Malvina Hoffman: A Sculptor's Journey August 26, 2017 - August 31, 2018
<p><strong>Malvina Hoffman: A Sculptor’s Journey</strong></p><p>August 26, 2017 – August, 2018 </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0pt;"><span style="font-family: "Calibri Light",sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">Drawing from the CRMA’s deep collection of works by 20<sup>th</sup> century sculptor Malvina Hoffman, this two-gallery exhibition explores her lengthy and varied career as a sculptor of the human form. Hoffman studied with several artists in New York before traveling to Paris in 1910 where she successfully convinced Auguste Rodin to accept her as a student. </span><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "Calibri Light",sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-ansi-language: EN;">During their lessons, he advised her "Do not be afraid of realism.”<sup> </sup></span><span style="font-family: "Calibri Light",sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;"> It was from Rodin that Hoffman learned a naturalistic, sometimes rugged approach to the form. From her early bust of her father Richard to her famous commission from the Field Museum to create their “Hall of Man,” <em>Malvina Hoffman: A Sculptor’s Journey</em> traces Hoffman’s artistic roots from her teenage creations through apprenticeship with Rodin and into her arrival as an independent and gifted artist.</span></p><p><br></p>

Art Exhibit: Figured
<p><span data-testid="event-permalink-details"><strong>Gilded Pear Gallery</strong> is pleased to present <em>Figured</em>, a three-person exhibit of works by distinguished Midwest artists -Jim Ochs, Ann Royer, and Priscilla Steele- in a summer show interpreting the human form. <br><br>What is most familiar to us is what we see in the mirror. We see our reflection in our interests, pursuits, and those we take company with. <em>Figured</em> is a selection of works by prolific artists attuned to the investigations of our self-image and continue to indulge in the construction of our form. While all three artists draw upon historical inspirations, each stray from realism to dissect the body into lines, blocks of color, and blurring features. In turn, they all similarly believe that the viewer governs the interpretation of the work based on the individual’s experience. Connected by the genuine act of art making, the presented works convey each artist’s developed styles and their persistence in imagining what it is to be human.<span> </span><br><br>With seasoned studio practices, Ochs, Royer and Steele present artworks from the archives as well as current works in "Figured". The exhibition largely features works on paper and canvas, but also features sculpture works by Royer who pulls inspiration from the caves of Lascaux. When speaking about his work, Ochs states: “I contrast things within the figure, something different opposed to it to make it more poetic and mystical, as opposed to something very classical.” In regards to achieving the elusive sense of ‘wholeness’ in her art, Steele explains, “I get close when what is personal in my own work communicates the beauty and complexity I find in life."<br><br>All three artists’ works can be found in prominent public and private collections throughout the country. Ochs received a B.A. in Painting at Colorado State University, an M.F.A in Printmaking and Drawing from the University of Iowa and established Ochs Studio-a teaching and printmaking studio in Iowa City. Steele earned a B.A. at St. Lawrence University, an M.F.A. in Printmaking from the University of Iowa and is a former art instructor at Coe College. Steele also owned Campbell Steele Gallery in Marion, IA for 26 years and recently moved to Omaha, NE. Royer earned degrees at University of Minnesota-Duluth as well as Colorado College and has a strong local connection where large scale public sculptures can be seen throughout the region.</span></p><ul><li><a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/discovery/?acontext=%7B%22source%22%3A1%2C%22action_history%22%3A%22%5B%7B%5C%22surface%5C%22%3A%5C%22page%5C%22%2C%5C%22mechanism%5C%22%3A%5C%22page_upcoming_events_card%5C%22%2C%5C%22extra_data%5C%22%3A%5B%5D%7D%2C%7B%5C%22surface%5C%22%3A%5C%22permalink%5C%22%2C%5C%22mechanism%5C%22%3A%5C%22surface%5C%22%2C%5C%22extra_data%5C%22%3A%5B%5D%7D%2C%7B%5C%22surface%5C%22%3A%5C%22permalink%5C%22%2C%5C%22mechanism%5C%22%3A%5C%22event_information%5C%22%2C%5C%22extra_data%5C%22%3A%7B%5C%22tag%5C%22%3A%5C%22Art%5C%22%7D%7D%5D%22%2C%22has_source%22%3Atrue%7D&suggestion_token=%7B%22event_categories%22%3A%5B1116111648515721%5D%7D"><br></a></li></ul> 2018-07-26 17:00:00 -0500

Setting the Table: The Art of Still Life
<p>Still life emerged as a genre of painting in the early 17th century in Europe. Including all kinds of man-made or natural objects, cut flowers, fruit, vegetables, fish, game, etc., still life paintings are highly symbolic and reflect the values of the society and artist that creates it. </p><p>This exhibition draws upon the CRMA's extensive collection of still life to present an examination of how different artists create within the historical confines of the genre. Do they push the boundaries? Do they experiment with style or subject matter? Do they reference past works? From snuffed candles, skulls and hourglasses, reminding the viewer of his or her own mortality, to lilies and glass vases alluding to the Virgin Mary's purity to lush flowers and fruits suggesting nature's annual cycles, still lifes can encapsulate whole worlds of meaning in seemingly unassuming compositions.</p><p>Image caption: </p><p>Fred Easker, <em>Milk Cans and Pears</em>, 1987, Prismacolor pencils on paper, 21 x 34 inches, gift of Kim and Sandy Colberg, 2017.120.</p><p><em><span style="font-size: 12px;">This exhibition and accompanying educational programming has been made possible by Rockwell Collins and by the CRST International Donor-Advised Fund of the Greater Cedar Rapids Community Foundation. Additional support has been provided by the Hotel-Motel Tax Fund, the Iowa Arts Council, a division of the Iowa Department of Cultural Affairs and the National Endowment for the Arts, members of the Cedar Rapids Museum of Art, and contributors to the Museum’s Annual Fund.

Teens' Mixed Mania
<p><span>Teens, drop in on Thursdays this summer to explore mixed media art-making techniques. For a couple of hours each week we’ll get together and paint, sketch, collage, stencil, and much more. Bring any materials you like to use, and we’ll provide a few other media to try out. If you’re interested in low-commitment art projects that can be as public or anonymous as you wish, even if you don’t consider yourself an artist but you have the creative ‘bug’ to produce something, this is for you. These weekly sessions are just for fun, to inspire you, and to hang out with other creatives. Mixed media can be meditative, silly, sentimental, edgy, or whatever you want it to be. Join in at any time, and attend as many sessions as you like, and invite your friends to come with you. (But no grownups allowed!) It’s free! If you have questions, contact Education Director Erin Thomas at 319-366-7503 x203 or<span> </span></span><a href="mailto:ethomas@crma.org"><span>ethomas@crma.org</span></a><span>.</span></p><p><strong>Hosts for this Event:<span> </span></strong></p><p>The Cedar Rapids Museum of Art</p><p><br></p><p><br></p> 2018-07-26 15:00:00 -0500
