Editorial by Tom Starland, Editor and PublisherCOMMENTARYArtFields Results RevisitedLast month, the timing worked out forus to be able to print the results of the firstArtFields visual art competition, held inLake City, SC, but something happenedto ruin that only days after we launchedthe issue. ArtFields announced it wassuspending the People’s Choice award.As it turns out they had learned that JohnCooper of Rutherfordton, NC, had entereda colorized version of a well-known photographtaken during the Jewish uprisingin Warsaw, Poland, disqualifying his entryas not a work he totally created or owned.The top three award winning entriesbecome property of ArtFields and theydidn’t want anyone years later putting aclaim on a work in their collection.Some artists who believe in somethingcalled “fair use” (taking someone else’sart and changing it a bit) cried foul, but I,for one, am glad ArtFields will stand bya policy of asking for entries from artiststhat is totally their own work.So when ArtFields named KirklandSmith’s image of Steve Jobs, made fromparts of Apple products, the “fair use”folks cried foul again - asking what’s thedifference? Folks, there’s a big differencebetween Photoshopping a photograph andusing a photo as a guide to build an imageout of parts of computers, iPads, andiPhones. Try it sometime and you’ll seethe difference.Here’s the revised results for the 2013ArtFields:ArtFields $50,000 Top Prize! - JamesArendt of Conway, SC.Juried Panel $25,000 Prize! - LeannaKnapp of Juliette, GA.People’s Choice $25,000 Prize - KirklandSmith, Columbia, SC.That closes the book on ArtFields2013, but it doesn’t close the book beingwritten about Lake City’s transformation -a story we intend to follow.My big question about this event was- what will someone see in Lake City theday after the festival, a month after thefestival or before the 2014 festival? So, amonth later I went back to Lake City tosee what was going on. The short answerwas - not much on a Saturday.The opportunity to check out LakeCity came when on one Saturday I coulddo a grand tour of the Pee Dee taking intwo events and a trip back to the Art TrailGallery in Florence, SC, which had movedto a new location. You can read about mytour of the Pee Dee at my blog, CarolinaArts Unleashed at(http://carolinaarts.com/wordpress/).There wasn’t much of anything goingon in Lake City, but I was really there tovisit the Moore Farms Botanical Gardenfor an event and to see one of the invitedinstallations from ArtFields, a grassstructure by Charleston, SC, artist, HerbParker, that I had missed seeing. Hopefullyone day that garden will be one ofthe reasons visitors will go to Lake City,but for now it’s not open very much.Lake City is still working on banker’shours - Monday through Friday - not thebest schedule for attracting visitors. But, Idid find a flyer on the door of the Jones &Carter Building (one of the ArtFields venues)which will become the Jones CarterGallery, part of the Community MuseumSociety. That facility will present its firstpost ArtFields exhibition - agriART,featuring works by Joshua Vaughan, MarkConrardy, (who participated in ArtFields)continued above on next column to the rightand an installation by Vassiliki Falkehag.The exhibit opens with a receptionon June 21, from 5-7pm and continuesthrough Aug. 26, 2013. So there will becultural life in Lake City after all.I tried seeing if the ArtFields’ Gallerywould be showing anything soon, but Icouldn’t get a reply from them by the timeI had to write this. Small steps are betterthan none.Summer Has ArrivedI can tell Summer has arrived in theCarolinas, if not by the weather, by theslow down in the flow of information. Wewent from a high of 87 pages in May to67 this month. Some of that is due to thefact that colleges and universities tend tostop programming during the Summer,as well as many artist guilds that close upoperations during Summer months, but alot of it has to do with unseasonably mildweather. People are spending time outsidebefore the real Summer settles in and theheat is turned on. Yet, there is lots to doand see - as far as the visual arts go in theCarolinas. So be brave and get out there.Of course some folks missed the boatthis month thinking that we would extendour deadline due to the Memorial Dayweekend. Unfortunately, no matter whatholiday shows up, the calendar doesn’tadd any days to our deadline of getting thepaper online by the first of the month.The deadline is always the 24th of themonth - no matter what - even in monthslike February when that only leaves usfour days to produce a paper. I start workingon the layout on the day of the 24th,but anything that gets in by 5pm - gets inthe paper. The only exception is if someJohnny or Suzie come-lately arrives beforeI’ve finished the section of the paperthey might go in. The layout is always astight as a drum, so there isn’t much wiggleroom after I’m steam-rolling through thelayout. So get in on time, but my advice toanyone would be - get in early.The 24th of the month might seemearly in the month for a deadline, but ittakes some time to pull all the info wehave received by then and turn it into apublication of 60-80 pages. There’s noelves here to work on it over night.Our CoversThe last couple of months, startingwith our cover with works by Peter Scalaof North Charleston, SC, in March, we’veseen a growth spurt in downloads andviews on Facebook. May was no exception.Our April 2013 issue eventually saw180,289 downloads. It had already seta new record by the time I wrote lastmonth’s commentary with 178,607, butin the last two days it squeezed in a fewmore thousand downloads.The May issue is close to catching upwith the April issue, but hasn’t yet. It’s at178,647, but it’s hard to predict if it willget a last minute boost like the April issue.Either way it’s been a great three monthsof growth. I would expect the Summerwill have a big effect on our June issue’sdownloads, (downward) but you neverknow.Art or PeopleThe City of Detroit, MI, is almostbankrupt. Most of its debt is in the formof obligations for city employee pensions.The person who is overseeing the city’sdebt problems has floated the idea thatperhaps the city, which owns the DetroitInstitute of Art (DIA), could sell off someof its collection which could perhaps bringin billions of dollars for the city.The city owes 15 billion in long termdebt. It is estimated that 38 of the Institute’shighest profile artworks could bringin $2.5 billion, but supporters of the DIAclaim that without those works you mightas well close the Institute.It’s a no-win situation but some peoplehave suggested that the DIA should atleast offer up some of its works to help thecity out of its situation.I’m sure the Detroit has lots of otherassets it could put on the auction block,continued on Page 20RhettThurmanTHE SYLVAN GALLERY171 King St. • Charleston • SC • 29401Morning Has Broken Oil on canvas 12 x 12 inchesFor additional information843•722•2172www.thesylvangallery.comPage 4 - Carolina Arts, June 2013Table of Contents

Piccolo Spoleto Festival in CharlestonOffers Works by Cheryl Baskins ButlerThe Piccolo Spoleto Festival inCharleston, SC, is presenting CherylBaskins Butler Invitational: The Birdsof Desire, on view at the Dock StreetTheatre’s Drawing Room, through June 9,2013.Featuring this year’s Piccolo SpoletoSpotlight Concerts Poster Artist, this exhibitionis a compilation of Cheryl BaskinsButler’s recent paintings, drawings andcollages.According to Buddhist teachings, desireand its counterpart, attachment, underpinall suffering. Butler’s birds of desirewalk, perch, argue, feed and soar aroundthis basic tenet of Buddhist philosophy.The artist/bird-watcher’s study of this concepthas required her to journey outwardonly so far as her birdfeeder and inward asnear as her own psyche. Butler has madesome discoveries from her reflections andcreated works that are both contemplativeand whimsical. Her images are rich withgrackles and blackbirds, ubiquitous avianspecies that often pass a birdwatcher’sfield of view without a second glance.Butler’s artist’s eye, however, hasrediscovered these birds and she has castthem as strong visual and metaphoricalplayers in her work. They perform avariety of roles. Some are purely visual,illustrating the interplay of black objectsand color fields. Other bold, black silhouettesinvite the viewer into the scenes.Devoid of extraneous visual trappings,they connect him/her to the compositions’underlying concepts and actions. The imagescease to be about birds, and becomeabout us. They explore such human conditionsas distraction, doubt, aspersion, comfort,desire and attachment. This shift inperspective opens avenues for individualreflection and invites collective dialogueswhere questions may arise.In creating Aspirations, the acrylicselected for the 2013 Piccolo SpoletoSpotlight Concert Series poster, Butlerreflected on the latter concept- achievinggreater heights. She drew upon her yearsof observation, experience and personalimpressions of Charleston’s cultural,creative and natural heritage. The painting’sarchitectural features echo traditionand inspiration, components she considerssynonymous with the city. While substantialand time honored, these shapesare also lyrical. They possess elements ofspontaneity and asymmetry that representCharleston’s more contemporary visageand speak to her transition into the 21stcentury.For further information check our SCInstitutional Gallery listings, call the Officeof Cultural Affairs at 843/724-7305 orvisit (www.piccolospoleto.com).City of North Charleston (SC)Features Works by JimmyLeslie and John A. MalvetoThe City of North Charleston’sCultural Arts Department is pleased toannounce that landscapes by Jimmy Leslieof Shrewsbury, NJ, and stain paintings byJohn A. Malveto of Walker, LA, will be onexhibit at the North Charleston City Galleryin North Charleston, SC, from June3-30, 2013.In an effort to continually push boundariesand experiment, in the exhibit, RoadTrip - Landscape Paintings, Jimmy Leslieworks with diverse modes of expression.His body of work includes landscapes,portraits, and collages in oil, acrylic, watercolor,and mixed media. In this particularexhibit Leslie features scenes from theartist’s travels painted in oil and acrylic.Work by Jimmy Leslie“I love to get out of the studio wheneverpossible to take part in the traditionof plein air painting,” Leslie says.“There’s something about hitting the roadwith a small paint box in the same way theImpressionists did; just my supplies and adesire to connect with nature.”Leslie’s landscape paintings capturescenes of places both near and far, manyof which are visited due to the travelassociated with his position as ResidentArtist and Sr. Technical Services Directorat Colart Americas, Inc.Sometimes the paintings made onlocation stand on their own and othertimes they form the basis for larger paintingsthat begin to push the boundaries ofrepresentation and even become non-representationalimages. The paintings thatstem from these studies often share thequalities of topography and form becomesdictated by color, rather than the reverse.“Ultimately I look for these images toreference the locations they are based onrather than a strict verbatim translation; inthis way they become a record which ismuch more personal,” Leslie explains.Leslie received an MFA from theGraduate School of Figurative Art of theNew York Academy of Art and owned andoperated the Leslie Art Studio in 2006 and2007. After almost 15 years of teaching inthe Art & Design departments of MonmouthUniversity, St John’s University,and Brookdale Community College, aswell as working with gifted students inthe Monmouth County Arts High Schoolprogram, Leslie left the academic worldbehind.In January 2009 Leslie began hisrole as Resident Artist and Sr. TechnicalServices Director at Colart Americas, Inc.,the North American distributor of Winsor& Newton and Liquitex paints. As anartist with ColArt, he is involved withproduct testing and development and runsthe Artist Outreach program. His landscapes,figurative work, and mixed mediacollages have been exhibited throughoutNew Jersey, as well as New York, Oregon,Texas, Nebraska, Idaho, Florida, Missouri,North Carolina, Massachusetts, and NewHampshire.Leslie’s work has most recently beenseen at The Currier Museum Art Center(Manchester, NH), The NJ Resources HQ,(Howell, NJ), The Limner Gallery (Hudson,NY), the new Joan and Robert RechnitzHall on the campus of MonmouthUniversity (West Long Branch, NJ), andthe Paper World Art Material Trade Show(Frankfurt, Germany).In Recent Paintings by John A. Malveto,the artist presents a collection ofabstract works involving the resiliency ofhumanity versus nature and their eternalconflict to coexist harmoniously. Malveto’spieces are autobiographical in nature,thereby enabling him the opportunity tointegrate personal iconography withinthe compositions. His works include acombination of visually energetic surfacescreated through his own unique approachto “stain painting.”Malveto’s process involves applyingmultiple stages of poured and brushedacrylic paint to numerous sheets of glass.Stencils are used to cut out shapes fromthe paint once it has dried. The shapes correspondto a detailed pencil compositioncreated on a canvas. The cut-out shapesof paint are glued to the canvas, sectionby section, resulting in a finished paintingcontinued above on next column to the rightTable of ContentsFractureOil on Canvas, 72 x 66 inchesEva CarterStudioTHE TREASURE NESTArt GalleryExtensive selection of highquality oil paintings and framesat truly wonderful values.1055 Johnnie Dodds Blvd.Crickentree Village Shopping CenterMt.

From viewing elk atdusk in a back mountain meadow in NorthCarolina to a sunset-reflecting, gurglingbrook in Taos, New Mexico, these fourfriends have painted plein air in morninglight under trees with babbling magpies, tolate afternoon light in a field of lavender,to golden evening light in the vineyards ofNapa Valley.

In 1981, Harrington graduatedfrom Pratt Institute in New York Cityand quickly began his career in illustrationand painting. The artistic journey for Harringtonbegan as a young boy under hisfather’s tutelage with his formal trainingculminating in a degree from the PrattInstitute in New York.First embarking on a career as an illustrator,Harrington has had more than 500 book covers published includingsuch classics as Wuthering Heights, Prideand Prejudice and Room with a View.The transition to fine artist was a naturalprogression for such a gifted painter. Heexplores the easy solitude one feels whencomfortable in their surroundings throughcapturing unguarded moments, whensimple truths can be seen in a wistfulsmile, in the tilt of a head or in a pair ofdaydreaming eyes.Work by Evan HarringtonGlenn Harrington’s talents havesurely been passed on to his son, Evan.He remarks on his son’s first foray intoart, “I remember Evan at seven years oldsetting up his little easel in our dark yardone summer evening to paint the moon.

My father’s versatilitywithin his medium is rarely matched.I enjoy bouncing my artistic ideas off ofhim in order to test their adequacy. My fatheralways pushes me to paint somethingjust one step further, and that has made allthe difference. I thank him for all of hislove and direction.”Glenn Harrington and Evan Harringtonrepresent a small group of familial artistsin a larger tradition of men following intheir father’s footsteps. As Glenn noted;“from the Picassos to the Wyeths, art inthe family is not new. What is always neware the living perceptions and revitalizingdiscourse between painters as we seek ourindividual paths.

A reception will beheld on June 14, from 5:30-7:30pm.This retrospective exhibition illuminatesSeidler’s architectural legacyas Australia’s most important modernistarchitect. Seidler studied with JosefAlbers at Black Mountain College in themid-1940s and became a major proponentof Bauhaus principles of design in hisarchitectural practice.Walter Gropius (L) and Harry Seidler (R), Gropiuswas the founder of the Bauhaus and a hugeinfluence on SeidlerArchitecture, Art and CollaborativeDesign is a traveling exhibition celebratingthe ninetieth anniversary of the birthof Harry Seidler, the leading Australianarchitect of the twentieth century. Theexhibition traces Austrian-born Seidler’skey role in bringing Bauhaus principlesto Australia and identifies his distinctiveplace and hand within and beyond modernistdesign methodology. The fifteenfeatured projects - five houses and fivetowers in Sydney, and five major commissionsbeyond Sydney - focus on Seidler’slifelong creative collaborations, a pursuithe directly inherited from Bauhausfounder Walter Gropius, with progressiveartistic visionaries: architects MarcelBreuer and Oscar Niemeyer, engineer PierLuigi Nervi, photographer Max Dupain,and artists Josef Albers, Alexander Calder,Norman Carlberg, Sol LeWitt, CharlesPenlandSpruce PineLittle SwitzerlandMontreatChimney RockLandrum, SCPerry, Frank Stella, and Lin Utzon.The exhibition was developed by curatorVladimir Belogolovsky of IntercontinentalCuratorial Project in New Yorkwith Penelope Seidler and Harry Seidler& Associates in Sydney and sponsored bySeidler Architectural Foundation.Seidler’s work is presented througharchitectural models, sculpture maquettes,photographs, films, correspondence,books, scrapbooks, periodicals, drawings,and original sketches - provided by thearchitect’s family, Historic Houses Trustof New South Wales, The Josef & AnniAlbers Foundation, The Marcel BreuerDigital Archive at Syracuse University,and the private archives of artists NormanCarlberg, Charles Perry, and Lin Utzon.Harry Seidler: Lifework, a book bycurator Vladimir Belogolovsky with additionaltexts by Chris Abel, Norman Foster,Kenneth Frampton, and Oscar Niemeyerwill be designed by Massimo Vignelli andpublished by Rizzoli in March 2014.The following is a statement from exhibitioncurator Vladimir Belogolovsky: “Iwould draw attention to two reasons whySeidler is important and why he will alwaysbe important. First, it is his love forarchitecture, his position on following hisconvictions to which he was always trueand a mission to make the world a betterplace where architecture is a big part ofit. He was a real crusader and not just forhis own work but for what he believed– whether voicing his support for JørnUtzon’sOpera House in Sydney or protestingagainst unfitting addition to MarcelBreuer’s Whitney Museum in New Yorkby Michael Graves. And second, I think isreally important, particularly today whenso many architects are entrenched withtheir ambitions compromised and scaleddown. It is the importance of inspiration.Seidler’s vision was grand and he drew hisinspiration from a multitude of sources –art, geometry, history, and so on. I wouldparticularly stress the importance of art asan endless source of creative inspirationfor architecture.”New York-based IntercontinentalCuratorial Project promotes the roleof architecture as the vital part of concontinuedabove on next column to the right11I-26Table of Contents9226226Bakersville22622164I-40Rutherfordton Forest City7436 Columbus 2211117683919E221MarionLinville Falls22119ENewland194194 Banner Elk226Chesnee, SC221Spartanburg, SC18464321Boone 221Blowing Rock226103I-85The Julian Rose House, Design/Completion1949-1950, Wahroonga, Sydney, Australia, Steelstructure, timber infilltemporary culture and life.

The Bascom in Highlands, NC,Offers New Colorful ExhibitionThe Bascom in Highlands, NC, willpresent Southern Lights, a colorful exhibitionfeaturing works by Charlotte Foust,Martica Griffin, Krista Harris and AudreyPhillips, on view from June 22 throughSept. 1, 2013. A reception will be held onJune 22, from 5-7pm.A chance meeting of four artists at apainting workshop has resulted in the creativecollaboration that produced this colorfulexhibition. The artists have woventheir various talents and styles together toform the selected compositions, based ontheir common Southern roots.Inspired by the distinct sense of placethat defines the South, these four talentedartists explore color and mark-making intheir abstract expressionist art. “I carrywith me a sort of patchwork quilt ofmemories and experiences,” says KristaHarris. “Tastes, smells, snapshots of lifeand literature, whether real or imagined,make up my ‘South.’ That informs mywork.”Charlotte Foust explains her Southerninspiration: “I have a formal art education,but I always paint from a place that isintuitive, instinctive, raw and independent,and to me that is Southern.”The artists, joined together by theircommon backgrounds and interests, havedistinct styles, yet each person’s work hasa connected thread of line and mark. Theviewer will be rewarded by finding theseconnections in each painting. Each workwill complement the others in the exhibitionwhen viewed as a whole. Their mission,as Martica Griffin puts it, “is to makea piece that allows the viewer to feel theyare elsewhere - somewhere that they’venever been, somewhere they’d like to go,somewhere they’ve been but forgotten.”The artworks by these artists are basedon abstraction, making them open tothe viewer’s interpretation and imagination.Charlotte Foust says, “Abstractionhas a language of its own that speaks tothe nature of being human - our spirit.”Krista Harris adds, “Abstract art is truly auniversal language. It’s not as mysteriousor elusive as some people think. I hopethe viewer stands in front of the work andrecalls their own Southern memories, andat the same time, has a new appreciationfor abstract art.”Come meet the artists as they demonstratetheir painting techniques on TheBascom Terrace Saturday, June 22, from11am to 2pm, and during the same time onMonday and Tuesday, June 24 and 25.In conjunction with this exhibition,the Center for Life Enrichment (CLE),Highlands, will host a lecture by Steve Aimone,whose workshop brought the fourSouthern Lights artists together.

T A GTrenholm Artists GuildEstablished 1971www.trenholmartistsguild.orgAnastasia & Friends Gallery inColumbia, SC, Features Works byJames Dwyer and Michael DwyerAnastasia & Friends Gallery in Columbia,SC, will present Color Movement,an exhibition which features paintings byfather and son, James Dwyer and MichaelDwyer, who have spent a combined ninedecades creating abstract paintings, rootedin Modernism, with color as a primaryfocus. The exhibit opens on June 6 witha reception from 6-9pm and continuesthrough June 28, 2013.Work by Michael DwyerMichael Dwyer offers the following, “Igrew up in a home in which both parentswere artists and paintings by them andtheir friends always hung on the walls.Although my mother mostly put aside herprofessional art career to raise a family,my father was an energetic and accomplishedpainter all the years I knew him,only giving up his studio work at the ageof eighty-seven to care for my mother. Myfather also taught painting and drawing atSyracuse University for thirty-some years,including while I was there as an undergraduate.I never took a class with him,but I learned a great deal from my Dad,whether it was during dinner conversationsor trips to museums. Probably, mostof what I learned was just from the longtermexposure of having his paintingsaround the house.”“As a kid, I loved to draw fromthe time I could pick up a pencil and Ireceived enormous encouragement andsupport from both parents,” continuesMichael Dwyer. “Sometimes I’d visit myDad’s studio and make little drawingswhile he painted. Once, when I was sevenor eight, my father stretched a small canvasfor me to work on (my first abstractpainting!) while classical music played onthe radio and he worked on a large canvas.The scale of his paintings – often sevenor eight feet - made an early impression,too.”“A few years before my father’s deathin 2011, we had a couple of conversationsabout how we might be able to puttogether a two-man show, but we werenever able to make that happen during hislifetime. Before he died my father shippedme about thirty of the paintings he’d madeover the past few years. That shipment hasallowed me to finally, and very happily,assemble this exhibition,” said MichaelDwyer.Here’s a statement from James Dwyerabout his work, “Since space is the fundamentalcharacteristic of drawing, painting,sculpture, and architecture, I have longunderstood that eloquence in those formsis to be achieved through the structuringof space. Within the past ten years or so, Ihave stumbled my way into a style basedon low relief as its principal component.”“In low relief, I have discovered thatI can offer variable visual and tactileexperience controlled only in part by me.The viewer is invited to share in controlthrough physical viewpoint. Elementswithin a work change, or are perceivedas changing when seen from differentangles.

Earlier pieces often conveyeda feeling of forms drifting in space.Then, there was a shift toward using linearcomposition to create direction. I wantedthe viewer’s eye to move along a varietyof circuits and have experiences along theway. I also found from my earlier collagework, that I like the crisp, definitive edgesthat result from cutting shapes with scissors,so I began using masking tape for asimilar effect.”“Recent works often have a sequentialaspect that comes partly from a fascinationwith similarities between visual artand music. Thinking of musical compositionas one note followed by another, andso on, I wondered if this might be a basisfor a painting. Ultimately, I’m alwaysafter that transcendent moment whenabstract elements come together in a waythat‘s thrilling and somehow right.”For further information check our SCCommercial Gallery lisitings, call AnastasiaChernoff at 803/665-6902 or e-mail to(stasia1825@aol.com).The deadline each month to submit articles,photos and ads is the 24th of the monthprior to the next issue.

Sumter County Gallery of Art inSumter, SC, Features Works byJim Arendt and Elizabeth BrimThe Sumter County Gallery of Art inSumter, SC, is presenting two solo exhibitsincluding: Jim Arendt: Selvage andElizabeth Brim: Sewing with Steel, on viewthrough July 5, 2013.The Sumter County Gallery of Art isproud to present the fiber-based installationworks of Jim Arendt. Arendt received hisBFA from Kendall College of Art & Designand his MFA with a concentration in paintingfrom the University of South Carolina.He currently serves as Director of theRebecca Randall Bryan Gallery at CoastalCarolina University in Conway, SC.As an artist Arendt’s work exploresthe shifting paradigms of labor and placethrough narrative figure painting, drawing,prints, fabric and sculpture. The bodyof work to be shown in Selvage, definedas the edge of woven fabric finished so asto prevent raveling, is influenced by theradical reshaping of the rural and industriallandscapes he grew up in. These life-sizedfigurative works of family and friends aremade by meticulously layering strips ofblue denim of different shades. The expressionscaptured in the faces and the details ofthe garments, are truly amazing. Throughthe use of denim, a traditionally workingclass fabric, Arendt investigates howindividual lives are affected by changingeconomic structures.Work by Jim ArendtArendt’s work has been exhibited nationallyand internationally in numerous groupand solo exhibitions. Recently, his workwas awarded Best in Show at Hub-Bub Gallery’sEmerging Carolina, in Spartanburg,SC, and was included in the South CarolinaBiennial and the 701 CCA Prize 2012 at 701Center for Contemporary Art in Columbia,SC. His work will also be included inFiberarts International 2013 in Pittsburgh,PA, and the 2013 Textile Biennial in theNetherlands.Frank McCauley, SCGA curator stated,“If you followed the ambitious visual artfestival - “Artfields” in Lake City, SC, thatended two weeks ago, Arendt’s piece Jamiewon the $50,000 grand prize. It was selectedout of 400 artists from 9 Southeasternstates. We had scheduled Arendt to show atthe gallery a year ago.”Arendt offered the following artist statement:“Art is labor made visible. The order,planning and execution of art making servesas a metaphor for the labor undertaken onmy family’s farm. The land bound us to itand to one another. Labor became a tangibleexpression of our hopes. Art making is away for me to echo the cycles of seasonaldeath, unemployment, natural disasters, andloss I’ve encountered. The physical laborinvolved in the creation of these piecesmirrors the work I engaged in with my family.The scale and application of materialsevokes in me memories of the time whenthere was promise for our endeavor. Mymaterial choice seeks to create a greaterrelevancy between content and form.Denim was created to be abused, worn out,Work by Elizabeth Brimpatched, stained and burnt through with hotsparks. Its characteristics are mirrored in theindividuals I choose to represent.”The Sumter County Gallery of Art isalso proud to present the sculptural workof Elizabeth Brim. Brim was raised inColumbus, GA, and received her MFA inprintmaking from the University of Georgiain 1979. She attended the Penland Schoolof Crafts, studying ceramics, woodworking,metals, and finally blacksmithing. Shebecame an instructor and iron studio coordinatorat Penland in 1995 and now lives inPenland, NC, where she works as a full timestudio artist.Brim has taught blacksmithing at Penland,Haystack School in Deere Island, ME,and Peters Valley Craft Center in Layton,NJ, and has been a visiting artist at severalinstitutions, including the Cranbrook Academyof Art. Her work has been included inseveral important invitational exhibitionsand is represented in the Horn Collectionin Little Rock, AR, as well as the Mint MuseumArt Collection in Charlotte, NC.Karen Watson, director at SCGA notesthat, “Brim’s work was first shown at theSumter County Gallery of Art as part of thelarge-scale Tradition/Innovation exhibitionin 2009 that featured traditional arts andcontemporary craft. We knew then that wewanted to show more of Elizabeth’s work.”In a recent conversation with Watson,Brim talked about a technique of “inflating”metal she developed because she wantedto make a pillow. She heats two weldedpieces of steel in a gas forge and then forcescompressed air between the plates to inflatethem, imparting a light, delicate quality tothe work. She has been asked to teach manyworkshops on this technique, from St. Louisto Canada.Much of Brim’s work mimics soft fabric,feminine objects, as well as forms found innature and are made using a combination ofboth contemporary and ancient blacksmithingtechniques.About her work Brim states: “Tenacityand experimentation led me through a maledominatedworld of iron to a career creatingwork that references feminine attire anddomesticity. Inspired by my upbringing inColumbus, GA, my work is strongly influencedby my mother and grandmother. Theywere meticulous craftswomen working athome, sewing frilly dresses for us, enjoyingevery minute, and taking pride in their accomplishments.I take pleasure in breakingthe preconceived idea that blacksmithingis an occupation for a brawny man. In myown way I am following the tradition of theladies of my family. I use a hammer, anvil,torch and welders to make sculptures thatreference cloth, suggest narratives, and celebrateSouthern women of my generation.”Bringing exhibitions of this caliber to theSumter County Gallery of Art would not bepossible without the support of the Sumtercommunity. Special thanks to Stifel Financial,Sumter Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery,Turner Garage & Transmission, Zaxby’s,Mallie Jenkins and the Poinsett GardenClub for making this show possible.For further information check our SC InstitutionalGallery listings, call the Galleryat 803/775-0543 or visit (www.sumtergallery.org)MOUSE HOUSE, Inc.2123 Park StreetColumbia, SC 29201(803) 254-0842mouse_house@prodigy.nethttp://mousehouseinc.blogspot.comSpecializing in antiquarian prints, custom mirrors,and the fiber arts of Susan Lenzwww.susanlenz.comMOUSE HOUSE,FRAMES & ANTIQUARIAN PRINTSINC.Don’t see anything here about your exhibit or art space?

Althoughshe was writing about events taking placethousands and thousands of miles away,they seemed relevant to what was goingon here in the Carolinas. Her contributionswere very popular when we first ranthem and continue to be popular on ourwebsite’s archives. We’ve decide to revisitthem from time to time.A Few Words From Down UnderOn Marginal Spacesby Judith McGrath, first run in our Nov.2004 issueRemember when we first learnedto write, how each page in those littleexercise books had a red line down theleft hand side? That was the Margin andwe were not allowed to write in the spacebetween it and the edge of the page. Inhigh school we used loose-leaf paper andthe writing space got narrower as someteachers insisted we draw a Margin downthe right side of the paper too, for “correctionalannotations”. At college a typewriteror computer program was used andthe first thing we did when we sat down atthe keyboard was to set the Margins - top,bottom and both sides. The space for thetext got smaller still.In school we were taught only thecontents neatly contained by Marginswas viable while anything outside theseborders was, well - Marginal, insignificant.As we neatly wrote our new ideasand bold passions on the centre of thepage, those with old knowledge and assumedpotency wrote comments in thesidelines. The Margin was a symbol ofpower dividing master from apprentice;an elitist space forbidden to most of us asonly the privileged few could use it. Butsomewhere along the way, in the art worldat least, the status on either side of theline reversed. Today the Marginal spacegrows wider and more interesting whilethe space for the main text seems to shrinkin significance.This revelation came to me during thepast fortnight when I viewed four exhibitionsby prominent artists in three differentcommercial galleries, venues thatguarantee their shows will get text on thepages of art magazines and newspapers,perhaps even a scripted TV spot. In thatsame two weeks I was invited to; 1) selectthe winner of a regional art society’s annualdisplay of members’ works, 2) advisea private school acquisition panel on thepurchase of works by artists in the area,and 3) attended the studio of a prolificpainter to help him select exhibits forhanging in his third solo exhibition held ina hired hall. Of the gallery shows, I foundnothing to excite the eye or engage themind, despite their being fine exhibitionsby well established artists who have presentedthe same stuff before, and beforethat, and even earlier. Meanwhile everyexhibit I saw in activities 1 - 3 was a goodwork of art produced by a talented artist.These artists would be called Marginalbecause they are not represented by a majorcity gallery and rarely get a mention inany published journal. It was a busy timebut rewarding as I rediscovered that moreexciting art can be seen in the Marginsthen in the main.The periphery of the art world is anexpanding colourful place where peoplewith new concepts and bold commentaryfind room to move. Meanwhile those fewwho sit stagnant in the black and whitetext between the Margins, the “in” space,are oblivious of the fact that their worldis shrinking. Marginal artists get together,discuss their ideas and methods, listen tofeedback from their peers, and generallywork in a more creative atmosphere. Theyconfidently experiment with new mediaand techniques, push their limits or changedirection to follow where inspirationleads. They had me pitying the celebratedartist who finds every brush mark scrutinizedand questioned by non-practitionerssuch as gallery managers and art critics.These artists are fenced in by those withvested interests in their work; agents, collectors,competition. They are condemnedby the gallery if they take a lateral inspicontinuedon Page 26Carolina Arts, June 2013 - Page 23

Potters Bruce Gholson andSamantha Henneke will host the event,along with their mountain pottery “cousin”Michael Kline. “Cousins” is a contem-Page 24 - Carolina Arts, June 2013The Green Hill Center for NC Art inGreensboro, NC, will present Speaking inSpecies: A North Carolina Perspective,features the work of 27 artists, both seasonedmakers and the next generation ofmakers, working in wood. The exhibitionfunded through a grant from the WindgateCharitable Foundation, on view from June14 through Aug. 18, 2013.This exhibition, guest curated by BrentSkidmore, brings the art of woodworkingto a new level. Skidmore is an AssistantProfessor of Art, Director of Craft Studiesat UNC-Asheville and maintains astudio at Grovewood Studios in Asheville.He received his MFA in Sculpture fromIndiana University and a BFA in Sculpturefrom Murray State University where hewas first introduced to wood as an artisticmedium.Skidmore’s work and processes are includedin a 2007 Lark Publication entitled“The Penland Book of Woodworking.”He has shown his work extensively acrossthe country as well as internationally;showing in Finland and most recently inDubai. Exhibitions of Skidmore’s personalwork have included the SmithsonianCraft Show and SOFA Chicago.Skidmore, and the group of artists hehas selected for Speaking in Species, allbring an expressive language to the art ofwoodworking. “There are over 100,000species of wood; think about the opportunityfor an artist. Every specie ofwood brings unique qualities and expressivecharacteristics. With the 27 artistsassembled by Brent Skidmore in Speakingin Species, we get a glimpse of theenormity wood offers us in our lives andin art. From furniture to ornamentationand so much in between,” said Laura Way,Executive Director of Green Hill Center.Through the exhibition, Skidmorecaptures the role wood plays in daily lifeand its universality. “From cradle to grave,we interact, own and even inhabit thingsmade of wood. From early on, we mightencounter bassinets, spoons, bowls, ladles,beds, brooms, shoes, boats, and flying machines.We walk on bridges to houses inwhich we live, before finally being buriedin a wooden box under a tree. Wood isubiquitous, common and simultaneouslycomplex all at the same time,” he said.From his strong network of colleagues,Skidmore selected artists who embraceinnovation, longevity and creativity.Fulltime makers, industry specialists andeducators are all represented; each usingwood in unique ways. Beyond the varietyof experience and talent, the viewer willbe exposed to an unexpected culminationof sculpture, fine craft, instruments,illustrations and painted surfaces in worksboth large and small in scale.Skidmore said, “I wanted a mixtureof works ranging from traditional, like aWindsor chair, to the most exciting woodensculpture out there; works that wouldstand up well outside of the home boundaries.”The works range from functionalfurniture, like Richard Prisco and JohnClark, to the monumental sculptural workof Stoney Lamar. This is juxtaposed to thevisionary work of Elizabeth Alexander,Sylvia Rosenthal and others.Participating artists include: ChrisAbel, Elizabeth Alexander, Fatie Atkinson,Elia Bizzari, David Caldwell, JohnClark, Melissa Engler, Dustin Farnsworth,Brian Fireman, Russell Gale, Mark Gardner,Derek Hennigar, Robyn Horn, StoneyLamar, Timothy Maddox, David Merrifield,Brad Reed Nelson, Kurt Nielsen,George Peterson, Richard Prisco, NathanRose, Sylvie Rosenthal, Tom Shields, AlSpicer, Joël Urruty, Michael Waldeck, andRobert Winkler.Green Hill Center for NC Art is locatedon North Davie Street, in the GreensboroCultural Center.

She says, “As I beganthis body of work, an homage to Trees, Iwas thinking simply of my love for trees,their beauty, majesty, variety, their strongpresence. As I worked I thought moreabout the convergence of trees or forestswith humanity and civilization, how ourrelationship with trees has reflected ourhistory, our changing definition of ourSelf. An old proverb says something like,“I want to be part of a society where aTable of ContentsWork by Betti Pettinati-LonginottiNorth Carolina Pottery Center233 East Avenue • Seagrove, NC • 336.873.8430www.ncpotterycenter.orgman can plant a tree and his grandchildrenwill find shade under its branches.” Canthis be said of our society? Even withthese thoughts, I always returned in mywork to the beauty and joy and peace thattrees bring me. “Blackwell-Chapman is a sculptural artistfrom Forsyth County, NC. She earneda BA in English Literature from GoucherCollege, and an MA in Motion Picturefrom Northwestern University in Chicago.She has studied sculpture, both ceramicsand book arts, at Penland, UNC-G,Arrowmont, Shakerag, and the SawtoothCenter for Visual Design. Her works arein collections in Virginia, West Virginia,Washington, DC, North Carolina, Georgia,and France.

She states: “At the crossroadsof a controversial intersection of prayerand the political, this work makes a statementabout the horrific culture of deathour nation and world encounter in thisgeneration. It confronts me, as to many,with profound grieving. My grieving asksquestions of our society, that allows thiskind of unspeakable horror as reality, andmy questions unanswered become visualprayers.

It’s a case of once theirnames are in large font on the main pagethey must remain immobile. Safe withinthe Margins is a confined, narrow space.The past fortnight has also brought tomy attention how the Margins of the artworld are not just creative or practical,they are also geographical. My city sits onthe edge of a continent, pressed betweenocean and desert. East of the busy urbancentre are the hilly suburbs with theirattending villages, further inland is therural sector and its small towns. So I findit ironic that galleries located in the mostisolated capital city in the world shoulddiscriminate against exhibitions held insuburban or country exhibition spaces.Yes there are the tourist shops that callthemselves “art galleries” but there arealso viable and valuable venues that caterfor their region’s serious artists. I canthink of two art galleries in this state’s rural“wine region” that do very well thanksto national and international visitors. Andthey often exhibit works by Marginal artists.Although the art market in the city involvesbig bucks, the peripheral practitionershave a larger turnover of work and abroader customer base. The Marginalizedcan access more venues more often whileartists locked in gallery stables have oneexposure point available once a year atmost. During the last two weeks I noticedhow few visitors attended the galleriesduring the time I spent in each, reviewingexhibitions and listening to complaintsabout business being slow. Meanwhile theArt Society had a fair number of attendees(not all co-oped members of artists’families) and an abundance of “sold”stickers, the artist planning his third soloexpects it will be as financially successfulas the previous two, and the private schoolis compiling an eclectic art collection thatprovides a comprehensive lesson for itsstudents on what constitutes good art.I have learned anew that those who liveand practice their art in the Margins areable to stretch their minds and extend theirtalents in a fertile space. I’ve rediscoveredhow their efforts are recognized bya growing audience of appreciators whobuy art for the pleasure it gives not as aninvestment. The Marginal space growswider and fuller, my hope is it will oneday obliterate the “centre” so all artistscan produce their best with the sameamount of freedom.Judith McGrath lives in Kalamunda,Western Australia, 25 minutes east ofPerth.

I thenrealized in our current society, film was avery important form of art able to reachand touch the public like those works didand continue to do.”Being both an exhibiting professionalartist and filmmaker he has had a wideresumé including past positions includinga newspaper art columnist, guitar teacher,radio personality, art editor, theatrepainter, magazine photographer, museumprogram coordinator and museum director.Galloway admits, “My resumé is abit diverse to say the least. It worked outquite well really. Without realizing it Iwas learning the many multiple aspects ofmany forms of art. These not only give mepurpose, but happiness in life. I know itall may sound a bit verbose, but it makes alot of sense, at least to me.”Galloway has received numeroushonors and awards in his work as botha filmmaker and artist. He has pieces inthe U.S.C.S. permanent collection andhis work has been published in variousmagazines and books including Writer’sInc. 6 years in a row, one of which wasfeatured on the cover. His pieces havebeen featured in juried art competitionsas well as solo art shows.

It has provided a safe placewhere kids can go after school and begiven the creative freedom to paint, draw,make ceramics, work with the digital arts,and do countless other forms of visual art.They are provided with a studio, professionalsupplies and professional instruction.The main studio is at Chapman CulturalCenter in Spartanburg and is openyear-round, Monday through Thursday,3-6pm. However, the need and interesthave both grown during this time, andnow there are 10 other COLORS satellitestudios throughout the county in churches,schools and other community gatheringplaces. One of the biggest challenges hasalways been transportation: getting thePage 28 - Carolina Arts, June 2013Work by Nathan Gallowayplace awards and numerous HonorableMentions and Purchase Awards.When asked about his artistic perspective,Galloway says, “‘Art is eitherPlagiarism or Revolution’. However, Istrive to think of ways of straddling thisPaul Gauguin quote and delivering anexperience to the viewer that is novel andwill leave them with a lasting impression.I am constantly searching for similarlyappearing objects that have a very dissonantmeanings or association. The ideaof dichotomy combined with the doubleimagery of shapes or underlying compositionis very intriguing to me. Most worksI commit to usually have a familiar icon,artwork or image at their root.”For further information check ourSC Institutional Gallery listings, call theGuild at 864/764-9568 or visit(www.artistsguildofspartanburg.com).Spartanburg Art Museum inSpartanburg, SC, Celebrates 20Years of COLORS Outreach ProgramWork by Michael SmithWork by Maddie Daviskids to the downtown studio. The solution:create more studios in their microcommunities.The program’s mission and purposewere obvious: provide the ways andmeans for kids to be creative. The endresult has been art that has stunned theworld and children who grew up to bebetter citizens. “Every child is a successstory at COLORS,” Laura Pinkley, theprogram’s founder said. “Each participantwho comes to COLORS, rather than goinghome after school to watch televisionor play in an unsupervised environment,is safer in our studios. But we also havemore long-term success stories: Formerstudents who are now in their 20s and 30shave become professionals in our community,some even in the field of art.”The program was modeled after asimilar one in Harlem in New YorkCity.

This effort is sometimes enhancedby the use of hand-cut paper layeredon the canvas, creating true depth.

Sheasked herself why she kept the variety ofdresses, and the exhibit seeks to answerthat question. Dresses can be a touchstoneor even a talisman for memory whichinspired her to create her series and performancepiece.

Working primarilyin ceramics, her work is based upon thenotion of the human body being a shelterfor the soul.Luce’s current body of work titledPrimoris Ortus explores concerns aboutfragility and femininity and its relation tothe concept of eternity. The idea comesfrom the story of the Garden of Edenand explores issues regarding the frailtyof the body and the fallibility of man.From afar, her pieces seem to be beautifulflowers of different shapes and colorsintertwined with each other, but on closerinspection, the intricate details and flowersbegin to look more like snakes and vines.Using clay as a metaphor for the body, shecreates hollow structures that are symbolicof the body and soul.“These sculptures are about birth,growth and temptation,” says Luce. “It isthis play between innocence and experiencethat forms the basis of my work. Mylife has been rooted in family issues andhousehold concerns. These experiencesare what shape my art making as I callinto question embedded attitudes, opinionsand beliefs regarding the value ofwoman’s work, the messages and mythsregarding family, as well as how longingand nostalgia influence our memory.”Luce graduated with dual BFA degreesin Painting and Art History from OhioUniversity, and holds her MFA from HunterCollege, City University of New York.She currently lives in Charlotte, NC,where she is a studio artist and an adjunctart instructor. She has shown her work insolo and group exhibitions and her work isincluded in private collections.Luce has been a resident artist at theInternational Ceramic Research Centerin Skaelskør, Denmark, the Zentrum fürKeramik-Berlin, Germany, and the ShawInternational Centre for ContemporaryCeramics at the Medalta InternationalArtists in Residence in Medicine Hat,Alberta, Canada.

Embedded attitudes,opinions and beliefs regarding the valueof woman’s work, the ordinariness ofdaily life, the significance of memory, andthe role of nature and nurture in shapingcultural norms are what interest me,” saysRyba.Using gouache or egg tempera on vellumwith gold leaf, Ryba creates her ownframing. Studying the altarpiece predellasand illuminated manuscripts and infusingthat manner of imagery with the photographscreate the results seen in SignificantMoments. The photographs used arethose that document Ryba’s childhood andfamily life. She examines cultural roles,relationships, and common experiencessuch as growth, transition, and change andhow the behaviors and roles we acceptas natural have become embedded in ourpsyches and shape our identities. Religion,cultural messages, myths and iconographyare combined with the imagery from thephotographic collection to produce newworks of art in the manner of the Medievaland Renaissance illuminations.Ryba says, “I reconstruct a reality froma borrowed memory and combine personalmemory with family history. It seems tome a special gift to use these photographsin this way. It is an honor to my parents’memory and more importantly a way toexamine and question the culture and idealsof that period of our collective historyin which many of us were shaped.”Ryba received her BA from Collegeof Charleston, graduating MagnaCum Laude, and her MFA from VermontCollege in Montpelier, VT.

From its origins with thelate Enfield, NC, collector Robert Lynch tothe present, the collection has evolved andgrown to three hundred and thirty pieces ofart from the greater Coastal Plain, Richmond,VA, to Charleston, SC, and west tothe Piedmont.Our acquisitions are carefully selectedto represent the best, most inventive, andimaginative art made by the unschooled andself-taught artists found in the folk cultureand fringes of this extended community.Visionary implies the art transcends anddefies the ordinary in some way, maybeby personal circumstance, overcomingdisability, poverty, or driven by obsessivecreative need.Self-taught visionary art is largelyunmediated by mainstream trends in art andculture. In fact many of the Four Sisters artistsnever declared themselves to be artists;such status was conferred to them by othersand the curatorial concerns of the gallery.For some artists their productivity is a lifecommitment, for some it may be a creativephase in an other-directed life; there is noset pattern. What they have made with theirhands is testament to who they are in aworld that more often than not fails to recognizethem as commentators of their time.We are grateful to the support and generosityof the College, Gallery Friends, privatedonors, artists and their families. Suchsupport gives acknowledgement to theseartists and often overlooked individuals inour community. Several years ago the MaryDuke Biddle Foundation, Wesleyan and theNational Endowment for the Arts financeda comprehensive catalogue of the collec-Work by K L Harleytion.

In her paintings, Pat Merrimanhonors life transitions and shifts. Shelooks back in order to look forward tothe future. “Always a colorist, my stilllife paintings reflect backward glances atpottery with memories of childhood. Thenature/landscape scenes reflect the future.They represent new ways to hold a brush/palette knife and strokes that save myback and energy. The nature scenes alsoreflect a synergy between the abstract andthe representational. I want viewers tosee some essence, the spirit, of what I andthey see when we are viewing our world,the world I choose to share with others. “Susan Hope’s new glassworks combineher history as illustrator with her passionfor repurposing materials. “One of mygreatest joys is making something outof nothing. There is great satisfaction inrepurposing something and being an illustratorat heart I find combining the twoabsolutely mesmerizing. From originalpen and ink drawings are created threedimensional cast glass blocks which arethen framed in discarded drawers, windowsashes, boxes or some other miscellaneousitem that called for rebirth. ‘Presentment’…theway in which something ispresented gives the item credibility.”“Scrap glass, old wooden frames andbroken drawers take on a new meaningand life as they are used to frame, holdand present the images,” says Hope.“Things that have been forgotten will beremembered again. I hope to salvage andprotect bits of the past that has created ourpresent lives and leads to our future.

While utilitarian forms in earthenwareand stoneware continued to be made throughoutthe century, their numbers slowly decreased as agrowing urban population had less need for largestorage jars, churns, and other objects designedfor an agrarian economy. Many potters adjustedto this lower demand by creating wares thatwere more aesthetically appealing – objects thatconsumers would want to live with in their homes.Numerous factories from Vermont to Ohio toSouth Carolina produced “fancy” wares: objectsthat might still have practical functions—suchas pitchers, vases, or flasks—but were notableprimarily for their attractive shapes. Porcelainfactories also began to proliferate during this period,producing high-quality wares that catered toTable of Contentsthe tastes of more affluent consumers.

Through Sept. 1 - "Foundin Translation: The Art of Steven Naifeh". TheCMA organized the first retrospective museumexhibition of SC artist Steven Naifeh’s paintingsand sculpture. The exhibition features 26 largescaleworks of modern art, which reflect Naifeh’spersonal taste, preferences and attitudes aboutgeometric abstraction. In his art, Naifeh achievesa synthesis of West and East as well as old andnew, a blending of cultures recognized early onin the art he made here in America. His workrepresents universal harmony and attains thisgeometric symmetry beautifully with intellectualdiscipline, rigorous skill and authentic joy in theprocess of communication. Found in Translationis destined to inspire the community and opendoors to understanding cultures beyond our own.It shows visitors that what we share culturally isperhaps greater than what separates us.

Wych. Gallery15, Through Aug. 11 - "Picasso: Master Prints".This small, but luxurious exhibition is a rare opportunityfor South Carolinians to marvel at thegraphic work of one of the 20th century’s greatestartists up close. As an artist, Picasso is hardlyin need of introduction. He was arguably themost influential painter, sculptor and printmakerof the 20th century. Included in Picasso: MasterPrints is a portfolio of 10 color pochoirs made inthe early 1920s and selections from Picasso’sbest-known etchings, The Vollard Suite. “Pochoir”is French for silkscreen. This type of print, rarelymade today, was once very popular. The processis time-consuming and demanding: for eachcolor, a stencil is made and color is hand appliedwith a soft brush. This gives the effect of the printlooking more like an actual painting. The printsin the exhibition mimic a series of gouache paintingsthat Picasso made in 1919-1920 in France.This show is presented through the generosity ofMs. Ann Marie Stieritz and Mr. John B. Carran.BB&T Focus Gallery, Ongoing - "Southern Traditions,"will showcase the richness and diversityof the Museum’s collection of furniture, ceramics,silver, basketry, sculpture and paintings by artistsnative to, or active in, South Carolina and itssurrounding states.
