mjazzg Posted August 1, 2021 Report Share Posted August 1, 2021 Knocked out today by the Sophie Taeuber-Arp currently at Tate Modern. What a fantastically adept artist she was across so many disciplines. Tate Modern has done good work recently highlighting significant female artists who have often been overshadowed by their husbands and probably because of their multi-disciplinary approach to the 'Applied Arts' - Sonia Delauney, Anni Albers and now this show. each one a revelatory exhibition in its own right. And yesterday, it was good to acquaint myself with the paintings of Jennifer Packer on our annual trip to see the Serpentine's Summer Pavilion.

Unfortunately, here I don't have access to this tempting fare, but I did go to Liverpool a month ago to see this year's John Moores Exhibition which has been the starting point for so many British painters. My first visit was in 1972 when Euan Uglow won the prize. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjazzg Posted November 21, 2021 Report Share Posted November 21, 2021 (edited) Noguchi at The Barbican Art Gallery. Learnt a lot Late Constable at The Royal Academy. Failed in its stated attempt to recast Constable as a modern master as far as I could see. Some great paintings and sketches nonetheless Edited November 21, 2021 by mjazzg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't spend more than two uninterrupted hours in a show, otherwise I begin to lose concentration and interest...We just covered the selections from the permanent collection on the 7th floor. https://whitney.org/exhibitions/collection-1900-to-1965 My teenager son was most impressed with the show of Calder's puppets and the accompanying film. I liked seeing Marsden Hartley's pictures. He could do so much on a small canvas!  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ejp626 Posted November 23, 2023 Report Share Posted November 23, 2023 I made the trip out to Montreal to catch the Marisol retrospective. It's in Montreal through Jan. https://www.mbam.qc.ca/en/exhibitions/marisol/ Then I think it goes to Toledo. It ends up in Buffalo (the Albright-Knox actually organized this exhibit) in mid 2024, and then Dallas in early 2025. I'll likely head over to Buffalo as there are minor variations in what is on view, depending on each venue. However, I think if you go to either Montreal/Toledo and either Dallas/Buffalo you see all the pieces, certainly the all the major sculptures.

BFrank Posted November 24, 2023 Report Share Posted November 24, 2023 The last big one was probably Sargent in Spain at the Legion of Honor Museum here in SF. Going to NYC in a few weeks and will see a lot of things at the Met, MOMA, and ICP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjazzg Posted November 24, 2023 Report Share Posted November 24, 2023 Two rooms of Joan Mitchell at Tate Modern, just fantastic. We need a major show of her works over here. Before, Marina Abromavic major chronological retrospective at Royal Academy. For me an exhibition of two halves, the first half very impactful. The second half, a lot less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidewinder Posted November 24, 2023 Report Share Posted November 24, 2023 Not a full exhibition per se but delighted recently to enjoy the works by Velazquez, Titian, Rubens, Tintoretto and Brueghel Jr at Kingston Lacy House, Dorset, UK.

mikeweil Posted November 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2023 (edited) Yesterday, Lyonel Feininger retrospective exhibition, Schirn Kunsthalle Frankfurt am Main. The first time a complete overview is presented, not just his famous paintings of architecture, but also early carricatures, children's toys, drawings, photographs. Highly recommended. Very good biographical accounts. https://www.schirn.de/ausstellungen/2023/lyonel_feininger/ My favourite painting from the exhibition.

clifford_thornton Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 The Kehinde Wiley show in Houston and the Jaune Quick-To-See Smith show in Fort Worth are both very much worth seeing right now. I was not expecting to be as blown away by the Wiley as I was. Quick-To-See Smith is incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjazzg Posted January 8 Report Share Posted January 8 (edited) I was looking at Quick-To-See Smith's work online yesterday after a couple of mentions here. Looks very interesting. Can't see any of it travelling here but we can live in hope. Wiley we have had some Edited January 8 by mjazzg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
