Painting: Students Select - 1
October 3 -16, 2011
This installation, and the one that will immediately follow in two weeks
– Part 2, includes 8 paintings from The Maslow Collection that were selected
by students in Professor Pam Parson’s painting class. Having gone through
the works in storage the students made selections based on aspects of these
works that in some way speak to the work they are currently doing in the studio,
ranging from palette and process, to composition and subject matter.
A number of the works selected for this installation have not been presented
before at Marywood, and certainly the concentration of this particular range
of works would most likely not have occurred if not for the particular student
based interest driving the selection process.
The works in the exhibition include the large canvas New York – Natural
History, 1982, by Peter Bommels; Plane Field, 1986, by Howard Buchwald; Smyra,
1983, by Valerie Jaudon; Six Steps, 1986, by Y.J. Cho; Scott Kelley’s
Shores of Perth 3, 1988; Ross Neher’s The Return from 1990; and two works
by Anthony Sorce, Warrior (Homage to Cezanne) from 1963 and Montauk, 1981-2.
Peter Bommels’ work is most generally included in with the German Neo-Expressionists
works of Georg Baselitz, Jorg Immendorff, Anselm Keifer, Markus Lupertz and
A.R. Penck. Valerie Jaudon, along with Joyce Kozloff, Miriam Schapiro, Robert
Kushner, Richard Kalina (Valerie’s husband), was instrumental in forming
the Pattern and Decoration movement in the late 70s.
Once again the installation of the works in this exhibition was carried out
by the curator with the assistance of Nicole Claase, the student intern working
with The Maslow Collection this semester.
