STATEMENT:My work reflects a deep involvement with my native New Mexico –not as much visually as spiritually.My childhood was a melting pot of surreal attitudes surrounded by such diversities as the Spanish Penitentes, early Catholic retablos, and American Indian artifacts. All were woven among family tales and myths. My ancestors were among the first Spanish settlers of Northern New Mexico.As I grew up, I felt the tragedy and the glory of the people and the landscape. Incubating within me, these attitudes and remembrances continue to inform my work.I enjoy juxtaposing the frightening with the beautiful – the comic with the tragic –The real with the unreal.My adult self, my schooled self, my Chicago Self has embraced such western artists as Hieronymus Bosch, James Ensor, Paul Delvaux and, but certainly not least, the Mexican masters as well.-Eleanor Spiess-Ferris

For all you fiber artists out there..

Urban knitters spin yarn into graffiti - CNN.com

www.cnn.com

Forget spray-painting crude symbols under the cover of night. Colorful knitters armed with needles and skeins of yarn are unleashing their own brand of colorful guerrilla art to breathe new creativity and spirit into the machismo of urban art.

The Feminist Evolution

Museums are exhibiting an increased sensitivity to collecting and presenting works by women— through new acquisitions, solo shows, and a stronger focus on artists who were previously neglected. But true gender equality, critics maintain, remains elusive....

A Different Kind of Opening Night

Last night several women (and a few men!) gathered for a WCA Night Out at Spirits in Alton. We chatted, ate delicious food and downed $3 cosmos. Christine, Evie, Pat, and I spent a couple hours on Tuesday afternoon taking down the “On the Wall” fiber show and putting up the new artwork: lovely landscape paintings by Evie Schuart and some beautiful fiber work by Pat Owoc.

Seeing the work hanging in the space yesterday made me realize how much talent we have in the WCA. Having the opportunity to sit down to dinner and chat with fellow members reminded me of how wonderful and inspiring it is to be in the presence of other artists.

Our WCA Nights Out at Spirits are different from usual gallery openings. I love the opportunity to enjoy each others' company and to network. I learned about a possible job opportunity, gained new perspective on what “art as activism” can mean, and enjoyed learning what the other women have been up to.

If you haven’t been attending the Nights Out, I encourage you to make the trek up to haunted Alton to hang out with us.

CALL for ART-

from the Center: NOW!

Deadline: Sat. Oct 17

Host:

National WCA

Location:	Woman Made Gallery
	Chicago, IL

Juror: Lucy Lippard

Prospectus: nationalwca.org

More info:

janice_nesser@nationalwca.org

The exhibition 'From the Center now' will be juried by feminist author and art historian Lucy Lippard. The exhibition's theme is a play on words taking in account Lippard's groundbreaking volume of feminist art criticism "From the Center."

The exhibition's aim is to revisit the themes and concerns of Lippard’s book in order to illustrate both where women’s art has been as well as what it looks like in the first decade of the 21st Century. In the 70’s Lippard noted that some feminist artist had chosen a fundamentally sexual or erotic imagery a response to women being objectified in art historically. Others celebrated the female experience where birth, motherhood, rape, maintenance, household imagery, windows, menstruation, autobiography, family background and portraits of friends figured prominently. Some created more politically charged work with posterlike content. Others utilized materials and colors traditionally denigrated as “ feminine,” or in a more symbolic or abstract parallel to their experiences, images of veiling, confinement, enclosure, pressures, barriers, constrictions, as well as of growth, unwinding unfolding and sensuous surfaces were common. Still others dealt with organic life images and some started with the self as subject, moving from the inside outward. All of this work exchanges stylistic derivation for the other work that was happening at that time creating insight into a potential female culture.

Has this female culture been fully realized in 2010? What does our art look like now? How has it changed? How has it remained the same? Where do we go from here. " From the Center Now will show how women's art has shifted, progressed–or remained the same—since the seventies.

Special attention will be given to the work of women artists from the Midwest region, the host region - giving an added dimension to the term '“from the center.'”
