Wild Muse: Animals in Art

Date: 
May 5 2023 - Sep 17 2023
Gallery: 
Kay Daugherty Gallery

 

 

Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center is pleased to present 'Wild Muse: Animals in Art'. This exhibition will be open to the public in the Kay Daugherty Gallery from May 5 to September 17, 2023.

Lions and tigers and … griffins? Oh, my! Ever since humans first started drawing on cave walls, the animal world served as an endless source of fascination. Incorporating animal motifs into their decorative vocabulary, artists today use various commonplace creatures and mythic beasts to imbue their artwork with majesty, familiarity, or even humor. This exhibition showcases a selection of artwork depicting animals, both real and imagined.

 

JUROR: Maureen Leary, Youth & Family Programs Manager, National Postal Museum




Juror's Statement

As an educator at the Smithsonian National Postal Museum and an art enthusiast who frequently visits museums and galleries, art has long affected me both professionally and personally. I accepted the invitation to jury this show with great enthusiasm, and I was immediately intrigued by the exhibit's name. Wild Muse is incredibly apt because it suggests both mystery and intimacy. The animal world surrounds us constantly in ways both exotic and familiar, often unseen but affecting us profoundly. We are deeply intertwined with animal life yet it remains to some degree unknowable to humankind.

Selecting the artworks for this exhibit was a rare and delightful challenge. The variety of submissions reflected the breadth and complexity of the ways humans and animals interact with and affect each other. Companionship, predation, protection, vulnerability, beauty, and power were among the wide range of themes that emerged. Reading the artists' statements provided valuable insight into both subject selection and artistic process, but ultimately the choices came down to which pieces most sparked strong and lingering feelings. Animals have the capacity to evoke the full array of human emotions and these artworks did the same.

Throughout the review process I was reminded many times that despite the immediacy and depth of our connection with the animal world, so much remains unknown and unknowable. We can wonder and speculate. We can observe and assume. We can study and research. But ultimately, we can never discover all the mysteries of the animals with our minds – we can only aspire to do so with our imagination. The animal world will always be a wild muse for artists.

Beyond the Horizon: Explorations of Landscape

Date: 
Jun 9 2023 - Aug 27 2023
Gallery: 
Main Gallery


Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center presents 'Beyond the Horizon: Explorations of Landscape' which will be open to the public in the Main Gallery from June 9 to August 27, 2023.


'Beyond the Horizon: Explorations of Landscape' will showcase a diverse range of contemporary landscape art. The artists featured in the exhibit explore the natural world in new and innovative ways, often pushing the boundaries of traditional landscape art.

Contemporary landscape can take many forms, from realistic and representational works that capture the beauty of the natural world to more abstract and conceptual pieces that use the landscape as a means of exploring broader themes related to identity, culture, human impact, and politics. Unlike traditional landscape art, which often sought to capture a realistic and idealized representation of the landscape, contemporary landscape art often challenges our assumptions and expands our understanding of this fundamental aspect of the human experience to allow viewers to interact with the landscape in new ways.

Artists in Action provides visiting artists the opportunity to develop new artwork, network with other artists, display and sell their existing work in a gallery exhibit, and share their creative process with visitors. Through this program, artists are allowed to work in free studio space in a beautiful setting. The sculpture park provides numerous locations for artists to work and find inspiration. Outdoor artists can select days and times that fit their schedule and adjust as the weather dictates. Artists may work on any project they wish using our park as their workspace. The goal of the program is to provide artists with a safe opportunity to create and sell art while sharing the creative process with the public - at a distance. Outdoor artists may move their space freely day to day, utilizing covered areas, patios, forests, paths, etc. Artists are welcome to bring a small tent or patio umbrella for shade/ weather protection.

 

                       

Breaking Ground: Art about the Earth

Date: 
Feb 10 2023 - Apr 23 2023
Gallery: 
Kay Daugherty Gallery

Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center is pleased to present the exhibition 'Breaking Ground: Art about the Earth' in the Kay Daugherty Gallery. This exhibition will be open to the public from February 10 – April 23, 2023.


Annmarie After Hours Opening Reception - Friday, February 10, 5-7pm

 

Art has long been a partner of natural science to document our experiences. Imagination and vision are required when responding to the challenges of our ever-changing environment due to climate change in urban and rural ecosystems. Annmarie invites artists to engage in our mission to connect art and nature by creatively visualizing the impacts of sustainability on our Earth. This show will feature works highlighting the fragility, ferocity, beauty, transformation, and stark realities induced by human behavior.

"No matter how much one may love the world as a whole, one can live fully in it only by living responsibly in some small part of it.”

― Wendell Berry

 

Juror's Statement

“While not an artist myself but a scientist working in the field of public engagement, I have a great appreciation for art’s ability to engage the viewer and provoke internal and external dialogue on complex topics. The submitted works for this exhibit did not disappoint. I approached the task of selecting work for this exhibit by reading the artist’s statements and sorting through for thought-provoking and well-composed works. The pieces showed a great range of creativity and craftsmanship, and, overall, selecting from the pool of hundreds of submitted pieces was no easy feat.

In choosing pieces for the exhibit, I was struck by the breadth of environmental issues addressed by the submitted works: habitat destruction, invasive species, pollution, and the many detrimental effects of climate change, to name some. And while much of the artwork focused on the negative effects humans have had on nature, equally present was the positive influence of nature on humans: providing us with beauty, solace, and escape. It was clear from the works both the scale of our influence and the scale of our appreciation, from microscopic algae in a drop of water to sweeping landscapes. I appreciate that the art shared in this exhibit will not only engage viewers in pondering the great environmental challenges we face but also allow us to appreciate why it is worth taking action to restore and protect our environment.”

Anna Davis

Postdoctoral Fellow, Smithsonian Environmental Research Center.

Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Art Center and the Tom & Katie Watts Youth Fund are pleased to present Vibe Check: A Teen Art Exhibition, March 3 - 26, 2023.

 

VIRTUAL BOOKLET PT. I                 VIRTUAL BOOKLET PT. II


Annmarie After Hours Opening Reception - Friday, March 3, 5-7pm.  Family and friends are welcome to attend the opening.   Details Here.


Teen Takeover - Friday, March 24, 7-10pm. Teens are invited to attend this free event with live music, DJ, karoake, unique photo ops, interactive art experiences, outdoor fire pit, food & drink.  Free and open to all teens.  Reservations not required, just come!  Details Here.


Vibe Check is intended to give teens ages 13–19 a safe space to express themselves through art. With many students having to adjust to the challenges of post-pandemic life, art continues to be more important than ever as an avenue of communication and connection. Whether through visual artwork, digital media, social media, video, creative writing, spoken word, music, or other performing arts, the exhibit will include works that communicate what it means to be a teen in the world today.

 

Juror: Sarah Cappo, Teen Program Specialist at Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden

Juror's Statement:

“As someone who manages teen programs, I spend a lot of time thinking about what it means to be a teen in the world today. As someone who manages teen programs at a contemporary art museum, I spend even more time thinking about how teens fit into the museum’s mission to provide a platform for the art and artists of our time.

 The contents of this exhibit delineate the breadth of teen experiences today. These pieces are joyful and genuine, reflective and revolutionary. While many of the emotions expressed here are universal, the realities of these artists’ lived experiences are very different than anyone who was a teen before the COVID-19 pandemic.

 As you look through the works in this exhibition, I hope you find works that surprise you, resonate with you, and give insight into the lives of teenagers today. I know from my own work that this generation has powerful ideas to share; all we have to do is listen.”

ARTIST STATEMENT

My mission as an artist is to give a visual voice to issues that affect all of humanity. I use my work as a reminder of the myriad of ways we are connected, as well as to comment on both the ordinary and exceptional events that mold our day-to-day life and relationships. The body of work that I am currently pursuing addresses the ever-present issue of race from the perspective of the messages that are conveyed, whether explicit or subtle, and how discussion about race is framed. The collective trauma of our racial history continues to affect us at all levels, permeating our consciousness and becoming a filter through which we process our existence. While we have a particular history with race in the United States, these issues are universal, whether based on race, ethnicity, gender, religion, or other social delineation.

The question then becomes how do we “turn poison into medicine” and transform negative messaging into sources for growth and change. Similarly, how does our dialogue around race issues change, along with our ability to engage in constructive dialogue based on common understanding? How do we practice seeing others as individuals rather than a monolith? This is the work we must all do on an ongoing basis.
