Line, Color, Conditions, and Other Stories show a selection of works from the museum of modern and contemporary art that explores pure summaries as a central narrative. Although they are not imaginary, these works contain a wealth of stories about making art, art history, and the artists themselves. The works of Doris Leeper, Richard Anuszkiewicz, and Victor Vasarely, among others, emphasize the universal appeal of the elements of the structure of representation: line, color, and shape.

For more than 25 years, From Chaos to Planning: The Art of Greek Geometry from the Sol Rabin Collection is the first major museum exhibition in the United States focusing on Greek art during the Geometry period (c. 900–700 B.C.). It is the first exhibition of its kind to focus on the beauty of Greek Geometric art and to show how the principles of style in visual art during the Geometry period reflect the Greek concept of something beautiful (referred to as kallos). The exhibition includes a series of works of Greek Geometry works: 57 paintings, animals, vases, and personal ornaments such as military belts and hangings.

 American Modernisms at the Rollins Museum of Art explores the various meanings of the word American modernism in the context of the Rollins Museum of Art collection. From the highly regarded observations of the Ashcan School to the free exploration of the 1970s, American artists used the tools and techniques of modern art to explore, reflect, research, and transform the world around them. Paying special attention to the ways in which American modernism influenced and influenced the wider social life of the twentieth century, the show seeks to present the collection in a new way, to build new connections, to highlight unknown artists, and finally. to improve our understanding of American modernism as it is widely considered.

 Prior to the Enlightenment, much of the art produced in Europe was religious, celebrating the saints of the Christian religion. The Myths of the Saints (to be considered until April 3) began with the question: when it comes to those who are not included in the Bible, where do these stories come from? The short answer is, from Golden Legend, a 13th-century collection that quickly transformed into a medieval merchant. Drawings of these inscriptions, dating to the late 15th - 18th centuries, show a continuous increase in such presentations until the end of the first modern era, and bring out some of the stories that continue to impress us.

 Artistic Integration: Ally is a Verb who talks about cooperation, solidarity, and community building from a variety of perspectives; The collaborative channel encourages members of the campus and outside communities to respond to perceived activities by sharing their stories, adding to the integrated oral history database featuring a variety of words and information. The show features interviews with Rollins College's Common Read allyship team. For each piece, and selected as a group, speak of friendship, solidarity, and community building with many ideas.

In 1974, French dealer and race car driver Hervé Poulain commissioned Calder to paint a BMW race car. A year later, a great partnership was achieved. Calder has designed flexible forms with bright colors on car wings, a bonnet, and a roof reminiscent of the artist's famous cell phones, but also his two-dimensional works. Named after the Calder Foundation's BMW Group Classic, Evidence of Art fulfills Calder's dream of making his own original BMW Art Car, which serves as his intended kinetic artwork.

Calder's BMW Art Car ran for the first time and was the only one at 24 Heures du Mans on June 14, 1975. One of the last works of art created before the artist's death, the project was an important partnership that inspired the entire Art Car system in BMW. -a venerable, elaborate cross and world of art. After Calder's Art Car competed in Le Mans, it was exhibited at an artist's exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City in 1976, where it housed a prominent museum exhibition at the blockbuster exhibition.

Alexander SC Rower, president of the Calder Foundation and grandson of the artist, said, “I first met the BMW Art Car when I was a child at the opening of my grandfather's historical museum at the Whitney Museum in 1976. the roar of its M49 engine, he then smiled and told me he wanted to make it his own. He died a few weeks later. From then on, I wanted to live up to his dream of making a car enjoyable. ”

Articles of Art 2021 are named by the BMW Group Classic of the Calder Foundation not as a metaphor, but as incomplete, the same proof of the artist Calder was originally entitled to. Carefully developed from the original BMW 3.0 CSL, Art Proof with the same car identification number, with the appendix “AP” (227592 / AP). To create it, the two organizations negotiated key members of the original project, including Poulain and Walter Maurer, who completed the 1975 Calder BMW Art Car technology and the 2021 Art Proof.

Poulain recalls: “It was an exciting time as a young driver to meet the great American artist Alexander Calder at his home in Saché. The race that was the first of its kind in the world of prestigious luxury cars is a memorable one that I will never forget. I am happy that so many people are now getting Calder's opinion, thanks to the evidence of this new artist. ”

The inclusion represents the latest duplication of the Norton series "Special Guests", which showcases unique works of art with loans from public and private collections. Other special guest views currently include Special Guest: Water Lily Pond (Clouds), co-hosted by Claude Monet's The Water Lily Pond (Clouds) in the Dallas Museum of Art collection and Special Guest: Beaching the Boat (Afternoon Light) Art Gallery . by Joaquín Sorolla y Bastida, from the Hispanic Society of America in New York.

THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS @ WMODA

 

THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS @ WMODA

TAGS: ARTS EXEMPORARY ART MUSEUM EXHIBITION

To celebrate the International Year of Glass 2022, the Wiener Museum of Decorative Arts unveils a new season of exhibitions and events exploring the Flaming Art "Glass Glass."

It has been 150 years since Lewis Carroll wrote the following poem in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and the stories are still real and shocking today. Follow down the rabbit hole into the WMODA Wonderland to see the Alice-shaped glass hats, the wearable “glasskins” and coats, and the mannequins that make the recycled glass. You will be struck by a glass duet that breaks all the illusions of music and art.

At noon on Saturday, December 4, at the spectacular Chihuly glass collection at WMODA, artists in our community will be trying to "beyond the bubble" in the glass. Wynwood glass artist, Rob Stern, will be developing glass instruments and keyboard responses from Dave Rosenthal.

Dave is a multi-disciplinary and self-professed artist chasing sound and simplicity. He made a sound map for the glass making on Rob's oven to compose real composite music. Their new Resonance performance will symbolize the life cycle and creation in the glass-making process. As they trace the emergence of sand and fire in glass art, they will highlight that our visual and auditory senses contribute to our visceral experience and visual perception.

The Florida Mannequin Project will be re-launched at WMODA on December 4th thanks to a initiative by the Daniel and Trudy Regan Foundation. Regans have encouraged artists during this time of violence by increasing the mannaquins they have redeemed "from the death penalty they have received as the store closures affect all American cities." Several artists associated with WMODA make mannequins using glass plates and mirror designs to create “broken souls” depicting various processes for making glass.

Public artist, Lloyd Goradesky, explores heartfelt art in his charitable project Let LOVE Guide Your Way and creates a Queen of Hearts mannequin “kind, a mirror that contrasts with what happened to Alice. The project leader, Chelsea Rousso, is unfamiliar with mannequins from his career as a fashion designer, teacher, and author of styles and predictions. She has combined these talents with the wearable glass cloak that she presented at the fashion shows. Many of Chelsea's new glass designs will take effect on December 4 when live models will wear his glass art alongside new "silent partners".

Meet the Mannequin Project artists and support them with your Holiday shopping from the amazing list of works of art sold at WMODA Wonderland. FREE admission to WMODA on Saturday, December 4th for this special event during Miami Art Week. Visit www.WMODA.com/special-events/ for the full program
