SUMMARY:Discoveries at the Doris - April 2024
DESCRIPTION:Discover beloved artworks from the Berea College Art Collection at the Doris Ulmann Galleries through a guided conversation led by Ainsley Golden\, BereaCorps Art Collection and Gallery Associate\, focusing on one or a few artworks from the permanent collection. For April\, the talk will center on Alexander Calder’s Sun\, a tapestry made in 1974. Calder was a leading figure in the modernist art movement of the early and mid-twentieth century known for his kinetic sculptures and emphasis on simplified forms and design. The tapestry in our collection is a rare example of how Calder explored those ideas in fiber art and textiles. \n“Discoveries” tours begin at 11:00 in the Dimitrie Berea Gallery on the second floor of the Rogers-Traylor Art Building on select Fridays during the academic year. These free\, monthly events are open to all – students\, campus community\, and visitors! Participants are encouraged\, but not required\, to register in advance at https://bctrace.com/explore/. \nFor additional information\, or to schedule a group visit on days other than Fridays\, please contact Ainsley Golden at goldena3@berea.edu or 859-985-3849.

SUMMARY:Picturing Appalachia: Views from the Permanent Collection
DESCRIPTION:Picturing Appalachia: Views from the Permanent Collection\, located in our Masterpiece Gallery\, centers artwork and artifacts that engage with the landscape\, labor\, craft traditions\, and people that have called the Appalachian region home. Well-known artists and photographers including Henry Ossawa Tanner\, Doris Ulmann\, Walker Evans\, and Aaron Siskind are presented alongside lesser known and unrecorded artists and makers who either came from or traversed the region and felt inspired to document what they saw. Though by its very nature incomplete – as all exhibitions are – this show seeks to highlight what makes Appalachia so beloved and special and to encourage visitors to think deeply about the rich\, complicated history of how this place and its people have been presented in visual art and culture. \nSpecial thanks to our colleagues at Loyal Jones Appalachian Center and Hutchins Library and our summer intern\, Joshua Kells (Berea College Class of 2026) for their invaluable contributions to this show.

SUMMARY:Marika Christofides: Life Cycles
DESCRIPTION:Life Cycles features digital collage-based print works by Oklahoma-based artist Marika Christofides that depict abstracted biomorphic forms in various stages of transformation. Motifs change and replicate across the works in the exhibition\, mimicking the stages of an organism’s biological development. The works in Marika Christofides: Life Cycles explore what it means to “become” through a lens that combines bioscientific concepts with feminist concerns and underlying personal narrative – asking questions about identity\, embodied experience and gender roles in an advancing world. The exhibition is on view in the Lower Traylor Gallery from October 23 through December 4\, 2024.

SUMMARY:Eddy López: verso(s)
DESCRIPTION:Verso is the reverse of something\, a coin\, a painting\, a photograph. Verso\, in Spanish\, is a conjunction of words that make up a poem. Eddy López: verso(s) is a print media exploration on the dangers of nostalgia and representation using photographs and writings from the Nicaraguan revolution and civil war of the 1970s and 1980s. Using archival war photographs\, the versos of these prints are used to obfuscate the horrific contents of the fronts\, critiquing the nature of representations of war. Through composite prints\, the versos of Nicaraguan poets and writers\, dreaming of a liberated homeland\, are layered into chaotic reflections of a lost revolution. A utopia\, fleeting\, in versos. This exhibition will be on view October 30 through December 4 in the Upper Traylor Gallery.

SUMMARY:Laura Colomb: Sinkhole
DESCRIPTION:Laura Colomb’s painting practice focuses on historic sites and preserve land within Florida\, a place she sees as one of many dualities. For Colomb\, the sinkhole embodies this duality. Sinkholes create crystal clear natural springs for swimming and diving\, but they can also destroy lives and property within seconds\, holding both intense wonder and terror alike. Laura Colomb: Sinkhole explores this contradiction and those contradictions inherent in our current and historic use (and abuse) of our environments. \nThis exhibition will be on view from January 22 through February 28 in the Upper Traylor Gallery.

SUMMARY:Liz Ensz: Ground Truthing
DESCRIPTION:Liz Ensz: Ground Truthing features works of textiles and sculpture that explore the semblance of place as understood through cartographic measurements\, embodied experiences\, and technological mediations. Responding to the Lower Traylor Gallery’s architecture\, and informed by the stratigraphy of the geological record\, this exhibition embraces spatial and temporal disorientation as a device for shifting perspective and learning to view the Earth’s past\, present\, and future as strange and unstable. This exhibition will run from January 29 through March 14.

SUMMARY:Artist Talk with Liz Ensz
DESCRIPTION:Interdisciplinary artist Liz Ensz will give a talk focusing on the works in their solo exhibition\, Liz Ensz: Ground Truthing\, which will be on view in the Lower Traylor Gallery from January 29 through March 14. This event is free and open to the public; no RSVP required. Refreshments and snacks will be available after the talk. \nEnsz’s work examines the complexities of the American landscape(s). Liz Ensz: Ground Truthing features textiles and sculpture that explore the semblance of place as understood through cartographic measurements\, embodied experiences\, and technological mediations. Responding to the Lower Traylor Gallery’s architecture\, and informed by the stratigraphy of the geological record\, this exhibition embraces spatial and temporal disorientation as a device for shifting perspective and learning to view the Earth’s past\, present\, and future as strange and unstable.

SUMMARY:Artist Talk with Laura Colomb
DESCRIPTION:Florida-based painter Laura Colomb will give an artist talk related to her current exhibition\, Laura Colomb: Sinkhole\, on Wednesday\, February 5\, at 4:30pm in the Upper Traylor Gallery. This event is free and open to the public. Refreshments and snacks will be available after the talk. No RSVP necessary.  \nColomb’s painting practice focuses on historic sites and preserve land within Florida\, a place she sees as one of many dualities. For Colomb\, the sinkhole embodies this duality. Sinkholes create crystal clear natural springs for swimming and diving\, but they can also destroy lives and property within seconds\, holding both intense wonder and terror alike. Laura Colomb: Sinkhole explores this contradiction and those contradictions inherent in our current and historic use (and abuse) of our environments. This exhibition will be on view from January 22 through February 28 in the Upper Traylor Gallery.

SUMMARY:reframing: women artists in the berea college art collection
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition has concluded but a virtual catalog and exhibition gallery can be accessed here. \nDuring the Spring 2025 semester\, students in ARH/WGS 243: Women in Art explored the roles that women have played in the history of art across time as artists\, as subjects\, and as active agents of change. Towards this goal\, we examined and questioned long-accepted models of artistic creativity\, scholarship\, and curatorial practice that have upheld the ideal of the “male artistic genius” which has largely resulted in the exclusion of women from the mainstream art historical canon. To better understand the structural barriers that have inhibited women’s full participation in the arts\, we have also looked to feminist scholars and curators who have worked to recover women artists from the past and to reframe how art history has been written\, exhibited\, and taught since the 1970s. \nTo put what we have learned into practice\, we turned to the College’s permanent art collection and set out to curate an exhibition of women’s art following a feminist art historical model – one that is collaborative\, exploratory\, recuperative\, and actively resistant to traditional narratives. reframing: women artists in the berea college art collection brings greater attention to the varied ways that women have achieved professional success and personal fulfillment through their creative practice. As these artworks show\, in spite of very real and challenging obstacles\, women have pursued art in order to pass down collective histories\, create and foster kinship bonds\, share their own perspective\, and challenge dominant discourses and representations of the so-called “feminine” experience. \nThis exhibition has concluded but a virtual catalog and exhibition gallery can be accessed here. \nImage credit: Rosemary Feit Covey (South African\, b. 1954)\, Reflection\, etching\, late 20th century\, Gift of Shelly and Gerald Elliott\, 2024

SUMMARY:All Peoples of the Earth: Selections from the Berea College Art Collection
DESCRIPTION:Housed in the Dimitrie Berea Gallery\, this ongoing exhibition includes over 100 examples of visual art and material culture that emphasize the connections and experiences that humans share across cultures\, time\, and space. Because our permanent collection is so vast (with over 16\,500 objects!)\, artworks rotate on and off view throughout the year\, so there will be something new to see with every visit you make to the Galleries. \nVisual art and material culture – the things that people design with intention\, creativity\, and technical skill – have for ages provided insight into our belief systems and social customs\, our long-held traditions and day-to-day lives\, and how we see ourselves\, and one another\, as individuals. By closely considering the items that people make\, wear\, use\, and value\, we can learn something deeper about our shared humanity. \nThe selected artworks and objects from the Berea College Art Collection on display in All Peoples of the Earth are organized not by style\, date\, or culture of origin\, but instead by categories of human experience that connect us across time and space. Viewers may notice overlaps in some areas\, instances where these thematic groupings blur. For example\, should a painting of fishing boats be placed within “Observation & Documentation” or “Labor & Leisure”? Does a vessel used in tea ceremonies fit better within “Belief & Ritual” or “Fashion & Function”? These gray areas underscore the multifaceted functions that visual art and material culture can serve\, while also reflecting and exposing the challenges inherent in curatorial work and\, by extension\, all historical inquiry. In resisting easy classification\, art challenges us to be open to the possibility of multiple interpretations\, not only about visual culture but about our world – and ourselves – more broadly. \nStorytelling & Mythmaking \nArt has always been an important conduit for telling and passing down stories. From fictional narratives and historical accounts to mythical tales and religious texts\, people have turned to visual media to bring stories to life in ways that are thought-provoking\, convincing\, and deeply moving. \nThe artworks in this section represent a wide range of storytelling methods and speak to how literature\, the written and spoken word\, and the visual arts are all intertwined. At the same time\, these objects challenge us to consider how stories from the past are continuously constructed and made over\, how familiar narratives might shift when told or illustrated in a different or unexpected way\, and how visual media contributes to our understanding of what we believe to be true about the world. \nThis slideshow requires JavaScript. \n  \nObservation & Documentation \nSince the prehistoric era\, people have been compelled to record their observations for posterity\, documenting the landscape\, themselves and others\, and their personal surroundings in ways both realistic and imaginative. Through a variety of media – from painting\, drawing\, photography\, and printmaking – this selection of artworks provides visual evidence of the human impulse to document\, to make permanent and personal\, the world around them. \nThis slideshow requires JavaScript. \nLabor & Leisure \nThe value and dignity of labor is entrenched in Berea College culture as an integral part of the College’s mission and identity\, reflected in our Great Commitments and the Labor Program. At the same time\, leisure – rest and play – is equally important to our physical wellbeing\, mental health\, and intellectual and emotional development as individuals. Labor and leisure are often intertwined in our lives and are yet another instance of the human experience in which boundaries are blurred. As the artworks and objects in this section show\, the tasks we perform and objects we use for “work” are not always that far removed from the things we make and do for “fun.” How do labor and leisure overlap in your life? \nThis slideshow requires JavaScript. \nKinship & Care \nHow do we care for one another? Do the objects we surround ourselves with play a role in our relationships? Can art and material culture reflect the deep personal connections that people share or contribute to emotional caretaking and familial practices? \nArtists and makers throughout history have used their work to express love for another person\, to document strong family and community ties\, and to craft artworks and objects that provide warmth\, nourishment\, and fulfillment to those that use them. The artworks in this section emphasize kinship\, the passing down of traditions from one generation to the next\, the shared household\, and the creation of community through common belief systems and rituals – and in doing so\, these objects have something significant to say about the ways that we seek to connect with other people. \nThis slideshow requires JavaScript. \nPattern & Abstraction \nWhat first comes to mind when you think of “pattern”? Like familiar plaid pillows on a much-loved sofa or the orderly stripes of a favorite t-shirt\, patterns can be found all around us. \nPattern is often rooted in a formula\, a structured system that repeats in predictable and satisfying ways. Abstraction\, however\, can be more fluid\, more surprising\, or even seemingly-irrational. Despite these differences\, pattern and abstraction have much in common in both art and everyday life. In viewing the abstract and patterned artworks in this section\, reconsider your first impressions. What appears like a haphazard arrangement of random shapes and colors might come into focus as a careful display of harmoniously balanced hues\, textures\, and lines; or you may find that an apparently strict pattern may in fact subvert expectations of uniform rigidity. \nThis slideshow requires JavaScript.

SUMMARY:Rosemary Meza-DesPlas: A Meandering Line
DESCRIPTION:A Meandering Line is on view in the Lower Traylor Gallery from September 3 through October 10\, 2025. Rosemary Meza-DesPlas will give an artist talk on Friday\, Sept. 5\, at 12:00pm\, and will host a drawing workshop on Friday\, Sept. 5\, at 2:30pm in the Rogers-Traylor Art Building. For more information\, visit our Events page.\n\n\n \n \nA Meandering Line features meticulously embroidered human hair artworks by Rosemary Meza-DesPlas. Artist Paul Klee once stated\, “A line is a dot that went for a walk.” In Meza-DesPlas’ artwork\, line is human hair. Line variations in her work suggest emotion\, texture\, three-dimensionality\, and movement. This exhibition showcases experimentations and documents the evolutionary process of working with the first fiber: hair. These artworks reflect material culture\, display sewing dexterity\, communicate figuration\, and manifest themes. Material culture of hair connects medium and meaning: this common fiber correlates to age and beauty. Identity and femininity resonate in Meza-DesPlas’ art. Her hand stitching can be contextualized\, art historically\, within the 1970s women’s craft movement; however\, she is translating drawing techniques into the sewn line. A self-taught stitcher\, she has sewn with her natural hair color\, dyed hair\, and graying hair.\n\n\n\n \nRosemary Meza-DesPlas\, a multidisciplinary Latina/Coahuiltecan artist\, incorporates fiber art\, drawing\, installation\, painting\, performance art\, and video into her studio practice. Through figurative artwork\, she amplifies the voices of women and their lived experiences. Socio-cultural issues\, gender-based burdens\, and political agency are explored through an intersectional feminist lens. The tenacity of her eight aunts in the face of personal tragedies and adversities was an early inspiration; their narratives contributed to her embrace of feminist ideology. Thematic continuity links Meza-DesPlas’ visual artwork with her academic writing and poetry. This written discourse provides a foundation for her performance artwork. In 2022\, she was honored with a Latinx Artist Fellowship by the Mellon Foundation and the Ford Foundation. Through the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts\, she was awarded a grant in 2022 to create and stage a new performance artwork. Her work has been exhibited at many museums\, including the Museum of Sonoma County\, Spartanburg Art Museum\, Marin Museum of Contemporary Art\, Koehline Museum of Art\, and the Art Museum of Southeast Texas. Meza-DesPlas received a BFA from the University of North Texas and an MFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art.
