The 7.0 magnitude Ansei Earthquake struck Edo on November 11, 1855, with an epicenter near the mouth of Arakawa River. The quake not only caused some 15,000 homes to collapse with a loss of around 10,000 lives but was followed by a raging fire that engulfed sections of the city including that of the central government. My paper centers on the response of art to disaster, in this case study, in a situation without censorship. I aim to explore how artists have responded to such events and how their often-innovative work can dramatize catastrophes, make them easy to digest, filter them through humor or anger, and function as therapy for the amelioration of suffering.

Having been established in early 19th century Europe, the art museum is a relatively recent type of cultural institution. Instead of potential creeping irrelevance for contemporary society, the art museum has become an ever more desirable urban status symbol as confirmed by the ongoing global museum construction boom.
What is the current relationship between museum and art, that is, the container and the contained? The discussion involves four art museums: Gio Ponti's Denver Art Museum of 1971, Daniel Libeskind’s Hamilton Building addition of 2006, David Adjaye’s Museum of Contemporary Art of 2007, and Brad Cloepfil’s Clyfford Still Museum of 2010.

Block 1, 2024 - AH200 Topics in Art History: Decadence, Eroticism and Anxiety: London, Paris and Vienna, c. 1900
An investigation of the place of art in the cultural, social, and intellectual history of three important capitals of Europe at the turn-of-the-century, a time of profound social change. We will examine how art reflects the anxieties, fears, and cultural preoccupations with erotic and gender issues such as androgyny and the femme fatale, with the psyche, the fashion for decadence, and with the undermining of the establishment. Artists studied include Toulouse-Lautrec, Redon, Klimt, Schiele, Burne-Jones and Beardsley.

This is a research seminar in which students working in groups investigate trade goods (their production, circulation, and reception) in order to mount an online exhibition. Our focus is on the circulation of objects between Asia (taken broadly) and Europe (especially France and England) in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In-depth case studies will include lacquerwares; gazebos, pagodas and architectural forms; gardens; ceramics; wallpaper; textiles; printed books, and furniture. Chinese, Japanese, French and British pattern books will be considered, as well as European printed books providing early ideas about China. There will be a one-day field trip up to Denver. No prerequisites or pin required to add the course. Counts for the Creativity designation.
Featuring work from Advanced Printmaking, Advanced Sculpture, Art Studio Foundations: Drawing, Advanced Topics: Painting, and Advanced Topics: 2D-3D Prototyping. Visit Packard Hall, Robson Arena, and Ed's Garage on Nevada at Dale.
C.C. Wang (1907–2003) stands as a pivotal figure in the 20th-century art realm, recognized both as an eminent collector and a trailblazing artist in Chinese ink painting. His Sino-American heritage positioned him to bridge traditional Chinese ink painting with post-WWII American abstract art. His endeavors greatly enriched the representation of Chinese painting and calligraphy in U.S. public collections. This talk delves into the diaspora and otherness within the sphere of Wang’s existence. His avant-garde artistic ventures and art collection act as tangible expressions of his bifurcated identity, embodying elements drawn from both Chinese and American milieus.
Spanning artistic production, digital hoarding, industrial manufacture, and interdisciplinary research, Poggioli will dissect a practice of making that responds to the confluence of technology, medicine, and invention in relationship to the (reproductive) body and society.
Unthreaded at the Denver Art Museum

Kit is featured in this artist takeover at the Denver Art Museum and will be putting on a fashion show/performance piece. Check it out!
Unthreaded is a genre-expansive performance, elevating contemporary queer retellings of antique narratives through their hegemonic deconstruction. Balancing aesthetic nods to medieval and contemporary clothing and costumes, we invite you to join us in a time-travelling journey and learn the lesser known queer experiences and histories of: The Siren, The Knight, The Actor, and The Faggot. Unthreaded was made in collaboration between ten queer Denver-based creatives— merging fashion, dance, movement, and sound.

From The Hub: This week, we are spotlighting Afro-futurist Jameel Amman as he debuts his series, honoring the ancestors. Amman’s series, titled “Mwen Sévi Lwa Vol. 1”, pays homage to not only historical figures but also to family members who have passed away.
In this interview with TheHub.news, the esteemed talks about the inspiration behind his breathtaking new series.
This talk explores the curatorial as a radical and interdisciplinary methodology, focusing on critical exhibition projects, public art and site-specific interventions, and community-based collaborations as case studies to think through possibilities of the curatorial as both practice and pedagogy.

United by their argument for radical empathy as a vital democratic norm, the three series of projects span a wide range of research questions, including how we might open up queer possibilities in the built environment, how we might better grapple with our post-truth epistemic regime, and how we might leave behind better legacies for species that persist after human extinction.

“Anyone can make a print. And there are so many ways to make a print, that there’s no reason not to do it.” So says Kate Aitchison ’10, the visiting art studio faculty member who taught Summer Session’s Block A Printmaking course. Handmade prints are personal expressions of creativity, even democracy. They’re also affordable to create, portable, and easy to store. Student video intern Bergen Hoff ’22 took the course and made this video.
Sam Cadigan ’21, a Colorado College art major with a concentration in integrative design and architecture, has received an honorable mention in the Parsons School of Design Role Models Competition for her senior thesis, Mourning Walk.

Jameel Paulin
Artist. Socialist. Afrofuturist.
My work is primarily about transformations: new worlds, new relations, and new forms of being. It is about how descendants of the African diaspora have transformed the very grounds of being, meaning, and relatedness through the framework of afrofuturism. As a visual artist who grew up during the overlapping eras of 'golden age of hip-hop' and the digital age, my experience of afrofuturism has primarily been shaped by the evolution of personal digital/information technology and hip-hop music. I use the emergent technology of virtual reality to create immersive audio-visual worlds influenced by afrofuturist themes and West African symbolism. By embracing the digital media, and creating digitally immersive realities, that are visually akin to the sonic environments of Coltrane, J Dilla, and Flying Lotus, I aim to situate hip-hop aesthetics within a tradition of black liberation aesthetics and to employ a kind of "hip-hop" method within my own creative practice.

Session 1: 10:00 am-1:00 pm| Session 2: 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Colorado College, Packard Hall, Room 39 (lower level West end), 5 W. Cache la Poudre St., Colorado Springs, CO 80903
In this hands-on workshop participants will explore printmaking and photographic possibilities as they learn exposure, development, and printing with photopolymer plates. Photopolymer plates are "etched" by ultraviolet light and developed in water to produce a plate that can be used for intaglio printing. Artists will be encouraged to produce a straight print and multiple experimental prints during this 3-hour-long guided workshop. We are offering two 12-person sessions for this workshop located in Colorado Springs. Please email Heather Oelklaus, Colorado College Printshop Supervisor, at hoelklaus@coloradocollege.edu to reserve your spot.
Exploring personal history through photopolymer plates can be insightful. We will use a photo from your collection (hardcopy or digital file) to make a polymer plate and will encourage you to express yourself through various printing techniques.
All materials will be provided by the Colorado College Art Department. Free and Open to the public.

In 2014, anthropologist Joe Dumit published "Writing the Implosion" in which he articulates a teaching-practice developed by Donna Haraway. An implosion examines the cultural strings knotting things, stories, and places - binding, for instance, your white-cotton t-shirt with plantation agriculture and posters of James Dean. As Dumit points out, Haraway's implosion method reveals how deeply entangled we are with a dangerous world and in so doing produces a strong feeling of discomfort. This lecture will consider what kinds of questions it becomes possible to ask when feminist cultural studies implodes the work of architecture. By examining a series of full-scale drawings, I will offer a theoretical position replacing "agency" with "comfort" as a guiding concept to make sense of the world. Following Sara Ahmed and others, we'll consider the "room-making devices" that produce worlds more comfortable for some than others.

In August 2005, Hurricane Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast, and among the thousands of structures in its path was the studio of New Orleans photographers Keith Calhoun and Chandra McCormick. Both born and raised in the Lower Ninth Ward, the duo had been documenting the culture of Louisiana for decades, increasingly with an eye toward injustice. As the waters receded, Calhoun and McCormick gained reentry to their studio, only to find everything-from equipment negatives-ruined. As the city recovered, they embarked upon an innovative process of making prints from the damaged negatives, the resultant photographs impossibly catching and freezing in time this destructive event. Calhoun and McCormick generated a series entitled it "Right to Return." The process and resultant images have altered their perception of destruction, and they no longer consider the images damaged.
Koichi Yamamoto, Associate Professor, University of Tennessee
Wednesday, May 1, 2019 | 3:30 pm | WES Room, Worner Center
Koichi Yamamoto, associate professor of art at the University of Tennessee, merges traditional and contemporary techniques to develop unique and innovative approaches to the language of printmaking. Yamamoto's prints explore issues of the sublime, memory, and atmosphere and range from small, meticulously engraved copper plates to large monotypes. He will be working with printmaking students to create kites made from intaglio prints. Then, as Yamamoto says, "if there is wind, they'll fly."
Talk by Victoria Ehrlich, Visiting Professor, Art Department
Thursday, March 28, 2019 | 3:30 pm | Packard Room 23
Professor Ehrlich will discuss how fifteenth-century Florentine artists visualized the realm of virtue by depicting heroes doing battle with monsters. She believes that these figures do not represent the stark contrast between the brutish and the superhumanly virtuous, described by Aristotle, but actually mirrored one another in significant ways. She will point out the congruencies between the heroic and the monstrous as represented in the visual culture of Quattrocento Florence. This approach brings into relief contemporary ideas of virtue as reflected in the ambiguous status of monsters and heroes while foregrounding the unstable boundary that separated nature from culture in fifteenth-century thought.

Senga Nengudi lives and works in Colorado Springs, Colorado. She studied art and dance at California State University, graduating in 1967 before studying Japanese culture at Waseda University, Tokyo from 1966-67. Returning to Los Angeles, she completed an MA in sculpture at California State University in 1977.
Interested in the visual arts, dance, body mechanics, and matters of the spirit from an early age these elements still play themselves out in ever-changing ways in her art. She has always used a variety of natural (sand, dirt, rocks, seed pods) and unconventional (pantyhose, found objects, masking tape) materials to fashion her works, utilizing these materials as a jazz musician utilizes notes and sounds to improvise a composition. The thrust of her art is to share common experiences in abstractions that hit the senses and center, often welcoming the viewer to become a participant. In addition to her installations, sculpture, and performances, Nengudi also creates paintings, and photography and writes poetry under the pseudonyms Harriet Chin, Propecia Lee, and Lily B. Moor.
Rachel Montgomery Paupeck | Tuesday, December 11, 2018, 4:00 pm | Cornerstone Screening Room
What is the role of the architect and what power systems are reinforced by the very claiming of that name? This lecture will look at what happens when rigid design thinking co-mingles with queer theory and an artist's practice. I will examine how I often frame my work through the didactic but empowering lens of basic queer theory principles: agency, proclaiming, and the claiming of space, representation, and identity. I will trace this lecture's themes and contextualize them through my architectural and installation-based practice.

Berg Distinguished Professor Deborah Hutton | Wednesday, April 11 at 7 pm | Cornerstone Screening Room
The 16th-century Indo-Islamic queen, Chand Bibi, was valorized both during her life and posthumously for her heroic defense of the Deccan city of Ahmednagar against the invading armies of the Mughal Empire. During the 18th-century, she became a common subject of paintings, which repeatedly depict her hawking on horseback. Indeed, the imagery is so standardized and ubiquitous that art historians have paid the paintings scant attention. But is Chand Bibi's depiction really so straightforward and banal? If the defense of Ahmednagar is the event for which she is remembered, why are there no paintings of her in battle? Why does she emerge as a subject for painting a century after she lived? In this talk, Hutton analyzes portraits of Chand Bibi as a way of exploring the larger changes to Indian painting during the 18th-century and the role of such images in creating what we might classify as a "shared historical imaginary" of the early modern Deccan.

We are earnest American Women of Photography walking in the footsteps of the greats who have come before us. Dorothea Lange, Imogene Cunningham, Berenice Abbott, Diane Arbus, Mary Ellen Mark, Margaret Bourke White, and Sally Mann...we honor the path you have paved and feel called to excellence because of your life's work.
We, as women, have shared our lives intimately throughout history in the cycle of nourishment. We have instinctively supported the greater good as mothers and daughters and sisters in childbearing and caregiving. We nurse the world together. We are Tribe.
Our work is feminine without apology. We are drawn to that romantic notion of story-telling, memory, nostalgia, the natural world, and family. As artists, we come together within our medium for inspiration, collaboration, postulation, and celebration. This connection provides a deep well of power that we as makers are strengthened and sustained by. It is our commitment to Tribe that not only elevates the work itself but keeps us moving to the lunar rhythms of a passionate and sensitive creative life.

AS221 Photography + Spatial Awareness
The photograph as creative inspiration is a powerful tool in identifying the ways in which visual interpretation can influence an everyday experience. However, as we continue to develop new strategies for visual communication, photographic comprehension, and spatial prioritization, our representations of space, place and spatial circumstance are continually redefining themselves.
Digital Photography + Spatial Awareness will introduce techniques of digital photography and explore the work of conceptual artists and environmental designers to establish a dynamic understanding of the photograph as an object, a tool, and a relationship within the contemporary contexts of our built environments.

Come celebrate the work of studio art majors Jake Paron '17 and Jenny Welden '17. The opening includes remarks from the artists at 5:15 p.m., music, and light hors d'oeuvres.
Jake Paron's piece Alterne is a site-specific installation constructed out of a non-native grass species that covers much of the landscape surrounding institutions in the Colorado Springs area. Alternate explores how the lawn is used to represent nature. However, in an attempt to represent nature, the lawn substitutes the natural composition native to a specific site.
Jenny Welden's piece Heart of the Mountain is a site-specific installation representing the foundations of textile art through the use of non-fibrous materials. These materials create a network of interlocking fragments, demonstrating the dual contributions of the natural and the sacred in a textile image.

Jose Ferreira, the Artistic Director of Sculpture and Chair of Gallery Exhibitions at Anderson Ranch Arts Center, reveals the hidden content within the landscape, capturing the essence of collective histories through images taken on extensive walks. In this current body of work, he scrutinizes the stories and strategies that miners have used in the American West to survive the harshness of their environment and endure strained social relations. Photographs, drawings, texts, and sculptures reveal evidence of an economy that once thrived, but which is now exhausted. Liminal traces scar the landscape in the form of roads, footpaths, and mines. These marks expose signs of life, a memory pattern, which becomes fictionalized and made visible in a new narrative. Sponsored by the Colorado College Art Department and the Stillman Fund.

What did people wear in late antiquity from the late Roman to the early Islamic culture?
What kind of magic power was in the decoration on their textiles and clothing?
Professor Jennifer Ball ('91), an art history major from the Colorado College, will speak on Textiles as Magic Charms in Late Antiquity. Many textile fragments and sometimes entire garments from the Late Roman/Early Byzantine/Islamic period have been preserved in the dry climate of Egypt. These household textiles and items of dress show a continuity of beliefs outside and alongside the changing religious landscape of Egypt from the Roman pagan religions to Christianity, Judaism, and later, Islam.
After graduating from Colorado College, Jennifer Ball worked in the textile department of the Metropolitan Museum of Art and received a Ph.D. in art history from the Institute of Fine Arts of New York University. She has taught here at CC and is now an Associate Professor of Byzantine and Islamic Art at Brooklyn College and the Graduate Center, City University of New York. Her book Byzantine Dress Representations of Secular Dress in Eighth- to Twelfth-Century Painting is an important work on the significance of costume in communicating identity and status in Byzantium. Her other studies focus on monastic costumes and liturgical textiles. She has contributed to catalogs of major exhibitions at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the current exhibition, designing identity: The Power of Textiles in Late Antiquity, at the Institute for the Study of the Ancient World in New York where she wrote on the magical significance of decoration on garments.

Acclaimed Florentine artist Patrizio Travagli uses the ancient technique of gilding to transform the value and appeal of personal objects. Fascinated by the interaction of light and metallic leaf, Travagli draws upon the act of memorializing inherent in the gilding process and its finished product. In this workshop, participants will gild an everyday object stripping it of its utility and investing it with meaning, memory, and aesthetic value.
" The act of gilding is an act of memory. Covering the surface of an object with the noble metal exalts it. What is light and shadow becomes part of the environment through an anamorphic distortion. In the act of covering the object, you are also revealing it. Like a mirror, it becomes a reflection, your own personal reflection. The aim of the project is to see and feel how people respond to a shift in their perspective through the use of gold in gilding. During the workshop, participants will be asked to select and transform an object that means something to them. Something they love and it is part of their life.
The gilding will be made, for reasons of cost of material and processing difficulties, with leaves of brass. The object's status will be elevated by the metallic layer, but at the same time, it will become useless. Once gilded, the objects will be exhibited together as if they were in a warehouse (a place full of memories), to establish a dialogue with each other and with the visitors of the exhibition. At the end of the show, each workshop participant recovers possession of the object, so it can go back to its own dimension of everyday life - with the added value of gold." - Patrizio Travagli

2014 - 2015
May 4, 2015 | 4:00pm | Cornerstone Screening Room
Sponsored by the Art Department's Harold E. Berg Endowment
Ethne Clarke, an internationally known garden historian, and author of Hidcote: The Making of a Garden will speak at Colorado College on Monday afternoon, May 4, at 4:00 p.m. in the Screening Room in the Cornerstone Art Center. The famous early-20th-century gardens at Hidcote in the Cotswolds, recognized as the epitome of the classic English country garden style, were actually designed by an American, Lawrence Johnston. He was one of the so-called "Henry James Americans," who lived their lives between Europe and the United States. Hidcote was the first garden to be taken into the custody of England's National Trust. Clarke has researched not only the garden, but also Johnston's life, the social and intellectual milieu of his era, and the contemporary influences on his garden-making.
Ethne Clarke is a professional horticulturist and the author of fifteen books on landscape history and gardening including The Art of the Kitchen Garden, Making a Herb Garden and with Rosemary Verey, The Scented Garden. Her biography of Cecil Pinsent, Infinity of Graces, is the first biography of the English architect who created many of the best-loved villas and gardens in Tuscany, such as La Foce (for Iris Origo) and I Tatti (for Bernard Berenson). Formerly the editor-in-chief of Organic Gardening and garden editor for Traditional Home, Clarke has also contributed to The American Gardener, Horticulture, Pacific Horticulture, Garden Design, Gardens Illustrated, Hortus, Homes and Gardens, Country Life, and RHS The Garden. Resident in England for 30 years, she was the recipient of the 1987 Angel Literary Award for Art of the Kitchen Garden. Clarke has a Master of Philosophy in Art and Design from De Montfort University, Leicester, England.

Emma Powell (Assistant Professor of Art) introduces her photography to Colorado College with this one-person exhibition. Fascinated by the history of photography, Powell incorporates historic processes and devices into her contemporary practice. Past projects have included archaic technologies such as wet plate collodion process and old Kodak cameras. Her recent work navigates the fine line between reality and fantasy, using self-portraiture to articulate personal narratives. Using a cyanotype process, Powell creates a backdrop in which archetypal universal symbols combine and collide.

MUTE EARTH will consist of original works created by Scott Johnson specifically for the MOA galleries and will include site-specific installations and large-scale objects as well as a series of photographic pieces. Johnson will utilize the entirety of the MOA main exhibition galleries, multimedia galleries, and atrium for this unique exhibition.
Scott Johnson is well known for his work with a wide range of materials and for his thought-provoking sculptural installations. MUTE EARTH will explore the complex relationship between modes of representation and perception with regard to landscape and architectural space. The installations presented as part of this exhibition are the result of Johnson's literary research, experimentation with new materials, and direct observation of natural phenomena and cultural artifacts, places, and structures. A Colorado native, Johnson incorporated regional phenomena and elements of the Colorado landscape into his conceptual threads for the works created for this exhibition.

Heather Oelklaus, Heal (detail), 2014, Chemigram, 50 x 51 inches, edition of one, Courtesy of the artist
Colorado Springs-based artist Heather Oelklaus explores her subjects through historic photographic processes. Although Oelklaus employs vintage techniques, many of which date back to the beginnings of photography itself, her compositions frequently speak the language of abstract painting or motion pictures. But it is Oelklaus's combination of these extremely difficult technical processes with contemporary subjects and objects that are truly
ONE OF A KIND
The title of the show suggests the singular nature of many of Oelklaus's images. In an era in which most of us understand photography as infinitely reproducible, her photographic works emerge from intensive processes that result in a single original image.
June 21 - September 28, 2014 | Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center
For Open, Tirado has made a series of extraordinarily large drawings that fill the FAC's magnificent, soaring El Pomar Gallery. The subject is what Tirado describes as one of our "primary tools" for connection and disconnection - the human hand. These exquisitely drafted images represent the hand in all its complex physicality, elegance, power, vulnerability, and expression. But these drawings are just the beginning of an exhibition that unfolds over time - the artist's process will be "open" and visible to viewers as Tirado creates a new, large-scale sculpture in the gallery throughout the show's duration. This is an experience that visitors will want to witness again and again.
Andy was also the Top Prize Winner in "Art on the Streets" in Colorado Springs.
For "depth" and "community presence," among other qualities of her work, Jean Gumpper, Visiting Professor in the Colorado College Art Department, was recently named among the best artists in the Pikes Peak Region.

Opening Reception | March 27, 2014 | 4:30 - 6:30 pm | IDEA SPACE
The opening reception for the Rhythm Nations and panel discussion will be with exhibition artists and CC faculty. Includes performance by students from From Fringe to Spotlight, taught by professor Idris Goodwin.
From its roots within the urban American experience of the 1960-70s, contemporary hip-hop culture has evolved into an expressive language that transcends cultural and national boundaries. Formerly subversive modes of expression, such as graffiti, rap, appropriation, and breakdancing have now become flexible strategies for personal and political communication that spans all racial, national, and economic groups. From March 24 to May 8 2014 Colorado College will explore the ways in which the hip hop strategies of remix, mash-up, appropriation, and protest allow for the creation of new cultural hybrids within the shifting terrains of the mainstream. The project will include a gallery exhibition, public art projects, lectures, performances, films, and discussions.
The exhibition component of the project will focus on three contemporary artists Ruben Aguirre iROZEALb, and Jaque Fragua. The artists employ strategies drawn from street art practices and hip-hop culture within the context of fine art. The exhibition will uncover the tensions created when graffiti motifs are removed from lived, public spaces and realized into two-and three-dimensional forms. The themes addressed include an examination of the relationship between the self-definition inherent in the creation of street art and the drive toward individual expression of Abstract Expressionism; the power of poetic insurrection within public spaces; and the creation of hybrid identities through cultural appropriations.

Historian Howard Zinn declared Colorado's historic Ludlow Massacre as "the culminating act of perhaps the most violent struggle between corporate power and laboring men in American history". As part of the state-wide marking of the 100th Anniversary of the Ludlow Massacre - an event that sparked the modern labor movement - GOCA has invited six artists who address the concept of protest through their varied artistic practices. Hailing from regional and national locales and contributing photography, mixed-media, video, and performance works, the artists are, through their works, expanding upon an event that resonates heavily today in our cultural consciousness.
A multidisciplinary performance will take place in the gallery on Friday, January 31, at 7 p.m. titled "Resistance and Rebellion: Remember the Past to Carve the Future" featuring Ensemble Peak Frequency, the Ormao Dance Company, Psychoangelo, and vocalist Tim Eriksen performing works associated with acts of social and political resistance, rebellion and oppression.
Coburn Gallery
Andy Tirado, the 3D arts supervisor for the Colorado College art department, has sculptured a series of massive hands using a very appropriate CC material - reclaimed redwood from the deck outside the studios at Packard Hall, which houses the art department.
Tirado provides tech support for the art department, supervises the sculpture shop, and teaches a spring woodworking adjunct class. He also will be teaching sculpture at the Anderson Ranch in Snowmass this summer.
The four sculptures, all of which depict right hands (Tirado is left-handed; he uses his right hand as a model) are enormous - one is 13 feet long and weighs more than 300 pounds - and take up nearly all the space in Coburn Gallery, where they have been on exhibit. However, the huge hands, constructed from redwood, alder, and steel, all materials Tirado scrounged for, will soon be moved to make way for a new exhibit.
Opening Reception and Gallery Talk | Wednesday, January 22, 2014 | 4:30 pm | IDEA Space
