In my view, non-objective and abstract art have a special role in describing non-Newtonian reality—a reality in which our five senses are of little use.
Join us on Monday, August 3 at 11am for a performance by Julianne Swartz and Koyoltzintli. Collaborating for the first time, the artists bring a shared reverence for sound and objects that produce sound. Those joining for the performance will also have the opportunity to view Julianne Swartz's current exhibition Attunements in the Drawing Studio.
We are pleased to join River Valley Arts Collective in presenting Attunements, a solo exhibition by Julianne Swartz, curated by Liz Munsell. The presentation includes a series of corpulent ceramic and copper vessels alongside works made with fine metal filaments, some that are nearly imperceptible. Meanwhile, orb-like and linear wire constructions and weavings silently adhere to the architecture of the space, playing with light and gravity as a material. See link below to schedule your visit.
The Al Held Foundation is thrilled to announce the donation of Noah’s Focus II (1970) to the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao just . Measuring 25 feet wide, this impressive large-scale work from Held's black and white period has taken up residence on the museum’s third floor, within a permanent collection presentation titled "Abstraction and Space," curated by Marta Blàvia.
