On view in the Gallery building at Glenstone Museum, "Iconoclasts: Selections from Glenstone's Collection" highlights some of the most radical shifts in artmaking in the course of the 20th century. Foundational collection artists-such as Willem de Kooning, Alexander Calder, Ruth Asawa, and Martin Puryear, among many others-are on view alongside new acquisitions, including Hilma af Klint’s Tree of Knowledge, 1913-1915.
The exhibition is on long-term view in the Gallery, and will occasionally have works rotated or refreshed throughout the run of the show.

“In a sense, what I’ve tried to capture is the reality of flux, to keep art an open, incomplete situation, to get at the rapture of seeing.”-Ellsworth Kelly On view at Glenstone until March 17, 2024, "Ellsworth Kelly at 100" presents an overview of the late American abstract painter, known for bold forms of color and shaped canvases.

The seven-decade career of beloved American abstractionist Ellworth Kelly (b. 1923, d. 2015) changed the course of American art. Exploring form, color, line, and space through painting, drawing, sculpture, and more, Kelly persistently tried to get at the "rapture of seeing", prizing immediate visual impact, bold colors, along with shaped and joined canvases.

    The one of the great experiences of Glenstone are the docents that are so informative and friendly to chat with. When I entered the space with the magnificent de Kooning, I mentioned about the stolen/since recovered de Kooning from the University of Arizona art museum (th-cam.com/video/fwvqHeb32lY/w-d-xo.html). The staff member quipped to her coworker, "Hmmm, we better keep an eye on this guy." It was a very funny moment.

    I had the pleasure of seeing "Iconoclasts" just before the holidays and intend to see it again soon. What a great video. It provided a rare glimpse into the preparation, unpacking, installation and downright sweat that goes into setting up an art exhibit. Some of these works are so fragile that just a slight bump or touch in the wrong area would cause major damage. Its fascinating that for some of these works you need a team of engineers, electricians, technicians, etc. to set them up. Many would think you just simply plug it in and presto.. Thank you Ms. Figueroa and Mr. Ecker. Bruce Nauman came up with the concept but you bring it to life. The Jackson Pollock painting (1:08) reminds me of dancers. When I view it I can see them dance in motion across the rectangular canvas. A stunning example of his work. The amazing Lee Krasner painting (6:52) was another highlight of the exhibit. Just like the Pollock, it is full of motion and life. She is on the same level as her more famous husband and in some cases surpasses him. The Arshile Gorky pastel (1:15) is exquisite. My favorite work of his. The Felix Gonzalez-Torres (0:25) candy sculpture really is like a metaphor for life. It seems there is so much time but the minutes become hours, the hours become days, days become years and before you know it, the pile has dwindled away to a few remaining remnants. Thanks Glenstone for another outstanding exhibit. 👍

    I’m a photographer. I do abstract graphic color photography and black-and-white surreal images using film. My friend is a well-known photographer in Europe and has exhibited widely. Looking at my friends images always triggers an emotional response from me in terms of design and meaning. I will give you both of our opinions about Jeff Walls images later. Lets say you have an image that you printed to a size of 20 x 24“ and you think that this image has an emotional visual impact as a work of art, but not quite enough of it. The way to increase the visual impact of this piece of art is to print it to a very large size. This gives a mediocre to average work of art a sense awe which increases the visual impact of an image as related to it being art. It’s kind of like walking into a cathedral as compared to walking into a small old cabin. Big has more of a psychological impact on human beings, big is more intimidating and awe inspiring. On the other hand, if you have work of art that is considered by critics and the general public alike to be exceptionally good and the artist created this work of art decides to enlarge it to a very large scale, this would be fine because the inherit structure of this work of art is exceptionally good at any scale. Enlarging a mediocre work art to a very large scale is an attempt by the artist who created the work of art and make into something more than it really is as a work of art. My friend and I both initially looked at Jeff Walls graveyard photo and his other works and we both concluded that as a general rule his art is good to mediocre but definitely not to the tune of a value $3.4 million for one of his prints. He does have some exceptionally good images, but there is a general rule I don’t feel an impact when I see his images. I remember years ago going to Jeff’s exhibition at the Vancouver art gallery with the photographer Fred Hertzog and Trevor Martin who is a well-known photographic printer in Vancouver. One of Jeff Walls images on display was a kid hiking up a snowy ledge and printed very large scale and it was back lit. When we were looking at this image, I told Fred and Trevor that it looks like a standard commercial stock image that you can purchase from any agency. They both agreed with me. This Jeff Wall image was completely devoid of any meaning as a work of art except for its massive size. Jeff Wall is compensating for his inability to produce meaningful work of art at all sizes when displayed. Size matters, but size alone cannot transform a mediocre work of art into a great work of art unless the current art movement decides to do so, which happens quite often. Michael Pantazis

    I had the pleasure of seeing this exhibit twice. For the indoor sculpture at 1:24 I joked to the docent this is one of the greatest balancing acts I’ve ever seen. Of course, I realized the piece is secured, but it was convincing enough to give the appearance it was standing on its own. The works at 0:53 were precursors to pixelized computer-generated graphics and work at 0:46 I thought was very much a resemblance to a QR code. Yes indeed, the photographs tremendously complimented Kelly’s paintings and sculptures with their shapes, patterns and shadows. The exhibit would not be complete without them. Amongst my favorites were the teal/ultramarine blue painting at 1:47/4:03, the lovely, simplistic illustration of the corn stalk at 2:37 and the spectrum painting at 1:10 (I did purchase the exhibition poster). Of course, “Yellow Curve” was radiating warmth and quite impressive, the work itself and presentation (and of course, the cookie. 😉). Thanks to Mr. and Ms. Rales, Curator Stone and the staff at Glenstone for making this splendid exhibit happen. Attendees just show up and enjoy it and often one does not realize the behind-the-scenes planning, logistics, labor, expense, etc. that goes into putting such an impressive exhibition together.

    Glenstone is an extraordinary place- much gratitude to the Rales and the Glenstone team for creating it as a sanctuary for art and reflection. I greatly appreciate this film for the insights about the holistic and intentional approach to all aspects of the design. I visited yesterday while taking a day of silence- all of the guides I encountered were supportive and gracious when I showed them my note about being in silence. I spent almost all of my time during this visit with the outdoor works- in winter, they are even more powerful in contrast with the spare landscape. It was a deeply moving day. 🙏🏽

The drawings and photos included in the exhibit were eye-opening. Also the Iconoclasts exhibit is outstanding. It was amazing to get a rare opportunity to view Hilma af Klint's work in person. The Lee Krasner work was stunning and the Arshile Gorky pastel is a rare gem. The de Kooning, Pollock, Kline and Klein (Yves) are also amongst my favs.

    This piece was so moving. What they don't explain is that your perception of the yellow reflections change the longer you look. Soon the color is climbing up the wall to the ceiling and you become the art work as you watch your perception change in real time. This work really touches the perceptual territory of James Turrell or Robert Irwin to be honest. Not to be missed...

    Fascinating video and also stellar exhibit of Kelly's art at Glenstone. I truly found a new appreciation for his work after seeing the exhibit. The "Yellow Curve" kind of reminded me of the Roni Horn exhibit at GS in 2017 ago where the stunning pink block of glass was placed in the middle of the gallery by itself. There was nothing else displayed in the room to distract and the experience was almost kind of meditative and spiritual. Looking at "Yellow Curve" reminded me of a beginners painting class I took many years ago when the instructor took a bright piece of orange pager and held it up to his face to demonstrate how color is reflected. I still can see his face bathed in orange. When you walk into the YC room see the radiating yellow reflection on the walls, to me it is very calming and beautiful. Indeed "a bit of sunshine". On another note, I was amused at the yellow frosted cookies served at the GS café that were inspired by the YC painting. I bet Mr. Kelly never imagined his work would inspire to create a delectable pastry.

    My plan is to see and experience as many of Serra's works as I can. After Museum Voorlinden and Zeewolde, most recently I visited the Kröller-Müller museum on Otterlo, NL, where there are two works in the huge museum garden. After passing great stuff by Dubuffet and others, you finally come to the far corner of the park, to find a 52 ton steel cilinder. At first, I didn't know what to think of it. But as I moved closer, I could almost feel its mass pull me in. Also, it stands ever so slightly tilted which for some reason makes you a bit dizzy and unstable on your feet. His sculptures are so fascinating. It amazes me that I havent yet seen (or noticed?!) his reinstated sculpture titled Sight Point at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam. Soon. And I would love to visit Glenstone. Seems like a trip.
