April 10: WILLIAM HOGARTH'S ART Repost

March 28, 2007

Public contact: Martha Kennedy (202) 707-9115

SWANN FELLOW TO LECTURE ON WILLIAM HOGARTH
AND THE ART OF GESTURE AT LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, APRIL 10

Swann Foundation Fellow Hope Saska will explore the connection between the popular graphic satire of William Hogarth, whose art presented amusing yet cautionary tales of human behavior, and the staging of theatrical productions in the 18th century, in a lecture at the Library of Congress on April 10.

Saska will present the lecture, titled “Of Attitude and Action: William Hogarth and the Art of Gesture,” at noon on Tuesday, April 10, in Dining Room A on the sixth floor of the James Madison Building, 101 Independence Ave. S.E., Washington, D.C.

Saska’s illustrated presentation is based on research conducted at the Library of Congress during her fellowship awarded by the Swann Foundation for Caricature and Cartoon. The Library administers the Swann Foundation. The lecture, sponsored by the foundation and the Library’s Prints and Photographs Division, is free and open to the public; no reservations are required.

Hogarth (1697-1764), the versatile English painter and satirist often called “the father of English caricature,” became well known for his paintings of “modern moral subjects,” also published as print series. At a time when actors were urged to study the fine arts  particularly paintings of historical subjects and ancient sculpture  for samples of gesture and expression to enliven the characters they portrayed on stage, Hogarth turned to theatrical metaphor to describe his two-dimensional “performances” on canvas and the engraved page.

In her lecture, Saska will argue that the practices in staging a theatrical production are analogous to the artistic process of creating two-dimensional scenes in visual art. As such, the motions the artist makes with his hand and arm to draw on the page or to inscribe a copper plate are synonymous with the gestures a performer makes in front of an audience.

Investigating Hogarth’s analogy between theatrical performance and art making, Saska’s lecture will focus on key passages of Hogarth’s 1753 treatise, “The Analysis of Beauty,” and on his engravings, especially the second illustrative plate to the text, often referred to as “The Country Dance.” She will argue that Hogarth’s theatric metaphor allowed artists, especially those working with graphic media, to envision their processes of art-making as a new category of performance.

Saska is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of History of Art and Architecture at Brown University, where she also completed her master’s degree in the field. Her dissertation, titled “Staging the Page: Graphic Satire in Eighteenth Century England,” examines shared aspects of theatrical performance and graphic satire and caricature in 18th century London.

In addition to being one of three Swann Fellows for 2006-2007, Saska is a curatorial assistant at the David Winton Bell Gallery in the List Art Center of Brown University.

This presentation is part of the Swann Foundation’s continuing activities to support the study, interpretation, preservation and appreciation of original works of humorous and satiric art by graphic artists from around the world. The foundation customarily awards one fellowship annually (with a stipend of $15,000) to assist scholarly research and writing projects in the field of caricature and cartoon. More information about the fellowship is available through the Swann Foundation’s Web site: www.loc.gov/rr/print/swann/swannhome or by e-mailing swann@loc.gov.

April 21: Library of Congress Lecture on South African Artist William Kentridge

Library of Congress
101 Independence Ave. SE
Washington DC   20540 

March 25, 2011

Public contact:  Martha Kennedy (202) 707-9115, mkenn@loc.gov

 

Swann Foundation Fellow Leora Maltz-Leca
To Discuss the Work of South African Artist William Kentridge, April 21

South African artist William Kentridge is considered one of the most significant artists working today.  He is largely responsible for bringing drawing in general—and animated drawing in particular—to the forefront of contemporary international art.

 Swann Foundation fellow Leora Maltz-Leca will discuss the artist's work in her lecture "William Kentridge: 'Stone Age Drawing,' Cartoon Logic and South Africa's Process of Change" at noon on Thursday, April 21, in the Whittall Pavilion on the ground floor of the Thomas Jefferson Building, 10 First Street. S.E., Washington, D.C.

 In her illustrated talk, Maltz-Leca will relate Kentridge's studio processes of drawing and animation to South Africa's transformative political change, and address the peculiar timeliness of Kentridge's method.  He developed his distinctive process of animation in 1989, the same year that ushered in the seismic changes that finally ended apartheid in South Africa.

Kentridge, born in 1955, is well-known for a signature animation process that he describes as "stone age."  In this process, Kentridge continuously draws and erases on a single charcoal drawing, all the time taking photographs of his changing drawing.  He then films his photographic record and, thereby, produces film narratives that often feature his stock characters Soho Teitelbaum and Felix Eckstein.

In her lecture, Maltz-Leca will trace the genesis of Kentridge's animation method to early cartoon strips and flip-books.  She will ultimately argue that Kentridge's timely embrace of the dynamism of animation—a medium that speaks of material change—suggests how his unorthodox animation process is embedded in political processes of revolutionary change.

Maltz-Leca is an assistant professor in the History of Art Department at the Rhode Island School of Design.  She is the recipient of the 2011 Creative Capital/Warhol Foundation Arts Writer's Grant, and she is completing a book on Kentridge titled "Process as Metaphor and Other Doubtful Enterprises."  Maltz-Leca holds a bachelor's degree in philosophy from Yale, a master's from Brown University and a master's and doctorate in art history from Harvard.

This presentation, sponsored by the Swann Foundation and Prints & Photographs Division, is part of the foundation's continuing activities to support the study, interpretation, preservation and appreciation of original works of humorous and satiric art by graphic artists from around the world. The Swann Foundation's advisory board is comprised of scholars, collectors, cartoonists and Library of Congress staff members. The foundation strives to award one fellowship annually to assist scholarly research and writing projects in the field of caricature and cartoon.  Applications for the 2012-2013 academic year are due Feb. 15, 2012.
