Our research for Children in Art: A Century of Change produced an endless repertory of children's images by artists in virtually every representational style and era. In responding to our requests for works for the exhibition, several museums noted that the pictures requested were among their most popular images with visitors and were central to their educational programs. Notwithstanding the impress in that children in art might only be a trivial or sentimental topic for academic art history, there is a sustained and growing interest in the subject. During the past twenty years, numerous works on children in art have appeared. These include studies of images in main stream art history, folk art, and photography, as well as advertising and illustration."

]]> Haggerty Museum of Art, Marquette University Marquette Then and Now: Images Celebrating 125 Years of Faith and Learning in Action http://epublications.marquette.edu/haggerty_catalogs/100 http://epublications.marquette.edu/haggerty_catalogs/100 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 11:01:22 PDT "With over a century of living history to its credit, it is fitting that the members of the Marquette University community should choose to reflect on what it was and what it has become. The Haggerty Museum, now into its 23rd year of service on the campus, both exemplifies how far the University has come and provides a suitable venue for the event.

Photography, whose existence extends only slightly longer than the 125 years chronicled here, offers a medium of convenience to tell the story. In this instance, the photographs are of ordinary lived experiences, places or events marking the passage of time. A special feature of this particular exhibition is its double-play on the elements of time. Historic photographs in the exhibition reference particular moments of the past as icons, while the contemporary photographs of related incidents are juxtaposed with the earlier ones. The photographs are not intended as art photography. Rather, they document the memories of people and places important to the evolution of Marquette University’s campus life."

Martin Kline’s issues center on the role nature plays in creating art in the twenty-first century. He has executed thirty encaustic paintings and thirteen bronzes, all unique casts, to explore this subject. It is his first solo museum exhibition and the exhibition takes place at the Haggerty Museum of Art, Marquette University, February 1 through April 10, 2007."

Prints by Utagawa Hiroshige, Katsushika Hokusai and artists of the Utagawa School demonstrate the traditional Japanese woodblock prints. The woodblock process, similar to that employed by artists in Europe in the sixteenth century, was adapted from Chinese techniques by the Japanese to create commercial prints. Japanese printers were adept at producing books, so the transition to creating first monochromatic and then full-color prints was achieved by around 1765. The Haggerty collection has numerous works by important teachers, such as Katsukawa Shunsho and Utagawa Toyokuni I, along with rival artists, Kunisada and Kuniyoshi, of the Utagawa School."

]]> Haggerty Museum of Art, Marquette University India Poems: The Photographs of Milwaukee Artist Waswo X. Waswo http://epublications.marquette.edu/haggerty_catalogs/96 http://epublications.marquette.edu/haggerty_catalogs/96 Mon, 17 Sep 2012 14:44:44 PDT India Poems: The Photographs of Milwaukee Artist Waswo X Waswo is the most recent in an on-going series of exhibitions at the Haggerty featuring the works of contemporary local photographers. Born and raised in Milwaukee, after several trips to the subcontinent, Waswo decided to pack up his belongings, camera in tow, and immerse himself in the life and culture of India.

With images that recall the nineteenth-century Pictorialist tradition, Waswo's photographs capture what the artist describes as the timeless quality of life in rural India. Waswo is aware of the aesthetic and political minefield he walks through as a contemporary Western artist creating images that "seek to keep India unique, alluring and ageless:" His photographs are, subsequently, extraordinarily thoughtful and genuine.

Gina Litherland is a striking example of the next generation of regional surrealists through her works of painterly virtuosity and mysteriously engaging narrative."

The artists confront contemporary social, political and historical issues using poster design, printmaking, painting, photography, collage and video. The works are typically graphic in execution and palette, presenting complex image relationships in multilayered collaged formats. Works by Eduardo Paolozzi, Tadanori Yokoo and Jane Hammond are drawn from the museum’s Permanent Collection. Acquired in the early 1980s, the two portfolios by Eduardo Paolozzi, General Dynamic F.U.N, 1970, and Conditional Probability Machine, 1970, and the vintage offset lithographs by international recognized graphic artist Tadanori Yokoo will be shown at the Haggerty for the first time. Also to be presented are works on loan from museums, galleries and private collections. Other artists in Jump Cut Pop are Cliff Evans, Nobu Fukui and Martha Rosler.

This self-assigned project continued for the next six years, ending in 1973, after Bobby Seale’s unsuccessful mayoral run in Oakland. Embraced by the organization, Shames was allowed unprecedented access, thus enabling him to capture not only its public face—street demonstrations, protests, and militant posturing—but also unscripted behind-the-scenes moments, from private party meetings to Bobby Seale in prison. Through his prolific output, Shames amassed an impressive archive of images, most of which have never been seen. Those that have been published appeared in the Black Panther, the party’s own newspaper, and a few other publications. For an organization that often suffered as a result of their portrayal through images, Shames’s photographs offer a nuanced portrait of this complex and often misunderstood group that helped define the turbulent 1960s.

]]> Haggerty Museum of Art, Marquette University Let There be Light: Stained Glass and Drawings from the Collection of Oakbrook Esser Studios http://epublications.marquette.edu/haggerty_catalogs/86 http://epublications.marquette.edu/haggerty_catalogs/86 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 11:37:46 PDT This exhibition examines the function of stained glass as a means for religious storytelling and investigates how that history impacts the understanding of work in stained glass by contemporary viewers. The exhibition also reveals rarely seen processes that go into the creation of stained glass, including life-size preliminary drawings and small scale color renderings in gouache, ink and watercolor.

]]> Haggerty Museum of Art, Marquette University The Truth is Not in the Mirror http://epublications.marquette.edu/haggerty_catalogs/85 http://epublications.marquette.edu/haggerty_catalogs/85 Wed, 05 Sep 2012 11:30:43 PDT Photography as a medium has always been actively concerned with describing identity. While a portrait is typically an artistic representation of a person where verisimilitude is the goal, here the inquiry is questioned and expanded. Rather than employing a camera to create an objective document, the artists in this exhibition are often involved in constructing narrative sequences that pose questions with open-ended outcomes. As the title, The Truth is Not in the Mirror... suggests, photography has the power to imply, construct, and/or deny a narrative. Many of the photographers are contemporary storytellers and, in this sense, their work reflects facets of our ever-changing precepts about family, identity, truth and fiction.

The exhibition presents many all-new, never-before-seen works, created specifically for the Haggerty Museum. Each artist was paired with a Marquette professor who wrote a reflection of the artist’s work based on the professor’s area of expertise, creating dialogue between artist and scholar and connecting philosophy, theology, political science, communications, etc., to the works in the exhibition.
