NEW YORK, NY - The first major New York exhibition in 20 years devoted to Francis Bacon (British, 1909–1992)—one of the most important painters of the 20th century—will be presented at The Metropolitan Museum of Art from May 20 through August 16, 2009. Marking the 100th anniversary of the artist's birth, Francis Bacon: A Centenary Retrospective will bring together the most significant works from each period of the artist's remarkable career. Drawn from public and private collections around the world, this landmark exhibition will consist of some 65 paintings, complemented by never-before-seen works and archival material from the Francis Bacon Estate, which will shed new light on the artist's career and working practices. The Metropolitan Museum is the sole U.S. venue of the exhibition tour. "Bacon is more compelling than ever: despite the passage of time, his paintings remain fresh, urgent, and mysterious. Never before has this work been more relevant to young artists,...

In 1980, artist Stan VanDerBeek (1927-1984) recalled a dream he had of the ideal exhibition space: a dark room with “projected images, movies, and stills everywhere,” which he playfully referred to as “amazement park.” Suspended by a wire device, the viewer swings through the space as “images like snowflakes…fly past.” The experience would “reinforce by way of visual metaphors that the whole life experience is about sharing.” Amazement Park is a yearlong exhibition that combines work by the influential filmmaker and artist with work by his daughter Sara VanDerBeek (b. 1976) and son Johannes VanDerBeek (b. 1982). Taking inspiration from Stan VanDerBeek’s dream exhibition, Amazement Park presents an experimental studio-like space that will change every month. Works by each artist will be on view, from never before seen Stan VanDerBeek drawings from the 1950’s to new photographs and sculpture by Sara and Johannes VanDerBeek. The evolving nature of the project mirrors the spirit of their w...

SAVE THE DATE: OPENING June 18, 2009 at 6.30pm at Museum of Biblical Art (MOBIA) 1865 Broadway, 61st street New York RE… Re-Cycle, Re-Create, Re-Imagine An Exhibition by Vickie Frémont The exhibition will be visible, non-stop, to pedestrians of all ages, ethnicities, sexes, and economic levels 24hour/7days from June 18, through September 30, 2009. The project, which is sponsored by the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council and the Museum of Biblical Art (MOBIA), will combine a series of recycling workshops and an art exhibition of puppets representing each African country. MOBIA is delighted to be the site of the exhibition and workshops. Since contemporary theological discourse touches upon the spiritual underpinnings of the ecological movement, namely that we, as stewards of God’s good creation, are morally bound to conserve and preserve our physical world in all its beauty much as we are bound to live reverently with one another, the RE… project is perfectly suited to MOBIA’s missio...
