SUMMARY:“Martin Kline: Allover” exhibition
DESCRIPTION:HEATHER GAUDIO FINE ART is pleased to present “Martin Kline: Allover\,” his third solo exhibition at the gallery. The show will open on January 23rd and run through March 6th\, 2021. \nThroughout the course of his career\, Kline has examined systems of historicism and presentation\, his focused and disciplined approach creating bodies of works in series\, each with their distinctive visual language. Among his many investigations\, Kline has looked to notions of authenticity\, sincerity and originality\, and\, as he states\, there comes a point when an artist “cannot escape Jackson Pollock.” For this exhibition\, Kline presents his newest group of paintings entitled Allover\, inspired by the drip technique he utilized in Dream of Pollock (for Kirk Varnedoe) back in 2007. \nThe multi-colored Allover series consists of\, for the most part\, strictly monochromatic abstractions. Created in a looser\, automatist fashion\, these paintings have a more fluid sensibility\, with random thread-like rivulets of pigment networked in and out of broader\, purposeful bands of color. Unlike previous series\, these paintings lack compositional focal points\, nor do they possess narrative characteristics seen in his Hammocks assemblages. The viewer’s eye is free to wander all over and engage with the painted surface indiscriminately. \nWhile Kline may be revisiting the spontaneous technique for which Pollock became famous\, the approach to painting with the panel positioned horizontally has been very much decidedly his own from early on. Kline has mostly worked on his surfaces laid horizontally\, typically on a tabletop—his signature additive approach to painting requiring the pull of gravity to fasten the pigments in situ while drying. For the most part\, Kline’s hand has had a direct touch through the use of a paintbrush on the paper\, panel or canvas. In the Allover paintings\, Kline is still working horizontally but he has severed the traditional anatomical connection\, distancing himself from the surface even more by placing the panels on the floor. This increased space relinquishes control for the drips and pours to act more randomly and allow for elements of surprise to occur. Most of the panels in this series lack confining frames and the sides are free of splashed pigments that reveal the process. The resulting suggestion is that the drips and thicker gestures of color travel beyond the picture plane. It is as if the viewer is getting a snapshot\, a window into elements that exist outside the painting’s boundaries. \nKline has enjoyed a prolific artistic career\, creating a continuum of output that draws from a wealth of sources including his own works. His paintings\, drawings and sculptures are represented in many notable private and public collections worldwide\, including the Albertina\, Vienna\, Austria; The Metropolitan Museum of Art\, New York; the Whitney Museum of Art\, New York and the Yale University Art Galleries\, New Haven\, CT. \nHeather Gaudio Fine Art specializes in emerging and established artists\, offering painting\, works on paper\, photography and sculpture. The gallery provides a full range of art advisory services\, from forming and maintaining a collection\, to securing secondary market material\, to assisting with framing and installation. The focus is on each individual client\, selecting art that best serves his or her vision\, space\, and resources. The six exhibitions offered every year are designed to present important talent and provide artwork appealing to a broad range of interests. Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday; 10:30am to 5:30pm; and by appointment.

SUMMARY:Making Conversation | A Virtual Discussion with Author Fred Dust
DESCRIPTION:Join Grace Farms Foundation\, UConn Department of Public Policy\, and Leadership Greater Hartford for a virtual discussion with Fred Dust\, former Senior Partner and Global Managing Director at the acclaimed design firm IDEO\, about his book\, Making Conversation. Mr. Dust will be joined by Dr. Mark Overmyer-Velázquez\, Professor of History & Latinx American Studies and Director of the Hartford Campus of the University of Connecticut. \n“We all know that leading conversations between groups who don’t see eye to eye is challenging. We’ve needed a road map for making these conversations productive and solutions-oriented\, and now we have one in Making Conversation.” \n—Arianna Huffington\, founder and CEO of Thrive Global \nConversations are one of the most fundamental means of communicating we have as humans. At their best\, conversations are unconstrained\, authentic and open—two or more people sharing thoughts and ideas in a way that bridges our individual experiences\, achieves a common goal. At their worst\, they foster misunderstanding\, frustration\, and obscure our real intentions. \nIn his practice as a designer\, Fred Dust began to approach conversations differently. After years of trying to broker communication between colleagues and clients\, he came to believe there had to be a way to design conversation itself with intention and purpose\, while retaining its artful and playful qualities. Making Conversation codifies what he learned and outlines the four elements essential to successful exchanges: Commitment\, Creative Listening\, Clarity\, and Context. Learn how these four elements\, taken together\, form a set of resources anyone can use to be more deliberate and purposeful in making conversations work\, and examine how we can come together to tackle difficult topics and bridge our individual experiences to achieve better communication.
