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

SUMMARY:I’m Here: Art in The Service of Memory - Form+Content Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Form+Content Gallery presents I’m Here: Art in The Service of Memory\, a ‘social practice’ exhibition organized by Sandra Menefee Taylor of curated artworks made in a 10-year span of one and one half hour classes with adults who are facing some form of cognitive memory loss. \nAs described by Wikipedia “social practice is an art medium that focuses on social engagement\, inviting collaboration with individuals\, communities\, and institutions in the creation of participatory art”. \nThe work presented will be painting\, drawings and artist books created with “In A New Voice” program at the Amherst Wilder Adult Day Health Services\, St Paul\, Minnesota. The artists are individuals who are facing loss of known and familiar identities.  Most of the artworks presented will be from artists who have never depended on art as an identity\, but now find it to be a great joy to tell\, build\, problem solve\, and create a new sense of themselves as makers. \nPress Release \nJuly 06 – August 12\, 2017 \nOpening Reception\nSaturday\, July 08\, 2017\n6:00 – 8:00 pm
