SUMMARY:New York | Cristina Iglesias' 'Landscape and Memory' Tour & Reception at Madison Square Park
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for an in-person tour of Cristina Iglesias’ Landscape and Memory\, on view at Madison Square Park in New York City. The tour will be led by ArtTable Member Brooke Kamin Rapaport\, Deputy Director and Martin Friedman Chief Curator at Madison Square Park Conservancy. Drinks will also be served.  \n\n\n\nSpanish artist Cristina Iglesias invites the public to consider the forgotten terrains and geographic history of New York City in a new public art installation opening this June\, her first major temporary public art project in the United States. Landscape and Memory places five bronze sculptural pools\, flowing with water\, into Madison Square Park’s Oval Lawn\, harkening back to when the Cedar Creek coursed across the land where the park stands today. Building on Iglesias’ practice of unearthing the forgotten and excavating natural history\, Landscape and Memory resurfaces in the imaginations of contemporary viewers the now-invisible force of this ancient waterway. More information about the exhibition can be found below. \n\n\n\nLandscape and Memory is organized by Brooke Kamin Rapaport\, Deputy Director and Martin Friedman Chief Curator; Tom Reidy\, Deputy Director of Finance and Special Projects; and Truth Murray-Cole\, Curatorial Manager. Keats Myer is the Conservancy’s Executive Director. \n\n\n\nThis program is open to ArtTable Members only for $15. Capacity is limited. \n\n\n\nNot a member?

Through the Conservancy\, she established Public Art Consortium\, a national initiative of museum\, public-art-program\, and sculpture park colleagues. In 2019\, she served as Commissioner and Curator of the United States Pavilion at the 58th International Art Exhibition\, La Biennale di Venezia\, with a representation of artist Martin Puryear. \n\n\nRapaport has worked as a museum curator\, independent curator\, and art writer. During her 13-year tenure at the Brooklyn Museum\, she organized numerous exhibitions and wrote corresponding catalogues in her roles as assistant and then associate curator of contemporary art. As part of the Brooklyn Museum’s Grand Lobby series of installations\, she worked with contemporary artists to realize their projects. As guest curator at The Jewish Museum\, New York\, she organized Houdini: Art and Magic (2010)\, an interdisciplinary exhibition on the life and enduring significance to contemporary artists of the magician and escape artist Harry Houdini\, and the retrospective exhibition Louise Nevelson: Constructing a Legend (2007). Rapaport has also held positions at the Whitney Museum of American Art\, New York\, and the Jamaica Arts Center in Queens\, New York. She is a contributing editor and frequent writer for Sculpture magazine and a regular lecturer\, moderator\, panelist\, and catalogue essayist on contemporary art and public art. \n\n\n\nRapaport received her B.A. cum laude in art history from Amherst College and completed her M.A. in art history from Rutgers University. She is also the recipient of a Helena Rubinstein Fellowship in Museum Studies from the Whitney Museum’s Independent Study Program. She sits on the Board of Directors of Socrates Sculpture Park in Long Island City\, Al Held Foundation\, von Rydingsvard and Greengard Foundation and is Vice President of the Adolph and Esther Gottlieb Foundation in New York. She currently serves on the board of the Mead Art Museum at Amherst College. \n\n\n\nAbout the Artist\n\n\n\nCristina Iglesias shapes large-scale\, site-specific sculpture and installations that probe the tension between past and present\, ancient and contemporary. Resisting the asceticism of the Minimalist movement\, Iglesias initially created grid-like structures in natural materials that were suspended to assemble pavilions and architectural spaces. Beginning in the 2000s\, Iglesias began to incorporate water into her permanent outdoor projects and sculptures. \n\n\n\nIglesias’s work has been the subject of solo presentations at museums internationally\, including Centro Botín\, Santander\, Spain (2018); Museo Reina Sofía\, Madrid (2013); Ludwig Museum\, Cologne (2006); Whitechapel Art Gallery\, London (2003); and Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum\, New York (1997). She additionally has been commissioned to create major projects and installations at Bloomberg headquarters\, London (2017); Fondaciòn Botin\, Santander (2017); Tres Aguas at Toledo\, Spain (2014); Mexican Foundation of Environmental Education\, Baja\, California (2010); Museo del Prado\, Madrid (2007); and Royal Museum of Fine Art\, Antwerp (2006). The Museum of Fine Arts Houston opened Iglesias’ major permanent outdoor commission\, Inner Landscape (the lithosphere\, the roots\, the water) (2020) in front of the new Kinder Building. Last summer she realized Hondalea (2021)\, transforming a lighthouse into a sculpture on Santa Clara Island in the Bay of Donostia\, San Sebastián\, Spain. \n\n\n\nIglesias represented Spain at the Venice Biennale (1986\, 1993) and at the Biennale of Sydney (1990\, 2012); at the Carnegie International\, Carnegie Museum of Art\, Pittsburgh (1995); the Taipei Biennial (2003); at the SITE Santa Fe Biennial (2006); and at the Folkstone Triennal (2011). \n\n\n\nIglesias was born in San Sebastián\, Northern Spain in November 1956. She studied Chemical Sciences in the University of the Basque Country (1976 – 1978)\, and ceramics and sculpture at the Chelsea College of Art in London (1980 – 1982). She was granted a Fulbright scholarship to study at Pratt Institute (1988) and was appointed Professor of Sculpture at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste\, Munich (1995). \n\n\n\nHer studio is in Madrid\, Spain. \n\n\n\nAbout the Exhibition (Continued)\n\n\n\nFor Landscape and Memory\, Iglesias digs deep into the park’s lawns to install five subterranean bronze sculptures carved with intricately patterned bas-reliefs. A subtle stream of water continuously trails across the sculptures’ hollowed surfaces. This evokes the constancy of water slowly eroding rocky surfaces across millennia. The installation conjures the existence of unseen ancient streams that continue to run beneath modern cities\, connecting the urban present with its primordial past. It connects us to abstract ideas of what lies beneath. \n\n\n\nNodding to historian Simon Schama’s major 1995 volume of the same name\, which surveyed the history of landscape across time and terrain\, Landscape and Memory is informed by Iglesias’ research into the history of the site. For the project\, Iglesias located and studied historic maps that document the water flow through Madison Square Park\, where the Cedar Creek once coursed. With nineteenth-century industrialization\, streams like the Cedar were buried underground to create additional land for building sites\, underground drains\, or sewers. Through Landscape and Memory\, Iglesias renders this history visible again\, inviting viewers to contemplate centuries of transformation of urban sites that were once natural. \n\n\n\nAbout Madison Square Park Conservancy\n\n\n\nMadison Square Park Conservancy cultivates and enlivens Madison Square Park\, a dynamic seven-acre public park in New York City’s Flatiron District and one of the city’s most treasured green spaces. Through its public art commissions\, horticultural stewardship\, and engaging programming\, the nonprofit creates an urban oasis that welcomes a diverse community of over 60\,000 visitors each day. Keats Myer is the Conservancy’s Executive Director. \n\n\n\nSince 2004\, the Conservancy has become a leader in commissioning new works of public art\, curating and presenting over 40 major site-specific installations and solo exhibitions through its art programming. Led by Brooke Kamin Rapaport\, Deputy Director and Martin Friedman Chief Curator\, the program invites leading artists to push the boundaries of their practice and create risk-taking new works that experiment with materiality\, scale\, and theme in response to the park’s unique environment. The ambition of the commissioning program expands each year alongside the diverse range of innovative artists including Diana Al-Hadid\, Tony Cragg\, Abigail DeVille\, Leonardo Drew\, Maya Lin\, Iván Navarro\, Martin Puryear\, Arlene Shechet\, Ursula von Rydingsvard\, and Krzysztof Wodiczko. \n\n\n\nIn 2019\, the Conservancy served as the commissioning institution for the U.S. Pavilion at the Venice Biennale\, marking the first time that an organization whose visual art program focuses exclusively on public art has received this honor. With Rapaport serving as Commissioner\, the Conservancy presented new work by Martin Puryear. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nImage: Cristina Iglesias overseeing the installation of Landscape and Memory\, courtesy of Madison Square Park Conservancy

Click here to get directions from your location. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Artist\n\n\n\nBorn in Washington and raised in Idaho\, Sara Schroeder is a contemporary painter currently living in Miami\, Florida. She dedicated time to her formal fine art education until 1998\, when she decided to take an extended break to raise young children. She has since furthered her education and established her artistic practice. In her works\, Schroeder explores the interplay between corporeal experience and ethereal space through highly gestural and bright abstract paintings. In 2019\, the Miami Design Preservation League selected Schroeder as the Art Deco Museum’s “Featured Local Artist\,” and in 2021 she was chosen as Alto’s Featured Miami Artist for the luxury ride-share company’s “Alto + The Arts” initiative. Schroeder’s work is collected by many art enthusiasts and has been included in multiple group exhibitions across Florida. \n\n\n\nAbout the Taking Up Space Initiative & From Here to There\n\n\n\nJamie Smith of Thrive Artist Network and Kaylan Buteyn of Artist/Mother Network co-launched the Taking Up Space Initiative. As part of this initiative\, female artists are challenged to put on solo or group shows in their communities to actively take up space within the world. Within this context\, Sara Schroeder’s exhibition focuses on the passage of time from the onset of the Covid pandemic until now. It investigates interactions and conversations between physical and emotional experiences. \n\n\n\nEach of the 100 small mixed media works on paper represents one such conversation\, expressed through the abstract interplay of two forms of information. Holistically\, the continuous body of work presents a narrative of the “there” of intuition and senses\, and the “here” of our immediacy and awareness. \n\n\n\nTo Schroeder\, seeing how world events affected her sense of stability\, and watching her temperament and her understanding of her painting vocabulary transform over time\, is a reminder that every individual has their own story. With this awareness\, the artist created works that built on the idea of continuously moving forward\, with glimpses of ideas and small steps moving us along towards a larger whole. \n\n\n\n“From There To Here is a visual journey through one of the strangest times in my own life and in the history of the world\,” says Sara Schroeder. “Showing this collection feels like sharing hope and encouragement\, and I’m thrilled to be doing it at Art at the Citadel and under the umbrella of the Taking Up Space Initiative\, joining hundreds of female artists around the world to do exactly that: contribute a small piece to help build something massive.”
