Anderson Ranch Prints Exhibition
Show dates: March 1 thru April 3, 2004
Opening reception: March 5, 2004, 7 – 9 p.m.
This is an exhibition of prints on loan from Anderson Ranch Arts Center. Anderson Ranch Arts Center is a non-profit visual arts community located in the resort community of Snowmass Village, Colorado. Formerly a turn-of-the-century sheep ranch, Anderson Ranch was transformed into an artists’ community some 35 years ago.
As well as their regular curriculum, Anderson Ranch also offers workshops. Artists of all levels and ages go there for the opportunity to uncover, develop and stretch their creative spirits. Each summer, Anderson Ranch offers over 130 workshops taught by today’s most prominent artists and art educators who come to share their skills and experience with more than 1,200 participants.
The prints featured in the Anderson Ranch Printmaking Exhibition have been generously loaned to the CAS Gallery exclusively for our enjoyment. And are all works created by accomplished artists, but printmaking is not necessarily their main area of expertise. This exhibit offers 40 prints from 38 artists.

M.F.A Exhibition
This is an exhibition presenting the graduating Master of Fine Arts students. Each graduate is required to host a solo exhibition in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Fine Arts Degree. The graduates featured this semester are:
Helen Otterson ceramics
Show dates: May 16 thru 30, 2003
Opening reception: May 16, 2003, 6 – 8 p.m.
Artist’s statement: “My interest in biomorphic forms stems from my attraction to the human encounter with disease. Influenced by personal experience and microscopic images of human tissue, I create textured forms, which reference organic growths, in order to explore the relationship between health and disease. Juxtaposing geometric shapes and organic forms creates a metaphor for the relationship between the body’s structured function and the chaos of disease. Disease is an experience that radically transforms life through its ability to force a discussion about human suffering and survival.”
Marianne Levy ceramics
Show dates: May 16 thru 30, 2003
Opening reception: May 16, 2003, 6 – 8 p.m.
Artist’s statement: “Making art is like birthing ritual. For me, the element of surprise that comes form the materialization of an idea is the most exciting aspect of the creative process. Before a piece is finished I don’t want to know how it will be; Latent imagery is fed by all that surrounds me, and the result is like a bastard child whose origin is questionable. My goal as an artist is to stay in the unknown and to make art purely for the sake of discovery.
My work has primarily focused on the figure including both abstract and realistic representations, as well as hybrid forms combing human imagery with elements from nature and the animal world. Through the use and development of symbols, both personal and universal, my work reflects and gives insight into psychology that is individual and collective. The meanings are not always clear, especially since I may be intrigued by imagery for reasons that are not initially understood. Issues that seem to resurface time and again for me have to do with gender, sexuality, reappropriation of symbols and myths, and mental illness.
I have gained insight and inspirations from widely diverse resources, including other artists, cultures, experiences, myths, symbols and nature. My most recent and probably significant source of inspiration has been African American quilts like those found in the Gee’s Bend show at the Whitney this year. These quilts spoke to me of a process dependent heavily on intuition and spontaneity which I wanted to imitate in my own work.”
Jacqueline Fischel-Bock painting
Show dates: June 6 thru 13, 2003
Opening reception: June 6, 2003, 6 – 8 p.m.
Artist’s statement: “I love the process of casting, pouring, painting and layering. This use of media is a form of painting which transforms into sculpture. I make sheets of polymer emulsion that hang on the wall as if they are pictures yet behave like objects. I am inspired by nature. I have made ‘organic’ membranes from industrial plastic materials. The surfaces are like skin and assert a bodily presence without picturing one. They combine softness and hardness, opacity and translucence, pictorially and symbolism, the two dimensional and the three dimensional.”
Alexandra di Pietra painting
Show dates: June 16 thru 27, 2003
Opening reception: June 20, 2003, 6 – 8 p.m.
Artist’s statement: “My paintings depict moments of introspection and segments of daydreams in an attempt to monumentalize everyday objects and occurrences. I strive to create an instance in which the viewer’s sense of self and the portrait’s distinct individuality might feed off one another. I create work that is personal to me, dictated by my emotions and surroundings and I hope to offer a common humanity by confronting the viewer with another person staring back at them.”
James Dormer printmaking
Show dates: July 7 thru 18, 2003
Opening reception: July 11, 2003, 6 – 8 p.m.
Artist’s statement: “I have always been interested in the way things look – the realness of objects- their shapes, textures, colors, etc. Having a predilection for these elements has quite naturally led me to question and paint those things that intrigue me with materials for which I have an innate affinity. Equally important is the fact that I love paint – building surfaces that suggest forms and spaces that have a real, tangible existence. I believe in the principles of Abstract Expressionism - intuition, introspection, the importance of the process, and the creation of a new reality that acknowledges the significance of the medium itself. A good part of my work is really about these issues as well. I respond to visual elements – shape, color, space, etc, and the problems involved with getting these elements down with a sense of visual order.
Most of the work I am interested in and, indeed, my own imagery, deal with elements of draughtmanship – the understructure that gives the painting a certain feeling of force and cohesiveness. My imagery is derived from a range of sources – life, photography, imagination or pure automatism. Most often it’s a combination of these. In the end, I try to create a new reality – one that goes beyond any predetermined, literal definition or meaning.”
