Exhibition Tour: Art and Industry in Early America
August 19, 2016–January 8, 2017
Curator Patricia Kane leads a tour of this groundbreaking exhibition that presents a comprehensive survey of Rhode Island furniture from the colonial and early Federal periods, including elaborately carved chairs, high chests, bureau tables, and clocks. Drawing together more than 130 exceptional objects from museums, historical societies, and private collections, the show highlights major aesthetic innovations developed in the region. In addition to iconic, stylish pieces from important centers of production like Providence and Newport, the exhibition showcases simpler examples made in smaller towns and for export. The exhibition also addresses the surprisingly broad reach of Rhode Island’s furniture production, from the boom of the export trade at the turn of the 17th century and its steady growth throughout the 18th century to the gradual decline of the handcraft tradition in the 19th century. Reflecting on one of New England’s most important artistic traditions, Art and Industry in Early America encourages a newfound appreciation for this dynamic school of American furniture making.

In 1939 the founding Articles of Incorporation said: The Corporation is constituted for the purpose of developing and maintaining civic, cultural and recreational interests to serve all ages and both sexes and to direct character building and community betterment programs among the citizens of Providence.

Rhode Island has a proud tradition of independence and a number of historic firsts. The smallest state in the union is one of America’s precious gems and a microcosm of New England. The first armed conflict with the British took place in Warwick, Rhode Island with the burning of the Gaspee, and the Industrial Revolution has its origins at Slater Mill. Preservation of history in the form of 18th century architecture is a major concern in Newport. Twentieth century mansions line the bluff in the Bellevue District including Astors Beechwood Speakeasy, which brings to life the past through entertainment, music and acting. Visitors to Rose Island can step back in time by staying at a lighthouse, in the process learning about stewardship and the responsibilities of being a light keeper. Providence, the state’s capital, has gone through a major transformation in the last decade. The city has become revitalized through a combination of development and civic pride. Barnaby Evans’ WateFire Providence is a moving work of art and a symbol of the city’s transformation. Providence also supports a tasty tradition of culinary excellence nurtured by institutes such as Johnson and Wales University and the Culinary Archives & Museum. The Federal Hill district known as “Little Italy” is famous for its restaurants, boutiques and gourmet food shops. A glimpse into the world of jewelry manufacturing shows the origins of some of the local wealth that was used to create some of the beautifully preserved architecture on Benefit Street. Outside of the capital, small villages and businesses have changed little over time, including historic Coggleshall Farm and Kenyons Grist Mill. Block Island draws thousands of summer residents each year who come to experience the pace of island life and its beaches, boating and fishing. Rhode Island might be small in size but it is a state rich in history, culture and color.

Wendy Edwards in conversation with Ruth Fine, 11.15.19
Luscious: Paintings and Drawings By Wendy Edwards, Wendy Edwards in conversation with Ruth Fine, November 15, 2019 at the List Art Building, Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island.
Wendy Edwards’ artworks are bold and exuberant, marked by her masterly use of color, her exploration of the physicality of media—primarily oil pigments and soft Sennelier pastels—and her abiding commitment to a feminist vision.This retrospective exhibition—including fifty-six paintings and drawings—spans the four decades of work that Edwards has created since joining the faculty of Brown’s Department of Visual Art in 1980.
Edwards came of artistic age in the late seventies, when Pattern and Decoration (P&D) was a prevalent artistic movement. Positioned as a response to minimalism, P&D embraced color—which Edwards acknowledges as foremost among her artistic passions—and decorative patterns drawn from textiles that were often associated with “craft” and gendered as feminine, women’s work.
Throughout her oeuvre, Edwards chronicles and responds to experiences relating to her travels, to events in her personal life, and to her interest in nature and natural forms. In the mid-eighties, she traveled to China for the first time. The landscape, so foreign to Edwards, is reflected in images of imbalance. Rice paddies shift diagonally and horizon lines tilt in Elephant Trunk, 1985, and other works from this period. An image of a baby refers to the birth of the artist’s daughter, Georgia. Other travels have left their mark: in drawings of icebergs, produced during a residency in Newfoundland in 1998; in motifs from Pennsylvania Dutch furniture and ceramics in works for an exhibition in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, in 1993; and in drawings of lace coiffes, hats traditionally worn in Pont-Aven, where Edwards taught during summers between 1995 and 2011.
Iconic compositions of centrally placed objects—flowers, leaves, neckties—appear often in Edwards’ works from the late eighties and continue intermittently to the present day. Opulently rendered cross-sections of fruit (Georgia Peach, 1989; and Fig, 1991 ) are reminiscent of Georgia O’Keeffe’s sensual floral imagery—an association with sex that Edwards makes explicit in a stunning, gestural painting titled Dickhead, 1993. Painterly abstractions led Edwards to more experimental mark-making—the application of pigment extruded through cake-decorating tools. Combining the decorative with geometric abstraction, Edwards created works in which wavy-edged ribbons of pigment defined patterns of concentric squares. In another approach, seen in Blue Net, 2001, she fashioned “nets” that overlie grounds of flat or swirling color. The nets remained a major force in Edwards’ work for more than a decade, later employed in combination with elements such as flower blossoms or vases, which they obscured or enhanced.
Two strains of work have occupied Edwards over the past decade. The first was a foray into collage employing Mexican oilcloth. While in Comillas, Spain, Edwards began to use this patterned material as a convenient substrate for paintings. Later, she combined fragments cut from oilcloth with her distinctive nets, creating images like Tipper, 2012, that harken back to P&D.
The second strain continues her fascination with natural forms. A series of small-scaled paintings of flowers reveal Edwards’ dialogue with earlier art. Examples include Monsieur Ed, 2009, in dark brooding tones of brown, black, orange, and white, and Watteau’s Gift, 2009, rendered in pastel pinks and blues. Flourish and Mounted, both from 2019 and the most recent works in the exhibition, are reinterpretations of Van Gogh’s irises.
