SUMMARY:DC | An Evening with Italian Duo Goldschmied & Chiari
DESCRIPTION:6pm ET\nJoin ArtTable’s DC Chapter for a special evening featuring Italian duo\, Goldschmied & Chiari\, who are visiting the United States for the closing of their exhibition Magnifica on view at Marymount University’s Cody Gallery. Sara Goldschmied and Eleonora Chiari will give a short talk about their exhibition\, along with curator Allison Nance and Cody Gallery director\, Caitlin Berry. Complimentary wine and hors d’oeuvres will be served. \nThis program is open to ArtTable members and guests only.\n \nAdmission \n\nArtTable Members – $20\nMembers may bring a guest for an additional $15\n\nNot a member? Join today! \n\n\nPlease review before registering:\n Covid-19 Guidelines Please note that by registering for this event you consent to have your contact information shared with ArtTable to be used in the event that contact tracing is needed. In compliance with University and state guidelines\, masks are optional for vaccinated guests and recommended for unvaccinated guests.  Accessibility Please email programs@arttable.org if you require accessibility information for this program.  Getting There Cody Gallery of Marymount University is located inside Ballston Center at 1000 North Glebe Road\, 2nd Floor. Street parking and Capital Bikeshare are available. The gallery is located near the Metroline Orange: Ballston-MU. \n  \n\n  \n\nAbout the Artists\nMilan-based artists Sara Goldschmied (b.1975\, Arzignano) and Eleonora Chiari (b.1971\, Rome) have been working together as the artist-duo Goldschmied & Chiari since 2001. Sara and Eleonora met in the late 1990s through a shared interest in photography and feminism activism. Their shared interests soon led to joint art projects and a remarkable two-decade-long partnership. They have earned widespread respect and recognition\, both in Italy and internationally\, through their innovative use of photography\, video\, performance\, and installations. Much of their work draws conceptually from philosophy\, social studies\, and their historical Italian background. Their dynamic of working as a duo fundamentally impacts their approach to every project. They state that their most essential tool “…is our relationship as an artist duo because it feeds our art practice\, for example\, so that we see multiple sides of one issue.” Magnifica was organized by International Arts & Artists in partnership with the Embassy of Italy and the Italian Cultural Institute in Washington\, DC\, in collaboration with Marymount University. This project is supported by the Directorate-General for Contemporary Creativity by the Italian Ministry for Cultural Heritage and Activities and Tourism under the 2019 Italian Council Program. \nAbout the Exhibition\nThis exhibition is a collaboration by many ArtTable Members of the DC chapter\, all of whom will be in attendance. They are Allison Nance\, Curator; Caitlin Berry\, Cody Gallery Director; Maria Sancho-Arroyo\, Catalog Essayist; Ruth Abrahams\, Catalog Designer. Funds raised from this program will support the DC chapter locally\, including our intern\, who receives a stipend for her work coordinating chapter activities and communications. Your contribution makes a real impact on the growth and mentorship opportunities in our chapter\, thank you! \nIn Magnifica\, Goldschmied & Chiari bring together new work from their iconic Untitled Views series\, stylized with billowing pink and purple shades of smoke reminiscent of abstract blooms\, deconstructing the very notion of portraying an idea\, a face\, a sensation\, an architectural space. Three vase sculptures in pink blown Murano glass debut in this exhibition; the anthropomorphic shapes of these Magnifica vases are sensual and dangerous\, drawing inspiration from carnivorous pitcher plants in deep reds and purples\, and from lipstick kisses in bold pinks. The artists worked with craftsmen from the Italian island of Murano to create these vases\, a process which involved breathing and blowing\, thus\, a human mouth has created a mouth-like vase\, which conceptually blows the colored smoke integral to their Untitled Views. \n  \nThank you to Allison Nance and Caitlin Berry from ArtTable’s DC Chapter for organizing this program. \n\nImage: Left: Eleonora Chiari and Sara Goldschmied.

All programs are non-refundable. \n\nAbout Dorothy Moss\nDorothy Moss\, PhD is a curator of painting and sculpture at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Portrait Gallery (NPG). Her recent projects include the exhibition and book Hung Liu: Portraits of Promised Lands (Yale University Press\, 2021) and The Obama Portraits (Princeton University Press\, 2020). In 2015\, Moss initiated IDENTIFY\, the NPG’s first performance art series featuring internally recognized artists\, including Maria Magdalena Campos-Pons\, James Luna\, and Jeffrey Gibson. Her upcoming exhibitions are One Life: Maya Lin (September 2022) and Kinship\, with curators Leslie Ureña\, Robyn Asleson\, and Taína Caragol (October 2022). \nAbout the exhibition\nHung Liu (1948–2021) was a contemporary Chinese-born American artist\, whose multilayered paintings established new frameworks for understanding portraiture in relation to time\, memory\, and history. Often sourcing her subjects from photographs\, Liu elevated overlooked individuals by amplifying the stories of those who have historically been invisible or unheard. Having lived through war\, political revolution\, exile\, and displacement\, she offered a complex picture of an Asian Pacific American experience.

Fletcher is responsible for guiding the museum’s collection of African American art. Prior to joining the National Gallery\, Fletcher worked at the Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston\, where she oversaw the presentation of such major traveling exhibitions as Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power and Odyssey: Jack Whitten Sculpture\, and began the co-organization of the U.S. iteration of Afro-Atlantic Histories\, an exhibition that was first conceived and presented by the Museum de Arte São Paulo in Brazil. The exhibition was displayed at the MFA\, Houston in fall 2021/winter 2022 and is now open at the National Gallery. Fletcher has published essays in books and journals and presented research at international conferences on Afro-diasporic art as it relates to politics of the body\, gender\, and labor as well as aesthetics and the avant-garde. Institutions where she previously worked include the Bronx Museum of the Arts\, The Museum of Modern Art\, and the New Museum of Contemporary Art. Since 2013\, she has curated an ongoing video art series for Landmarks public art program at the University of Texas at Austin. Fletcher received a B.A. in English Literature from Rutgers University-New Brunswick\, an M.A. in Latin American Studies with concentrations in Art History and Brazilian Studies from University of Texas at Austin\, and a PhD in History of Art from Cornell University. \n \nMolly Donovan is curator of contemporary art at the National Gallery of Art\, where she has worked since 1993. Together with NGA colleagues Kanitra Fletcher and Steven Nelson\, Molly has co-curated Afro-Atlantic Histories which opened on April 10\, 2022\, at the National Gallery following its debut at the Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston\, and an earlier iteration in São Paulo\, Brazil. Donovan’s notable recent projects include the monographic exhibition of work by Lynda Benglis\, drawn from the National Gallery’s collections which just closed in January\, and the major show featuring British sculptor Rachel Whiteread\, on which she collaborated with Tate Britain\, where it opened in London in 2017 before traveling to Vienna\, Austria\, Washington\, DC\, and ultimately to the Saint Louis Art Museum in 2019. Additional exhibitions that Donovan organized include In the Tower: Barbara Kruger (2016 – 2017); Warhol: Headlines\, which opened in Washington in 2011 before it travelled to Frankfurt\, Rome\, and Pittsburgh; and Christo and Jeanne Claude’s in the Vogel Collection in Washington and La Jolla in 2002. In 2016\, Donovan inaugurated thematic installations for the contemporary collection of the National Gallery\, including “Bodies of Work\,” “Flow\,” and “Markers and Signs.”  Her acquisitions for the National Gallery of Art have reshaped its collection to include more works by living artists\, particularly women and people of color. Molly has written and lectured on numerous artists (in addition to the aforementioned)—including Janine Antoni\, Byron Kim\, Kimsooja\, Glenn Ligon\, Richard Tuttle\, and Ursula von Rydingsvard—and on the subject of art in public space. She holds a Master of Arts degree with a concentration in 20th century art from the Graduate Program in the History of Art at Williams College\, and a BA in English from Georgetown University.

It was founded by artists in 1974 and has been housed since 1976 in a historic school building. The facility includes nine exhibition galleries\, working studios for twelve artists\, and two classrooms. \nAbout the Exhibitions\nLaunched in 2019\, Assembly is the Museum of Contemporary Art Arlington’s biennial exhibition program\, which highlights the material and conceptual trends being explored by contemporary artists in the present moment. The artists in Assembly 2022: Time and Attention demonstrate a deep commitment to process and craft\, which is channeled through materials and into research. Through these carefully considered approaches\, they are creating work that speaks to the present moment in ways that feel both urgent and timeless. In what feels like a moment of ongoing\, even perpetual\, crisis they bring this focused approach to issues that are fundamental to contemporary American life\, including questions of identity\, history\, immigration\, place\, and belonging. \nLet Them Kids Be Kids\, a solo exhibition by MoCA Arlington resident artist Lex Mari\, uses the playground as a framework with which to examine the joys of Black childhood and the ways in which issues of race and equity are inscribed on the site. Employing images from her personal life to examine these ideas\, Lex Marie’s newest paintings and installations address the issue of adultification bias as she makes the case that all children have a right to innocence. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nImages: \n\n\n\n\nMandy Cano Villalobos\, Bluer Skies for Brazen Hips\, 2022\, Installation view from Assembly 2022: Time & Attention at MoCA Arlington.

SUMMARY:*FULL* New York\, NY | Dia Chelsea Chryssa Exhibition Tour with Megan Holly Witko
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a tour of Chryssa & New York at Dia Chelsea led by exhibition curator Megan Holly Witko. Co-organized by Dia Art Foundation and the Menil Collection\, Chryssa & New York is the first comprehensive survey of works by Greek-born artist Chryssa (1933–2013) to take place in North America since 1982. A leading figure of the New York art world in the 1950s and ’60s\, Chryssa developed an innovative approach to activating sculptural surfaces through subtle manipulations of light and shadow. Pathbreaking in its use of signage\, text\, and neon\, her vastly under-recognized body of work bridges Pop\, Conceptual\, and Minimalist ideas of art making. This exhibition focuses on works from these decades through to the early 1970s\, bringing together Chryssa’s deeply formal concerns and critical interest in exploring the United States following World War II. \n\n\n\nDIA Chelsea 537 W 22nd St\, New York\, NY 10011 \n\n\n\nThis tour is open to ArtTable members and $15 for guests.

SUMMARY:Washington\, DC | BreakfastTable with Mary Early\, HEMPHILL Artworks
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a morning conversation and gallery tour with Mary Early\, Director of HEMPHILL Artworks\, featuring the exhibition: Prints & Works on Paper.Prints and Works on Paper (March 18 – May 6\, 2023)The 19 artists presented in Prints & Works on Paper worked from the mid-1930s through 2014. While the work spans almost a century\, it was made within the shared social and political context of the Black experience in America. These artists did not perceive a line where activism ended and art began. Believing that pictures could make a difference\, they were invested in advocating for justice\, empowerment\, and community through education; the intentionality of creating editioned prints in a workshop setting reflects this dedication. Printmaking facilitated a wider distribution of their messages\, allowing artists to be deliberate about connection and reaching a larger audience. Imagery portraying a rich social life offered viewers positive self-representation\, verity\, and aspiration for the future. The private collection of 38 works passionately assembled over a 30-year period\, is honest in content and impressive in technique\, both captivating the audience and effectively conveying the artworks’ significance. By boldly broadcasting their identities while the art world was systematically prejudiced\, the artists in Prints & Works on Paper documented a difficult past and visualized a brighter future.Ron Adams\, Benny Andrews\, Romare Bearden\, John Biggers\, Elizabeth Catlett\, Robert Colescott\, Allan Rohan Crite\, Aaron Douglas\, Sam Gilliam\, Palmer Hayden\, Jacob Lawrence\, Norman Lewis\, Lois Mailou Jones\, Alison Saar\, Charles Sebree\, Renée Stout\, James Lesesne Wells\, Charles White\, Hale Woodruff \n\n\n\nAdmission: \n\n\n\n\nArtTable Members – complimentary\n\n\n\nMember Guests – $10\n\n\n\n\nNot a member?

The exhibition schedule features contemporary art ranging in media from emerging to mid-career and established artists. In addition to these shows\, the gallery mounts exhibitions of historically-significant artwork and socially relevant subjects. The diversity of this schedule is designed to showcase important talent and provide artwork that appeals to a broad range of interests. \n\n\n\nFrom its beginnings\, HEMPHILL has advised corporate and private collectors. This initial client base was built upon contacts and experiences gained in academia\, with private galleries\, and with architectural and design firms. HEMPHILL’s consulting and advisory work has expanded to include companies and individuals worldwide. HEMPHILL offers collectors the chance to experience a broad range of aesthetic experiences both through the gallery exhibition program and through private viewing opportunities. It also provides an opportunity to be directly involved in the artists’ community as well as the creative process. \n\n\n\nSpecial events include the ongoing ART TALKS series\, artist book signings\, and charitable vents for area nonprofits. Begun in 1998\, the ART TALKS series includes educational lectures on topics such as collecting for beginners\, artist talks\, and panel discussions on issues in contemporary art. In 2020\, HEMPHILL inaugurated a new gallery space in Washington’s historic Mount Vernon Square neighborhood. Featuring an open gallery floor plan and glass partitions that invite guests into the office area\, the design allows for increased interaction and conversation. As we enter 2023\, the third year in this new space and the third year of a global pandemic\, we continue to welcome first-time visitors.

SUMMARY:Washington\, DC | Tour of "Philip Guston Now" at the National Gallery of Art with Nathalie Ryan
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special private tour of Phillip Guston Now exhibit at the National Gallery of Art with Senior Educator Nathalie Ryan. The exhibition charts the 50-year career of one of America’s most influential modern artists through more than 150 paintings and drawings. Guston’s story is one of epic change—of artistic styles\, from muralism to abstract expressionism to figuration\, of degrees of political and social involvement\, and of levels of personal confession in his work. Renowned in his time and in ours\, Guston’s work continues to resonate\, attract\, and provoke\, raising crucial questions about the relationship of art to beauty and brutality\, freedom and doubt\, politics and the imagination.Nathalie A. Ryan has contributed to education programming\, publications\, and exhibitions to the National Gallery of Art since 2002. She has twenty years of demonstrated experience in conceptualizing\, implementing\, and evaluating outcome-based programming for museums and other educational institutions. Nathalie is also an Instructor at the Harvard Graduate School of Education\, coaching K-12 teachers and administrators in arts and thinking-centered learning frameworks.

SUMMARY:Washington\, DC | Curator-led tour of "1898: U.S. Imperial Visions and Revisions" National Portrait Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Join co-curators Taína Caragol and Kate Lemay for an exclusive tour of “1898: U.S. Imperial Visions and Revisions” at the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery! “That single year launched the United States on a path that would end with the annexation of Hawaii\, intervention in Cuba\, and the invasions of Puerto Rico\, the Philippines and Guam—profound geopolitical changes resulting from U.S. domination during the Philippine-American War (1899-1902) and the Spanish-American War (April to August 1898)\, now often referred to as the War of 1898.”—Maya Wei-Haas\, The Smithsonian Magazine. \n\n\n\nPortraiture is part of how we represent ourselves\, and how we memorialize our historic public figures from the heroic to the problematic. 125 years after this extensive series of conflicts\, the U.S. continues to grapple with its imperial legacy. The Smithsonian exhibition revisits these representations from multiple\, culturally-complex perspectives\, “and recognizes that the Smithsonian Institution’s collecting practices legitimized the imperial project.”Please see the Museum’s Visitor Page for Health\, Safety\, and Accessibility information. \n\n\n\n\nArtTable Members – suggested donation $10\n\n\n\n\nNot a member?

Caragol has led the effort to increase the representation of Latino historical figures and artists at the museum\, adding over 170 portraits to the collection and ensuring that Latino contributions to American history and art are interwoven through the museum’s exhibitions and permanent collection. \n\n\n\nIn 2014\, she was the lead curator for “Portraiture Now: Staging the Self\,” which examined the forces that shape identity–from friendships\, to gender dynamics\, and histories of migration–through the work of contemporary Latino artists. In 2015\, she curated “One Life: Dolores Huerta\,” exploring Huerta’s role as co-architect of the farm workers movement with César Chávez. She co-curated “The Face of Battle: Americans at War\, 9/11 to Now” (2017) and “UnSeen: Our Past in a New Light\, Ken Gonzales-Day and Titus Kaphar” (2018).  \n\n\n\nPreviously\, Caragol was the curator of education at Museo de Arte de Ponce\, Puerto Rico\, where she organized the museum’s symposium on Pre-Raphaelite art and led a program of talks with contemporary Puerto Rican artists. She was the Museum of Modern Art’s Latin American bibliographer from 2004-2007\, and she worked as a postdoctoral researcher for Latin American Art in the United Kingdom: History\, Historiography\, Specificity\, 1960 to the Present\, an investigation led by the University of Essex (2007–2008). \n\n\n\nCaragol earned her PhD in art history from the City University of New York. Her dissertation “Boom and Dust: The Rise of Latin American and Latino Art in New York Exhibition Venues and Auction Houses\, 1970s–1980s\,” examined the incubating role of New York City’s alternative museums and art spaces and market during the “Latin American art boom” of the late 1980s. Her essay on Kehinde Wiley’s portrait of President Barack Obama was published in The Obama Portraits in February 2020 (Princeton University Press / National Portrait Gallery). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nKate Clarke Lemay\, Historian\, joined the National Portrait Gallery in 2015. She is a Fulbright Scholar; a Presidential Counselor to the National WWII Museum; and the founding director of PORTAL\, the Portrait Gallery’s scholarly center. Lemay also served as the founding coordinating curator for the Smithsonian American Women’s History Initiative. In 2019\, Lemay curated “Votes for Women: A Portrait of Persistence” to usher in the centennial of the U.S. American women’s suffrage anniversary. She published its eponymous catalogue with Princeton University Press which was awarded the 2021 Smithsonian Secretary’s Prize for Excellence in Research and the 2020 Amelia Bloomer Book Award from the American Library Association. \n\n\n\nIn 2017\, Lemay’s first book Triumph of the Dead: American WWII Cemeteries\, Monuments and Diplomacy in France was awarded the Terra Foundation in American Art publication grant. In 2018\, she served as guest editor for The International Journal of Military History and Historiography. She has published essays on art and military history for the University of North Texas Press\, Oxford University Press\, The Strategy Bridge\, Zócalo Public Square\, Reviews in American History\, and the Marine Corps University Press. Lemay’s research has been supported by a Terra Foundation in American Art predoctoral fellowship at the Smithsonian American Art Museum\, a fellowship in American Modernism at the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum Research Center\, and a fellowship from the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique at the Caen Mémorial Museum in France. Lemay served as the lead historian for the transformation of the museum’s landmark exhibition “America’s Presidents” (2017). Her other exhibitions include “Marlene Dietrich: Dressed for the Image” (2017). \n\n\n\nBefore joining the National Portrait Gallery\, Lemay was an assistant professor of art history at Auburn University Montgomery and visiting assistant professor of the history of modern and contemporary art at Brigham Young University. She earned a dual PhD in American art history and American studies from Indiana University (Bloomington).
