SUMMARY:Meryl Blinder: Aquatic
DESCRIPTION:The current installation in the Frame 301 space is Meryl Blinder’s: Aquatic on view through Sunday\, March 29\, 2015. The group of five panels represents Blinder’s interest in how color and patterns excite our visual pathways\, engage our senses and can be conveyed through the traditional mediums of oil painting and pencil drawing. \nThe painted canvas acts as both a window and a surface. Oil paint\, when loosely applied\, is translucent and the layering of colors conveys depth and space and pencil lines are precise and repetitive. They contrast with the depth of oil paint ground as they delicately incise the canvas surface. Blinder utilizes Orange and blue\, which are complements and opposites: the warm and cool colors appear to advance and recede. \nDrawing and color have had an important role throughout Blinder’s career. She spent 10 years working as a colorist for the architect Michael Graves. While there\, she worked on color models and renderings. She also created patterns and color for such projects as Disney Dolphin\, Swan hotels and the Denver Public Library. As a courtroom sketch artist\, Blinder documented events for television news stations in Connecticut and New York. Her work has also been commemorative; she has exhibited 2 drawing installations at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts on World AIDS day in 2000 and 2001 and her drawing in reaction to the World Trade Center bombing is in the permanent archive of the Library of Congress. Blinder currently has a studio in Boston and teaches color and drawing at the School on Architecture and Design at Wentworth Institute in Boston.

SUMMARY:Seven: A Performative Drawing Project
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception: Every Friday 7-9pm\nHours\nMon. – Thurs. 10 am – 5 pm\nFri. 10 am – 1 pm \nEvents Hotline\n978.921.4242 x3 \nMontserrat Galleries is thrilled to announce the third iteration of SEVEN: A Performative Drawing Project from January 12 – March 28\, 2015. Over the course of seven weeks\, seven artists will be asked to ‘draw’ directed onto the seven gallery walls of Montserrat Gallery\, highlighting the performative aspects of drawing and the individual nature of each artist’s process. The gallery will operate as an open studio\, effectively putting the creative process on display. SEVEN challenges the traditional definition of ‘drawing’\, inviting artists to mark make in a variety of disciplines and considering the final drawings residue of an artistic performance. \nAugust Ventimiglia’s “Swell”\, a mural of blue chalk-snap lines resembling a wave\, will span an eighteen foot wall. Sign-painter Kenji Nakayama executes a meditative\, highly-trained craft to investigate personal and social realities. Samantha Fields deconstructs and reconstructs found textiles on a loom\, inspired by repetitive actions. Christopher Mir’s ‘automatic image collisions’ are paintings of contemporary mythologies influenced by song lyrics\, jpegs and photographs. Montserrat Alumnus Adam Miller’s commitment to comics and illustration emerge from his dynamic sequential drawings. Montserrat Faculty Mark Hoffmann incorporates influence of southern folk art and americana with a humorous and personal style. Nadia Westcott creates graphic murals with an emphasis on the ways in which public and site-specific art can empower viewer communities. \nJanuary 12 – 16: August Ventimiglia\nOpening Reception Friday\, January 16\, 7-9p \nJanuary 19 – 23: Kenji Nakayama\nOpening Reception Friday\, January 23\, 7-9p \nJanuary 26 – 30: Samantha Fields\nOpening Reception Friday\, January 30\, 7-9p \nFebruary 2 – 6: Christopher Mir\nOpening Reception Friday\, February 6\, 7-9p \nFebruary 9 – 13: Adam Miller\nOpening Reception Friday\, February 13\, 7-9p \nFebruary 16 – 20: Mark Hoffmann\nOpening Reception Friday\, February 20\, 7-9p \nFebruary 23 – 27: Nadia Westcott\nOpening Reception Thursday\, February 26\, 7-9p

SUMMARY:Franklin Evans: juddrules
DESCRIPTION:Reception: Sept 17\, 5:00 – 8:00p \nGallery Hours\nMon. – Thurs. 10 am – 5 pm\nFri. 10 am – 1 pm \nOpen Studios: M – Th\, 11:10a – 12:30p \nEvents Hotline\n978.921.4242 x3 \nMontserrat College of Art is proud to present juddrules featuring New York-based artist Franklin Evans. While Evans considers himself first and foremost a painter his works are process-based physical environments\, surrounded by the very source materials that conceptually inform his paintings. “It’s like walking into a painting\,” describes Evans\, anticipating how Montserrat Gallery will evolve into a ‘landscape’ of ephemeral and factual materials over the course of his three week residency. \nAt first glance the space resembles a studio more than a gallery: long strands of painters tape\, unstretched canvas mounted to the walls\, books\, low resolution printed out photos and stacks of paper implies that the audience is literally “stepping into” a work in progress. Evans utilizes the gallery as a site of production\, rather than an endpoint in which show a “finished” product. By revealing cultural references influential to his work such as theoretical texts\, art historical documents\, exhibition press releases\, digital images\, etc.\, Evans creates a web of interconnected ideas. \nLeonie Bradbury\, Director and Chief Curator of Montserrat Galleries describes the artist’s work as a network. “The artwork exists in a state of flux\, continuously transitioning\, wavering between assembled and dismantled\, reconnecting and disconnecting\, configuring and reconfiguring to form moments of coalescence.” The inclusion of both found objects (tape\, photos\, books) and his fine art paintings work together to illustrate an expansive view into Evans’ history and biography as an artist. The flux between big picture thematics and personal items within the installation creates a constant loop of informing and influence. \nAnother way that Evans communicates sources of influence and inspiration is through the titles of his work. For example\, paintingassupermodel\, a recent solo-exhibition at Ameringer McEnery Yohe Gallery (New York) expanded upon three essays in Yves-Alain Bois’ book\, Painting as Model. For his exhibition at Montserrat\, Evans will work with the writings of Minimalist artist\, Donald Judd\, specifically those that were highlighted or underlined during Evans’ original reading of the text. Creating self-imposed guidelines or “rules” for which excepts to incorporate into the installation results in the title\, juddrules. \n*Franklin Evans will be in residence installing juddrules August 24 – September 16\, 2014. If you want to meet the artist or talk about his work come back during “open studio hours” Mondays-Thursdays 11:10am – 12:30pm OR contact Assistant Curator of Exhibitions\, Pam Campanaro: pamela.campanaro@montserrat.edu OR Curator of Education\, Maggie Cavallo: maggie.cavallo@montserrat.edu to schedule a visit. \nwww.franklinevans.com
