      January 14, 2012

      The Deconstructive Impulse: Women Artists Reconfigure the Signs of Power, 1973-1991 is a survey of leading women artists that examines the crucial feminist contribution to the development of deconstructivism in the 1970s and ’80s. As the term suggests, deconstructivism involved taking apart and examining source material, generally borrowed from the mass media, to expose the ways commercial images reveal the mechanisms of power. Women had a particularly high stake in this kind of examination and were disproportionately represented among artists who practiced it.

      Love, sacrifice and redemption: La Traviata’s dazzling heroine embodies all three in one of opera’s most beloved stories. The story of Violetta Valéry, a Parisian courtesan who makes the fatal mistake of falling in love, has defined romantic tragedy since La dame aux Camélias, the Dumás novel that inspired Verdi, appeared in 1848.

      January 06, 2012

      Neva Mikulicz is a Houston artist working in pencil on paper drawings combined with projected/embedded videos. The detailed drawings are based on photographs she finds in family albums and archives alike. They represent a return to a baby boomer childhood of the 1950s, but each photograph, in being re-rendered by her pencil, acquires a nearly ineffable unease. It is in this tension that the artist finds her distinct voice.
