JILL MOSER// LECTURE + VISITS // WEDNESDAY 5 JUNE

Jill Moser lecture 

Wednesday 5 June at 6PM

UCLA Graduate Studios

8535 Warner Dr., Culver City, 90232

Jill Moser’s paintings are deceptively lucid and satisfyingly complex. She lays down lines of a single color on a pure white ground and realizes compositions both taut and at ease. The lines are swift yet stilled, fixed and embedded in the residue of a process of erasure and adjustment. Incremental marks and events of the hand establish an environment in which the usual relationship of figure to ground becomes indeterminate. The deep space carved by Moser’s looping, repeating, rhythmic line punctures the ground and establishes a velvety void at the areas where lines converge and give over their identity as line to form.  

Jill Moser lives and works in New York City. She has exhibited since the 1980s in galleries and museums throughout the United States and Europe. Her paintings, drawings and prints are included in many museum and public collections including The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Museum of Fine Arts Houston, The National Gallery of Art, Yale University Art Museum and The Fogg Art Museum. Recent projects include an artist book with poet Charles Bernstein, a collaboration with designer Marion Cage, and print editions with Landfall Press, Mid-Mark Studio, Brand X and Burnet Editions. She has taught at Princeton University, SUNY New Paltz & Empire State College and Virginia Commonwealth University. She is represented by Lennon Weinberg in NYC.

ANNA BETBEZE / VISITS + LECTURE / THURSDAY 30 MAY

Visits and Lecture  

6PM Thursday 30 May

UCLA MFA Graduate Studios

 8535 Warner Dr. Culver City, CA 90232

Using Greek Flokati carpets as a ground for a mix of pigments that range from brilliant to muddy, Anna Betbeze creates unexpectedly textural paintings that verge on the sculptural.

Cutting, tearing, and burning her wool supports with acid dyes (before machine-washing them), the artist creates a dynamic relationship between color-saturated forms and the negative space of the wall behind. Hung from simple nails, the transformed rugs sag and drape under the force of gravity, coming to rest gently on the floor. Conjuring associations as diverse as oriental carpets, the Minimalist felt sculptures of Robert Morris, and 1970s era woven wall hangings, these seductive, layered works offer an expanded take on abstract painting.  

ANNA BETBEZE WAS BORN IN 1980 IN MOBILE, AL, AND GREW UP IN COLUMBUS, GA. SHE RECEIVED HER BFA FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA IN 2003 AND HER MFA FROM YALE UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF ART IN 2006, WHERE SHE CURRENTLY TEACHES IN THE PAINTING DEPARTMENT. SHE LIVES AND WORKS IN NEW YORK, NY.

BETBEZE HELD HER FIRST SOLO SHOW, MOSS GARDEN, AT KATE WERBLE GALLERY IN FEBRUARY 2011. RECENT SOLO PROJECTS INCLUDE MOONS, LÜTTGENMEIJER, BERLIN, DE (2012); ANNA BETBEZE: NEW WORK, MASSACHUSETTS MUSEUM OF CONTEMPORARY ART, NORTH ADAMS, MA (2012); AND WORMHOLES, FRANÇOIS GHEBALY GALLERY, LOS ANGELES, CA (2012).

HER WORK HAS BEEN SHOWN AT INSTITUTIONS AND GALLERIES INCLUDING PHILADELPHIA INSTITUTE OF CONTEMPORARY ART, PHILADELPHIA, PA; MITCHELL-INNES & NASH, NEW YORK, NY; EMMANUEL PERROTIN, PARIS, FR; TONYA BONAKDAR GALLERY, NEW YORK, NY; JOSH LILLEY GALLERY, LONDON, UK; VAN HORN, DÜSSELDORF, DE; BRAND NEW GALLERY, MILAN, IT; MODERN COLLECTIONS, LONDON, UK; RAMIKEN CRUCIBLE, NEW YORK, NY; AND THE LOWER MANHATTAN CULTURAL COUNCIL SWING SPACE, NEW YORK, NY. IN THE SPRING OF 2011, BETBEZE WAS FEATURED IN UNPAINTED PAINTING, AT LUXEMBOURG & DAYAN, NEW YORK, NY. HER WORK WILL BE INCLUDED IN EXPO 1: NEW YORK AT MOMA PS1, LONG ISLAND CITY, NY, IN SPRING 2013.

HER WORK HAS BEEN REVIEWED IN PUBLICATIONS INCLUDING THE NEW YORK TIMES, THE NEW YORKER, ARTFORUM, NEW YORK MAGAZINE, FRIEZE D/E, THE LOS ANGELES TIMES, THE L MAGAZINE, TIMEOUT NEW YORK, AND ARTINFO.

BETBEZE IS THE RECIPIENT OF THE 2013 - 2014 HAROLD M. ENGLISH/JACOB H. LAZARUS – METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART ROME PRIZE.

PROFESSOR MIWON KWON // STUDIO VISITS on FRIDAY 24 MAY

Miwon Kwon is trained in architecture, holds a MA in photography, and has extensive curatorial experience from her tenure at the Whitney Museum of American Art in the early 1990s. She received her PhD in Architectural History and Theory at Princeton University in 1998, the same year in which she joined the faculty at UCLA to teach contemporary art history (post-1945). Her research and writings have engaged several disciplines including contemporary art, architecture, public art, and urban studies. She was a founding co-editor and publisher of Documents, a journal of art, culture, and criticism (1992-2004), and serves on the advisory board of October magazine. She is the author of One Place After Another: Site-Specific Art and Locational Identity (MIT Press, 2002), as well as lengthy essays on the work of many contemporary artists, including Francis Alÿs, Michael Asher, Cai Guo-Qiang, Jimmie Durham, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Barbara Kruger, Christian Marclay, Ana Mendieta, Josiah McElheny, Christian Philipp Müller, Gabriel Orozco, Jorge Pardo, Richard Serra, James Turrell, and Do Ho Suh, among others. A major historical exhibition entitled “Ends of the Earth: Land Art to 1974,” co-organized with Philipp Kaiser, is on view at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles (closes Sept. 3, 2012) and will travel to Haus der Kunst in Münich, Germany (opens October 10, 2012). The exhibition catalogue of the same title is published by Prestel. Her next project will be a book-length study of the work of Felix Gonzalez-Torres.

Professor Kwon will be at Warner on 24 May, for 5 studio visits starting at 1:30PM. 

ANALIA SABAN ANNOUNCEMENT // STUDIO VISITS and BURKHARDT LECTURE ON 22 MAY

Analia Saban's (b.1980, lives and works in Los Angeles) work emanates between sculpture, painting, collage, photography and print-making. Mining art history in her experiments in color, form, and materials, she works in flat and sculptural media to debunk the mysteries associated with fine art, to delightful, sometimes, poignant formal effect. Her processes – across media, dimension, and scale turn to an exploration of physicality and time. Paintings are expanded to sculptural forms; sculptures are presented in two-dimensional strategies; and the patina of age is reproduced through a deft use of computer-aided methodology. Recent exhibitions include solo shows at Sprueth Magers, Berlin and Praz-Delavallade, Paris.

Analia will be here for 5 visits, starting at 1:30 PM on Wednesday 22 May, followed by a Burkhardt Lecture at 7PM.

LESLEY VANCE // Studio visits on Wednesday 08 May

From the WHITNEY.org:

"Inspired by the seventeenth-century Spanish still-life tradition, Lesley Vance carefully arranges and lights objects such as fruits or shells. The artist then photographs these arrangements, and the resulting images serve as the basis for her abstract paintings. Vance creates these paintings by manipulating wet paint with a palette knife, erasing and editing her strokes until she feels that the final form has revealed itself. Although these works lack any perceptible trace of the original photographic composition, they retain the intimacy and refinement of a traditional still life."

Vance received her MFA from Cal Arts in 2003. Recent exhibitions include "Painter Painter" at the Walker Art Center (2013), and a solo exhibition at Xavier Hufkens Gallery (2012), 

Lesley will be at Warner on Wednesday 08 May for 6 studio visits starting at 11 AM. The Sign up will be posted on Tuesday 30 April at 11 AM.

JANE AND LOUISE WILSON // Studio visits on 26 April and Lecture @ HAMMER on 30 April

JANE AND LOUISE WILSON // Studio visits on 26 April and Lecture @ HAMMER on 30 April

From MOMA, a biography:


Twins Jane and Louise Wilson were born in 1967 in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, England. From 1986 to 1989, Jane studied art at Newcastle Polytechnic and Louise studied at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design in Dundee. For their concurrent BA degree shows, they showed identical bodies of work, and from that point on they have continued to collaborate on photographs and videos. They both attended Goldsmiths College in London, receiving MA degrees in 1992.

The twins’ early work comprises photographs and films of performances. Garage(1989–93) is a large black-and-white photograph of Jane, noose around her neck, pouring water into an aquarium and over Louise’s head. Hypnotic Suggestion(1993) features video footage of the twins under hypnosis. The Wilsons’ work took a more political turn with Stasi City (1997), a four-screen video projection filmed at the former Stasi police headquarters in East Berlin. Since this project, the Wilsons’ work has explored Modernism and its ambitions through specific historical sites. They filmed at the American military base in Greenham Common, England, for Gamma (1999). Dreamtime (2001) was filmed during a Russian rocket launch at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan, the world’s largest space-launch center. A Free and Anonymous Monument (2003) uses four video screens to address the history of Victor Pasmore’s Apollo Pavilion, an architectonic sculpture built at the center of the town of Gateshead, England, and now covered with graffiti and regarded as a symbol of the failure of Modernist urban planning. This abstract structure is juxtaposed in the film with an oil rig whose function conversely dictates its form. For a 2006 exhibition at the Lisson Gallery entitled The New Brutalists, the Wilsons created an installation comprised of videos and large-scale photographs of the decrepit sites that once served as military outposts for the German Third Reich; such employment of brutalist architecture for violent ends extends the artists’ examination of the haunting afterlife of Modernist axioms.

The Wilson sisters have had exhibitions at the Centre d’Art Contemporain in Geneva (1997), Kunsthalle Hamburg (1999), the Tate in London (2000), Kunst-Werke Berlin (2002), Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art in Gateshead, England (2003), and Bergen Art Museum in Norway (2005), among other venues. In 2005, the Wilsons were invited by the Royal Opera House in London to design sets for their production of Michael Tippett’s The Knot Garden. They have also exhibited widely in international group shows, including the Carnegie International (1999), Korean Biennial (2000), Istanbul Biennial (2001), Moving Pictures at theGuggenheim Museum Bilbao (2003), Remind at the Kunsthaus Bregenz, Austria (2003), and Out of Time at the Museum of Modern Art in New York (2006). In 1999, they were shortlisted for the Turner Prize. They live and work in London.


Sign up will be posted on Tuesday 23 April at 11 AM. Either 5, 30 minute appointments will be available, or 3, 45 minute appointments. Meetings will begin at 2PM.  

In addition to a lecture at the HAMMER on Tuesday 30 April, the Wilsons will be giving at artists talk at LACMA at 730pm on Thursday 25 April. See links below:

STERLING RUBY

ARTIST

"Sterling Ruby works prolifically in a wide range of mediums, from glazed biomorphic ceramics and poured urethane sculptures, to large-scale spray-painted canvases, nail polish drawings, collages and videos. Through his varied practice he conducts an assault on materials and social structures, referencing subjects that include marginalised societies, maximum-security prisons, modernist architecture, artefacts and antiquities, graffiti, bodybuilders, the mechanisms of warfare, cults and urban gangs.... His works are unique hybrids of sources, media, glosses on tradition and autobiographical notation." 

(As profiled by Saatchi Gallery at saatchi-gallery.co.uk) 

Sterling Ruby (American, born Germany, 1972) holds a BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and an MFA from the Art Center College of Design, Pasadena, California. Upcoming solo exhibitions include EXHM at Hauser & Wirth London, SOFT WORK at Museo d’Arte Contemporanea, Rome, and an exhibition at Kukje Gallery, Seoul.

WINTER 2013 VISITING ARTISTS AND LECTURES POSTER

WU TSANG/ WEDNESDAY 20 FEBRUARY / SCREENING W Q&A

WU TSANG

ID/NEW GENRES 

WILDNESS 

SCREENING+Q&A WITH DIRECTOR

7PM WEDNESDAY 20 FEBRUARY

.:.:POPCORN WILL BE SERVED.::.

Super special screening with UCLA MFA ID alumn Wu Tsang!  This widely acclaimed documentary has only screened a couple times in LA and is not in distribution!  HERE + NOW, PEOPLE! And it will be cool to watch it at Warner because Wu worked on this project while in our program.  

Rooted in the tropical underground of Los Angeles nightlife, WILDNESS is a documentary portrait of the Silver Platter, a historic bar in the MacArthur Park area that has been home for Latin/LBGT immigrant communities since 1963. With a magical-realist flourish, the bar itself becomes a character, narrating what happens when a group of young artists create a weekly performance art/dance party (organized by director Wu Tsang and DJs NGUZUNGUZU & Total Freedom) called Wildness, which explodes into creativity and conflict. What does “safe space” mean, and who needs it? And how does it differ among us? At the Silver Platter, the search for answers to these questions creates coalitions across generations.  Check the website below to watch the trailer and the blog for a great account of questions and struggles and triumphs that were wrestled with during the making and release of the video.

WU TSANG is a Los Angeles based artist and filmmaker. His artworks and performances have been presented at the 2012 Whitney Biennial and New Museum Triennial in New York, the ICA Philadelphia, MOCA Los Angeles, the Gwangju Biennial (South Korea) and upcoming at the Liverpool Biennial (UK). Tsang was named one of Filmmaker Magazine's “25 New Faces of Independent Film" in 2012. His first feature WILDNESS won the Grand Jury Award for Outstanding Documentary at Outfest 2012 [World Premiere: MoMA Documentary Fortnight (New York, NY), SXSW (Austin, TX), Hot Docs (Toronto, Canada), SANFIC8 (Santiago, Chile)]. He has received grants from Good Works, Frameline, Wexner Center for the Arts, IFP Labs, Art Matters, Tiffany Foundation, Frieze Foundation, and the Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.
