"Slightly Unbalanced" @ UR Museums

Location:
50 Crenshaw Way
Richmond, VA 23226

Note:
January 26 to March 4, 2010
Joel and Lila Harnett Museum of Art. Located in the Modlin Center. The exhibition features work by 18 nationally and internationally known contemporary artists focusing on a range of psychological tendencies, including anxiety, obsessive behavior, depression, and narcissism. In their work, the artists question what constitutes normalcy and what qualifies as neurosis, a slippery and suggestive behavior. This exhibition encompasses a range of artistic media: video art, installations, photographs, paintings, and drawings. The term "neurotic" is used to describe people who are extremely capable of functioning, despite some emotional suffering. In choosing to focus on neurosis, these artists tap into a charged and rewarding subject that provokes curiosity, discomfort, recognition, and even identification in the viewer. The field of psychology is well over a century old, and many of its basic concepts and terminology are embedded in our presuppositions about how human beings think and act, what drives and motivates us. Exploring the afflictions and quirks of functioning people, the artists in Slightly Unbalanced invite viewers to reconsider their own experiences and opinions, and think about cultural assumptions pertaining to mental health and human behavior. These artists also allude to all individuals' vulnerability and fragility, inviting compassion for fellow human beings. Visit iCI's website to learn more: www.ici-exhibitions.org.

"Rincon Falls, Trinidad: A Print Series by Chris Ofili" @ UR Museums

Location:
50 Crenshaw Way
Richmond, VA 23226

Note:
January 12 to September 26, 2010. Chris Ofili (British, born 1968) explores contemporary black experience in his work using references from traditional African art, images of popular culture, and influences from hip-hop music. A waterfall on the north coast of Trinidad inspired this series of prints now in the permanent collection of the Harnett Print Study Center. Ofili experiments with themes of nature and landscape to challenge his skills and to "re-learn" printmaking. He used photographs and videos he had taken as source material, combined with his own memories of hiking around Trinidad where he moved in 2005, to inspire his somewhat improvisational compositions. Ofili has had one-person exhibitions at galleries and museums throughout the world, including the Tate Britain in London, The Studio Museum in Harlem, New York, and the 50th Venice Biennale, Italy. His work is in several public and private collections, including The British Museum, London, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Rubell Family Collection, Miami, and the Deutsche Bank, Frankfurt, Germany.

They push new concepts, introduce new materials and techniques, expand old techniques and use traditional materials in new ways. This exhibition will feature works chosen by a selected panel of jurors.

Chris Semtner�s "Poe: Forgotten Memories" @ Visual Art Studio

Location:
208 West Broad Street
Richmond, VA

Note:
Runs through March 26. The New York Times called Chris Semtner�s recent exhibit Poe: Man, Myth, or Monster? �provocative,� and �a playful, robust exhibit.� This solo show includes new original paintings, "Forgotten Memories". Semtner�s delicately rendered, mostly small-scale acrylic paintings on wood present a dark, mysterious, and dangerous world in which people are victims of their own fears and desires. His work has affinities with the surreal worlds of such writers as Kafka or Poe, but Semtner�s beautifully lyrical works simultaneously call to mind such disparate visual sources as Art Nouveau, Dutch genre painting, and �sixties horror movie posters.
