SUMMARY:Intimacy: Photographs from the Collection of Joseph Goins
DESCRIPTION:The black and white photographs featured in this exhibition present images of intimacy\, examining the spiritual\, emotional\, physical\, intellectual and experiential aspects of this essential component of the human experience. A gesture\, a touch\, bodies leaning into one another; a white sun above the Pacific Ocean; a nude self-portrait hidden in the branches of a tree… how is intimacy revealed? Featuring works from the early twentieth century through the present\, Goins’ collection invites a deep questioning into our humanity and our being. \nClick here for details about the opening reception of Intimacy: Photographs from the Collection of Joseph Goins\, which will include a talk with Berea College graduate Joseph Goins (Class of 1986). The talk will take place in Presser Hall 128\, just across the street from the Doris Ulmann Galleries\, with a reception afterwards at the Galleries with snacks and refreshments. All are welcome; no RSVP required!

SUMMARY:Sketch: Contemporary Artists in Conversation with Emily Grace Hanks
DESCRIPTION:The Berea College Art Collection is home to over 250 artworks by Emily Grace Hanks (American\, 1886-1962)\, an artist\, educator\, and inventor who specialized in observational drawing\, painting\, and illustration. Though Hanks or her work isn’t well-known today\, her career was extremely multifaceted and provides an excellent case study of the pathways that were available to aspiring women artists during this era. In the summer of 2023\, Sara Olshansky and Esther Sitver\, two artists from the region who also specialize in observational modes of drawing and painting\, were invited to the Doris Ulmann Galleries as part of an extended artist residency. Working alongside the Galleries team\, Olsansky and Sitver studied Hanks’ work and archival materials housed in the BCAC and created a series of artworks in response to what they found. The resulting artworks – and the exhibition as a whole – explore the connections that can be made between artists across time and raise questions about what it means to leave an artistic “legacy.” What can we find when we look to the past? What can an archive reveal… and what does it leave obscured? And how can we fill in the gaps? \nClick here for details on our Artist Talk with Artists Sara Olshansky and Esther Sitver will join the Doris Ulmann Galleries staff to discuss their work and the collaborative curatorial process behind the exhibition\, Sketch: Contemporary Artists in Conversation with Emily Grace Hanks\, which will be open in the Lower Traylor Gallery from October 25 to December 6. \nSara Olshansky is a draughtsperson and 2D media artist based in Louisville\, Kentucky. She graduated from Hite Art Institute at the University of Louisville in 2018 with two degrees in 2D Studio Art and Art History\, and a minor in Spanish Language. She has received numerous awards and grants in support of her research and travels\, and her work is featured in several public collections as well as private collections across the U.S. Olshansky is interested in exploring addition and erasure of imagery on a single picture plane and how this technique might mirror construction and perception of lived experience and memory. \nEsther Sitver is a Knoxville\, Tennesee-based illustrator who merges vintage aesthetics with contemporary progressive ideas and humor. Her artwork explores the observable world through the female gaze. Her love for traditional pen and ink drawing pulls together her specialties: portraiture and figure drawing\, editorial illustration\, pattern design\, and plein air painting. Sitver earned a BFA in Illustration from the Ringling College of Art + Design in 2020 and currently works as a freelance artist and for the Knoxville Museum of Art. Sitver has exhibited her work around the southeast\, with recent exhibitions at The Emporium and Rala (both in Knoxville\, TN). When she’s not scribbling\, she can be found rollerskating and hiking around East Tennessee. \nClick through the slideshow below to view some of the works featured in Sketch: Contemporary Artists in Conversation with Emily Grace Hanks: \nThis slideshow requires JavaScript.

SUMMARY:Meredith Setser: Immaculate Crude
DESCRIPTION:Meredith Setser\, a fibers artist and art professor at Indiana University\, creates large-scale abstract textile works composed of handmade felt that explore the current cultural landscape figuratively.

SUMMARY:Margo Duvall & Katherine Strause: Around and Around Again
DESCRIPTION:Capturing ordinary moments with wit\, sentiment\, and tenderness\, the artworks on view in “Around & Around Again” welcome us into conversation about the circularities of human experience that transcend both time and individual circumstance: the moments of full freedom felt by children at play; the liminal space between adolescence and adulthood; the associations of ‘home’ that can be both fond and difficult; the strength we gain from a supportive sisterhood. \nMargo Duvall and Katherine Strause are both nationally recognized and awarded artists and educators from Little Rock\, Arkansas. Duvall (Assistant Professor of Photography\, University of the Ozarks) and Strause (Retired Chair and Professor of Painting\, Henderson State University) share an interest\, in both their pedagogical and professional practices\, in exploring personal narrative as expressed through ephemera and found imagery.

SUMMARY:Michael Reedy: Prodigious Piffle
DESCRIPTION:Michael Reedy is a multimedia artist based in Ann Arbor\, Michigan\, whose work focuses on representing the human figure in ways that lie outside of art historical tradition. The large-scale artworks in Prodigious Piffle pull from imagery one might see in cartoons or anatomical illustrations like those found in medical textbooks\, and all serve\, as Reedy says\, “to underscore the comedic tragedy of physical existence\, as well as the frailties that increasingly define our sense of self as we age.”

SUMMARY:Benjamin Cirgin: re-(c)leave
DESCRIPTION:Benjamin Cirgin is a multi-media artist currently serving as the Ceramics Area Head and Assistant Professor of Ceramics at Eastern Kentucky University in the Department of Art and Design. The works on view in re-(c)leave are inspired in part by Cirgin’s experience working as a designer\, carpenter\, cabinet maker\, stone fabricator\, art preparator\, and life negotiator. He merges this background with his ceramic process to create abstract forms and casts of significant objects\, functional pottery\, and multi-medium constructed scenes.

SUMMARY:Rediscover: Highlights from the Berea College Art Collection
DESCRIPTION:The artworks and artifacts on display in Rediscover\, located in the Dimitrie Berea and Masterpiece galleries\, celebrate the much-anticipated reopening of the Doris Ulmann Galleries. Each object was carefully selected to showcase the richness and depth of Berea College’s permanent art collection\, which contains more than 15\,000 objects that represent over 5\,000 years of human creation\, from the ancient world to our present day.   \n\n\nAs we welcome visitors from our campus community and from afar to return to the art museum for the first time since March 2020\, we hope you will find joy in seeing familiar\, longtime favorites of the permanent collection and in discovering new gems amongst the never-before-seen works and recent acquisitions on view. While making visible connections across cultures\, these artworks also engage in a dialogue that underscores the unique history of the museum\, supports the teaching mission of the Art and Art History Department\, and reflects the values of the Great Commitments of Berea College.

SUMMARY:I Am/You Are
DESCRIPTION:I Am/You Are\nTia Blassingame \nI utilize printmaking in the book form to address issues of race and of racism in the United States. I am interested in how racism has warped our perception and has melted into our vocabulary\, social structure\, and our urban landscape. I grapple with such questions as who owns opinion and memory and who is authorized to bear witness? \nEmploying a mixture of poetry\, typography\, printmaking techniques like etching\, screenprinting lithography\, letterpress printing\, and book arts endeavors including papermaking and bookbinding\, I examine African American architectural\, spatial and cultural history\, racial prejudices and perception. As many of my pieces deal with historical racism\, I employ period typefaces to create a look and ambience that transports the viewer to the appropriate era. Because of its tactile nature and deep impression on the page\, letterpress printing invites the viewer to connect immediately and then dissect the text and images slowly. \nDisturbing images and histories rendered using wooden or metal letters or an etching plate can be atmospheric and intriguing. Instead of repelling the viewer\, artists’ books can allow for a nuanced discussion on issues of race to unfold with each page turn. The reader/viewer can locate themselves within the book as they create their own path to view and connect deeply with the the book\, its text and prints\, history itself. \nTia Blassingame will also be giving an artist talk on her exhibition in the gallery. \n  \nExhibition Run: March 9 – May 3\nArtist Talk: Thursday\, March 26\, at 4:30pm \nImage: Proofing I Am artist’s book

SUMMARY:Time Marked
DESCRIPTION:Time Marked\nJelena Berenc \nThe show explores Being-in-time while passing through time\, by marking quantized moments. Within each quantized moment a universe of events are created and ended. Each mark on the drawing reflects upon particular event and collectively creates the piece\, which provokes an awareness of a very specific social\, somatic\, or scientific truth/issue through and in time. \nExcessive repetition of minuscule drawing elements\, are used to create larger works of art encompassing an overarching idea or fact. Most pieces contain tens to hundreds of thousands and even millions of particularly chosen drawing elements. The most fundamental materials are used\, like pencil on paper\, so that the focus can center on the idea and its execution process. \n  \nExhibition Run: February 24 – March 26 \nImage: Mark-in-time\, Pencil and radiograph pen on paper\, 2017-2018\, 2 1/2″ x 2 1/2″ each

SUMMARY:In Flux: Juried Exhibition of the South Eastern Fibers Educators' Association
DESCRIPTION:In Flux: Juried Exhibition of the South Eastern Fibers Educators’ Association \n“For a working artist\, an exhibition acts as a checkpoint – not an end necessarily\, but a pause in action. This SEFEA exhibition resulted from ongoing conversations\, careful examination of each other’s art\, and the joyful discovery  of our intersecting and overlapping directions. These were found not only in fiber techniques and processes\, but in our ideas\, concerns\, and driving concepts. This exhibition theme developed from the language we use to describe what we strive to achieve visually and what we hope others will experience in dialogue with our art. As a group\, we conscientiously create an environment that supports ongoing conversation and creative development. \nIn Flux is an exhibition of art works curated around the central idea of change and reflection\, it acknowledges those came before us and anticipates those who will come after us. The exhibition is intended to bring together art that explores and asks a range of questions from a variety of approaches. It travels from school to school\, because the individuals in this group are spread among schools throughout the region. It teaches because we as individuals teach.” \n— Lisa L. Kriner\, Professor of Art\, Fibers and Printmaking at Berea College \n  \n“When the many parts of a textile come together\, they create a structure that has both flexibility and integrity. The works exhibited by SEFEA members demonstrate the vast technical and emotional capabilities of fiber art. They show how the can stretch and bend\, without rupture\, to contain many individual approaches within a single community. The ongoing discussions from SEFEA meetings\, the relationships that have formed as a result of the association\, and the work that has been made and shared through forum of yearly meetings\, all speak to the connections made possible through fiber art practice.” \n— Amanda Thatch\, Textile Artist & Studio Coordinator for Textiles and Drawing/Painting at Penland School of Craft 2014-2018 \n  \nFor an opportunity to speak with some of the artists involved in this installation\, there will be a panel discussion on Tuesday\, February 25 at 10:00AM in the Lower Traylor Gallery consisting of Lisa Kriner\, Crystal Gregory\, Cathryn Amidei\, and Erin Miller. \n  \nArtist Panel Discussion: Tuesday\, February 25 at 10:00AM\nExhibition Run: February 24 — March 20 \nImage: SEFEA logo

SUMMARY:Re-Reading and Other Bookish Desires
DESCRIPTION:Re-Reading and Other Bookish Desires\nSuzanne Dittenber \nDittenber’s works engage in the dialectics of space—books shaped by their histories and contexts. Indications of domestic furniture and interiors allow for intimacy to take shape\, culling memories in relationship to reading. Paintings and sculptures of books carrying blemishes and imperfections demonstrate a history of receptivity to nuance and a sensitivity to touch and environment. Like an attentive listener\, these works are both responsive and wistful. And yet\, through a separation from specific sources\, the information that would normally connect us to universal ideas is absent. Her books become a blank slate onto which we can project our desires. Waterlines and dog-ears\, evidence of a personal rapport with materiality\, add trace amounts of mystery to cherished stories placed in literal and metaphorical cradles of collective knowledge found in our institutions and on our bed stands. \n  \nExhibition Run: January 21 – February 20 \nImage: Pink Spine\, Oil on canvas\, 2018\, 36″ x 24″

SUMMARY:Across the Space Separating
DESCRIPTION:Across the Space Separating\nKiana Honarmand \nI am a Middle Eastern woman living and working in the United States. My creative work address issues related to my cultural identity. I explore the space between the imagery from my cultural background and the Western ideals of my foreground. This is my hybrid portrayal of Middle Eastern and European art where two parts of my identity merge during this time-period in which these two cultures clash. \nMy work is a commentary on sociopolitical issues related to my life in Iran\, such as censorship and violation of women’s rights\, as well as\, the Westerners perception of the Middle East. These issues have deeply affected my life and many others. I talk about the censorship I grew up with by obscuring images from art history. I talk about contemporary incidents such as stoning\, acid attacks against women\, and imprisonment of women’s rights activists. Growing up in Iran\, I felt stuck between tradition and modernity\, as did many other people in my generation. Iran had already become westernized before the 1979 revolution changed the culture to a more religious and traditional one. \nMy work is influenced by my status as female growing up in the Middle East\, who is currently living in the United States. I consider myself a conceptually based artist. In the process of creating my work\, I make all my aesthetic and technical decisions based on my concept and ideas. I use different digital fabrication technologies such as Laser Cutters\, CNC Routers\, 3D Scanners and 3D printer\, in combination with the traditional methods of craft. \nHonarmand will also be giving an artist talk in the galleries for the opening of her exhibition. \n  \nExhibition Run: January 13 – February 27\, 2020\nArtist Talk: Tuesday\, January 14\, at 5:00pm \nImage: Decorum\, 2016\, Installation View

SUMMARY:Sharing Space with Authority: Proposals for Installing the Berea College Presidential Portraits
DESCRIPTION:Sharing Space with Authority: Proposals for Installing the Berea College Presidential Portraits \nA seemingly simple task\, to reinstall the Berea College presidential portraits\, is actually wrapped up in a complicated dialogue –one that does not exist solely on college campuses\, but in museums\, academic buildings\, and public spaces nationally and globally. How do we make every person who encounters a space feel welcome? How do we return spaces to those who had said spaces taken from them? Internationally\, monuments are being toppled\, murals are being covered\, and buildings are being renamed in response to these questions. Careful consideration of this dialogue has led us to think critically about the reinstallation of our own presidential portraits. Being hung on the wall of a building can give the portraits power over the surrounding space\, and\, as numerous interviews have revealed\, this power dynamic creates an unwelcoming atmosphere for some students\, faculty\, staff\, and visitors more broadly. \nIn order to begin the process of answering these difficult questions\, we will be holding a community event in the Berea College Alumni Building’s Baird Lounge. During this event\, we welcome and encourage community members\, whether that be the college community or community of the surrounding area\, to give us your thoughts on how you feel in such a space and what you would want done with these portraits. \nCurator Jennifer Reynolds-Kaye will also be giving a talk during the community event. \n  \nExhibition Run: October 28 – February 1\, 2019\nCommunity Event: Thursday\, November 21\, at 4:00pm\, in the Alumni Building’s Baird Lounge \nImage: Digitally Altered Image

SUMMARY:Feathers Fall\, Grass Grows
DESCRIPTION:Feathers Fall\, Grass Grows\nby Andréa Connell \nFigurines come into one’s possession to celebrate a birth\, a death\, an anniversary\, or any other numerous or commemorative moment. They become a stand-in for a story\, stories often held privately by the collector. Through my work I explore the complex narratives that lay dormant\, forgotten\, and suppressed in representations of our most treasured\, and often private objects. \nMy interest in commemorative objects\, particularly the hidden narrative of figurines\, has evolved through multiple bodies of work. I’ve approached figurines in different contexts –as monuments and as statuary\, as representations of experience and as objects of scale. From this perspective I see figurines engaging in both private and in public narratives; they fit easily in the family china cabinet but they can depict an image a whole community might receive. At their most authoritative they would make their way to a community plinth\, elevated and honored as a monument. I am interested in how figurines influence communities and homes\, on what they conceal and what they reveal. \nWhen I was a child\, I would sneak into my mother’s china cabinet and collect her porcelain figurines\, all displayed and beautifully arranged –painted birds perched on branches\, children innocently gazing off in wonderment\, men and women spinning each other in love and delight. I would remove the figurines from their cabinet and play with them like dolls. It never lasted long. When my mother found me I was always admonished with a familiar refrain. She would tell me the figurines were not for play: they were breakable\, they were precious\, they were valuable. Carefully\, she would place them back in the cabinet and shut the door. \n  \nExhibition Run: October 28 – December 13\, 2019 \nImage: Andréa Connell\, The Archer\, clay\, 32″ x 28″ x 19″

SUMMARY:Placed & Displaced
DESCRIPTION:Placed and Displaced\nAmanda Maciuba \nMy work is concerned with how the effects of purposeful human actions\, alongside uncontrollable factors of time and nature\, alter both the current landscape and human agency within that landscape. The accrual of our past modifications in combination with what evolves over those remnants leaves us with physical traces of past lives. It provides a history of the land and our interactions within and upon it that can be read and evaluated through careful observation. My recent work is specifically concerned with the landscapes\, communities\, development practices and environmental concerns prevalent throughout the Midwest and New England. By reacting directly to the landscapes and environments I am currently living in\, my work examines and critiques place. \nIn my work\, I begin with the landscapes most familiar to me\, where I am now\, and then expand my practice to include a broader understanding of changes brought onto our surroundings by human hands. I use my personal experiences with disorientation and dislocation in the various suburban\, urban and rural landscapes I encounter in my everyday life and share them with a wider audience. I question the sustainability of our current decisions and actions within the cycles of development and destruction upon the landscape.I call attention to the unique and irrational characteristics of locations\, both beauty and absurdity in the landscapes of our everyday. By combining my labor-intensive print media and drawing practices with familiar landscapes drawn in an exaggerated form\, my work reconsiders how the physical manifestation of our surroundings have come to reflect our disregard towards them and begin to consider an alternative way forward. \n  \nExhibition Run: September 9 – October 24\, 2019 \nImage: Fix Something Else Nearby Instead II\, Intaglio\, 2017
