SUMMARY:The Decency Project – Craft and Labor as Communal Conduit with Scott Braun
DESCRIPTION:The Decency Project – Craft and Labor as Communal Conduit with Scott Braun | Wed. July 27\, 2022 | 6:30 pm EDT | Live on ZOOM\nTo RSVP\, click HERE \nJoin us for a talk with Scott Braun on the Decency Project. The Decency Project ranges from intimate dialog to group conversation to performative demonstrations and sometimes even collaborative performance. In all cases\, finding connection and community through craft and labor is at the core. What does it mean to be human? If I am human\, what does that mean I should do\, and not do? How do we define decency and shame? Come join us for this discussion and find answers together. At least more questions. Or maybe just a way to feed each other. \nThe image above is Scott Braun demonstrating spoon carving. \nScott Braun is a visual artist\, educator\, and socio-political activist whose interactive performances\, sculptures\, and installations engage participants in an exploration of self in the context of society. He has been artist-in-residence at Anderson Ranch in Colorado and Haystack in Maine\, and his work has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions at the Queens Museum\, Sideshow Gallery\, The Rosenthal Library\, Benton/Nyce Gallery\, Pei-Ling Chen Sculpture Garden at Savannah College of Art and Design\, Rye Arts Center gallery\, and the American University Museum. \nHis current endeavor\, “The Decency Project\,” draws upon his extensive background in woodworking and social practice\, using craft and labor as a conduit for creating community. The project has traveled from Richmond\, VA to Washington\, DC\, and New York\, NY\, and is featured in the documentary series “The Line (That Divides Us).” The Decency Project has also been featured right here at the Center for Art in Wood and Love Park in Philadelphia\, PA\, and recently at the Colorado School of Mines in Golden\, CO\, in Fall 2021. \nBraun has worked professionally as a musician\, spoken word performer\, furniture designer/maker\, visual artist\, and educator. He has served as Lecturer in Sculpture at Yale School of Art\, Faculty at New York School of Interior Design\, and Assistant Professor in the Craft/Material Studies Department at VCUArts in Richmond\, VA. He holds a BA in Music from Berklee College of Music in Boston\, and an MFA in Studio Art and Social Practice from Queens College\, CUNY in NY. \nThis event is free to the public. The Center for Art in Wood interprets\, nurtures\, and champions creative engagement and expansion of art\, craft\, and design in wood to enhance the public’s understanding and appreciation of it. A suggested donation of $5 per person enables us to provide programs and exhibitions throughout the year. \nDONATE \nFor questions\, contact Katie Sorenson\, Senior Manager of Partnerships and Engagement\, at katie@museumforartinwood.org

June 22\, 2022 | 6:30 – 7:30 pm EDT | ZOOM\nClick HERE to RSVP \nJoin us for a discussion with author and curator Craig Edelbrock on the current exhibition Spoons to Stir the Soul: The World of Norm Sartorius. We’ll talk about the process of preparing for an exhibition that spans over 40 years of work and the painstaking collection of information for the accompanying book. Don’t miss this talk with a true champion of craft! \nProtrait of Craig Edelbrock \nAuthor Craig Edelbrock retired from an academic career and is pursuing a second passion as a craft author and curator. He is vitally interested in the history\, current state\, and future of fine craft in America. He has served on the Boards of the Wharton Esherick Museum\, The Center for Art in Wood\, the Kentuck Art Center\, and the Collectors of Wood Art. \nCraig is a woodturner and spoon carver under the mentorship of Norm Sartorius. Norm\, Barry Gordon\, and Phil Jurus collaborated previously with Craig on major exhibits of Emil Milan’s works and the award-winning book Emil Milan: Midcentury Master (2018). An article about Milan written by Craig appeared in American Craft magazine (Oct/Nov 2018). \nIn preparation for Norm’s biography\, Craig interviewed more than thirty people intertwined in different ways with Norm’s life and art\, including family members\, childhood friends\, college classmates\, fellow artists\, collaborators\, collectors\, curators\, and museum directors. Drawing on his professional training and expertise in lifespan human development\, Craig’s biography explicates Norm’s life in the context of his times and addresses his motivations\, aspirations\, inspirations\, and influences. Particular attention was paid to Norm’s “Deep Well” of artistic content and to his creative process. \nThis event is free to the public. The Center for Art in Wood interprets\, nurtures\, and champions creative engagement and expansion of art\, craft\, and design in wood to enhance the public’s understanding and appreciation of it. A suggested donation of $5 per person enables us to provide programs and exhibitions throughout the year. \nDONATE \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Gallery Talk for Spoons to Stir the Soul with Norm Sartorius
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Talk for Spoons to Stir the Soul with Norm Sartorius | Sat. May 7\, 2022 | 1:00 pm EDT | Hybrid Event\nClick HERE to RSVP\nGuests may join us in person or via ZOOM \nJoin us for a Gallery Tour of Spoons to Stir the Soul with artist Norm Sartorius who will lead you through the first career retrospective exhibition celebrating 40 years of his life and work. The exhibition includes many of Sartorius’s finest works\, selected from some of the premier private and public collections in the United States. In addition to Sartorius’s spoons\, Spoons to Stir the Soul will include outstanding examples demonstrating the breadth of his artistic repertoire\, including larger sculptures. \nNorm Sartorius (b. 1947) has built a unique career sculpting wooden spoons that\, as he says\, “stir the soul\, not the soup.” Leaving a job in psychiatric social work\, he embarked as a young man on a quest to find something tangible to make with his hands. With no background\, he apprenticed with versatile crafters Phil and Sandye Jurus in Baltimore. He learned about tools and techniques in wood and metal. Leaving the city\, he became a hippie homesteader in the mountains of West Virginia living on 25 acres on a remote mountaintop for five years. He sold functional woodenware of various kinds at local craft fairs\, but it was his spoons that caught people’s attention. They had an artistic flair that hinted at ta deep artistic well of ideas and forms expressed as spoonish sculptures. Norm\, too has said that spoons held a special attraction for him from the start. \nNow 30 years on\, Norm has “stayed in his seat\,” exploring the common wooded spoon as a context for sculpture. Using woods of exceptional beauty\, he shapes each spoon to stand as a unique artistic statement of color\, form\, and texture. Advancing the art of the spoon to a very high level\, each work is inspired by the wood itself\, and draws on his deep repository of creative ideas and ancient spoon making traditions worldwide. \n\nThis event is free to the public. The Center for Art in Wood interprets\, nurtures\, and champions creative engagement and expansion of art\, craft\, and design in wood to enhance the public’s understanding and appreciation of it. A suggested donation of $5 per person enables us to provide programs and exhibitions throughout the year. \nDONATE \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:How it Started and How it's Going: Collector Dan Zobel
DESCRIPTION:How it Started and How it’s Going: Collector Dan Zobel | Thurs. March 31\, 2022 | 6:30 pm EST | LIVE on ZOOM\nClick HERE to RSVP \nJoin us for How it Started and How it’s Going\, a speaker series with collectors. We’ll dive into their collections and learn about how they got started and why; we’ll hear what attracts them to certain pieces and see some of their favorite works. We will also discuss what makes someone a collector of art and how to start your own collection. Our next talk features collector and woodturner\, Dan Zobel. \nDon’t miss this special glimpse into a collection! \nDan Zobel is a Philadelphia furniture shop manager\, woodturner\, and collector of wood art. Dan’s love of woodworking and woodturning began in 2007 under the tutelage of Mark Sfirri at Bucks County Community College.  Through school as well as the attendance of collaborative events\, primarily Echo Lake\, he made many connections with fellow local\, national and international woodworkers. \nDan’s wood art collection began when he went to a Michael Hosaluk demo. Michael was about to do a demo at Indiana University of Pennsylvania\, where Dan was driving out to the next day. In exchange for taking his tools and paints out\, Michael gifted Dan a small demo piece.  The kindness\, trust\, and demonstrated skill from this interaction only expounded his love for the art. \nThe local woodturning community and friendships have helped to continually grow Dan’s love of the art and collection.  His collection is not nearly the scale of the renowned collector from the first talk in this series\, Joe Seltzer\, but one unique aspect of the collection is there are no restrictions.  Dan’s collection includes prints\, furniture\, turnings\, and sculpture. \nThis event is free to the public. The Center for Art in Wood interprets\, nurtures\, and champions creative engagement and expansion of art\, craft\, and design in wood to enhance the public’s understanding and appreciation of it. A suggested donation of $5 per person enables us to provide programs and exhibitions throughout the year. \nDONATE \nQuestions?

As Curator of The Arts at CIIS since 2010\, Visser connects history to the present to look for common themes and engage historical context in a deeper understanding of the challenges we face today. She also has an active visual practice engaged with the arts as a form of civic participation\, working collaboratively for the past decade with the Skywatchers Ensemble in San Francisco’s Tenderloin district. \nVisser started woodworking as an undergraduate in the sculpture studio\, learning to build furniture from old-growth Douglas fir scavenged from dumpsters. She later worked as a finish carpenter on residential remodeling sites. Mostly self-taught\, Visser continued to pursue woodworking; in 2015-2016\, she studied furniture-making at the Krenov School in Mendocino. \nVisser is co-curator with Laura Mays of Making a Seat at the Table: Women Transform Woodworking\, the survey exhibition that grew out of this research process for this book and debuted in 2019 at The Center for Art in Wood in Philadelphia featuring 43 contemporary women and gender non-conforming woodworkers. \nThis event is free to the public. The Center for Art in Wood interprets\, nurtures\, and champions creative engagement and expansion of art\, craft\, and design in wood to enhance the public’s understanding and appreciation of it. A suggested donation of $5 per person enables us to provide programs and exhibitions throughout the year. \nDONATE \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:Artist Talk with Michael Ferris
DESCRIPTION:Artist Talk with Michael Ferris | Thurs. January 27\, 2022 | 6:30 – 7:30 pm EST | Zoom Event\nClick HERE to RSVP \nJoin the Center for Art in Wood for a virtual discussion with Bronx-based sculpture artist Michael Ferris. During his presentation\, Ferris will share insights about portraiture\, the cultural and art-historical influences behind his unique visual language\, and the humble materials that give form to his body of work. Don’t miss your chance to meet the artist behind this singular figurative sculpture and his timeless\, larger-than-life portrayal of everyday people. Extra-Human: The Art of Michael Ferris is on view at the Center for Art in Wood through April 24\, 2022. \nThe larger-than-life figurative sculptures of Bronx-based artist Michael Ferris embody a rich fusion of cultural and artistic traditions. Trained as a painter\, Ferris embraced sculpture twenty-five years ago and developed an inlay technique inspired by intarsia woodworking from his Middle-Eastern heritage. Ferris’s unique approach to this historical process involves the reclaiming of discarded wood\, a method informed by his environmental concerns. He further expands this traditional practice through the use of pigmented grout\, which yields a color palette that contrasts with wood’s natural hues. \nMichael Ferris’s work has been exhibited widely at museums across the nation and his work can be found in public collections at the de Young Museum in San Francisco\, CA; Illinois State Museum in Springfield\, IL; and Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art in Bentonville\, AR. Extra-Human\, which is guest-curated by Suzanne Ramljak\, is the first museum solo exhibition of the artist’s career to be presented on the East Coast. \nThis event is free to the public. The Center for Art in Wood interprets\, nurtures\, and champions creative engagement and expansion of art\, craft\, and design in wood to enhance the public’s understanding and appreciation of it. A suggested donation of $5 per person enables us to provide programs and exhibitions throughout the year. \nDONATE \nFor questions\, contact Katie Sorenson\, Senior Manager of Partnerships and Engagement\, at katie@museumforartinwood.org

SUMMARY:Exhibition Tour - Jack Larimore: Sculpture
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Tour – Jack Larimore: Sculpture | Tues. September 14\, 2021 | 6:30 pm EDT | Atelier Gallery 1301 N. 31st Street\, Suite 2\, Philadelphia | In-Person Event Vaccination and Masks Required\nClick HERE to RSVP \nJoin us for a special tour of sculptor Jack Larimore’s solo exhibition of new works at Atelier Gallery on Tuesday\, September 14th at 6:30 pm EDT. Sculpture artist\, furniture maker\, and landscape architect Jack Larimore has been making three-dimensional work in various media for 35 years. His upcoming exhibition\, Jack Larimore: Sculpture\, will spotlight recent large-scale installations by the artist. The exhibition will be on view at Atelier Gallery\, located in the Brewerytown section of Philadelphia\, September 10 — October 16\, 2021. \n\n\n\nThe new work presented in Sculpture explores dualism and the artist’s exploration into the relentless conflict between head and heart. Much of the work in this recent series reveals Larimore’s embrace of mystery and his belief that the unanswered is more provocative than the answered. Deeply immersed in nature\, Larimore is drawn to the wonder of the natural world\, unencumbered by science and human constructs. \nThis is an in-person event at Atelier Gallery. Masks and vaccination are required to enter. Space is limited. \n\n\n\nThis event is free to the public. The Center for Art in Wood interprets\, nurtures\, and champions creative engagement and expansion of art\, craft\, and design in wood to enhance the public’s understanding and appreciation of it. A suggested donation of $5 per person enables us to provide programs and exhibitions throughout the year. \nDonate \nFor questions\, contact Katie Sorenson\, Senior Manager of Partnerships and Engagement\, at katie@museumforartinwood.org \nImage: Jack Larimore\, Trial\, 2019\, cedar and steel

SUMMARY:How it Started and How it’s Going: Collector Joe Seltzer
DESCRIPTION:How it Started and How it’s Going: Collector Joe Seltzer | Wed. May 12\, 2021 | 6:30 pm EST | LIVE on ZOOM\nClick HERE to RSVP \nJoin us for How it Started and How it’s Going\, a speaker series with collectors. We’ll dive into their collections and learn about how they got started and why; we’ll hear what attracts them to certain pieces and see some of their favorite works. We will also discuss what makes someone a collector of art and how to start your own collection. Our first talk will feature Collector\, Woodturner\, and retired Educator Joe Seltzer. \nDon’t miss this special glimpse into a collection! \nJoe Seltzer \nJoe Seltzer is a woodturner and avid collector of wood art. He first noticed woodturning in 1985 when he went to the Renwick to see the Jacobson Collection. He began to go to local craft shows and shortly thereafter\, decided to limit his collection to pieces less than 7 inches in height or diameter. In about 1988 he read a newspaper article about Albert LeCoff\, tracked him down\, and went to visit. From that and many subsequent interactions\, he began to learn about the field. He started to go to national craft shows and conferences and met many artists and collectors who became friends. He is a founding Board Member of the Collectors of Wood Art (CWA)\, was on the Board for 12 years\, including a term as President. He helped organize two conferences presented jointly by the CWA and the Wood Turning Center (now CAW). \nIn 1998\, Joe became involved with the annual local collaborative conference called Echo Lake and has been on the steering committee and attended ever since. He helped organize a tenth anniversary retrospective exhibition held at CAW and a twentieth-anniversary retrospective exhibit at New Hope Arts. \nHis collection now includes over 1200 objects\, all of which except about two dozen fit the 7-inch criteria. \n  \n\nThis event is free to the public. The Center for Art in Wood interprets\, nurtures\, and champions creative engagement and expansion of art\, craft\, and design in wood to enhance the public’s understanding and appreciation of it. A suggested donation of $5 per person enables us to provide programs and exhibitions throughout the year. \nDONATE \nQuestions?

SUMMARY:The 2020 Bob Stocksdale International Excellence in Wood Award: Kristin LeVier
DESCRIPTION:The 2020 Bob Stocksdale International Excellence in Wood Award: Kristin LeVier | Thurs\, April 22\, 2021 | 6:30 pm | Virtual Lecture Co-hosted by Winterthur Museum\, Garden & Library\nImages: Kristin LeVier\, Winter Nest\, 2019. Photo: Jonathan Billing. Bob Stocksdale\, Snake Bowl\, 1984. Photo: John Carlano.\nClick here to RSVP \nJoin us to celebrate the fifth year of the Bob Stocksdale International Excellence in Wood Award. Supported by an anonymous donor\, this award is presented annually to an emerging or mid-career artist whose work unites quality of craftsmanship and respect for material\, for which renowned master woodturner Bob Stocksdale (1913–2003) is known. The 2020 recipient for the Bob Stocksdale International Excellence in Wood Award is Kristin LeVier\, Moscow\, ID. \nIn commemoration of the 2020 Stocksdale Award\, Jena Gilbert-Merrill\, a current Lois F. McNeil Fellow in the Winterthur Program in American Material Culture\, will present a lecture on LeVier and renowned master woodturner Bob Stocksdale (1913 – 2003). Gilbert-Merrill\, whose research interest is focused on the history and experience of empathy-embedded objects and materials\, will discuss LeVier’s work in the context of Stocksdale’s impact and legacy\, including his quality of craftsmanship\, respect for materials\, commitment to human rights\, and artistic innovation in the material of wood. \n  \nKristin LeVier by Jonathan Billing. \nKristin LeVier: I create minimalist contemporary sculpture inspired by my deep fascination with the natural world\, and my mission as an artist is to tell a story through work at the intersection of art and science. I’m driven to make art that excites curiosity and connects us to the extraordinary\, strange beauty of the world around us. \nThe two decades I spent as a research molecular biologist allowed me to explore the complexity of our world\, and I continue to view my surroundings through the eyes of a scientist. The structure of a leaf or the movement of a bacterium can be astonishingly beautiful\, and I sculpt with the aim of illuminating the subtle and the tiny. \nThrough my work I hope to deliver scientific content viscerally to encourage curiosity and a desire to look more closely at the smallest details of the fantastically rich and beautiful world around us. \n  \nJena Gilbert-Merrill by Emily Bach \nJena Gilbert-Merrill is a scholar and artist with an interest in making\, makership\, and materiality. She graduated from Swarthmore College in 2016 with a BA in Studio Art & Educational Studies\, completed a postgraduate program in Ceramics at the Maryland Institute College of Art\, and is currently a Lois F. McNeil Fellow in the Winterthur Program in American Material Culture. With her background in art-making\, craftwork\, and education\, Jena is especially drawn to investigate how things are made\, the empathy embedded in handmade objects\, and the unique way that objects and materials can contain\, encode\, and reveal stories\, history\, and experience. Her current research revolves around the cultural and personal significance of making and material intelligence\, as well as notions of skill\, professionalism\, and amateurism in the context of early 20th-century craft and design. \n  \nBob Stocksdale (1913–2003) was an internationally renowned pioneer of contemporary wood turning. Known for his striking lathe-turned bowls\, formed from exotic woods\, Stocksdale is credited with sparking the revitalization of the craft of wood turning and its growing significance as an art form. His signature work comprised smooth\, elegant bowl forms that emphasized the natural color and distinctive grain pattern of the wood. \nStocksdale grew up on his family’s farm in Warren\, Indiana. He began working with wood as a teenager repairing furniture and taught himself how to turn on the lathe. Drafted into the US Army in 1942\, Stocksdale claimed Conscientious Objector status and spent the duration of WWII in Civilian Public Service camps. It was in such a camp where he turned his first bowl. \nFollowing the war\, Stocksdale moved to Berkeley\, CA\, and became an early member of the Arts and Crafts Cooperative\, Inc. (ACCI)\, a cooperative gallery showing work by designer-craftspeople. He was married to the noted weaver and fiber artist\, Kay Sekimachi. \n Bob Stocksdale’s awards and acknowledgments were many. He was inducted as a Fellow of the American Crafts Council; made an Honorary Lifetime Member of the American Association of Wood Turners (AAW); honored as a California Living Treasure; and recognized as a Master of the Medium Award by the James Renwick Alliance. His work is held in the permanent collections of many notable institutions\, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, New York; the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston; the Museum of Arts and Design\, New York; the Contemporary Museum of Art\, Honolulu; and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; and the Center for Art in Wood.
