Continuing through May 10, 2015
Gallery of the Art of the Western World, Doris Steinmetz Kellett Endowed Gallery of Twentieth-Century Art, first floor
In 1941 Onya LaTour opened the Indiana Museum of Modern Art near Nashville, Indiana, creating a stir in local art circles. Two works from her personal collection are featured in this installation presented in conjunction with Onya LaTour on view at the Indianapolis Museum of Art this fall, to which the IU Art Museum loaned four pieces.

Focalpoint: Traditional Changes: Art from the American Southwest
Continuing through February 15, 2015
What does it mean to call an object “traditional” or “authentically Native American”? Explore these questions through examples of basketry, ceramics, textiles, and jewelry that came into being as a result of interactions with other Native American groups, contact with non-Native admirers and markets, or particular happenstances in a community’s history. Organized by Emma Kessler, curatorial assistant for the arts of Africa, the South Pacific, and the Americas.

WWI War Bond Posters
Continuing through May 24, 2015
During World War I, mass-produced color posters encouraged enlistment, helped raise capital for the war effort, and solidified public opinion against the enemy. Two vintage posters for war bonds, one American and one French, are featured: although both depict a German soldier, they have very different styles and impacts.

Nature’s Small Wonders: Photographs by Ansel Adams
Continuing through May 24, 2015
America’s most famous nature photographer, Adams was also an ardent conservationist who served on the board of directors for the Sierra Club for thirty-seven years and was active in the Wilderness Society. He used his dramatic black-and-white photographs to encourage the preservation of America’s natural wonders, particularly those found in the U.S. National Parks.

This installation is on view from January 13 through May 24, 2015, in the Gallery of the Art of the Western World, Doris Steinmetz Kellett Endowed Gallery of Twentieth-Century Art.

Finding Atget
Continueing though May 24, 2015

This installation features a vintage print by Atget and several later prints from his original negatives.

Women behind the Camera
Continuing through May 24, 2015
The world of professional photography in the early- to mid-twentieth century was largely a men’s club, but a small group of talented women paved the way for future generations of female “lensmen.” Portraits by three of these pioneers—Imogen Cunningham, Berenice Abbott, and Toni Frissell—are featured.

Pop Textiles
Continuing through May 24, 2015
Textiles designed by Pop artists Roy Lichtenstein, Richard Lindner, and Claes Oldenburg are featured. These bold and inventive compositions on fabric blur the boundaries between fine art, craft, and industrial production.

Robert Salmon: Romantic Painter

Celebrate this holiday season with local art and help keep Bloomington vibrant! For the holiday months, By Hand Gallery has put together a special show featuring our local Bloomington artists. The show highlights more than 45 artists and a variety of media, with choice fine art pieces by Rudy Pozzatti.

The Grunwald Gallery at Indiana University is pleased to announce Slow Hand. This exhibition will open Friday, January 16 and continue through Friday, February 13. F Scott Hess will give a lecture on his work on Friday, January 16th at 5:00 pm, with an opening reception following from 6:00 to 8:00 pm at the Grunwald Gallery.

The exhibition Slow Hand aims to emphasize the rewards of sensuous touch and imagination in recent painting. Departing from the strictly observed gives the artist free reign in the manipulation of the chosen subject matter. In opposing the perceptual or ocular response to a given subject, the artists in this exhibit approach painting from a conceptual and conceived perspective, resulting in imaginative and sometimes fantastical images that are narrative in nature. Rather than being subservient to the literal appearance of the world or by only admitting events and characters that are likely to occur in everyday life, the artist allows the imaginative and subconscious point of view to exist or even dominate. These artists frequently use techniques, such as glazing or an obsessive attention to detail, that could not be accomplished using perceptual techniques. This way of developing a painting privileges the emotional and psychological over the journalistic and quotidian – or rather, it allows the journalistic and the quotidian to be transformed in order to arrive at a greater emotional and psychological truth.

Bloomington, IN – The Grunwald Gallery at Indiana University is pleased to announce Implied Action: Performance Through Object. This exhibition will open Friday, January 16 and continue through Friday, February 13. An opening reception will be held on Friday, January 16 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm at the Grunwald Gallery.

Implied Action: Performance Through Object is an exhibition featuring four Visiting Assistant Professors in the Henry Radford Hope School of Fine Arts at Indiana University. Carissa Carman (Textiles), Mike Calway-Fagen (Sculpture), Carrie Mae Smith (Fundamentals) and Keith Allyn Spencer (Fundamentals) either make objects or use found items to convey the history of, presence of, or potential for performance. These objects range from an article of clothing suggesting the act of wearing; to those that have a history of action, whether artistic or utilitarian; to objects that document and become evidence of past performance. While these artists teach in various areas of IU’s studio art department, it is evident that process, object, and performance are integral to each artist’s studio practice. Implied Action: Performance Through Object is curated by Marla Roddy, Public Relations Coordinator at the Grunwald Gallery of Art.

The Kinsey Institute art and library collections contain thousands of examples of erotic imagery produced over centuries by artists around the world. Secret Impressions presents a selection of lithographs, engravings, etchings and woodblock prints from the mid-19th century and earlier. These artworks from France, England, Italy, Germany, Holland, and Japan illustrate the means by which pornographic and erotic images were mass produced before the invention of the camera. Wealthy collectors could commission paintings, but others could purchase prints at a lower cost. Once photography was invented in the 1830s, it quickly became a popular medium for depictions of the nude figure, as well as erotic imagery. The first photographic process to become widespread was the daguerreotype, which produced a unique image. With the invention of a process that used a negative to make multiple photographs, the mass production of erotic images became possible. Hold That Pose features daguerreotypes, tintypes, albumen and gelatin silver prints, stereocards, and other examples of photographic processes that were used in the 19th century by professional photographers to produce and distribute erotic material.

The Kinsey Institute is open to visitors from 1:30 to 5:00 pm weekdays or at other times during office hours by appointment only. Admission is free. Due to adult content, visitors should be 18 years of age or older, unless accompanied by a parent or guardian. To schedule a group guided tour of The Kinsey Institute, please call 812-855-7686.

Winner of the Palme d’Or of the 2014 Cannes Film Festival, Ceylan’s most recent film blends elements of Ibsen, Dostoyevsky, and Chekhov into a three-part symphony in dialogue. Aydin (Bilginer) imagines himself the local potentate in the district of Anatolia that surrounds his mountaintop hotel. A former actor who now bloviates in the local newspaper, Aydin’s supreme self-confidence blinds him to the resentment of those he takes to be his natural subjects—not just the villagers, but his wife and sister, who live with him in his mountain redoubt. Focusing on the seemingly unbridgeable divisions between classes and generations, Ceylan develops his themes of guilt, responsibility, faith, and spirituality into a family drama with deep implications. In Turkish; English subtitles. (2K DCP. 196 min. Not Rated)
