SUMMARY:Lecture & Preview Reception for "Encounters: Jared Small"
DESCRIPTION:Encounters: Jared Small\nGrisham Gallery\nOn Display February 3 – May 19\, 2019 \nMembers’ Lecture and Preview Party \nFriday\, February 1\, 2019 \nLecture by Jared Small: 6 p.m.\nReception catered by Chef Narvell: 7-8:30 p.m.\nHosted by Special Committee \nMember Tickets: $25 | Non-member Tickets: $50\nTickets available on January 10th\nSeating limited to 175 \n[Purchase Tickets Here] \nJoin us for the Members’ Lecture & Preview Party of Encounters: Jared Small.  This exhibition focuses on the accomplished paintings of this emerging Memphis artist. Small’s paintings on panel and vellum often feature flowers floating in ethereal spaces and Southern homes existing in ambiguity. Essentially self-taught\, Small’s ability to detail exactly what he sees is one of his greatest talents. He describes his practice as\, “…trying to accomplish a dreamlike state. I’m imagining other people’s memories — fading\, but still there.” Small harnesses a style similar to magical realism\, with the center of each painting focused on a painstakingly accurate image while the background dissolves into abstract elements. This technique allows the artist to hypnotize the viewer into a dream-like state\, caught between the realities of the obvious and the mysteries that seem to exist beneath the surface. Organized by HMA. \n

SUMMARY:Alan Shuptrine: The Serpentine Chain OPENS
DESCRIPTION:On Display Now – August 5\, 2018 \nThis exhibition of thematic watercolor paintings by Tennessee artist Alan Shuptrine pays tribute to the land and people found along the Appalachian Trail\, and of the distinctive culture that endures from the mountains of Maine to Georgia. The body of work celebrates the connections of Appalachia with its historical and cultural counterpart in the British Isles\, highlighting Celtic traditions that were brought to America in the 18th century and are still practiced in the region today. The paintings are ornamented with Shuptrine’s hand-carved frames\, many of which are embedded with serpentine\, a mineral that is found not only along the entire Appalachian Trail\, but also in the regions of the British Isles where the original settlers to Appalachia were born. Organized by Alan Shuptrine and the Huntsville Museum of Art.

SUMMARY:Cut Up/Cut Out OPENS / Curator's Viewpoint
DESCRIPTION:Curator’s Viewpoint with HMA Director of Curatorial Affairs\, Peter Baldaia\nSunday\, November 19\nLecture: 2 p.m.\nReception: 3 p.m.\nFree to Museum members/ Included with general admission \nThe art of cutting paper dates back thousands of years\, with early artworks coming from 6th century China. Originally a decorative handcraft for women\, Chinese paper-cutting eventually expanded into rural areas\, becoming a staple at religious ceremonies and festivals. By the 14th century\, paper-cutting spread to the rest of the world bringing in a new wave of folk art traditions. Cut Up/Cut Out honors both innovation and tradition with a selection of over 50 artists representing diverse styles and techniques by taking a contemporary view of an ancient art practice that has evolved over thousands of years. \nCut Up/Cut Out is an exhibition of local\, national and international artists who explore the captivating methods of decorative piercing and cutting\, using a wide range of media from paper and plastic to metal and rubber. The transformative nature of cutting into and through a surface provides endless possibilities for converting the material from opaque to transparent\, from flat to sculptural\, from rigid to delicate\, and from ordinary to exquisite. The process and precision required for this method of art-making is laborious\, technically demanding and always astonishing. \nVisually diverse\, the artworks in Cut Up/Cut Out range in size from an intimate three inches to sprawling and complex installations\, and they represent an abundance of conceptual ideas. The artists address our relationship with nature and environmental issues\, personal and political narratives\, architecture\, fantasy\, and abstract or formal ideas—with many intersections. \nThis show features several large scale installations including: Margaret Griffith’s Coringa\, a hand-cut\, 12 foot long paper artwork that cascades from the ceiling\, Adriane Colburn’s expansive multimedia piece Forest for the Trees\, and a site–specific\, interactive installation by Los Angeles artist Rebecca Niederlander.  Cut Up/Cut Out also includes a group of artists who are drawn to cutting into unique or unusual materials such as tires\, oil drums\, and leaves. \nThe curator of this exhibition\, Carrie Lederer\, was inspired by Bay Area artist\, Irene Pijoan’s (1953-2004) groundbreaking large-scale cut paper artwork and has dedicated Cut Up/Cut Out to her memory.  Cut Up/Cut Out is a traveling exhibition that was organized by the Bedford Gallery and will travel nationally through 2020.

SUMMARY:Norman Rockwell: Behind the Camera OPENS
DESCRIPTION:Norman Rockwell (1894-1978) was a 20th-century American author\, painter and illustrator whose works appealed to a broad population in the United States for its reflection of American culture. Rockwell is most famous for the cover illustrations of everyday life he created for The Saturday Evening Post magazine over a period of nearly five decades. \nFinding success at a young age\, Rockwell became the art director of Boys’ Life\, the official publication of the Boy Scouts of America in his teenage years.  At age 21\, Rockwell set up a studio with the cartoonist Clyde Forsythe and in 1916\, the 22-year-old Rockwell painted his first cover for The Saturday Evening Post.  Over the next 47 years\, another 321 Rockwell covers would appear on the cover of the Post. \nEarly in his career\, Rockwell would hire professional models to pose for the characters in his paintings. However\, beginning in the mid-1930s he embraced photography and began using friends and neighbors rather than professional models.  For Rockwell\, already known as “the kid with the camera eye\,” photography was more than an artist’s aid.  The familiarity with his new subjects paired with the camera’s ability to capture a fleeting expression or freeze a difficult pose\, brought a new flesh-and-blood realism to his work and opened a window to the keenly observed authenticity that defines his art. \nNorman Rockwell: Behind the Camera is organized by the Norman Rockwell Museum and is the first exhibition to delve deeply into Rockwell’s richly detailed study photographs\, created by the artist as references for his iconic paintings. Organized with author and guest curator\, Ron Schick\, the exhibition reveals a rarely seen yet fundamental aspect of Rockwell’s creative process and unveils a significant new body of Rockwell imagery in an unexpected medium and showcases the behind-the-scenes shots as works of art themselves. \nThe exhibition\, Norman Rockwell: Behind the Camera\, is organized and circulated by the Norman Rockwell Museum and brings together prints of Rockwell’s study photographs and original paintings and drawings from their permanent collection.

SUMMARY:Painting a Nation: Hudson River School Landscapes OPENS
DESCRIPTION:Natives of New York\, Ann and Lee Higdon developed an interest in art during their teenage years. They often visited museums and found themselves drawn to paintings of the Hudson River School. After marrying and purchasing a nineteenth-century home overlooking the Hudson\, they began to collect paintings of the Hudson River School in the 1980s. For nearly forty years\, their interest in this artistic period has endured\, resulting in the collection of works on view in this exhibition. \nIn the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries\, American artists looked to Europe for both aesthetic themes and painterly methods of depicting the world around them. This began to change in the early decades of the nineteenth century as artists adapted European aesthetics to develop a distinctly American landscape narrative.  The name Hudson River School\, originally intended to be disparaging\, was coined to identify a group of landscape artists living in New York City\, several of whom built homes on the Hudson River. The term has evolved beyond regional expression and is now generally accepted to describe nineteenth-century American landscape painting. \nPainting a Nation: Hudson River School Landscapes from the Higdon Collection features significant American artists from the Hudson River School\, including Albert Bierstadt\, William Bradford\, Jasper Francis Cropsey\, William Hart\, William Trost Richards and many others. The majority of the works depict scenes of New York State and include paintings of the Hudson River\, Lake George and the Adirondack Mountains region.  However\, the second generation of Hudson River School painters extended their visual reach into areas along the Atlantic Coast and Far West\, reflecting the expansion of the United States during the mid-nineteenth century.  Together\, these paintings celebrate the picturesque beauty of our nation and reflect the collective desire of the Hudson River painters to develop a uniquely American visual language\, independent of European schools of painting. \nAssembled with a discerning eye for quality\, the Higdon Collection includes superb examples of Hudson River School paintings\, the first native school of painting in the United States.
