Do Numbers Count in Visual Arts:

A look at some modern examples where they might- Speaker John G. Hatch

Rarely does one meet an artist who has a love for mathematics. In fact, quite a few became artists because they hated the subject in high school or, put more simply and honestly, they just weren’t good at it. As with everything, there are exceptions. I’ll be looking at some examples of modern artists who were fascinated by the role mathematics and its products could play in art. Their interests will range from non-Euclidean geometries, space-time formulations, irrational and imaginary numbers, 3-D mathematical models, and sequences such as the Fibonacci numbers. In many cases, the results were highly innovative even if the understanding was rudimentary and occasionally wrong.

The seminar meets in zoom online, and is jointly co-hosted with Nature Collab and the Department of Mathematics

Topic: Art and Math Seminar John Hatch

Time: Nov 14, 2024 12:00 PM Central Time (US and Canada)

About the speaker: Dr. John G. Hatch is associate professor of art history in the Department of Visual Arts at Western University in London Ontario where he teaches modern art and design. He received his doctorate from the University of Essex (U.K.) in art history and theory. Dr. Hatch’s research has frequently examined the points of convergence between art and science. His articles have looked at a range of topics including the geometry of ancient Greek temple design, the influence of Keplerian cosmology on Italian Baroque architecture, entropy’s role in the earthworks of Robert Smithson, and most recently the impact of relativistic theories on De Stijl architecture and design. The sciences are also a key focal point in the monographs Dr. Hatch has written on the Canadian landscape painters Paterson Ewen and Kazuo Nakamura.

Spaces Between Exhibition

The Chapman Gallery at Kansas State University, now through November 28, presents Spaces Between, a ceramic exhibition featuring artists Andrea Moon and Dryden Wells. This show invites viewers into a dialogue about process, exploring surface design, materiality, and the negative spaces within their ceramic forms. The exhibition encourages the audience to look beyond the tangible aspects of the artwork to reflect on form and content through the spaces created. It's an innovative showcase of how clay can be used to construct deeper conceptual and visual layers.

Artist Biographies:

Andrea Moon constructs complex ceramic structures through the repetition of simple forms. By stacking stoneware ribbons or building coils into basket-like structures, Moon produces networks with each piece relying on its neighbor to build a larger whole. Outside of the studio, Moon has prioritized the construction of a strong arts community, directing residency and education programs at the Red Lodge Clay Center, The Pottery Workshop in Jingdezhen, China, and Craft Alliance in St. Louis. She currently is a lecturer of ceramics at Washington University, St. Louis.

"Party Mix" Exhibition by Visiting Artist Cori Crumrine

Kansas State University Department of Art presents "Party Mix" an exhibition by Cori Crumrine. The  exhibition will run from May 20-24, 2024 in the Mark A. Chapman Gallery,  first floor of Willard Hall. Gallery hours are 8am – 5pm, Monday through Friday. Admission is free and open to the public.

Statement from the Artist, "Utilizing a medley of saccharine palettes and confectionary forms, I create small-scale sculptures exploring the intrinsic details of ambiguity. The work is presented as a simple, single-serving “eat me” temptation. Each piece emanates an individual curiosity; a need to determine whether the work is fresh or stale, artificial or organic, sweet or savory. The forms reference familiar shapes yet are ambiguous enough not to conjure an immediate label. Their bite-sized scale invites you to ponder their potential ingredients and intentions."

Cori Crumrine studied ceramics at Bowling Green State University (BFA 2013) and the University of Montana (MFA 2018), where she recognized her desire to pursue teaching. Cori has continued her creative studies through assistantships and residencies at the Penland School of Craft, Das Keramikkünstlerhaus Neumünster, Haystack Mountain School of Crafts, the New Harmony Clay Project, and Queen City Clay. She is currently a visiting instructor and artist-in-residence in the ceramics program at Kansas State University.

Kevin Bernstein Receives Faculty Development Award

Kevin Bernstein

Murmuration, 2024

Acrylic on Panel

h. 12 ½ x w. 24 ½ in

"Wings and Flutters, The CICA Museum, International Solo Exhibition South Korea," $3,500.

This marks Bernstein’s first international solo museum exhibition. The award allows Bernstein to travel to Korea for the exhibition at the CICA Museum, which will run from late May to early June 2024, at the Czong Institute for Contemporary Art. "Wings and Flutters” will showcase a new body of work exploring themes of flight, transformation, and the ephemeral beauty and mystery of nature. He considers how science, math, and technology have continually reshaped humankind's relationship to nature. While each gives a rationale to the other, nature serves as a way for deconstruction and as a mediator. Bernstein desires to reach a tipping point where the natural and artificiality of the made world are in symbiotic interplay, each consuming or subsuming the other.

K-State Department of Art Student Receives International Recognition!

Last month in Richmond Virginia during the annual National Conference on the Education of Ceramic Art (NCECA) K-State student Justice Catron was awarded first place in the undergraduate category for his artistic research. This peer reviewed exhibition was open to every university and college in America and Canada and is the single most competitive student exhibition in the field of ceramics. It coincides with the annual conference which brings in over 6500 attendees. When asked to comment on the selection of Catron’s work the jurors said “Justice received first not only for the depth of the concept of their work, but also for their meticulous considered craftsmanship. Each element in their installation was thoughtfully considered adding layers that enhanced the impact of the work. Negotiating the scale of the piece demonstrates dedication and a commitment to showcasing their work despite logistical challenges.”

Exhibition by Kyra Litwin

The Kansas State University Department of Art will present the exhibition, “Disintegrating Permanence,” by MFA Candidate Kyra Litwin from March 18-22 in the Mark A. Chapman Gallery in Willard Hall, Kansas State University campus. A reception will be held from 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm on Friday, March 22 in the gallery. Events are free and open to the public.

Kyra Litwin is originally from Appleton, Wisconsin and earned her Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Wisconsin at La Crosse, with a major in art and minor in archeology. She has participated in numerous regional exhibitions and has won several awards for her drawings and prints.

In her exhibition, Kyra explores her family history, and the palpable impact of generational exchange through drawing and printmaking processes. Her charcoal drawings, dry pigment screen prints, and three-dimensional works created by printing dry, unbound pigment onto sand emulate the passage of time and the concurrent, fading of memory wherein certain details are retained and immortalized, while others deteriorate, becoming blurred, distorted, and forgotten with time. Printing with dry unbound pigments, images are clear, concise, and intact in their initial state. When subjected to time and handling, they begin to distort and blur, becoming at times, reincorporated into the background of the page all together. Extending the conversation of her prints and drawings further, dry, unbound pigments are printed onto sand, producing sharp but transient impressions that will last only for the duration of the show. As the particles break down and the imagery becomes indiscernible, only its essence, and that of the moment remain.

BFA Capstone Exhibition

Kansas State University Department of Art will present the first of two BFA exhibitions of the fall semester featuring Holly Frakes, Michelle Jaramillo, and Sarah Presley. The artists will showcase an exhibition of their undergraduate artwork from December 4 through 8, 2023 in the Mark A. Chapman Gallery, first floor of Willard Hall. Gallery hours are 8am - 5pm, Monday through Friday. Please feel free to attend the reception with the artists on Friday evening, December 8, from 5:00 to 7:00pm in the gallery.

Painter Holly Frakes of Topeka, Kansas, creates imaginary worlds of shape and color. Each painting holds a world created through a structured composition and skewed perspective. “As a form of distraction, we dive into entertainment or other methods of escapism - yet now, these vices have begun to blur with what is real.” Her paintings question reality and sympathize with those who experience isolation from their modern lifestyle.

Photographer Michelle Jaramillo of Manhattan, Kansas, creates black-and-white photography rooted in the personal aspects of her life, from motherhood to her Mexican American heritage. In this new series of images, she has focused on place-based photography and captured immigrant households’ intimate interiors. She says, “Brimming with cultural artifacts, these spaces showcase their stories, traditions, and the timeless tapestry of the lives that have traversed borders.” Her images embody the connection to her heritage and the profound kinship to the Hispanic community in Manhattan, Kansas.

Sarah Presley is a printmaker from Spring Hill, Kansas, working in intaglio etchings, screenprint, and mixed media collage. Her work addresses how feelings like nostalgia and grief have personally affected her view of home. She says, “It is my hope to capture the notion of home in this print series and spark curiosity about the complexities that lie within each residence we pass by.” This is conveyed through explorations in color, fine linework, collage, and typography.

Visiting Artist Professor Emeritus Geraldine Craig Exhibition

What does it look like when we die? What happens to the energy of a life, when no longer contained by our skin? The architecture of skin is a threshold for so many desires and projections, from inside out and outside in. A membrane of intimacy, joy, and pain. Yet how do we forge a partnership with grief, when the vessel of skin is gone and dissipation of matter isn’t physics theory? Find the forgotten corners, breathe in the dust, shop for skin outside time.

Kansas State University Department of Art presents Shop for Skin an installation by Geraldine Craig. The  exhibition will run from October 16 through November 10, 2023 in the Mark A. Chapman Gallery, first floor of Willard Hall. Gallery hours are 8am – 5pm, Monday through Friday. Please feel free to attend the reception with the artists on Monday evening, November 6, from 4:30 to 6:00pm in the gallery. Admission is free and open to the public.

Geraldine Craig’s studio work has been exhibited throughout the United States and Europe, Mexico, Morocco, Japan. She completed a large art commission for University of Kansas Medical Center- Salina with Nelson Smith in 2018. Awards include the 2018-19 Artistic Innovations Grant by Mid-America Arts Alliance & National Endowment for the Arts; International Fellowship, Women’s International Study Center, Santa Fe; Dorothy Liesky Wampler Eminent Professor, James Madison University; Individual Artist Grant, Michigan Council for the Arts; James Renwick Senior Fellow in American Craft, Smithsonian Institution.

BFA Capstone Exhibition

Kansas State University Department of Art will present the second of two BFA Exhibitions of the spring semester featuring Charlie Bloede and Shayna Strahm. The artists will showcase an exhibition of their undergraduate artwork from May 8 through 12, 2023 in the Mark A. Chapman Gallery, first floor of Willard Hall. Gallery hours are 8am – 5pm, Monday through Friday. Please feel free to attend the reception with the artists on Friday evening, May 12, from 5:00 to 7:00pm in the gallery. Admission is free and open to the public.

Charlie Bloede, an artist from Grayslake, Illinois, explores the historical context of beautification through the medium of printmaking. She is inspired by fashion, trends, and societal expectations. Her prints utilize a combination of techniques such as watercolor screen monoprint, woodblock, and etching. She cuts and folds the prints to create 3D elements, bringing the narratives to life.

Printmaker Shayna Strahm of Sabetha, KS creates mixed media work incorporating many different printmaking techniques. Her work often features organic imagery and lines reflecting on the human struggle with identity and relationships. She states, “everyone can relate to the struggle of deciding who they want to be. I wanted to explore this struggle within my own experiences with relationships.” Her pieces reflect her internal struggle through the stark contrast of her woodblock prints and incorporation of the delicate female form.

The Mark A. Chapman Gallery on the first floor of Willard Hall, across from the art office, opened in 2005. Cheryl Mellenthin and Mark Chapman funded a complete renovation of the former Willard Hall Gallery, increasing the exhibition space to over 1,400 square feet along with 400 square feet dedicated to exhibition preparation and kitchen facilities.

BFA Capstone Exhibition

Kansas State University Department of Art will present the first of two BFA Exhibitions of the Spring semester featuring Charles Weckwerth and Justice Catron. The artists will showcase an exhibition of their undergraduate artwork from May 1 through 5, 2023 in the Mark A. Chapman Gallery, first floor of Willard Hall. Gallery hours are 8am – 5pm, Monday through Friday. Please feel free to attend the reception with the artists on Friday evening, May 5, from 5:00 to 7:00pm in the gallery. Admission is free and open to the public.

Charles Weckwerth is an artist currently working out of Manhattan, KS. He will receive his Bachelor in Fine Arts with concentrations in painting and printmaking. When he works, the lines between the two media seem blurred, through process and content. Charles creates etchings, screen prints, and large-scale paintings. Charles says, “I seek to convey a sense of humanity in my paintings, something people are drawn to.” His prints and paintings convey this through gestural mark making, material, the surplus, and the lack thereof.

Justice Catron works in Manhattan, KS as a ceramist making vessels with layers of glaze, decals, and luster. The surfaces created draw on imagery of classical Western movies and its interpretations in the 20^th century. He says, “My work examines my understanding and perception of identity through my experience as an indigenous person.” His use of modern imagery on traditionally inspired forms creates a juxtaposition between these themes that references ideas of self-portraiture, colonialization, and perseverance.

The Kansas State University Department of Art will present the exhibition, Collisions, by MFA Candidate Makenzie Burmeister from March 6-10 in the Mark A. Chapman Gallery in Willard Hall, Kansas State University campus. A reception will be held from 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm on Friday, March 10th in the gallery. Events are free and open to the public.

Makenzie Burmeister is originally from Gretna, Nebraska and earned her BFA in Art Education with an emphasis in Ceramics from the University of South Dakota. During her time there she played soccer and won multiple awards for her sculpture and ceramics pieces.

Collisions showcases site-reflective installation, drawing, and assemblage sculptures that combine the use of new digital applications with conventional ceramics and drawing processes. Cast and found materials evocative of construction and labor are recontextualized and combined through meditative, rhythmic, and highly repetitive action, transforming them from the mundane and industrial into explorative, expressive, and introspective works.
