Hello
All
Happy New Year!
Happy New Year!
Proud
to announce an
exhibition with
my good friend Jessica
Slaven of
new, colorful
and visually
charged abstract
works on paper
at Gallery
263 in
Cambridge, MA.
In
our work the
processes of
weaving,
unweaving,
embroidering,
dyeing, and
sewing—typically
reserved for
fabrics and
fiber—have come
to inhabit our
drawing and
painting
practices. I
have used
inherited
clothing to
create quilts
and embroidered
pieces, and have
since moved
towards
examining the
weave structure
of fabric and
translating it
into 2-D. Sewing
was integral to
Jessica’s
sculptural work,
and for four
years she built
her career as a
commercial
textile
designer,
weaving and
putting textiles
into production.
Now, she adapts
those skills and
experiences for
painting.

Pentimenti Gallery is excited to present
JACKIE TILESTON: Everything is Everything, a solo exhibiti
This
show includes paintings on
linen, mixed media works on
paper, and digital prints.
Each piece acts as a gateway
to spaces that are vast and
all encompassing, while also
feeling strangely close and
familiar.
Calling
on the interaction of
contrasting visual elements
and art historical
references, Tileston has
created an atmosphere that
plays by its own rules,
while paralleling our own in
a heterotypic fashion.
Ecosystems in themselves,
they are alive with opaque
mandala-like ornamentation,
trails that surface and
recede on vaporous threads,
murky rifts, fields of
nebulous color, and
landmasses built of thick
oil paint. Each element is
actively engaged with the
others, sometimes violently,
other times harmoniously.
These visual structures
succeed in developing a
synchronized habitat of
“otherness”, a place that is
collectively neither here
nor there.
“Painting
has an ability to open up
alternative visual
experiences that can
specifically align us with
internal spaces, altered
states of consciousness,
euphoria, complexity, and
the unpresentable.
Abstraction, especially, is
an expert intermediary,
translating the nonverbal
and not quite visible
realities into perceivable,
material form. Paintings can
function as runners between
realms, physical and
philosophical both.” (Tileston)
Jackie
Tileston received
her BFA from Yale
University, New Haven,CT,
and her MFA in painting from
Indiana University,
Bloomington, IN. Tileston
has had exhibitions at
the Discovery Museum,
Bridgeport,CT; Contemporary
Art Museum, Houston, TX;
Schweinfurth Memorial Art
Center, Auburn, NY; Rockland
Center for the Arts, West
Nyack,NY; The Rutgers
University, Camden, NJ; and
more. Her work is in
collections including: JP
Morgan Chase; Museum of Fine
Arts in Houston; Dallas
Museum of Art; West Virginia
University Art Museum, and
more. She has been awarded
the Joan Mitchell Foundation
2011 Painters and Sculptors
Grant. The 2006 John Simon
Guggenheim Memorial
Foundation Fellowship for
Painting as well as many
others. Jackie Tileston is
represented by Pentimenti Gallery

Rachael Pease MFA '06 Metamorphosis at BEAUX-ARTS DES AMÉRIQUES
Metamorphosis
Her ability to convey both the vitality of growth and the natural cycle of decay has opened up a new window into the mystery and fascination that trees will always have. Sensitive to her place, her time, knowing that the world changes and hoping that trees will remain, she has taken to documenting specific trees. She has taken the trouble to learn their history and documents their location as well as their age and their background.

Joan Oh (MFA '15) "Tutorial" Opening at Vox Populi Sept. 4
Joan Oh is a Chicago native with a BFA in Photography at the Corcoran College of Art + Design in Washington, D.C. Subsequent to that, she attended the University of Pennsylvania and received her MFA in Interdisciplinary Studies. She currently lives and works in Philadelphia, PA.
Focusing on the spatial elements between video and installation, Oh’s practice analyzes tradition and unspoken codes of behavior; turning to the context of the ordinary to resurface artifacts of human experiences.
Joan Oh’s Tutorial presents an installation of trial and errors. HowTo.com undertakes the process of butchering a chicken and roasting it to eat, only using instructions found online. PBR Gong attempts to achieve positive karma through the strike of a Pabst Blue Ribbon, as it provides an interesting study on the autonomy of contemporary alternative coolness. Her videos appropriate the genre of guidance, commenting on an emergent culture while occupying the space in order to stage an intervention within it.

DRIP DROP DRAG - Chiara No (MFA '15) in Two Person Show with Nick Mayer at Current Gallery, Baltimore, MD - Opens 8/15 6pm
DRIP DROP DRAG
“I
identify my work as drawings, with reflections of painting. By
transcoding painting's novelty and ability to act as communicative
object, I create
a platform to play out inherent relationships between hegemonic
masculinity, sexual slang, simulation and sensibility.” - Nick
“My
approach to materials and manipulations stems not from postmodern
parody of minimalism but more as a compulsive and repetitive
impregnation of
loss through material, process and history.” - Chiara
We
have entered a state of co-acting; Taking cues from each other by means
of image, technique, vocabulary and historical reference. It’s a
relationship
where we memorialize each other's material and manipulative processes.
In turn, making work that exists independently on top of one another as a
man and a woman.

UPenn/Tyler Class of 2015 in group show - Opening Reception is May 14th 6-9pm
Is a group show of the 2015 MFA students from Tyler School of Art and the University of Pennsylvania @ Crane Arts. 1400 N. American St. Philadelphia, PA
Exhibiting Artists: María G. Albornoz, Natessa Amin, Antony Anderson, Grimaldi Baez, Jennifer Berman, Martin Blake, Elizaveta Buzytsky, Kate Clements, Moira Connelly, Dominic D’Andrea, Lindsay Deifik, Alex Echevarria, Jorge Galvan, Charles Hall, Jacob C.

NO MEAT IN TEAM is an exhibition featuring 40 artists graduating from the MFA programs at Tyler School of Art and the University of Pennsylvania in 2015. Organized and curated by a team of MFA candidates from both schools, this exhibition congregates two of Philadelphia’s most prominent academic programs in an effort to visualize the concerns common to both institutions. The title, No Meat in Team, plays with the collaborative nature of the project and the shared objective of both programs to come together in a productive way. This exhibition, initiated, organized and curated by students, signals a critical step made by both communities to begin actively addressing each other not simply as mutual residents of a city but as contemporaries working in the same field.
Curated by: Natessa Amin, Filipe De Sousa, Andrew Negrey Joan Oh Gonzalo Reyes Rodriguez, and Michael Taylor
Organized by: Martin Blake, Alex Echevarria, Jacob C Hammes, Joan Oh, Chiara No, and Annie Zverina

Help the UPenn Graduating class of 2015 have a Philadelphia group show with Tyler School of Art
Our intention is to contribute to the Philadelphia community through collaboration among programs. We hope, through our success of our first show, to be able pass the torch to our successors and have it become a tradition for years to come.
Because of the parallel pursuits of artmaking that both PennDesign and Tyler share in common, we have been asking ourselves the these questions: How do educational environments shape students into the artists they will become? How are artists able to translate the work they do into a life and career outside of the school where they receive so much support? Most importantly, we agree that visibility is vital for art forms of all kinds.
The exhibition is to be installed at the ICEBOX gallery in the beautiful and historic Crane Arts building. We, the graduating MFA students of 2015 are attempting to independently raise the money for our group show. This is where you, our friends and family, come in! We have pulled what money we have to fund the show but we still need $2500. This amount covers the rent for one month, building and paint supplies to construct walls in the gallery and for transportation costs.
This is not a PennDesign funded event. It is funded by us, the graduating class of 2015 so any amount will be help, even if it is just $5. We need to raise the money by April 30th. You can donate money to our GoFundMe account. Just click on the link!
We thank you for taking the time to read our plea for help!
Artist Talk with Mohammadreza Mirzaei (MFA '14) at Sazmanab Center for Contemporary Art
On the occasion of his recent exhibition at O Gallery, Mohammadreza Mirzaei will speak about his work with a focus on his recent published photobook and his two latest exhibitions at O Gallery and No.6 Gallery in Tehran. The two exhibitions with ironic titles "New Photographs" and "Newer Photographs" featured photographs that were shot in Iran and abroad, and mostly in public places.
During the artist talk, we will have a closer look at Mirzaei’s recent book "Here Comes the Sun" published by University of Pennsylvania Common Press. The book was designed by Italian graphic designer Filippo Nostri and contains twenty one photographs, a writing by Mirzaei and an essay written by curator Carlos Basualdo.
Mohammadreza Mirzaei (b.1986) is an Iranian photographer and writer based in Tehran. He is the founder and the editor of Dide Magazine, an online magazine dedicated to contemporary Iranian photography. Mirzaei was one of the jurors of International Photobook Award in 2011. He holds an MFA from University of Pennsylvania and he now teaches Photography and History of Art at the Professional Photography Institute in Tehran.

Maya Brym (MFA Alum) in group show in NYC - OPENS April 16 6-8pm
frosch&portmann is pleased to present “so different, so appealing”, a group exhibition with Maya Brym, Paul Loughney, Vicki Sher and Sheri Warshauer.
“so different, so appealing”—a title in loose reference to the 1956 pop art collage Just what is it that makes today's homes so different, so appealing? by British artist Richard Hamilton—brings together four artists whose works are distinctive but share a fascination with the domestic space. Working in different media such as collage, drawing and painting, the artists create a shifting landscape of domesticity. In exploring tensions between interiors and modern architecture, the exhibition offers different views into the private space by juxtaposing familiarity with the unknown.
With her paintings, Maya Brym creates still lifes of exterior and interior modern architecture. Her houses, set in front of dark mountain formations, are cut open and reveal shifting perceptions allowing a glimpse into alternate spaces. The artist grew up in a 1970s modern house which influenced her imagery; intrigued by the optimism of modern architecture and lifestyle, the artist is interested in transforming and re-contextualizing in a way that acknowledges flux and a space for the unknown.
Using negative space and shadows, Paul Loughney’s collages reconfigure the interior and render different perspectives on presence. These new narratives lead to a sense of ambiguity and mystery in the nebulous realm between the familiar and unrecognizable forms. While Richard Hamilton’s collage focuses on the materials and symbols of comfort that define the era in which they were consumed, Loughney’s work displays the interior as a timeless entity. Devoid of bodies and objects, they encapsulate the many previous lives which inhabited them.
Just like breezing through lifestyle magazines, Sheri Warshauer's work takes a voyeuristic look at architecture and interior design of the tastefully affluent. Her paintings and collages poke fun at the efforts behind displaying wealth through art and furniture in modern homes. Warshauer uses layers of paint, colored pencil and cut paper images to bring her scenes to life. She puts the Modernist’s American Dream on display for all to see what can be attainable if one has the eye, money and taste to acquire it.
Vicki Sher is interested in the quiet moments of everyday life. Furniture, houseplants and bowls of fruit populate her images alongside whimsical lines and color, suggesting just enough of an interior to set the stage for contemplative wandering. Sher wants you to fill in the empty space, but also wants you to understand the value of limited information. Hereditary subjects are commonplace, crummy couches and generic plants, but each character gets to take center stage, every line is elevated to a solo note by the removal of surrounding noise.
