Ruth Asawa, “Untitled (S.514),” c. 1950s, copper wire, 13-1/2 x 16×16″, at Rena Bransten Gallery.

Artists currently investigating the gap between nature and culture with a certain ironic shrug might take a careful look at the long career of San Francisco artist Ruth Asawa, which synthesizes her feeling for nature with Modernist ideas about abstraction and truth to materials. A small selection of her work since the 1950s provides a good introduction to the drawings, paintings, and the crocheted- or tied-wire sculptures for which she is best known. The crocheted-wire pieces, hanging in strands from the ceiling, suggest onions, plant bulbs, droplets, bubbles and fruits (the visible seeds and swelling shells suggesting botanical mother and child), while their open-weave construction invokes basketry and mathematical models. The tied-wire sculptures are flat, symmetrical dendritic wall-hanging pieces suggesting hexagonal sprays of foliage, root balls, fireworks, electrical discharges (as in Van de Graaf generators), stars and mandalas. The drawings “Pine Tree,” “Redwood Trees,” “Owl,” “Waves,” “Watermelon,” “Chrysanthemum” and “Imogen Cunningham”depict California’s natural landscape (including one of its eminent photographers) through a synthesis of traditional Eastern stylization and revolutionary Western abstraction.

Uh Oh she got her photoshop going!

O.K. Now my ass is going to get really flat!

Sitting and playing with this is going to take over my life!

I love this sh*t

OMG

Courage

Wow

Yikes

Patience now…

OCD is good……sometimes

Why won’t it do what I command it to do?

This is NOT what I wanted it to do.

Why’s it doing that when I press that?

How do you outline?

How do you work this…arghhhh

O.K. I’m over it

For now

Done!

Sit Down and Rise Up!…24 hour Meditation Marathon

Sit Down Rise Up: Come Say Hello!Friday November 6, 2009

Categories: Meditation

By Stillman Brown

If you live in New York, take a stroll by ABC Home and Carpet at Broadway and 19th St. before tomorrow at 7PM to lend your support (or just say hi) to the ID Project’s Sit Down Rise Up 24-hour meditation marathon. It’s attracting a lot of attention and there’s a great energy happening so far. The folks sitting the entire 24 hours, including ID Project founder Ethan Nichtern, will need your good vibes! 

 

This event is over now, but I had to post it because of it’s brilliance. Maybe organize one in your home town!
