“Where the Wild Things… Aren’t?” @ Wall Space Gallery

Exhibition view, Wall Space Gallery. Front right: artwork by Tony Taylor; at the back: performance video by Gareth Bate: Penance, 2011 http://www.garethbate.com/artwork_pages/penance_performance.html

On Earth Day 2012 opened an environmental art exhibition at Wall Space Gallery that explores the human relationship to nature - or at least the concept of it.

The exhibit bases on the “central paradox” of human and nature, like scholar and environmental theorist William Cronon writes:
“This, then, is the central paradox: wilderness embodies a dualistic vision in which the human is entirely outside the natural. If we allow ourselves to believe that nature, to be true, must also be wild, then our very presence in nature represents its fall. The place where we are is the place where nature is not… We thereby leave ourselves little hope of discovering what an ethical, sustainable, honorable human place in nature might actually look like.” (excerpted from "The Trouble with Wilderness; or, Getting back to the Wrong Nature")

Jessica Marion Barr, Augury: Elegy, 2011

The show features works by artists who share a keen interest in exploring themes of environment: Ottawa-area natives Stefan Thompson, Barbara Cuerden and Carmella Karijo Rother, along with Gareth Bate, Karen Abel, Jessica Marion Barr, Tony Taylor, Ingrid Koivukangas, and Jane Fulton Alt.

Karen Abel: Hibernaculum, 2012. Bats made of Cast sugar. http://karenabel.ca/projects/hibernaculum/

The exhibition aims for an intimate reflection, and rises questions about our relationship to nature and the environmental crises – without prescribing solutions. Rather, the viewer is prompted to rethink the human-nature connection, and to question his habits.

Photographs by Jane Fulton Alt that deal with the environmental desaster of the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

This exhibition represents a partial fulfillment of curator Cynthia Mykytyshyn's degree requirements. This research was supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada.

Mixed media works by Ingrid Koivukangas. Underneath the photographs of herbs and flowers, you will find their seeds in little glass cases.

Megan D'Arcy @ Orange Art Gallery

"Stepping into Paris" starts next week at the Orange Art Gallery in Hintonburg. Ottawa artist Megan D'Arcy presents her works from her recent trip to Paris: During her one week tour, Megan visited the river Seine, Monmartre, Saint Germain de Pres and the Moulin Rouge in the red light district. The Paris streets were the inspiration for her new series of funky urban landscapes. She incorporates photography, collage, acrylic and resin in her photo-collage based pieces that strongly remind me at the futuristic movement of the early 20th century, in particular Paul Citroen's "Metropolis" (1923) with its skyscrapers in a claustrophobic perspective... And I'm sure the Vernissage will be a pretty good party!

Interview: Aerial Photographer Louis Helbig

Aerial art photographer Louis Helbig recently gave an interview with CityTV Edmonton about his series "Beautiful Destruction":

http://video.citytv.com/video/detail/1367742830001.000000/beautiful-destruction/

Helbig explains his interest in the oil sands in the tension that arises between his truly beautiful images and the environmental disaster going on there. With his neutral aerial photographs, Helbig gives the viewers the opportunity to form their own opinion. This documentary approach nevertheless is an important contribution to the current debate.

Made in America 1900-1950. Photographs from the National Gallery of Canada

It took me over one month but I finally made it to the photographs exhibition at the National Gallery (NGC). “Made in America 1900-1950” belongs to a series of exhibitions that has shown 19th-century British and 19th-century French photographs in the recent years. Now the first half of the 20th century American photography has its turn… and it turned out very well.

The exhibition at the second floor shows just over 100 photographs, and follows the approach to present both photography as art and documentary. This clearly lies in the nature of the show, presenting American photography in the first half of the 20th century which of course includes art and documentation – just thinking about names like Edward Steichen, Dorothea Lange, Berenice Abbott, Lisette Model, and Weegee. And it lies in the nature of photography; so this approach is not entirely new. It even might leave some of the visitors a bit wondering about the combination of these photographs that follow so different approaches. (Still, regardless of the discussion about photography as art and its place in museums that seems to be obsolete by now!) But on the other hand, the exhibition gives an excellent overview about the development of American photography and its most famous photographers – and it shows amazing vintage prints that we all have seen in textbooks about this era.

The exhibition starts with Pictorialism of the first two decades of the early 20th century. In particular Gertrude Käsebier’s romantic gum bichromate prints (one shows Edward Steichen standing beside her sister and friends) caught my attention. The photographs clearly show the Pictorialist aim to advance the status of photography as a true art form. But it left me wondering, why the curators decided to NOT include photographs of the 19th century in the exhibition (after all, the Pictorialist movement started in the late 19th century and not strictly with the year 1900).

Furthermore of interest: The NGC designed the first two rooms of the exhibit in homage to Alfred Stieglitz’ Gallery 291 with its distinctive look: with muted green walls, dim lights and curtains hanging low from wooden chair rails. The second room shows stunning portraits by Stieglitz, Edward Steichen and Frank Eugene etc.

The exhibition also shows photographs by the Group f/64 that followed a modernist aesthetic in opposition to Pictorialism. Edward Weston, Ansel Adams and Imogen Cunningham (I love her portrait of Frida Kahlo (1931)!) are represented with some of their most iconic photographs.

In the field of documentary, in particular Lewis Hine’s and Dorothea Lange’s works are worth to be mentioned. The NGC owns one of the best prints of Lange’s iconic “Migrant Mother” (1936) in which the baby’s face is visible. Also represented are photographs by Margaret Bourke-White, Berenice Abbott, Lisette Model, Weegee (I love the shot of the sleeping kids on the fire escape platform), Andreas Feininger, and the members of New York’s Photo League.

So, in case you are wondering why the exhibition stops at 1950: That’s because the NGC holds so much more interesting photographs from the following decades that they will get their own show. When, is not announced yet. I am already very curious to see works by Lee Friedlander and Diane Arbus then. And I am sure that this exhibition will be also worthwhile a visit – like this show is!

Preview: Karen Jordon "Slow Dance"

On my way through the Byward Market last weekend, I curiously stopped by at the Karsh-Masson Gallery. Turned out, the gallery is closed in the moment for the installation of an upcoming exhibit: Karen Jordon “Slow Dance”. It starts in two weeks, on February 3rd.

But when you walk by, you can get a first glimpse of her works; like a huge mountain of record tape spaghetti, an old radio, a tape recorder, and other audio equipment, arranged in the display window.

As the Virtual Museum web site of the Karsh Masson states: “Slow Dance itemizes components from the period of the sound and culture industry bracketed by the decline of record albums and the advent of compact discs. The resulting work both maps and predicts the accelerating pace of changing technologies and subsequently diminished life spans of electronics and communication devices. Jordon juxtaposes the intimate and abiding place music holds in people’s lives against the unwanted technologies left behind when material and utility are parted.”

Karen Jordon received her BFA from the University of Ottawa in 1992. She also joined the Enriched Bread Artists (EBA) collective in the same year.

Her work is process-based involving the collection and manipulation of her own, and other people’s, discarded belongings. Her statement on the web site of the EBA:

“Part consumer parody and part lament my work is a parallel system of acquisition and abandonment that reassigns values, meanings and possible histories. My objective is to disrupt the frenetic pace of our post-industrial world, to slow the viewer and myself, down, to create spaces that invite acts of contemplation or of simply looking.”

Looking forward to that show!

Three Must-See Exhibits… And Only Five Days Left!

First of all: Happy New Year! Isn’t it unbelievable how time is passing by?

In Ottawa, three must-see exhibits only run until January 8th – so just four more days to go! Take your last chance to visit these outstanding exhibits:

Ramses Madina, “Road Crew 29”, 2010, Silver Gelatin Print, from the web site: www.facebook.com/Public.Art.Ottawa, copyright by Ramses Madina

Ramses Madina – Night for Day: Road Crews @ City Hall Art Gallery

Ramses Madina’s black and white photographic series “Night for Day: Road Crews” already caught my attention when I visited the “Place and Circumstance” exhibition at the City Hall Art Gallery last June (http://visualencounter.blogspot.com/2011/06/place-and-circumstance-city-hall-art.html). In his stunning night photographs, he draws with light attention to the road workers who labour as the city sleeps enveloped in darkness. We see Ottawa by night in an uncommon way, like captured from an imagined landscape. Occurring in darkness, when most of the citizens are sleeping, these actions seem somewhat mysterious. The crew’s overnight activity ensures that the roads are ready for the morning shift to venture out to start its day. A stunning documentation!

Cindy Stelmackowich: Dearly Departed @ Bytown Museum

A bit creepy but also fascinating is the work of Cindy Stelmackowich that examines the highly charged visual and written language of mourning in the 19th century. She draws her inspiration from various historic objects in the Bytown Museum and her own artefact collection.

Stelmackowich’s digital prints and sculptures reconsider and transform traditional mourning objects such as Victorian hair wreaths, bereavement verse and women’s black lace clothing regarding the cult of grief and remembrance. Her findings like jewellery, wreaths and watch fobs were actually made of human hair, some of it most likely clipped from the heads of corpses! The widespread cult of mourning was inspired by Queen Victoria who mourned the death of her husband, Prince Albert, for forty years.

Quiet an amazing show!

David Askevold: Once Upon a Time in the East @ National Gallery of Canada

David Askevold (1940-2008) is recognized as an important contributor to the development and pedagogy of conceptual art. This full-career retrospective exhibition considers the four strains of Askevold’s exploratory journey – sculpture/installation, film and video, photo-text works, and digital images and includes key pieces from each stage of his career.

Like the director of the National Gallery, Marc Mayer points out: “He was a pioneering figure in the development of conceptual art in the 1970s, and continued to be an influential conceptualist throughout his career. […] For me, what’s compelling about Askevold is that he worked hard to maintain an independent artistic perspective in the exploration of new media. He believed in the role of the artist as unique in our contemporary set of professions.” (From the NGC web site)

Andrew Morrow on CHUO TODAY at 5 pm

I know it’s short notice, but there is an exciting interview today with Quebec painter and video artist Andrew Morrow: Today, Wednesday at 5 pm, on CHUO-FM89. Andrew’s work is currently on view at Patrick Mikhail Gallery.

THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN AND THERE’S NOTHING WE CAN DO TO STOP IT, is an exhibition of Morrow’s recent paintings. That’s his first solo exhibition with the gallery.

http://www.patrickmikhailgallery.com/exhibitions/2011-11-16_andrew-morrow/

Morrow’s classical landscapes and highly sexualized scenes are challenging (sometimes even disturbing) and demonstarte his sophisticated painting technique.

You can find a brief review on Andrew’s exhibition at the CUAG from last Spring here:

“Dunya (Part two)” by Ottawa-based artists Dipna Horra

Dunya (Part two) by Dipna Horra, courtesy by the artist

An old-fashioned, golden dressing table with mirror. A golden chair standing in front of it. On the dressing table plenty of handpicked red roses and yellow, white and orange dahlia floating in a water bowl. The flowers find their equivalent in the light orange flower design of the seat cover. We hear voices and sounds telling the tale of the Hindu Goddess Parvati.

Dunya (Part two) by Dipna Horra, courtesy by the artist

This installation “Dunya (Part Two)” by Ottawa artist Dipna Horra was part of an exhibition at the Pink Gallery, Berlin, this summer. The exhibition "...Into GOLD" dealed with the material and meaning of the legendary Gold. But the main focus was not the solid substance or a pure representation of gold; rather the spiritual aspects of this treasure. In installations of various objects, sound and video, the artists referred to larger narratives.

In Dipna's case, the story of her grandmother combined with the dressing chair and the mirror as symbols of vanity are strongly reflected by the shiny, golden metal. The titel of the work “Dunyā” is the Arabic and Punjabi word for the temporal world and its earthly concerns and possessions in opposition to the spiritual realm.

Based on a parable told by the artist’s grandmother, Dipna Horra’s "Dunya (Part two)" animates a found object with sounds and voices recounting a tale of the Goddess Parvati’s quest for material wealth. Horra’s interest in storytelling is combined with a background in architecture and multi media installations.

Dipna is an multi-media artist with focus on media explorations and interdisciplinary collaborations. She deals with identity issues, hybridity, and transcultural synthesis of materials and thoughts. Areas of primary investigation for the artist are space, time, myth and migration as they relate to cultural identity.

Dipna has completed a Masters of Fine Art at the University of Ottawa, with a focus in sound installations; and is now preparing research for her doctoral thesis. She has worked in architecture and art education in New York and Canada. Her works could be seen in Canada, New York, Dubai, U.A.E., Berlin and London, U.K. I am looking forward to see more of her installations!

To get an impression, take a look at her web site that is an amazing new media experiment: www.dipnahorra.com

Ottawa Art Expo 2011

Sara Chivot's booth at the Ottawa Art Expo 2011

Last weekend was the Toronto International Art Fair (TIAF). For 4 days, leading Canadian and international art galleries presented their artists in a dynamic visual art event. And so exciting: The AXA Art event exhibiting Vogue magazine photos by Erwin Blumenfeld from the early 1950’s. Blumenfeld I wrote my Ph.D. Thesis about! (http://webdoc.sub.gwdg.de/diss/2009/werner_a/) But guess who had no chance to go there? Me!

Nevertheless, I tried my best to get some cultural input last weekend and the advertisements for the Ottawa Art Expo caught my attention. Despite the fact that is tiny, tiny comparing to the TIAF, I was impressed with the broad spectrum of media, topics and approaches towards contemporary visual arts. And the artists had the chance to represent themselves!

A few artists in particular caught my attention:

Eryn O'Neill: I love her studio interiors!

Eryn O’Neill

Her interior studies of her studio with canvasses on easels, painting tools, folding chairs, step ladders etc. is amazing. She has been focusing on using the environment of her Glebe studio as the source of her current work. The tranquility and the impact of light that shines through big windows in the open space emphasize the artistic process.

As she states on her web site: “The above body of work addresses my practice through the role my studio plays in the creative process. I am painting the action that occurs before the work is fully realized. The tension that exists between the artist and the blank canvas, waiting to be activated by the artists hand is a moment that requires patience, determination and full autonomy. This is a time consuming and often frustrating experience.” In particular the paintings that show canvasses in verso caught my attention, reminding me at Velazquez’ (Las Meninas of course!) and Rembrandt’s studio interiors…

Also interesting are her oil paintings of reflecting surfaces like shop windows and storefronts…

http://www.eofineart.com/index2.html

Sara Chivot in her booth.

Sara Chivot

Mixed-media artist Sara Chivot, who is also located in Ottawa, presented her abstract pieces. They are rich in texture and color - I love her dark blue paintings! Sara uses natural materials such as leather, stones, handmade paper and sand to create exciting and unpredictable effects on canvas and on wood. The interesting texture of the paint layers are clearly made by using a palette knife.

http://sarachivot.webs.com/

Gordon Harrison in his booth

Gordon Harrison

Talking about the use of palette knifes and strong paint textures: Gordon Harrison presented his Canadian Landscapes at the Ottawa Art Expo. The exhibited paintings in oil are characteristic with his bold use of colour and remind me strongly at the Group of Seven....

http://www.gordonharrisongallery.com/

J.P. Leclair with some of his amazing assemblages

 J.P. Leclair

Really impressive assemblages were shown by J. P. Leclair. As he mentioned, he was strongly impressed by Joseph Cornell. Like this American artist, he’s juxtaposing unlikely objects in wooden boxes like door latches, nails, teeth, jewellery, figurines…. It takes him months to create his unique assemblages. His creations are paradox, ambiguous, and mysterious. He is also influenced by Dadaism and Surrealism, and in particular by the German artist Max Ernst.

http://www.jpleclair.com/

Louis Helbig before some of his aerial photographs

Louis Helbig

I also met Louis Helbig whose Aerial art photography had me already impressed in his exhibition at Exposure Gallery last February. (http://visualencounter.blogspot.com/2011/02/aerial-abstractions-burtynsky-gursky.html) Turns out he has German parents… So we could chat in German for a while. As inspiration for his abstract/figurative aerial shots, he mentioned John Updike’s ability to create images with words in the individual minds of his readers. This point if reception is very important for him. He is also influenced by photojournalism of Cartier-Bresson in particular and the Magnum Photos in general.

http://www.louishelbig.com/

A lot of the artists I talked to stated that the Ottawa Art Expo was a huge success for them and I have to say that there was really a crowd around. And this was Sunday at noon! It looks like Ottawa really has an audience for contemporary art – even though that I always hear that Toronto has an international flair and more dynamic arts scene. Great show and indeed more exciting than I had expected. Next year I will be there for sure!
