2023 International Women's Day Tessellation

Celebrating International Women's Day 2023, I present to you, in tessellation form of course, my hero "Marjorie Rice and Her Tessellating Pentagon Discoveries".

On the forefront this year for sure, #IWD2023, March 8th. Two fronts actually. Two shows in Victoria (Canada) and my dueling inspiration, a game of tag with Jason Panda on Instagram. The first instance, a show at the Victoria Arts Council, I wrote about in a previous post. A juried show with the IWD premise celebrated for the whole of March, workshops, talks, conversations, panel discussions and…

Marion Elizabeth Adnams  (3 December 1898 – 24 October 1995) was an English painter, printmaker and draughtswoman. She is notable for her surrealist paintings, in which apparently unconnected objects appear together in unfamiliar, often outdoor, environments. Some of her paintings depict landscapes and landmarks close to, or within, her native town of Derby.  via Wikipedia Adnam’s work can be…

Celebrating Yayoi Kusama on her birthday 🤍. In 2004 we presented her installation of floating mirrored balls ⚪️ “Narcissus Garden” at @centralparknyc in collaboration with @whitneymuseum as part of that year’s Biennial. Throughout her decades-long career, the artist has continued to explore themes of infinity and illusion. PS #PAFstaffpick - we are so excited for “Cosmic Nature” to open @nybg next month! #YayoiKusama #5WomenArtists (at Conservatory Water, Central Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMuZzW2FXH9/?igshid=1p70blchg2ccf

Miriam Schapiro was a painter, sculptor, printmaker and “femmagist” born in 1923 to Jewish parents of Russian descent. A trailblazing feminist artist, Miriam Schapiro is known for establishing the Feminist Art Program at the California Institute of the Arts with Judy Chicago in 1971. Schapiro put forward the idea that femmage—decorative and domestic elements traditionally considered “women’s work,” were often excluded from museums and the realm of “fine art.”

The visually dense and diverse “Tapestry of Paradise” shows the application of femmage—accumulative and writ large against art history’s diminished view of women artists’ achievements. See it now on view, in Out of Place: A Feminist Look at the Collection.

#5WomenArtists: Agnes Miller Parker

For our final artist in the #5WomenArtists challenge on this #Fine Press Friday, we present work by the outstanding Scottish wood engraver Agnes Miller Parker.  We hold ten works illustrated with original wood engravings by Parker. She is especially noted for illustrations commissioned by the Limited Editions Club. Today we present a selection of engravings from what is perhaps her most acclaimed work Thomas Gray‘s, Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard, published by the Limited Editions Club in 1938, and designed and printed by Robert Ashwin Maynard at his Raven Press in Alperton, Middlesex, in an edition of 1500 copies. The book includes 32 original wood engravings by Parker. She is one of our very favorite 20th-century wood engravers!

Happy Feathursday! 

Great Spotted Woodpeckers (Dendrocopos major), like many woodpeckers, have a zygodactyl arrangement of the foot, with two toes facing forward and two back. They also have stiff tail feathers to help them stabilize on tree trucks as they climb up and down. 

This illustration was created by Elizabeth Gould and John Gould for Gould's Birds of Europe, Vol. 3 (1837), which was digitized by Smithsonian Libraries for inclusion in Biodiversity Heritage Library.

This month, UWM’s Distinctive Collections are highlighting women for Women’s History Month. Throughout this month, each collection will be showcasing 5 women artists! Be sure to check out @uwmarchives & @uwmspeccoll for their artists. Our first artist is Mary Jo Read: 

Mary Jo Read (1911-1998), a specialist in the cultural geography of Latin America, was a faculty member in UWM’s geography department for 25 years and chaired the department 1958-63. She later served as professor of geography at Eastern Illinois University, Charleston, retiring in 1975. Read was an avid traveler and photographer, and one of the first tourists to visit Antarctica. AGSL has digitized 250 images she took during a 1935 visit to China, Japan, Korea, and the Philippines. Other images can be found in the Mary Jo Read Collection on the AGSL Digital Collections website.

#5WomenArtists: Susan Stuart Goodrich Frackelton

For Women’s History Month, UW-Milwaukee’s Distinctive Collections are joining the 5 Women Artists challenge. Be sure to check out @agslibrary & @uwmspeccoll for their contributions.

Today we are featuring the Wisconisn artist Susan Stuart Goodrich Frackelton or Mrs. S. S. Frackelton. Born in Milwaukee, Susan Goodrich became a leader of the Arts and Crafts Movement in the United States. She taught the art and technique of painting ceramics and china to women from her studio in downtown Milwaukee. The classes offered women the opportunity to develop their talents and marketable skills to make a profitable living of their own.

She was President of the National League of Mineral Painters, organized the Milwaukee Artist’s Association in 1887, authored the book “Tried by Fire” in 1885 and received patents for her development of a home gas kiln in 1886 and 1888. Frackelton also earned nine medals at the 1893 Chicago World’s Columbian Exposition.

You can learn more about Susan Stuart Goodrich Frackelton (1848-1932) on the Museum of Wisconsin Art website. Her collection of papers is fully digitized and can be accessed through the Wisconsin Historical Society. The UWM Archives holds the physical copies of her papers. (Milw SC 23)

For centuries, the traditional art world asserted the importance of narrative in paintings. That is why the shift towards abstraction is one of the most important—and most radical—innovations of modern Art. Interestingly, the question of who should get the credit for inventing abstract art does not have a clear answer. ⁠ ⁠ Hilma af Klint began painting abstract compositions as early as 1906. Predating artists like Kazimir Malevich, Wassily Kandinsky, Piet Mondrian. ⁠ ⁠ Read her story ⁠ ➡️ "Hilma af Klint: Pioneer of Abstract Art" [🔗link in bio]⁠ ✍️ Emily Snow ⁠ @emi_sno⁠ #Repost @dailyartmagazine ⁠ 🖼️1.

American photographer Thérèse Bonney was one of the first 10 women to graduate from the Sorbonne. She also established the first American illustrated press service in Europe, the Bonney Service, in 1924. Her photographs of Paris in the 1920s and 1930s are now important documentation of Art Deco design in France.
