SUMMARY:New York | 'Triennial: Soft Water Hard Stone' at the New Museum
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a curatorial welcome and self lead walkthrough of Soft Water Hard Stone\, the fifth New Museum Triennial which brings together works across mediums by forty artists and collectives from around the world. The title of the exhibition is taken from a Brazilian proverb\, versions of which are found across cultures: Água mole em pedra dura\, tanto bate até que fura (Soft water on hard stone hits until it bores a hole). \nThe title speaks to ideas of resilience and perseverance\, and the impact that an insistent yet discrete gesture can have in time. It also provides a metaphor for resistance\, as water—a constantly flowing and transient material—is capable of eventually dissolving stone—a substance associated with permanence\, but also composed of tiny particles that can collapse under pressure. \nIn this moment of profound change\, where structures that were once thought to be stable are disintegrating or on the edge of collapse\, the 2021 Triennial recognizes artists re-envisioning traditional models\, materials\, and techniques beyond established paradigms. Their works exalt states of transformation\, calling attention to the malleability of structures\, porous and unstable surfaces\, and the fluid and adaptable potential of both technological and organic mediums. \nSoft Water Hard Stone is curated by Margot Norton\, Allen and Lola Goldring Curator at the New Museum\, and Jamillah James\, Senior Curator\, The Institute of Contemporary Art\, Los Angeles (ICA LA)\, with Jeanette Bisschops\, Curatorial Fellow\, and Bernardo Mosqueira\, ISLAA Curatorial Fellow. \n  \n\nThis program is $10 for ArtTable members. Capacity is limited. Not a member?

Everett\, art historian\, museum educator\, curator\, and children’s book author\, and ArtTable member is an Associate Professor in Art History in the Department of Art at Howard University\, Washington\, D.C. She formerly served as Associate Dean for the Division of Fine Arts\, Director of the Howard University Gallery of Art\, and Chairperson of the Department of Art. Everett received her Ph.D. from George Mason University\, Fairfax\, Virginia\, MA in Art History from Howard\, and a BA from Spelman College\, where she majored in Studio Art. She is currently co-organizing a symposium\, “Alma W. Thomas and David Driskell: Journeys in Art\,” with the Howard University Department of Art and the Phillips Collection to coincide with Alma Thomas and David Driskell exhibitions on view at the Phillips\, November 13\, 2021. \nArtTable member Renee Maurer is Associate Curator\, The Phillips Collection\, and coordinating curator for the Phillips’s presentation of the Alma W. Thomas: Everything is Beautiful exhibition. Other exhibitions she has coordinated include Riffs and Relations: African American Artists and the European Modernist Tradition\, guest curated by Adrienne Childs in 2020; A Modern Vision: European Paintings from The Phillips Collection and its tour (2017–2020); Toulouse-Lautrec Illustrates the Belle Époque (2017); Gauguin to Picasso: Masterworks from Switzerland (2016); American Moments: Photographs from The Phillips Collection (2015); Georges Braque and the Cubist Still Life: 1928–1945 (2013); and Jasper Johns: Variations on a Theme (2012). Prior to working at the Phillips\, she was a research assistant at the National Gallery of Art. She received her BA from Dickinson College and her MA from George Washington University. \nAbout the exhibition\nAlma W. Thomas: Everything Is Beautiful provides a fresh perspective on the artist’s dynamic long life (1891-1978) and multifaceted career that was defined by constant creativity. This major retrospective traces her journey from semi-rural Georgia to Washington\, DC\, to become the first Black woman given a solo show at the Whitney Museum of American Art at age 80. Through artworks and archival materials\, this exhibition demonstrates how Thomas’s wide-reaching artistic practices extended far beyond her studio. It helped shape every facet of her life—from community service to teaching to gardening. \nEverything Is Beautiful contextualizes Thomas’s art and life within her creative community\, delving into her association with Howard University\, American University\, and the Barnett Aden Gallery\, which she helped co-found. Some of her works are placed alongside examples by her friends and contemporaries\, such as Loïs Mailou Jones and Morris Louis\, who also helped shape the DC art scene. The exhibition offers an intimate look at this inspiring cultural icon who used her imagination and ingenuity to lead a rich and beautiful life. \nClick here to read more about the exhibition. \n  \nThank you to Renee Maurer\, Associate Curator\, and Erica Harper\, Educator\, The Phillips Collection.\n \n\nImages: \n\nAlma Thomas\, Pansies for Washington\, 1969\, acrylic on canvas\, National Gallery of Art\, Corcoran Collection (Gift of Vincent Melzac)\nDr. Gwendolyn Everett\nRenee Maurer\nIda Jervis\, Alma Thomas at Home\, 1968\, gelatin silver print.
