SUMMARY:Michael Davis: Perception Artist Reception
DESCRIPTION:MICHAEL DAVIS: PERCEPTION\nPalos Verdes Art Center/Beverly G. Alpay Center for Arts Education is pleased to announce Michael Davis: Perception\, on view May 5 through July 8\, 2023. An artist reception will be held Saturday\, June 10\, 6-9 pm. The art includes works presented to be viewed with 3D glasses\, provided by PVAC. \n“While navigating Landsat records of Earth’s land surfaces from space I discovered large areas of disturbed landscapes. These were immense open pit mines at numerous locations world wide\, many of which were Rare Earth mines or REEs. The mining and processing to separate the rare earth elements is an environmental conundrum. On one hand these elements are in extremely high demand and necessary for electric vehicles and digital devices. On the other\, these mining operations disrupt and destroy huge areas of open land\, displace whole communities and exploit and deplete natural resources leaving behind toxic waste degradation. I began to incorporate these Landsat images into a new body of work titled “Rare Earth.” \nEach Rare Earth artwork includes an archival image of a specific mine rendered in classic 3D  (anaglyph) off-registration referencing mid-century exuberant optimism\, geo-political history\, cultural signifiers\, symbolic design patterns and phenomena. They are built from a collection of found materials\, fabrics\, wallpapers\, digital imagery\, paint\, and precious metals. The digital Landsat image is positioned in juxtaposition to the other compositional elements to create a disruptive collage/painting of spacial contradictions\, surface/depth and multiple cultural interpretations.” \nMichael Davis \nMichael Davis received his MFA from CSU Fullerton and maintains a studio in San Pedro\, California. He has had over thirty-three solo and sixty-five group exhibitions in the U.S. and abroad for museums and galleries and city\, state and federal arts agencies. Davis has received two National Endowment for the Arts fellowships\, the Hand Hollow Arts Fellowship\, and an AIA Award of Excellence and has been a visiting artist and guest at numerous university forums. \nWearing face masks is strongly encouraged when visiting the Art Center.

SUMMARY:CONNECTIVE THREADS Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:CONNECTIVE THREADS\nFiber Art from Southern California\nCurated by Carrie Burckle and Jo Lauria\nJanuary 28 – April 15\, 2023\nArtists’ Reception February 4\, 6-9pm\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPalos Verdes Art Center / Beverly G. Alpay Center for Arts Education is pleased to announce Connective Threads\, a survey of contemporary fiber art in Southern California. Organized by Palos Verdes Art Center\, the exhibition is curated by Carrie Burckle and Jo Lauria. Connective Threads opens January 28 and runs through April 15\, 2023. An artists’ reception will be held February 4 from six to nine pm. Proof of vaccination is required for attendance in accordance with PVAC policy. \nExhibiting artists include Fafnir Adamites\, Casey Baden\, Jim Bassler\, Cameron Taylor-Brown\, Ben Cuevas\, Renata Daina\, Gail Fraser\, Phyllis Green\, Lydia Tjioe Hall\, Molly Haynes\, Annette Heully\, Dong Kyu Kim\, Michael Koch\, Jeanne Medina Le\, Mary Little\, Carmen Mardonez\, Victoria May\, Blue McRight\, Diane Meyer\, Dominga Opazo\, Claudia Parducci\, Michael F. Rohde\, Gwen Samuels\, Lorenzo Hurtado Segovia\, Meredith Strauss\, Carol Shaw-Sutton\, Regina Vorgang\, and Kay Whitney.  \nConnective Threads provides a window into what is currently engaging fiber artists\, even as this discipline continues to evolve and change. Emanating from artists’ studios in Southern California\, the exhibition offers unique perspectives on the complicated identities of fiber art as a genre. Fiber artists can formally exploit the medium’s connections to pattern\, color\, shape\, and texture. Multilayered content can also be woven into its structure through abstract\, representational\, or narrative strategies. The works on view encompass a rich diversity of influences and inspirations\, independent from conventional expectations. Collectively they offer a penetrating examination of fiber’s possibilities. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nCURATORS\nCarrie Burckle is a visual artist\, educator\, and founding member of Textile Arts Los Angeles. She has an extensive teaching history in the Los Angeles public schools\, and at California State University Northridge\, San Diego State\, Cal State LA\, the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising and Woodbury University. Burckle has been an adjunct faculty member in the Fiber program at CSULB since 2002. Jo Lauria is a Los Angeles-based curator\, writer\, and educator. She is a specialist in the fields of design\, craft\, and decorative arts. She received the 2016 American Ceramic Circle Book Award for Ralph Bacerra: Exquisite Beauty. Lauria is currently adjunct curator of the American Museum of Ceramic Art and mentor faculty at Otis College of Art and Design.

SUMMARY:TED TWINE: Conversations with the Artist
DESCRIPTION:Ted Twine: Conversations with the Artist\nDecember 17\, 3 – 6pm\n\n\nVerdes Art Center / Beverly G. Alpay Center for Arts Education is pleased to present Ted Twine: Deep Flat Theory. A special event\, “Conversations with the Artist\,” will be held in the Norris Gallery this Saturday\, December 17\, from 3 to 6 pm. At 4pm the artist will speak briefly on the subject “How to Look at Art (and the World) and Really See It\,” followed by a Q & A. Proof of vaccination is required for attendance in accordance with PVAC policy.\n\nInfluences as varied as Tantric art\, the cut-outs of late-stage Matisse\, and historic Japanese painting and woodblock printing have found their way into Ted Twine’s art. An exploration of consciousness and perception is at the root of Twine’s approach to image making. Flatness of backgrounds and of shapes\, with no attempt to create the illusion of three-dimensional space\, allows the shape itself to be assertive.\n\nShape is made apparent by its color. Depth is suggested within a relatively flat field with lines branching along the surface\, suggesting perpendicular space. Seeing both possibilities at the same time is the key to “deep flat” vision.\n\nThe phrase “deep flat” suggests a coexistence of oppositional or contrasting characteristics\, like universal/personal\, hard/soft\, bright/muted\, serious/humorous. Twine believes that good art\, whether visual\, literary or musical\, tends to stretch our minds to absorb\, rather than resist\, paradox\, invoking the imagination and establishing “a viewpoint beyond normal perception and understanding.”

SUMMARY:Ted Twine: Deep Flat Theory Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Ted Twine: Deep Flat Theory\nDecember 2\, 2022 – January 7\, 2023 \nOpening Reception Friday\, Dec 2\, 6 – 9pm \n  \n  \nI live and work in the Port of Los Angeles community of San Pedro (which happens to be my hometown) since returning from Japan in the mid-80s. Among a small\, eccentric and dedicated group of serious artists who have set up shop here over the years\, I have found that the contrast between the industrial environment of the harbor\, the rugged coastline\, the hills of the town and peninsula behind it\, makes for a stimulating place to live and do creative work. \nI think of myself as attempting to produce a playful sort of abstraction with quirky spiritual undertones—imagery which\, though reflecting a mode of perception arrived at through non-Western contemplative practices and study\, yet does not take itself too seriously. The process of teasing out a finished work that feels whole and balanced\, yet remains elusive to the rational mind is\, to me\, fun\, meaningful and challenging. \nTed Twine \n  \n

SUMMARY:BOHANNON LECTURE SERIES: Bruce Dalrymple discusses GIFTED: Collecting the Art of California at Gardena High School\, 1919-1956
DESCRIPTION:10/26\, 10:30-11:30 Peninsula Seniors BOHANNON LECTURE SERIES\, Bruce Dalrymple\, GHS Class of Summer 1961\, followed by a gallery tour. \nBruce Dalrymple is the president of  GHS Art Collection Board of Directors. \nHe will discuss the history of Gardena High School\, how the art collection began and evolved\, and the role that GHS Art Collection\, Inc. and its supporters played in making the art collection available for the public.  A slide presentation is included. \nBruce Dalrymple was born and raised in Southern California and he graduated from Gardena High School in 1961. He received double Bachelor of Science degrees in Recreation Administration and in History\, both from California State University at Long Beach. Bruce worked for 36 years as a 5th and 6th grade elementary school teacher for the Los Angeles Unified School District\, and retired in 2004. He has had a side career in music\, having performed in groups and as a soloist\, and was a substitute music teacher with the Palos Verdes Unified School District. He serves on the Music Board for the Neighborhood Church in Palos Verdes Estates\, organizes and hires entertainers for summer concerts at the church\, for the Palos Verdes Breakfast Club\, and for the Wednesday Summer Concert Series at the Palos Verdes Estates Library. \n“I first became aware of the art at Gardena High School as a student when many paintings were on display in the halls and in the school library. I developed a love for art while traveling in Europe and the United States visiting numerous well-known museums. I joined the Board of Directors of the GHS Art Collection in 2012 with the hope of restoring the paintings\, making them available for public viewing\, and developing educational opportunities for the students of Gardena High School as well as all schools in the Gardena community and the Los Angeles Unified School District.” – Bruce Dalrymple

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: GIFTED - Collecting the Art of California at Gardena High School\, 1919-1956
DESCRIPTION:GIFTED:\nCollecting the Art of California\nat Gardena High School\, 1919-1956\n\nSeptember 17 – November 12\, 2022\nOpening Reception: September 24\, 6 – 9pm\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPalos Verdes Art Center / Beverly G. Alpay Center for Arts Education is pleased to announce GIFTED: Collecting the Art of California at Gardena High School\, 1919-1956\, organized by the GHS Art Collection\, Inc. in association with the Gardena High School Student Body and curated by Susan M. Anderson. The exhibition featuring 50 paintings will open at Palos Verdes Art Center September 17\, followed by a public reception\, September 24 from 6 to 9pm. Docent tours will be available Tuesdays and Saturdays during the run of the show\, from 10am to noon and by appointment. Contact Gail Phinney\, Community Engagement Director\, at gphinney@pvartcenter.org to schedule an appointment. \n\nThe exhibition and accompanying catalogue chronicle the history of the school’s ambitious endeavor within the context of the wider cultural scene in Los Angeles\, revealing that a broader public than was previously known—one driven by educational rather than economic values—participated in the development of Southern California art. \n\nFrom 1919 to 1956\, students in the senior class selected\, purchased\, and donated some seventy-two works of art to the high school as class gifts. Over the years\, artists\, the federal art projects\, and other individuals and organizations also made many gifts of art to the collection. In 1923 Gardena High School designed a new auditorium to house the permanent collection\, establishing the first public art gallery in Southern California with a collection of regional art. Since the mid-1950s\, the collection has been in storage and unavailable for viewing by the public. The exhibition GIFTED: Collecting the Art of California at Gardena High School\, 1919- 1956 was originally exhibited at the Hilbert Museum of California Art in 2019. This presentation of GIFTED is the first for Los Angeles County\, where Gardena High School is located. PVAC is thankful to the organizers for sharing this important exhibition with our community.

Curator Jo Lauria will discuss works on view in the exhibition that relate to the mythical and spiritual qualities of water\, and spotlight the works that provoke discussion about the global climate crisis\, ocean pollution\, and destruction of marine ecosystems. Looking closely at the ceramics in the galleries\, she will review the myriad pathways artist embrace to communicate their stories and connect with viewers of their work.  \nAlso included in the exhibition are works by current and past ceramics instructors and workshop artists. PVAC has maintained a well-equipped\, functioning ceramics studio since the late 1960s and many affiliated with the studio have achieved international acclaim\, including Philip Cornelius\, Rosaline Delisle\, Vivika and Otto Heino\, Yoshiro Ikeda\, Harrison McIntosh\, Adrian Saxe\, Peter Shire\, and Anna Silver. In this survey of over seventy pieces\, a wide range of forming methods\, surface designs\, and ideations are highlighted. The curator will identify the different techniques of wheel throwing and hand sculpting\, and approaches to glazing and firing that can be observed in the works on display.  \n  \n_________________________________________ \n  \nJo Lauria is a Los Angeles-based curator\, author\, and educator who received her curatorial training at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
