Intermediate Painting, in this material-oriented studio course, students will expose the possibilities beneath, within, and above the painting surface. Learn both archival and experimental strategies for making work. Together we will explore various painting techniques, materials, substrates, and color theory. The purpose of this course is to generate an atmosphere of exploration and development. In this course, the art student will be, like their art, a process of becoming. You will be developing your practice, holding open discussions, and engaging in rigorous dialogue about painting while testing strategies of production and presentation. This seminar is structured around projects of two to three-week cycles: During the three weeks cycle, students will be in-process of creating works based on project stipulations. There will be a concluded critique at the end of each third week. Constructive feedback expanded context, and critique should be viewed as a solution for growth. We will begin with painting from life, studying values, and light on objects, and introducing working with a limited palette. Materials and mediums, various substrates, and surfaces will be explored and studied. At the end of each project, there will be a critique. Presentations on stretching canvases and building panels will be introduced. Grades will be based on studio participation and the success of students following project stipulations and critiques.
Department of Art, Design, and Art History; California State University Fresno, Fresno CA Semesters: Spring 2020
Ideas of Visual Culture: Art, Media, and the Computer, Overview of ideas in visual culture and critical theory. Examines visual culture in the form of video, film, new works in visual art, the computer, and visual spectacles in contemporary culture. Visual culture examines the process by which contemporary society makes meaning from images. It looks at concepts central to the use of the images, such as ideology, power, desire, visual, spectacle, systems, the other, and the virtual. Visual culture brings methodologies from diverse fields, such as phenomenology and semiotics, to the study of visual images. In the current semester, we will use theories of visual culture to look at the video, internet art, video games, and multimedia practices while considering issues of myth, ideology, spectacle, representation, identity, and alternative media. This course is compiled of the best critical and historical work in the past decade that has both created and developed the new field. The field is still fluid and up for debate, it is an attempt to define the subject in an array of topics. Through the introductory encounter with visual theory, students will look critically at works of visual culture, engage in differing processes by which meanings are constructed through visual media, and parlay the ideas of the course into the student’s own critical writing.

Erin Schalk Solo Exhibition, through a series of photographs and corresponding poems, artist Erin Schalk examines individual and societal perceptions of disability – both visible and invisible – and poses the questions: How do ideas of ability and disability impact a person’s life experiences? How much of the ‘impairments’ or ‘deficits’ often associated with disabilities hinge upon societal preconceptions, misunderstandings, or imposed limitations?

Thresholds in Parameters of What it is to Be... Art Exhibition; January 23-February 16,2023 Traditionally, art historical systems have challenged women’s existence as artists, their contributions minimized or even erased in systems embedded in patriarchal capitalism. The underrepresentation of women in the art world has been challenged by feminists and others for over fifty years, yielding little change. This exhibition is a platform for women artists to share the work they make in this challenging world--whatever the challenges they experience.

This exhibition explores the unique challenges of being a woman/artist/caretaker, carving out time to make artwork in the spiraling work/life demands of the 21st century.

Looking Forward Looking Back: Stephanie Bradshaw. Artists create worlds surpassing time and place, past and present. Immersing ourselves in images representing an earlier time, we have a prescience of the future and the ability to navigate forwards and backward in time. Through the use of familiar imagery, these paintings explore the passage of time, and the ability to look forward as well as backward, referencing piles of laundry, chopped produce, family photography, and art historical works.

Parting Gifts: Penny Cagney & Rachael Zur. In painting, as in close relationships, acts of labor and regard are necessary. Things made by hand reveal their maker's skill, but they also reveal a human’s act of handling and manipulating materials to give a permanent form to their most valued thoughts. The thoughts that Zur and Cagney give form—through painting—are the parting gifts left by the departed. Be it the lingering presence of the deceased, felt in domestic spaces depicted in Zur’s work or a moment of connection by way of terminal lucidity in Alzheimer patients in Cagney’s work, warmth and care are imparted, and these gifts allow for a peaceful confidence as one contemplates their own mortality. These painters’ works in dialog with one another suggest that when the body is too weak and the hands can no longer reach back, other acts of affection will take place either in the last moments of life or shortly thereafter. Rachael Zur’s paintings focus on the residue of lives lived held in domestic spaces belonging to people she has loved and lost. Zur uses hands as a symbol of affection gifted from the departed to the living and hands reach from domestic objects Zur depicts, like a strange Victorian Valentine. Penny Cagney examines the phenomenon of terminal lucidity, a return of cognitively impaired persons to their former selves shortly before they die, through painting portraits of her mother’s own terminal lucidity. Cagney takes great care to depict the fragile condition of her mother’s hands, hands that care no longer care for oneself, and suggests the care that must be given from daughter to mother. For both artists, the hands are part of a narrative of care. Collectively, their works suggest that as roles are reversed upon a deathbed, the narrative of care does not end there, but is gifted again and again.

A Sheltering in Space: Student Show. I shall have to speak of things that I cannot speak. [….] I am obliged to speak. I shall never be silent. Never. -Samuel Beckett, we wanted to share the stories of our students — on how the Coronavirus, a Sheltering in Place of imposed restrictions had affected their lives and their work as students. What was the impact of their confinement? How did students work through the COVID-19 pandemic? We hope that this exhibition will offer an experience of creative communication despite our separation from campus. As we take a closer look into the loss, loneliness, and isolation of this pandemic, let us also make space for what evolved in the triumph of our perseverance. In the end, we hoped the exhibition will be a way to connect students through multiple art forms as expressions of their shared experiences during a time when staying apart from one another became the safest way.

James Luna Project. M Street Graduate Gallery, California State University of Fresno (Spring 2016)The College of Arts and Humanities at Fresno State will present American Indian artist James Luna’s exhibition, “De 5th World,” from April 6 through 29 at the Graduate Art Studios Gallery (1419 M Street) in downtown Fresno. This is the first time Luna’s iconic work will be shown in Fresno. De 5th World” reflects Luna’s reference to a new era of consciousness when humanity relearns its responsibility to the land after witnessing the destruction created by humanity’s greed. According to a Hopi prophecy, in the Fifth World, a choice must be made between destruction and reconnection. Luna’s work is a continuation of the conversation renowned First Nations artist Wanda Nanibush began with her recent exhibition, “The Fifth World.” Nanibush granted Luna permission to reference her exhibition. “De 5th World” is Luna’s response to aspects of our world that cannot yet be seen. Luna’s views have been informed by his personal social, political, and cultural struggles. Luna is a Pooyukitchum (Luiseno) California Indian who resides on the La Jolla Indian Reservation in North County, California. Luna is internationally recognized as a performance and installation artist. His works utilize found objects, audio, video, and photography. Luna became known with his exhibition “The Artifact Piece,” in which he portrayed himself as a living human artifact who questioned the institutional practice of objectifying Indigenous people as extinct artifacts and compared Indian representation to the exhibition of dinosaurs’ bones. By addressing. misrepresentation, Luna reminds the viewer that Native American communities are vibrant, living, and evolving. “In my work, I am not just criticizing a condition, I am in the condition,” Luna said. With “De 5th World,” Luna poses a new set of questions and critiques regarding humanity’s disharmony and destruction. Luna’s exhibitions have appeared throughout the continental United States, Canada, Brazil, and Europe. He was commissioned by the Smithsonian Institution to represent the newly opened National Museum of the American Indian at the notable Venice Biennale in 2005. Luna has received numerous awards, including the coveted Joan Mitchell Award for Sculpture in 2010. His works are often described as a whirling mass of pop culture icons and visions falling between Miles Davis, Abstract Impressionism, Jimi Hendrix, Tom Waits, Lucinda Williams, and D’Angelo. Gallery hours are noon to 4 p.m. Wednesdays through Saturdays.
