SUMMARY:PAT CRESSON - Taking a Leap –The Power of the Natural World - 45 Years of Creative Work
DESCRIPTION:Closing Reception and lecture/walking tour: Thursday December 7 – Tour begins at 4pm; Reception (light refreshments) from 5-6pm \nThis retrospective show\, PAT CRESSON Taking a Leap –The Power of the Natural World 45 Years of Creative Work is a combined visual statement of over 45 years of artmaking. It covers 21 different categories ranging from painting\, drawing\, collage\, printmaking\, and digital imaging to sculpture. CRESSON have always been interested in a broad range of art topics\, styles and techniques and has followed her heart and not limited herself to just one or two topics\, series or styles. \nAncient cultures and architecture\, botanicals\, maps & ephemera\, the landscape\, weather systems and climate\, insects\, birds\, Asian culture\, kimonos\, bonsai design\, endangered species\, marine life and the seashore – these are all topics that have interested her for many years and she returns again and again to them for inspiration. Using these as inspiration and metaphor her interest is also in the exploration of human interaction and the natural world – the navigation between what is hidden and what is revealed. \nRecently she has concentrated her explorations into the connection between geometry and Nature. She has explored this by juxtaposing hard edge geometric design form\, scientific illustrations\, and pattern against organic landscape shapes\, portions of sketches\, and textured paint. \nMany of the artist’s pieces combine drawing\, type\, painting\, graphic design\, digital imagery\, and original photography. A majority of her prints and images over the years have reflected interests in nature and landscape\, legend\, myth\, storytelling\, and spirituality. They complement a 35-year interest in anthropology and archaeology with particular interest in the cultures of Egypt\, Japan\, China\, South American Mayan and the Anastazi. \n\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Pat Cresson – Taj Mahal\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Pat Cresson – Vintage Fish\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Pat Cresson – Blue-Lagoon-Kimona-Series-Green-Frog\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Pat Cresson – Prevailing Winds\n				\n			\n				\n			\n				\n				Pat Cresson – Moose and Elk\n				\n		\n\n“Cresson has often taken a collage approach in her creative work and this is clear in both paintings and prints. In painting\, the artist’s use of oils\, wax\, and mixed media enhances both the collage look of her work and her atmospheric approach to color. In printmaking\, her use of chine-collé and the collograph process heightens the variety of textures and colors in her work. Whether one looks at the paintings and the prints on display here\, or the drawings and digital images available on the artist’s website\, there are opposing areas of abstract color\, a wide array of textures and transparencies\, and recognizable images (or in some cases\, the vague suggestion of images). Color is one of the artist’s strengths\, and her use of it ranges from the poetic to the dramatic. The paintings\, which tend to be more abstract than the prints\, contain some of her most ethereal color combinations. Line is another strength\, especially in the prints that utilize the inherently linear process of intaglio etching.” \nDr. Kate Ogden\, Professor of Art History\, Stockton State University\, NJ \nThis work was supported\, in part\, by several Grant-in-Aid-for-Creativity awards and the Urban Coast Institute at Monmouth University.

SUMMARY:Guajiros Retratos de Otoño\, an exhibition of work by Lázaro Niebla
DESCRIPTION:Lázaro Niebla\, a resident of Trinidad de Cuba\, documents the connection to the past through reverse woodcut portraits of those that understand it best: his elders. His process begins by collecting discarded colonial window panels that were used to protect the homes in Trinidad de Cuba during the Spanish colonization. He then photographs his subjects\, capturing them in a spontaneous moment. Working off of his photograph\, Lázaro meticulously carves layer after layer from the repurposed panel\, exposing the perfectly preserved wood under the surface. Using acrylic paint\, Lázaro adds touches of color to the piece\, choosing to leave the skin of the subject wood tone — connecting the person he has chosen to portray to the material that he has chosen to work with. The life of the tree\, the window shutter\, the home it protected\, the subject portrayed\, and the artist are all represented in each piece of art. \nArtist Demonstration: September 27 from 6pm – 8pm |Great Hall Auditorium\nLázaro Niebla\, Cuban wood sculptor\, explains his concept\, technique\, tools and cultural aspects of his work.  He’ll show an example of a work in progress and how he accomplishes the carved details of his subjects to create the multi-dimensional texture of his works.\n\nNEW!!! Opening Reception – RESCHEDULED FOR November 10 from 6pm – 8 pm | Pollak Gallery\nPlease join us for a meet and greet with the artist!

SUMMARY:Jacob Landau: The Prophetic Quest
DESCRIPTION:An art exhibition that explores a range of works over a long career\, created by the American artist\, humanist\, and teacher Jacob Landau. The exhibition features a selection of some eighteen works. All are from Monmouth University’s extensive collection of Jacob Landau’s work\, comprising over 300 prints\, drawings\, and paintings. The collection was gifted to Monmouth University in 2008 by the Jacob Landau Institute of Roosevelt\, NJ. \nReception: Thursday\, April 13\, from 4– 6 pm \nAbout Jacob Landau:\nBorn in Philadelphia in 1917\, Landau launched his career as an illustrator\, winning national prizes at age 16 and a scholarship to the Philadelphia College of Art. He went on to have over sixty one-person shows\, featuring a wide range of drawings and paintings. The recipient of numerous awards\, including Guggenheim and National Arts Council grants\, many of his works are featured in permanent collections\, such as the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. A master teacher\, he retired as professor emeritus at New York’s Pratt Institute. In 1996\, he was awarded an honorary Doctorate in Fine Arts by Monmouth University. \nFor Jacob Landau “art enables us to see the world whole and undivided.” And at its center lies the artist’s desire for justice in this world. The current exhibit reveals that his entire career was driven by such a quest from an early work with conte crayon\, “Two Women in Market” and his “Mine Strike at Auchel” through an “Einstein” portrait\, as well as watercolor pochoirs of “Malachi” and “Isaiah” who call for justice and whose bold colors and sinuous lines derive from their respective stained-glass windows that Landau created for the Keneseth Israel Synagogue in Elkins Park\, PA (just outside Philadelphia)\, two of ten windows\, each towering 5’x20’\, that flank the prayer hall. \nLandau’s Isaiah and Malachi watercolors exhilarate\, even as they confront the viewer. We realize that the prophet does not predict the future but reveals the present\, witnessing injustice\, condemning it\, and proclaiming alternatives—actions. Clearly\, Isaiah’s words pierced the artist’s heart: “Seek justice\, relieve the oppressed.” \n And we see Landau’s struggle in his quest as a citizen of our world and as an artist in a series of sketches and preparatory drawings for his portrait of Malachi as well as those of Amos\, Hosea\, and Jeremiah. We are also given an image of a world without justice\, Ezekiel’s Vison of Dry Bones\, and a glimpse of a promised new world to come\, New Jerusalem. \n  \n

SUMMARY:“Classical Realism” with master painter - Scott Nickerson
DESCRIPTION:This exhibit features work by painter Scott Nickerson and his core group of advanced students\, and is a great example of the powerful influence one master painter can have on a school of artists. \nScott Nickerson was born in Jersey City\, New Jersey in the fall of 1970. His passion for the art world evolved as he matured and he received his Bachelor of Arts degree from the School of Visual Arts\, New York City in 1996. Scott studied under many extremely talented instructors at SVA\, including renowned figure painter and draftsman\, Steven Assael. He continued his studies after graduation at the Art Students League\, New York City and Studio Incamminati\, Philadelphia with distinguished artist and teacher\, Nelson Shanks. \nIn 1997\, Scott began to share his knowledge and love of painting with his own students\, teaching classes at several locations across Monmouth and Ocean Counties. Many of his courses work directly from live models\, allowing the students an extensive study of each pose. When not teaching\, Scott can be found working at his Ocean Township Studio on commissioned portraits. His work is displayed worldwide in private and public collections\, including universities and government agencies. \nClassical Realism is an artistic movement in the late-20th and early 21st century in which drawing and painting place a high value upon skill and beauty\, combining elements of 19th-century neoclassicism and realism. \nOpening Reception: October 28 from 5 pm to 7 pm. RSVP for the reception here \n**Please note the gallery will be closed November 24-November 27 for the holiday weekend.***

SUMMARY:Jeanine Pennell: Stepping Off the Page: Stories in Clay
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition of work by artist Jeanine Pennell \nArtist Statement:\nI began this year journeying away from the studio. I left behind my bags of clay and my work tools. Bringing with me only a sketchbook and watercolors. It was the first time since the pandemic that I was away from clay. \nI was in search of a new creative process. All of my early sculptures were created in short spurts of time\, capturing the fleeting magic of a creative idea\, much like gesture drawing. But this process did not serve when I began to push the boundaries. As the sculptures grew and I was creating without a clear end in mind\, I found myself stuck. Clay figures draped in plastic shrouds collected in the corners of my studio. \nDuring this time away I turned the process around. I began drawing small intuitive drawings. The sketches were quick\, with no purpose or expectation. Capturing the essence of ideas that would float up. Later I would return to color them in and to excavate the meaning behind the art. What did the masks mean? The sharp teeth…faces and more faces? What did it all mean? \nI then developed the ideas from my sketchbook in 3-D or clay by creating small maquettes. Once the sculptures were completed early mornings found me sitting with the art to write what I saw. The stories came out. Slowly at first\, but with practice more steadily. \nThis collection is a record of that journey. In the main gallery is a collection of the largest\, finished sculptures. As you descend to the lower gallery you will encounter the beginning of the journey. On display are the original drawings\, maquettes and early sculptures as well as the stories behind the art. \nOpening Reception September 30\, 2022   7 PM – 9 PM | Ice House Gallery

SUMMARY:Miriam Beerman: 1923–2022 NOTHING HAS CHANGED
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition shines a spotlight on the late Miriam Beerman\, a New Jersey artist whose works are included in the permanent collections of over 60 museums worldwide and a female pioneer in the 20th-century art world. Beerman (1923–2022) was one of the 20th-century’s most provocative artists\, whose humanist expressionist works highlight her talent as a colorist. A pioneer as one of the first female artists to be given a solo exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum of Art\, Beerman is part of a canon of 20th-century women artists who were nearly lost to obscurity due to their gender in a male-dominated art world. Influenced by the social injustice seen around her\, Beerman shines a spotlight on the horror and pathos of man’s inhumanity to man. The themes prove to be timeless\, resonating today as much as when they were created in the 20th century. Her life and art were explored in the 2015 documentary Miriam Beerman: Expressing the Chaos. \nNearly 20 large-scale canvases by Beerman will be represented. The show is guest curated by gallerist James Yarosh and draws upon the recent exhibition Miriam Beerman – REDISCOVER\, shown at James Yarosh & Associates Gallery in Holmdel\, N.J.\, which opened in spring 2022. “Living with Miriam Beerman’s paintings at the gallery with the current exhibit REDISCOVER\, one cannot help but be both moved and stirred to be in the presence of the colossal works\, heavy with paint\, laden with subject. When you see these humanist expressionist works existing silently\, holding the weight of the world\, you begin to understand the gallery’s presentation\,” says Yarosh\, a gallerist fueled by curatorial activism in recent years. “As I described Miriam’s art with clients\, it occurred to me that those words also described the role of female artists of the 20th century whose voices were more stifled in favor of male artists—and of women’s roles in a patriarchal society. “If our art history is male-dominant\, and the artists before us our teachers\, we are only getting half the lessons to be learned\,” he continues. “We have an opportunity to do better. This presentation with Monmouth University allows the conversations to continue and include a younger generation.” \nPlease join us for a closing reception on December 11 from 1 to 4 p.m.

SUMMARY:WOMEN’S HISTORY: PASSION AND POWER - works by Julie Dzikiewicz
DESCRIPTION:Women’s History: Passion and Power features the work of Julie Dzikiewicz a Virginia-based artist. Dzikiewicz works in ancient encaustic technique using melted wax as paint. The wax is layered and re-fired to create luminous\, stained-glass effects and three-dimensional texture. She also incorporates lights and other media to develop depth and richness. Dzikiewicz’s choice of subject is unflinching\, using large powerful images to depict her subjects which include themes of violence\, racism\, and misogyny. “My studio is on the site of the Occoquan prison\, which once held and imprisoned Suffragists who picketed the White House. Inspired by this history\, this series of work tells the stories of the Suffragists and modern women who work to advance Women’s Rights.” \nJulie Dzikiewicz has been a professional artist since 2009. Her work has been shown in galleries\, museums\, and exhibitions in Virginia\, DC\, Maryland\, New York\, Canada\, and elsewhere. Her work recently won the Robert J. Alphonzo award from the 7th Annual International Fl3tch3r Exhibit: Socially and Politically Engaged Art at the Reece Museum. She currently has a studio in the Workhouse Arts Center in Lorton\, Virginia. \nArtist’s Talk/Reception: September 21 from 6-8 pm. Please register here for the artist’s talk.

SUMMARY:Front Row Center: Icons of Rock\, Blues\, and Soul
DESCRIPTION:The iconic photographs of Larry Hulst capture the freewheeling energy of live music and the enduring visual spectacle of rock’s greatest performers. From Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix to David Bowie and Lauryn Hill\, Front Row Center: Icons of Rock\, Blues and Soul brings together over 70 images of legendary musicians and singers across three genres and generations. The exhibition charts Hulst’s extraordinary path through the pulsing heart of the most exciting live music of the last century\, showcasing a unique visual anthology of rock\, blues\, and soul music from 1970–1999. These images\, which have been featured on album art and Rolling Stone spreads\, convey Hulst’s lifelong passion for the magnetism\, immediacy\, and unpredictability of live music. With photos that also document the unforgettable voices of funk\, punk\, and beyond\, Front Row Center grants viewers an all-access pass to some of the most memorable performances in popular music history. \nGALLERY TALK:\nJune 2\, 2022 at 5:30 PM| REGISTER HERE\nPlease join us for gallery talk by Dr. Ken Womack\, who will give an in depth look at the iconic photographs of Larry Hulst in the exhibition Front Row Center: Icons of Rock\, Blues\, and Soul on display in Pollak Gallery. Professor of English and Popular Music at Monmouth University Dr. Ken Womack is an American writer\, literary critic\, public speaker\, and music historian\, particularly focusing on the cultural influence of the Beatles. He is the author of the bestselling Solid State: The Story of Abbey Road and the End of the Beatles and John Lennon\, 1980: The Last Days in the Life. \nAbout Larry Hulst\nBorn in 1946 in San Diego\, Larry Hulst is a longtime participant and chronicler of the concert scene. His collection of nearly three thousand black-and-white negatives has helped immortalize the live acts of influential musicians over five momentous decades of rock history. His photography career began in 1969\, when the former Navy corpsman returned home to Sacramento after a tour of duty in Vietnam. Citing Jim Marshall\, Ansel Adams\, and Lynn Goldsmith among his influences\, \nHulst is fueled both by his respect for his musical heroes and by his dedication to perfecting his photographic eye. The hallmark of Hulst’s work is his authentic ability to evoke the raw energy and emotion of the concert experience. The only prop he has ever needed was the stage. “I never wanted to go backstage\,” Hulst states. “I want to be where the action is. After all\, the ‘show’ is projected out onto the audience. I want to be in the audience.” \nFront Row Center: Icons of Rock\, Blues\, and Soul is organized and toured by International Arts & Artists\, Washington\, DC.

SUMMARY:The Fine Art of Denim
DESCRIPTION:EXHIBITION EXTENDED UNTIL OCTOBER 14!!\nDenim\, with all its symbols and dualities\, is a common item of clothing that unites many around the globe. Dad Jeans\, skinny jeans\, low riders\, bell bottoms\, boot leg\, wide leg\, no leg\, 501s\, 504s\, button fly\, stretch jeans\, the American dress code writ large across centuries. With so many styles available and ways to accessorize/manipulate the fabric\, denim has historically allowed for a freedom of expression representing both individuality and shifts in cultural movements. Denim comes in a wide range of blues and other colors\, washes\, fades and textures making it a perfect\, but not obvious\, medium to create fine artwork. Denim that was discarded can open up a new way of looking\, a startling way of seeing past the everyday. What we have abandoned\, will be presented again\, re-purposed from the lives we lived\, to moments we experience together “forever in blue jeans.” \nMonmouth University’s Center for the Arts is pleased to present The Fine Art of Denim\, a juried exhibition of artists who use recycled denim in new and creative ways. The works featured in this exhibit come from artists all over the United States and abroad. \nPieces were selected from almost 100 entries by juror Vincent DiMattio\, an accomplished artist and Monmouth University Professor in the Department of Art and Design\, where he has taught for over 50 years and served as department chair and as gallery director for more than 20 years. \nExhibiting Artists include: Michele Fandel Bonner\, Howard Brandenburg*\, Kerstin Bruchhaeuser\, Emily Budd*\, Don Coulter\, Allison Dent\, Debra Disman\, Heidi Drahota\, Shelley Gardner\, George Gianakopoulos\, Sabine Heinlein\, Malka Kutnick\, Tanya Lucadamo\, Bob Mosier\, Johanna Norry\, Janice Patrignani\, Leah Poller\, Mary Schwarzenberger\, Ashley Thomas\, Ann Vollum\, Shirley Wagner \nVirtual Exhibit:  \n \n  \nThe Fine Art of Denim Artist Statements \n \n*artists featured in virtual exhibit only. \nVirtual Opening Reception:\nJune 24\, 2021 at 7 p.m. via ZOOM

There will be an artist talk at 6:00 followed by a Max MSP Jitter workshop at 7:30 pm. \nMike Richison is a multimedia artist and an Assistant Professor at Monmouth University in New Jersey where he teaches motion graphics. He employs a variety of approaches including sculpture\, graphic design\, and interactive video. His work utilizes found objects such as turntables\, voting booths\, and scavenged video clips as well as the Max MSP Jitter programming environment. Mike has exhibited at Autonomous Cultural Centre Medika (Zagreb\, Croatia); Figment NYC and Art in Odd Places (New York); and Peters Valley School of Craft and Morris Museum (New Jersey). His projects have received attention in outlets such as Leonardo\, Noisey (Music by VICE)\, FACT Magazine\, Hyperallergic\, WABC-TV Channel 7 News New York\, and The Washington Post.

SUMMARY:Virtual Exhibition - She Persisted: Julia Dzikiewicz
DESCRIPTION:Please join artist Julia Dzikiewicz for a virtual exhibition of her powerful and engaging artwork. Each week Julia will release a new video of a featured piece in the exhibit. Check back each week for a new piece! \nSuffrage Cat\, encaustic mixed media\, 60”x 60”\, 2020 \n \nBorder Crisis\, encaustic mixed media with lights\, 60”x 60” \n \nSandy Hook\,” 60″x60″ \,encaustic mixed media with lights\, 2019 \n \nIda B. Wells\, 60”x60”\, encaustic mixed media\, 2016 \n \nThe Story of the Ham\, 60”x60”\, encaustic mixed media\, 2012 \n \n“Old Film\, New Film\,” 60″x60″\, encaustic mixed media\, 2016 \n \n“Suffragist and Zombies\,” encaustic mixed media\, 60″ x 60″ \n \n“Charlottesville\,” encaustic mixed media\, 60″x90\,” 2019 \n \n“Women’s March 2017″\, 60″x96\,”  encaustic with crystals and lights\, 2017 \n \n“Wendy and Hillary”\, 60”x60”\, encaustic with crystals  \n \nMalala and Maria”\, 60″ x 60″ encaustic (with crystals and vintage glass beads) \n \nElection 2016\, 60”x60”\,Encaustic with Swarovski crystals\, encaustic printed paper\, and electric lights\, 2017 \n \nMe Too\, 60”x60”\, Mixed media encaustic with lights\, 2018 \n \nOvertly political\, deeply emotional\, and subtly humorous\, Julia Dzikiewicz weaves feminist parables into immense encaustic wax paintings. Monumental like an altarpiece\, they inflame the spirit; illuminated like a tapestry\, they give shape to immortal stories. Yet\, Dzikiewicz’s work refuses a singular order. Using ancient wax techniques to explore present-day topics\, Dzikiewicz is unflinching. She strikes hot\, skewering the heart of the difficult issues she addresses\, including themes of violence\, racism\, and misogyny. As a resident of the Workhouse Arts Center\, the grief and triumph of the once imprisoned Suffragists serve as the inspiration for her contemporary tales of women who fight for change or the issues that inspire modern activists.

SUMMARY:Closed: Gina Torello: LightScapes
DESCRIPTION:Light is a living element\, fixed in a moment of time\, captured by the lens of a machine or by the hand of man. This light shifts\, changes and instantaneously alters landscapes. It illuminates color and contrast\, in the key absence of artificial light. Lightscapes is the light in all our scapes\, originating from the sun or moon\, our natural resource. Lightscapes is the wonder of how light wraps itself around nature in a moment of stillness. \nAs you explore Lightscapes\, you will be surrounded by examples of how this light pulls you to various environments – evoking emotions\, some subtle and some turbulent. The exhibition does not seek to duplicate nature\, but instead allows the expressive and intimate use of color and light to dance within the work. \nLeveraging her strong classical European education\, Gina Torello’s work is diverse in both media and style. Her sense of expression demonstrates a mastery of color and is captured in her freedom to recreate Lightscapes that speak to the viewer from her soul. \nCome explore Lightscapes for yourself. In her retrospective exhibit\, Gina Torello demonstrates how light intertwines the subject matter of her oils\, pastels\, printmaking\, photography and sculpture in the Ice House Gallery. Gina Torello is a Professor in Monmouth University’s Department of Art and Design. \nArtist’s website:  www.ginatorello.studio
