DESCRIPTION:Homewood Studios Covid year window show series\, Inside-Out\, presentation for June \nWHAT IF…? \nMarion Angelica \nJUNE 1-30\, 2021 \nMarion writes: In regard to my studio work\, my favorite phrase is “What if….?”  It leads me to explore and pushes me to try new ideas and new techniques.  I often start with a simple idea or inspiration but by repeatedly asking “what if….” I find new avenues and new variations that take me along exciting paths.  This phrase continually drives me to try new directions.  The work in each of the three window sections at Homewood Studios reflects three different directions I have been exploring in the past two years. \n“Sidewalk Opening” Saturday\, June 12th from 2pm to 4pm.  (Rain day\, Sunday\, June 13th same hours)  Walk up and meet the artist.  Marion will be present for conversation\, to answer question\, to hear about your responses to her work. \nNote: Pleases see our website – www.homewoodstudios.com – about road construction and parking limitations. \n

SUMMARY: Structure + Connection - Reception
DESCRIPTION:Structure + Connection \nEncaustic Artwork by Jodi Reeb and Dietlind Vander Schaaf \nJune 26 – September 4\, 2021 \nArtist Reception: Saturday\, June 26\, 7:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. \n(MINNEAPOLIS\, MINNESOTA) Practicing within the same natural medium\, encaustic or beeswax\, with a visual language inspired by nature’s forms\, gallery artist\, Jodi Reeb\, and guest artist\, Dietlind Vander Schaaf of Portland\, Maine\, depart from each other and the traditions of encaustic painting in new work presented in Structure + Connection at Kolman & Pryor Gallery. Curated by Reeb and gallery co-founder and curator\, Patrick Pryor\, the exhibition opens Saturday evening\, June 26\, 2021\, with an artist reception from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. The exhibition closes September 4\, 2021. \n“Jodi is evolving into quite a force in the encaustic community as she’s bridging the gap between sculpture and painting in her new work\,” Pryor says. “Dietland’s work is highly sought after and extremely popular with collectors. We’re thrilled to pair them in this show\, in which each one’s work not only complements the other’s but together their artwork demonstrates the versatility and breadth of the encaustic medium.” \nVander Schaaf describes herself as “very much a painter. I paint in a sculptural way\, in that I build up thick layers of encaustic\, then carve into those layers\, often with repetitive\, distinctive mark making\, to add further texture and sculptural dimension to the work.” \nA teacher and practitioner of such contemplative practices as yoga and meditation\, Vander Schaaf says her paintings are “abstracted landscapes\, as well as inner landscapes where the inner and outer world meet to describe a felt experience of the world.” She hopes viewers and collectors will find quietness and calm in her work. \nReeb’s organic wall sculptures oscillate between painting and sculpture. Her circular pieces\, referencing the spheres within nature\, often overlap creating a negative space also found in many of her aluminum wall sculptures. In these sculptures\, she paints with enamel and encaustic (beeswax and damar resin) on primed aluminum\, then bends and twists the metal into dramatically textured organic forms. Reeb’s intention with her sculptural series is to investigate a folding\, opening\, and evolving as a reflection of her new approach to encaustic artwork. \n“We’re both challenging the physical properties of translucence and structure using encaustic\,” Reeb explains. “At the same time\, we’re drawn to ideas of layering inspired by natural forms where the paintings are deconstructed as well as abstracted to create structure and connection.” \nThe artists will be teaching an encaustic workshop at the gallery on Friday and Saturday\, June 25 and 26\, 2021\, 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. The cost of the workshop is $350. Please get in touch with Jodi Reeb at jodi@kolmanpryorgallery.com or at 612-247-1244 for more information. \nFor a preview of the show\, please contact Anita Sue Kolman at anita@kolmanpryorgallery.com or 612-385-4239 or Patrick Pryor at patrick@kolmanpryorgallery.com or 612-280-7812. \n—————– \n       Structure + Connection begins Saturday\, June 26\, 2021\, and closes Saturday\, September 4\, 2021. \nArtist Reception: Saturday\, June 26\, 2021\, 7:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. \nKolman & Pryor Gallery is located in Studio 395\, Northrup King Building at 1500 Jackson Street NE\, Minneapolis\, MN 55413.

SUMMARY:Jodi Reeb - Painting Toward Sculpture Reception
DESCRIPTION:Moving between two and three-dimensional forms\, Reeb is constructing paintings and sculptures layer by layer. There are three main bodies of work in this exhibition where she is exploring the theme of nature’s cycles with image and sculpture. She is working to develop scale\, geometry\, spatial relationships\, texture\, and color. \n  \nThese works challenge the visual properties of paintings and sculptures with translucency and dimensionality. Strong physical elements come from layering and texture using Encaustic paint (beeswax\, pigment\, and damar resin) while layering photos printed on tissue with oil pigments and elevating the organic paintings from the wall. \n  \nPainting Toward Sculpture\nAugust 20–October 10\nSt. John’s University Main and Target Galleries\nReception:  Thursday\, September 2\, 5:00-7:00 p.m.

SUMMARY:Opening: "inside my hands: the covid year" - dougie padilla
DESCRIPTION:SEPTEMBER’S GALLERY SHOW AT HOMEWOOD STUDIOS \n  \n“inside my hands: the covid year”\ndrawings and poems by dougie padilla \nOpening reception – Friday\, September 10th from 6pm to 9pm \ndougie will offer a poetry reading on Tuesday\, September 28th at 7pm. \n  \n  \nOur third show since reopening the gallery after Covid continues artwork that expresses itself in vibrant colors\, exuberant gestures and inviting vistas.  The drawings and poetry broadsides by dougie padilla do just that.  As his title suggests\, the work presented was produced during our time of covid and seem an antidote to the sequestering and darkness we all experienced. \n  \nAbout his work\, padilla writes: \n1) during the covid year I went dynamite creative nuts more than ever and painted and drew and wrote poems intensely and incessantly and obsessively about this quite insane and oft delightful world we live in\, and  \n  \n2) this show of drawings and poems are just the tip of that iceberg. \nPlease note:  Plymouth Avenue\, where Homewood Studios lives\, is currently undergoing a complete rebuilding and is more or less impassable.  Please go to our website – www.homewoodstudiods.com – for current driving and parking directions.

SUMMARY:Solidarity Street Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Solidarity Street Gallery \nSeptember 23-25\, 2021\, Payne Avenue – St Paul\, Mni Sota Makoce \nA one-of-a-kind arts and cultural festival centered around justice\, equity and solidarity. \nThe SOLIDARITY STREET GALLERY is a three-day art and cultural festival along Payne Avenue\, held this year September 23-25. All are invited and encouraged to participate. It aims to bring together artists\, performers\, poets\, entrepreneurs\, civic leaders\, and the local community for important conversations about justice and equity. \n  \nSOLIDARITY STREET GALLERY 2021 follows the success of last year’s event\, which sought to unite the community amid the isolation and challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic and a national reckoning with racial injustice. We find solidarity in coming together as a neighborhood and business community through art\, performance\, and poetry\, and jointly engaging in the search for solutions to a fractured society. This year’s event will focus on the topics of Indigenous Sovereignty & Environmental Justice\, centered on Native voices. The community can participate in the dialogue on these topics through curated art exhibits\, music & performances\, community and children’s activities\, and an eco-park that highlights local environmental innovations. \n​ \nSOLIDARITY STREET GALLERY is an open invitation for everyone to celebrate and appreciate the multitude of cultural\, racial\, and ethnic communities who call the Eastside home. This year’s intentional focus on the Native community is possible through partnership with Oyate Hotanin (“Voice of the People”) who will collaborate on a large-scale art installation\, performances\, and curating gallery exhibits. The festival will highlight Native sacred sites\, history\, and traditions\, as well as explore modern culture and identity of Dakota and other local Native people. We will explore key ideas of Cognitive Justice and recognize the plurality of knowledge forms which coexist. Our eco-exhibit looks to inspire event visitors to envision a ‘Just Transition’ to responsible and sustainable environmental stewardship as well as preservation of traditional lands and sacred sites. \n​ \nOur SOLIDARITY STREET GALLERY 2021 festival welcomes artists from all backgrounds to share their vision in our gallery spaces and performance stages along Payne Ave\, in partnership with the Eastside business community. There will be public calls for artists and performers to participate. There will also be a public call for vendors\, to sell food as well as arts & crafts in street-side marketplaces. Last but not least\, there will a call for volunteers from the community. They will be playing a critical role in making this entire festival possible. \nSee link for more info: https://www.solidaritystreetgallery.org/

SUMMARY:Frame Your Rights Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:#FrameYourRights Exhibition focusing on Voting\, Reproductive Rights\, Policing and other social justice topics will be staged. \nCommittee Layl McDill\, Barbara Bridges\, Cory Favre\, Nina Robinson\, Natalie McGuire\, not pictured: Deb Ripp\, Lucienne Schroepfer\n\nExhibiting: Cory Favre\, Ari Moss\, Rebecca David\,  Natalie McGuire \n\nNov 4-7\, 2021\, During Art this Way show  Location: Solar Arts Building\, Address: 711 NE 15th Ave\, Minneapolis\, MN 55413\nEvent hours:\n11-4 5-9 pm\n11-5 5-9 pm\n11-5 noon – 8 pm\n11-6 noon – 4 pm  Details: \nACW leader\, Natalie McGuire\, submits her unique photography merging into her mosaic frame works to galleries all over the country. The work\, Bridge to Wonder\, was accepted into the exhibition at the Arcadia Art Show in Tyler\, Texas. When Texas passed the law denying the marginalized their reproductive freedom (the wealthy can travel across state lines)\, Natalie felt compelled to take action.  She wrote to the curator of the exhibit that\, respectfully\, she could not send her art into a state which would support such a trampling of “the right to choose”.  Much to her amazement\, the curator of Arcadia Art Show\, Dace Kidd\, responded that she understood and asked if she could install her statement on a black background\, framed\, in the place her work would have been hung. This was an encouraging outcome\, but then so what?  Who is this punishing?  ACW is going two steps further to help those who need reproductive services NOW. \nACW is also aware that a boycott of all things Texan punishes all Texans.  If you would like to help the women currently in crisis\, please send a donation to: The Lilith Fund – supports the right of all Texans to make their own reproductive choices\, regardless of income. https://www.lilithfund.org/donate \nRead More:  https://www.arttochangetheworld.org/10781-2/

SUMMARY:Hold Us Tight - Fresh Eye Gallery show ends
DESCRIPTION:Nina Martine Robinson will be participating in Fresh Eye Gallery’s exhibition with her installation “empty without you”.\nNina’s work explores the ramifications of neurodiversity\, specifically autism spectrum disorder on the family. Many individuals on the spectrum do not like to be touched or hugged. This can lead to dysphoria within the family unit.  My use of sleeves sewn together to form figurative shapes are metaphors for hugging\, individualism and speak to the repetitive behaviors that are synonymous with ASD.\n4238 Nicollet Ave S\, Minneapolis\, MN 55409 \nMore info:     https://www.fresheyegallery.com/

SUMMARY:Anton Treuer: Artist Talk
DESCRIPTION:In The Cultural Toolbox: Traditional Ojibwe Living in the Modern World\, Anton Treuer tells stories of one Ojibwe family’s hunting\, gathering\, harvesting\, and cultural ways and beliefs–without violating protected secrets. Following the four seasons of the year and the four seasons of life\, this intimate view of the Ojibwe world reflects a relatable\, modern\, richly experienced connection to the rest of the planet. It also opens up a new way of understanding these living traditions\, which carry thousands of years of cultural knowledge still in the making.\n\n\n\nToday’s Ojibwe people have–against all odds–maintained a dazzling array of deep\, beautiful\, adaptive ways of connecting to the spiritual\, natural\, and human beings around them. Variations in Ojibwe cultural practices are\, of course\, as diverse as their homelands\, which stretch across the Great Lakes\, Canadian shield\, pine forests\, and prairie potholes of four US states and three Canadian provinces. And Ojibwe culture\, like every other culture\, has changed over time. But these variations and changes have always followed a distinct path\, reflecting an identifiably Ojibwe worldview. While the world around\, in\, and connected to Ojibwe spaces continues to envelop myriad cultures and peoples\, the Ojibwe have found a way to stay recognizable to their ancestors. \nDate: Wed.\, Dec 8\, 2021\, 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm\nLocation: Mill City Museum\, 704 S. 2nd St.\, Minneapolis\, MN 55407\nContact: 612-341-7582\, mcm@mnhs.org\nCost: Free
