Natural History July 28–October 14

Natural History Forum 69July 28–October 14

Natural History brings together a wide range of contemporary art from the museum’s permanent collection to explore artists’ engagement with nature, landscape, and the built environment. Including painting, sculpture, photography, and video works, Natural History offers a non-traditional and playful presentation of relevant themes run-ning through contemporary art and directly engages with our neighbor, Carnegie Museum of Natural History.

Collectively, the artists in the exhibition explore the ways in which humans under-stand and visualize our natural environ-ment; the social and cultural meanings embedded in the tradition of landscape pho-tography and painting; the use of natural motifs for formal experimentation; environ-mentalism; and the legacy of Romanticism, as it pertains to nature and the sublime. Artists include Mel Bochner, Vija Celmins, John Divola, Fischli & Weiss, Llyn Foulkes, Rachel Harrison, Richard Hughes, Laura Owens, Ed Ruscha, Hiroshi Sugito, Paul Thek, and James Welling.

Whistler and Rebellion in the Art WorldAugust 4–December 9

James Abbott McNeill Whistler (1834–1903) was one of the most deliberately conten-tious, witty, and fiercely independent artists of his generation. Whistler rebelled against the established art world and resisted alle-giances with avant-garde movements such as Impressionism. One of the most eminent advocates of the “art for art’s sake” phi-losophy of Aestheticism, he is considered by many to be among the best printmak-ers in art history. This exhibition presents the museum’s impressive collection of Whistler’s aesthetically radical prints and drawings, revealing the evolution of his career in relation to his towering persona and place in the 19th-century art world.

Impressionism in a New Light: From Monet to StieglitzMay 12–August 26

Impressionism in a New Light: From Monet to Stieglitz features more than 150 works by many of the most important artists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Drawn primarily from the museum’s significant collection, the exhibition recaptures the radical nature of the Impressionist movement and explores its influences in many forms. Including beloved works by artists such as Cassatt, Cézanne, Degas, Gauguin, Van Gogh, Monet, Pissarro, Renoir, and Seurat, Impressionism in a New Light also examines the visual dialogue between Impressionism and the Pictorialist movement in photography, intermixing photographs by Demachy, Käsebier, Stieglitz, Steichen, White, and others. This exhibition investigates the complicated nature of Impressionist art, transforming our understanding of these enduringly popular works. Presented by EQT. See page 14 for the complete list of exhibition sponsors.

June 14: The Art of Pictorialist Photographers $30 ($24 members) Photography had a significant impact on the way artists began to see, and record, their world in the late 19th century. Like Impressionist painters, Pictorialist photog-raphers also gathered together in loose-knit societies where they shared an interest in exquisitely crafted, unique prints that revealed new ideas about modern subjects, focus, and “finish.” Join Linda Benedict-Jones, co-curator of Impressionism in a New Light, to explore how photography was carv-ing out its new place in the art world.

July 12: Impressionism in a New Light $30 ($24 members) Join Amanda Zehnder, co-curator of the exhi-bition, to investigate the complex nature of Impressionism as a unique social and artistic scene; as a style of painting associated with certain subjects; and as a term related to optics and expression.

August 9: Oakland: Pittsburgh’s City Beautiful Movement $45 ($39 members) Jean-François Raffaëlli’s 1899 painting Schenley Park, Pittsburg, on view in the exhibition Impressionism in a New Light, coincides with the emergence of Oakland as Pittsburgh’s response to the “City Beautiful” movement.

Light, Time, and Apparatus: From Pictorialism to 21st-Century Photography Saturday, June 9, 6:30–8 p.m.Galleries open until 9 p.m.Free; Reception follows

At the turn of the last century, world-renowned photographer Alfred Stieglitz was “determined that photography would be accepted as art.” He championed Pictorialism as the process that would achieve this end. Join us for an interest-ing and wide-ranging discussion in which four contemporary photographers—whose work is informed by the history of photog-raphy and its various processes—discuss their thoughts and ideas on photography’s foundational elements: Light, Time, and Apparatus. They’ll offer reflection on these influences in the creation of their work with an emphasis on control of the art during a time of commercial standardization and how this is used to counter the anonymous qual-ity of much of contemporary photography.

Presented with F295: Continued Explorations of 21st Century Photography Conference, June 7–10. To register for the full confer-ence, visit www.f295.org/2012.

June 21: Why Does That Color Look Like That Color? Scientific theories about color, light, and human perception abounded in the 19th century and were discussed and debated by Impressionist artists. Join Amanda Zehnder, co-curator of Impressionism in a New Light, for an observation-based discus-sion, and have fun with some color-theory experiments to discover the impact of scientific thinking on Impressionist methods for representing optical experiences, move-ment, light, and colors.

July 19: Old Materials, New ArchitectureAbandoned garage doors, used tires, 72,000 carpet tiles, old shipping containers… how have these and other unconventional materials resulted in creative solutions to architectural challenges and social inequities? Works by inventive architects including Samuel Mockbee and Teddy Cruz, on view in the Heinz Architectural Center, have done just that. Find inspiration in the galleries and put your own creativity to the test as you experiment with some unusual building materials.

The cafés, cabarets, music halls, and out-door theaters of 19th-century Paris served as the crossroads for bourgeois and bohe-mian cultures. The unknown, wealthy, famous, and infamous mingled with artists, writers, musicians, and performers in well-known establishments including Le Chat Noir, Le Mirliton, Le Moulin Rouge, Café Guerbois, and later, La Nouvelle-Athènes.

Join us for an evening evoking the environ-ment of a bawdy Parisian cabaret from La Belle Époque.

The emcee, played by Rob Frankenberry, will be your guide through musical selections, comedic monologues, and satirical skits. Projected images of art-work will help emphasize the role that café culture played for Impressionist artists. Featured performers also include Benjamin Binder, piano; Rob Frankenberry, tenor and piano; Liza Forrester, mezzo-soprano; and Joseph Gaines, tenor.
