SUMMARY:Gallery Exhibition: Jacob Landau - Selected Paintings from the Monmouth University Permanent Art Collection
DESCRIPTION:January 20 – March 7\, 2014\nRechnitz Hall\nDiMattio Gallery – Second Floor \nJacob Landau (1917-2001)\, printmaker\, painter\, humanist\, and teacher was an artist whose works explored the basic themes of human existence and morality with an insight that was both passionate and indignant. He was born in Philadelphia\, PA\, where he began as an illustrator\, but he lived most of his adult life in Roosevelt\, NJ. Here he immersed himself in the town’s thriving artistic community\, along with such noted artists as Ben Shahn\, and began a distinguished career as professor at Pratt Institute\, Brooklyn\, NY. The art he created gained him an impressive reputation\, with many of his works included in the permanent collections of the world’s finest museums\, such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, the Philadelphia Museum of Art\, the Museum of Modern Art (New York\, NY)\, the Hirshhorn Museum (Washington\, DC)\, as well as the National Gallery of Art in Washington\, DC. He also received numerous honors\, including fellowships from the Guggenheim and Ford Foundations.\nIn retirement he became Professor Emeritus at Pratt and received an honorary Doctorate in Fine Arts from Monmouth University in 1996. \nIn 2008 the Jacob Landau Institute donated more than 300 of the artist’s prints\, drawings and paintings to Monmouth University.  Jacob Landau: Selected Paintings from the Monmouth University Permanent Art Collection will feature approximately twenty original paintings. \nImage Caption: Satanic Wheels\, Watercolor\, 36 1/4″ x 50 3/4″

SUMMARY:Gallery Exhibition: Hon Eui Chen - After the Sun
DESCRIPTION:January 20 – March 7\nRechnitz Hall\nDiMattio Gallery – First Floor\nLecture: Thursday\, January 29\, 4:30 – 5:30 p.m.  Wilson Hall Auditorium\,\nOpening Reception: Thursday\, January 29 5:30 – 7:00 p.m. \nThe poetics of intimate spaces and the exploration of the idea of home are what interest me in paintings and installation.  The subject of home remains an abstract concept and is the motivational force for my studio pursuits.  Born in a refugee camp that lies between Cambodia and Thailand\, I moved with my family to Mississippi at the age of six.  Growing up\, the sense of belonging and not belonging to the Southern culture of Mississippi affected my sense of identity.  The memories of my childhood on the Thai-Cambodia border became just a faint beacon of light as the years go by; the need to remember\, to retrieve those childhood memories of a past life remains a constant act in my work. \nIn my installations\, I make objects that convey themes of identity\, memory and longing to transform and activate a room.  I use acrylic paint\, varnishes\, resin\, plaster and photographs as the structural realization for a subject as formless and transitory as memory.  The concept of travel and memory are embedded in the current series of mixed media paintings – layered earthy\, dark colored background with graphite drawn trees and foliage and an overlay of concrete.  My work seeks to simulate the impermanence of memory\, the fleetingness of its existence in mixed media installations\, creating structures that translate the mind’s formless but living past into physical material and sensation and transforming space that poetically simulates a timeless place for recollection and dreams. \nArtist website: www.honeuichen.com \nImage Caption: Untitled\, 8” x 8”\, acrylic\, image transfer and concrete on panel\, 2014

SUMMARY:Gallery Exhibition: Heeseop Yoon
DESCRIPTION:January 21 – April 10\nIce House Gallery\nOpening Reception: Thurs. February 5\, from 5:30 – 7:00 p.m.\nIllustrated Lecture: Wilson Hall Auditorium\, 4:30 – 5:30 p.m. \nI begin by taking photographs of interiors such as warehouses\, storage spaces\, junkshops and basements; places where everything is jumbled\, disorganized and filled with piles of random stuff.  From these photographs I construct a view and then start to draw freehand.  I don’t make sketches or project images to make the drawings.  Once I put lines on the surface I don’t erase or remove them.  If I want to change the drawing I just add more lines on top of the existing ones. These ‘mistakes’ that I make in the process of my drawing appear as double or multiples lines as I apply ‘corrections’. They reflect the accumulation of time\, and how my perception has changed and become less clear over time.\nMost of the drawing installations are site-specific.  I usually visit the site before I start the piece and take measurements of the space where I will install the work.  Usually I have vague ideas about how the whole installation will sit in the space\, but most of the decisions I make happen during the process of making the piece in the studio. \nMost of my drawing installations are also room scale\, so I work section by section in my studio and don’t usually get to see the entire drawing until I have finish installing it. The whole piece is attached to the wall with the same black masking tape that I use for the drawing. I give each Mylar sheet a number and make a map of the drawing that shows which number goes where\, so installing the whole piece is just like a putting together a really big puzzle. \nI am mostly attracted to representing claustrophobic environments and defunct objects. At the beginning\, it started as more of a formal interest – I was attracted to these massive piles of things\, and the anonymous\, decontextualized quality they had.  I wanted to make still life drawings that were about perception and mark-making rather than the narrative of the objects themselves.  But the more I worked with claustrophobic spaces\, I stared to realize that these are the spaces hidden within our lives.  We have so many things that we forget about. We struggle for space for ourselves and for the things we own.  Now I am interested in these as lost spaces. \nMy work deals with memory and perception within cluttered spaces. I begin by photographing interiors such as basements\, workshops\, and storage spaces\, places where everything is jumbled and time becomes ambiguous without the presence of people. From these photographs I construct a view and then I draw freehand without erasing. As I correct “mistakes” the work results in double or multiple lines\, which reflect how my perception has changed over time and makes me question my initial perception. Paradoxically\, greater concentration and more lines make the drawn objects less clear. The more I see\, the less I believe in the accuracy or reality of the images I draw. \nArtist Website: heeseopyoon.com/

SUMMARY:Jason Isbell
DESCRIPTION:A former member of the\nSouthern rock outfit Drive by Truckers\, Jason Isbell’s solo career has seemed\neffortless\, from Sirens of the Ditch (2007) to Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit\n(2009)\, through Here We Rest (2011) and last year’s Live From Alabama. He writes\nopen -hearted songs full of storm and drama\, bursting with personal truths\, and\nechoing with the southern sound of his Alabama upbringing. Embracing his\nnewfound sobriety\, Isbell next produced an album of haunting atonement and\nredemption\, the sparse and impressive Southeastern\, which was a critical\nsuccess and commercial breakthrough.

SUMMARY:Mavis Staples with Nicole Atkins
DESCRIPTION:There are few living musicians who can lay claim to being the voice of America’s conscience\, and even fewer who continue to make vital music. For six decades Mavis Staples has been the solid rock of American music. Alongside the family group she is so identified with\, the Staple Singers\, Mavis has managed to transform herself as she goes\, yet never alter.  \nFrom the delta-inflected gospel sound she helped create in the 1950s (“Uncloudy Day”)\, to the engaged protest of the civil rights era (“Freedom Highway”)\, and then\, amazingly\, on pop radio in the 1970s with a series of chart hits (“I’ll Take You There\,” “Respect Yourself\,” “Lets Do It Again”)–through all these\, Mavis carried on\, her warm embrace of a voice the only constant. On their second collaboration\, the Grammy-nominated 2013 album “One True Vine\,” the legendary singer and her producer\, Wilco leader Jeff Tweedy\, have crafted a gospel album for the 21st century. On the record\, Mavis gives voice to something new in her repertoire\, something deeper and more resonant with our times.  Where her Stax-era hits spoke for a growing black social consciousness\, and her seventies collaborations with The Band gave spiritual weight to the rediscovery of traditional American music\, Jeff Tweedy has crafted a pulpit from which Mavis lends her voice to a search for grace. Staples is a Rock and Roll Hall of Famer\, a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award winner\, and a National Heritage Fellowship Award recipient.  VH1 named her one of the 100 Greatest Women of Rock and Roll\, and Rolling Stone listed her as one of the 100 Greatest Singers of All Time.  Her previous album\, the Tweedy-produced “You Are Not Alone\,” won the Grammy Award for Best Americana Album in 2011\, adding a remarkable new chapter to an already historic career. \nOpening for Staples is a songwriter and performer who represents an exciting new voice in millennial music — in addition to being the Jersey Shore music scene’s most acclaimed breakout artist in a generation. Nicole Atkins grabbed the industry’s attention several seasons back with her major-label debut album Neptune City\, a nationwide TV commercial for American Express\, and a musicologist’s dexterity that found her sharing stages comfortably and confidently with everyone from Nick Cave’s Bad Seeds to Monmouth professor Marc Muller’s Dead On Live project. Having reaffirmed her indie roots with her latest release Slow Phaser\, Atkins is creating some strong and innovative new music — and she’ll be sharing it\, along with the expected surprise interpretations of her many and varied influences\, in a solo acoustic setting on the Pollak stage.
