The Brilliant Line, Emily Peters, Evelyn Lincoln, Andrew S. Raftery

Books

Renaissance engravings are objects of exquisite beauty and incomparable intricacy that are composed entirely of lines. Artists began using this intaglio process in Europe as early as 1430. This captivating catalogue focuses on the height of the medium, from 1480 to 1650, when engravers made dramatic and rapid visual changes to engraving technique as they responded to the demands of reproducing artworks in other media. The Brilliant Line follows these visual transformations and offers new insight into the special inventiveness and technical virtuosity of Renaissance and Baroque (Early Modern) engravers. The three essays discuss how engraving’s restrictive materials and the …

Of Vapor Beneath The Evening Star, Sarah Barnard Blitz

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

The things we see are but shadows of reality. We are in a cave, but if we tum around we can see the fire that casts the shadows we call reality. We can take the difficult journey to see the beauty and magic that is our true world. Stories such as this, Plato's allegory of the cave in The Republic, have taught for centuries that there is more to our world than we initially know. Allegory and metaphor can help us begin to understand the shadows for what they are. II is in our hearts and our imaginations that we …

Dysfunctionation, Samuel B. Rapien

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

We live in a society that perpetuates, if not celebrates, dysfunctional attitudes. The intention of my work is to point out the follies, hypocrisy, and failings of our society. With my ink drawings, I use a combination of humor and rage to mirror a grotesquely exaggerated reflection of my vexed world view filtered through uncanny and surreal imagery. I am a satirist; I use sarcasm, irony, and expressions of anger to criticize social standards, at times with humor, but always with a certain amount of cynicism. With subjects ranging from artifice, historical and modern sexuality, our obsession with violence, inequality, …

Bringing Spiritual Symbolism To A Material Plane, Seth Green

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

I am a ceramic vessel maker who has developed a passion for the aesthetic, historical and technical aspects of ceramics, merging the three in my work. Identifying the objects I make as vessels rather than pots (the contemporary term for the word pottery) allows me to clarify where they belong in the world and my intentions for their function. My vessels included in this exhibition primarily focus on spiritual symbolism rather than the traditional daily uses of pottery. My work is influenced by spiritually symbolic elements used in the creation of religious architecture. Specific inspirations include the temples, palaces and …

Catch Shadow, Hold Light, Autumn Cipala

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

I aspire to make forms that quietly engage the viewer, inspire curiosity, and invite a sense of discovery. These are objects that ask one to slow down, and to notice the subtleties of form, surface, and function. My intention is for these vessels to be used mindfully. An assuredness of form is essential to this work. Curves, volume and proportion are balanced with restraint. I prefer complex yet clean forms that are enhanced by soft translucent glazes. Consideration of balance continues as pattern is balanced with unadorned surface, cool color with warm, cup with saucer. I am attracted to glazes …

View Of The Void, John E. Carrasco

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

Memories form, memories fade, and memories are lost. Small cavities of emptiness replace memories that have drifted away, where they then spread like thin cracks on the surface and diverge to form a void. Within the hollows of these voids, perplexities in mental and physical conditions emerge. Such perplexities of the void have captured my attention. With this body of Sculpture, defining and embodying the mental void within a physical presence is my ultimate goal. Methods have been instituted to aid in the creation and definition of the nonentity. Skins are developed to encase a void, enabling one to see …

From Particles To Planets: Exploring The Physical In Art, Susan J. Soriente

Sheldon Museum of Art: Catalogs and Publications

Our physical reality-its span, depth and breadth; from microcosm to macrocosm, from particle to planet-may be experienced through the eye of the artist as we contemplate a work of art.

It is clear that the physical is a primary element of art, but that statement does not encompass the multitude of ways the physical may be expressed. From antiquity, artists have used their art to encapsulate and express the world, or to change, invent and portray the physical to express their view of reality.

Line, form, color, texture and composition produce a visual experience of a subject that delineates and …

Evolving Eden, Sharon L. Kennedy

Sheldon Museum of Art: Catalogs and Publications

Eden is an idealized place where one experiences happiness, harmony and a sense of timelessness. While some believe this can only be experienced after death, others are convinced that the only Eden is the one we currently inhabit and therefore good stewardship is needed in order to sustain it. Photographers have historically captured our evolving planet and have brought to light its beauty as well as its destruction due to human intervention.

The artists in Evolving Eden address the much-discussed topic of the environment and our relationship with our surroundings, using three distinct approaches. While Arno Rafael Minkkinen's spiritual images …

The Unknown Blakelock, Sharon L. Kennedy

Sheldon Museum of Art: Catalogs and Publications

Understanding the work of nineteenth-century American painter Ralph Albert Blakelock (1847-1919) has proven elusive despite several exhibitions and publications about his life and art. As Sheldon Director Emeritus, author, and founder of the Nebraska Blakelock Inventory Project Norman Geske observes, "Essentially self-taught, Blakelock proceeded with an imagination that was singularly free of any allegiance to established procedures, allowing him ... to address subjects as diverse as Jamaica, upper Manhattan Island, and the ocean shore - to find new solutions to differing pictorial problems. In some instances, it is clear he was cognizant of stylistic innovations in the higher artistic community. …

World War Ii Prisoner Of War Visual Art : Investigating Its Significance In Contemporary Society, Eileen Whitehead

Theses : Honours

This study examines closely some of the artworks produced by Howard Taylor, Ronald Searle and Ludwig Hirschfeld Mack while they were interned as prisoners of war (POWs) during World War II (WWII). It examines the significance of their POW and post-war artworks in the context of their experiences in WWII, the institutional representation of WWII POW art generally and, more broadly, the context in which wars shape the creative output of imprisoned soldiers and civilians. It further examines how POW artwork has influenced the choice of subject matter for some contemporary artists. I discuss a certain invisibility of POW artwork …

A Collection Of Micrographs: Where Science And Art Meet, Vuk Uskoković

Pharmacy Faculty Articles and Research

Micrographs obtained using different instrumental techniques are presented with the purpose of demonstrating their artistic qualities. The quality of uniformity currently dominates the aesthetic assessment in scientific practice and is discussed in relation to the classical appreciation of the interplay between symmetry and asymmetry in arts. It is argued that scientific and artistic qualities have converged and inspired each other throughout millennia. With scientific discoveries and inventions enriching the world of communication, broadening the space for artistic creativity and making artistic products more accessible than ever, science inevitably influences artistic creativity. On the other hand, the importance of aesthetic principles …
