and objectives, identify deliverables, create a work breakdown structure and build a schedule.

Dec. 12: "Professional Communications & Presence." First impressions, nonverbal communication and proper dining skills are key elements of being a business professional.

ALLEN MEMORIAL ART MUSEUM CHAMPIONS WOMEN IN PRINTMAKING

ALLEN MEMORIAL ART MUSEUM CHAMPIONS WOMEN IN PRINTMAKING

OBERLIN, OH--The Allen Memorial Art Museum (AMAM) celebrates the contributions of women to printmaking with the exhibition, A Century of Women in Prints, 1917-2017, which runs through December 17, 2017. For centuries, printmaking was regarded as a male-dominated medium outside the scope of socially acceptable pursuits for women. Though numerous women had nevertheless established themselves professionally as printmakers by the modern era, female artists remain underrepresented in most museum print collections to this day. Organized by Andaleeb Badiee Banta, curator of European and American Art, with assistance from Claire Rasmussen (OC ’19) and Kylie Fisher, the summer 2017 IFPDA Foundation curatorial intern, A Century of Women in Prints presents a selection of prints created by women during the course of the Allen’s first 100 years. Spanning a century and various styles (expressionism, surrealism, and minimalism, among others), and addressing distinct themes (poverty, race, gender, motherhood, war, and creativity), these prints offer a glimpse of the breadth and depth of female artists’ engagements with the medium over the past century.
Some of the artists represented in A Century of Women in Prints, whereas others engaged with printmaking only during isolated periods in their careers. The Prints of German Expressionist Käthe Kollwitz (1867-1945) feature prominently, including the woodcut Unemployment (1925), which depicts through haunting contrasts of light and shadow the destitution of a Weimar-era German family. A print by celebrated portrait artist Alice Neel (1900-1984) is also on view. Portrait of Olivia (1972) features a young girl whom Neel may or may not have known; her choice of the subject possibly reflects her difficult experiences as a young mother, including the death of her first daughter to diphtheria. Nefertiti Goodman's (born in 1949) enormous linocut print, Getting Fixed to Look Pretty (1978) portrays a black servant attending to her more affluent black employer, subverting familiar artistic tropes of African American women serving white women. The scale of Goodman’s work is in itself a statement, demanding the viewer’s attention despite traditional prejudices that marginalize both prints in general and those by black female artists especially. These figurative prints appear alongside abstract works like Athena Tacha’s Waves(1977), which represents the motion of waves through embossed, oscillating lines. Best known for her environmental public sculpture, Tacha (born in 1936) earned her master’s degree in art history at Oberlin College and subsequently worked as the first curator of modern art at the Allen.

The exhibition was developed in conjunction with the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Allen Memorial Art Museum. Curator of the exhibition Andaleeb Badiee Banta noted, “The print collection is a significant portion of the AMAM’s holdings and it made sense to create an exhibition that highlighted it. The idea to focus on women artists came about during the 2016 presidential election and the subsequent increased media attention on women and their social realities. It became apparent that the collection held exceptional works by women artists and that their display would draw attention to and celebrate the central role that women have played both in the museum’s collection and its history.”

Since its founding in 1917, the Allen Memorial Art Museum has benefited significantly from the contributions of impassioned female donors, artists, scholars, and collectors. The Allen counts four women among its directors, and A Century of Women in Prints is a testament to the museum’s efforts to champion female artists working in diverse media and speaking from distinct experiences and perspectives.





MUSEUM Hours: Tuesday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Sunday 1 to 5 p.m.; closed Mondays and major holidays. Free educational or group guided tours may be arranged by calling 440.775.8671.
