Lanny Bergner Q. When did you first realize you were an artist A. I knew that I wanted to be an artist in 1971, which was my senior year of high school. It took many more years before I thought I actually was an artist. That probably didn’t happen until right after graduate school in 1984 when I began exhibiting my work on a regular basis Q. Description of your art? A. I always find it difficult to describe my art or to even characterize its place in the art world. I mainly work with metal, yet I exhibit mostly in the fiber world. I make metal mesh basketry works, but I also create site-specific installations and do public art. I think like a sculptor when it comes to working with concepts, form and space, but I also create well-crafted handmade objects that lend themselves to the world of fine-craft. My work’s imagery is naAbove: Lanny Bergner Left: Silent Reflection, 52” x 50” oil and collage on canvas
ture based, but sometimes the work contains a bit of human objectification along with a dash of spirituality. I also do other work that is almost exclusively about pattern and design. It is all serious work, but nothing should be taken to seriously. Q. Current Medium. A. My primary medium for the past year has been stainless steel mesh, which I draw upon using a propane or butane torch. I also use glass frit, silicone and wire and in some cases I combine all these materials in the making of a piece. Q. Previous Medium. A. I have worked with many materials over the span of my career, but metal mesh (stainless steel, aluminum, brass and bronze mesh) has been the dominant material
7
over all those years. I gravitate toward common materials that I can use in an uncommon way. Some of the other materials I have worked with have been broken auto glass, sand, coal, slag, carpet tacks, straight pins, safety pins, hydrocal, sandblasting grit, monofilament, fishhooks and even traditional sculpture materials such as wood and stone. Q. Do you have a favorite Subject Matter? A. The natural world is my favorite subject matter, especially the patterns and structures found in nature. I have an interest in microbial life and a growing fascination in geologic formations. I also have an interest in cosmology, vessel forms, architecture and pattern design. I like to abstractly suggest the human form in my work, and in my current studio projects I am using the vessel shape as a substitute for the human figure. Q. Have you been Influenced by what artist and how? A. I have to go back a long ways to answer that question. Back when I was in high school I had an English teacher, Anne McCracken, whose husband was a sculptor. I wasn’t a good English student, but she recognized my artistic talent and introduced me to her husband. His name was Philip McCracken and in 1976 I worked as his assistant for five months before going on to college. He taught me a lot about the craft of making sculpture and exposed me to the spiritual side of art making (finding the spirit within an object). He also gave me insight into the workings of a professional artist. To this day he is still the artist who has influenced me the most.
Q. What inspires and motivates you? A. Inspiration: My primary sources of outside inspiration come from the natural world. In particular, I am finding the book “Art Forms from the Ocean” the monographs of 19th century naturalist, by Ernst Haeckel very inspiring. His book has been a jumping off point for my latest body of work called “Primordial Muse”. In this series I am drawing on stainless steel mesh using a propane/butane torch and the imagery is derived from the Haeckel monographs. I am also turning my attention to tafoni rock formations; these are eroded rock cavities prominent in shoreline regions of the Gulf Island of British Columbia. I hope to develop a new body of work using observations gleamed from visiting tafoni sites to inspire torch burn drawings on stainless steel vessel forms. A lot of my work is just inspired by the series of works that I am working on, with one piece leading to the next. Motivation: I am a compulsive maker who has to be working with my hands. That is the way I explore the mysteries of the world, the way I function in it and the way I find equilibrium with it. I am not a religious person, but for me art making is a meditative activity and in that sense it gives me a certain spiritual base. Q. How has your work changed as you developed as an artist? A. My knowledge about materials and my technical expertise has increased over the years. I also have a much better understanding about the strengths and limitations of the materials that I use. I basically use the same method of joining mesh that I developed during my final year of graduate school in 1983. The difference is the craftsmanship, which took me many years to refine. I am now using more imagery in my work with the torch drawing on mesh. This a relatively new phase in my artistic development. Q. What interests do you have besides? A. I like to garden. I own a garden property that my parents used to garden back in the early 70s. I have been growing veggies and fruit there since 1994. Running and music are other interests that I have. Q. Studio Space where is it and describe your studio what is it like A. I have two studio. One is the small studio, which is the size of a one-car garage. It is connected to the house. I go out my front door, turn left and enter the studio. This is where I do most of my work, especially during the fall and winter months. My other studio is a 20 x 30’ out building about 100 feet from the house, which I
8

10
had constructed about three years ago. The building isn’t heated so it is mostly used for storage, photography, crate building, cutting mesh and doing torch burning on mesh. Both of the studios are very utilitarian and they are not really set up as inspirational spaces. They are cluttered and not very well organized. When I am in my studio I am interested in the piece I am doing and not the space that I am doing it in. That said, I cannot think of a place I would rather be. Q. Do you work in your studio every day? A. Weekdays yes, and I sometimes work on the weekends. I also like to have something I can work on in the evenings while relaxing (much like my mother did). This activity would be something repetitive and easy to do while watching TV. Q. What do you do for fun? A. Hummm, maybe I should try to find more time for that. I like to run, but I don’t know if that exactly counts as a fun thing to do. I used to like to play guitar and maybe I should get back to that one. Q. What kind of music do you listen to while creating? A. I usually listen to jazz while working. Q. Did your family have an influence on your decision to become an artist’s? A. I’m sure they did, but not directly. I have a brother who did
some painting while I was growing up, so that introduced me to the concept of making art. My mother was an avid crafter who always crocheted in the evening, and during the day, when she wasn’t doing household chores she was working on some other craft project. I do credit my mother with giving me the genes for compulsive behavior, which is why I like to work very directly with a material and employ repetitive construction techniques. My parents were always supportive of my art. I only remember one conversation I had with my dad warning me that it was hard to be an artist. He never brought it up again and was supportive from that time on. Q. Why does the world need art? A. For me, art is a positive force that makes life worth living. It is the way we explore our relationship to the world around us. Without art the world would be a pretty bleak place. Making art is my greatest joy and I like to think that by sharing my art I can make the world just a tiny bit better. In the very least it keeps me sane.

AMY FIRESTONE ROSEN
Q. When did you first realize you were an artist A. When I was little I used to create my own paper dolls and their outfits. I have always loved creating, coloring, painting and designing. Q. Description of art? A. My work is process driven. I have created a vocabulary of patterns and images of which I equate to spices in a pantry. I use these to build my work. My best work happens when I use my unconscious mind. There are times when I don’t realize what the work is about until a matter of time. Nothing is ever thrown away. Q. Current medium? A. Monoprints based on items of clothing. Q. Previous medium? A. Mixed Media abstract. Q. Favorite subject matter? A. I am fascinated by textile patterns in clothing and the marks that are made by using the items as relief plates. Good-
will, The Scholarshop, Veterans Village or any vintage shop can become my hunting ground for pieces of clothing to become my muse. I often seek the most outlandish items and wonder who was the original owner, where they planned to wear the outfit and what was the occasion? A. Have you been influenced by an artist and how? Q. Matisse for the wonderful patterns and fantastic colors, Jim Dine for his iconic prints A. What inspires and motivates you? Q. That seems to change from one body of work to another. I’m sure it depends on what is going on with my life.
A. How has your work changed as you developed as an artist? Q. The more I make art, the braver I have become. I enjoy reacting to the unplanned marks that occur while printing and creating my own rules as I go along.

Q. What interests do you have besides? A. Cooking, movies Q. Studio space A. My work is created on a press and I have taken classes and rented space in order to use one. Q. Do you work in your studio everyday? A. I try to work four to five days a week. Q. What do you do for fun? A. Hang out with family and friends. Q. What type of music do you listen to while creating? A. I listen to NPR. You can’t sing along but I feel like I learn while working. The interviews keep me company Q. Did your family have an influence on your decision to become an artist? A. Yes, they have always been every supportive. Q. Why does the world need art? A. Well, I don’t really know why the world needs art but I can say that I am a better, happier person when I can create.
Amy Firestone Rosen —Artist Statement I have worked as a designer since 1980. When I design for clients I am both translator and interpreter. When I began creating for myself I found the freedom to let go of any internal visual rules intriguing. The problem solving process of each work demanded and pushed me out of my comfort zone and forced me to create my own rules and vocabulary. In 2003 I began taking painting and print making classes. The independence I discovered in utilizing these techniques inspired me to delve into a dialog process of finding connections and conversations between the human touch versus machine touch. The result is a sense of surprise and spontaneity. Born in St. Louis, Missouri I currently live in St. Louis $85.00 to $1200.00 Represented by PHD Gallery Web site: Amy Firestone Rosen.com

Alice Calhoun Q. When did you first realize you were an artist? A. I guess I have always been an artist. When I was 5, I drew a picture from one of those old matchbook covers, put it in an envelope, and sent it off (with the help of my kindergarten teacher). I got a letter back saying I had been accepted into a professional art school program. My mother said I had to go to finish kindergarten first. As a child, I built magical worlds on table tops, in closets, and under great big trees and told stories to my friends about the faerie creatures who lived there. I won numerous awards for my artwork in school. Although I went to graduate school in literature and taught for many years, I wrote my dissertation on the struggle of the artist in a world filled with multiple, changeable sources of meaning. It was titled Suspended Projections: Religious Roles and Adaptable Myths in the Fictions of John Hawkes, the Films of Ingmar Bergman, and the Paintings of Francis Bacon. J Quite a mouthful.

Q. Description of your art? Elegant and yet joyful copper garden sculpture designed for home and garden. Many of my pieces have stories. Current Medium Since I have become a professional artist, it has always been copper sculpture Previous Medium In college, I minored in Art and took Painting and Drawing classes. Q. Do you have a Favorite Subject Matter? A. Dance informs the movement in my artwork; myth informs the meaning. I sometimes do pieces inspired by paintings: Midsummer’s Eve by Robert Hughes, Primavera by Botticelli, Dance at Bougival by Renoir, The Four Seasons (separate paintings of each) by Alphonse Mucha are examples. I am working on a new series inspired by Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. This is especially pleasing for 19

I am working on a new series inspired by Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. This is especially pleasing for for me since I studied at the Shakespeare Institute in Stratford-upon-Avon, England, and had a scholarship to the American Shakespeare Institute. That work was many years ago, so it’s nice to reread Shakespeare. Q. Have you been Influenced by what artist and how? A. No direct influence except that I do the occasional “homage” mentioned above. On the other hand, I think I am influenced in some way by every museum, cathedral, or castle I visit and every play, dance/ musical performance, literary reading I attend. Q. What inspires and motivates you? A. The whirling movement of dance, the glow and colorability of 20
copper, the take-your-breath-away beauty of color-filled gardens, the deep mysteries of ancient myths – all these inspire me. I grew up in the South where landscape is legendary and storytelling is a way of life. I love to travel and am lucky enough to have traveled widely to ancient places in Europe and the US; I always find new energy and new inspiration in these ancient landscapes. Q. How has your work changed as you developed as an artist? A. I began telling simple stories through my artwork, and the designs had afolk art simplicity. The stories were often new versions of old children’s tales. I early on re-discovered my love of dance and for several years made both the folk art garden creatures and dancers. Before too long, however, the stories became more complex, and I began to people my artistic world with characters that came straight from my imagination. Dance remained a source of inspiration, but the sculpture was no longer just a dancer; it was a character in the imaginary world I had created. For example, I did a gesture drawing of a contemporary dancer at the dance performance. As I was working on making the figure from copper, I knew she was much more than just a dancer. She is the Enchantress: every night she sings and dances and weaves the magic spell that makes the world beautiful. Q. What interests do you have besides art? A. I read a lot, mostly fictionalized history. Luncheon of the Boating Party, a novel about the summer when Renoir painted his masterpiece, is a recent favorite; I was mad to see a Renoir after reading this. I also did a walking tour on the Impressionists and visited Maison Fournaise this past spring. (I had been to Giverny several years ago). My husband and I love to travel. and I find it a great source of inspiration. In the past four years, we have been to Alaska, to Provence, to Bordeaux, to Burgundy, to Paris twice, to England and Ireland four times. The trips to England and Ireland are for business since I exhibit periodically at the Chelsea Flower Show in London and each year at Bloom in Dublin, but we usually do some traveling as well. I especially find the hidden places in Ireland a great source of inspiration; all of the landscape photos in my book are photos I took in Ireland. My husband and I are also interested in regional wines and foods, so when we travel, especially abroad, we usually seek these out, believing that these along with the art and history and music, define the culture. Just about everything I love, I in some way incorporate into my art. My life is my art; my art is my life. One leads to and inspires the other. What I do now I will do forever. When I can no longer make my copper Above: Highhand Dancers Right clockwise from top: Eve & Dawnphilly, Mermaid and Ascending Faerie Philly

sculpture (and I’m not sure if that day will ever come), I will write more stories peopled with the characters I have created over the years. Q. Studio Space where is it and describe your studio what is it like A. My husband and I own two historic houses in Hermann, Missouri. We live in one house, and my studio is in the other. It is not open to the public since I have/use dangerous/hazardous tools and chemicals. Q. Do you work in your studio every day? A. My studio is where I have the tools to cut and clean the copper, my acetylene torch, the acids and paint that color my work. I am in and out of the studio nearly every day when I am at home. But I do my design work/drawing in my kitchen where the light is great and, of course, I do all the paperwork that goes with running a small business in both my home and studio “offices.” Q. What do you do for fun? A. In addition to the dance performances, reading and travel mentioned above and all the learning associated with that, I love theatre, gardening, myth, and history. I do love PBS Masterpiece as well. Q. What kind of music do you listen to while creating? A. I don’t; I concentrate better in a quiet space. I like music that tells a story and large romantic piano concertos and do listen to these when I’m driving. I also try to get music that is characteristic of the various places I travel to. Above: Sunbathing Mermaid Philly

Q. Did your family have an influence on your decision to become an artist? A. My grandmother had been a painter and also designed and made beautiful clothes – but not as a professinal. My parents encouraged intellectual pursuits more, seeing artwork as a pastime more than a profession. So I was a college literature professor and a corporate executive before coming to the art as a profession. Q. Why does the world need art? A. To remind us of what gives joy and meaning to life.

OUR VISIT TO BENTONVILLE, ARKANSAS...
from us to you the architecture and natural setting will take your breath away!
E
By Joyce Rosen and Sandy Kolde
arly in November, 2012 with three of my arty friends we traveled to Bentonville, Arkansas…to visit the magnificent Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art. Crystal Bridges sits on 120 acres of lush forest and the Museum gets its name from a nearby natural spring and from the unique bridge construction incorporated into the building design. Moshe Safdie has designed an unusual museum for Alice Walton, who had the vision and was the driving force behind Crystal Bridges Museum. Alice Walton, is the daughter of Sam Walton, founder of Walmart, which is headquartered nearby. The Galleries contain American history art. The nineteenth and early twentieth centuries are splendidly represented, although the late twentieth-century works in the collection are less impressive, I would like to see contemporary American Artist for some impact. The galleries are box like spaces, spanned by curved wooden beams. The original design specified skylights in all of the galleries, but a year before the opening, while construction was under way, a new museum director was appointed. There were different views, and the skylights were removed.” Modern Curators are highly sensitive to gallery light levels natural light is notoriously difficult to control. http://crystalbridges.org Eleven the Museum’s restaurant was excellent, we had dinner there, the food presentation was excellent and the servers were friendly and accommodating. The Museum Store was a particular success with us and what was a pleasure and they carry original works by regional artists. I wasn’t sure what to expect when anticipating the trip to the Crystal Bridges Museum in Bentonville, Arkansas. Upon approach I was struck by the beauty of the surroundings; the wooded areas, the trails, and the
layout of the museum is spectacular. So much so, it almost eclipses the art collection. Another surprise, the museum is free to the public! The Walton clan have done a really good job. The art was enjoyable and varied. You can take yourself from the Renaissance to the Contemporary. The restaurant was very good, and the gift shop was impressive…I had to work hard to get out of there with out purchasing anything. All in all, a worthwhile trip, especially when you make it with good friends.

Katie Aicholz
Q. When did you first realize you were an artist A. Just recently. I’d always considered myself a designer, but not a true artist. In the last two years I’ve been focusing on developing my own style and incorporating the techniques that I love rather than producing collections for sale. Since that point I think that my work has become much more of an expression of myself. Q. Description of your art? A. Hand-dyed silks using a variety of shibori techniques. A. Current Medium- Silk fabric dyed using synthetic and local natural dyes B. Previous Medium-I’ve always worked in fabric. I started stitching quilt blocks with my grandma, then reconstructing used clothing to create ‘new’ garments, and finally developing full garments from conception to completion. Q. Do you have a Favorite Subject Matter: A. My primary technique is arashi shibori. I also enjoy Turkish marbling ‘Ebru”. Q. Have you been Influenced by what artist and how? A. Yes, I love the vast open spaces in traditional Japanese land24

scapes. I try to make my pieces as simplistic as possible. Editing out all of the unnecessary frills until I have a design that is both beautiful and functional. I am a huge fan of Elsa Schiapparelli also which is a great contradiction to the Japanese style. Her fashions were so theatrical, but I think that it’s really her innovative use of patterns, embellishment, and balance that interests me.
Q. What inspires and motivates you? A. Nature. I spend a lot of time outdoors with my dog collecting plants to use for dyeing. This evening I was collecting persimmons to use for cooking- rather than dyeing- and I noticed the extraordinarily rough surface of the older persimmon trees. I’m planning to use one of the Japanese Shibori techniques to recreate the look of the rough persimmon bark in my spring collection. My spring collection is also to be dyed using only local plants that I have either foraged for or grown myself. Q. How has your work changed as you developed as an artist? A. I’ve become more in tune to my individual design aesthetic. When I was starting out I tried to follow trends and make sure that I was producing just what my ideal customer would want. Now, I design for myself.
Q. What interests do you have: A. I’ve an avid gardener, cyclist, and have recently taken up pottery. I’ve tried to take up hobbies that allow me to quiet my mind. Studio Space where is it and describe your studio what is it like. I have a beautiful historic home in New Haven, MO and have transformed two of the bedrooms into studio space. One bedroom serves as the office and the other as the design studio. The design studio is a small, but very efficient area packed with a cutting table, design rack, sewing table, and shelves for fabric storage. I have only what I need to create and nothing more. Q. Do you work in your studio every day? A . It’s pretty close. I’m either doing paperwork, updating my website, or working in the design studio every day. However, wish I could just stay in the design studio. Q. What do you do for fun? A. I love to cook. I think that works well with the foraging for dyes. A couple months ago I set out to gather lichens to use for dyeing and ended up finding two large clumps of Hen of the Woods (wild mushroom). My fiance and I had mushroom everything that week from creamy soup, to pasta, to a mushroom pate’. I never really know what I’ll find when I’m in the woods. Q. What kind of music do you listen to while creating. A. Most recently I’ve been listening to The Talking Heads, Queens of the Stone Age, and Ali Farka Toure’. I think that the music I’m listening to shines through in the final collection. I’m not exactly sure how these artists will mix with this Spring’s collection. Q. Did your family have an influence on your decision to become an artist’s? I am one of the youngest of many cousins and an older sister and my family believes whole-heartedly in hand-me-downs. However, I never wanted to wear my sister’s old clothes,so I would reconstruct them and mix them with other garments. When I was in middle school I started making full garments. I would take my mom’s sheets, tablecloths, and curtains (sometimes off of the windows, if I felt so compelled) and lock myself in my bedroom with my sewing supplies. A few hours later I would emerge with a “new” outfit and though my mom wasn’t always happy that I had ruined her linens she was always supportive of my designs. Whether I wanted to be creative or not it was a necessity if I wanted to have clothes that were individual to my style. Q. Why does the world need art? A. People must have an outlet to express themselves. Katie Alcholz New Haven, MO 63068 www.kantley.com 573-680-0785

The late St. Louis businessman and philanthropist, Morton D. May, once exhibited his photographs at Maryville. He later established the Morton J. May Foundation Gallery on campus, in his father’s name. Recently relocated to the first floor of the University Library, the Gallery comprises two contemporary rooms of open floor and wall space. Two regional or national artists are typi-
cally shown each month, through exhibits that may include painting, drawing, prints, sculpture, metalwork, photography, illustration and more. Each spring, seniors graduating with a BFA in studio art have their own one-person exhibit in one of the gallery rooms. In summer months, the Gallery often features selected artwork of other talented Maryville students.

Through our Achieving Recovery, Resiliency & Responsibility Through Creativity (A.R.T.C.) programs, we provide a wide range of creative opportunities and experiences which allow program participants, young and old to use their talents, strengths and interests as tools for personal growth and recovery. Originally developed within our adolescent substance abuse treatment programs we have expanded A.R.T.C. to provide adults with substance use disorders and those struggling with persistent mental illness as well as youth experiencing a broad range of risks with innovative opportunities in both the prevention and treatment arenas. With strong visual and performing arts components, A.R.T.C. strives to use the language of creativity to ensure individuals with a wide variety of learning styles are given impactful opportunities to learn and change. Focused on the provision of both strengths and interest based prevention activities and interventions, A.R.T.C. takes both education and intervention to a new level, providing engaging and powerful vehicles within which to deliver messages of hope and crucial information that will allow for sustained personal change. Whatever their strengths, their talents, their abilities, their weaknesses and their concerns we must celebrate,cherish and encourage all human beings to be the best they can be, to put their best foot forward, to show the world how amazing they are! ~Kasey Harlin A.R.T.C.

Without art, things would be so boring. There are so many varieties, there is something out there for everybody to express themselves. There is no one way to do art. —Artist Statement When I sit down and start writing or drawing, especially when I am having a bad day, it gives me a mental get away. I can just pull out a piece of paper and do anything. I was really bored at my house and that was one of the main reasons I did drugs. It has showed me that there is something I can do besides using. It helps the time go by. I also think a lot. I can think about almost anything and think through my problems. It’s kind of like meditation. I can draw or write something and it can show what I am going through. Others can look at what I am doing and tell what I am going through without even asking. That is nice because I don’t like talking all the time, especially when I am mad. web site: www.pfh.org
