April 22–June 22, 2012 Arts Program University of Maryland University College

Welcome

Katherine Lambert

Dear Patrons of the Arts, Thank you for joining us for the Faculty Art Invitational 2012 at University of Maryland University College (UMUC). For the first time, the exhibition will have a unifying theme: drawings.

This year, we welcome 14 esteemed art instructors who are part of the University System of Maryland or are guest artists.

Some of the artists, such as James von Minor, whose works were in our recent Biennial Maryland Regional Juried Art Exhibition, and Edward Brown, whose works have been seen in past faculty art exhibitions, may be familiar to you. Others, such as Mark Karnes and Christina P. Day, have not exhibited at UMUC before, and we look forward to presenting their artwork to our students, faculty, staff, and visitors.

Each of these artists was selected by our Arts Program curator for his or her ability to create art and inspire students. Whether in charcoal, graphite, or watercolor, drawing is a fundamental part of the creative process and is integral to the instruction of developing inspiring artists. UMUC is proud to extend its gallery space to those who refine this craft and share their knowledge with others.

We are thrilled to celebrate the creativity of these artists and hope that our visitors will appreciate the vibrancy and range of expression that they offer.

Sincerely,

Javier Miyares Acting President University of Maryland University College

Art—A Means to an End Eric Key Director, Arts Program University of Maryland University College

Most artists create works of art to express themselves and their experiences, to document events, and/or to reflect their heritage. They incorporate a moment of time onto a tangible surface of canvas, paper, metal, film, sculpture, etc. The “end” is a work of art that tells a story, fascinates the viewer, or heals the body. In any case, art will cause a response from the viewer.

I once had a conversation about collecting art with a young couple. They agreed that they needed more art—some color on their walls—and began a quest to add quality works to their home. In installing the works, they saw a distinct change in the overall atmosphere of their home. With just a few works, they said, their home became more inviting, reflective of their lifestyle, and representative of the America in which they live. Prior to hanging some art, they were content with living in a space with walls that were void of art and color. The husband said that he was not an art person but has noticed how art has changed the environment of his home. Now he is working with his staff to get works of art throughout the blank, white walls of his office—a space that has been void of art for the past several years—and will continue to visit museums and galleries to learn more about art and artists.

Our conversation reminded me that art is a powerful tool—art is a means to an end.

In one sense art is created for a specific purpose, and, on the other hand, it often has a meaning that is far beyond the intent of the creator. Today, we are learning more about the healing power of art as it is used in hospitals as therapy for patients.

Tomorrow, the power of art is unlimited. Just a few pieces of art changed the aesthetics of that couple’s home and changed the mind of the husband about the power of art to transform spaces. On a wider plane, art is a means to an end.

Art instructors play a key role in the preservation, promotion, and development of art forms for and among the next generation. They work to articulate concerns to peers to ensure the continuation of their art programs. They battle the challenge of budget cuts that can affect art supplies and staff. Art teachers are an important resource for students majoring in art or exploring their creative talents. They encourage, nurture, and evaluate students in all mediums and various styles and techniques. They mold students to become art practitioners. They challenge students to think, evolve, stretch their imaginations, and incorporate new techniques and

4

methods into their work. They help students reach their maximum potential and synthesize new modes of thought and methods in the art field. They are instructors, and, yet, at the same time, they are artists. Thanks to them, new mediums emerge for the next generation to view, digest, discuss, and evaluate. For example, with the evolution of technology in recent years, video art has had an increasing impact on the art world.

Faculty Art Invitational 2012 is the latest in a series of annual exhibitions to showcase works of art by artists who are a part of the University System of Maryland, to provide a professional environment for these artists to showcase their works, and to provide the public with a better understanding of the challenges working professional artists face. This exhibition also includes works by guest artists who have worked in or mastered the medium of drawing.

This year, Brian Young, UMUC’s curator, decided to focus the exhibition on the theme of drawing. This theme allows us to explore the use of paper in the creation of works of art. When an artist uses paper as the backdrop on which to affix a chosen medium (watercolor, pastel, charcoal, graphite, oil stick, etc.), the end result—ranging from simple line drawings to realistic depictions—is fascinating, sophisticated, and creative. It is a powerful interpretation of American life and experience. UMUC is delighted to present the Faculty Art Invitational 2012.

DRAWINGS: Faculty Art Invitational 2012 Brian Young Curator, Arts Program University of Maryland University College

My tenure as the curator of the UMUC Arts Program began in May 2011 while last year’s Faculty Art Invitational was taking place, and I am so pleased to continue this tradition.

The Faculty Art Invitational 2012 showcases the work of artists who are also instructors or professors within the University System of Maryland and works by select artists from other universities. This year those select artists include Christina Day and Mark Karnes, instructors at the Maryland Institute College of Art in Baltimore, and James Plumb, an instructor at Chesapeake College in Wye Mills.

The theme of this year’s invitational is Drawings. For me, the term drawing is broad and fluid; it encompasses many forms. During the Renaissance in Italy, drawings might be considered primi pensieri or first thoughts while in the 18th century in France, pastellists were in high demand. In the 20th century, Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso introduced collage into the lexicon of artistic terms. My definition of drawing, which has shifted over the years, largely includes the above terms and more. Essentially, drawings are unique works on paper that are not prints or photographs. Drawing can refer to works executed in ink, charcoal, silverpoint, crayon, pastel, watercolor, wash, collage, etc. It can include studies, sketches, finished works, works mounted on canvas, and so on. I have also broadened my definition to allow for rubbings, three-dimensional works, works executed with tape, and pieces where the pigment was blown rather than drawn on to the paper. In this invitational, James von Minor, for example, has expanded drawing’s range to allow for the inclusion of found objects such as pencils and small planks of wood. Matt Klos has lent a watercolor created with the monotype process. Amanda Burnham was responsible for the prominent installation piece. Yet, I did not set out with broadening the definition as a goal. Rather, I wanted to explore the rich variety of drawing executed by full-time artists who use it as part of the fundamental creative process.

The works by Day best embody the concept of pensieri from earlier centuries. Her work reflects an immediate interpretation of her ideas into tangible form. In other words, these drawings serve a functional role to aid the artist in planning the spatial complexities of her larger, three-dimensional works. Observed without that context,

6

they could be seen as economical or lacking the richness of other works in this show.

This would be a misreading; they are rich because of their purpose. Even with their functionality, they reveal underlying aesthetic traits such as balance and harmony.

In the drawings of von Minor, Nare Ratnapala, and Patrick Craig, viewers get the chance to see the creative process stripped of the complexities celebrated in their better-known works. In von Minor’s works on paper, we see the genesis of his ideas, as if he is gathering the building blocks of line, texture, and color. The physical tensions of his larger, finished works have their origins here in the tautness of string or in the choice of understated colors. Ratnapala’s numeric studies are reminiscent of the previous century’s exercises in automatism. At the same time, this series shows a remarkable control and consistency. Ratnapala’s drawings are simultaneously infused with energy and structural stability. Despite their beauty, the artist admits they are starting points for paintings, rendering the drawings expendable. Through the years, one of Craig’s principal pursuits is the arrangement of color within immeasurable spatial complexity. In the two pastels, that search is evident and stands in opposition to the more finished drawings such as Gum Brain. His contrasting approaches to drawing seen here serve as a reminder that individual artists often have a range of expression all within one artistic category. To emphasize this point across media and time, I have included his collage Trawler from 1984.

Karnes, Plumb, and Klos demonstrate that draftsmanship can be an indispensable part of preparing to create two-dimensional works. Collectively, their drawings are exquisite, but they represent just part of the artists’ output. Karnes works in a modest scale, but the detail, both present and implied, gives rich insight into his direct surroundings. While his subjects are frozen capsules of the ordinary, his command of watercolor is extraordinary. Klos evokes the spirit of the French Barbizon painters of the 19th century. His work originates from direct observation and is made timeless through the atmospheric qualities prized among early tonalists such as James A.M. Whistler and John Twachtman. Plumb’s lineage is traceable to the old masters of the 17th century, who looked to still lifes, animals, and the mirror for their subjects. Like Plumb, they captured the essence of those things observed in nature. Plumb’s line is precise and confident and effortlessly gives volume to pieces such as Ostrich Egg and Reilly.

Bradley Hudson’s drawings are preparatory as well, but for a different medium: illustration. He publishes comics through Coldstream Studios, and his drawings reveal the linear qualities so valued in that genre. Drawings are also crucial to mapping out the different vignettes arranged on each page. The end result can be compacted action, exaggerated drama, and interwoven narrative. Adding the color will come in a later stage.

Emily Conover has submitted a modest group in size and number, but together they remind us that small-scale drawings can possess untold tension and energy normally displayed in much larger installations. Even their titles, such as Roll and Remnants, underscore a restless quality matched by the rawness of the charcoal and pastel.

These works have the drama of a Baroque painting without the fussiness of a recognizable subject.

Works by Joan Bevelaqua, Brooke Rogers, and Trace Miller share enigmatic yet narrative qualities. Bevelaqua’s pieces, individually, appear as a small tableau. The implied presence of the human figure (even in Hornet Nest 1) mixes with the seeds of an unfolding story. The works evoke memory, absence, and tension. In Rogers’s work, the silhouettes are based on drawings of his wife set among corn plants. As the two elements are compared, the corn becomes a metaphor for the universality or oneness of forms in nature. While the scale is considerable and the colors are vibrant, the execution on paper lends a sense of fragility. Miller’s Boneyard and Cast No Shadows also allude to the fragility of life. The fragmented quality of the former collage is especially poignant for an image that freezes the moment of death.

Miller’s earlier artwork, Mobius Strip II, has an organic quality with its rich, warm pigment over rag paper.

Like Rogers, Edward Brown works in series based on the outdoor environment. For Brown, the emphasis is on the brooding quality of nature, with its dark shadows, anthropomorphic trees, and enormous scale. The visible strokes of charcoal heighten the sense of mystery and drama. This body of work reminds us why suspenseful tales are set in the forest.

Burnham takes the exhibition in a relatively new direction for drawing as evidenced by her site-specific work (in addition to the traditional pieces). As she toured the UMUC space, Burnham deliberately carved out a transitional or secondary space.

As such, she reminds audiences that drawing can be large-scale, three-dimensional, evolving, assembled, and irregular. In short, the possibilities are nearly endless.

I hope that this exhibition offers the opportunity to explore the rich variety that can be found within the slice of contemporary draftsmanship these teaching artists provide.
