	The Anxiety of Influence: Selections from the CU Art Museum's Ceramics Collection 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Curated by Lisa Tamiris Becker, Director, CU Art Museum and Kim Dickey, Professor, Department of Art and Art History, University of Colorado Boulder Drawing on Harold Bloom's seminal work of poetic criticism, "The Anxiety of Influence," to interpret the significant role that "influence" plays within the global history, culture, and tradition of ceramics, this exhibition will present Modern and Contemporary Ceramics as well as selected historic works from the CU Art Museum's permanent collection.

	Opening Reception for Keeping It Real: Korean Artists in the Age of Multi-Media Representation 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM Please join us for a reception, Thursday, February 2nd, from 6 - 8 pm, to celebrate the opening of the exhibition, 'Keeping It Real: Korean Artists in the Age of Multi-Media Representation.' This exhibition comments on the contemporary state of South Korean art by offering a unique and unprecedented opportunity to experience new art forms pioneered by emerging Korean artists working in Seoul, New York, and Europe. The artists in this exhibition lead us into a mysterious, ironic, and hybrid reality, a reality that completely challenges our perceptions of the world as we are conditioned to think about it. The works on view are a series of dialogues that illuminate conjunctures between real life and fantasy which present objects and human behaviors through a creative and conceptual kaleidoscope. The virtual reality in their art—a hyper-reality materialized in scientific, technological, and global idioms—unerringly subverts our intellectual, experienced, and intuitive knowledge about art and society. These artists belong to a new generation, born since the tumultuous social and political phase of modern Korean society subdued; without the Cold War, without riot police, yet possessing access to the larger world via the internet, opportunities to travel abroad, and products promoted locally by global corporations. The exhibition features photography, video, site-specific installation, and sculpture and includes the work of eight artists including: Kyung Woo Han Yong-ho Ji Yeondoo Jung Shin-il Kim Sun K. Kwak Hyungkoo Lee Jaye Rhee Kiwoun Shin The exhibition is on view from February 3 – May 12, 2012. Curated by J.P. Park, Assistant Professor of Art History, University of Colorado Boulder This exhibition is generously supported in part by the NBT Charitable Trust, the HBB Foundation, Arts Council Korea, Wayne F. Yakes, MD, the CU Art Museum benefactors and members, as well as by the CU Boulder Student Arts and Cultural Enrichment (ACE) fees. Additional funding for the related symposium is generously provided by the James and Rebecca Roser Visiting Artist Program and the Center for Asian Studies, University of Colorado Boulder.

	The Anxiety of Influence: Selections from the CU Art Museum's Ceramics Collection 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM Curated by Lisa Tamiris Becker, Director, CU Art Museum and Kim Dickey, Professor, Department of Art and Art History, University of Colorado Boulder Drawing on Harold Bloom's seminal work of poetic criticism, "The Anxiety of Influence," to interpret the significant role that "influence" plays within the global history, culture, and tradition of ceramics, this exhibition will present Modern and Contemporary Ceramics as well as selected historic works from the CU Art Museum's permanent collection. The exhibition will feature major pieces by Scott Chamberlin, Rick Dillingham, Arthur Gonzalez, Wayne Higby, Anne Kraus, Graham Marks, Jim Melchert, Linda Sikora, Suo Tan, Peter Voulkos, Betty Woodman and many others. The exhibition will also include works on paper by noted ceramic artists such as Robert Arneson and Ken Price to further explore the conceptual, aesthetic, and methodological influences on Modern and Contemporary ceramic artists. While many previous exhibitions have chronicled the decorative and technological influences of various ceramic traditions as they travelled across Eastern and Western cultures, this exhibition is the first to apply Bloom's complicated post-Freudian theories of "influence" to the realm of ceramics and its poetics, in order to construct a more complex understanding of the medium.

	Keeping It Real: Korean Artists in the Age of Multi-Media Representation 10:00 AM - 7:00 PM Opening Reception February 2, 2012, 6-8pm with a major related symposium February 4, 2012 in ATLAS 100. Further details about the symposium to be announced. Curated by J.P. Park, Assistant Professor of Art History, University of Colorado Boulder This exhibition comments on the contemporary state of South Korean art by offering a unique and unprecedented opportunity to experience new art forms pioneered by emerging Korean artists working in Seoul, New York, and Europe. The artists in this exhibition lead us into a mysterious, ironic, and hybrid reality, a reality that completely challenges our perceptions of the world as we are conditioned to think about it. The works on view are a series of dialogues that illuminate conjunctures between real life and fantasy which present objects and human behaviors through a creative and conceptual kaleidoscope. The virtual reality in their art—a hyper-reality materialized in scientific, technological, and global idioms—unerringly subverts our intellectual, experienced, and intuitive knowledge about art and society. These artists belong to a new generation, born since the tumultuous social and political phase of modern Korean society subdued; without the Cold War, without riot police, yet possessing access to the larger world via the internet, opportunities to travel abroad, and products promoted locally by global corporations. The exhibition features photography, video, site-specific installation, and sculpture and includes the work of eight artists including: Kyung Woo Han Yong-ho Ji Yeondoo Jung Shin-il Kim Sun K. Kwak Hyungkoo Lee Jaye Rhee Kiwoun Shin This exhibition is generously supported in part by the NBT Charitable Trust, the HBB Foundation, Arts Council Korea, Wayne F. Yakes, MD, the CU Art Museum benefactors and members, as well as by the CU Boulder Student Arts and Cultural Enrichment (ACE) fees. Additional funding for the related symposium is generously provided by the James and Rebecca Roser Visiting Artist Program and the Center for Asian Studies, University of Colorado Boulder.

	Visiting Artist Lecture Series- Arlene Schechet 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM Schechet is a sculptor working in a variety of materials with an emphasis on the ceramic object. Her work is made up of visceral masses and bulbous forms of fired clay atop cracked-wood-block pedestals or stools. Using traditional wheel-thrown and hand-built methods, the sculptures and pedestals merge into one piece, serving no purpose other than their own existence. While her work, at first glance, is gestural and comical, it is Schechet’s sensibility with the material making the work feel effortless and humble. Schechet received her MFA from Rhode Island School of Design and her BA from New York University. She is the recipient of numerous of awards including a John Simon Guggeinheim Foundation Fellowship, N.E.A. Fellowship Grant, and most recently a Joan Mitchell Award winner. She is among many permanent collections including the Brooklyn Museum, The Whitney Museum of American Art, LACMA, and the Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art. She lives and works in New York City. The Visiting Artist Program has been a vital component of the Department Art and Art History since 1972. Each year, 8-10 nationally recognized artists present diverse ideas and their body of work during their visit to the Boulder campus.
