Seeing Past the Future, an online exhibition of works by 2020 Pollock-Krasner Foundation grant recipients, will open on June 10. The project was conceived by Shimon Attie, the inaugural Charles C. Bergman Endowed Visiting Professor of Studio Art at Stony Brook University’s College of Arts and Sciences, in conjunction with the Pollock-Krasner House and Study Center.

The exhibition will comprise 50 works in a wide range of media, aesthetics, and conceptual strategies. There is also a balance between representational works and those that are more abstract in nature. All, however, were created before the pandemic’s inception. It may be tempting to conclude that many of them in some way prefigure the catastrophe that followed. Rather than deny this implication, Mr. Attie’s intention is to acknowledge and welcome the challenges it poses.

 

The digital exhibition will be hosted on the Pollock-Krasner House and Study Center and Pollock-Krasner Foundation websites:pkhouse.org and pkf.org.

 

In consultation with Norman L. Kleeblatt, a former curator at the Jewish Museum in New York, and with curatorial assistance from Talya Feldman, Mr. Attie has chosen a group of 29 artists who received Pollock-Krasner Foundation grants since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Knowing firsthand the vulnerabilities and needs of living artists, Lee Krasner established the foundation to offer them vital assistance. Through the presentation of contemporary works by grant recipients, Mr. Attie hopes to underscore how Pollock and Krasner’s legacy remains vibrant and relevant and continues through the practice of numerous working artists today.

La exposición comprenderá 50 obras en una amplia gama de medios, estéticas y estrategias conceptuales. También existe un equilibrio entre las obras representativas y las de naturaleza más abstracta. Sin embargo, todos fueron creados antes del inicio de la pandemia. Puede ser tentador concluir que muchos de ellos prefiguran de alguna manera la catástrofe que siguió. En lugar de negar esta implicación, la intención del Sr. Attie es reconocer y dar la bienvenida a los desafíos que plantea.

La exposición digital se llevará a cabo en los sitios web de Pollock-Krasner House and Study Center y Pollock-Krasner Foundation: pkhouse.org y pkf.org.

En consulta con Norman L. Kleeblatt, ex curador del Museo Judío de Nueva York, y con la asistencia curatorial de Talya Feldman, el Sr. Attie eligió a un grupo de 29 artistas que recibieron subvenciones de la Fundación Pollock-Krasner desde el inicio del COVID. -19 pandemia. Conociendo de primera mano las vulnerabilidades y necesidades de los artistas vivos, Lee Krasner estableció la fundación para ofrecerles asistencia vital. A través de la presentación de obras contemporáneas por los beneficiarios de las subvenciones, el Sr. Attie espera subrayar cómo el legado de Pollock y Krasner sigue siendo vibrante y relevante y continúa a través de la práctica de numerosos artistas en activo en la actualidad.

 

«Estamos muy contentos de albergar esta, nuestra primera exposición virtual de arte contemporáneo», dijo Helen A. Harrison, directora de Eugene V. y Clare E. Thaw de Pollock-Krasner House and Study Center. «Nos permite rendir homenaje al apoyo de la Fundación Pollock-Krasner a artistas destacados a nivel internacional, llegar a una amplia audiencia y destacar el compromiso del museo de promover la creatividad en todas sus formas».

 

Ver más allá del futuro estará acompañado por un panel de discusión de Zoom el domingo 13 de junio a las 3 p.m. EDT, cuando el Sr. Attie y el Sr. Kleeblatt estarán acompañados por Jeanne Wolff-Bernstein, PhD, una distinguida psicoanalista con práctica en Viena, Austria, y la artista rumana Cătălina Nistor, cuyo trabajo está incluido en la exposición. Discutirán la exposición en relación con el concepto de sombra lateral, una teoría que nos recuerda que cada momento presente, cada evento, mayor y menor, es denso con una amplia variedad de futuros complejos y, a veces, contradictorios. El evento es gratis, pero se necesita registrarse.

The body as Territory

A female exhibition curated by KIOSKO Gallery/ 

Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia

The exhibition proposes a selection of 20 works in different media that, as a whole, rethink the idea of the body in tension with the physical space, and the territorialization in which the construction of personal identity is framed.

The exhibition called ¨The body as territory¨ produced for the Female voices of Latin America exhibition, consists in 20 works with the artworks of four Bolivian women, Raquel Schwartz, Alejandra Alarcón, Guiomar Mesa and Claudia Joskowicz, who reflect the tensions between space and its inflection in individual identity.

Claudia Joskowicz

Alejandra Alarcón

Guiomar Mesa

Raquel Schwartz

The show includes very important works to the context of Bolivian art, such as the instalation SOMOS by the artist Raquel Schwartz, the documentation of a intervention in the base of the monument in the main square of the city of Santa Cruz, the work which covers the base of the monument with mirrors, not only adorns and turns the sculpture into a friendly place for the public of the city, but also puts in tension, the reality of the daily life of the city, and contrasts it with the monument, the history that the politics decided to promote and the urban landscape.

The video ¨Drawn and Quartered¨ by video artist Claudia Joskowicz, a pan of a postmodern representation of the torture and death of the indigenous leader Tupac Amaru, an indigenous who led the first indian revolution during the spanish colonization in actual bolivian territory, and which has remained as a milestone in the struggle for equality of rights in the country. The panning that slowly runs through the scene, cannot avoid showing the colonial landscape as a pillar of impact within the action of the video.

The series of oil paintings “sea of salt” by the artist Guiomar Mesa, are not only hyper-realistic representations of Uyuni´s salt lake, one of the regions more easily identifiable touristic sites in Bolivia, but these paintings in the context, not only are framed on the edge of pictorial abstraction, but also insist on a representation of a white territory, full of textures and lights, generating a somewhat confusing representation of reality, and the way in which it is represented through painting.The series of oil paintings “sea of salt” by the artist Guiomar Mesa, are not only hyper-realistic representations of Uyuni´s salt lake, one of the regions more easily identifiable touristic sites in Bolivia, but these paintings in the context, not only are framed on the edge of pictorial abstraction, but also insist on a representation of a white territory, full of textures and lights, generating a somewhat confusing representation of reality, and the way in which it is represented through painting.

Alejandra Alarcón, far from the spacial representations like the rest of the artists, proposes to look at the body and its representation as a territory of experiences that is going to define it within, as in the work, "tamer of wolves" in which with a clear reference to children's stories, the artist creates a space-time in which the tamer overpower a group of wolves that are prostrate at her feet.

This exhibition is an excellent look at current Bolivian art production and the strength and power of its creators.
