Curator's Tour: Bill Smith
Curators take you on a new gallery tour each month, offering unique perspectives on all FWMoA exhibits. This month we discover Bill Smith: Jewelry's Maverick.
Born and raised in Madison, Indiana, Bill Smith (1933-1991) was one of the most innovative jewelry designers of the 1960s and ‘70s. His outlandish costume and body jewelry, often made from industrial materials and inspired by Africa and the Middle East, associated body ornamentation with movement and grandeur. His genius was recognized with a Coty Award in 1970 and an appointment to vice president of premier jewelry firm, Richelieu- both unprecedented feats for a Black designer.
However, in the 30 years since his death, Smith’s import...

The narrative realism of Gabriela Gonzalez Dellosso tells fascinating stories through her command of the human figure: female artists whose legacies have been undervalued by the authors of art history, solitary brides bedecked in their finery, and clowns in contemplative moments. In many of these works, the artist is the model, uniting her life, work, and legacy with those she portrays. In this...

Sculptor Robin Grebe uses the kiln casting method to produce her signature elongated figures that glow in translucent, delicately colored glass. Her work often features hidden interior elements to suggest an inner world, and hand-painted images on the exterior lend a delicacy to these otherwise commanding figures.

      Hi John, thank you for your comments and constructive feedback. We are also so disappointed in the audio quality of this and other earlier presentations. We were pivoting quickly during the pandemic and trying to create digital content for the benefit of our patrons but as we had no experience before this, it was a steep learning curve! We still want to share this tour by the curator, despite its flaws, because we feel the perspective is valuable. The closed captioning/subtitles are correct if that is any benefit to you. I hope that you were able to view more recent Curator's Tours where we have really increased our audio quality!

    Clearly articulated. I enjoyed his narrative. This work left me challenged. That’s great. Martin talked about the problems he had with the Four sided shape of the canvas which when applied with paint shifts from ground to field as his mark becomes figure ... but then chooses to set a four sided white ground behind the strokes in the exhibition - thereby activating the wall “as” the four-sided ground he was seeking to dissolve. This left me perplexed - the conundrum is that seeking to destroy all potential ground as field for figure only serves to activate any four sideness anywhere behind the figure as exactly the thing he’s trying to escape...what a mind fuck. I understood the dilemma of seeking to destroy the four sided ground in a world of four sidedness where field ‘ ground is inescapable. I think he failed to understand that potentially paint as mark and symbol of a semiotic conversation only served to highlight his nemesis the foursidedness of his exhibition space - a space he can not negate ... this then raises the potential for his work to be the semiotic discussion of a Martin work as a song tribute to four sidedness - or in essence ... it’s as if he’s trying to destroy any suggestion of a dance floor but the moment he starts dancing he activates that which he attempts to negate ... fascinating. Don’t shoot me for this criticism - I’m not attacking him as the creator of his mark. I’m comprehending deeper levels of his materiality and I have him to thank for this - and I’m deeply appreciative and grateful. I love, love, love his thinking, his philosophy, his materiality, his dance and his work. He achieves placing his work in the same space as the viewer. He achieved the index mark of the creator being preserved in the work to the degree where his mark as semiotic symbol “is” the work as opposed to the viewer seeing his mark “in” a work. Choosing to maintain the verticality in his exhibition meets the criteria of the world of painting. I wonder if his work is made in the horizontal first then situated in the vertical? If so then his mark doesn’t maintain the Horizontality of its creation...which isn’t a criticism at all rather an observation. How would resolve this if I were creating my own mark with paint as my material to ensure I maintained my Horizontality in the vertical? Is this better understood as sculpture rather than a painting? Is this then a shifter in terms of his materiality where he effectively is playing in the world of 3D with his work as opposed to the traditional employ of paint in the 2D? In terms of scale ... is his work still not large enough? What if his unique mark was on the scale of a building somewhere suspended in a public space somewhere where no reference to four sided ness exists? So many questions ... and I’m grateful for this response to Martin’s work.
