SUMMARY:Form+Content Gallery: Chris Cinque Opening Reception

Right: Littlest\, charcoal and pastel on paper\, 43″ x 22″\, 2023.\n\n\nWhat\nA series of larger-than-life charcoal drawings that tell the story of a girl’s escape from the chaos of sexual trauma into a profound forgetfulness as she makes her way to a resolute adulthood. Her beloved older brother accompanies her partway on this journey. \nWhen\nMay 11 to June 17\, 2023\nGallery hours: Thursday\, Friday\, Saturday\, 12:00 noon – 6:00 pm and by appointment\nFree and open to the public. \nOpening Reception\nSaturday\, May 13\, 7:00 to 9:00 pm\nFree and open to the public. All are welcome. \nArtist’s Talk\nThursday\, June 1\, 6:30 to 8:00 pm\nFree and open to the public.

In them\, she captures the isolation and resilience of a damaged but unbroken child making her way decisively towards adulthood. “My work has always been driven by a desire to create a safe place for myself and for those who consider themselves outsiders. We live in a world of cataclysm and upheaval\, not by accident but as a result of the crushing limitations and controls set by centuries of patriarchal misgovernance. Can we make a better place that includes all of us? For me that is one of the tasks of art: to create a world where everyone can breathe and live free. Through our art\, we can help make a world where differences flourish and love obliterates hate.”\n \nArtist’s Biography\nChris has had careers as a theater artist (writer\, director\, performer)\, ELL teacher\, and visual artist. She toured her one-woman trilogy of plays\, “Growing Up Queer in America”\, throughout the US from 1985 to 1996. As a teacher\, she was deeply engaged with and influenced by her students. Both of these careers have had a profound effect on her life as a visual artist. Chris has received grants from the Bush and Jerome Foundations\, as well as the Minnesota State Arts Board. Her work has been exhibited by the Minneapolis Institute of Arts\, ARC Gallery in Chicago\, Hopkins Center for the Arts\, as well as in Texas\, Kansas\, Michigan\, Oregon and throughout Minnesota. She will be showing a large body of her work at the Phipps Center for the Arts in the Fall. Chris has been a member of Form+Content since 2020. This is her second solo exhibition at the gallery. More of her work can be seen at: www.chriscinque.com and www.formandcontent.org. She can also be reached at chriscnq@gmail.com \nPress Images \nFor high resolution images\, please contact chriscnq@gmail.com \n \nThe Suitcase\, charcoal on paper\, 68″ x 28″\, 2022 \n \nTo the Beach\, charcoal on paper\, 50″ x 25″\, 2023 \nMission Statement\nForm+Content Gallery nurtures diverse artistic practice and thoughtful dialogue. We value art as a catalyst for critical thinking. We value integrity and the artistic process. We aspire to link personal expression to broader social contexts. Form+Content Gallery is dedicated to moving the definitions and practice of culture forward in new and lively ways. \nCovid-19 policy\nWe are following the current Covid-19 protocol set forth by the Minnesota Department of Health.

SUMMARY:Form + Content: The Laughter of Nature by Elizabeth Erickson
DESCRIPTION:THE LAUGHTER OF NATURE:\nNEW AND BELOVED WORK BY ELIZABETH ERICKSON\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nForm + Content presents new and beloved paintings and poured drawings by Elizabeth Erickson\, curated by Joyce Lyon and Patricia Olson. \nExhibition Dates: March 30 – May 6\, 2023 \nOpening Reception Saturday\, April 1\, 1:00 – 3:00 pm\nFree and open to the public \n\n\n\n\nElizabeth Erickson’s intensely colored gestural works on canvas and paper focus on nuances of tone and stroke. Seeking with intention\, welcoming serendipity\, she works to open to meaning and spirit. In new works such as the series In the Boat\, the movement of paint strokes conjures the elemental experience of being in a small craft on big water. In the nine-foot square modular painting Temple to the Ebb and Flow\, the play of shape and gesture approaches a sacred geometry. A continuity throughout her work is the sense of discovery\, a lush\, joyful engagement with art and life. \n Artist’s Biography Elizabeth Erickson has worked as a painter\, poet and educator for over fifty years. She was a founding member of WARM (The Women’s Art Registry of Minnesota)\, was founder and Director of the Women’s Art Institute at Minneapolis College of Art and Design and St. Catherine University\, and is Professor Emerita at MCAD. Her work is included in many public\, corporate and private collections\, including the Minneapolis Institute of Arts\, Walker Art Center\, Macalester College\, General Mills and 3M. She has received grants from the Bush\, Ragdale and Mellon Foundations as well as the Minnesota State Arts Board. Among her exhibitions are Painting as Journey at St. Catherine University and Praising Creation at the Basilica of St. Mary in Minneapolis. She was a member of Form+Content Gallery from 2013 – 2015.

SUMMARY:Form + Content Gallery: Chemistry and Glue
DESCRIPTION:A collaboration between Jon Neuse and Ellie Kingsbury\nWhen: January 27 – March 5\, 2022\nJon Neuse and Ellie Kingsbury have not been slowed by the pandemic\, in fact they have taken the opportunity to consider the power of curiosity and inquiry as an endless expanse of possibilities. \nBoth artists\, with studios in the Traffic Zone Center for Visual Art\, work independently with their loose methodologies and continually ask what more they can do with their mediums. Neuse has reworked old paintings and monotypes\, and Kingsbury has taken expired photographic paper to a new dimension. They are both intrigued by seeing how formal artistic principles are reconciled. In each of their work they share a process of evaluating line\, mass\, color\, value\, and subject\, using their preferred tools and materials. Experimentation is the life-force of their creativity\, always asking what’s next while not asking what anything means. \nCHEMISTRY AND GLUE \n\n\n\n\nForm and Content Gallery presents Chemistry and Glue\, an exhibition of new work by Jon Neuse and Ellie Kingsbury. \nJon Neuse and Ellie Kingsbury have not been slowed by the pandemic\, in fact they have taken the opportunity to consider the power of curiosity and inquiry as an endless expanse of possibilities. Both artists\, with studios in the Traffic Zone Center for Visual Art\, work independently with their loose methodologies and continually ask what more they can do with their mediums. Neuse has reworked old paintings and monotypes\, and Kingsbury has taken expired photographic paper to a new dimension. \nThey are both intrigued by seeing how formal artistic principles are reconciled. In each of their work they share a process of evaluating line\, mass\, color\, value\, and subject\, using their preferred tools and materials. Experimentation is the life-force of their creativity\, always asking what’s next while not asking what anything means. \nArtist’s Biography\nJON NEUSE  \nPlayfulness\, experimentation and judgement are the principles behind my art. I begin all work whimsically not knowing how the work will look in the end. I experiment to make the visual relationships taut\, and I constantly evaluate if formal artistic elements resolve themselves into lasting relationships. \nIn these collages I attempted to create a counterpoint to Ellie’s experimental work. I worked with oil stick and pieces of old paintings and prints glued to black paper\, while she worked with white photo paper and chemicals. My work is more geometric and less organic than hers. \nI have been represented nationally in galleries from Connecticut to San Francisco and Chicago to Santa Fe. I have been in many solo and group exhibitions in area galleries\, including the Katherine E. Nash Gallery\, the Phipps\, the old Circa Gallery\, and the Traffic Zone Gallery. \nELLIE KINGSBURY \nMy goal is to stretch the capacity of photographic paper to new ends\, not to create an “image”. Working without a negative\, I strive for pure abstract form. Sharp contrasty edges sit alongside muffled tones\, creating a rather galactic look. \nI have used photography as my principle art form for the past 40 years\, and am currently incorporating mixed media into my projects. I am a recipient of the McKnight Fellowship and twice recipient of the Artist Initiative grant through the Minnesota State Arts Board. I have shown both nationally and internationally\, including group exhibitions in Beijing\, Helsinki\, San Francisco\, Philadelphia\, and Portland Oregon. I have had several solo exhibitions\, including the Bloomington Center for the Arts\, Cameraworks Gallery\, the Vine Arts Center. \nExhibition Dates:  January 27 – March 5\, 2022 \nOPENING RECEPTION\nFriday\, January 28\, 2022 6:00 – 8:30pm\nVirtual artist talk will be uploaded on the Form and Content website by February 4\, 2022 \nGallery hours: Thursday – Saturday\, 12:00 – 6:00pm and by appointment\nFree and open to the public \nArtist Conversation: Virtual gallery tour with pre-recorded artist talk will be made available on the Form + Content website by February 4\, 2022 \nExhibition Hours: Thursday\, Friday\, Saturday\, 12:00 – 6:00 pm \nAppointments are not required.

SUMMARY:Betula at Form+Content Gallery
DESCRIPTION:BETULA\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n June 27 – August 3\, 2019 \nForm + Content Gallery presents “Betula”\, exploring the tension of the unrestrained woods. There is both darkness and light\, fear and awe. By examining decaying birch trees\, Annie Irene Hejny questions the parallels between our human bodies and the natural world. \nOpening reception:  Thurs\, June 27th\, 6:00 – 8:00 PM \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtist Statement \nLast September\, I spent two weeks at the Pine Needles Residency in Marine on St. Croix. Every day\, I walked in the woods and listened to the trees. In those woods\, language dissolved and I melted into the environment. I listened deeply and was called to a site along the trail where seven pieces of fallen birch bark lay on the forest floor. I respectfully gathered the decaying tree skins and carried them back to my art studio to continue our conversation.* \n The seven abstract artworks exhibited for “Betula” are directly inspired by the spirits of those fallen trees. Sitting with them\, I reflected on my past experiences in the woods. As a child\, the dark trees and the sounds of unseen life within the woods filled me with fear. During those years\, I was taught to obey the patriarchal systems that restricted my spirit and skewed my perception of the wild. As time has passed from childhood to adulthood\, my consciousness has altered and I am no longer a stranger in the woods. Today\, I practice looking directly into the shadows as an act of re-wilding my spirit. \n*I have borrowed the birch bark and I will return it to those woods. \n Artist Biography \nAnnie Irene Hejny studied at the University of St. Thomas and St. Catherine University\, earning a double-major B.A. in Elementary Education and Studio Art\, Summa Cum Laude. She has successfully completed nearly 50 commissioned projects for galleries\, private collections\, and public institutions\, locally and nationwide. The Women’s Art Institute (WAI) at St. Catherine University and the Women’s Art Resources of Minnesota (WARM) Mentor Program have been influential in her art journey. \nHer work has been included in many solo and group exhibitions (Minnesota Marine Art Museum\, Winona; Catherine G. Murphy Gallery\, St. Catherine University; Paul Whitney Larson Art Gallery\, University of Minnesota; Public Functionary\, Minneapolis; Minnesota State Fair Juried Exhibition; The Woman’s Club of Minneapolis and Galería Municipal Rosario Sanchez de Lozada in Querétaro\, México). Hejny was an artist-in-residence with Lanesboro Arts (2017)\, The Science Museum of Minnesota Pine Needles Residency (2018)\, and has been invited for a residency at the Grand Marais Art Colony (September 2019). She works at the Casket Arts Building in NE Minneapolis and is a current member of Form + Content Gallery.

SUMMARY:Form+Content Gallery ‎Layers of Time : Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a vibrant evening of art and community! \nForm + Content Gallery presents Layers of Time\, an exhibition of paintings and works on paper by Clarence Morgan\, Stuart Nielsen\, and Howard Oransky. The exhibition celebrates the perspective of artistic change over time\, in recognition of the decades-long dedication each artist has brought to their studio practice. The artists also have a shared connection to the Department of Art at the University of Minnesota: Clarence Morgan is a member of the faculty\, Stuart Nielsen is an alumnus\, and Howard Oransky is a member of the staff. Morgan and Oransky showed their work together twice before at Form + Content Gallery: in Shared Distance in 2009 and in Patterns of Dialogue in 2016. \nClarence Morgan Statement \nI am interested in an approach to art making that explores the often-conflicted relationship between the decorative traditions in geometric patterns found in other cultures and western modernism. However\, the recent paintings\, prints and drawings avoid culturally specific subject matter in favor of a more elusive pictorial terrain of contemporary abstraction. I am interested in making work that serves as a catalyst for the imagination\, speculation and unscripted modes of knowing. Inasmuch\, my work attempts to reflect a broader generational curiosity where the familiar and unfamiliar both come together and potentially clash with each other in-order to open alternative portals of thought. \nClarence Morgan Biography \nClarence Morgan is a visual artist whose studio focus is centered on painting\, drawing and printmaking – often of an abstract nature. Utilizing random shapes and biomorphic forms within an intricate network of drawing\, Morgan’s work ranges from highly patterned organic painting compositions to meticulously articulated and somewhat minimal collage-drawings. He approaches each work intuitively allowing the forms and elements to find their own natural cadence and visual pulse. Morgan is a native of Philadelphia\, Pennsylvania where he also earned his MFA and formal education and currently resides in Minneapolis\, MN where he is a Professor of Art Practice at the University of Minnesota. \nStuart Nielsen Statement \nPaintings are the intersection of many elements\, factors\, signals\, and ingredients. Those ingredients include history and mystery\, patterns and puzzles. The painting process seesaws between systems and suspicions\, addition and subtraction. In the single work in this exhibition\, Strada (2015)\, layers of grids are employed to construct a pattern/image. This matrix contains a luminous array and configuration of spectral and radiant color. In viewing\, color registers an emotional response\, conscious curiosity and links us to the infinite cosmic regions. Paintings are always about discovery. \nStuart Nielsen Biography \nTrained as a painter Stuart Nielsen holds a BFA (1970) from the University of Minnesota. He has exhibited widely for over 50 years and his paintings are in many private\, corporate\, and public collections. He has also completed some 20 commissioned sculptures for public spaces and served on design teams for urban design projects. He received fellowships from the Minnesota State Arts Board and the Bush Foundation. Teaching includes Minneapolis College of Art and Design and the University of Minnesota. He has served on the Minneapolis Arts Commission and the boards of Artspace\, Northern Clay Center and Highpoint Center for Printmaking. \nHoward Oransky Statement \nThere is an elegant\, peaceful space in my imagination\, full of balance and possibility. It is the edge where pictorial structure and improvisation share the same space at the same time. It is the moment when the work is leading me and I am ready to follow. \nHoward Oransky Biography \nHoward Oransky was born and grew up in Los Angeles\, surrounded by the work of artists his parents knew and admired\, such as Leopoldo Mendez and Arnie Mesches. He completed a BA in painting at California State University\, Northridge in 1981 and an MFA in painting at CalArts in 1984\, where he was mentored by John Baldessari. His studio is at Traffic Zone Center for Visual Art and he is a founding member of Form + Content Gallery in Minneapolis. Since 2011 he has been director of the Katherine E. Nash Gallery at the University of Minnesota. \nMay 16\, – June 22\, 2019 \nOpening reception: Saturday\, May 18\, 8:00 – 10:00 PM

SUMMARY:Some Pages for a Book of Hours Opening Reception - Form+Content Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Form+Content Gallery presents Some Pages for A Book of Hours\, an exhibition of image and text\, artist’s books and photographs that explores and honors the final years of four women in her life: her mother\, cousin and two friends. \nIn the sixteen months between her father’s death and that of her mother\, Joyce Lyon was privileged to spend more time with her mother than she had during her previous adult life.  Their time together was full of challenge as well as sweetness and Lyon has no hesitation in naming it blessed. \nDrawing upon journal entries\, memory and photographs\, she has created twenty 22”x17” broadsides displayed on the wall that chronicle the experiences of their time together.  The work is bittersweet—they both knew where the path led— but ultimately joyful\, an affirmation of bravery and the possibilities of human connection. \nThe development of Some Pages for a Book of Hours was influenced by an exhibition at the Morgan Library in New York on the medieval Book of Hours: visually rich prayer books whose radically democratic structure\, including perpetual calendar\, prayers for each time of day and the Office for the Dead\, allowed the owner to worship independently.  In a secular manner\, Lyon applies the rhythms of attention and praise to the time she spent with her mother. \nThe works in this exhibition are created from a personal perspective but the hope is that the experiences chronicled will allow others to consider their own stories\, to find points of connection and difference\, and to be moved to celebrate our human potential. \nJoyce Lyon is an artist\, teacher and curator whose work focuses on memory and place.  She is represented in public and private collections internationally.  In Minneapolis she exhibits at Groveland and Form + Content Gallery.  She has received grants from the Minnesota State Arts Board\, Jerome Foundation and Minnesota Center for Book Arts and was a founding member of WARM: Women’s Art Resources of Minnesota.  She is Professor emerita at the University of Minnesota. \nSeptember 06 – October 13\, 2018 \nOpening reception:  Saturday\, September 8\, 6:00 – 8:30 PM
