SUMMARY:Chicago | Tour & Reception: 'Theodora Allen: Saturnine' at the Driehaus Museum\, with Anna Musci & Stephanie Cristello
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a tour of Theodora Allen: Saturnine at the Driehaus Museum. Prior to the tour\, enjoy a private half-hour reception with Anna Musci\, Executive Director of the Driehaus Museum\, and Stephanie Cristello\, the Exhibition Curator. Stick around afterwards for a Gilded Age cocktail demo and tasting! \n\n\n\nThe exhibition marks the latest iteration of the Museum’s newest initiative: A Tale of Today. It features work by leading contemporary artists to expand the immersive experience and to shape our understanding of the world through the art\, architecture\, design\, and cultural history of the Nickerson Mansion\, the Museum’s home. Curated by Stephanie Cristello\, Theodora Allen: Saturnine derives its title from figure of Saturn and its historical association with melancholy\, often referred to as the curse of artists. Visitors to the Museum will see Allen’s luminous and meditative compositions. They are filled with a lexicon of snakes\, planets\, moons\, and plant life – motifs that draw from ancient Greek mythology\, literature\, fin-de-siècle Europe\, and the zeitgeist of 1960s California. \n\n\n\nAdmission: \n\n\n\nArtTable Members – $35Member Guests/Non-Members – $45\n\n\n\nYour ticket includes the tour and access to the reception as well as discounted general admission to the museum. \n\n\n\nNot a member?

Melissa is an Art Historian with a focus in Post-war Italian art\, and contemporary art theory and practices. At the Deering Estate she oversees the historic house museums\, coordinates and curates exhibitions\, programing and directs the Estate’s multi-tiered Artist in Residence Program including visual\, performing and literary arts. \nPrior to the Deering Estate\, she held positions in several museums and galleries throughout South Florida including the Institute of Contemporary Art Miami\, David Castillo Gallery\, and Miami Art Museum (now Pérez Art Museum Miami). She also manages and oversees studio operations for Leonardo Drew.

Melissa was first recipient of the Liesbeth Bollen Award from the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice\, Italy. \nBecky Franco was born in Havana\, Cuba. She escaped Cuba with her family in 1961. She completed in the United States a BFA with Honors from Pratt Institute\, New York in 1974. Becky has always been interested in painting on a large scale influenced by the Photo Realist movement of the seventies. Upon graduating\, she sought employment in the difficult and male dominated field of outdoor advertising\, where she got the opportunity to create large hand painted billboards and had the distinction to prove herself as a competent female artist. She became the first female billboard artist to be hired in the outdoor industry and join The Sign & Pictorial Display Union\, Local #230 in the U.S. \nShe painted large billboards for fifteen years and when digital computer imaging threatened the outdoor advertising industry making it extinct\, she shifted her focus by becoming an independent art professional gaining many private Painting and Mural commissions. Her paintings were featured in many publications including Newspapers and a Rizzoli book called Tromp L’Oeil At Home by Karen Chambers. Becky has always remained interested in the expansion and refinement of her skills. To that end\, after many years as an independent art professional\, in 2008 she returned to academia to attain an MFA from Queens College\, New York. In 2011 Becky was awarded the Artist Residency Express + Local: NYC Aesthetics at The Queens College Art Center\, Rosenthal Library\, Flushing\, New York. Becky’s paintings have been exhibited in a number of group shows\, a two woman exhibition\, and most recently at The Islip Art Museum exhibition about Caribbean artists called LA PLACITA where the New York Times interviewed her about her work. In 2013 Becky had her second solo exhibition CHOSEN at Soho20Chelsea gallery\, New York. Most recently El Museo Del Barrio included two of her paintings in LA BIENAL 2013\, Here Is Where We Jump. \nIn 2014 Becky was a Cintas Fellowship Finalist – Museum of Art + Design in Miami.
