SUMMARY:Maunderings by Tonya D. Lee
DESCRIPTION:In this exhibition\, artist and Monmouth University Art and Design faculty member\, Tonya D. Lee presents a collection of multi-discipline work that explores the abstraction of nature and environment through the combination shapes\, patterns\, moments and pauses that are derived from passive spaces\, fleeting thoughts and changing winds. Location and process are in a conversation about ephemeral moments of beauty. Using a multi-disciplinary process of combining painting\, drawing\, collage\, construction\, and digital media\, the obsessions with materiality explore form and color as an echo of the present overlapping past presents — form and color negotiating to exist as object and subject.

SUMMARY:Oceanids by Joseph Coscia Jr.
DESCRIPTION:Oceanids are some 3000 nymphs in Greek mythology who watch over fresh water: rain\, clouds\, lakes\, springs and rivers\, as well as pastures\, breezes and flowers. They are the daughters of Oceanus and Tethys. Coscia\, the Chief Photographer at the Metropolitan Museum of Art has spent countless hours with classical sculptures\, photographing them in various settings and seasons. He focuses on the qualities of light on sculpture in changing conditions\, and the shifting effects of natural light on stone surfaces. His photographs of museum pieces explore elements of the art outside the context of the museum setting. \nHis recent work draws on Man Ray’s solarization techniques. This effect reverses the shadow areas and transforms the sense of weight and volume of the objects\, so that they appear suspended in air or water. The forms are evocative of earthly creatures or fossils; photographing and printing them using recreated old photographic techniques removes time specificity\, so that they also are suspended in time. \nCoscia\, Jr. received his MFA from Hunter College in 1989 and his BFA from Kutztown University of Pennsylvania in 1982. His photographs have appeared in numerous publications and museum books\, most notably Light on Stone\, a photographic essay published by Yale Press in 2004.

SUMMARY:Sheba Sharrow
DESCRIPTION:Through a vigorous and poetic hand\, her work reflects on brutality and simultaneously pays homage to the animating power of solidarity\, warning us: Remember\, history’s tragedies repeat. \nBorn in Brooklyn in 1926 to Russian-Jewish immigrant parents\, Sheba Sharrow grew up in Chicago and earned her BFA at the Art Institute of Chicago\, studying with Boris Anisfeld and Joseph Hirsch. She continued her studies at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and earned an MFA at the Tyler School of the Arts at Temple University. She has been considered part of the “Chicago School” of imagist painters\, fitting generationally into the “Monster Roster” group of artists from that city\, including the most well-known of her classmates to lead the charge of image and ideas over pure abstraction\, Leon Golub and Nancy Spero. A resident of Cherry Hill\, New Jersey\, Sharrow died in 2006. \nIn the dominant milieu of Abstract Expressionism beginning in the 1950s\, which actively rebelled against identifiable “meaning\,” Sharrow remained grounded in a humanist tradition and a social context. Curator and writer Alejandro Anreus placed her “in the company of Kollwitz\, Beckman and Orozco\,” and writer Amy Fine Collins linked “her sensibility to German Expressionism.” \nSharrow’s unique style of storytelling and her occasional use of poetic text stand her apart. Her artistic intentions were deeply intellectual. “As long as the world is going the way it is going\, I cannot stop doing what I have been doing\,” Sharrow told The New York Times in 2002. She lamented\, “We cannot seem to get it right.” \nThe works will be on loan from both James Yarosh Associates Fine Art Gallery and the Estate of Sheba Sharrow as well as from institutions such as the Jersey City Museum of Art and private collections.

SUMMARY:NATURE AND NURTURE - Mother/Daughter Artists: The Paintings of Cheryl Griesbach and Claudia Griesbach-Martucci
DESCRIPTION:After working almost 20 years as an illustrator with her husband Stanley Martucci\, in 2000 Cheryl Griesbach began creating a body of paintings based on her interests in European 18th and 19th century still-life\, botanical\, and landscape art. Cheryl’s painting technique was derived from Flemish painting that she had explored as a student at The School of Visual Arts where she is now on the faculty since 1985. Her method includes the manipulation of segments of Northern European paintings and incorporating that imagery in building a new landscape\, like a stage. Cheryl has received many awards\, including last year’s best in show at the Monmouth Museum’s 38th international juried awards show. \nCheryl’s daughter Claudia\, having grown up with both parents as artists\, gave her an innate inclination to explore her imagination and develop knowledge of oil painting.  Admitted into The School of Visual Arts\, her parents alumni\, Claudia in her third year first began to primarily use oil paint as her medium to illustrate the 18th century fairy tale Donkey Skin by Charles Perrault.  Claudia graduated with honors and was then accepted into the Masters Program\, Illustration as Visual Essay\, with a limited class of 20 students. With her background in Illustration and skills in using oils learned from he mother\, all of Claudia’s paintings tell a story. Her end of the year show paintings began to carve out some of the subject matter she wanted to explore\, “that behind every exquisite thing that exists there is something tragic” a quote from Oscar Wilde’s Portrait of Dorian Gray. Claudia is currently working as a painting assistant to the artist Jeff Koons\, while pursuing her own personal work.

SUMMARY:Women’s Rights Are Human Rights: An Exhibit of Selected Works by Jacob Landau
DESCRIPTION:Monmouth University Galleries opens an exhibition of works exploring the theme of justice for women by American artist\, humanist\, and teacher Jacob Landau.\n \nBorn in Philadelphia in 1917\, Jacob Landau launched his career as an illustrator\, winning national prizes at age 16 and a scholarship to the Philadelphia College of Art. He had over sixty one-person shows and was the recipient of many awards\, including Tiffany\, Guggenheim and National Arts Council grants. \n \nLandau’s art\, devoted to the “advocacy of the human\,” which entails “revelation of the tragic” and “hope of transcendence\,” embodies a vision of justice for women. Powerfully and subtly erasing inherited gender boundaries\, it triumphs. In his watercolor AS ABOVE  SO BELOW he gives us an unforgettable vision of the “patterned energy” that is the just relation between sexes. We see masculine “incompleteness” and feminine “imperfection” in balanced unity. The man below and the woman above\, declaring together: “I and thou we create each other.” And by this creation of the human imagination we are convinced of its truth. \n \nThe exhibition features a selection of twelve pieces. All works 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. This exhibit is co-sponsored by the Jewish Culture Studies Program and the Honors School of Monmouth University. \nOpening Reception: Monday\, April 10\, 2017 from 4:30 – 6:00 p.m. \n  \nDocent tours are available (for times\, contact Professor Noel Belinski 732-263-5425; email: nbelinsk@monmouth.edu).\n

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: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

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 - Evelyn Leavens Retrospective 1924 - 2013
DESCRIPTION:November 7 – December 19\nRechnitz Hall’s DiMattio Gallery\nOpening Reception: Friday\, November 14\, 2014 from 7 – 9 pm \nBorn in 1924\, Evelyn Leavens is a life long resident of Red Bank. Her first solo show was in 1952 at the Old Mill Gallery\, Tinton Falls\, known then for the introduction of Alice Neel and Martha Graham.\nIn 1958 a book of drawings “Boswells’ Life of Boswell” by Leavens was published by Simon and Schuster which became #2 on the New York Times children’s best seller that year. \nShe has received two fellowships from N.J. State Council of the Arts and was included in the 1977 N.J. Arts Council biennial at the Trenton State Museum. Her work has shown\, notably\, at City Without Walls\, Aljira\, Tweeds\, Summit Art Center and the Morris State Museum. \nPrimarily self taught\, she attended the Vermont Studio Center in 1987 where she studied with Malcolm Morley\, Archie Rand and Niel Welliver. \n“Black Convergence is a bit hard to describe. First\, it is not an abstract. It takes nothing from nothing. This painting is non-objective because it has nothing in its mind to start with. The first mark on the paper is the way to the second mark.  This progresses\, through many marks and changes to become a true non-objective. It makes many changes until\, through love and hate\, eventually becomes acceptable. I never give up”.\n– Evelyn Leavens \nThis exhibition will include works from throughout the artist’s life. \nImage Caption: Black Convergence\, 2012\, Watercolor on paper\, 16″ x 20”

SUMMARY:Gallery Exhibition: David H. Wells
DESCRIPTION:September 2 – November 14\, 2014\nIce House Gallery\nOpening Reception:  Thursday\, September 25\, from 4:30 – 7:00 p.m. \nAn exhibit about the empty homes and foreclosed dreams littering the American landscape in the wake of the foreclosure crisis. \nOwning a home was once the American dream. At the peak of the foreclosure crisis\, one in five American homeowners was either behind on their mortgage payments or in the process of foreclosure. Their empty homes and foreclosed dreams are powerful symbols of lives shattered and families devastated. \nAfter a house is foreclosed upon there is a fleeting moment when the ghosts of the one-time owners are all that is left – before the houses are cleaned and returned to the real estate market.  The remaining signs of life photographed during this period of time echo the voices and footsteps that once filled these emptied houses. \nI focused on empty homes\, as they are immovable objects and stand in stark contrast to the highly mobile American dream. I chose not to focus on individual families in foreclosure because I wanted to explore the issue from a broader perspective. The final work is made more powerful by its lack of literalism and its attention to chillingly mundane objects.  An open-ended canvas\, viewers can project their own ideas into the photographs – about home\, America and family\, into the empty spaces of the houses. \nI started the project in April of 2009\, with the goal of understanding the upheaval we are living through. I initially photographed in the Central Valley of California\, an epicenter of the foreclosure crisis. Then\, I worked in Rhode Island\, which has a foreclosure rate very similar to California’s. To date\, I have photographed in eighteen states. \nMy audience is America itself\, including those who worry about the possible foreclosure of their own dreams\, those who have already experienced that trauma and anyone concerned or interested in what’s happening to the American dream.

SUMMARY:Gallery Exhibition: MAVIS SMITH / THINK AGAIN
DESCRIPTION:September 2 – October 17\, 2014\nRechnitz Hall\nDiMattio Gallery – First Floor\nOpening Reception: Friday\, September 19\, from 7:00 – 9:00 p.m. \nWe interact with hundreds of people throughout our lifetimes\, yet can we ever hope to grasp the intricate web of experience that makes them tick? Imagining the hidden realities of other people’s existences is a continuing theme in the work of artist Mavis Smith. “It’s not so much specific people or events\, but the general sense of unknown depths that intrigues me”\, says Smith. “It does not have to be dark; heroic acts toward total strangers or simple people rising to extraordinary occasions are equally in the mix.” Smith\, who’s works are often done in egg tempera\, brings an almost surreal aesthetic to her paintings that further suggests the dislocation of appearances and realities. \n“I have a love/hate relationship with egg tempera. It’s a labor intensive medium\, but the luminous effects you can achieve makes it seem worth it to me. I build up layer upon layer of thicker paint\, alternating with sheer washes of pigment – back and forth\, back and forth. The actual process is very meditative\, and I believe it contributes to my subconscious imagination coming into play.” \nBucks County\, PA resident Mavis Smith studied at the Pratt Institute in the 1970’s\, and has exhibited her work in Holland and Switzerland as well as Santa Fe\, New York City\, and several venues in NJ and PA including a solo show in 2012 at the Michener Art Museum in Doylestown\, PA. She is also a prolific illustrator and author of children’s books\, having authored 10 and illustrated at least 75. This exhibition samples a range of Smith’s work from years past\, as well as several new pieces\, including both paintings and works on paper as well as some recent sculptural works incorporating egg shells.

SUMMARY:Gallery Exhibition: Robert Mueller - Selected Works From the Monmouth University Permanent Collection
DESCRIPTION:September 2 – October 17\, 2014\nRechnitz Hall\nDiMattio Gallery – Second Floor \nInspired by mathematical models\, literary sources\, and his own social consciousness\, Robert Emmett Mueller\, artist\, engineer\, inventor\, author\, musician\, puppet maker\, and general wizard\, is on a never-ending search for visual equivalents to his ideas. \n“Such is his mind\, and such is his personality that I know whatever he is doing artistically is a search for form\, a search for beauty\, and a search for the meaning of things”\, said Bernarda Bryson Shahn\, and artist and Mueller’s longtime neighbor in Roosevelt\, New Jersey. \nMueller’s creations are largely varied.  They include woodcuts\, like a recent triptych entitled: Ravages of Pre-emptive War; The Devil Stalks Baghdad; America’s Bitter Presence\, whose theme is the U.S. invasion of Iraq.  Many of Mueller’s pieces can be found worldwide and are in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, the Museum of Modern Art\, and The Pushkin Museum in Moscow\, the New Jersey State Museum\, the Rutgers University Museum\, the Victoria and Albert Museum of London\, and other museums worldwide.  He is also a painter who describes his personal style as “Mathematico-abstract.”  Mueller has written two books\, The Science of Art\, published in 1967\, and Inventivity\, published in 1963. \nMueller’s own “inventivity” took a circuitous route to art.  He grew up in St. Louis\, where his father was a baker and his mother was a seamstress and milliner.  After serving in the Navy\, he was sent to a college preparation program in Asbury Park and later graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. \nAfter moving to New York City to study philosophy at New York University\, Mueller began to meet artists from Roosevelt\, which was begun as a planned workers’ community but had evolved into an artists’ colony that included\, among others\, Ben Shahn\, and Gregorio Prestopino\, both who influenced Mueller’s work.  Mueller moved to Roosevelt with his wife Diana Lobl\, an attorney\, in the 1950’s.  They now have two grown children\, Rachel and Erik. \nMueller said that through Roosevelt he became “conscious of human inhumanity\, moral and social problems\, the depths of degradation\, and the heights of elegance over which human nature ranges”\, and he believes that artists should use their work to react to crises in society\, to encourage protest\, and to fight for economic\, political\, and human well-being. \nIn this exhibition\, all of the above are skillfully communicated. \nImage Caption: Classic Figure\, 1996\, Woodcut\, 23 1/2″ x 17 1/2″
