Artists Respond to Environmental Concerns
Water shortages, air pollution, dying ecosystems and other news stories bring environmental issues to our attention daily. Artists share these concerns and often use their artwork to address these topics. The Women’s Caucus for Art of Georgia (WCAGA) will bring five such artists together for a day of discussion titled The Artist and the Environment at the Ferst Center for the Arts on the Georgia Tech campus in Atlanta on Sunday, March 9, 1-6 pm. The program is free and open to the public.
The Artist and the Environment coincides with Earth: a Microcosm, a WCA juried exhibition on display March 7-30 in the galleries of the Ferst Center. The exhibit features work by 24 WCA members from Georgia, North Carolina, Alabama, and Tennessee selected by the program’s keynote speaker Mara Adamitz Scrupe. There will be an opening reception for the artists on Friday, March 7, 6-9 pm. The exhibition will be open for viewing from 1 – 2 pm before the March 9 program.
Mara Adamitz Scrupe, Chair of the Art Department at Columbus State University in Columbus, GA will open the program at 2 pm. Scrupe is an environmental artist working with renewable energy systems and native plants in the creation of projects for museums, arboretums, landscapes, and public spaces. Recent projects include commissions for I Bienal Internacional de Arts al Aire Libre (Venezuela), Fota Arboretum (Ireland), Europos Parkas Open Air Museum (Lithuania), Grand Arts, Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum, The Johns Hopkins University, Harvard University School of Landscape Architecture, and the Savannah College of Art and Design.
Scrupe’s talk will be followed by presentations by five other southeastern environmental artists: Linda Armstrong (Atlanta, GA), Norma Bradley (Asheville, NC), Bryant Holsenbeck (Durham, NC) and Pandra Williams (Atlanta, GA). A subsequent panel discussion will further explore issues of ecology and aesthetics.
Sculptor Linda Armstrong is Program Director for the Emory College Visual Arts Program and has received numerous fellowships, grants, and residencies including the Caversham Centre for Artists & Writers (Balgowan, South Africa), the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts, the Hambidge Center for the Creative Arts & Sciences, the Georgia Council for the Arts and the Southern Arts Federation/National Endowment for the Arts. Collecting Excursions, her upcoming exhibition at Emory “will explore the evocative qualities of specimens and images gathered from disparate locales – Georgia and South Africa – through a sculptural installation that intertwines and highlights aspects of both places and gives the viewer pause to consider the oneness of our planet.”
Norma Bradley is a fiber artist and landscape architect who creates collaborative “earth quilts” – site specific gardens – for schools, community centers, hospitals, group homes and public sites. Her visiting artist residencies, projects and installations have been supported by state and federal grants, arts councils, local agencies and industry. Bradley states: “Quilts tell the stories of our lives through their shapes, colors and textures. They hold a history of their makers as well as the people who care for them. They become sacred treasures. Gardens are about hope and the creation of sacred space. Both help us to go beyond the ordinary moments and to enter into a world of deeper meaning and beauty. They help us connect with a body of knowledge, with ourselves and with other people.”
Bryant Holsenbeck began her arts career as a basket maker and has evolved into an environmental artist who makes large-scale installations that document the waste stream of our society. She has shown and taught throughout the United States, and received two North Carolina Arts Council Fellowships, a Project Grant and an NEA Arts and Learning Grant. Her installation River of Caps (2004) was a 105 ft. fluid design of bottle caps and jar lids collected over a period of 10 years, made in collaboration with 85 high school students in Winston-Salem, NC. A community artist who likes to work with groups of people using the “stuff” of our society, Holsenbeck is currently working on WHAT DO KIDS CARE ABOUT? A Labyrinth of Shoes with Souls Attached.
Pandra Williams studied art, sculpture and ceramics at the Atlanta College of Art, Georgia State University, the New School of Social Research, Kansas City Art Institute, and New York School of Visual Arts. A solo show of her ceramic sculpture is on display through February 23 at Kiang Gallery in Atlanta. She is currently working on Return of the Native Garden at Hurt Park in Downtown Atlanta, part of Urban Interventions sponsored by The Ernest G. Welch Gallery, Georgia State University. “An area within the park will test the hypothesis that abandoned brownfields surrounding warehouses on the Beltline can be revitalized with a native succession garden…The design and plant media will build upon the idea of growth and change over time.“ This project began fall 2007 and will be celebrated on the Spring Solstice, March 24, 2008.
