More Information

Time is an incomprehensible phenomenon for humans. Our body changes, things pass away, new things take the place of the old. Our memory stores in a disorganized way what seems important to us. Images and writings make it possible to collect, order and design in a targeted manner.
Just like the thread, Christine Läubli accompanies writing through life. Whether in the creation of images or the writing of texts - it is always a matter of finding the precise form. By dealing with a topic for a long time, she tries to grasp its core and shape it in its very own way. The attraction lies in the process, in the slowness, the silence, in which something new breaks open, takes shape and expression.

Die Zeit ist für den Menschen ein unfassbares Phänomen. Unser Körper verändert sich, Dinge vergehen, Neues tritt anstelle des Alten. Unser Gedächtnis bewahrt ungeordnet auf, was ihm wichtig scheint. Bilder und Schriften ermöglichen es, gezielt zu sammeln, zu ordnen und zu gestalten.
Ebenso wie der Faden begleitet Christine Läubli die Schrift durchs Leben. Ob beim bildnerischen Gestalten oder dem Verfassen von Texten – immer geht es darum, die präzise Form zu finden. Indem sie sich lange Zeit mit einem Thema befasst, versucht sie, dessen Kern zu erfassen und in seiner ureigenen Weise zu gestalten. Der Reiz liegt im Prozess, in der Langsamkeit, der Stille, in der etwas Neues aufbricht, Form und Ausdruck annimmt.

The World is Flat

China

Event Dates

The exhibition is opened from August 08, 2020 until September 05, 2020.

Artist

Aditi Patwari and other Artists

Opening Hours

Daily, 24 hours

Location

Online exhibition / China

https://independentimage.org

More Information

From August 8 to September 5, 2020, Independent & Image Art Space presents the group exhibition 'The World is Flat'. Nine artists worldwide respond to the theme of “the world is flat”, expressing their ideas with the works of art and expecting to inspire more people to think.

In 2005, Thomas L. Friedman’s best-selling book, “The World Is Flat” made the term “globalization” a household name. The fast and convenient communication network, air transportation, and trade exchanges that human society has today are more closely connected with people living in different countries and regions than ever before. 

However, the interconnected, “flat” world has also exacerbated humankind’s challenges, such as global climate change and environmental issues. Another example is that today, 15 years later, close human interaction has become a significant factor in the rapid spread of COVID-19 worldwide. 

Exhibiting artists: Chan Suk On, Peter Devenyi, Abdo Hassan, Aline Mare, Marina Nikitina, Aditi Patwari, Louisa Potapchik, PRANNA, ZOSIA.

The Museum staff selected works by over fifty artists who live and work in the southern part of Israel. Several themes emerged from the works submitted. 

Laura Behar created 9 handmade transparent circles from Mitnan and Kozo fibre. The artist hung these circles infront of a window to take pictures from it. Nature became visible through the material, that's why she called her artwork 'Life's Circles'.

Art Under Lockdown

Italy

Event Dates

The exhibition is opened from June 25, 2020 until July 20, 2020.

Artist

Aditi Patwari & other Artists

Opening Hours

Daily, 24 hours

Location

Online exhibition 

www.counterweave.com

www.counterweave.com/artunderlockdown/

More Information

Art Under Lockdown is the first solely online exhibition for Counterweave Arts. Conceived during the first days of lockdown in Italy for the Corona-19 pandemic, the exhibition was a way of trying to find some way through this suddenly upended world where human contact is dangerous and forbidden.
How can you work as an artist when you are forcibly isolated? When your plans for showing and discussing your work with others are now impossible. Exhibitions, art fairs, open studios, workshops were all cancelled with no certainty about when we could come together again.

The only way we could connect as artists, as curators, as collectors was online. So, with that in mind, Counterweave decided to make the most of this new world.
The only stipulation for this exhibition is that the work be completed during lockdown. Artists were asked to make a statement on how the coronavirus and lockdown had affected their work.

Art Under Lockdown is more fluid than a traditional hung in a gallery show. There is the opportunity to have a continuing conversation about art and how it can function in a world where you can’t rely on being able to visit a bricks and mortar gallery and see art in the flesh.
How can we as artists and curators act in such a different world where plans made months or years into the future can suddenly come undone. We can’t rely on things going ‘back to normal’. We have to create a new normal that is flexible but doesn’t rule out coming face to face with art. To reduce art to a screen- based experience would be tragic.

The internet gives us access to all the art we could possibly want to see. Join artists from all around the world as we try to make sense of where we are now.

Meanwhile it is almost disappearing from modern life. The artist created an artwork motivated by this fact.

1308 W Dayton St
Madison WI USA 53715

More Information

For us, it's all about the art.

Capture the gesture, nail a composition, spill some color.

We craft colorful, textured handmade cotton and abaca paper objects that along with a few other materials like wood, foam board or fencing wire are then cobbled together to make our art.

Our works are abstract. They soak up the exuberance, frustration, hope and confusion that we feel as we make them. Meaning comes of living with them during their incompleteness. It comes of wondering later about the fuzzy why’s behind the formal decisions we make about color, structure, size, look.

Joanne B Kaar

Library Foyer,
Science Buildings

More Information

Joanne B Kaar  was invited by the British lichen Society and the Royal Botanic Gardens, Edinburgh, to exhibit 'North', her embossed paper coat inspired by coastal lichens, and a selection of here watercolour studies of rocks.

"...Lichens are one of the richest parts of Scotland's internationally important diversity and RBGE has a long legacy of promoting their scientific understanding.
They are also a constant source of wonder for artists: the splashes of colour on our rocky shores; the surprising quiet filigree of finely-wrought life on a winter twig; the luxurious tapestry draping and dripping off limbs in the western woods. Many are equally intrigued by the very special relationships between the fungi, algae and cyanobacteria that live together symbiotically as lichens.
This exhibition, curated by Sarah Roberts, highlights the beauty and intricacy of these fascinating organisms featuring expert scientific illustrations, contemporary artworks and work produced in art-science classes and botanical illustration courses here at Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh...."

SANCTUARY

United States

Event Dates

The exhibition is opened from January 24, 2020 until April 30, 2020.

Artist

Carrie Scanga

Opening Hours

To be scheduled.

Location

University of New England, Ketchum Gallery, Biddeford, Maine

SANCTUARY is a traveling art installation to be exhibited in medical centers, hospitals, art galleries, and academic sites across the US

More Information

Writer, Emily Rapp Black and artist, Carrie Scanga will interpret viewers’ stories of medical circumstances in visual and textual forms in an ever-changing paper installation accompanied by written text.
In each venue, viewers are invited to record and submit their stories within the immersive installation. After each venue, Scanga and Black will dismantle the sculpture and read/listen to all submitted stories, identifying moments of rupture, healing, working-through, and/or peace. Based on viewers’ submissions, the collaborators will change both the paper structure of the installation and the textual accompaniment. Blacks’ accompanying essays will provide intellectual context by interweaving viewers’ submitted stories with trauma theory, philosophy, and personal experience.

All submissions will be kept anonymous. SANCTUARY is a living installation, a space that hears experiences of those working in, admitted to, or visiting medical centers. It seeks to have communal, cultural, and intellectual impact. Medical conditions often create feelings of isolation; by comingling two powerful modalities—visual and textual--SANCTUARY actively reverses such isolation. The changing installation echoes the idea that collective storytelling acts as a dynamic vehicle for individual and social change. SANCTUARY demonstrates new ways of thinking about peoples’ life experiences that involve medical care, moving beyond commonly-used terms such as “survival” and “resiliency.” Rather than viewing recovery as the end goal, our project encourages medical conditions and recovery to co-exist, giving visual and verbal forms to both processes.

Location

One&Only Royal Mirage
Grand Gallery, Arabian Court
Dubai

More Information

Throughout history, the paucity of women-artist representations has been an impediment in the bid towards diversification within the art world. As ZeeArts Gallery attempts to realign the skewed perspectives of gendered narrations in the institution of art, the Gallery has put together a compendium of women artists on a global scale across 5 continents (Europe, Middle-East & Africa, Asia, Americas, and Oceania).The commemorative pursuits alongside International Women’s Day seek to empower and provide opportunities for female artists to reflect upon the entrepreneurial adversities they face while revising their strategies throughout the promotion of gender parity.

Fides Linien is invited to present her latest artwork ,Fusion‘. She will represent the country of her origin, Germany. The artist uses her self-made handmade papers to create unique works of art from different types of self-made paper and yarn. The artist calls these delicate paper artworks CartaStaminea (Latin: carta - paper, stamineus - full of threads):

The motif is set with yarn and paper inlays according to the drawn draft underneath the wet sheet of handmade paper, which is finally covered by another sheet of handmade paper on top of it. Finally, the draft behind is removed and the motif consists solely of yarn and paper inlays between two sheets of paper. The motif is in the paper, the lines are yarn, and the filled areas are yarn strung together. Typical for those paper artworks are their more or less transparent parts. Fides Linien developed this special technique beginning in 2007 and continues to explore this method today.

More Information

In 1983, Park Seo-Bo began using hanji paper, the traditional Korean paper made from the bark of the mulberry tree. In this process, the paper is moistened and applied in layers to the canvas, formed with various tools and then processed to create a sculptural picture surface. This development, together with the introduction of color, allowed Park to expand his artistic practice without abandoning his desire to create emptiness through reduction.
The exhibition will take place throughout the museum and comprises 40 works that provide a broad overview of his practice.

Minjung Kim's abstract paintings are created using layers of Hanji – a traditional Korean paper made from the inner bark of mulberry trees. Using the rhythm of her breath on a lit incense stick, she gently and rhythmically burns the edges of each individual strip, and using a traditional Korean gluing technique painstakingly collages these strips, layer by layer, onto a larger Hanji surface.

THE DANCE - process description
'We are two artists, a paper artist and a painter, who have created a common work with basis in our various area of work. Because we have a common pleasure in looking on paintings with dancing figures, we were inspired to create the artwork THE  DANCE.
Dancing can give pleasure, movement, rhythm, music, gathering and memories. This was the starting-point for our work. We created sketches and carried out experiments with form, structure, contrasts and materials.
The results became 10 objects around 50 cm height - gathered two and two together to 5 pairs, who dance together in a circle of a diameter of 130 cm.'

Michel Olivier - ''marine impressions''
Maritime Discovery Centre, Old Lighthouse of Penmarc'h, Finistère France

Uniting typography and paper, on the theme maritime impressions. A passionate encounter to sublimate the paper, to praise it, give it another dimension, new forms. Present it as a living matter. Play on gramages and pulp linen, hemp or mule bark, to give birth to unexpected creations. A story like no other, the idea of a hyphen for the same passion.

More Information

When making my most recent work about climate change I created paper from cotton workmen’s shirts and bed sheets donated to the families who were affected by floods in north Queensland. To this paper pulp I added soot and burnt leaf inclusions which were washed onto the beach after the rolling succession of Australian bushfires. Onto these papers I stitched  crushed paper stained with orange, red and black ink to represent fiery embers.
In my artist residency in Iceland in 2019, I made paper denoting ‘melting glaciers’ also from the same bed linen paper pulp and embedded it into sections of washed up fishing net which had been mended and re-mended. In previous work about the northern NSW floods of 2017 when my art studio was flooded, I collaged flood marked and silt stained papers together to create a narrative of survival and resilience .

These materials carry the energy of places affected by climate change. They are a metaphor for our planetary interconnectedness and speak of the hopeful efforts to address and mend this climatic emergency.

Kunsthal vARTe

There will be opening speeches by Kate Skjerning and music by guitarist Christian N. K. Hansen as we open Anni Fiil's exhibition BACK.
In February, there is paper art on the program when the artist Anni Fiil shows paper works from different periods in her artistic work, combined with brand new works created for the exhibition at Kunsthal VARTe.

It is a retrospective exhibition and the title thus refers to the artist's previously performed paper works: “It will be fun for me to look back and find out how to combine the works into a whole so that they form an exciting and varied exhibition - try to find out whether I can always recognize myself in the works, or whether there is someone who should be discarded and never shown again, or whether they should simply be shown in another context? I want to find out how events in my life have, or may not have at all, affected my artistic work, ” says Anni Fiil.

More Information

Caithness artist, Joanne B Kaar has been inspired by events reported in the John O’Groat Journal 100 years ago, when daring aviators, Harry G Hawker and Commander K Mackenzie Grieve, left St. John’s Newfoundland, attempting to cross the Atlantic non-stop. 
Engine problems resulted in them ditching in the Atlantic. Rescued, they were brought to Scrabster, Caithness, in the north of Scotland,  where a crowd had gathered to welcome them. They were later decorated with the Cross of the Royal Air Force.

In celebration of these aviators and the warm reception they received, we are connecting with Newfoundland again! For news and updates of paper aeroplane exchange events organised near you during 2019, visit the website of participating organisations:

More Information

After wood in 2017 and textiles in 2018, this winter MAMA continues the journey of vegetable fibre to explore paper. The exhibition FIBRE SENSIBLE invites you to discover the metamorphosis of leaves.
As a modest everyday tool and the first medium of the imagination, paper is here the raw material of creativity. Ordinary, white or coloured, silk or cigarette paper is folded, cut and creased to create constructions with unreal architecture, to put poetry into the constructions of reality, to give life to imaginary forms as well as inert objects.
Fifteen creators and a collectives who devote their talent to the art of paper, exhibit at the MAMA for two months.

In the exhibition Again and Again, works created during the last years by fine artist Hana Altaratz are exhibited. The paper artworks are composed of etching prints on self made recycled paper. This paper evokes the textures of walls of a cave, old scripts or antique frescoes. It has uneven edges, and monochromatic colors. Furthermore, the self-made paper artworks serve the items that attract and inspire the artist: items that lost their shiny days and therefore, reveal the beauty of ancient ages.

Crafting Conversations: Paper Makers respond to Climate Change

United States

Event Dates

The exhibition is opened from October 01, 2019 until January 15, 2020.

Artist

Katy DeMent, Albert Pantone, Treewhisperisrs

Opening Hours

Opened daily 6 am- 12 pm

Location

Steel Tower "T" Station (at Pittsburgh mass transit light rail station) 
Steel Tower" T "station

More Information

Curators, Katy DeMent (paper maker) and Ann Rosenthal ( print maker, illustrator) wanted to take an expansive view of climate change — that it is an opportunity to be and act in a world that is in relationship with one another and with nature. We have done this by demonstrating how artists are responding to these concerns, highlighting the materials they use to create their work. Not all of our materials and processes “leave no trace,” but all the exhibiting artists are moving in that direction, as our culture and society must also move toward.

How do the artists you’ve worked with for this show deal with their own practices and choices of materials as they affect climate change?
Both Katy DeMent and Albert Pantone reflect their local ecosystems through the reuse of sustainably sourced materials. They harvest invasive plants and grow plant fibers for their papermaking processes, a continuation of work they began years ago out of necessity. By engaging ephemeral materials, nothing is arbitrary and the actual surfaces, as well as the imagery, are referential.

Creatives for Climate (C4C) is a Pittsburgh-based collaborative of artists, designers, architects, climate communicators, climate scientists and climate educators. As part of its mission, C4C produces exhibitions that spark community dialogue around climate change. We were looking for an exhibition venue that would highlight some of the artists in our collaborative and approached Contemporary Craft’s (CC) Director of Exhibitions Kate Lydon.

She printed and stitched her photographs on amate and cotton paper she made at Arte Papel Oaxaca in San Augustín Etla. Adding enhancements and embellishments into each image, the artist's stitches were intertwined with paper walls. Inspired by ancient Oaxacan textile and wall patterns of Mitla, Teddy looked for openings, or spaces in between. Three-dimensional paper work and thread drawings invoke passages through the walls.

Rocks are the building blocks of the cosmos. They are a crystallization of the natural world. They seem everything that we are not: enduring, solid, immovable. This is the space were Pat Alexander (US) wants to explore.

Wendy Briggs Powell (US) submerges large sheets of paper into dyed water. These “watermarks” are at once both simple and complex and reflect to her a lived emotional experience. Her work connects heart, head and hands while aiming to convey the subtleties and nuances of the human emotional condition.

The works of Anna Bludau-Hary (Germany) are mostly organic-looking objects are bizarre and yet beautiful and mysterious. They play poetically with inside and outside, with light and its shadow.
