R. Luke Dubois: Portraits & Landscapes, Richard Rinehart Oct 2015

R. Luke Dubois: Portraits & Landscapes, Richard Rinehart

Other Faculty Research and Publications

R. Luke DuBois handles data like origami, transforming a mundane instrumental base material into something unexpected, even beautiful. A More Perfect Uniontransforms the language from 19 million online dating profiles into an atlas of American love, and Hindsight is Always 20/20 turns each presidential State of the Union address into a linguistic eye chart.

DuBois similarly folds time into new shapes. Academycompresses 75 years of Oscar winning films into 1-minute vignettes. Vertical Music stretches 4.5 minutes of musical performance into 45 minutes of cinema, and SSBpresents a version of the Star Spangled Banner that takes 4 years …

Between Historical Truth And Story-Telling: The Twentieth-Century Fabrication Of “Artemisia”, Britiany Daugherty Apr 2015

Between Historical Truth And Story-Telling: The Twentieth-Century Fabrication Of “Artemisia”, Britiany Daugherty

School of Art, Art History, and Design: Theses and Student Creative Work

This research focuses on the twentieth century rediscovery of the seventeenth-century Italian painter Artemisia Gentileschi by scholars, novelists, playwrights, filmmakers, and artists. I argue that the various authors who told her story constructed two distinct “Artemisias,” what I identify as the “Academic Artemisia” and the “Celebrity Artemisia.” The “Academic Artemisia” results from writings by scholars focused on her 1610 Susanna and the Elders, who used approaches from formalism and connoisseurship, to feminism and iconography. The “Celebrity Artemisia” stems from popular fictions that refashioned the life and art of Artemisia according to pop culture tastes. Studying what has been said about …

Why Censor An Artist's Creativity?, Darrin Smith Apr 2015

Why Censor An Artist's Creativity?, Darrin Smith

Nebraska College Preparatory Academy: Senior Capstone Projects

Art is more than pain-ngs and figures, it’s a form of communica-on and a way to express one’s self. The censorship of ar-s-c crea-vity is the oppression of a group of people. In visual art, performance art, literature, comedy and in media are only a few examples where ar-sts have had their voice censored.

Preserving Born Digital Art : Lessons From Artists' Practice, Conor Mcgarrigle Jan 2015

Preserving Born Digital Art : Lessons From Artists' Practice, Conor Mcgarrigle

Articles

This paper looks at the complex nature of developing effective and appropriate strategies for the preservation of born digital art, in particular networked art. These issues are approached from the perspective of artist practitioners, focusing on a case study of the preservation of a net art project by the author. It is suggested that any preservation strategy begins with artists and the conservation practices that are inculcated into the very act of creation. The paper proposes that for institutional digital art conservation initiatives to be successful they must originate from a pre-existing culture of preservation within digital art communities

Distilled: The Narrative Transformed (Exhibition Catalogue), Sam Yates, Pinkney Herbert, Joseph Mella, Kim Levin, Tim Rollins, T. Michael Martin

Ewing Gallery of Art & Architecture

Inspired by place and process, Pinkney Herbert's work is a spirited exploration in color and line derived from the sights, sounds, and energies of the two principal cities – Memphis and New York – in which this body of work was created. Graffiti-like gestures scrawl atop digital prints, which are collaged and integrated into his paintings. In this 30-year survey, we follow Pinkney Herbert on his transformative journey from the narrative into abstraction.
