4 The Daily Tar Heel Tuesday. February 26, 1980
Artists draw from life,
Chicaso vernacular
.mm at
Hoffman. Midler
Invited by the Museum of
Contemporary Art in 1969 to organize a
showing of their work, a group of '
Chicago artists agreed that the
atmosphere of the exhibit should avoid
"conventional purity and grandeur."
They decided to use the basement of the
museum, dividing it into small rooms and
papering them with "artificial brick." A
huge forced-air furnace was installed. A
ping-pong table and other rec room
furnishings were also placed inside.
Now on exhibit at The Ackland Art
Museum is a collection from some of the
same artists, "Some Recent Art From
Chicago." The Ackland has not been re
decorated to accomodate them no
furnaces or pin-pong tables this time
but then these atmospheric additions are
unnecessary. This exhibit of two
generations of contemporary art from
Chicago, including 14 artists in all, by
itself suggests l he taint of mass-produced
culture found in Chicago and many
American cities.
Almost all the artists in this show
studied at the School of the Art Institute
of Chicago, during the 1960s. Two
instructors at The School," Whitney
Halstead and Ray Yoshida, influenced
them strongly; but it was Chicago
impressario Donald Baum who first
began to associate their work,
particularly in a series of shows at the
Hyde Park Art Center.
At the time of the exhibit at the
Museum of Contemporary Art, Baum
could not say that a Chicago school had
appeared yet, though he did comment
that the works represented the newest,
freshest statement to come from Chicago.
The "Recent A rt" show at the Ackland is
a complete sampler, updating and
clarifying that statement.
All of the artists on exhibit, but most
Concert features
The UNC Symphony Orchestra,
conducted by David Serrins, will present
its annual Concerto Concert tonight at 8
p.m. in the Hill Hall auditorium.
The students soloists will be Pamela
Bath, violin; Robert Simon, tuba; Susan
Townsend, mezzo-soprano; Laura
Patton, soprano and Thomas Yang,
piano. In the fall, these students
competed for and won the chance to
perform in this concert.
The program will include the Andante
from Schubert's Symphony No. 8 in B
(And we've got Natural
Snacks, for those who can
resist!)

notably Don Baum, Art Green, Gladys
Nilsson, Jim Nutt, Barbara Rossi, Karl
Wirsum and Ed Paschke, have followed
mentor Holstead's advice and learned to
look at the primitive. Forgetting
temporarily that most of the world's
"worthwhile" work hangs in Paris, New
York or Washington galleries, these
artists have pursued not pure estheticism
but the image of life that arises from their
own backgrounds, their own venacular.
They seek to express their own view of
reality, drawing mostly from the visual
catalogue of urban-American mass
produced culture.
. In Ed Paschke's Pink Scales and
Sitveroid, the observer is invited to
speculate the depth of subconscious
fantasies, but in Nueve York (a portrait of
an emasculated wrestler) and Purple
Ritual (an ironic treatment of Lee Harvey
Oswald surrounded by American eagles),
the artist depicts violent, real images.
Pashke's work is non-neutral, disturbing
and consistently haunting.
Just as aggressive are the iconographic
contributions of Jim Nutt, Barbara Rossi
and Christina Ramberg. Sizzling with
visual electricity, Nutt's works,
particularly Toot Toot Woo Woo,
suggest a kind of silent film melodramatic
treatment, exaggerated to bizarre
extremes.
Roger Brown's simple, stylized
architectural structures, as seen in
Sinking and Standing While All Around
Are Sinking, define most clearly a
localized Chicago influence. His angular
presentation and geometric repetition of
recognizable 19th and 20th century city
architecture is vivified by human
silhouettes, appearing at windows and on
street corners. Puerto Rican Wedding by
Brown represents a brilliant divorce of
man from his urban environment.

'Purple Ritual'
...in Ackland exhibit
The flavor of the "Recent Art" show is
often sour but can be sweet; the morose
representations of mutilated bodies (by
Nutt and Baum) are contrasted by comic
renderings which are not serious social
statements. Roy Yoshida's Comic Book
Specimen 15, a clever and funny
montage of dismembered and
reconstructed Marvel Group
superheroes, is only one work delighting
in the possibility of cartoon art.
Overall, the show makes a very direct,
high-impact statement for this
assortment of Chicago artists. If is not
simply an amalgamation of the erotic and
the sinister, or a film fantasy treatment of
the everyday side of life. The message is
there and is best expressed by Kerig Pope,
Chicago artist: "Good art veers away
from the center, and does nothing but
explore the perpetual strangeness of the
world. ..realism can be very strange. It can
actually be surreal."
The Ackland exhibit, "Some Recent
Art From Chicago" will remain until
March 9. Video-taped interviews with
some of the artists shown are also
available for viewing.
