A panel discussion with curator Daniel Mason and artists Arthur Ganson, Christina Campanella, Chehalis Hegner, and Randall Okita will take place on November 2 from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m. in the Adler Theater, and will be followed by an opening reception from 5 to 7 p.m. An artist and curator talk will be held at 6 p.m. in the Kresge Gallery. The exhibition will showcase the career of Boston-based artist Arthur Ganson, and feature more than 20 works that span the past 30 years of his achievement in kinetic art and video. Arthur Ganson: Kinetic Mandala will include seminal sculptures from Gansons career including Cloud (1978), Machine with Wishbone (1988), Machine with Breath (1992), Machine with 11 Scraps of Paper (1999), Thinking Chair(2007), and My Little Violin (2009), along with video works dating from 1982 to the present. The artists working process will be examined through the presentation of several working drawings, all of which directly relate to the conceptual and technical evolution of sculptures in the exhibition. Works inspired by Gansons art will also be featured including a musical score by Carlos Sanchez-Gutierrez, photographs by Chehalis Hegner, and a short film by Randall Okita. In addition to these extant works, two new pieces have been specifically commissioned for this exhibition. New York-based composer Christina Campanella will create a live-sound installation that utilizes noises produced in real time from Gansons sculpture Machine with Breath; and Boston-based photographer Chehalis Hegner has created a photograph that serves as the exhibitions poster image. Arthur Ganson was born in Hartford, Connecticut in 1955, and received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of New Hampshire in 1978. Ganson was an artist-in-residence at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and has been an invited speaker at the TED conference, and at the Long Now Foundation. An ongoing exhibition of Gansons work has been on display at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Museum since 1998. Arthur Gansons works have been exhibited widely and are in the permanent collections of the Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C.; Phaeno Science Center in Wolfsburg, Germany; Copernicus Science Centre in Warsaw, Poland; and the Honolulu Academy of Art in Hawaii. Lighting for the 鶹 exhibition has been designed by Mary Ann Hoag, Lighting Designer for the Guggenheim Museum, New York. An illustrated, on-line catalogue will be available. The 鶹 Curatorial Prize is awarded each year to a second year graduate student at Bard Colleges Center for Curatorial Studies. Daniel Mason won the award in 2010 for his Arthur Ganson exhibition proposal. This project is supported in part by the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a Partner Agency of the National Endowment for the Arts. Gallery hours are Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday 1 through 5 p.m. and Wednesdays 1 through 7 p.m. For further information, please contact Sydney Jenkins, Director of Art Galleries, at (201) 684-7147.
