Round Two -- The de Young presents Van Gogh, Gauguin, Cézanne and Beyond: Post-Impressionist Masterpieces from the Musée d’Orsay, Sept 25, 2010 - Jan 18, 2011 |
|||||
|
Soon at the de Young, fresh from its visit to Australia's National Gallery in Canberra, will be the "Van Gogh, Gauguin, Cézanne and Beyond: Post-Impressionist Masterpieces from the Musée d’Orsay." Beginning in the mid to late 19th century, a loose association of painters rose in prominence, and became known as Impressionists. The name "Impressionist" comes from art critic Louis Leroy when he offered a satiric review of a painting by Claude Monet entitled Sunrise Impression (Soleil Levant). The review has been pretty much forgotten, but the term Impressionist remains, and is uttered with reverence and adoration by art lovers everywhere. |
||||
The impressionists found a way to express the world in a new way, taking their easels out of the studio to paint plein-air. With small thin visible brush strokes they captured exciting visual effects, achieving bold use of unmixed color to create intense color vibration, Their open compositions of ordinary subject matter, and depictions of the changing qualities of light, have thrilled the art loving public ever since. Flowing from Impressionism came Post-Impressionism. The term Post-Impressionism was first used by British art critic Robert Fry to describe French Art from Manet onward. The Post -Impressionists extended Impressionism. They continued using vivid color, thick applications of paint, distinctive brush strokes, and real life subjects for their compositions, but they were more inclined to emphasize geometric forms and use more unnatural color. |

George Seurat and his followers used tiny dots of color which became known as pointillism. Paul Cézanne wanted to restore a sense of order and structure, making impressionism solid and durable. He reduced shapes while maintaining the bright colors of impressionism. Camille Pissaro explored pointillism which he called scientific impressionism, but returned to a purer form of impressionism later in his career. Vincent Van Goph used vibrant swirling color to convey feeling and his state of mind. Taken as a group, the post impressionists certainly weren't a cohesive movement. As their movement proceeded, younger painters continued working geographically, exploring Fauvism and Cubism. |

Entry to Pixar's Studio in Emeryville |
Pixar: 25 Years of Animation now at the Oakland Museum Walt Disney would be proud! The creative spirit he so energetically put forth vibrantly lives in the art of a new generation of innovative animators headquartered in Emeryville. As Pixar Studios celebrate their first quarter-century, these wizards of animation dazzle us with ever evolving computerized magic, but not surprisingly, they are well rooted in the same principals which guided animators and artists of the past. Pixar: 25 Years of Animation now at the Oakland Museum exhibits its creative process, a mixture of "technology coupled with a deep commitment to nurturing creativity and imagination." The exhibition is divided into the three major elements of Pixar animation, Characters, Story, and World. |
|||
A character in a film is a vehicle. Characters move the story forward and give viewers something to hang onto. Pixar strives to create characters who are full of desire, yearnings, thoughts, and passions. When they really work well, viewers are able to see themselves in these characters. At Pixar, characterization is not just putting eyes on a car, but putting thoughts and feelings in the car's mind, or "under the hood." Three fourths of Pixar's time is spent developing stories! An original concept moves through writing a script, and then visual representations of the script are created by hand. Storyboards and story reels are then made. |
John Lasseter leads a studio tour of Pixar in Emeryville |
|||
Story reels are combinations of story board drawings along with temporary dialog and sound effects. After a long collaborative process, involving the creative input of a large cross section of the Pixar community, versions of the story are told, retold, improved, polished, and distilled. Only the essence is what gets to the screen. The goal of a Pixar film is to take viewers to places that exist only in imagination. If they were real places, a regular movie camera would do. But all kinds of worlds are possible for these animators, and they invite us to join them journeys of imagination. The worlds created by Pixar's animators are consciously and laboriously built, but bring thrills of wonderment to us viewers. |

Posted Quotations at the exhibit John Lasseter ... "Computers don't create computer animation any more than a pencil creates pencil animation. What creates computer animation are artists." Joe Ramft ... "If the story isn't there, all the breakthrough computer graphics in the world piled onto it won't matter." Tia Kratter ... "Little by little, the paintings and drawings come together on a board and start building a visual description of this world we've never seen before." Bob Pauley ... "When you see the movie, all the work that we do should disappear. You want people to believe in these characters and feel like they're in the story with them." The exhibition includes generous examples of concept drawings, story boards, and 3-D clay models of now familiar characters known worldwide. Highlighting the exhibit are two rare and amazing media experiences, the Toy Story Zoetrope, and a very widescreen presentation entitled Artscape. |

Akin to Pixar's animators at work, Remy seasons a creation in Ratatouille |
The Toy Story Zoetrope is hard to picture in words or even still pictures. One must see it to believe it. (see the KGO video above) The first thing you see is a large flat disk, about six or seven feet in diameter. Onto the disk are attached a series of dolls or character models arranged sequentially, each in a different stage of a motion. Then the disk begins turning, quickly accelerating into a whirring blur. Then movie magic happens! The lights go out and a strobe light goes on, and in an instant, the whirring blur becomes full motion animation. You see each figure , as if they are standing perfectly still, but in a smooth steady motion. It is magic before your eyes. The lights go back on, and the animated motion returns to a whirring blur, and the observer is left with an expression of wondered disbelief. It is common for people to remain to watch the sequence several times, amazed at how the human eye can be fooled. They want to see the magic again. Artscape is a very very widescreen video presentation shot onto a screen with three coordinated video projectors. It shows Pixar story boards coming to life, with a camera lens zooming into frames of the storyboard allowing sketched character ideas come to full life. Without a single word of narration, this film conveys the idea |
|||
of process, how an idea builds to a concept, and how the concept is refined and moves toward realization. In magical sweeps of motion, line drawings gain color, motion and sophistication, and return again to their original lines. What is amazing is that children viewing this presentation get it. They thrilled as their favorite characters came to life. The film ends with Pixar's ever present emblematic and inquisitive lamp observing a rolling ball of yarn -- dated John Lasseter, 1986. Pixar: 25 years of Animation is a tribute to the artistic roots of animation, how artists use their tools to create stories, characters, and worlds which speak to us in ways accessible in no other way. Not surprisingly, there were many parallels to be found with the Walt Disney Family Museum, which shows the achievements and processes used by an earlier generation of animation pioneers. We suggest you see both, and celebrate the growth of this wonderful art form! |

Mary DeNeale Morgan 1868-1948 |
Marion Kavanagh Wachtel 1870-1954 |
|
These three "superbly independent" women were indeed gifted artists, but the gender biased times in which they lived slighted them of the notoriety they deserved. St. Mary's Hearst Museum is pleased to celebrate their artistry, giving their work some well deserved recognition. Annie Harmon 1855-1930 was born into an affluent family who made their fortune in the lumber industry. She grew up exposed to culture, and never had to worry about making a living or finding a financially |

Annie Harmon Eucalyptus Menlo Park | suitable gentleman to marry for her financial security. Her brother married the daughter of famed artist William Keith. Previously, Annie studied painting with William Keith, and although she maintained her independent artistic identity, she considered William Keith her mentor. She is featured in some of the photographs of William Keith's studio along with other women artists. Keith was kind to women artists, providing them a congenial atmosphere to create their art. During William Keith's final year as he endured a protracted illness, Annie Harmon wrote Keith a letter. In it, she recollected the earlier days, "We can never forget the good old studio days with our Master of Art, nor can we forget the stick that used to come flying across the Studio to make us jump and laugh when our minds were so intent on our work." |

with the San Francisco Art Association and in the Women's Building at the Chicago Columbian World's Fair of 1893. Although prolific, she lost over 400 paintings in her studio in the San Francisco Press Club Building during the 1906 earthquake. Mary DeNeale Morgan 1868-1948 attended the California School of Design in San Francisco in the late 1880's, studying with Arthur Mathews, Virgil Williams and Amedee Joullin. |

Oakland, she would often walk to the Berkeley home of William Keith and show him her sketches. At Keith's suggestion, she worked in tempera, at the time often called opaque watercolor. She developed a tonalist style, striving to achieve a softness and luminosity of the northern California landscape. |

Mary's first studio was in her family's Oakland home. There she met with other members of the Oakland Sketch Club and she would paint portraits with live models, one of which was her brother's Oakland High School classmate, Jack London. Her Oakland based studio did not suffer damage during the 1906 earthquake. Soon after the tragedy, she spent two weeks in the destroyed city sketching collapsed buildings. Her earthquake sketches are on display at the Pacific Grove Public Library. In 1907, she had her first solo exhibition at the Hahn |
Mary DeNeale Morgan Pumpkins Carmel Valley |
Gallery in Oakland. William Keith visited the exhibition and purchased one of his student's paintings of Pacific Grove. Her favorite subject on the Monterey Peninsula was its cypress trees. She was to make Carmel her home. Mary DeNeale Morgan never married. She had suitors, but chose to share her home with her mother and her sister who had become a widow, Jeannie Morgan Klenke. Mary's sister-in-law, artist Charlotte Elizabeth (Bodwell) Morgan moved to Carmel in 1923 and maintained a studio with Mary. Mary organized the Arts and Crafts Club of Carmel, teaching classes there until 1925. In 1914, she invited and hosted William Merritt Chase who came to teach for the summer. In 1927, she and her sister-in-law Charlotte organized the Carmel Art Association which still is active today. Mary's passing was fitting in that when she died in 1948, she had an unfinished work on her easel. Marion Kavanaugh Wachtel 1870 - 1954 was born in an artistic family in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Her mother was an artist, and her grandfather was a member of the Royal Academy in London. Marion studied at the Art Institute of Chicago, and later in New York with William Merritt Chase. Before returning to Milwaukee, she taught art in the Chicago public schools and at the Art Institute of Chicago. Then she had an offer from the Sante Fe Railroad which changed the direction of her life. She was offered an opportunity to paint murals for the Sante Fe Railroad ticket office in San Francisco. The railroad trip west brought Marion to Sante Fe and to the Grand Canyon, places she would return to on artistic treks later on. It is reported, but no reliable source is noted, that William Keith introduced Marion to his good friend Elmer Wachtel 1864-1929. Elmer had studied with William Keith between 1892 and 1894. |

However the pair came together, Marion and Elmer were married in Chicago in 1904, and since, her paintings were signed Marion Kavanagh Wachtel. The artistic couple maintained homes in the LA area first in the Mt. Washington area until 1921, and then in the Arroyo Seco area of Pasadena. The couple traveled throughout the Southwest, painting as they went. Marion chose to work in watercolor, perhaps so as not to compete with her husband, and became known as the best watercolorist in California with her masterful control of tone and color. |

Marion remained a tonalist, with no examples of her work even hinting at impressionism. Her favored subject, the tall eucalyptus showed Marion's preference for strong undulating line, favored by painters of Art Nouveau. She was popular on both coasts and she exhibited widely, often with her husband. After her husband's death in 1929, her interest in painting |
|
temporarily waned, but in 1931, she picked up her brushes again, painting the hillsides of the San Gabriel Mountains near her Arroyo Seco home. She died at her Pasadena home in May, 1954. |

||
Barse Miller, Waving Goodbye and Good Luck | The California Water Color Society was an important presence in American art in the 1930s through 1970s. The painters had been perfecting their abilities to document everyday life when World War II came along. Their medium was portable, cheap and immediate -- well-suited to capturing the war domestically and on the front lines. Life magazine commissioned some of the artists—among them, Barse Miller, Paul Sample, and Fletcher Martin -- to depict preparations for conflict. Now, for the first time, The Oceanside Museum of Art has collected World War II watercolors by California artists. The exhibit–Painting World War II—is curated by Glen Knowles, an art professor at Antelope Valley College in Lancaster. |

Phil Paradise, Evening on the Home Front |
Some of the artists represented are big names in California art—Milford Zornes, Millard Sheets, Phil Paradise—and many also painted in the desert, influencing the growing ranks of Smoketree Painters. Zornes, for instance, painted a fresco at the Ramona Bowl in Hemet. Painting World War II is on view through October 3rd.

Bodega Bay's Visitors of Summer, Gray Whales We have gray whales in Bodega Bay this summer. There seems to be a large population of krill in our waters, causing a group of juvenile gray whales to stay for the summer rather than head to their historic feeding grounds in Alaska. They may stay until the migration south to Mexico for the winter. So visit the coast soon and bring along a good set of peeled eyes, a long lens camera, and binoculars to Bodega Head, and take in the show. |
