Description
Title of Session: Abstraction, Landscape and Contemporary Woodcut
Chair: Endi Poskovic, Stamps School of Art and Design, University of Michigan
Panel Members: Teresa Cole, Tulane University, New Orleans
Katy Collier, independent artist, Minneapolis
Susan Goethel Campbell, independent artist, Detroit
Goedele Peeters, Academie Berchem Beeldende Kunsten, Antwerp, Belgium
Abstract: The origin of modern abstraction may be rooted in the 19th-century Romantic landscape tradition of Northern Europe; a premise set forth by renowned American art historian and professor Robert Rosenblum (1927-2006) in the early 1970s. This panel invites artists and makers, critical thinkers and art historians interested in expanding the conversation about the heritage of modern abstraction and whose creative and scholarly research explore the evolution of the 19th-century ideal into the vernacular of contemporary woodcut print.
