SUMMARY:Gayle Kirschenbaum: The World I See  Exhibit and Walkthrough
DESCRIPTION:ARTIST STATEMENT \nSince an early age\, I was filled with wanderlust. I grew up near JFK airport. When we went to pick my parents up from a trip\, people were arriving from other countries who looked and dressed differently. I was curious to learn about them. Where are they from? What do they eat? What are their customs? My travels began when I was fifteen and I went to Europe for the first time to study art. I was hooked and have continued to travel the world. I soon developed a reputation for having my own United Nations. For me communication and connection are important. If we could understand each other\, we can create bonds\, not wars. \nTHE WORLD I SEE is an exhibit that includes images from three recent foreign trips: Colombia\, Iceland\, and France. The photos of France were shot during the winter in Dordogne\, the south of France. I was captivated by the old stone buildings and the landscapes. I love capturing images when the sun is setting or rising as it cast its golden light. When I was in Iceland\, at the end of September\, the weather was cold\, windy\, and rainy. As I stood shooting the wind was strong as the rain came down. There was magic in it all. The churches and Icelandic horses. Colombia was filled with color but the images selected include a man mopping the tile floor of a hotel and nuns being photographed in the square in Bogota. \nI love to connect with people through their eyes. The series of portraits are moments I made those connections. And then there are selfies. Discovering a bird perched on a rock by the ocean as the sun rises behind it\, I position myself so we are all in the frame.  \nI never know when I will see a beautiful moment that could be fleeting so I grab it and memoralize it forever. The sun moving as it reflects on the textured wall\, a person walking into the light\, or a shadow casted creating an unusual pattern on the pavement.  \nAs an artist who creates in several mediums\, I am a constant observer of life. I invite my viewer\, my audience to experience the world as I see it\, to feel what I feel\, and to find their own personal connection. It is my mission through my work whether in photography\, film\, or prose to take people on my journey and bring knowledge and joy.

SUMMARY:Jenny Tango and Juanita McNeely in Group Show
DESCRIPTION:The Difference We’ve Made\nNew Work by Trailblazing Women Artists of the 70’s  \nSHOW DATES: “October 13-November 9\, 2022 \nDATE: Thursday\, October 13\, 2022/ Opening Reception\nTIME: 5:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m.\nPLACE: Carter Burden Gallery\n548 West 28th Street\, #534\nNew York\, NY 10001 \nMasks are mandatory. \nCarter Burden Gallery presents The Difference We’ve Made\,\ncurated by Cynthia Mailman\, Vernita Nemec\, and Susan Grabel. It is\naccompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue\, with essays by Ellen Lubell and Andrew\nHottle.  \nEvents\ninclude A Night of Performances with Vernita Nemec\, Kazuko Miyamoto\, and Toki\nOzaki\, as well as Linda Montano on Thursday\, October 20 at 7pm\, and Meet the Artists on\nSaturday\, November 5 at 2pm. Gallery hours are Tuesday – Friday\, 11 a.m. – 5 p.m.\, Saturday\n11 a.m. – 6 p.m. \nArtists\nThe Difference We’ve Made highlights the work of Dotty Attie\, Nancy Azara\, Josely\nCarvalho\, Maureen Connor\, Betsy Damon\, Carol Goebel\, Janet Goldner\, Susan Grabel\, Carol\nHamoy\, Janet Olivia Henry\, Lucy Hodgson\, Joyce Kozloff\, Cynthia Mailman\, Carol Massa\,\nDindga McCannon\, Juanita McNeely\, Kazuko Miyamoto\, Vernita Nemec\, Senga Nengudi\,\nSusan Schwalb\, Dee Shapiro\, Jenny Tango\, and Sharon Wybrants. Their work represents the\ndiversity of creative expression with mediums ranging from installation\, painting\,\nsculpture\, performance\, and more. Through their compelling works these talented\,\nfeminist\, trailblazing artists cleared paths for generations of women. This exhibition\nillustrates their perseverance in their ongoing creative practice to this day. Marlena\nVaccaro\, Director and Curator of Carter Burden Gallery\, states\, “The Carter Burden Gallery\nopened in Chelsea in 2009 to meet a need of representation of older professional artists. It\nis the first of its kind in the nation\, exclusively featuring the vibrant and significant works\nof professional artists over the age of sixty. The women exhibited in this show are the\nshoulders subsequent women artists have stood and continue to stand on.\nIt is no secret that older professional artists are often under-recognized by the arts sector\nand given few opportunities to show and sell their work due to perceived limited\nmarketability and other ageism related factors. This can be especially true of women\nartists. This dually hinders economic opportunity for older artists\, while limiting public\naccess to unique artistic perspectives.  \nThe Carter Burden Gallery celebrates this community’s unique contribution and particularly the immense and enduring influence of\nthe pioneering artists in this show. As Maya Angelou said\, ‘I’ve learned that people will\nforget what you said\, people will forget what you did\, but people will never forget how you\nmade them feel.’ The outstanding artists in this show made future generations of women\nartists feel they could do it\, feel they could be part of the important work being done\, and\nknow they would be leaders in the conversations that would shape the art world.”\nAbout the Carter Burden Gallery \nLocated in Chelsea\, the Carter Burden Gallery is a program of The Carter Burden Network\ndesigned to give a voice to New York City’s re-emerging older professional artists. The\nCarter Burden Network is a non-profit organization established in 1971 by the late Carter\nBurden\, a New York City Councilman. Please visit www.carterburdennetwork.org.

SUMMARY:PRINT PAINT: The interaction of printmaking and painting by 12 Westbeth artists
DESCRIPTION:October 8 – November 12\, 2022\nOpening Reception Saturday Oct 8. 5pm – 8pm \nWalking Tour Artist Talk October 22\, 2022 3pm – 5pm\nPRINT/PAINT is an exhibition of twelve multidisciplinary and long-term Westbeth residents initially intended to mark the 50th Anniversary of the Westbeth Graphics Studio in 2020. After a two-year postponement due to the COVID pandemic\, the show opens with a new concept in Westbeth Gallery\, honoring the Graphics Studio and highlighting possibilities of printmaking by placing it in direct conversation with painting.  \nBeyond these twelve artists\, within Westbeth\, there is an array of communities and sub-communities dedicated to a continued and specific practice. PRINT/PAINT is ultimately a celebration of the versatility of artists’ practices that thrive in the creative oasis where lifelong experimentation is encouraged and expected. Residency in Westbeth has offered these artists a platform to share their expressions in print and painting form with freedom and support. PRINT/PAINT is an example of what can be when access\, funding\, and support collide with an unfettered creative process.  \n– from Introductory Essay by Izzy Nova \nParticipating Artists\nJuanita McNeely (b.1936\, St. Louis\, MO) moved to New York in 1967 and became entrenched in the city’s artistic community and feminist collectives. Her depiction of the human figure displays extreme physicality—pairing angst and pain in close tandem with a sheer pleasure of existence in body and mind. With the challenges of patriarchal discourse and illness from an early age\, McNeely’s art is a lifeline that transforms notions of who may and may not handle certain imagery.

SUMMARY:Lorraine O'Grady Has Always Been a Rebel The New Yorker Interview
DESCRIPTION:Photo credit: newyorker.com 2022 \nLorraine O’Grady Has Always Been A Rebel \nInterviewed by Doreen St Félix\nSeptember 29\, 2022 \nI wanted to ask you about your relationship to fame and attention\, especially the fame and attention that have attended your work in the past decade or so. When we think of Lorraine O’Grady\, we think of the gate-crasher. With “Greetings and Theses\,” the persona of the Knight—your second since “Mlle Bourgeoise Noire”—was anticipated\, so much so that the announcement of the upcoming performance was taken as the work itself. \nThere’s two different questions there. The first is the reaction to the reception of the earlier body of work. And that was very calculated\, of course\, because\, from the minute I got invited to be in this groundbreaking show that Connie Butler curated\, called “WACK! Art and the Feminist Revolution\,” I realized that it was going to be more important than maybe even she thought. I woke up and I said\, “Nobody knows who I am.” Connie knew who I was because she had been one of the young women at this organization\, wac\, the Women’s Action Coalition\, which I had been very active in during the early days and which she had named her show after. She always knew she was going to put me in the most important position of the show\, which was the opening act. You couldn’t get into the show without passing me. I didn’t want to be a one-hit wonder. I wanted to make it possible for people who had been impressed by what they saw\, or mystified by what they saw\, or whatever they were\, to find out more about me. I made sure that I had a Web site that was pretty extensive of all of the work that I had done up to that point. \nYour Web site is a living archive. One of the best artist Web sites. \nIt’s pretty extraordinary\, but that’s only because I grew up with the Internet\, believe it or not. I’m eighty-eight\, but I was one of the early adopters\, because I happened to just luck out and have a fellowship at the Bunting Institute\, at Harvard\, the year the Internet began. My first browser was Netspace One. That was 1994 and I’ve been digitized ever since. \nRead the entire interview HERE

SUMMARY:Juanita McNeely artist in PRINT PAINT show makes debut at Whitney Museum
DESCRIPTION:Juanita McNeely “Is It Real? Yes It Is” 1969 \n“For 90 years of its existence\, the Whitney Museum of American Art did not own a single painting that explicitly deals with abortion. But that has changed. The museum recently purchased Juanita McNeely’s “Is it Real? Yes It Is!” (1969)\, a mural-sized painting that recounts\, in a fragmented narrative spanning nine separate panels\, her harrowing experience of having an abortion in the early ’60s\, when the procedure was illegal. The painting will make its museum debut on Sept. 20\, when the Whitney rehangs its permanent collection. \nIn recent years\, a fashion for painting the human figure has preoccupied the art world\, with an emphasis on race\, gender and other urgent social issues. Yet another pressing topic in America has been curiously absent from art: abortion\, which became all the more timely when the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in June. \nDepictions of abortion are still rare in the art-history canon. Check the walls of museums and flip through the pages of H.W. Janson or other art textbooks\, and you are likely to encounter countless images of beatific mothers\, dimpled infants and a world in which pregnancies are not terminated. \nBut the subject of abortion\, which historically was shrouded in shame and relegated to the realm of unspeakable secrets\, has lately been gaining visibility in the art world.” \n– Deborah Solomon\nNY Times\nSeptember 10\, 2022 \nRead the complete article: After Decades of Silence\, Art about Abortion (Cautiously) enters the Establishment \nJuanita Mc Neeley’s work can also be seen at the Westbeth Gallery in the Print Paint Show opening October 9\, 2022.
