The exhibition, curated by Dr. Ana Frangovska and Niki Papaspyrou,&nbsp;featured artists from the Balkans and the Mediterranean. Inspired by Basarab Nicolescu’s theory of interconnected and multi-layered reality, the exhibition approached the "hidden third" as an intermediate sphere of existence where oppositional concepts coexist and are transformed: presence/absence, material/immaterial, individual/collective. Following its presentation in Athens, the exhibition will travel to Skopje, where it will be hosted from October 2 to 25, 2025, at the Multimedia Center Mala Stanica of the National Gallery of North Macedonia, continuing the cross-Balkan and Mediterranean dialogue initiated in the Greek capital.

The exhibition features the work of five artists living, among other places, in the West and Southwest of the United States. These artists process their surrounding spaces taking in their immediacy but also their paradoxes—their relationships to places they know in faraway lands like Cyprus, India, Spain, Romania, or in (the more distant still) fictional spaces of literature, art, and film. Each of the five explores idiosyncratically the intersections between the local and the global, native and foreign, familiar and unfamiliar, nearness and distance.</div><div>July 24 - August 22, 2025</div> </div> </div> <div class="ucb-newsletter-section-article "> <div id="feature-article-media-img-3" class="feature-article-img"> <div> <div class="imageMediaStyle large_image_style"> <img loading="lazy" src="/artandarthistory/sites/default/files/styles/large_image_style/public/2025-08/living_here_barrick_by_krystal_ramirez_62_small.jpg?itok=QzFaSJ02" width="1500" height="1000" alt="Yumi Janairo Roth artwork"> </div> </div> </div> <div id="feature-article-user-title-3"> <h3> <div>Yumi Janairo Roth, Sculpture &amp; Post-studio Practice and Emmanuel David, Women &amp; Gender Studies</div> </h3> </div> <div class="article-summary" id="feature-article-summary-user-text-3"> <div><em>Living Here</em><br>Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art<br>June 20, 2025 - December 20, 2025</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div><em><span>Living Here</span></em><span> is an exhibition of artists from the East and Southeast Asian diasporas.

From the late 1960s onward, Chicano activists in northern New Mexico theorized and reactivated the notion of <em>resolana</em> as method and critical praxis by gathering community-sourced anecdotes, proverbs, recipes, remedies, and artistic techniques from elder generations, which were then documented and disseminated toward grassroots pedagogical ends.&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Christine Bachman's</strong><span> teaching and research focus on the forms and functions of medieval art and its significance within a geographically-expansive worldview. Her research concentrates on early medieval manuscripts with an emphasis on materials and production processes, the construction and dissemination of decorative motifs, and artistic connections between northwestern Europe and the wider world in the eighth century. In 2020, she curated the online exhibit, “A Liberal Arts Education for the (Middle) Ages: Texts, Translations, and Study” for the Schoenberg Institute for Manuscript Studies and in 2019, curated the exhibit “The Gothic Library: Medieval Revival Designs for Books and Their Spaces” for the Winterthur Library.</span></p> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--newsletter-section paragraph--view-mode--default"> <h2> <div>Upcoming Events</div> </h2> <div class="row row-content"> <div class="col-lg-6 col-12 pb-4"> <div class="teaser-article-img px-2"> <img src="/artandarthistory/sites/default/files/styles/focal_image_square/public/2025-08/Souza_Mikiala_P.jpg?h=ff3d9b23&amp;itok=-z6I9O-B" alt="mina elison"> </div> <h3> <div>Visiting Artist Lecture Series</div> </h3> <div class="article-summary" id="teaser-article-summary-user-text--0"> <p>We are excited to offer a full semester of amazing visiting artist lectures.

She employs both, using them simultaneously to unfold the implied relationship between narrative time and painterly process.

Eschewing categorization, his expansive, nomadic body of work traverses the forms of photographs, artist books, performances, the Internet, mail art, sound, rubber stamps, gastronomy, and natural environments. His work examines questions of distance between places, people and time in order to test the possibilities of appropriating, undermining or even erasing these distances. Using image, text and objects, his works circulate and operate independently of himself, penetrating ever more effectively the intimate sphere. When encountering his works– in the postal system, libraries, or the airport lost-and-found services– our attention to the infinitesimal, inherent loopholes and alternative logics, and the imaginary comes to the fore. Like lullabies impressed upon our minds, Horvitz deploys art as both objects of contemplation and as viral or systemic tools to affect change on a personal scale. Horvitz makes fictions that insert themselves surreptitiously into the real.</p><p>His work was exhibited in venues such as: SITE Santa Fe; High Line Art, New York; MoMA, New York; New Museum, New York; SF MOMA, San Francisco; Palais de Tokyo, Paris; HangarBicocca, Milan; Thyssen-Bornemisza Art Contemporary; Brooklyn Museum, among others.</p> </div> </div> <div class="ucb-newsletter-section-article "> <div id="feature-article-media-img-4" class="feature-article-img"> <div> <div class="imageMediaStyle large_image_style"> <img loading="lazy" src="/artandarthistory/sites/default/files/styles/large_image_style/public/2025-08/Screenshot%202025-08-05%20at%202.39.02%E2%80%AFPM.png?itok=3CA045eC" width="1500" height="1049" alt="Ebitenyefa Baralaye"> </div> </div> </div> <div id="feature-article-user-title-4"> <h3> <div>Ebitenyefa Baralaye</div> </h3> </div> <div class="article-summary" id="feature-article-summary-user-text-4"> <p><strong>Monday, October 27th at 4:00 PM</strong><br><strong>Visual Arts Complex auditorium, 1B20</strong></p><p><span>Ebitenyefa Baralaye is a ceramicist, sculptor, designer, and educator.

The structure is 3-weeks of on-site fieldwork followed by 3-weeks of asynchronous online work and reflection. The program puts students in touch with various landscapes and is focused on teaching site and context-based approaches to art creation. The Field School is designed as an experiential course, meaning that students learn about places and context through being in the field and making artwork on-site. While living and working in the field, students create and discuss various art-making approaches with environments such as prairies, forests and waterways. Students may explore many mediums including: writing, photography, sculpture, drawing and video and sound recording.</span></p><p><span>Topics that are discussed and of which students work with in for this course are: nature and process; ecology; conservation; highways and byways; non-urban phenomenology; climate change; borderlands; pastoralism; wayfaring; waterways; pilgrimages; colonialism; ownership and identity; agriculture; idealized and ignored landscapes; and geomorphology. The 2025 session will travel to the San Luis Valley and Western Slope of Colorado, finishing with an exhibition at the Mountain Research Station near Nederland. Please note this course is off-campus and a signed university waiver and active health insurance is required.</span></p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-lg-6 col-12"> </div> Tue, 22 Apr 2025 20:16:01 +0000 Kirsten Stoltz 1408 at /artandarthistory /artandarthistory/newsletter/newsletter/news-april-22-2025 <span>News, April 22, 2025</span> <span><span>Kirsten Stoltz</span></span> <span><time datetime="2025-04-22T14:16:01-06:00" title="Tuesday, April 22, 2025 - 14:16">Tue, 04/22/2025 - 14:16</time> </span> Art &amp;amp; Art History News <div> <div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--newsletter-section paragraph--view-mode--default"> <h2> <div>Upcoming Events</div> </h2> <div class="ucb-newsletter-section-article "> <div id="feature-article-media-img-0" class="feature-article-img"> <div> <div class="imageMediaStyle large_image_style"> <img loading="lazy" src="/artandarthistory/sites/default/files/styles/large_image_style/public/2025-04/Screenshot%202025-04-22%20at%202.19.13%E2%80%AFPM.png?itok=cMiagoln" width="1500" height="718" alt="Hannah Purvis"> </div> </div> </div> <div id="feature-article-user-title-0"> <h3> <div>MFA Thesis Exhibition (group 2) opens this week!</div> </h3> </div> <div class="article-summary" id="feature-article-summary-user-text-0"> <p>Group 2: Spring 2025</p><h4><strong>Emily Moyer, Alejandra Saldivar, Ana González Barragán, Hannah Purvis</strong></h4><p>Opening Reception: Friday, April 25th, 4-6 PM</p><p>CU Art Museum (1085 18th Street, 91PORN campus)<br>Exhibition dates: April 26-May 10, 2025</p><p>(Image: Hannah Purvis)</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-lg-6 col-12"> </div> Tue, 22 Apr 2025 20:16:01 +0000 Kirsten Stoltz 1407 at /artandarthistory /artandarthistory/newsletter/newsletter/april-15-2025 <span>April 15, 2025</span> <span><span>Kirsten Stoltz</span></span> <span><time datetime="2025-04-15T08:56:07-06:00" title="Tuesday, April 15, 2025 - 08:56">Tue, 04/15/2025 - 08:56</time> </span> Art &amp;amp; Art History News <div> <div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--newsletter-section paragraph--view-mode--default"> <h2> <div>Upcoming Events</div> </h2> <div class="ucb-newsletter-section-article "> <div id="feature-article-media-img-0" class="feature-article-img"> <div> <div class="imageMediaStyle large_image_style"> <img loading="lazy" src="/artandarthistory/sites/default/files/styles/large_image_style/public/2025-04/Slide1.jpg?itok=vpS5rooB" width="1500" height="625" alt="Grad showcase image"> </div> </div> </div> <div id="feature-article-user-title-0"> <h3> <div>Art History Thesis Showcase — Opens Today!</div> </h3> </div> <div class="article-summary" id="feature-article-summary-user-text-0"> <p><span>Join us for a reception on </span><strong>Tuesday, April 15 from 3:30-5:00pm </strong><span>for the Art History Thesis Showcase exhibition in the VAC first-floor lobby.

The structure is 3-weeks of on-site fieldwork followed by 3-weeks of asynchronous online work and reflection. The program puts students in touch with various landscapes and is focused on teaching site and context-based approaches to art creation. The Field School is designed as an experiential course, meaning that students learn about places and context through being in the field and making artwork on-site. While living and working in the field, students create and discuss various art-making approaches with environments such as prairies, forests and waterways. Students may explore many mediums including: writing, photography, sculpture, drawing and video and sound recording.</span></p><p><span>Topics that are discussed and of which students work with in for this course are: nature and process; ecology; conservation; highways and byways; non-urban phenomenology; climate change; borderlands; pastoralism; wayfaring; waterways; pilgrimages; colonialism; ownership and identity; agriculture; idealized and ignored landscapes; and geomorphology. The 2025 session will travel to the San Luis Valley and Western Slope of Colorado, finishing with an exhibition at the Mountain Research Station near Nederland. Please note this course is off-campus and a signed university waiver and active health insurance is required.</span></p> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div> <div class="paragraph paragraph--type--newsletter-section paragraph--view-mode--default"> <h2> <div>Faculty News</div> </h2> <div class="row row-content"> <div class=" col-12 pb-4"> <div class="teaser-article-img px-2"> <img src="/artandarthistory/sites/default/files/styles/focal_image_square/public/2025-04/Screenshot%202025-04-15%20at%2010.10.56%E2%80%AFAM.png?h=7d458d5a&amp;itok=rbFXhQF1" alt="Melanie Yazzie"> </div> <h3> <div>Melanie Yazzie, Professor, Printmaking</div> </h3> <div class="article-summary" id="teaser-article-summary-user-text--0"> <p>Recently featured in the Arts &amp; Sciences Magazine.</p><p><em><span><strong>Art and transformation are inherently connected, prof says</strong></span></em></p><p><em><span>For Melanie Yazzie, professor of art practices and head of printmaking in the Department of Art and Art History at the 91PORN, art and transformation are intrinsically connected.</span></em></p><p><a href="/asmagazine/2025/04/08/art-and-transformation-are-inherently-connected-prof-says" rel="nofollow"><span>Read the full article</span></a></p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-lg-6 col-12"> </div> Tue, 15 Apr 2025 14:56:07 +0000 Kirsten Stoltz 1405 at /artandarthistory
