Radiant Hall Studios and The Mattress factory Museum are proud to present an evening
talk with Chicago-based curator Mary Jane Jacob at the Energy Innovation Center
on Friday October 16<sup>th</sup> 6PM. Jacob is a curator, writer, and educator who
shifted her workplace from the museum to the street to critically engage the
discourse around public space. In Mary Jane Jacob’s <i>Culture in Action</i> project (1991-1993) artists worked in partnership
with communities to explore the changing nature of public art. Jacob's current
curatorial focus is on Chicago social practice. Admission is FREE.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

The Conference ran from July 22-24, 2015 at Imperial College London. Read the abstract from Sean's presentation here, and learn about the impact Alloy Pittsburgh is making on the world beyond the Monongahela shores. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #999999; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"><br /></span></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"><i>From Exhibition to Institution: Expanding Regional Vibrancy in Pittsburgh’s Monongahela River Valley</i></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse;">Many leading city planners and economists attest to the power of art as a force for promoting social progress and economic vitality. When part of a wider initiative, community-driven arts programming can increase local pride, build strong relationships and encourage synergistic partnerships that contribute to meeting community needs. In 2013 Pittsburgh based artists Sean Derry and Chris McGinnis partnered with the Rivers of Steel Heritage Area to produce Alloy Pittsburgh, a site-based project motivated by a sincere belief in the capacity of art to contribute to the revitalization of Pittsburgh Monongahela River Valley. The success of their inaugural project has enabled Derry and McGinnis to work with the Rivers of Steel Heritage Corporation on the development of a comprehensive arts programming initiative for the entire eight-county Rivers of Steel Heritage Area. Derry and McGinnis formalized their partnership with the Rivers of Steel under the new heading Alloy Arts, and embarked on a multi-faceted effort to build a sustainable arts program. This presentation will chronicle the creation of Alloy Arts and the institutions experiences transitioning from a single community art project to a multi-faceted arts initiative offering contemporary art experiences throughout the Monongahela River Valley.</span></span><br />

Exploration exists at the heart of the Alloy Pittsburgh on-site residency at Carrie Furnace and it happens through many varied experiences. During the past month the Alloy artists spent time forging pathways through the rich past and deep history of the built environment that they will adopt as their exhibition space in the months to come. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Join us for a free artist lecture led by Ann T. Rosenthal!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">May 29th, 2015. 5:00-7:00pm</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Free and Open to the Public</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Ann Rosenthal will discuss critical analyses of western culture's disconnect from non-human nature and how environmental art has addressed the nature/culture split historically and in contemporary ecoart.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Ann Rosenthal brings to communities 30 years experience as an artist, educator, and writer. Her art installations address the local manifestation of global concerns, including climate change, food safety, and nuclear waste. Her work has been shown at the Andy Warhol Museum and the Mattress Factory in Pittsburgh; Exit Art and the Hudson River Museum in New York; the Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education in Philadelphia; and Kunsthaus Kaufbeuren in Germany. For 2014, Ms. Rosenthal and collaborator Steffi Domike exhibited Moving Targets in the eastern U.S. This interdisciplinary art installation linked the artists’ shared cultural heritage and family migrations to the story of the American passenger pigeon for the centenary of the bird’s extinction (1914). Throughout 2014, Ms. Rosenthal led a coalition of environmental and arts institutions in Pittsburgh to promote a series of regional events for this anniversary.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Ms. Rosenthal’s essays and work on eco/community art have been published in several journals and anthologies, most recently in Regenerative Infrastructures (New York: Prestel, 2013); “Atomic Legacy Art” in the Women Environmental Artists Directory Magazine (September 2012) and the online, peer-reviewed Ecopsychology Journal (Winter 2012). </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">She teaches foundations, art history, and environmental art courses in the region, and has developed several ecoart college-level courses, including an online graduate course, Introduction to Eco/Community Art, for Plymouth State University in New Hampshire. Ms. Rosenthal received her MFA from Carnegie Mellon University in 1999. She owns an industrial building in Pittsburgh where she directs LOCUS – a creative commons where art, community and ecology meet.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #073763;">An architect and instructor by profession (Liadis) and a published novelist and visual artist (Ivec),we come from unique arts backgrounds and share an interest in drawing, music, and a diversity of forms. Realizing a mutual interest in the fantastic and in the imagining of landscape, we began meeting and elaborating exquisite corpse drawings of buildings and cities. Our practice has expanded and now involves a horde of exercises with which we brainstorm architecture and then imagine the mental life and society of the occupants. For example, we improvise and narrate scenarios which the other artist must then sketch concurrently. </span></i></span></div>

<div dir="ltr" style="margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
I rely upon many mediums - writing, illustration, and voice - in an attempt to make and explain new worlds in which I can challenge myself and my own contemporary environment. I have promoted this vision via traditional writing and have also used images to support text or to inspire an improvised, oral telling of a fable.</div>

</b></span><span style="border-collapse: collapse;"><b style="font-weight: normal;"><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Nick G Liadis is an Architectural Designer and Artist living in the Lawrenceville neighborhood of Pittsburgh, though also has strong connections to Detroit, MI.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> He has balanced practicing and teaching architecture with his own art making and consulting work. The time split between professional, academic, and studio environments has been quite illuminating. That successful combination affords tremendous perspective of the architecture discipline, continually prodding the relationship between architecture and art.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Much of Nick's work is made through a variety of media including architecture, space, and music. Drawing, design, and installation art extend that work as well. For Nick, having artistic skills in architecture challenges traditional modes of space making. This provides Nick with the questions and ideas that make architecture a multi-sensory experience through the presence of art. Some of Nick's most recent work involves music to highlight dimensions of space, applying aspects of notation, resonance, balance, noise, and echo. </span></div>
</b></span><span style="border-collapse: collapse;"><b style="font-weight: normal;"><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Cross-disciplinary inquiry is the foundation to Nick's artistic skills. It is what constitutes the connections between, for example, music and architecture. Approaching architecture in this way means not just knowing about music, but being the musician as you do the architecture. That simple distinction allows for a more robust cross-disciplinary investigation, where each subject profoundly affects the other. Nick is excited by moments where an idea can be both musical and architectural, crossing seemingly distinct art disciplines. </span></div>
</b></span><span style="border-collapse: collapse;"><b style="font-weight: normal;"><div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.2; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Through education, exceptional practice, and interdisciplinary art collaboration, Nick has worked in Pittsburgh at Desmone Architects, Springboard Design, Studio for Spatial Practice, Carnegie Mellon University, The Andy Warhol Museum, Mattress Factory Museum, Children's Museum of Pittsburgh, and Hatch Arts Collective. He is also a founding principal of Arscott + Liadis Collaborative LLC, a design and art making studio in the Polish Hill neighborhood of Pittsburgh. He has his Master of Architecture degree from the University of Detroit Mercy.</span></div>

Recently I have been occupied attempting to encapsulate the following three aspects of my practice into coherent wholes: i) the attention and priority of material as directing and providing the foundation for the sense of the work (rather than necessarily functioning as ancillary to the piece, but being integrated into it as base); ii) the construction or staging of a process so that its material production and/or its sense folds back on itself; iii) as an investigation into the relation between interiority and exteriority as expressed at the site of an interstice or membrane. </span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #535353;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I am a visual artist. I
create large-scale sculptures and installations. My work assesses and
investigates current concerns, conflicts and social issues. My practice is
diverse in media- the theme, material, process and approach vary but are united
conceptually and tactically reflecting a particular idea. The process to begin
with is personal and intuitive, however, it becomes premeditated and directed
towards a specific outcome based on how the materials transform and transition.
Playing with materials is a part of my ongoing investigation.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #535353;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">My works attempt at
transforming the context of diverse commonplace materials and imbues it with
new meaning. The installations don’t intend to proclaim a particular position,
however, they create opportunities for heightened perception to confront issues
of morality, chaos and consumerism opening doors for introspection and
dialogue. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #535353;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The concept of community
involvement has become an important aspect in developing and evolving my
installations. I became sensitized to the “excesses” of consumerism after a
life threatening allergic reaction to a prescribed medication. This event was a
catalyst in changing the foundation materials for my works. I started using
discarded materials to create off-balance sculptures that appear in a state of
decay. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #535353;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The interplay between
3-dimensional and 2-dimensional forms is central to my work. My sculptures are
like drawings; they are contained autonomous objects, visualizing one small
part of a larger system.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #535353;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I am invested through my
sculptures in studying spaces through castings, drawings, tracing and imprints that
capture the traces of past life on scuffed surfaces. The marks, the grime, and
the residue that linger on the finished pieces are archetypical and suggest a
shared sense of history. My works tell the story of the space through the
impressions left of the original object on the plaster cast or the paper. They
challenge the viewers to reminiscence identities and the history of the
structures.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; font-size: 16pt; font-weight: bold;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Neon vectors and bifurcations direct the eye and disrupt the known interior and exterior landscape. Exaggerated angles and false horizons force a new perspective and understanding of the body in space and scale. The color of this thread at first appears to be not from nature -- It is cautionary, manufactured, synthetic. Contemplation reveals its connection to the natural world in extreme conditions, sun, fire, and molten minerals. </span></span><br />

My work explores the relationship between sound, image, object and place. I create sound compositions from foley and field recordings. I complement these arrangements with still photography, three-dimensional objects and motion pictures. My art process has led me through city streets and urban parks, abandoned factories and railroad tracks, ambient nights and bustling days. My audiovisual works of art are showcased in theaters, public spaces and galleries. I use an additional element of live performance to share the creative process with audiences, improvise and collaborate with fellow artists.</span></b></span></span></div>

If you are unfamiliar, take some time now to learn about Rose's site specific works!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><b>Name</b>: Rose Clancy</span><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span><span style="color: #666666;"><b>Hometown</b>: Pittsburgh, PA</span><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span><span style="color: #666666;"><b>Current Location/ Neighborhood</b>: Ingram</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span><span style="color: #666666;"><b>Influential or Favorite Regional Artist</b>: There are too many regional artists who’s work I respect to list one as a favorite. I am drawn to individual and collaborative efforts that use a variety of mediums and genres, outside-the-box thinking, and the element of community engagement in their work.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span><span style="color: #666666;"><b>Artist Statement</b>:</span><span style="color: #666666;">I am an interdisciplinary artist working on site-specific installations, found object sculptures, community engaged projects, and process-based performances that comment on the abuses human beings inflict upon one another and on the the natural environment they live in. My current body of work is focused on the relationship between neglect and nurturing, and explores internal and external transformations that occur within the process of healing and recovery. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;">As a site-specific installation artist, I am drawn to environments that hold an energy of active transformation – where my first response to the site, is to an awareness of the heartbeat lying beneath the surface of the site’s brokenness and decay. </span><span style="color: #666666;">My work is informed by the site’s history, its present condition, and the potential for its transformed future. I am committed to the practice of creative re-use and prefer to use materials of little or no value to others. I am often physically present in my work to give the public audience an opportunity to become involved in the work on a personal level, and to create a sense of connectedness with the community around the site.</span></span><br />

These moments can be as simple as a kiss or as complex as selecting a career, but share that special ability to change ones life. After taking note of these moments, I recreate them using an artistic language that has been developing with me since a very young age. This artistic language uses the kinetic actions of machines to create metaphors and building techniques learned from childhood toys.</span></span></span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 22px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span style="color: #666666;">Growing up in a post-industrial world inspires the foundation to my work. My post-industrial world is found outside of Pittsburgh in the town of Charleroi, PA. This small town is full of decaying machinery, architecture, and industry, left behind from the great mills that once supported it. With family heritage connecting me to the steel mills of Pittsburgh, I have always felt passionate when working with the same tools, processes, and materials as past generations once did.</span></span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">Creating sculptural machines by repurposing materials, techniques, and tools from past generations forms a contemporary aesthetic. This communicates interpersonal moments through human interaction and is the intent for each sculpture I create.</span></div>

Much of the vocabulary associated with my painting process is utilized in the animation. It combines photographic imagery from the natural world, and the built environment along with invented imagery that mimics the natural world; all of which has been manipulated digitally. So, therefore the product becomes an amalgamation of the natural world and cultural production. Because the imagery has been manipulated and filtered through various software tools, ultimately it all becomes synthetic. At times it becomes difficult to distinguish the origins of the various elements and therefore more difficult to easily classify. The parts have a certain consistency but are modularized and repackaged in variety of iterations these transformations provide a formal and conceptual link from one passage to another blurring the boundary between nature and what is human made. </span></span></div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /><span style="font-size: small;">The animations operate within five architectural like facades. These facades help create a structured framework for what takes place behind, in front, or through this edifice. Also, the facades have skins attached to them, which reinforces the notion of the natural and built world and establishes a stationary environment for the moving parts. I created a portion of the animated sections with nonrepresentational linear elements, interested mainly in moving lines, in combination with the rhythmic pattern of bird flight, figure eights, ovals and circles. By building a variety of animated parts I then work at combining, looping and overlaying these lyrical components by sequencing these passages into a hypnotic rhythm with the intent of mimicking the ebb and flow of nature. </span></span></div>

Aluminum rubbings, Stacked auto glass, salt dough bricks, welded steel, and the burial of a golden casket, serve as metaphors in my work that attempt to preserve vitality and transform postindustrial areas.

Some of them but by no means all of them are Natalie Settles, Ivette Spradlin, Vicky Clark, Delanie Jenkins, Barbara Weissberger, Stephanie Armbruster, Becky Slemmons, Anika Hirt, JoAnna Commandaros, Anna Divinsky, Elise Rugolo, Staycee Pear</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">l, Casey Droege. I could go on and on. Pittsburgh is full of incredible women doing amazing things.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;"><br /></span><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">Artist Statement: </span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">Perception and personal observation provide the foundation for my most recent “landscape series,” which consists of mixed-media prints and paintings based on recreating the observed landscape through layers of overlapping abstract shapes. Grounded in pastoral midwestern topography, the series has grown to include rural sites of Western Pennsylvania, Maryland, Tennessee, and West Virginia. As I travel from one location to another I photograph the landscapes that capture my interest. In general I am intrigued by landscapes that have an ambiguous sense of space, scale, distance and depth. Through my sketches, Photoshop experimentation, and color choices, I translate the landscapes into basic shapes and forms creating a flat, geometric interpretation of the original photograph. The flexibility of printmaking fosters this investigation; through multiple plate etchings and screenprinting I can build an image with a dozen or more layers in one piece. I am interested in the tension between the flat colors I choose and the sense of space and perspective created by the abstracted forms.</span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #666666; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Two other elements also come into play - the background pattern and the choice of a title of each series. The backgrounds have evolved from the first series in 2011 which were based on either aesthetic preferences or patterns extracted or documented at actual locations (a grate in Pittsburgh, fragments from Missouri and Oklahoma). For the most recent backgrounds I am interested in the mathematical diagram of a hepteract, which represents three-dimensional images of a seven cube. For some, this pattern may be seen as purely decorative, but to others (especially mathematicians) the patterns reveal complex geometric representations of volume and space. Upon seeing the hepteract and other hypercubes, it became clear to me that these diagrams added another layer of perception to my landscapes. The carefully selected titles for this series have become an essential part of my process, as I want the text to have some specific, if non-literal, reference to the locations I am depicting. Recalling the comment of a friend on a particular sunrise he saw in Wisconsin - “This sunrise is like being in love” – I use his poetic response as an evocative title in combination with the specific to create an entry point for the abstracted images.</span><br />
