SUMMARY:The Faces Of Ruth Asawa
DESCRIPTION:From the mid-1960s through 2000\, Asawa created hundreds of individual face masks out of clay. With the Cantor’s Asian American Art Initiative\, this wall of 233 masks becomes a permanent part of their collection. \nThe Asian American Art Initiative (AAAI) transforms Stanford into the leading academic and curatorial center for Asian American art. Alexander and Marci Kwon\, assistant professor in Stanford’s Department of Art and Art History\, serve as AAAI co-directors. As part of the initiative\, the Cantor works to build the preeminent collection of Asian American art at a university art museum. \nThe Cantor acquired Untitled (LC.012\, Wall of Masks) in 2020. On July 6\, 2022\, they go on long-term view at the museum\, marking the first time this work has been shown in its entirety at any museum or public institution. The focused exhibition\, The Faces of Ruth Asawa\, curated by Alexander\, features the masks and three vessels by Asawa’s son Paul Lanier. These special vessels were created with clay mixed with the ashes of Asawa\, her husband Albert\, and their late son\, Adam. Upon Asawa’s death—per her request—Lanier took this material and threw a set of vessels\, one for each remaining sibling. The three included in The Faces of Ruth Asawa were borrowed from the family. Their inclusion in the exhibition further demonstrates Asawa’s deeply intimate connection to clay. \nHear from Asawa’s family and friends\, including mask subjects\, about her process making the masks > \nThe museum is open Wed – Sun\, free with reservations. Reserve here > \nEnd date is open-ended.

SUMMARY:Woven Histories: Textiles and Modern Abstraction
DESCRIPTION:Want to appreciate more art and design in your daily life? Just look down. The apparel we wear reflects not only our personal tastes and values but also a profound relationship to modern art. Woven Histories: Textiles and Modern Abstraction reveals the myriad ways textiles intersect with and influence world-renowned modern artists and movements. \nWoven Histories delves into dynamic moments when social and political issues have activated textile production and artmaking with heightened focus and urgency. Traced chronologically with 160 works made in a range of techniques—from oil painting to weaving\, basketry\, netting\, knotting\, and knitting—the exhibition explores the overlap between abstract art\, fashion\, design\, and craft. \nPictured (L to R): Untitled (S.310\, Hanging Five-Lobed Continuous Form Within a Form with Spheres in the Second\, Third\, and Bottom Lobes)\, Untitled (S.089\, Hanging Asymmetrical Twelve Interlocking Bubbles)\, and Untitled (S.027\, Hanging Six-and-a-Half Open Hyperbolic Shapes that Penetrate Each Other) \nInstallation photo of the exhibition Woven Histories: Textiles and Modern Abstraction at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (Sep 17\, 2023 – Jan 21\, 2024)\, Artwork @ 2023 Ruth Asawa Lanier\, Inc./Artists Rights Society (ARS)\, New York.
