SUMMARY:CLOSING DAY: From the Mind's Eye
DESCRIPTION:Closing Day\nFrom the Mind’s Eye: Nonrepresentational Art from the Collection\nSunday\, October 31 | 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.\nEnjoy a last look at From the Mind’s Eye: Nonrepresentational Art from the Collection. Broadly speaking\, a work of art falls into one of three categories – representational art\, abstraction\, and nonrepresentational art. Representational art is characterized by the attempt to replicate an object or scene from the real world as accurately as possible. Abstraction runs the gamut from recognizable but altered subjects to depictions that have almost no relationship to their original source. Nonrepresentational art can be seen as the antithesis of representational artwork in that it has absolutely no reference to the real world. \nOur minds are geared to make sense of the world through the library of images that we carry with us. But some things just can’t be conveyed in a visual manner using the narrative vocabulary of images. Artists in the modern era began to explore new concepts of artmaking using color\, shape\, line\, texture and space to express things which cannot be seen\, including feelings\, emotions or experiences. \nFrom the Mind’s Eye features approximately 30 thoughtful yet intuitive artworks selected from the Museum’s extensive permanent collection. The works date from the latter half of the 20th century to the present\, and convey a sensation or experience without the use of recognizable imagery. Some of these works express the simple desire to create for the sake of creation — and the beauty that results from that act—through mark making\, patterning or even mathematical design. As you explore the galleries\, try to open yourself up to what each artist may be attempting to communicate— from pressure and dread to joy and the infinite. There is no right or wrong interpretation! \nThe exhibition features 22 artists\, including Richard Anuszkiewicz\, Chryssa\, John Chamberlain\, Richard Diebenkorn\, Sol Le Witt\, Rocio Rodriguez and Richard Zoellner\, among others. A number of works on display have not been on public view in over 25 years. From the Mind’s Eye: Nonrepresentational Art from the Collection will continue in the Adtran\, Jurenko and Thurber galleries from August 22 – October 31\, 2021.

SUMMARY:CLOSING DAY: Recent Acquisitions
DESCRIPTION:Closing Day\nRecent Acquisitions\nSunday\, Aug. 29 | 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.\nEnjoy a last look at Recent Acquisitions. The Huntsville Museum of Art is pleased to present the latest version of this recurring exhibition\, showcasing artworks recently added to its permanent collection within the last year. Some were purchased for the collection\, while others were gifts from generous donors. Some works will be familiar to those who came to view some of our past exhibitions\, and others are by artists who are household names. All were carefully reviewed by the Museum’s Collections and Acquisitions Committee to fit the criteria established for the collection\, and are compatible with the Museum’s collecting objectives and goals. \nRecent acquisitions exhibitions are by nature a wonderful hodgepodge. Works of different styles and media are displayed together\, sometimes with no unifying characteristic other than the fact that they came into the collection within a given period of time. But these shows serve an important purpose – they demonstrate the scope of the Museum’s collecting interests and provide us the opportunity to acknowledge generous donors whose gifts help our collection grow.

SUMMARY:CLOSING DAY: 9/11 and Beyond: Photographs from The Associated Press
DESCRIPTION:Closing Day\n9/11 and Beyond: Photographs from The Associated Press\nSunday\, November 28 | 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.\nEnjoy a last chance to view 9/11 and Beyond: Photographs from The Associated Press. \nThe iconic twin towers of New York City’s World Trade Center were a triumph of human imagination and will. Completed in 1973\, the towers stood at 110 stories each\, accommodating 50\,000 workers and 200\,000 daily visitors in a 10 million square foot space. They were the hub of the bustling Financial District\, a top tourist attraction and a symbol of America’s steadfast devotion to progress and the future. \nOn September 11\, 2001\, the Center became the target of a massive terrorist attack that took the lives of nearly 3\,000 people. The disaster also radically altered the city’s skyline\, destroying the twin columns of glass and steel that over the years had come to embody New York itself. \nOn the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks\, this exhibition looks back at the World Trade Center’s construction\, destruction\, and slow reemergence through 50 hand-selected photographs from the archives of The Associated Press. Organized by the Huntsville Museum of Art and The Associated Press.

SUMMARY:CLOSING DAY: Under Pressure: Painting with Air
DESCRIPTION:Closing Day\nUnder Pressure: Painting with Air\nA Survey of Contemporary Airbrush Realism\nSunday\, January 16 | 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.\nEnjoy a last chance to view Under Pressure: A Survey of Contemporary Airbrush Realism. \nThe airbrush — a hand-held instrument that uses compressed air to spray paint in a controlled manner — was invented in the late 19th century. But it was not until the mid-20th century that it became a popular tool for artists and illustrators to create a high level of realism in their works. Pioneers of airbrushing include Surrealist Man Ray and graphic illustrator Alberto Vargas. Later\, Pop artist James Rosenquist used it to evoke the qualities of advertising in his work. As the century progressed\, airbrushing fell out of fashion. But following the 2008 release of Norman Hathaway’s book\, Overspray: Riding High with the Kings of Airbrush Art\, this deceptively arduous technique rose to fashion once again. \nUnder Pressure is a survey exhibition of contemporary realism by some fifteen exceptional airbrush artists from throughout the nation and beyond\, including photorealists Don Eddy\, Kirk Lybecker and Hisaya Taira; still life painter Cesar Santander; and abstract illusionist George Green\, among others. Organized by David J. Wagner\, LLC\, Milwaukee\, WI.

DESCRIPTION:Closing Day\nSweetness and Light: Children in Illustration\nSunday\, February 27 | 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.\nEnjoy a last chance to view Children in Illustrations from the National Museum of American Illustration. \nChildren’s portrayal in illustration is often a reflection of how both creators and consumers viewed the ideal childhood of the time. During the Golden Age of American Illustration (1900-1950)\, children were often portrayed as symbols of innocence or as objects to protect\, with their depictions varying between encouraging a sense of adventure and as guidelines as to how an ‘ideal child’ should appear and act. \nThis exclusive exhibition features approximately 35 original works by some of the country’s most accomplished illustrators\, created for product advertising\, posters and calendars\, children’s books\, and magazine covers including Good Housekeeping\, Ladies Home Journal\, Scribner’s\, and the Saturday Evening Post. Organized by the National Museum of American Illustration\, Newport\, RI.

SUMMARY:CLOSING DAY: Encounters: Dean Mitchell
DESCRIPTION:Closing Day\nEncounters: Dean Mitchell\nSunday\, March 20 | 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.\nEnjoy a last chance to view Encounters: Dean Mitchell. \nThe engaging works of this master watercolorist from Tampa\, FL encompass portraits\, landscapes and still lifes in the realist tradition. In addition to watercolor\, Mitchell is accomplished in other media including egg tempera\, oil and pastel. His reputation hinges largely on his superb craftsmanship\, the emotional depth of his work\, his avoidance of facile sentimentality\, and his skilled sense of formal design. The artist engages with Black Identity by drawing his subjects mainly from\nAfrican American culture. \nOf his preferred subject matter\, Mitchell notes\, “Artists are observers of life\, and it is natural that I would first gravitate to the space which I occupy. The neighborhoods I was raised in were segregated. Most of my teachers were Black. Churches I attended were Black\, so it is natural for me as an artist to create works that reflect my own personal experience.” \nBorn in Pittsburgh\, PA and reared in the small town of Quincy in the Florida Panhandle\, Mitchell is a graduate of the Columbus College of Art & Design in Columbus\, OH. He has won many prestigious awards over the course of his career\, and his work can be found in public collections across the country\, including the Library of Congress in Washington\, DC\, the St. Louis Museum of Art\, and the Huntsville Museum of Art\, among others. Organized by HMA.

SUMMARY:CLOSING DAY: Beauty\, Passion & Bliss
DESCRIPTION:Closing Day\nBeauty\, Passion & Bliss:\n19th Century Masterworks from the Dahesh Museum of Art\nSunday\, July 3 | 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.\nEnjoy a last look at Beauty\, Passion & Bliss: 19th Century Masterworks from the Dahesh Museum of Art. Drawn from the rich collections of the Dahesh Museum of Art in New York City\, Beauty\, Passion & Bliss features an outstanding selection of paintings and sculptures that embody the 19th-century European academic tradition. Originating in 16th-century Italy\, this tradition was based on learning to draw the human figure\, and in adhering to principals of ideal beauty epitomized by Classical and Renaissance art. \nThe exhibition features a surprisingly wide range of themes and styles. There are historical\, religious\, and mythological paintings\, considered the highest form of art\, as well as examples of the ways in which historical themes were transformed into intimate\, detailed genre scenes that\, along with landscapes and idealized rustic subjects\, appealed to wealthy and middle-class European and American collectors. Also well-represented is Orientalism — highly popular images of the Middle East and North Africa that freely commingled reality and fantasy. Organized by the Dahesh Museum of Art\, New York\, NY.

SUMMARY:CLOSING DAY: Encounters: Aimee Perez
DESCRIPTION:Closing Day\nEncounters: Aimee Perez\nSunday\, July 10 | 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.\nEnjoy a last chance to view Encounters: Aimee Perez. \nMultidisciplinary artist Aimee Perez works with human forms – with their gestures and emotions\, lives and relationships – creating archetypes that transcend the context of their story. Through the exploration of contemporary\, religious and biblical themes\, she creates sculptures that explore the paradoxical truths of suffering and redemption\, grief and comfort. She works with various types of clays fired at high or low temperatures and surfaced with oxides washes\, slips\, terra sigillata\, engobes and glazes. She has also been known to layer her pieces with encaustic\, wax\, metals\, glass\, and found objects. Perez considers her work as her voice — a dialogue with the observer and simultaneously a self-exploration. \nAt age 12\, Perez left her native Cuba for the United States with her family through the Freedom Flights and grew up in Miami in a Cuban immigrant community. In 1989 she moved to Mexico City and continued painting and exhibiting with Cuban and Mexican artists\, absorbing influences of Mesoamerican art that continue to resonate in her production. Perez returned to Miami in 2006\, where she continues to work. Her works have been exhibited in national and international shows and is part of several collections in the United States and Mexico\, including the Huntsville Museum of Art. Organized by HMA.

SUMMARY:CLOSING DAY: Dorothea Lange’s America
DESCRIPTION:Closing Day\nDorothea Lange’s America\nSunday\, August 7 | 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.\nEnjoy a last chance to view Dorothea Lange’s America. \nThe Great Depression was a catalyst for a tremendous outburst of creative energy from America’s photographic community. The devastation wrought upon the country by the Depression inspired a host of socially conscious photographers to capture the many human stories of the time. Dorothea Lange’s America presents these stories with 30 photographs by Dorothea Lange as well as 25 additional works by 11 other photographers working during those troubled times\, including Walker Evans\, Ben Shawn\, Doris Ulmann and Marion Post Wolcott. Each used their cameras and the power of photography to effect positive change. \nPre-eminent among these photographers was Dorothea Lange (1895-1965). Her empathetic images documented the toll that the Depression took on the nation. The evidence was seen in the long lines of desperate\, jobless men\, migrant workers searching for work\, and impoverished families living in squalid conditions. Lange’s photographs made the human cost of the Depression personal by searing these images into America’s consciousness. Her most celebrated photographs of that era – Migrant Mother\, White Angel Breadline and Migratory Cotton Picker – have since become icons of the American experience. Organized by Art2Art Circulating Exhibitions\, Ann Arbor\, MI.

SUMMARY:CLOSING DAY: A Beautiful Mess: Weavers and Knotters of the Vanguard
DESCRIPTION:Closing Day\nA Beautiful Mess: Weavers and Knotters of the Vanguard\nSunday\, October 9 | 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.\nEnjoy a last chance to view A Beautiful Mess: Weavers and Knotters of the Vanguard. \nFrom micro artworks the size of your hand to mammoth room-sized installations\, the national roster of women artists in A Beautiful Mess push the boundaries of their textile-based medium. Using rope\, yarn\, clay and wire\, this group of conceptual artists knot and twist their media into sculptures that range from minimal and hyper-organized to utter pandemonium. They explore personal and political ideals — order and chaos to the extreme — and freely break the rules to create their beautiful artworks. Serious about making a strong cultural and intellectual impact\, this group deftly weaves their message into works that demonstrate extraordinary technical skill. \nArtists include Windy Chien\, Kira Dominguez Hultgren\, Kirsten Hassenfeld\, Dana Hemenway\, Dani Lopez\, Hannah Perrine Mode\, Liz Robb\, Katrina Sánchez Standfield\, Meghan Shimek\, Lisa Solomon and Jacqueline Surdell. Organized by The Bedford Gallery\, Walnut Creek\, CA.

SUMMARY:CLOSING DAY: Betty Grisham: A Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Closing Day\nBetty Grisham: A Celebration\nSunday\, November 13 | 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.\nEnjoy a last chance to view Betty Grisham: A Celebration. \nThe Museum is pleased to have this opportunity to present a memorial exhibition of artworks by beloved Huntsville artist and arts advocate Betty Grisham\, who passed away last year at the venerable age of 99. A North Alabama native\, she earned her BA in Fine Art and Education at Montevallo College in 1942\, and MA in Fine Art Education from Columbia University Teachers College in 1945. After teaching and exhibiting in Atlanta and Birmingham\, she settled in Huntsville in 1963\, where she continued to experiment with textiles and the applied arts including needlepoint\, rug making and fabric design. Her unique garments for the commercial market were sold in New York and elsewhere\, and she founded a business designing custom hand painted and printed fabrics for interior design. Grisham also became an important advocate of the Huntsville Art League\, as well as a key supporter and patron of the Huntsville Museum of Art. She retired in the mid 1990s and continued to work from her home studio on paintings\, wall hangings and needlepoints for many years. \nGrisham’s art was often inspired by the colors and shapes of nature\, interpreted through her lively imagination and confident use of abstraction. She easily moved between bold drama and poetic restraint in her works\, and the Museum’s collection of 24 paintings\, textiles\, prints and collages exemplify her broad skill set. Her artworks are uniquely personal\, combining traditional handwork like embroidery and fabric dying with abstracted\, bold patterning. Reflecting upon what inspired her creativity\, the artist once said: “Winter’s fiery sunsets\, I see and enjoy them every day. Then I do drawings that become other works. Things that are growing — nature\, I come back to it more and more. Changes of the seasons and the subtlety of nature inspire my work. I have studied art history and see great value in all periods. Georgia O’Keeffe was an influence. Inspiration comes from many sources.”

SUMMARY:CLOSING DAY: Encounters: Vadis Turner
DESCRIPTION:Closing Day\nEncounters: Vadis Turner\nSunday\, November 27 | 12 p.m. – 5 p.m.\nEnjoy a last chance to view Encounters: Vadis Turner. \nAfter receiving her BFA and MFA at Boston University\, Nashville-born artist Vadis Turner became fascinated by the possibilities presented by traditional handicraft materials to define and contradict conventional gender roles. Her mixed media work began with a debutante gown made out of wax paper from her mother’s kitchen. She continues to create works that transcend the commonplace from its intended function into a vehicle for social commentary. She observes\, “Transforming domestic materials into contemporary art objects bonds me with ancestral forms of craft that determine a woman’s value\, sexual worth and cultural identity. My time\, like generations of women before me\, is judged by what I make with my hands.” \nThrough exhibitions and residencies in France\, the Czech Republic and Japan\, Turner has deepened her vocabulary and expanded her perception of women’s work. She is both reviving and reinventing a function for handmade objects in a society with progressively fewer hands-on activities. Organized by HMA.
