HILBERT MUSEUM Spotlights Bay Area Scene Paintings

C

“California Scene Painting” is a term for paintings, both in oil and watercolor, that capture the spirit of the Golden State in the 20th century by visually depicting narratives of people’s everyday lives. Creative, beautiful, ever-changing San Francisco and its Bay Area became hotbeds of the Scene Painting movement. On view now at the Hilbert Museum of California Art at Chapman University in Orange, “Bay Area Scene Paintings,” curated by Gordon McClelland and on view through April 27, is a visual treasure trove of these works, the largest exhibition of Scene paintings from Northern California ever assembled.

HILBERT MUSEUM Bay Area Scene Paintings

View of Alcatraz by Ken Potter (1926-2011), 1960s watercolor, The Hilbert Collection

The show features more than 40 paintings by acclaimed California artists, including Ken Potter, Hubert Buel, George Post, Dong Kingman, Maurice Logan, Lee Blair, Jade Fon, Suong Yangchareon, Louis Hughes, Erle Loran, Jack Laycox, Lamartine Le Goullon and many more. About half the works in the exhibition are on loan from private collectors; the rest are drawn from the Hilbert Permanent Collection.

The “golden era” of Bay Area Scene painting took place roughly between 1930 and 1960, a time when the look and feel of old San Francisco and the surrounding area gradually changed as the urban area grew, redevelopment projects were implemented, and neighborhoods evolved and transformed.

Countercultures – the Beat movement, and later the hippie movement -- grew and flourished in the Bay Area as alternative subcurrents to “established” society.

Chronologically, the show begins with an unknown artist from the 1870s offering an image of Kelly’s Beach and the landmark Cliff House, with people wandering up the hill to enjoy the view.

Other subjects of the show’s paintings range from the well-known tourist views

of San Francisco – the bridges, cable cars, and Victorian houses – to images of the city shimmering through its omnipresent fog and rain, to gritty images of life on the back streets. While Ralph Hulett paints a view from above of the city on a crystalline blue day, Jade Fon takes viewers behind the scenes to a shadowy alley where street people warm themselves around small fires, and Lamartine Le Goullon and Dong Kingman portray the syncopated colors and forms of the Beat culture.

Also on view at the Hilbert Museum: “California Masters: Modern Realist Works from the Hilbert Collection” (through April 27). Opening January 25: “Sincerely, Norman Rockwell: Celebrating a New Acquisition” and “The Magic and Flair of Mary Blair” (both through October 19). Admission to the Hilbert Museum is free. Hours are Tuesday-Saturday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Hilbert Museum of California Art is located at 167 N. Atchison Street in Orange, California, across from the Orange train station.

Kitsch-In-Sync Art and Its Opposite Jan 26 - March 21st Coastline Community College, Newport

Kitsch

Is What Connects Us

by Suzanne Walsh

Memory One

Kristine Schomaker

In the mid-nineties, growing up in suburban Orange County, my friends and I were on the constant prowl for realism. Our ravenous fingers would flip through the smooth spines of records, part racks of musty vintage to reveal the perfect "hideous" wide-collared button up with a wallpaper pattern, then with bags tied to the handlebars of our bikes we would kick off to the next retail establishment. That vinyl record in the thin plastic bag already tearing at the corners, tied to my handlebars, as I awkwardly peddled down the street under a Technicolor pink and blue painted sunset sky is the essence of kitsch. To this day my heart pulls at the sight of a plastic bag that has THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU printed in red letters down the front. And what I purchased back in those days are some of my most prized possessions, seeped in memory and meaning that will summon an emotion more deeply felt than any other objects I come across in this world.

Regina Jacobson

The intersection of memory and retail is the very heart of what kitsch is. Kitsch is not one thing, as this exhibition will prove. Although not having seen all the work in place, I can predict that the majority of the creativity on display will be a personal account by the artist of three things in particular: memory, beauty and commercial appeal. You cannot have kitsch without the specter of commercial success, either a haunting of its overarching presence or a haunting of its crippling absence. In the case of Margaret Keane, her story is marked by her husband, taking her paintings as his own and finding tremendous popularity with them before she is able to defiantly step away from his thievery and dominance to take credit for her own work, moreover her own commercial success. There is a reason why Keane's work resonates so deeply with an audience. The eyes of her subjects, giant and strikingly void of a particular emotion, allow the viewer to engage in a dialogue with their inner selves. It is a private conversation that triggers a need that will almost always translate into wanting to take an object home and keep it safe. To purchase a work of kitsch is a nurturing inclination. We want to "save" the image by possessing it, placing it upon our own curated altar. To be human is to collect and to curate. To be human is to cherish and remember through objects.

Memory Two The first time I encountered Thomas Kinkade was in plate form. A friend of mine in high school, who fancied himself a deeply knowledgeable follower of the dark arts, lived in a house in a neighborhood near Peter's Canyon where the houses were at that time beginning to be built larger and with broader swathes of pink stucco. His mother collected limited edition Thomas Kinkade plates, the kind with the gold rim that you could purchase from the back of the Reader's Digest. The way she had them arranged, over the mantelpiece in their living room, in clusters on either side of the exposed brick fireplace, was strikingly quant and beautiful. Each little bird’s eye view of a far off village at dusk, or a solitary cottage surrounded by an autumnal forest would hold my weary, charred teenage heart and restore it, if only for a moment, with the power of a lovingly read bedtime story. I felt a deeper kinship to my friend's mother through her cherished plates than I did to my friend. Her kitsch resonated with me in a way I couldn't, at that time in my life, admit to. I am convinced from that experience and many that came after that those who put down others for their kitsch are experiencing a similar kind of secret love and feel inclined to express the opposite to mask it.

We are often startled by the nakedness of kitsch, how it asks us to love beauty through the lens of personal perception not a widely held or academic understanding.

The very nuance of kitsch becomes its mass appeal. As

FEATURE

F. Scott Hess

we proceed through life and begin to trust and love our own experiences the kitsch comes pouring in.

What is life in America but a doggy paddle towards beauty in a sea of capitalistic sentiment? I for one am choosing to embrace it early but that too is something I share with my generation, a group of "suburban" brats growing up on the edge of the internet with no idea what was about to hit mankind. We now live in a world of kitsch and the feelings qualifying objects would inspire can be acquired with a Google search.

We collect images in piles on our social media platforms, cyber homesteads we have built for our hearts, permanently residing at the cross roads of beauty and commerce. If it is not beautiful it is not worth having or at the least not worth mentioning. As the individual becomes less and less inclined to hide behind performativity we will need kitsch more than ever to identify

each other as aligning with our values. Our friends will look to each other's ideas of beauty and nostalgia as the foundation for connectivity and communal warmth. Grab your ugly Christmas sweater and your easy listening records, its about to get beautifully ugly. ∞ Kitsch-In-Sync, curated by Bradford J. Salamon, opens Sat., Jan 26th, 6 - 9 pm. and features a strong cast of nearly 50 talented artists, including: Ashley Bravin, Frank Dixon, Tom Dowling, Michael Flechtner, Regina Jacobson, Laurie Hasshold, Mark Kostabi, David Michael Lee, Bradford J.

HAMMER MUSEUM Allen Ruppersberg: Intellectual Property 1968-2018 this major retrospective on the work of conceptual artist allen ruppersberg (b. 1944, cleveland) marks the artist’s first comprehensive us survey in over 30 years. many of the works included, from private and public collections in europe and elsewhere, have never before been exhibited in us museums. ruppersberg moved to los angeles in the mid1960s with the goal of becoming an illustrator, but soon became active in an emerging scene led by artists such as John Baldessari, ed ruscha, william leavitt, and others exploring the interface of language and image filtered through the lens of mass culture. his early projects—including environments made with found objects; wry, narrative photo works; and a novel copied by hand—began a career-long practice of creating works that prompt both reading and looking, and that intertwine fact with fiction. since those early years, ruppersberg has actively worked between los angeles, new york, and europe. wide ranging in approach, his work is unified by his regular use of american vernacular culture—including books, posters, newspapers and magazines, records, old films, and other vintage items—which he draws from his vast collections source material. Featuring more than 120 works made over the past 50 years, the exhibition includes the artist’s photo works combining text and image, early assemblage sculptures, and his

MERCURY FA L L I N G

by

DUBIN A Five Story Stainless Steel Sculptural Landmark Touches Down in Irvine At the request of Sanderson J. Ray, LLC, artist Jorg Dubin began development of a landmark sculpture project two and a half years ago for a development in Irvine, CA. The project is called, “SKYLOFT” and is on the cor-

ner of Jamboree and Main Street. The owners wanted the architecture and the sculpture to be something very different then what is typically being built around the city. 25 plus different concept images were presented before the owners signed of on the project and it was underway.

The idea behind the piece was to bring an organic form juxtaposed against the angular nature of the architecture. Dubin also wanted the title of the piece as well as it’s visual presence to speak to hope for the environment, reflecting nature and the idea that with human guidance, global temperatures would again begin to decline, hence, “MERCURY FALLING”.

Dubin chose a material that would reflect its surroundings and evoke sense of nature and fluidity. The sculpture was hand formed out of marine grade stainless steel then hand polished to a mirror finish. The scale of the sculpture was something that was debated in the early design stages and it was decided that if the intent was to create a landmark piece, then it should be “big”! The final piece is five stories tall roughly 60 feet. It is a representation of mercury pooling on the roof then spilling over the top and streaming to the ground hitting it with a large “splash”.

“Mercury Falling” is scheduled for installation in later January 2019. www.jorgdubin.com

Upon a Painted Ocean An Ode to the California Coast Nov. 10, 2018 - March 30, 2019

Guy Rose Point Lobos

Our tribute to the California Coast is entitled UPON A PAINTED OCEAN, in reference to Samuel Taylor Coleridgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s epic poem about the sea, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, published in 1798.

It reads, in part:

On display are important historical works by Rex Brandt, Frank Cuprien, Granville Redmond, Edgar Payne, Ruth Peabody, Arthur Rider, William Ritschel, Donna Schuster, George Gardner Symons, Elmer Wachtel, and William Wendt.

Day after day, day after day, we stuck, nor breath nor motion; As idle as a painted ship upon a painted ocean.

Water, water, everywhere, and all the boards did shrink; Water, water, everywhere, nor any drop to drink.

The Irvine Museum Collection at the University of California, Irvine 18881 Von Karman Ave, Ground Floor Irvine, CA 92612

Contrary to the tragic theme of the poem, our exhibition celebrates the splendor of our sun-filled coast. To that end, UPON A PAINTED OCEAN features works by important historical artists as well as by contemporary painters.

Norman Rockwell:

A BRIEF BIOGRAPHY From the Norman Rockwell Museum

his first commercial commissions. From Bridgman, Rockwell learned the technical skills on which he relied throughout his long career.

Rockwell found success early. He painted his first commission of four Christmas cards before his sixteenth birthday. While still in his teens, he was hired as art director of Boys’ Life, the official publication of the Boy Scouts of America, and began a successful freelance career illustrating a variety of young people’s publications.

Norman Rockwell in his Studio

B

Born in New York City in 1894, Norman Rockwell always wanted to be an artist. At age 14, Rockwell enrolled in art classes at The New York School of Art (formerly The Chase School of Art). Two years later, in 1910, he left high school to study art at The National Academy of Design. He soon transferred to The Art Students League, where he studied with Thomas Fogarty and George Bridgman. Fogarty’s instruction in illustration prepared Rockwell for

At age 21, Rockwell’s family moved to New Rochelle, New York, a community whose residents included such famous illustrators as J.C. and Frank Leyendecker and Howard Chandler Christy. There, Rockwell set up a studio with the cartoonist Clyde Forsythe and produced work for such magazines as Life, Literary Digest, and Country Gentleman. In 1916, the 22-year-old Rockwell painted his first cover for The Saturday Evening Post, the magazine considered by Rockwell to be the “greatest show window in America.”

Over the next 47 years, another 321 Rockwell covers would appear on the cover of the Post. Also in 1916, Rockwell married Irene O’Connor; they divorced in 1930.

The 1930s and 1940s are generally considered to be the most fruitful decades of Rockwell’s career. In 1930 he married Mary Barstow, a schoolteacher, and the couple had three sons, Jarvis, Thomas, and Peter. The family moved to Arlington, Vermont, in 1939, and Rockwell’s work began to reflect small-town American life.

Artist Facing Blank Canvas, 1938, Norman Rockwell

In 1943, inspired by President Franklin Roosevelt’s address to Congress, Rockwell painted the Four Freedoms paintings. They were reproduced in four consecutive issues of The Saturday Evening Post with essays by contemporary writers.

Rockwell’s interpretations of Freedom of Speech, Freedom to Worship, Freedom from Want, and Freedom from Fear proved to be enormously popular. The works toured the United States in an exhibition that was jointly sponsored by the Post and the U.S. Treasury Department and, through the sale of war bonds, raised more than $130 million for the war effort.

Although the Four Freedoms series was a great success, 1943 also brought Rockwell an enormous loss. A fire destroyed his Arlington studio as well as numerous paintings and his collection of historical costumes and props.

In 1953, the Rockwell family moved from Arlington, Vermont, to Stockbridge, Massachusetts.

Six years later, Mary Barstow Rockwell died unexpectedly. In collaboration with his son Thomas, Rockwell published his autobiography, My Adventures as an Illustrator, in 1960. The Saturday Evening Post carried excerpts from the best-selling book in eight consecutive issues, with Rockwell’s Triple Self-Portrait on the cover of the first.

In 1961, Rockwell married Molly Punderson, a retired teacher. Two years later, he ended his 47year association with The Saturday Evening Post and began to work for Look magazine. During his 10-year association with Look, Rockwell painted pictures illustrating some of his deepest concerns and interests, including civil rights, America’s war on poverty, and the exploration of space. continued on pg. 62

After the Prom, Saturday Evening Post, 1957, Norman Rockwell

In 1973, Rockwell established a trust to preserve his artistic legacy by placing his works in the custodianship of the Old Corner House Stockbridge Historical Society, later to become Norman Rockwell Museum at Stockbridge. The trust now forms the core of the Museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s permanent collections. In 1976, in failing health, Rockwell became concerned about the future of his studio. He arranged to have his studio and its contents added to the trust. In 1977, Rockwell received the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s highest civilFreedom of Speech, 1943, Norman Rockwell

In 2008, Rockwell was named the official state artist of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, thanks to a dedicated effort from students in Berkshire County, where Rockwell lived for the last 25 years of his life www.nrm.org
