S2E61 - Ella by Steve Bartlett

We're back with a Public Art piece!

S2E60 - Luxury Liner by Joan Brown

A wonderful piece from the SFMoMA Joan Brown retrospective

Episode Notes

Joan Brown (1938-1990) was an American figurative painter who was a key figure in the Bay Area Figurative Movement, which emerged in San Francisco in the 1950s and 60s. Her work is known for its powerful use of color and its exploration of identity, often focusing on the female experience. Brown was born in San Francisco and studied at the California School of Fine Arts (now the San Francisco Art Institute). She was strongly influenced by the Bay Area Figurative painters, including Richard Diebenkorn and David Park, who emphasized the importance of the human figure in their work. Brown's early paintings were characterized by a bold use of color and a focus on the human form, often depicting herself or her family members. In the 1960s, her work became more abstract, with a greater emphasis on texture and surface. In the 1970s, Brown returned to figurative painting, creating powerful images of women that challenged traditional notions of femininity. Her work often explored themes of motherhood, sexuality, and identity, and she was one of the few female artists of her time to gain widespread recognition. Brown's work has been exhibited widely in the United States and abroad, and she has been the subject of numerous retrospectives, including a major exhibition at the Berkeley Art Museum in 1990, the year of her death. Her legacy continues to influence contemporary artists today.

S2E59 - Aspen Magazine #3

Andy Warhol & David Dalton create an incredible 'magazine'

Episode Notes

https://www.ubu.com/aspen/aspen3/

Aspen magazine issue three is an utterly important document of pop art, a magazine a document of pop art Go figure, but Aspen was different. It was a magazine in a box. It was a bunch of loose printed pieces and audio pieces and sometimes even video pieces placed into a box and sold the 1960s and into the early 70s. I own three of them and sadly not issue three which is the pop art issue, which was designed by Andy Warhol and David Dalton. And this is an absolutely massively important piece. The pieces range from the Velvet Underground, the view from the bandstand which includes their a flexi disc and some of their music. It includes pieces by John Cale and Peter Walker, a wonderful 12 paintings from the powers collection. And that's the art collection of Thomas powers. And it has James Rosenquist, Bridget Riley, Joe Lang, Lichtenstein, Noland Warhol, Klaus Oldenburg plays Oldenburger Larry Poons, Jasper Jones, de Kooning, an underground movie flipbook by Warhol were you flipping it includes Warhols kiss a 10 trip ticket book, which was from the Berkeley conference on LSD, the plastic exploding inevitable, which is a one shot newspaper done for the Velvet Underground and Warhols factory show series. what's incredible about this isn't necessarily the quality of individual pieces, but how the consolidation of them into a box makes so much sense with the method because the cover is done as a mock of FAB detergent, and it says fab 10 cents off and then there's now Aspen it's an incredibly pop art image. And since it's a box, it's mocking and mimicking a boxed product. In essence, this is exactly what pop art is doing. It is documenting the everyday world and showing it back at you in a way that you will recognize and this magazine and the link I'll include is just phenomenal. And I'll do another couple of aspen issues, including two that I own. So stay tuned.
