SUMMARY:Artist Talk: Amalia Pica
DESCRIPTION:Join the Ackland Art Museum for an artist talk with Amalia Pica\, internationally renowned London-based Argentinian artist whose major commissioned installation Drawn to Explain has just been completed at the Craige Parking Deck on UNC’s campus. Pica will discuss how this very large-scale\, multifaceted work fits within her broader body of work\, which often explores systems of communication and human understanding in a playful\, engaging way. \nSpace is limited; please register for a free ticket below. \nThis talk has been made possible by a generous gift from Carol Cole Levin. \n—\nABOUT DRAWN TO EXPLAIN \nDrawn to Explain is a large-scale mixed media art installation at the Craige Parking Deck on the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill’s campus. The work uses powder-coated aluminum elements and paint on concrete to reflect diagrams from different disciplines and departments across the University\, conveying the sense of discovery at Carolina. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:MODERN BLACK CULTURE: THE ART OF AARON DOUGLAS
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition explores how Aaron Douglas (1899-1979)\, one of the most important modernist artists of the Harlem Renaissance\, gave visual form to the idea that Black American culture is a modern culture of diaspora. Douglas created figures that embody Pan-African ideas of Black achievement and creativity. He traced twentieth-century Black American culture and cultivated the self-image of Black Americans as a cosmopolitan cultural vanguard connected with Black people worldwide. \nThrough more than 40 paintings\, prints\, book and magazine illustrations\, drawings\, and other artworks\, Modern Black Culture demonstrates how Douglas developed an immediately recognizable style and advanced the idea that modern Black American culture drew upon music\, dance\, visual art\, and faith traditions developed in Black communities throughout the world. Sections of the exhibition focus on ways in which Douglas related Black Americans in the urban north with those living in the rural South\, as well as with Haiti\, Africa\, and Egypt. Another section explores Douglas’ connections with North Carolina. \nThe Ackland is fortunate to have a rich and varied collection of works by Aaron Douglas on long-term loan\, ranging from drawings and a sketchbook to items of applied art and a little-known version of one of his major compositions\, Building More Stately Mansions. To this core group have been added works from other well-known North Carolina collections\, including the Wilson Special Collections Library at UNC-Chapel Hill\, the North Carolina Museum of Art\, and Bennett College. \nModern Black Culture is curated by John Bowles\, associate professor of African American art in the UNC-Chapel Hill Department of Art and Art History and faculty affiliate of the Institute for African American Research. Listen to an interview with John Bowles about the exhibition on WCHL by clicking the arrow below. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:MYTH & MEMORY: SELECTED WORKS BY THE MFA CLASS OF 2022
DESCRIPTION:In Myth & Memory\, five artists interrogate practices of history-making and history-keeping at the individual\, institutional\, and systemic level. Beginning with personal narrative\, each artist engages a vocabulary of fantasy to make visible that which has been forgotten\, obscured\, or erased by white heteropatriarchal modes of dominance. Through intimate gestures and acts of subversion\, they reframe the lens through which memory is archived to tell new stories from a restructured past. Their work imagines potential futures in which marginalized bodies are not under siege. \nParticipating artists are the five UNC-Chapel Hill Class of 2022 Master of Fine Arts in studio art candidates: Raj Bunnag\, Charlie Dupee\, Hugo Ljungbäck\, Phượng Duyên Hải Nguyễn\, and Stella Rosalie Rosen. Myth & Memory is curated by Laura Ritchie ’10 (BFA)\, a curator\, arts administrator\, and cultural worker in Durham; she is a founder and former executive director of The Carrack. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Artist-Led Tour of “Myth & Memory: Selected Works by the MFA Class of 2022”
DESCRIPTION:Join the 2022 Master of Fine Arts students for a special walk-through! This tour will be led by all five MFA candidates and introduced by exhibition curator Laura Ritchie. \nThrough the work of five artists\, Myth & Memory imagines a future in which the margins become the center. Drawing from personal narrative\, each of the artists engages a vocabulary of fantasy to make visible the stories that have been forgotten\, obscured\, or erased by white heteropatriarchal modes of dominance. Their work interrogates practices of history-making and history-keeping at the individual\, institutional\, and systemic level. Intimate gestures and acts of subversion reframe the lens through which memory is archived and myth is defined. As a result\, new stories emerge from a restructured past. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Collectors' Seminar: Building an Art Collection
DESCRIPTION:With Drs. John and Nicole Dintenfass\, Moderated by Peter Nisbet \nJoin us for an intimate conversation with Drs. John and Nicole Dintenfass about their lifelong passion for collecting art\, the latest in a series of talks with collectors whose works have been on view at the Ackland. The Dintenfasses have collected art for an astonishing fifty-three years\, beginning with John’s medical residency in West Africa and continuing for several decades as the French and American couple traveled throughout the U.S. and Europe. Their varied collection is comprised of African metalwork — some of which can now be seen at the Ackland in our exhibition Peace\, Power & Prestige: Metal Arts in Africa — but also extends to wooden miniatures\, Chinese art\, and American paintings and coins. The Dintenfasses\, together in conversation with Deputy Director for Curatorial Affairs Peter Nisbet\, will discuss selected works from their African collection currently on view at the Museum\, talk about how they have built and refined their collection\, and share their thoughts on the psychology of collecting art\, the subject of a book they are currently writing. \nSpace is extremely limited at this in-person program and registration is required. Please reserve your free tickets below. \nIf you find yourself unable to attend\, please email acklandrsvp@unc.edu\, so that we may offer the space to others. \nAll visitors to the Ackland Art Museum ages 2 and up must wear a mask at all times while inside the building and adhere to UNC’s community standards listed here. \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:American Tastes in Japanese Art: The Influence of Sherman Emery Lee
DESCRIPTION:At this free virtual talk Dr. James Ulak will offer thoughts on Sherman Emery Lee’s (1918–2008) powerful influence in directing collecting tastes in Japanese art throughout America. Lee’s advice has benefited countless private and institutional collections — including the Ackland Art Museum — from the immediate post-WWII era\, through his distinguished museum career\, and well into his retirement years. His role as a confidant to the Rockefellers is well documented and on display in the Ackland’s current extraordinary exhibition of Asian art\, Buddha and Shiva\, Lotus and Dragon: Masterworks from the Mr. and Mrs. John D. Rockefeller 3rd Collection at Asia Society \n\n\n	Related

SUMMARY:Artist Conversation: Zig Jackson
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a virtual conversation between artist Zig Jackson and the Ackland’s Lauren Turner\, assistant curator for the collection. Jackson’s photograph Entering Zig’s Indian Reservation\, China Basin\, San Francisco\, CA is featured in the Ackland’s 2021-2022 Close Looks series. In this free virtual conversation\, we’ll hear from Jackson about this 1997 work\, others in the series and about how it fits into his larger body of photography. \nRegister below for a free ticket. A Zoom link will be sent to all registered participants via email. \nZig Jackson (Rising Buffalo) is a photographer of Mandan\, Hidatsa\, and Arikara descent who was raised on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation in North Dakota. Though art was always part of his life\, he began formally learning sketching\, painting\, and then photography during his primary and second education within the government Indian boarding school systems. Jackson earned a bachelor’s degree in education at Northeastern Oklahoma State\, while also studying with several area artists\, before pursuing his interest in photography through continued studies at the University of New Mexico. In 1994\, Jackson received a Master of Fine Arts in photography from San Francisco Art Institute. He is the recipient of numerous prestigious awards and grants including a residential fellowship at the Headlands Center for the Arts in Sausalito\, California; a Wallace Alexander Gerbode Foundation Grant for excellence in the photographic arts\, which culminated with an exhibition\, “Entering Zig’s Indian Reservation\,” at the American Indian Contemporary Arts center in San Francisco; a National Millennium Survey Grant; and the inaugural Beaumont Newhall Award for Photographic Excellence from the New Mexico Humanities Council. In 2005\, Jackson became the first Native American photographer collected by the Library of Congress\, when twelve of his images were accessioned by its Prints and Photographs Division. Jackson has taught photography at Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe\, at San Francisco State University and UC Davis\, and beginning in 1999 at the Savannah College of Art and Design\, where he is now professor emeritus. \nImage Credit: Zig Jackson\, Native American\, born 1957\, “Entering Zig’s Indian Reservation\, China Basin\, San Francisco\, CA\,” 1997\, archival pigment print\, 20 3/16 × 23 15/16 in.
