1. Jacquelyn Schiffman, FF Alumn, at Figureworks, Jan 31-Mar. 2nd, 2003

Jacquelyn Schiffman
Sitting on Air
January 31 – March 2, 2003
Reception – Sunday Afternoon, February 2nd, 4-7 PM
at Figureworks

(1 block south from Bedford Avenue “L” train, between Bedford Ave./ Driggs Ave.)

Friday – Monday 1-6 PM or by appointment

Figureworks is pleased to be hosting a striking and unusual new body of work by Jacquelyn Schiffman. This new series of figurative work is done predominately in wax and acrylic on a semi-transparent, polyester, spun-web “canvas”. Using paint and wax on this spunbond material, in an encaustic approach, Ms. Schiffman has produced stunning results. The figures take on an abstracted, dream-like quality, not only due to the artist’s hand, but also by the magic of the material itself.

Ms. Schiffman entitled this show Sitting on Air. She says “Sitting on air is tricky, you don’t know if you’re about to fly or to fall down.” Her figurative imagery is based on real people, some famous, some familial, some models. These introspective figures carry a mystical quality and it is intriguingly difficult to determine if they are elated enough to take flight or perhaps just slump and drop from sight.

Regarding her materials, spunbound technology has been around since the mid-l960s for use in the automotive, construction and medical fields. As an art source, spunbonds are remarkable for their transparent, sensual and archival qualities. To further assist in appreciating this unique material, most of this work is mounted top and bottom on transparent, hollow acrylic rods. Hanging like scrolls allows light through the piece and in many cases, exposure to the back of this work is as intriguing as the face.

Ms. Schiffman received her BA from the University of Michigan and her MS from Southern Connecticut University. She has studied in Paris at the Academie de la Grande Chaumiere and Academie de Notre Dame des Champs and in the NY at Hunter College, the New School, and the Art Students’ League. She has received numerous awards for her work including an individual grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. She has also studied in Connecticut as the studio of Gerald Garston and the Studio of Madeline Sharrer. She is influenced by the poupees of Marta Kuhn Weber and Greer Lankton and the collages of Hannelore Baron.

8. Hannah Higgins, FF Alumn, Fluxus book launch party at Printed Matter, Feb 20, 2003.

Book Launch for Hannah Higgins’
Fluxus Experience
at Printed Matter, Inc., New York, NY
Thursday, February 20, 2003, 5 to 7 PM

Printed Matter is very pleased to announce a book launch for Hannah Higgins’ Fluxus Experience, to take place at Printed Matter, Inc., on Thursday, February 20, 2003, from 5 to 7 PM. The author will be present to sign copies of her book. Printed Matter, Inc. is located at 535 West 22nd Street, between 10th and 11th Avenues.

In her groundbreaking work of incisive scholarship and analysis, Hannah Higgins explores the influential art movement Fluxus. Daring, disparate, and contentious, Fluxus artists worked with minimal and prosaic materials to create experiences Higgins describes as affirming transactions between self and world – even when they took the form (as they often did) of assaults upon the senses. Fluxus objects and performances were characterized by expansive gestures based in scientific, philosophical, sociological, or other extra-artistic ideas all “leavened with burlesque,” as Peter Frank puts it, with the goal of changing political, social, and aesthetic perception. Higgins sees valuable pedagogical lessons to be learned from the methods and madness of Fluxus art, and she presents these as the culmination of her art historical research.

Fluxus began in the 1950s with artists from around the world who favored no single style or medium but displayed an inclination to experiment. It has endured not so much as a movement but as a sensibility – a way of fusing certain radical social attitudes with ever-evolving aesthetic practices. Two formats are unique to Fluxus: a type of performance art called the Event, and the Fluxkit multiple, a collection of everyday objects or inexpensive printed cards collected in a box that viewers explore privately. Higgins examines these two setups to bring to life the Fluxus experience, how it works, and how and why it’s important.

Printed Matter is delighted to host the chronicler of a movement we have long championed. Printed Matter carries many early Fluxus titles as well as work being done today in the name and spirit of Fluxus. An Associate Professor in the Department of Art History at the University of Illinois, Chicago, Hannah Higgins is also the daughter of Fluxus artists Alison Knowles and Dick Higgins. In Fluxus Experience, she makes the most of her personal connection to the movement by sharing her firsthand experience, bringing an astounding immediacy to her writing and a palpable commitment to shedding light on what Fluxus is and why it matters.

Fluxus Experience is published by University of California Press, 274 pages, 6 x 8 inches, 57 black-and-white photographs, ISBN: 0-520-22867-7, and is priced at $22.95. Fluxus Experience, and over 15,000 other artists’ books are available from Printed Matter’s website: www.printedmatter.org

Printed Matter is located at 535 West 22nd Street, between 10th and 11th Avenue, in New York’s Chelsea district.

10. Doug Beube, FF Alumn, at Limn Gallery, San Francisco, thru March 7, 2003

LIMN Gallery
290 Townsend St
San Francisco, CA 94107
415-977-1300
gallery@limn.com
Jan 11th-March 7th 2003
Thurs-Sat. 11:00-5:30PM
or by appointment

LIMN Gallery is pleased to present a solo exhibition of altered books by New York artist Doug Beube. The works were created between 1992 and 2002 and represent the rich and varied ways in which the artist approaches the book as subject / object. When Beube appropriates these books, their words are sometimes available, their shapes are sometimes recognizable, but in every case they are transformed into poetic objects that speak volumes. Deciphering their secrets requires numerous readings. Doug Beube slices, folds, burns, twists, layers and reconfigures found texts. At times Beube has something political in mind and at other times he works more intuitively finding formal relationships between colors, shapes and text. Douglas Beube has exhibited nationally and internationally and is represented in the collections of the Brooklyn Museum, Franklin Furnace, MOMA, Walker Art Center, Dartmouth College, York University and countless others. Beube is the curator of “The Book Under Pressure”, a private rotating exhibition of nearly 200 artist altered bookworks for New York collector Allan Chasanoff which began in 1993. Beube teaches artists books, mixed media, and photography and lectures at various universities and art programs around the country.
