www.seattleartmuseum.orgPicasso: Masterpieces from theMusée National Picasso, ParisSEATTLE ART MUSEUM, SEATTLE WA – Oct 8, 2010-Jan 17, 2011 The Musée National Picasso in Parisholds the largest and most comprehensive collection of Pablo Picasso’s artwork in the world. Housedin a converted 17th century mansion, the Museum isundergoing an extensive renovation, making it possiblefor their unprecedented holdings – much of which camefrom Picasso’s personal collection – to tour the globe.With its U.S. debut at the Seattle Art Museum, this exhibitionmarks a rare opportunity to view works from thisstellar collection.Pablo Picasso, the Spanish-born artist best known forhis contribution to the Cubist movement, is easilyregarded as one of the most significant and influentialartists of the 20th century. With a career that spannedeight decades, which included the tumultuous times duringboth World Wars and the Spanish Civil War,Picasso’s creative legacy is defined by his drive towardinventiveness and a fierce need to stay ahead of the curvestylistically. Approximately 75 paintings and sculpturesare complemented by a selection of prints, drawings andphotographs that embody Picasso’s eclectic range ofstyles and dedicated innovations.This large cross-section of work tells the story ofPicasso’s development as an artist and his impact on thehistory of modern art. Over 150 works represent nearlyevery period throughout his long and prolific career. ThePablo Picasso, Paul as a harlequin (1924), oil on canvas[Seattle Art Museum, Seattle WA, Oct 8-Jan 17]Collection: Musée National Picasso, Parisexhibition includes iconic paintings like La Celestina (1904) from his Blue Period, the Cubist Man witha Guitar (1911) and a 1970 self-portrait The Matador. Other works convey his evolution toward Cubism,the influences of primitive and African art, and evidence of Neoclassic and Surrealist styles.

COLLECTION OF GLENBOW MUSEUM.www.glenbow.orgThe Broken World of John WillGLENBOW MUSEUM, CALGARY AB – Aug 21-Nov 14, 2010 For the past 50 years, Calgary artistand retired professor John Will has played the “alpha male”for Canadian art audiences through mainly autobiographicalphotographs, performances and paintings. With rolesthat range from painterly sage to art-world outsider, he hascreated performance art pieces which hold the art world andgallery system up to scrutiny, as well as “bad” paintings, collagesand signs. He has treated with rudeness and wit thesubjects of sex, war, racism, religion, mortality, sport, anxiety,rock and roll, the economy, celebrity culture, the artworld, bizarre events, alien landings and personal hygiene.The Broken World of John Will features lithographs selectedfrom Glenbow's extensive collection of his artwork.Between 1962 and 1980, Will produced over 100 prints,each labour-intensive and demonstrating his technicalprowess as a printmaker. The Glenbow describes his workas being “in a tradition of artists who are satirical, subversiveand sometimes slanderous in their critique of society fromHogarth and Daumier to Ensor and William Wiley”.John Will, Flatbush Avenue (1977), lithograph,[Glenbow Museum, Calgary AB, Aug 21-Nov 14]John Will was educated in painting and printmaking inIowa, and was a Fulbright scholar at the Rijaskademie inAmsterdam and a Ford Foundation Printer Fellow at theTamarind Institute. Now a Professor Emeritus, he taught atthe University of Calgary for 27 years and continues to wield his influence over students, artists andthe Calgary art community.

www.barongallery.caJames K-M: ColouringBARON GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – Sep 9-Nov 29, 2010 James K-M is a painter, curator, interfacedesigner and educator who has exhibited his paintings, digital prints and interactive art internationallysince 1978. He creates optically interesting paintings resembling beadwork, wallpaper or floor tilingwhich he describes as being “about the spiritual in digital art”. His paintings have the strong minimalistpatterning of Agnes Martin and at thesame time are reminiscent of the kinds of iterationmade possible by computers. His backgroundin computer-based training, studies ofmetaphysics, and his interest in hard-edgeabstractionism allow him to move easily betweenthe worlds of hard-edge abstract painting, geometry,computer programming and aboriginalsymbolism.K-M states, “I see my paintings as contemporarypictographs and abstract icons of energeticfields”. Colouring presents 35 paintingsfrom the past two years, all square, 24 x 24 inchesin size, using stain and acrylic on plywood. AsEric McLuhan writes in a catalogue essay, “Theyhave been forged with geometric precision andJames K-M, Square Spiral (2007), stain and acrylic on plywood[Baron Gallery, Vancouver BC, Sep 9-Nov 29]they resonate with the probing explorations ofthe Op Artists”.K-M has curated five international digitalprint exhibitions of and is co-founder of the Digitalis Digital Art Society. Since the mid-90s he hastaught courses in creative process, media literacy, and interactive software. In 2006 he returned topainting full time. He will present a talk about his work entitled Where Does Art Come From? onSaturday, September 18, 2-4 pm, at the Baron Gallery in Gastown, Vancouver.

Ai Weiwei: Dropping the Urnwww.museumofcontemporarycraft.orgMUSEUM OF CONTEMPORARY CRAFT, PORTLAND OR – Jul 15-Oct 30, 2010 Dropping the Urn:ceramic works, 5000 BCE-2010 CE is a survey of work by Beijing-based artist Ai Weiwei that includesa selection of his ceramic pieces and photographs from 1993 to the present. Ai Weiwei is one ofChina’s leading and most outspoken contemporary artists. His work reflects the dichotomy of traditionalChinese values with rampant consumerismand materialistic ideals. The exhibitionmarks the artist's first solo show on theWest Coast.Ai Weiwei utilizes historic Chinese vesselsin artworks that express the uneasiness of modernChina as she redefines her national identityin a time of state-capitalist culture. His interestin classic Chinese art began in 1993 upon hisreturn to Beijing after spending a decade inNew York City. Shocked to find historicallyimportant objects in the stalls of flea markets,he began acquiring them for his satirical andsocio-politically charged messages.In works that bridge craft tradition and conceptualpractice, the artist treats 7000-year-oldAi Weiwei, Coca Cola Vase (1997),vase from Neolithic Age (5000 to3000 BCE) and paint [Museum of Contemporary Craft, PortlandOR, Jul 15-Oct 30] Courtesy Tsai Collection, New YorkNeolithic vessels as well as traditional HanDynasty urns like “ready-mades” through suchacts as painting a Coca-Cola logo on the surfacesor dipping them in vats of brightlycolouredindustrial paint. In one photographic triptych, Ai documented himself casually droppingan ancient urn. For another work, he ground old world pottery into a powder and stored the remainsin a clear glass jar. His methods of smashing, painting and otherwise defacing the archaic pieces pointto the recent demolition of historic landmarks by the Chinese government for the purpose of urbanredevelopment.

THE BIRDS AND THE BEASTSIf it’s Made of Bronze, It Might Last ForeverThis commonly held opinion in no way disparages MyfanwyMacLeod‘s The Birds, a beautiful 4.5-metre-tall sparrow couplenow perched daintily in the Southeast end of False Creek as thelast permanent installation of the City of Vancouver’s 2010Olympic and Paralymic Public Art Program.These new-tech avians are composed of polystyreneattached to interior steel structures. The birds might last forever,but because the technique is untested, it is uncertain howlong they will fare outdoors. Unlike metal sculptures that weremelted down by Chairman Mao and other leaders throughouthistory, who put having tools, weaponry and money ahead ofthe preservation of cultural objects, MacLeod’s sculptures cannotbe recycled into useful items.The title above reflects the mystique bronze sculpture hashad since the lost-wax bronze casting method was developedthousands of years ago. Memorable still-extant examples ofJoe Fafard, Royal Sweet Diamond (2000), life-sizebronze, in front of BC Turf Building, Vancouver, BCGALLERY VIEWSBY ANN ROSENBERGancient bronzes include: the small figure of the over 4,500-year-old Dancing Girl from Mohenjo-daro, India; the 1400BC figurine of a Cretan vaulting over a charging bull; andthe 179 AD over-life size Equestrian Monument of MarcusAurelius in Rome. Everywhere, the tradition is alive withfew modifications to the original method.The sturdy bronze bull, in the plaza of 475 WestGeorgia, stares at the viewer with mean, beady eyes, asthough a wrong move would make him charge. He standsin front of a high-rise office building that was owned by thelate Jack Diamond, a local businessman and philanthropistof high repute. Ever since it was installed in 2000, JoeFafard’s Royal Sweet Diamond has been lord of the businessdistrict, as he formerly was king of the pasture – juxtaposition being a recurring Fafard theme.I wish there was room to show Richard Loffler’s 2010enormous bronze of Calgary’s most famous bucking broncoOutlaw, who was ridden only once out of 71 attempts andwas the only bull ever to “ring” the closing bell in the NewYork Stock Exchange. George Brookman (past president ofthe Calgary Stampede) said in a May 28, 2010 CalgaryHerald article that Outlaw embodied Calgary’s “westernspirit" and that Calgarians are "bullish on Calgary”.The most moving bronze in Vancouver is DavidRobinson’s Equestrian Monument, a public art installation forthe 2010 Olympics on display at the Yaletown-RoundhouseSkytrain Station until at least late October. The thin horsehangs his head as if exhausted, and his thwarted MarinoMarini-style rider is immobilized within a ball of twine. Thework symbolizes the pathos of humankind’s contemporaryestrangement from other creatures, and is also an almostapocalypticvision of the inertia to save them.Myfanwy MacLeod, The Birds (2010), one oftwo sculptures made from polystyrene over asteel frame and coated with polyurea and paint,4.5 metres high, installed on Southeast FalseCreek Olympic Plaza in Vancouver, BC.David Robinson, Equestrian Monument (2009),bronze, 4 metres high, next to the Yaletown/Roundhouse Canada Line station, Vancouver, BCPHOTO: KARIN BUBAS30 PREVIEW ■ SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2010 ★ OPEN LATE ON FIRST THURSDAYS

www.touchstonesnelson.caAngelika Werth: Ladies in TentsTOUCHSTONES NELSON: MUSEUM OF ART AND HISTORY, NELSON BC – Aug 7-Oct 17, 2010German-born Angelika Werth is a fascinating British Columbia artist with a passion for costumedesign. She creates what she calls “wearable constructed fibre works” that include dresses, waistcoats,wraps and jackets with the convoluted detail and elaborate decoration of the Rococo period.Fashioning her pieces from rustic canvas tents, nylon tents, mattress covers and the vinyl “house wrap”used in the building industry, she applies herformidable experience and training to thebeautifully tailored gowns and jackets.Refined elements include antique buckles,silver tassels, and buttons and beads scouredfrom Paris flea markets.Werth’s dresses are ultra-feminine yetdecidedly feminist and political, much likethe 18th-century Robe Français, a doll-likestructure with hoops and petticoats thatenabled women to take up three times asmuch space as men and to appear moreimposing. Her Madeleines, costumes for historicalfigures like Joan of Arc, Josephine,Coco Chanel and Gertrude Stein, incorporateelements of imaginary engagement inphysical sports and activities. The currentAngelika Werth and some of her costumes [Touchstones Nelson: Museum ofArt and History, Nelson BC, Aug 7-Oct 17]exhibit explores the idea of the dress as a shelter or dwelling, and the costumes have hand embroideredlines of poetry taken from the 16th-century writer Christopher Marlowe.Werth started her practice with a three-year dress-making apprenticeship then worked forYves Saint Laurent in Paris. She received a degree as Master dressmaker-designer before movingto Australia and eventually Canada.

Flakey: The Early Works ofGlenn Lewis focuses on the first decade ofhis art production, beginning in the late1960s. During this time, his work blurredthe boundaries between media and betweenviewer and artist.

V I G N E T T E S • September/October 2010British ColumbiaBY ROBIN LAURENCEROBERT ADAMS: THE PLACE WE LIVE Vancouver Art Gallery, Vancouver,September 25-January 16, 2011 This retrospective spans four decades inthe career of one of the original proponents of the New Topographics,an art movement that emerged in the early 1970s to challenge romanticand wilderness-dominated notions of landscape photography. NewJersey-born Adams has focused his camera primarily on the landscape ofthe American West where culture butts up against nature in the form ofexpressways, parking lots, tract housing and other unsightly evidence ofurban sprawl.CONSTRUCTION SITES: IDENTITY AND PLACE Kamloops Art Gallery,Kamloops, October 18-December 21 Many factors, from gender andculture to colonialism and globalization, contribute to the ways inwhich identity is constructed. With its titular play on words,Construction Sites is a group show that asks us to consider, specifically,the relationship between how the place we inhabit affects who weare. Among the local and international works on view, consider KenLum’s poignant photo-text work exploring the idea of home.Robert AdamsKen LumDANA CLAXTON Winsor Gallery, Vancouver, October 7-30 Acclaimednationally and internationally, Vancouver-based media artist Claxtonwill be exhibiting black-and-white and colour photographs andvideos that explore ancient ceremonial sites in her home province ofSaskatchewan, post-colonial social justice issues, and representationsof the aboriginal body. Her images range from broad prairie vistas topowerful shots of ceremonially painted faces.HOT TO COLD/COLD TO HOT Charles H. Scott Gallery, Vancouver,September 17-October 24, 2010 The title of this exhibition of contemporaryMexican artists, Ruben Ortiz-Torres, Thomas Glassford,Melanie Smith and Gabriel de la Mora, reflects their use of cool,minimalist surfaces and hot, emotionally-charged content. Oftenemploying everyday materials, from old broomsticks to human hair,these artists work across sculpture, video, drawing and even chemicalreaction (a heat-sensitive bench that registers traces of the peoplewho sit on it). You think you know what Mexican art is all about?Think again.THE INTERTIDAL ZONE: PRINTS BY DOUG GUILDFORD Burnaby ArtGallery, Burnaby, September 14-November 21 Over many years, thisToronto artist has dedicated his practice to the exploration of his physicalenvironment. The delicate etchings and serigraphs on view take theirinspiration from intertidal life around Volger’s Cove, Nova Scotia, whereGuildford maintains a studio. Abstracted, delicately coloured and delineatedimages riff on the ebb and flow of the ocean and the forms and patternsrevealed in-between.Dana ClaxtonRuben Ortiz-TorresDoug Guildfordwww.preview-art.com PREVIEW 53

Practical Art History orConfessions of a Fine Art AppraiserChapter 23. The Case of the Potter’s PortraitsWhen renowned New Zealand painter Raymond McIntyre arrivedin London in 1909 at the age of 30, he had no real intentions ofreturning to his homeland. He had left New Zealand permanentlyand as an expatriate performed all the duties that his circumstancesrequired – he frequently wrote home to his father recounting hisexperiences and he tried to establish himself professionally.Muriel Avery arrived in London from Farnham, Surrey at age19 around 1930. Her artistic aspirations led her to find work at aLondon art gallery where she was required to burnish pieces ofpottery by Harold Stabler. Thus began her life-long attraction tothe tactile qualities of clay. During the war she applied to studyceramics at The Central School of Arts and Crafts, but was refusedin favour of those already in the trade. She was married in Londonin 1947 and emigrated with her husband to Vancouver in 1948.Upon her arrival she began to study pottery with Molly Carter inthe UBC Extension Department. In 1955 she helped found theAvery Huyghe (nee Muriel Avery), attributed toRaymond McIntyre, oil on plywood, 11 3 /4 X 8 5 /8”BY JIM FINLAYFINLAY FINE ARTWEALTH MANAGEMENTjim_finlay@telus.netAvery Huyghe (nee Muriel Avery), by RaymondMcIntyre, oil on oak panel, 16 X 13”BC Potters Guild (now the Potters Guild of Britih Columbia, which since 1985 has operated theGallery of BC Ceramics). During the 1960s Muriel, using the name Avery Huyghe 1 , received internationalrecognition for her works in clay. She died in Vancouver in 1981.A signed oil-on-board portrait of Muriel (Avery) by Raymond McIntyre attests to a prior meetingbetween these two expatriate artists. The painted image closely resembles a known photograph ofMuriel (Avery) taken around 1930, three years before McIntyre,then 51, died of a strangulated hernia. She may have modelled forMcIntyre (McIntyre is known to have taught privately to supplementhis income 2 ) in exchange for painting lessons, as it is doubtfulthat a young single woman supporting herself in Londonwould have had the financial resources to commission a portraitfrom such a well-known portrait painter. A second unsigned portraitof Muriel (Avery) from the same period and attributed toMcIntyre, supports the fact that she was a frequent subject andmost likely, a model. It is known that McIntyre painted manyportraits of women, probably on commission, which may haveprovided a steady although inadequate income.It is possible that the artist gave these portraits directly toMuriel (Avery), as it is documented that very little of his work survivedafter the late 1920s due to the actions of a fastidious housekeeperwho cleared out his studio soon after his death. Speculationas to the nature of their relationship may suggest a professionalassociation based on the fact that Muriel (Avery) worked as a secretaryand she may have acted in this capacity, perhaps on a part-time basis for McIntyre. McIntyre nevermarried and the existence of two portraits, both uncommissioned, of the same woman may suggest shewas a preferred subject.1 She never liked the name Muriel and when she married she took her family surname Avery as her first name and herhusband’s family name of Huyghe as her married surname. Thus, she was known as Avery Huyghe.2 Raymond McIntyre, A New Zealand Painter, Auckland City Art Gallery, 1984, p. 46Next issue: The Case of the Privacy of the Publicity Photograph56 PREVIEW ■ SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2010

www.elliottllouis.comBruce Pashak: justiFYD: Art Crimes in AmericaELLIOTT LOUIS GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – Oct 5-Nov 3, 2010 Bruce Pashak is a Canadian artist livingin Vancouver. His work ranging in style from painterly collagesto finely rendered graphite drawings overlaid with pastiches ofpaint, has a sophisticated, graphic presence.After earning a Master of Fine Arts at The University ofCalgary (1991) with a thesis titled The Dialogical Art Form:Mutual Annexations, Pashak has continued to explore conceptsof epistemology and semantics, race, male sexualityand gender through his artwork with exhibits at the PaulKuhn Gallery in Calgary and at the Snap Gallery and ThirdAvenue Gallery in Vancouver. Obviously a skilled draftsman,Pashak seeks to imbue his paintings and drawings with additionaltheoretic justification, claiming that drawing can bean effective voice for the communication of relevant socialcriticism, art theory and philosophy.justiFYD: Art Crimes in America combines graffiti with studiopainting. Pashak collaborated with graffiti artists, who spraybombedhis artwork, in order to produce what he describes as ahybrid art form – one that combines the work of two parties aswell as different intentions. The “vandalized” paintings seek toquestion the gallery’s role in determining their value, the appropriationof art images (both his and theirs), the authorship of theworks, and the criteria that determines ownership.

Conservator’s CornerBY REBECCA PAVITTFINE ART CONSERVATION, WWW.FINEARTCONSERVE.COMThe Use of Natural Dyes in Textile ConservationLike many other industries, textiles are going green these days. Natural dyes are enjoying a resurgencebecause of their sustainability and relative non-toxicity. For a recent textile conservation project I decidedto use natural dyes to get “just that right colour” to repairsome major losses in a First Nation Nuuchaanulth ceremonialcurtain which was displayed at the Morris and HelenBelkin Art Gallery earlier this year.*As can be seen in the photographs, the ground fabric of thecurtain is discoloured and stained, with large losses. One of theadvantages of custom dyeing is that the dirty-cotton colour sooften needed to match historic textiles is just about impossible tofind in fabric stores. “Dirty linen” is not a popular shade.Fortunately for me, the Canadian Association for Conservationhad sponsored a natural dye workshop at Vancouver’sMaiwa Handprints last year, which I attended. Now was thetime to put my new skills to the test.Dyes do not bind well to cellulose fabrics like cotton andlinen, so the first step in the process was mordanting. Mordants,from the Latin “to bite”, are chemicals that allow dyes toattach to cellulose. The mordant binds to the cellulose, and thedye binds to the mordant. Tannic acid is the mordant whichattaches best to cellulose and is always the first to be applied.Other mordants, such as alum or ferrous sulphate (iron) can beapplied afterwards to expand the colour pallet: tannic acid givesan overall yellow tone to the fabric, alum brightens colour andiron dulls it.All of this means that a single dyestuff can yield manycolour variations, making it possible to zero in on a particularshade if one is willing to run a lotDetail of curtain, after treatmentNuuchaahnulth ceremonial curtain, before treatmentNuuchaahnulth ceremonial curtain, after treatmentof tests. I began by making two large test swatches: cotton mordanted withtannin followed by alum, and cotton mordanted with tannin, followed byalum, then by iron. I made a series of test dye baths using materials Ithought would give good “yellowy-beige” colours, including calendula,black oak, coffee, osage orange and cutch. Black oak top dyed with cutch,on a tannin-alum-iron mordant base, gave just about the right colour.I dyed a large batch of fabric using the test results as a guideline, andcame up with a very satisfying match. This was rinsed well, dried, ironedand used to make underlay fills for the areas of loss, stitching the edges inplace with a very fine polyester thread.One concern with using natural dyes in conservation is light stability. Thetextile industry is also concerned with this, and has found that antioxidantsimprove light fastness. Tannic acid is an excellent antioxidant, but the textileindustry is putting their money on ascorbic acid – good old vitamin C.Improving light fastness is a worthy goal, but one can also look at light sensitivity as a good thing: naturallydyed infill fabrics act as canaries in a coal mine. If the infill fabric fades perceptibly, then the historic textileis being exposed to too much light.*See Backstory: Nuuchaanulth Ceremonial Curtains, February/March 2010 issue of Preview, p. 46.Conservator’s Corner articles are archived on-line at: www.preview-art.com.NEXT ISSUE: Organization: the first step towards Preservation.64 PREVIEW ■ SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2010 ★ OPEN LATE ON FIRST THURSDAYS

Enigmaticpeople in dreamlike settings are beautifully painted in a crisp surrealstyle creating visual intensity. His skillful draftsmanship heightens thedegree of mystery or sense of uncertainty in his subtle narratives.Stotik's work has been widely exhibited in the Northwest and is in thecollections of the Portland Art Museum, the N.Y. Public Library andYale University.ARCY DOUGLASS: CLOUD Chambers@916, Portland, September 2-October 23 In his new solo exhibition Portland-based Arcy Douglassuses minimal geometric forms to parallel the complexity of naturalsystems. A digital projection with two wall drawings, Cloud has a calculatednumber of possible visual combinations – an amount greaterthan the number of cells in the human body yet smaller than the numberof atoms on the planet. The work simplifies repetitious cyclesinto Op Art compositions and the shifting graphic forms evolve overtime reflecting a sequence of expansion and contraction.ALBUM – ARTIST PORTRAITS OF ARTISTS, THE ART GYM 30THANNIVERSARY EXHIBITION The Art Gym at Marylhurst University,Marylhurst, September 14-October 27 For the gallery's thirtiethAnniversary Exhibition, 28 artists are showing photographs, paintings,drawings and prints of some 180 Oregon artists. With careers spanningmore than six decades, artists like Jack McLarty and George Johansonhave depicted significant artists from their lifetime while a youngerartist such as Marne Lucas has dressed and staged her subjects, mixingelements of theatre and portraiture. Together these works “coalesceinto a composite portrait” as noted by curator Terri M. Hopkins.EVA SPEER: LANDSCAPING Charles A. Hartman Fine Art, Portland,September 1-October 2 "...landscapes bear witness to the scale of ourpursuits.” states Portland artist Eva Speer who contemplates the passageof time and our struggle to create a meaningful existence within it. Hernew paintings are lush and fluid, acknowledging the geological immensityof time through vast liquid-like "scapes" that are as much aboutaction as they are result. The works point to our relative minutenesswithin the space-time continuum. Speer defines “landscaping” as theinstinctive actions we perform as a result of life's “pitiless repetition”.ROBERT SCHLEGEL: NEW PAINTINGS White Bird Gallery, CannonBeach, September 1-30 Robert Schlegel's expressive interpretationsof natural and man-made forms possess a tension residing betweenthe representational and the abstract. He is drawn to the interactionof shape and contrasting line found in rural areas where structuresjuxtapose the landscape. The voluminous painterly forms and studiesof light capture an immediacy that provides a sense of place.Blending realism with the more formal attributes of painting,Schlegel's activated surfaces are deep and opulent.Eric StotikArcy DouglassHenk PanderEva SpeerRobert Schlegelwww.preview-art.com PREVIEW 69

Sylvia Kavanaugh: DancerEASTWOOD ONLEY GALLERY, VANCOUVER BC – Oct 23-30, 2010Sylvia Kavanaugh is a visual artist living in North Vancouver BCwho previously worked as a garment designer. Kavanaugh trained atthe Helen Lefeaux School of Fashion Design in Vancouver, BC andspent several years designing, manufacturing and illustrating herown clothing before turning to painting full-time. She currentlycreates figurative imagery layered with fabric, thread, wire and painton canvas.Dancer is a series of canvasses and papers whose boundaries havebeen treated like enclosures for figure drawing. Using the surfaceplanes of the artworks as her grounds and extending the imagery tothe edges of the “illusionary walls”, she illustrates what she describesas metaphoric figures, enclosed and contained by the artworksthemselves. Several of the works are reminiscent of beds or foldedcurtains with their rumpled, semi-transparent, floating fabric partiallyenclosing the nude women’s bodies.Kavanaugh was born in Saskatchewan. Her training has includedfull-time art and design studies at the University of Alberta in theFine Arts Program. She has worked as a graphic artist, illustrator,assistant to a television set designer and a design room sample cutterfor a garment manufacturer in addition to her work as an artist.

The New York-based photographer gained recognitionright out of graduate school, and is known for her idyllic photos of adolescent girls, women andtheir children, often unclothed and set in pristine natural environments. The current body of work,inspired largely by her son’s strong interest and fascination with trains, explores the remains of our commercialrail system and the nomadic cultureof hobos, street kids and train hoppers whobuild their lives around riding the rails.Kurland, who received her MFA fromYale in 1998, still shoots film, trekking alarge or medium format camera and tripodto locales that allowed her to capture freighttrains moving through incredible vistas.The images consider utopian ideas of freedomwhile questioning the romanticism of atransient lifestyle.Kurland’s work has been exhibited innumerous galleries and museums throughoutthe world including the Museum ofModern Art in New York and the Instituteof Contemporary Art in Philadelphia.
