The Smart Museum of Art delves into the heart of middle America and comes up with surprising results in this two-part exhibition, organised with the Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven. The Dutch segment, on view last year, presented to a European audience a broad
survey of the Midwest’s culture, art and music. The Smart’s version looks at independent artist
communities in centres such as Detroit and Kansas City. Design 99 (Gina Reichert & Mitch Cope) have been towing an old speedboat through the Midwest. “By the time they arrive in Chicago, they’ll have transformed it into a portable, carnivalesque sculpture,” says curator Stephanie Smith. Kansas City’s dance and variety show Whoop Dee Doo performs in Chicago in its first ever museum commission. H.S.

The “Master of Swish” receives a major exhibition in his hometown of Ferrara, focusing largely on works created by the artist in Paris between 1871 and 1886. This show explores how impressionists such as Manet, Degas, Meissonier and Caillebotte influenced the early work of the Italian, who is widely regarded as one of the greatest Belle Epoque portrait painters of 1890s Paris.
Giovanni Boldini (1842-1931) moved to Paris in 1871, settling in the Place Pigalle, an area popular with artists and writers. He quickly became accustomed to life in the French capital and befriended leading artists of the day including Degas, whom he often accompanied to the theatre and concert halls. It was a prolific and highly experimental period for Boldini, during which he created pieces in several genres including portraiture and landscapes. On view are 100 works of various genres drawn from international public and private collections.
The show opens with an early self-portrait made in Florence in 1865 while he was a student at the Accademia di Belle Arti. On loan from the Modern Art Gallery at the Pitti Palace, the painting shows Boldini’s modern take on portraiture by depicting himself in his study rather than opting for a neutral environment.
The exhibition is organised into thematic sections including: fanciful paintings created specifically for the American and European art markets; cityscapes that record modern life; landscapes; scenes that capture the vibrant nightlife of Paris including a painting of a singer entiled, La Cantante Mondana, about 1884; scenes of his atelier, including A Woman in Black, about 1888; and finally, for what Boldini is by far best remembered—portraiture. The show ends with his society portraits. Like Sargent, Boldini counted the crème de la crème of high society among his patrons. An 1894 portrait of socialite and author Gertrude Elizabeth Blood, Lady Colin Campbell is on loan from the National Portrait Gallery, London.
After its debut in Ferrara, the exhibition will travel across the pond to the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, Massachusetts (14 February-25 April 2010). The US presentation will be the first major display of Boldini’s work outside Europe. E.S.

After a 20-year break from Giacometti (the last Genevan exhibition was in 1986), the curator of the Musée d’Art et d’Histoire, Nadia Schneider, has designed an exhibition of sculpture, drawings, notebooks and photographs illustrative of his career between 1835 and 1946. In this period, he abandoned the influences of his impressionist-inspired father, Giovanni, and of the surrealists, and turned to figurative art, in particular to representations of the human body. The early part of this period sees the diminution of heads and figures which later becomes an investigation of the relationship between distance and dimension. This chapter is bracketed by earlier and later works to highlight this radical change. The exhibition has been made in collaboration with the Fondation Alberto Giacometti, Zurich, which has loaned a number of the exhibits.

Swiss-born Sophie Taeuber-Arp (1889-1943) is an artist whose work transcends boundaries. A real “renaissance artist”, Taeuber-Arp embraced many disciplines, from painting and embroidery to puppetry and interior design, with equal vigour and intensity. She was greatly admired by contemporaries such as surrealist Hugnet, Kandinsky and her husband, fellow artist and collaborator Jean Arp, and the German artist Hugo Ball once said: “Everything to do with Taeuber has the luminosity of sunlight…she is full of invention, whim and extravagance”. An active member of multiple avant-garde movements, her work shows elements of dada, constructivism and abstraction. Curated by Spanish scholar Estrella de Diego, this exhibition—the first of its kind in Spain—brings together 130 pieces including paintings, textiles, drawings, furniture, photographs, plans, puppets and collages drawn from public and private collections in Germany, France, Switzerland and the US.
The exhibition is divided into three sections. The first, “Broken Rhythms” focuses on her early work when constructivism and dada coexisted openly. This section contains Portrait of Jean Arp, 1918, one of the artist’s iconic “dada heads”. “Inhabiting Spaces” explores her involvement in interior design and architectural projects. The final section, “Living Geometry” is devoted to the display of a series of her striking, geometrical abstractions. E.S.

The role of female artists in the surrealist movement is explored in this exhibition, which features about 100 works by 33 artists. Female surrealist artists are often remembered for their relationships with male colleagues rather than their contribution to the history of art. This exhibition shows how artists such as Lee Miller, Frida Kahlo, Leonora Carrington and Eileen Agar employed traditional male-dominated genres such as landscape, still-life and portraiture to create empowering and often erotic works. In addition to paintings, prints, photographs and sculptures, ephemera such as poetry, books, photographs and letters are also on view. E.S.

This exhibition celebrates the prominent American realist painter and printmaker Edward Hopper (1882-1967), renowned for his visions of modern American life and the subtleties of human interaction. Following recent major shows in his native country, this presentation, curated by Carter Foster of the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, is the first of its kind in Italy with more than 160 works from public and private collections spanning his entire career. Organised chronologically and thematically, it includes works such as Second Story Sunlight, 1960, and A Woman in the Sun, 1961 (above), both of which depict subjects from life in tranquil, middle-class apartments. Produced by the Palazzo Reale, Fondazione Roma and Artemisia, the show travels next to the Museo del Corso in Rome (16 February-13 June 2010). Katelyn Kucey

Towards the end of the 18th century, Edmund Burke summed up Mrs Delany as “a real fine lady, the model of an accomplished woman of former times”, a succinct and just verdict: Mary Delany, née Granville (1700-88), was the epitome of sense and sensibility. A niece of George Granville, First Baron Lansdowne, she was a friend of Handel, corresponded with Swift, was entertained by Garrick, courted by John Wesley, discussed botany with Banks and Solander, studied drawing with Hogarth, flower drawing with Ehret, painting with Goupy, her collages were praised by Reynolds, and her portrait was painted by Opie.
At the age of 17, she had entered into a loveless arranged marriage with Alexander Pendarves, MP, 40 years her senior. When he died in 1724, she moved to London where she began to create a circle of friends and acquaintances and to perfect her talents as an artist, writer and needlewoman. Following an introduction in 1776 to King George III and Queen Charlotte, she moved to a small house in Windsor, provided by the royal couple, to facilitate frequent visits.
This exhibition, created in collaboration with Sir John Soane’s Museum (whither it travels, 18 February-1 May 2010), consists of 130 objects that belonged to or were associated with her: drawings, embroidery, shell-work, botanical specimens, manuscripts and, above all, her découpages—extraordinary illustrations of plants and flowers, made entirely of colour paper.

One of the museum’s most popular canvases, a monumental triptych of Monet’s garden pond at Giverny, is the centrepiece of this show, which brings together all of the impressionist’s late works in the collection. Other paintings on view include The Japanese Footbridge, 1920-22, and Agapanthus, 1918-19, as well as loans from other museums. Organised by MoMA’s chief curator of painting and sculpture, Ann Temkin, the display opened at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta this summer as part of an ongoing collaboration between the two institutions, with support from Bank of America.

The Philadelphia Museum of Art launches a major show of abstract expressionist Arshile Gorky, which tours to Tate London and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles next year. The show examines Gorky’s entire career from the early 1920s until his suicide in 1948, and includes 180 works of art. It includes work in so-called “creation chambers”, based on descriptions of the artist’s studio in Union Square, New York, where some of his best-known paintings are shown alongside preparatory drawings.

Paintings from the Hague School (1860-90) are here presented alongside documentary photographs, both of which point to the impact that the industrial revolution had on the 19th-century rural Dutch landscape. The exhibition reveals, through more than 90 paintings and photographs, the landscape that has gradually become overtaken by Dutch industrialisation. The works are supplemented by a film by Bert Koenderink about the industrial revolution that informs the landscape painting of the time.
The paintings and photos have been gathered from the collections of the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, and the Neue Pinakothek, Munich. The exhibition capitalises on the partial closure for renovation of the Rijksmuseum to secure loans that make up a large part of the display. Aside from paintings and photographs, other historical material is presented, such as railway maps, that further illustrate the evolution of the Hague School’s native landscape.
A large part of the photographic material comes from Johann Georg Hameter (1838-85). Hameter presented work at the first exhibition of photography in the Netherlands in 1855 and his photographs on show here tell us as much about early photography as they do about the rapidly industrialised landscape.

This group show of works from the Tate Collection examines esoteric influences on the development of 20th-century art. It consists of works by artists including Derek Jarman, Henry Moore, Paul Nash, John Stezeker and Mark Titchner, tracing the links between the romanticism of the mythological and the forward thinking of modernity. It looks at mysticism and the occult in Britain, and their relationships with modernism, surrealism and neo-romanticism. Curated by the Tate St Ives’ artistic director Martin Clark, alongside curator and critic Michael Bracewell and artist Alun Rowlands, the show has been assembled thematically based around generational artistic influences, to give the viewer an understanding Clark felt would not be seen chronologically. Film screenings, and family events have been programmed to coincide with Halloween. Above, John Russell, Untitled [Fairie Poem], 2009. W.O.

Washington is awash with photography shows this month, starting at the National Gallery of Art (NGA), where a collection of portraits donated to the museum by the street photographer Robert Bergman are on view, many for the first time. “Robert Bergman: Portraits” includes 33 large-scale colour photographs of people Bergman met on the street in the 1980s. Also at the NGA is “In the Darkroom: Photographic Processes”, a show that traces the major technological developments in photography from early experiments by Henry Fox Talbot and the mass appeal of Polaroids to the highly manipulative medium of digital photography.
Over at the Phillips Collection is “Man Ray, African Art and the Modernist Lens”, which presents around 100 photographs by Man Ray and his contemporaries, such as Cecil Beaton, Walker Evans, and Alfred Stieglitz. Also on display are 20 African objects depicted in the images. H.S.
