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: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:“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:The Clay Bird
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a World Cinema Series film screening/discussion illuminating the theme “Wartime Lives: Enduring and Transcending Violence and Occupation” by analyzing the message and impact of the film The Clay Bird (Bengali\, 2002). \nThe Clay Bird is a 2002 Bengali War-drama film was written and directed by Tareque Masud. It was his debut feature film. Based on Tareque’s story the screenplay was co-written by Tareque and Catherine Masud. \nSet against a 1960’s backdrop leading up to Bangladesh’s independence from Pakistan\, THE CLAY BIRD tells the story of Anu\, a boy sent away by his father to an Islamic school. Far from his family and the warmth of his region’s Hindu festivities\, Anu struggles to break out of his shell and adapt to the school’s harsh monastic life. As the political divisions in the country intensify\, an increasing split develops between the school’s students\, just as Anu’s parents find themselves growing apart. Rather than be torn in half\, Anu must decide which side he falls upon in this complex tale of tolerance\, diversity\, and the practice of Islam in a crises-ridden world. \nThe discussion of the film will be led by Dr. Rekha Datta\, Professor in the department of Political Science and Sociology and Dr. Golam M. Mathbor\, Professor in the School of Social Work
