SUMMARY:Virtual | Reimagining Public Monuments: Old Stories & New Narratives
DESCRIPTION:6pm ET | 5pm CT | 4pm PT\nWe are delighted to present Monuments & Memorials: Then & Now\, a three part series about the history\, context and creation of public monuments and memorials. \nThis first panel will introduce milestones and controversies of past memorials and monuments. We will hear from Professor Harriet F. Senie\, Professor of Art History at C.U.N.Y. and its Graduate Center\, who will offer her perspective on The Evolution of Monuments: Paradigms and Underlying Issues based on her 30 years of experience teaching\, writing and participating on national selection commissions in the field of public art. She is joined by artist Alison Saar\, who will reflect on her much admired permanent 2007 Harriet Tubman Monument in Harlem\, a case study\, in New York City where there are few monuments to women or non-white males. We will also hear from artist Marisa Williamson\, who is known for reimagining under-represented historical subjects by bringing these figures to life through performance art and augmented reality (AR). She will speak about her practice using new narratives and new media for contemporary audiences. Cathie Behrend\, ArtTable New York member who co-organized this series\, will introduce the program and panelists. \nThe second panel in this series will be announced in the coming weeks and will focus on Reimagining Public Monuments & Memorials: Through Other Lenses. What have we seen? Whose stories will we now tell? Who will decide? Who will provide funding? What visions do artists now imagine for the future? A third panel in September will wrap up the series with a focus on the Preservation of Public Monuments & Sacred Spaces at Home & Abroad. We hope you will join us for all three! \nWe also look forward to sharing more information on an upcoming walking tour of Harlem with Cathie Behrend that will highlight monuments and memorials in the neighborhood\, including Alison Saar’s “Swing Low: Harriet Tubman Memorial” and the Frederick Douglass Sculpture and Water Wall.

SUMMARY:Virtual | Professional Empowerment: Repatriation of Cultural Heritage w/ Leila Amineddoleh
DESCRIPTION:12pm ET | 11am CT | 9am PT\nPlease join us for a discussion with Leila Amineddoleh\, internationally recognized expert on art and cultural heritage crime and law and Founder of Amineddoleh & Associates\, LLC on the topic of repatriation of cultural heritage. \nFor centuries\, sought-after art objects and antiquities have been subject to high-profile ownership disputes. From the smuggling of religious artifacts out of the Holy Land to Hitler’s extensive looting of artistic property\, cultural objects have been targeted by rapacious collectors and leaders. The British Museum’s ownership of the Parthenon Marbles is perhaps the best-known cultural heritage debate\, yet legal battles are often not the focus of such intense public scrutiny. The presentation will examine antiquities disputes\, including a discussion of the laws that regulate ownership of cultural heritage and the evolution of the art market. \nArtTable’s Professional Empowerment program series invites experts to share their professional experiences\, knowledge and skills. Each session presents an opportunity to engage with and learn more about a topic\, issue or skill that directly impacts the professional lives of our members. If you have a topic or idea for a Professional Empowerment program\, email us at programs@arttable.org! \nAdmission \n\nNon-Members – $15\nArtTable Members – $10\nArtTable Circle Members – Free\nMembers may bring an additional guest for $5\n\nNot a member?

SUMMARY:Virtual | Artist Talk with Shahzia Sikander
DESCRIPTION:12pm ET | 11am CT | 9am PT\nArtTable’s Artist Talk series is made possible by the Pollock Krasner Foundation. Originally formatted as in-person Artist Breakfasts\, ArtTable has moved all programming into the virtual realm during the pandemic. Please join us for a virtual Artist Talk with Shahzia Sikander. \nShahzia will talk about individual works she created from 1988 to 2003\, elaborating on the evolution of her unique visual lexicon as she negotiated a language between the pictorial traditions of Central and South Asia and contemporary practices\, through the lens of her experience from Pakistan to the US as an immigrant pre and post 9/11 and how that period’s shifting socio-political culture shaped her broader practice. \nAdmission \n\nNon-Members – $10\nArtTable Members – $5\nArtTable Circle Members – Free\nMembers may bring an additional guest for $5\n\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.

If you require additional accommodations\, please email programs@arttable.org. \n\nAbout Shahzia Sikander\nPioneering Pakistani-American artist Shahzia Sikander is one of the most influential artists working today. Sikander is widely celebrated for expanding and subverting pre-modern and classical Central and South-Asian miniature painting traditions and launching the form known today as neo-miniature. By bringing traditional and historical practice into dialogue with contemporary international art practices\, Sikander’s multivalent and investigative work examines colonial archives to readdress orientalist narratives in western art history. Interrogating ideas of language\, trade\, empire\, and migration through imperial and feminist perspectives Sikander’s paintings\, video animations\, mosaics and sculpture explore gender roles and sexuality\, cultural identity\, racial narratives\, and colonial and postcolonial histories. \nSikander earned a B.F.A. in 1991 from the National College of Arts in Lahore\, Pakistan. Her seminal thesis work\, The Scroll (1989–1990) which initiated the start of the neo-miniature movement\, garnered awards\, exhibitions and press\, as well as led to increased enrollment in the NCA’s miniature painting department. Subsequently\, Sikander was appointed as a lecturer in miniature painting at the school. The artist then moved to the United States to pursue an M.F.A. at the Rhode Island School of Design from 1993 to 1995; from 1995 to 1997\, she participated in the Glassell School of Art’s CORE Program at The Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston. A recipient of a MacArthur Fellowship (2006) and the State Department Medal of Arts (2012)\, Sikander’s innovative work has been exhibited and collected internationally. \nShahzia Sikander will be the subject of a traveling exhibition titled Shahzia Sikander: Extraordinary Realities. The exhibition will open at The Morgan Library in New York in June 2021\, followed by the RISD Museum in Providence\, Rhode Island in November 2021\, and then the MFA Houston in Texas in Spring 2022. On the occasion of these exhibitions\, there will be a major new monograph printed. Extraordinary Realities is an exhaustive examination of Sikander’s work from 1987 to 2003\, charting her early development as an artist in Lahore and the United States\, and foregrounding her critical role in bringing miniature painting into dialogue with contemporary art. Edited by Jan Howard and Sadia Abbas\, with contributions by Gayatri Gopinath\, Faisal Devji\, Kishwar Rizvi\, Sadia Abbas\, Jan Howard\, Vasif Kortun\, Dennis Congdon\, Bashir Ahmed\, Rick Lowe\, and Julie Mehretu. \n  \nThis program is generously supported by the Pollock-Krasner Foundation.

SUMMARY:Virtual | Luise Kaish and Women Artists in America\, with Gail Levin
DESCRIPTION:12pm ET | 11am CT | 9am PT\nPlease join us for a discussion with Gail Levin\, Distinguished Professor of Art History\, American Studies\, and Women’s Studies at the City University of New York. Levin is Judy Chicago’s and Lee Krasner’s biographer\, and an acknowledged authority on Edward Hopper\, having written his catalogue raisonné\, his biography\, and many other publications. She is the editor and author of Theresa Bernstein: A Century in Art; a co-editor of Ethics and the Visual Arts; as well as contributor to the recently published monograph Luise Kaish: An American Art Legacy. Levin will speak about the work of pioneering artist Luise Kaish\, in the context of the history of women artists in America. \nLuise Clayborn Kaish (1925–2013) was a pioneer. A key figure in the New York art scene of the late 20th century\, her multidisciplinary practice and process-oriented work spanned a range of mediums\, materials\, techniques\, and themes. The strength and breadth of her work—monumental sculptures in bronze\, oil paintings\, watercolours\, lithographs\, collage—and the prestigious awards and fellowships she received set her apart as an early female leader in the visual arts. Dedicated to absorbing world cultures through travel and research\, Kaish studied a broad range of subjects from architecture\, design\, and engineering to spiritualism\, metaphysics\, and the cosmos. Through her wide-ranging practice\, she explored the spaces and connections between material\, natural\, and spiritual worlds. The publication Luise Kaish: An American Art Legacy celebrates her immense talent\, highly individual point of view\, far- reaching influence\, pursuit of the sublime\, and passion for life. \nAdmission \n\nNon-Members – $10\nArtTable Members – $5\nArtTable Circle Members – Free\nMembers may bring an additional guest for $5\n\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.

SUMMARY:Virtual | Fierce Poise: Helen Frankenthaler and 1950s New York
DESCRIPTION:2pm ET | 1pm CT | 11am PT\nJoin us for a discussion with Alexander Nemerov\, author of Fierce Poise: Helen Frankenthaler and 1950s New York\, and Sarah Kirk Hanley\, an independent prints and editions expert and critic based in the New York area\, who is currently writing an essay for the Dulwich Picture Gallery for their Fall exhibition of woodcuts by Helen Frankenthaler. \nDr. Nemerov’s biography of Frankenthaler encompasses her life and work beginning with her college years at Bennington\, where Nemerov’s father was her English teacher\, and Clement Greenberg\, her first significant romantic partner\, gave seminars in Art history and organized exhibitions. Nemerov concentrates his text on Frankenthaler of the 1950s which\, Karen Wilkin’s review of the book writes\,” she was notably strong and inventive\, almost from the start at a time when artists were expected to spend years maturing before their work was considered to be worthy of attention.” Nemerov acknowledges her importance as an Ab-ex painter and also writes about Freudian sources of her lifetime romantic relationships. There is a great deal to unpack about this major abstract woman artist of the twentieth century. \nAdmission \n\nNon-Members – $15\nArtTable Members – $10\nArtTable Circle Members – Free\n\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.
