Retrospective: Douglas Chun – Full Circle March 8 – April 12

On March 8, Hui No‘eau celebrated the opening of Full Circle into Emptiness, a retrospective of beloved Maui Artist Douglas Chun’s work. The Retrospective Series was designed to acknowledge the contributions of individuals who have made a profound influence on local art and to share their work and ideas with the community. Hui No‘eau invites the community to continue celebrating the art and personal metamorphosis of Douglas Chun, an extraordinary artist and well-loved friend in the community. In the last two decades, Douglas and his wife Janet cultivated the gardens surrounding their home studio on the slopes of Haleakala. The beautiful natural environment inspired his abundant creativity. Douglas lived his life with simplicity, quiet intelligence, and the pursuit of harmony as well as inner joy. His art transitioned from realistic architectural illustrations to impressionistic watercolor landscapes to, eventually, large dramatic abstracts. This transformation was enriched by the precise practice of traditional Chinese calligraphy, which deeply informed his spiritual and artistic journey. Born and raised in China, Douglas attended Honolulu Art Academy and San Francisco Art Institute. A master in architectural illustration, his firm, Chun/Ishimaru, served the design profession for over 35 years throughout the West Coast. Douglas passed away in the summer of 2017.

Themed Juried Exhibition: Six-Word Memoirs

June 7 – July 26 Receiving Day: May 28 / 9:00 am – 4:00 pm Opening Reception: June 7 / 5:00 – 7:00 pm Legend has it that Ernest Hemingway was once challenged to write a story in only six words. His response? “For sale: baby shoes, never worn.” In November 2006, Larry Smith, founder of SMITH Magazine, gave the six-word novel a personal twist by asking his community to describe their lives in exactly six words. They sent in short life stories in droves, from the bittersweet (“Cursed with cancer, blessed with friends”) and poignant (“I still make coffee for two”) to the inspirational (“From migrant worker to NASA astronaut”) and hilarious (“Married by Elvis, divorced by Friday”). And the Six-Word Memoir project was born. Since then, Six-Word Memoir project has become a global phenomenon and a bestselling book series. Six-Word Memoirs have been featured in hundreds of media outlets from NPR to The New Yorker, covered on tens of thousands of blogs, and, as of Summer 2010, can be found inside 1 million Honest Tea bottle caps.

GRAFICA: AUWAHI with Artist in Residence Mazatl Open Daily / 9:00 am – 4:00 pm

In May & June 2018, Hui No‘eau Visual Arts Center presented GRAFICA: AUWAHI—a project in collaboration with 2018 Artist in Residence Mazatl, Visiting Artist Kill Joy, and the Auwahi Forest Restoration Project. Auwahi dry forest on southwest Haleakala is one of the last representatives of a nearly lost and biologically unique Hawaiian forest type. For many Hawaiian species, including several with great cultural importance, Auwahi appears to be their last stand. Mazatl is a graphic maker from Mexico City. His work includes largescale woodcuts in public areas as well as graphic murals. He is dedicated to collaborating with groups, collectives, artists, and movements that seek social, political, and environmental justice in local communities. Kill Joy is a printmaker who lives in Mexico City and is inspired by mythology, nature, and Memento Mori. Mahalo to the Laila Twigg-Smith Art Fund of Hawai‘i Community Foundation for their generous support in making this residency possible.

Hui No‘eau is thrilled to collaborate with Larry Smith to bring SixWord Memoirs to Maui, combining the written word with visual arts in this exciting and dynamic exhibition! Questions? Contact Exhibitions Manager Katie Peterson at katiep@huinoeau.com or (808) 572-6560 ext. 33.

Bryan

This class will explore a range of techniques for creating jewelry and small sculpture with sandcasting. Unlike other methods, sandcasting is fast (often requiring less than an hour from idea to completion) and because it does not result in the loss of the original wax model, it is ideal for creating multiples. Participants will learn all aspects of the process, from carving wax patterns and making sand molds, to casting metal and finishing their own unique pieces. Prerequisite: Some experience with jewelry and metals is recommended, but not required. Tuition: $165 ($207 nonmember) Supply Fee: $30 A supply list is posted online at huinoeau.com under the class description.

Urban Sketching

Session 1: Dot, Line, Texture, Sketch! Friday, 1 day June 14 / 9:00 am – 1:00 pm Session 2: Making your World Come Alive with Watercolor Saturday, 1 day June 15 / 9:00 am – 1:00 pm Urban sketching workshops will give you the necessary tools and techniques to develop a lifelong passion for drawing on location and telling stories using your sketches. Urban sketchers use simple portable tools and the power of direct observation to document their world, describe their experiences, capture city scenes, architecture, characters, and events in their sketchbooks. Standing on the cross-section of art, architecture, and journalism, urban sketching teaches students to become keen observers. Both workshops will cultivate the ability to draw quickly from direct observation, pulling inspiration from our surroundings, combining words and illustrations to create vivid, funny, and memorable snapshots of everyday life. During the first workshop, students will focus on achieving expressive, fluid, and confident ink lines to quickly portray subjects. During the second workshop, participants will work on bringing stories and characters to life with the help of watercolor. It is highly recommended that students take both sessions. Tuition: $65 ($82 nonmember) per session Register for both days and receive $10 off! A supply list is posted online at huinoeau.com under the class description.

This is the ultimate hand-building technique, which allows an intimacy and meditation with the clay since your hands are the primary tools. Jennifer will demonstrate shaping, embossing, texturing, adding narrative such as figures, multiple rims and feet, and finally glazing. The class is open to beginners as well as experienced potters. No wheel instruction will be given, but if students already know how to throw, they may use the wheel to facilitate larger and more quickly formed “pinch pots.” Tuition: $125 ($156 nonmember) Supply Fee: $20 / Lab Fee: $30 A supply list is posted online at huinoeau.com under the class description.

The Hui visits Wailuku town murals (and an old friend!)

Hui Board of Directors

In February 2019, a group of talented artists from Maui (and beyond!) painted murals throughout Wailuku and Central Maui in partnership with the PangeaSeed Foundation. While this massive mural project was underway, some of the Hui staff took a walk around Wailuku town in support of the project and to admire the artists’ work. Staff also stopped to visit the Hui’s 2012 Artist in Residence project, “Na Wai ‘Eha,” one of the first large-scale public murals on Maui, located on the corner of Market and Main Streets in Wailuku.

Shannon Hoekstra – President Sarah Bredhoff – Vice President Robert Rowland – Vice President Robert Stoner – Treasurer Joan Martin – Assistant Treasurer Colleen O’Shea Brady – Secretary Carolyn Schaefer Gray – Assistant Secretary Cheryl Tipton – Assistant Secretary Hunton Conrad – Assistant Secretary Diane Bevilacqua Keoki Freeland Jozette Montalvo Mercy Palmer Lisa Paulson Josh Stone Clay Sutherland Christy Vail Andrew Walker

Created in October 2012 by Artist in Residence Erik Okdeh in consultation and partnership with members of the community, “Na Wai ‘Eha” shares a vision of the four great waters flowing from the West Maui Mountains. Okdeh worked in the Hui studios to create his mural and mosaic before it was transferred in panels to Wailuku where he assembled the final work of art. Okdeh was one of two mural artists that the Hui brought to Maui in 2012 with support from the Laila Twigg-Smith Art Fund of the Hawai‘i Community Foundation. Artist in Residence Shira Walinsky’s mural is located on site at Hui No‘eau between the glass, jewelry, and ceramics studios. Both Okdeh and Walinsky shared invaluable knowledge about community projects and murals with the Hui, calling upon their experiences living in Philadelphia, the “city of murals,” and working with the renowned City of Philadelphia Mural Arts Program. As a longtime supporter of public art, Hui No‘eau is thrilled to see murals popping up all over Maui. Public art influences how we connect with places and people, provides an opportunity for conversation, and encourages greater understanding of other cultures and perspectives. Congratulations to all the participating artists for helping to make our communities more vibrant places to live, work, and play!

art of giving

“Art community is vibrant & healthy” with support from Hui No‘eau according to 2019 Art Maui Juror The Hui is a thriving center for arts education, supporting art and artists all across Maui, Hawai‘i, and beyond. Every year, the Hui welcomes more than 600 artists to enter up to 8 exhibitions in our historic gallery, which is open daily for locals and visitors to explore and enjoy. The Hui also provides year-round support for artists and creative thinkers at every stage of their creative journey, whether they are taking an art class for the first time or are an art professional. Together, Hui students and teaching artists create the heart of the Hui, a vibrant center of creativity on Maui unlike anywhere else on the island. At the Hui, our focus is arts education through hands-on learning in professionally equipped studios. Many of the facilities, tools, and equipment available at the Hui would cost well beyond the budget of an artist with a home studio. The studios at the Hui provide vital resources for learning and continued creative growth. Beyond the Hui, our students and teachers share their vision and talents with the entire Maui community. Our Hui family of artists have their own creative businesses, sell their work in boutiques and galleries, create public art, and contribute to exhibitions at other institutions. 2019 Art Maui Juror Lisa A. Yoshihara recognized the value of Hui No‘eau in an article published March 3 in the Maui News.

“It was very rewarding to see new artists during the jury process. It is a sign that the art community is vibrant and healthy. The strength of certain media like printmaking and jewelry making came through strong, which is a testament to having an art center like the Hui No’eau [Visual Arts Center in Makawao] that provides essential facilities, instruction and synergy, a place to learn, share, create and collaborate.”

To ensure enrollment in a class, we recommend registering at least one week prior to the start date of class. We require seven days notice to issue a refund or class credit less a $25 processing fee. Memberships are non-refundable. If the person registering has a disability and needs accommodation to be able to fully participate in a class, the Hui should be alerted at the time of registration (at least one week in advance of class start date) to discuss any accommodations needed.
