Artist Talk: Dana Clancy. 1pm-1:30pm. Hollister

Meet Dana Clancy, creator of the works seen in Points of

View. Clancy paints places that she has experienced in

person and works from multiple photographs to create a

composite image whose geometric edges draw attention

to the experience of being in these environments.

Clancy’s work has been in solo exhibitions at Boston

University, the Danforth Museum of Art, the Brattleboro

Museum & Art Center, and Laconia Gallery in Boston's South End. She has participated in group

exhibitions nationally, including Delta Axis at Marshall Arts, Memphis, and Bowery Gallery, New

made from recyclable items or vintage

clothes. The segments include our

interpretation of the Uniform Project, Paper

and Plastic, Denim, and Vintage. Many of

the items are made by students here at

as Turkey from a course on sustainability.

After the show, items will be on display in

Reynolds, near the sustainability office, and

in Trim, near the art studio.

BABSON FINE ARTS ASSOCIATION Presents An Altered Book Workshop! Taught by Susanna Kroll

Learn how to recycle used books into works of art by creating collages out of the pages! Tell your own story in a very unique way! No experience necessary. All supplies are provided, but bring photographs, magazines, fabric, etc to put into your collages to make it your own! Unleash your creativity by reconstructing a story to make it your own. You’ll use used books to piece together a new story out of images.

Points of View. Hollister Gallery On display until January 21, 2011 Hours: Monday – Thursday 8:00 am-7:00 pm

Dana Clancy’s artwork is about

the rituals associated with

traveling and looking, with

places that are specifically set

up as viewing spaces. The artist

is interested in the way we use

photography to remember and

communicate a visual

experience. She only paints

places that she has experienced in person and works from multiple photographs to create a

complex composite image whose geometric edges draw attention to the touch of the artist

and reference the immersive sometimes overwhelming experience of being in these

particular environments.

The paintings on view at Babson are an expansion

of her series exploring people’s interaction with art

and architecture in museums. Clancy has used her

finely tuned sense of color and form to re-frame

spaces within the Guggenheim, MOMA, Tate, and

Mass MOCA, to make paintings that speak to the

intensity and alteration of memory.

In “Points of View” she has made a new series of

shaped paintings based on Anish Kapoor’s

sculpture Cloud Gate and the Renzo Piano addition

to the Art Institute of Chicago. Taking her

geometric perspective explorations into three

dimensions through the use of architectural model

board as a painting surface allows Clancy to create

intimate sculptural paintings whose lines, shapes,

and silver surfaces change as the viewer moves.

Dana Clancy is a painter and assistant professor at Boston University's School of Visual Arts.

She received a BA in English Literature from Vassar College and an MFA in Painting from

Boston University.

Ms. Clancy has exhibited her work in solo exhibitions at Boston University, the Danforth Museum of Art, the Brattleboro Museum & Art Center, and Laconia Gallery in Boston's South End. She has been included in group exhibitions nationally, including Delta Axis at Marshall Arts, Memphis, and Bowery Gallery, New York.
