Not just a place to see famous Americans\, the museum explores identity as a social construct that has been shaped in equal measure by opportunity and ability\, prejudice and fear. By taking a cross-disciplinary approach that merges the traditional forms of painting\, sculpture\, drawing and printmaking with poetry\, installation art\, video and performance\, Sajet aims to bring history alive. \nBefore her current appointment\, Sajet was the president and CEO of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania\, the vice president and deputy director of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts\, and the director of corporate relations at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Before arriving in the United States with her family in 1997\, she served first as curator and then director of two Australian art museums from 1989 – 1995. \nBorn in Nigeria\, raised in Australia\, and a citizen of the Netherlands\, Sajet brings a global perspective to the position. She earned a master’s degree in art history from Bryn Mawr College\, a master’s degree in business administration from Melbourne University Business School in Australia\, a bachelor’s degree in art history from Melbourne University\, and a graduate diploma in Museum studies from Deakin University in Australia. She has completed arts leadership training at the Harvard Business School\, the Getty Institute and National Arts Strategies. \nIn addition to 20 years of arts management experience\, Sajet has written a number of scholarly publications\, curated exhibitions and spoken at academic symposia around the world. Her current interests include the June 2019 study of identity politics\, role-playing in online virtual worlds and the significance of celebrity in American history. She is also the host of the Portrait Gallery’s new podcast series\, “Portraits\,” exploring themes of art\, history and biography. \nThank you to Ruth Abrahams\, Caitlin Berry\, Alexa Kaye and Maria Sancho-Arroyo for organizing this program. \nHosted By: \n\nAlexa Kaye\nAlice Dow Walker\nAnne M.

Join today! \nCan’t make the program at this time? Register anyway to receive a recording after! \nHow to take part: \n\nClick here to Register for this program.\nFollowing registration you will receive call-in information in the form of a ZOOM link.\nBefore joining a Zoom meeting on a computer or mobile device\, you can download the Zoom app from the Download Center and select the “Zoom Client for Meetings” option. Alternatively\, you will be prompted to download and install Zoom when you click a join link.\nFor further instruction on how to use Zoom\, see here.\n\n\nAbout the Speakers \nBorn in Philadelphia in 1943\, Howardena Pindell studied painting at Boston University and Yale University. After graduating\, she accepted a job at the Museum of Modern Art\, where she worked for 12 years (1967–1979). Her first role was an Exhibition Assistant\, then Assistant Curator in the Department of National and International Traveling Exhibitions\, and finally Associate Curator and Acting Director in the Department of Prints and Illustrated Books. In 1979\, she began teaching at the State University of New York\, Stony Brook where she is now a full-time professor. Throughout her career\, Pindell has exhibited extensively. Notable solo-exhibitions include: Spelman College (1971\, Atlanta)\, Just Above Midtown (1977\, New York)\, Lerner-Heller Gallery (1980\, 1981\, New York)\, The Studio Museum in Harlem (1986\, New York)\, the Wadsworth Atheneum (1989\, Hartford)\, G.R. N’Namdi Gallery (1992\, 1995\, 1996\, 2000\, 2002\, 2006\, Chicago\, Detroit\, and New York)\, Garth Greenan Gallery\, New York (2014\, 2017)\, Spelman College Museum of Fine Art\, Atlanta (2015) and the Museum of Contemporary Art\, Chicago (2018). \nPindell often employs lengthy\, metaphorical processes of destruction/reconstruction. She cuts canvases in strips and sews them back together\, building up surfaces in elaborate stages. She paints or draws on sheets of paper\, punches out dots from the paper using a hole punch\, drops the dots onto her canvas\, and squeegees paint through the “stencil” left in the paper from which she had punched the dots. Almost invariably\, her paintings are installed unstretched\, held to the wall merely by the strength of a few finishing nails. The artist’s fascination with gridded\, serialized imagery\, along with surface texture appears throughout her oeuvre. Even in her later\, more politically charged work\, Pindell reverts to these thematic focuses in order to address social issues of homelessness\, AIDs\, war\, genocide\, sexism\, xenophobia\, and apartheid. \nMost recently\, Pindell’s work appeared in: Black in the Abstract: Part I\, Epistrophy (2013\, Contemporary Arts Museum\, Houston)\, and Painting 2.0: Expression in the Information Age\, (2015–2016\, Museum Brandhorst; 2016\, Museum Moderner Kunst) and We Wanted a Revolution: Black Radical Women\, 1965–1985 (2017\, the Brooklyn Museum\, New York). Howardena Pindell was the subject of the 2018 retrospective at the Museum of Contemporary Art\, Chicago titled ‘Howardena Pindell: What Remains to Be Seen.’ The exhibition later traveled to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts (2018) and the Rose Art Museum (2019). \nView the artist’s full biography here. \n \nAdeze Wilford is an Assistant Curator at The Shed. She was an inaugural joint curatorial fellow at The Studio Museum in Harlem and the Museum of Modern Art. She organized Vernacular Interior at Hales Gallery in 2019\, as well as Excerpt (2017) at the Studio Museum and Black Intimacy (2017)\, a film series at MoMA. Other curatorial projects include Harlem Postcards F/W 2016/2017 and Color in Shadows the 2016 Expanding The Walls exhibition at Studio Museum. Prior to this Adeze was the Public Programs and Community Engagement assistant at the Studio Museum. She has contributed scholarship to various catalogues and magazines including Young\,Gifted and Black and Black Refractions. She graduated from Northwestern University with a BA in Art History and African-American Studies.\n \nThis program is generously supported by the Pollock-Krasner Foundation. The Pollock-Krasner Foundation has been a leader in providing grants enabling emerging and established artists to focus on their work. Funding helps artists to create new work\, acquire art supplies\, rent studio space\, and prepare exhibitions. The Foundation also provides grants to organizations that directly engage with artists\, such as artist residency programs.

SUMMARY:Virtual | AT Local: NoCal Film Night -  Art21's Art in the Twenty-First Century: Borderlands
DESCRIPTION:8:30pm ET | 7:30pm CT | 5:30pm PT\nJoin ArtTable’s Northern California Chapter for a virtual film night to watch and discuss Art21’s Borderlands\, an episode in the 10th season of their Art in the Twenty-First Century series. Following the film\, we’ll be joined by Lolita Fierro\, Associate Director\, Major Gifts & Special Events at Art21 to discuss the episode. \nThe film screening will take place from 5:30 – 6:30 PT (7:30-8:30pm CT\, 8:30-9:30pm ET)\, and the discussion from 6:30 – 7:15 PT (8:30-9:15 CT\, 9:30-10:15pm ET). Members are welcome to join for just the discussion if they would prefer to view the film on their own time. \nThis program is free for ArtTable Members only. Not a member? Join today! \nHow to take part: \n\nClick here to Register for this event.\nFollowing registration you will receive call-in information in the form of a ZOOM link.\nBefore joining a Zoom meeting on a computer or mobile device\, you can download the Zoom app from the Download Center and select the “Zoom Client for Meetings” option. Alternatively\, you will be prompted to download and install Zoom when you click a join link.\nFor further instruction on how to use Zoom\, see here.\n\nClick here to see who’s already registered! \n\nAbout the Episode\nA vast geography encompassing open deserts and densely populated metropolises\, the borderland between the United States and Mexico has long been a site of political conflict\, social struggle\, and intense creative ferment. Taking a new curatorial and filmmaking approach\, Art21 connects and juxtaposes a group of acclaimed artists as they work along the U.S.-Mexico border\, interweaving their stories to chronicle the creative responses to one of the most divisive moments in the history of this area. From an epic interactive searchlight installation along the El Paso–Juárez divide to a deeply personal performance at the Tijuana border wall\, these artists consider the border as an open wound\, a theatrical stage\, a political podium\, a studio\, and a contradictory landscape that features both ugliness and beauty. \nThis episode explores how contemporary art can reveal the new and unexpected. It asks viewers to question their preconceived notions of a place seemingly made familiar by mass media.

Carr will be joining us to present her book and take part in engaging conversation. \nSara Tyson Hallowell: Pioneer Curator and Art Agent in the Gilded Age\n\nThis biography tells the story of Philadelphia-born Sara Tyson Hallowell (1846-1924). Hallowell made her reputation in Chicago in the 1880’s organizing exhibitions for that city’s Inter-state Industrial Expositions. Impressed with her knowledge of art and the art market\, Bertha and Potter Palmer sought her advice. Hallowell’s enthusiasm for the work of Monet\, Renoir\, Sisley\, and Pissarro led them to form one of the earliest collections of French Impressionism in America\, notable examples of which are today at the Art Institute of Chicago. \nDisappointed that her gender prevented her from becoming director of art at the 1893 World’s Columbian Exhibition\, Hallowell nevertheless created a critically successful exhibition for this mammoth fair. Following its close\, Hallowell went to live in France. From 1894 to 1914\, she selected paintings of American artists living abroad for annual exhibitions at the Art Institute of Chicago. Mary Cassatt and Auguste Rodin were among her many Parisian friends. \nHallowell’s pioneering work as a curator and art advisor provided a model for women seeking to enter these professions previously the prerogative of men.\n\nCarolyn Kinder Carr is the Deputy Director of the National Portrait Gallery and the author of “Gaston Lachaise: Portrait Sculpture” (Smithsonian Institution Press\, 1985). \nThank you to Ruth Abrahams\, ArtTable DC Committee Member at Large for organizing this program. \n\nImage: “Sara Tyson Hallowell: Pioneer Curator and Art Agent in the Gilded Age” by Carolyn Kinder Carr

SUMMARY:Virtual | Equity & Representation in Contemporary Art - A Panel Discussion for Black History Month
DESCRIPTION:12pm ET | 11am CT | 9am PT\nOver the course of time in America\, large swaths of art history have been omitted\, erased\, or ignored. This absence has created a significant void in the narrative around how people of African descent and people of color have contributed to the artistic canon. \nThe impact presents significant disadvantages for artists of color. From artists that have difficulty gaining representation\, to art historians overlooking Black and Brown artists’ contributions\, to collectors that do not have access to works they would like to acquire\, the playing field has never been level. Bias shows up in art schools\, in institutions\, in hiring practices\, in the primary and secondary art market\, and in the critical voices that influence all of the above. \nRecent news of high-profile curatorial appointments are a move in the right direction. However\, there is significant work that remains to be done. What kind of new and inclusive art world can we as art professionals help to create ? \nJoin us for this interactive session on a very timely and important topic. The discussion will address questions surrounding this subject including: \n\nWhat are the barriers to equity and representation and how can we\, as leaders\, make a difference toward that goal?\nWhat does it feel like to be an “outsider” in the art world?\nWhy does diversity and representation matter?\nHow can institutions and art spaces be more accessible to all?\nBlack art is “hot” right now. Why?\nHow does diversity in art help us to understand each other in a complex multicultural society?\n\nPanel Participants: \n\nJune Edmonds\, Award-Winning Artist\, Los Angeles\, CA\nChela Mitchell\, Art Advisor and Founder of Komuna House Global Arts Club\, New York\, NY\nDr. Kimberli Gant\, McKinnon Curator of Modern & Contemporary Art at the Chrysler Museum of Art\, Norfolk\, VA\nModerated by Lynne Toye\, Founder of Art Unpacked\, New York\, NY\n\nPlease join us after the discussion for 10-15 minutes of virtual networking in Zoom Breakout Rooms! In pre-pandemic times\, ArtTable programs were a time for members and non-members to connect with old friends and meet new people\, and we aim to simulate that in the virtual realm! \nAdmission \n\nNon-Members – $15\nArtTable Members – $10\nArtTable Circle Members – Free\n\nNot a member? Join today!  \nCan’t make the program at this time? Register anyway to receive a recording after! \nHow to take part: \n\nClick here to Register for this program.\nFollowing registration you will receive call-in information in the form of a ZOOM link.\nBefore joining a Zoom meeting on a computer or mobile device\, you can download the Zoom app from the Download Center and select the “Zoom Client for Meetings” option.

Her work explores the relationship between death and identity. Reflecting on a personal experience of loss\, she states\, “The impact that it has on me is extreme\, prompting me to question my identity: who I am now and who I was before I lost them.” Birdsong completed her BFA from Humboldt State University. She is currently an MFA candidate at the San Francisco Art Institute. \nAmy Elkins works primarily in photography and with a series-based approach that oscillates between formal\, conceptual and documentary. She has spent the past fifteen years researching\, creating and exhibiting work that explores the multifaceted nature of masculine identity as well as the psychological and sociological impacts of incarceration. Elkins received her BFA in Photography from the School of Visual Arts in New York. She is currently an MFA candidate in the Art Practice program at Stanford University. She has exhibited and published both nationally and internationally. \nClaudia Huenchuleo Paquien is a multimedia artist based in San Francisco. An urban Mapuche descendant\, born and raised in Chile\, her work reflects on feelings of sadness\, nostalgia\, and dislocation as collective constructions in attunement to places and territories. Through collage\, photography\, and installation\, her work interrogates the way in which memory\, culture\, and race function in relation to Indigenous contemporary identities and new systems of knowledge. Huenchuleo Paquien graduated from University of Concepción\, Chile\, with a degree in psychology. She completed a Post Baccalaureate in Visual Arts at UC Berkeley Extension. She is currently a third year MFA candidate at San Francisco State University. \nThank you to Northern California Chapter Executive Committee members Donna Napper\, Co-Chair and Maren Jones\, Finance Chair for organizing this program. \n\nImages clockwise from top left: Dominique Birdsong\, A Conversation\, 2019\, clay\, concrete\, red LED light and wood base; Amy Elkins\, Holding Pattern\, 2020\, pigment print on adhesive fabric\, stop motion animation on two 13” Clear Tech Televisions\, print on cotton\, used prison uniforms\, stainless steel hangers\, industrial steel pipes and fittings.
