END OF SEMESTER REFLECTION

by auguste nomeikaite

I think that learning about Brenda Hutchinson’s and Bertoia Sonambient’s unorthodox, self-discovered musical instruments was an extremely nice way to end the semester. I felt like it reinforced the biggest lesson I ended up taking away from this class: art does not have to be solemn to be meaningful. More than anything, this semester and the Sound Art class has encouraged me to embrace playfulness in art - whether it was the silly test recordings I did asking friends to sing into a tube, or the performance recordings we have watched as a class. I found it so fascinating how artists like Christian Marclay, Ben Patterson or even Tarek Atoui could so confidently perform pieces which looked more like a child’s game than an “artist’s” craft, while still conveying and putting forward meaningful and politicized messages. I loved the brief bit in Hutchinson’s YouTube video where she recalls the numerous comments she got from people - all along the lines of “My kid could do that!” - and her being so affirmative of that simplicity, saying “I like that!”

Another idea I found myself constantly grappling with this semester was the relationship between visuals and sound, which was one of the main reasons for why I took this class in the first place. I am majoring in film, which is a medium based on the marriage of the two - yet so often I see visuals being prioritized over sound, especially in student work. Interestingly, while the past 14 weeks definitely forced me to consider the sonic before the haptic, I also realized that the two are inseparable, much the same way that our senses are biologically wired to be connected. Whatever the piece, there always is a visual aspect, which might sometimes be clearly absent - like in Max Neuhaus’ pieces, for example - and that carries its own weight. The most important takeaway in this respect was probably the idea that visuals and sound, though connected, do not always have to be in harmony. Neuhaus’ installation at Times Square is such a quiet, peaceful rebellion to all the visuals, all the bustling environment that it is set in. And so, even though the piece has nothing visual about it by itself, it alters the space it is set in, including the visuals - Neuhaus himself is cited in Alex Potts’ essay, saying “I use sound to change the way we perceive a space.” To me, it was a powerful reminder that sound will always create an extra layer of meaning, and that instead of simply “accompanying” visuals, it can be used to charge or challenge them.

This leads me to the politics of sound, which was another idea that deeply affected me. Obviously, I have always been aware of the political power of art, however, when it came to anything audiovisual, I constantly found myself focusing on the haptic aspects as the main political vessel. This class made me reconsider that, and it is very closely related to this sense of “altering space through sound” that Neuhaus talked about. Besides that, I have also been forced to reflect on the ethics of sound, together with its politics. It first struck me during our discussion of Vito Acconci’s “Seedbed,” where I first saw how powerful - and powerfully problematic - sound may be. A different way of seeing it was through the analysis of Fluxus, their mission of democratizing art, the libertarian approach to their “Happenings” and how specifically that was communicated through sound.

Finally, I want to come back to the idea of playfulness in art. What this class made me seriously reconsider was the very notion of sound, and sound-making objects. In some sense, riding that same democratic wave of thought, anything can be turned into an instrument. I remember how at the very beginning of the semester one of the readings introduced Joseph Bertollozi’s “Bridge Music,” and that seemed like such an unusual way of thinking about music or sound art to me. Now it was not just an object that made sound - it was a huge man-made structure with an urban function that too, in its own way, produced sound. However, perhaps the most mind-bending approach to non-instrumental sound for me was Alvin Lucier’s “I Am Sitting in a Room”. Just like the permanent presence of visuals, this piece made me consider the constant presence of sound, which, in its own right, is also sound art.

Introducing | 2018 Murray Reich Distinguished Artist Award Recipients

Sarah Draney, Rick Klauber, Reeva Potoff, and Kay WalkingStick will each receive an unrestricted cash award of $12,000.

The New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA) is proud to announce the 2018 recipients of the Murray Reich Distinguished Artist Award, which was established in 2015 to recognize artistic excellence and provide resources to mature visual artists with a long history of creative practice. This year’s winners—Sarah Draney, Rick Klauber, Reeva Potoff, and Kay WalkingStick—will each receive an unrestricted cash award of $12,000. 

With the support of an anonymous donor, NYFA created this annual award to enable artists with a long history of creative practice to pursue deeper investigations or new explorations that can inform and enrich their work. It has been developed in memory of the artist Murray Reich, a New York-based painter who also had a highly regarded career as a professor of art at Bard College.

Reeva Potoff moved to the SoHo neighborhood of New York when it was still illegal to live there, after receiving an MFA degree from Yale University. Potoff would often look out the window in the dead of night and see women working until dawn at their sewing machines. Potoff and many fellow artists joined the Artworkers Coalition or helped out in the South Bronx, and joined feminist consciousness-raising groups. The artist's studio was on Mercer Street in a building that bundled and sold scrap paper; Potoff made all of her early sculptures out of the cardboard that she retrieved. The pieces were based on gathering visual documentation (photos, drawings, and models) from the cliffs that she found along highways and coastal areas. Potoff's first solo exhibition was at The Meisel Gallery in New York; she later exhibited at The Museum of Modern Art and received fellowships from the American Academy in Rome and the National Endowment for the Arts. Potoff has taught at Bennington College and Columbia University, and now teaches at Pratt Institute. Potoff continues to have an interest in nature and grows and photographs mold and the visual material it generates, which provides the basis for large-scale inkjet prints. The prints are scaled for the wall that they are installed on, and the insects that populate the prints are prints as well. Potoff lives and works in the same loft she first settled in, and is still a feminist.

Kay WalkingStick has had over 30 solo shows in the United States and Europe. Her work is in the permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum, New York; the Museum of Canada, Ottawa; the Israel Museum, Jerusalem; The Newark Museum, Newark; the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; and many other museums across the United States. June Kelly Gallery represents her work in New York. WalkingStick taught painting and drawing to graduate and undergraduate students at Cornell University for 17 years, where she is an Emerita Professor. WalkingStick was given an honorary doctorate by Pratt Institute and by Arcadia University. She is a fellow of the National Academy of Design. In 2015, her retrospective of 75 paintings and drawings covering the years from 1970 to 2015 opened at the Smithsonian, National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, D.C. Since closing in September of 2016, the exhibition has traveled to various venues across the country including the Gilcrease Museum, Tulsa; the Montclair Museum in Montclair, NJ; The Art Institute in Dayton, Ohio; the Kalamazoo Art Museum, Kalamazoo, MI; and the Heard Museum, Phoenix, AZ. The show was listed by Hyperallergic as one of the best 15 exhibitions to open nationwide in 2016. WalkingStick and her husband, the artist Dirk Bach, live in Easton, PA.
