DAZZLING BEADWORK IN COLORFUL COMBINATIONS

Zondlile Zondo, I am ill, I still see Color and Beauty: Jamludi The Red Cow, 2012, glass beads sewn onto fabric

The Society of the Four Arts brings brightness and color to Palm Beach this fall with the art exhibition, Ubuhle Women, Beadwork and the Art of Independence, opening on November 14.

This exhibition showcases a new form of bead art, the ndwango, developed by a community of women living and working in rural South Africa.

“I was attracted to this exhibition because of how bright and colorful the artwork is,” said Rebecca A. Dunham, The Four Arts’ head of fine arts and curator. “Then after I Iearned about the process involved in making these vibrant pieces, I developed huge respect and admiration for the artists and their craftsmanship.”

Organized by the New-York Historical Society in collaboration with Mr. Rubenstein’s library consultant, In God We Trust presents the stories of these books and printed documents and the ingenuity and diversity of the early Americans who made them.

— Continued from Page 1 The five artists featured in the exhibition call their paintings in beads ndwangos, which translates as “cloth” or “rag.” The black fabric on which the Ubuhle women work is reminiscent of the Xhosa headscarves and skirts which many of them grew up wearing. By stretching this textile like a canvas, the artists transform the flat cloth into a contemporary art form colored with Czech glass beads.

“At first glance they may look like paintings or some type of collage from far away,” Dunham said, “and then when you get close up, you realize they are composed of all these tiny beads and every single tiny bead has been hand-sewn onto black cloth. Some people may think these beads are glued onto the canvas, but that is not the case.”

Ubuhle means “beauty” in the Xhosa and Zulu languages and it describes the shimmering quality of light on glass that for the Xhosa people has a particular spiritual significance. Using skills handed down through generations, and working in their own unique style “directly from the soul,” according to artist Ntombephi Ntobela, the women create abstract as well as figurative subjects for their ndwangos.

“Some of these artworks can take over a year to make,” Dunham said. “The materials themselves are amazing — tiny, tiny little beads — and then you add in the hand-sewing and working with a lot of bold color, it all makes for an exciting show that should energize audiences.”

Ubuhle Women consists of 31 artworks along with black and white photos of the five artists featured in the show. The exhibition is accompanied by a video and a free souvenir Gallery Guide created by the Smithsonian Anacostia Community Museum in Washington, DC. Visitors can also take a selfguided tour, featuring high-resolution images and audio provided by Dunham, on their smartphones by clicking on fourarts.oncell.com.

Stunning Restorations Visitors to the Philip Hulitar Sculpture Garden and Four Arts Mall will notice restorations to two of our signature sculptures, King Parrot by Jim Dine and Intetra by Isamu Noguchi.

Alan Solomon wrote of Jim Dine, whom he had included among ‘Four Younger Artists’ in his sensational U.S. Pavilion at the Venice Biennale in 1964, that “Although he is often counted among the Pop Artists, Dine’s work really relates to that of no other artist.

Starting from a point of view close to Rauschenberg and Johns, he had evolved toward a highly personal mode of expression.”

Dine, painter, sculptor and print maker, was born in Cincinatti, Ohio on June 16, 1935. The motif of the heart in Dine’s work goes back at least to 1966, and to his earliest major sculpture, Nancy and I at Ithaca (Straw Heart), when Dine was teaching at Cornell University. Nancy Minto (d. 2020) was his wife and it has been said that his hearts are “touching and powerful, full of joy and affection.” This is poignant, given that Mary Tremaine Hildt’s gift commemorates her late son.

The parrot is actually a scarlet macaw from the Amazon, where it has been associated by Indians with the transmigration of souls (a ‘psychopomp’ is a carrier of souls). In 1966 the Arte Povera artist Jannis Kounellis placed a live macaw before a sheet of metal to construct the metaphor of art reflecting and mimicking (‘parroting’) reality. The macaw gives us a sense of aspiration and of the joy of color expressed in paint. The work’s paint had faded in recent years, so The Four Arts arranged for Dine to oversee the restoration work and approved the final product, which returns King Parrot to its original, dramatic bright colors.

Intetra has graced the Intracoastal Waterway at The Four Arts since 1976.

Over years of exposure to the weather, the clear linear patterns, lines, and details buffed into the sculpture had faded away.

They have now been restored, with the conservator adding a layer of sealant to protect it against the elements.

Fall 2020 Folio

An amazing addition to the Philip Hulitar Sculpture Garden when installed during the summer, contemporary American artist Philip Haas’ The Four Seasons (2010) exhibition will end its run at The Four Arts on December 31.

Photos by ELVIO SALAZAR

Don’t miss The Four Seasons

The group of painted fiberglass sculptures are inspired by the portrait series by Italian Mannerist Giuseppe Arcimboldo (1526/1527– 1593). As in Arcimboldo’s whimsical paintings, the physical features of the four figures are rendered in floral, fruit and vegetables appropriate to each season.

Arcimboldo, the court portraitist to the Habsburg Imperial Courts in Vienna and Prague for 25 years, painted The Four Seasons in 1563 and presented them to Maximilian II on New Year’s Day, 1569.

Hailed for their wit and artifice, the paintings were popular at court and solidified his reputation as the most modern painter of his time.

Philip Haas, Autumn, 2010, painted fiberglass, on loan from the artist

Haas’s interpretations made in 2010 of Arcimboldo’s eccentric yet scientifically accurate composite heads are puzzles crafted with flowers, ivy, moss, fungi, vegetables, fruit, trees, bark, branches, and twigs. The ‘theater’ of the Pannill Pavilion provides the

Philip Haas The Four Seasons ON DISPLAY Through Thursday, December 31 Pannill Pavilion inside the Philip Hulitar Sculpture Garden

perfect ‘stage set’ for the sculptures. Their reconfigurations of the human head delight visitors of all ages. Haas’s sculptures also offer a revelatory viewing experience: he recreates two-dimensional paintings as three-dimensional forms, allowing viewers to walk around them and witness nature’s rhythmic cycles from different vantage points.

The Four Seasons is on loan to The Society of the Four Arts from the artist. The exhibition of The Four Seasons is made possible by the generosity of Alice (Kit) Pannill.

New additions

Artist Unknown, Franco-Flemish, active mid to late 19th-century Pair of Putti with a Dolphin, ca. 1875– 1900, Lead Gift of Mr. and Mrs. Henry W. Breyer Collection of The Society of the Four Arts, 2014.1 2019.3

Flanking the Rogers Fountain next to Royal Palm Way and near the sculpture of Neptune, visitors to the sculpture garden will find a new pair of lead sculptures.

These whimsical ornaments depict pairs of putti riding on fantastical sea creatures.

Putti are representations of chubby, nude male children, often with wings, that frequently appear in mythological and religious paintings and sculptures.

Cast in lead, a heavy metal that is dense but also soft and malleable, they are based on sculptures decorating the Jardins d’Annevoie in Namur, Belgium.

The sculpture on the right is a direct copy of a fountain in the water gardens, the source of which is the River Rouillon.

CAMPUS ON THE LAKE Reservations or tickets are required for all programs

The Four Arts app ■ www.fourarts.org ■ campus@fourarts.org ■ (561) 805-8562

THE ART OF LIVING WELL The Society of the Four Arts proudly presents programs from its Campus on the Lake department guaranteed to enrich and elevate your daily existence.

The master class, “Conversations on Style” with Steven Stolman, premieres on December 2.

Stolman is a designer and writer best known to Palm Beachers as the creator of the eponymous resortwear brand that, during its existence, featured a shop on Worth Avenue. For a little more than a decade, his label graced the wardrobes of stylish women and men alike, and was considered part and parcel to the Palm Beach look. Stolman has been a frequent presenter at The Four Arts, beginning with his appearance as Addison Mizner in “The Palm Beach Follies.” His engaging book talks and signings have delighted Four Arts audiences over the years.

“He is amusing, funny, and witty — a show in and of himself,” said Sofia Vollmer Maduro, The Four Arts’ director of programs. “We have the perfect presenter to lead a series of casual interviews on style.”

Stolman’s first book, Scalamandré: Haute Décor, featured tales from his three years as President of the home furnishing band, leading a broad expansion of products.

Dr. Morton received his Master’s degree from Rutgers University in 1991 and his Ph.D. at the University of South Carolina in 1995. The author of three books, numerous journal articles and book chapters, Professor Morton has published on issues ranging from the legality of interventions and weapons of war to the United Nations, Israeli security and U.S. foreign policy, and has lectured nationally on matters relating to U.S. foreign policy.

INSIDE THE FOUR ARTS Philip Rylands, Ph.D. Origins of Modernism in Art

Legendary Film Directors, with Bill David Thursdays from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. $100 for series or $35 per class

Mondays at 11:30 a.m $25 per lecture

January 4: Cubism February 8: Futurism March 1: Abstraction

In the five years leading up to World War I, diverse groups of artists laid the foundations for the twentieth-century avant-garde.

Three lectures will specifically deal with the origins and meanings of French Cubism, Italian Futurism and European abstraction, and with artists such as Picasso, Braque, Boccioni, Balla, Kupka, Kandinsky and Mondrian. Their revolution overturned a tradition 500 years long of “realism” (greater or less) in European art. The course concludes with Jackson Pollock, whose “Abstract Expressionism” made him not only the most renowned American painter of the 20th century but signaled the end of the abstract tradition that had begun with the pre-World War I avant-garde.

Philip Rylands is an art historian who for more than 37 years was responsible for the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice, immediately following the death of its founder. In 1986, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation purchased the U.S. Pavilion of the Venice Biennale, which has been operated by the Peggy Guggenheim Collection with the US Department of State since 1985. Dr. Rylands is President of the Society of the Four Arts.

COMING THIS WINTER Charles and Jackson Pollock January 30 through March 28, 2021

Enjoy the first exhibition featuring both Jackson Pollock, famously central to the development of Abstract Expressionism, the first American avant-garde, and his eldest brother Charles. In addition to approximately 70 paintings and works on paper by ‘Pollock the Elder’, the exhibition presents a small, even intimate selection of works revealing a Jackson Pollock little known to the general public: paintings, drawings including one of only two surviving notebooks of the 1950s (only once shown in public before), his sole surviving sculpture, virtually his entire production of prints, and a pair of low four-legged, paint-spattered stools from his studio.
