Opening Reception: Friday, May 12, 6-7:30pm

Arlington Center for the Arts is pleased to present REUNION: 10 Iranian Artists 10 Years Later, curated by the Safarani Sisters. One decade after graduating from art school at Tehran University, artist and curator duo “Safarani Sisters,” sought connection with their former peers. From their thoughtful questions, exchange of art, and reflections came a reinforced understanding of art and its ability to speak beyond language itself.

REUNION assembles these artists, passionate in supporting one another and making the world a happier place to live. Through their unique identities and journeys arises anchoring experiences in shared educational and environments. With the passage of ten years, REUNION celebrates these foundations and new discoveries in each individual artist and in the group as a community- catalyzing thoughtfulness about the artists’ themes and challenging monolithic perspectives. REUNION is a continuation of the artistic careers these artists embarked on 10 years ago, brought back into the same space for continued growth and learning with the greater community and exploring the impact of a shared educational experience on their own artmaking as individuals and as a community of learners.

Arlington Center for the Arts is pleased to present Labor of Life: Textiles + Fiber, curated by fiber artist and educator, Kristina Goransson. Historically, textiles have been a part of what moves cultures forward: Innovations like spinning fibers together to create thread have been instrumental in survival from the beginning of human existence. Cultures around the world have used textiles as currency, to show wealth and power, and as an everyday tool. In today’s world, we may take for granted the impact textiles have had on every aspect of our lives but there is a resurgence of textile art that is honoring this history.

The artwork in Labor of Life: Textiles + Fiber showcases the diverse techniques that encompass the world of textiles. From intricate tapestry weaving to paper sculpture, the exhibit hopes to engage the viewer in possibilities. Artists are using traditional techniques to speak of contemporary subject matters while others are using new innovations within textiles, pushing the medium forward. Textiles will always be part of human evolution as it is elemental to our survival; It is used as an aesthetic tool to express our ideas and identities as well as improving life with innovative new technologies. The art in Labor of Life: Textiles + Fiber is a slice of what is possible.

This concept is interwoven into the work of the five artists that comprise ACA’s newest exhibit, Integrated Cycles: Artists Respond to Our Changing Earth, curated by Emily Belz. The artists— Richard Alan Cohen, Cedric Harper, Shelby Meyerhoff, Ponnapa Prakkamakul, and Stefanie Timmermann—invite viewers to consider topics ranging from climate change, to our interconnectedness to animal species, to how we form more purposeful relationships to landscapes and space. Part reverie, part warning, and part call to action, the artists and artworks in this exhibit summon the richness and diversity of our Planet and the role each of us plays in shaping its future.

The Arlington Center for the Arts is pleased to present its Fall exhibition REAL! This exhibit celebrates the beauty, technical precision, and advancement of the realism art canon through a variety of creative perspectives. Co-curators and artists, Gwen Chasan and Dan Cianfarini incorporated works selected by juror Phil Young to create an intricate tapestry of local artists’ subjects.

The artwork in REAL! ranges from exuberant photorealism to quiet studies produced with subtle lines and muted colors. The variety in this exhibition bears witness not only to the continuing appeal of artistic realism, but also acknowledges the difficulty of defining "representational art." While highly representational art has fallen in and out of popularity, it has enjoyed a continuous following of those who find pleasure, value, and meaning in seeing "what is" through the eyes of another artist.

Arlington Center for the Arts invites the public to join us in the celebration of our greater community members’ masterful interpretations of the world around them.

Artwork in this exhibit address concepts of fundamental rights and freedoms in our society through a variety of subjects and mediums.

This exhibit honors the Suffrage movement and the passing of the 19th Amendment, but it is not limited to this historic moment. It serves as a reminder that these rights are hard won and need to be protected and not taken for granted. The Suffrage fighters give us inspiration, courage and hope to move forward and face the struggles we see in our community, our country, and our world today.

This subject and dialogue are as important now as they have ever been and we welcome the opportunity to provide a platform of inclusion and equity to all artists. We are committed to presenting this exhibition opportunity as a way to amplify voices of those most marginalized by societal oppression, racism, and discrimination of any kind.

EXHIBITION JUROR: Laura McPhee, Photographer & MassArt Professor

About our Juror: Laura McPhee was born in Manhattan and grew up in central New Jersey. She earned her BA from Princeton University and an MFA from Rhode Island School of Design, and is currently a professor at the Massachusetts College of Art and Design. She lives in Brookline, MA. She is noted for her stunning large-scale landscapes and portraits of the people who live and work in them. She is currently working in the desert west of the United States where she is chronicling visual stories about time, both geologic and human. A serpentine river cuts deep incisions in the land over ages. A gold mine on the edge of the Black Rock Desert has the earth slashed open and its ruddy interior revealed. A still-life found at the edge of an alkali flat reveals intricate details of daily life—a tiny plastic toy among shards of glass and rust, a penny, machine parts, and desert varnished tin cans. All contemplate the unintended consequences of humanity’s attempts to control and manage nature and how we use the earth and to what ends. A meditation on our material lives and on climate change, the images depict our paradoxical approaches as we at once protect, alter, and extract from the land.

Special thanks to our Nurture/Nature Sponsor

Everything is Alive: My Search for God in Nature

Photographs by Roy Crystal

On View: February 6 - April 30, 2020

Opening Reception: February 27, 7-9 pm

"Much of my work has been in natural places in New England and the American West. My work explores natural processes of change, growth, decay, death, and renewal.

In this show I bring together mages taken over more than fifty years where I felt something undefinable. I find it in sacred places where people have felt a sense of spirit or God in the landscape, when special light transforms an ordinary place, when I see the weight of millions of years of geologic time in the rocks, and when I can feel the beauty and conciousness of an animal.

In this show I want to share some moments with you where I felt a sense of spirit, of God, in nature, and in the city, since it is all one. I want to offer you encouragement in this dark time that there is beauty and profound meaning in the world. Have you felt something similar? If so please share it with me. I would love to hear it." - Roy Crystal

"For many years, I was a professional educator. However, as an avocation, photography has always been part of my life. Recently, in my retirement, I have had time to try some photo-artistic ideas. Building on explorations I tried when younger, I have explored various forms of artistic photo-manipulation -- photo-montage and photo collage. I particularly enjoy finding patterns in nature and building on them."

From curators Ann Hirsch and Jeremy Angier:

"For at least 70,000 years humans have expressed themselves using color, line and shape. Though the media have changed over the millennia - flaming torches and ground earth have given way to electric spotlights and polymer paint formulations - the works in this exhibition still rely on the same essential elements of color, line and shape to give voice to our dreams and memories, vocabulary for our thoughts and ideas, and ignition to spark our imaginations.

"As collaborative artists and arts educators, we are continually struck by the incredible range of expressive potential accessible to us all with today's materials and processes. From wool felt collage to tile mosaic, from ink drawing to jeweled construction, from traditional media like watercolor to contemporary digital photography, each piece in this exhibition can stand alone as a testament to individual expression. Taken as a whole, the collection of work in SPARK! presents a diverse tapestry of the enduring creative spark and reflects the myriad ways ACA nourishes our community. Read more...
