In my artwork, I make use of my technical skill to explore women’s societal roles and stereotypes throughout history. I take on an age-old subject, speculating about what it means to live out one’s life in a female body. Although my work has taken various forms, from small iconic squares – evocative of reliquaries, made with enamel, paint, and charcoal – to large-scale drawings on wallpapered surfaces, the female figure has been the primary character. Onto some pieces I have burnt patterns and designs with a wood-burning tool, tracing in some ways, the paths of human beings, and/or Celtic designs evocative of interlocking structures. The little gouache paintings in the series Body Renderings describe how women occupy space and time. They deal with the over-extension of women in domestic and exterior spaces, nature as false comfort, and the investigation of self—the distortion of the notion of “femaleness” and the subsequent objectification and manipulation of this image. Many of my figure drawings of less-than-idealized women’s bodies show a transparency so that we can “see through” to the structures beneath, the skeletal “permanence,” and our dependence and reliance upon this physical structure. So much of our existence depends upon our physical form. Degrees: Indiana University of PA B. S. in Secondary Education: Language Arts 1965 B. F.

2007-09-24T07:24:05-04:00

Bob Bingham makes art that incorporates systems of growth, live plants and natural materials with mechanical and electronic devices. Through this combination of systems he addresses issues pertaining to a sustainable future where technology and nature exist in a symbiotic relationship. Bingham¹s work has been widely exhibited in the United States, Italy and Japan including The Institute of Contemporary Art, Philadelphia; The Brooklyn Museum; The Andy Warhol Museum; Mattress Factory; Ecovention, Contemporary Arts Center, Cincinnati; Kanagawa Hall Gallery, Yokohama, Japan; Art+Nature, Rico Gallery, Santa Monica; and Urban Paradise/Gardens in the City, Paine Weber Art Gallery, New York. He has had many public installations including Creative Time¹s Brooklyn Bridge Anchorage; in Piazza del¹ St. Stepheno Rome, Italy and the first Pittsburgh Center for the Arts Biennial. He co-directed an interdisciplinary team effort, The Nine Mile Run Greenway Project that culminated in exhibits at the Wood Street Galleries and the Regina Miller Gallery, CMU, Pittsburgh. This greenway project led to the formation of the Nine Mile Run Watershed Association and the largest ecological urban stream restoration in the USA. Bingham received a BA in art from Montana State University, Bozeman and a MFA from University of California, Davis. He is currently Professor of Art and a Distinguished Fellow in the STUDIO For Creative Inquiry at Carnegie Mellon University. His work has been acknowledged with awards and grants including the National Endowments for the Arts, Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, Pollock-Krasner Foundation, Art Matters, Inc., Three Rivers Environmental Award, The Heinz Endowments and several Berkman Faculty Development Fund Grants. His art practice evolved from “green” mixed media installations into the public realm to address issues of interconnectedness between the natural and built environment. This evolution directly affected his approach as a teacher. Bingham created a new course, Environmental Sculpture, in 1996 as part of the Environment Across the Curriculum Initiative at Carnegie Mellon. Later as a member of the University’s Green Practices committee, he advised a student project and taught a course to conceptually design and assist the implementation of a “living roof” on campus. Another collaborative project, Greenscape, was created in conjunction with the School of Architecture’s Design and Build Studio to literally grow the 2007 Solar Decathlon House. As part of the Greening of Early Undergraduate Education Initiative, he began teaching a university-wide course, EcoArt, involving a collaboration with the Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy to address removal of invasive species, soil retention issues and raingardens in Phipps Run, Schenley Park. This course now continues at a variety of other locations and with other organizations. Currently he is working through the Coleman Center for the Arts on a long-term collaborative project, One Mile Garden, to establish a community-based urban farming and food distribution program in York, Alabama. Bingham continues his mission to create proposals for growing all the buildings on the planet and to change the perspective Œfor the birds’ and the humans via Google Earth. bbigwitz@andrew.cmu.edu

Having been educated at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and the University of Pennsylvania and at the Instituto Allende in San Miguel Mexico, Lowry Burgess is an internationally renowned artist and educator who created the first official art payload taken into outer space by NASA in 1989 among his many Space Art works. He is considered one of the few pioneers of the Space Art movement that now has grown to hundreds of artists all over the world. After the destruction of the Buddhas in Bamiyan, Afghanistan in 2001, he authored the “Toronto Manifesto, The Right to Human Memory” that received worldwide endorsement. One of the provisions of the Manifesto has led to the creation of a new global value/incentive for the protection of cultural sites throughout the world. This new value/incentive is in the process being implemented by UNESCO and the World Bank. His artworks are in museums and archives in the US and Europe. He has exhibited widely in art and science museums in the US, Canada, throughout Europe, as well as Japan including various internationals such as Documenta, the Vienna Biennal and his recent solo exhibition at the Carnegie Museum of Art. Art Historian Raymond Vezina, at the University of Quebec, states that “He shares this utopic, visionary tradition extending from Saint Augustine, through Dante, Thomas Moore to William Blake and the American transcendentalists of the 19th century: Henry David Thoreau, Ralph Waldo Emerson and, more recently Gyorgy Kepes.” He is Professor of Art and former Dean of the College of Fine Arts and Distinguished Fellow in the STUDIO for Creative Inquiry at Carnegie Mellon University. He has founded and administrated many departments, programs and institutions during his 45 years as an educator in the arts. He has created curricula in the arts and humanities in the US and Europe while serving for twelve years on the National Humanities Faculty. For 27 years he has been a Fellow, Senior Consultant and Advisor at the Center for Advanced Visual Studies at MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts where he created and directed large collaborative projects and festivals in the US and Europe. “First Night”, the international New Year’s arts festival, was created and founded by him. He originated the first “Arts in the Subways” program for the Department of Transportation and has developed and advised in more than a dozen major city scale projects. He has received awards from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, the National Institute of Arts and Letters, the Guggenheim Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation and several awards from the National Endowment for the Arts and the Massachusetts Artists Foundation, and the Kellogg Foundation and the Berkmann Fund. He received the Leonardo Da Vinci Space Art Award from the National Space Society. His book, “Burgess, the Quiet Axis” received the Imperishable Gold Award from Le Devoir in Montreal. Among his hundreds of exhibitions and performances, most recently, his artworks have been exhibited at SETI in Mountain View, CA., the Festival of Art Outsiders, and the CNES, the French Space Agency in Paris, as well as a solo exhibition at the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh and with his newly formed “Deep Space Signaling Group” in an artwork involving the International Space Station and NASA in April 2008. He continues work on new aspects of his lifework, the “Quiet Axis”. He has been featured in television and radio broadcasts in the US, Europe, Canada and Japan. (NOVA, “Artists in the Lab”; Smithsonian World, “Elephant on a Hill”, “Artists of Earthwatch”: “Arts and New Technologies” (Tokyo 12); “Artransition” (Austrian, German National Television and 24 other state television systems); “The Quiet Axis” (Hungarian State Television), and more than two hundred national and international radio broadcasts including 3 NPR broadcasts on his works. He has appeared on CBS Today Show and in numerous other appearances on television in Canada and Europe and has been widely published in numerous newspapers and magazines. lb30@andrew.cmu.edu

John Carson was appointed in May 2006 as the Regina Gouger Miller Department Head of the School of Art. Carson succeeds Susanne Slavick, who returns to the school's faculty. "John Carson comes to us from one of the great London art schools and brings with him extensive experience in leading one of the top UK programs," said Hilary Robinson, the Stanley and Marcia Gumberg Dean of the College of Fine Arts. "He is a wonderful communicator about the role of art in broader communities and a believer in artists as agents for change. It will be a great pleasure to see his sensibilities at work in the university and in the city of Pittsburgh." Carson joined Carnegie Mellon from Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London, where he was a principal lecturer in fine art and Course Director for the Bachelor of Fine Arts program. He directed all stages of full-time and part-time curriculum development, organized the guest lecture program and a professional practice course component, and coordinated placements, external projects and international exchange. "I believe in the power and necessity of art. I enjoy making art happen, whether it is my work or the work of others," Carson says. "I enjoy sharing ideas and being able to pass on the benefit of my experience to others, and enabling and encouraging learning through experience. I believe that the School of Art at Carnegie Mellon offers a supportive yet intellectually challenging environment for innovative, inspiring and important work." Carson was also a lecturer in fine art and photography at the National College of Art & Design in Dublin and a visiting artist and lecturer at various schools and colleges in Britain, Ireland, Europe, the United States, Australia and New Zealand. Carson has been an arts consultant for various organizations, including BBC-TV; Public Art Development Trust; Arts Council of England; London Arts; Temple Bar Properties; Bartle Bogle Hegarty Advertising; Motorola European Student Art Competition; Olay Award for Women Artists; TRBI (Marketing); De La Warr Pavilion, Sculptor's Society of Ireland; Ballymun Regeneration Ltd., Dublin; European League of Art Institutions; and Hong Kong Baptist University. He has also acted as a referee for several Arts and Humanities Research Council applications. He has written in the field of multimedia art, and his writing has appeared in various catalogues, magazines and books around the world. He recently published "Performance Art Tips," an artists' page for Circa Art Magazine; and the "Something Strange" group exhibition catalog published by The Aine Art Museum in Finland. He edited "Out of the Bubble, Approaches to Contextual Practice within Fine Art Education" with Susannah Silver, published by The London Institute. Carson is also a practicing multimedia artist. He will performed "Bexhill Bow-Wow" at the De La Warr Pavilion, Bexhill-on-Sea in August 2006, and "Singing the Blues" with John Say for the Camberwell Arts Festival; "Peckham Pet-tastic" with John Say in Peckham Square; and "Ten Out of Ten," a solo performance at the Camberwell Leisure Centre in London for Camberwell Artsweek. Carson was a member of the University of the Arts London (UAL) Academic Board and the UAL Course Directors' working group on resourcing. He was the convener of the Fine Art Practices research group, and a member of the London Institute Student Support Committee and the Academic Developments Approval Group for proposed new courses at the London Institute (now UAL). He received his bachelor of fine arts from the University of Ulster at Belfast in 1976 and his master's degree in fine arts at the California Institute of the Arts in 1983. wjcarson@cmu.edu

Sarah Eldridge is currently teaching courses in literature and writing at Shady Side Academy and at Carnegie Mellon University. Her graduate thesis writing seminar in the School of Art is informed by the literary and visual arts, inviting MFA students to explore linkages in the visual-verbal tradition and the logic of symbolic expression. Interest in the art of composing developed during her undergraduate years in the School of Art where the critique honed sharper vision in self-criticism through language. Her curiosity about language in the visual arts also heightened as she discovered the tough-minded eloquence of many published journals and manifestos written by visual artists. The power of the image in language arts and the power of the word in visual arts has become her research focus both in and out of school. She earned her doctorate in rhetoric at Carnegie Mellon and continues to investigate the creative process, most recently as a Fellow in CMU’s Center for Innovation in Learning, and presently as a participant in The Banff Centre’s program, “Making Artistic Inquiry Visible.” She writes poetry to satisfy her own muse and, when the unutterable settles in, she paints in her home studio. sarahe@andrew.cmu.edu

Jamie Gruzska is currently teaching advanced painting, but he is usually found working with photography here at Carnegie Mellon as faculty and administrator for that program. He has studied intaglio printmaking and painting in both undergraduate (Carnegie Mellon) and graduate school (University of Buffalo) and has been practicing photography since he was eleven. Gruzska has taught various painting, printmaking and photography courses here and elsewhere and specializes in photo-intaglio processes, including photogravure. Several years ago, he constructed a darkroom in his home, claiming it would be the “last analog darkroom built in the western world.” Happily, in this digital age, he finds that the demand for learning darkroom practice seems to be more alluring than ever. One of his favorite books is the Selected Writings of Ad Reinhardt and he quotes from it often. He continues a collaboration with the Vermont-based sculptor Michael Singer in generative photo-intaglio prints, started in 1991. Gruzska has exhibited at non-profit spaces/museums and has received a number of awards, including a Pennsylvania Council for the Arts Grant and a Vermont Studio Center fellowship. He recently exhibited in No Legs, Alogon Gallery, Chicago and Art of the State: Pennsylvania, State Museum of Pennsylvania. gruzska<img src="/images/at.gif">andrew.cmu.edu

Andrew Johnson was born in Cortland, New York to a jazz guitarist, civil war historian father and science major mother who, together, won many bowling tournaments. He made his first life-size faux bronze sculpture of Baron Manfred Von Richtoven at the age of 13, miniature marzipan figurines of Fats Waller at 11 and his first film cycle on the battle of Gettysburg at 9. In pursuit of his film and painting interests, he studied at SUNY Buffalo and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago where he received his BFA. After years in Europe and Asia, he earned an MFA in Art at Carnegie Mellon while serving as an artist-in-residence at the Pennsylvania Department of Corrections, curating an exhibition of inmate art at the City Theater, and presenting five solo exhibits in the tri-state region. Subsequently he attended Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture and a residency through Poznan Academy of Art in Poland. His nomadic teaching career included positions at College of the Holy Cross, University of Nebraska in Omaha, West Virginia University, a five-month studio stint in Amsterdam, and five years at University at Buffalo where, with Millie Chen and Paul Vanouse, he co-founded PED in 2001. PED is a socially engaged collective that has offered bicycle/lecture tours for international site-specific projects in Buffalo, Hamilton, Belfast, Chongqing and Rio de Janeiro. Since 2004, Johnson has been Associate Professor at Carnegie Mellon School of Art, punctuated by a 2006 teaching residency at Korean National University of the Arts in Seoul. Johnson’s exhibitions address exigencies of daily realities and undress the refined aesthetics of art. Some past exhibition topics include: the Haitian grass roots movement in Lavalas; homelessness in Cincinnati’s Over the Rhine neighborhood in A•Dressing Room; predatory economics in just another market mop up and StOck OptiOns; hemispheric hegemonies in Democracy on Ice; unabated sowing of land mines in Spring—-Let Them Keep Their Children Tethered; crises in the Middle East in Pressed: When Words Were Earth, Fleece, Fold, The Annunciation II: VICTEORY (sic), Pluck and in And Gazelles?

Golan Levin [b.1972] is an artist, composer, performer and engineer interested in developing artifacts and events which explore supple new modes of reactive expression. His work focuses on the design of systems for the creation, manipulation and performance of simultaneous image and sound, as part of a more general inquiry into the formal language of interactivity, and of nonverbal communications protocols in cybernetic systems. Through performances, digital artifacts, and virtual environments, often created with a variety of collaborators, Levin applies creative twists to digital technologies that highlight our relationship with machines, make visible our ways of interacting with each other, and explore the intersection of abstract communication and interactivity. Identified by Technology Review as one of the world’s “Top 100 Innovators Under 35” [2004], and dubbed by El Pais as “one of the most brilliant figures in contemporary audiovisual art” [2002], Levin has exhibited widely in Europe, America and Asia. Levin’s work combines equal measures of the whimsical, the provocative, and the sublime in a wide variety of online, installation and performance media. He is known for the conception and creation of Dialtones [2001], a concert whose sounds are wholly performed through the carefully choreographed dialing and ringing of the audience’s own mobile phones, and for The Secret Lives of Numbers [2002], an interactive online data visualization featured in the 2004 Whitney Biennial. Previously, Levin was granted an Award of Distinction in the Prix Ars Electronica for his Audiovisual Environment Suite [2000] interactive software and its accompanying audiovisual performance, Scribble [2000]. Most recently, Levin and collaborator Zachary Lieberman premiered Re:mark [2002], an interactive installation, and Messa di Voce [2003], a new-media performance. These projects use augmented-reality technologies to create multi-person, real-time visualizations of their participants’ speech and song. Levin is now in the preliminary research phase of a new body of work, which centers about interactive robotics, machine vision, and the theme of gaze as a primary new mode for human-machine communication. Levin received undergraduate and graduate degrees from the MIT Media Laboratory, where he studied with John Maeda in the Aesthetics and Computation Group. Between degrees, he worked for four years as an interaction designer and research scientist at Interval Research Corporation. Presently Levin is Assistant Professor of Electronic Time-Based Art at Carnegie Mellon University; his work is represented by the Bitforms Gallery, New York City. golan@andrew.cmu.edu

Patricia Maurides is a visual artist whose professional training is multidisciplinary and includes graduate studies in both molecular biology and visual arts. She often works collaboratively on projects that intersect the biological sciences and the visual arts. Integrating her interests in molecular genetics and psychology, Maurides probes issues of identity and origins in her art practice. She frequently uses her body as subject, screen, or conduit for memory play. Maurides teaches “Art and Biology”, a studio laboratory artmaking course that explores interactions between art and biology. “My work involves a palimpsest-like process of generating layered images either using the computer or slide projection. Scientific images, photographs, slides, and childhood picture books are blended to construct narrative tableaus that probe questions of ancestry, memory and evolution. The process for this project uses the computer in two primary stages: for image acquisition and for image construction. The first stage acquires imagery for a data and vocabulary archive. Images of butterfly wing plates and guinea fowl plumage were captured electronically after examination under a scanning electron microscope. A video-probe microscope was also used to scan my body surface and collect digital files. Conventional scanning was used to obtain personal imagery from photographs and grammar books. The second stage integrates images acquired from various sources. I begin with a very deliberate placement of a foundation image. This image functions similarly to stretching a canvas and applying a base coat. What happens next may eventually obscure this original image or not. Chance has always been a chief contributor to my work. I look for those unexpected “accidents” that occur when one image is layered onto another. In blending and positioning images, my process suspends control/deliberation and encourages play. The most intriguing and interesting juxtapositions are revealed during this process. In constructing these personal narratives, I make concrete what may only be a feeling or ‘hunch’. Through the layering and explorations of digital images it is my hope to make visible the connections between personal archeology and ancestral memory.” pm3k@andrew.cmu.edu

John Pena holds a BFA from Central Washington University and an MFA 2008 from Carnegie Mellon University. He is a recent Fulbright recipient to La Universidad del Valle Cali, Colombia 2008-9. “Since the beginning of my art making, certain themes have continued to reemerge. These themes concern the landscape in one form or another. I choose the landscape because it is a loaded metaphor from which I can draw and connect with a sort of collective memory or history that we as humans share. In doing so, I am able to reinterpret and represent my surroundings in a way that might surprise or connect with my viewers on a variety of cognitive, emotional, and spiritual levels. Thus it is no surprise that nature and my environment play a huge role in my life, art, and experiences. The issue of uncertainty began to complement my aesthetic and philosophical sensibilities as well. My work already dealt with attempting to grasp the indescribable and this endeavor resulted in work rooted in concepts concerning futility, perception, nature, loss, ubiquity, and sincerity. In my recent projects, I have begun engaging the community at large and I have been exploring many issues such as: the divide between public and private spheres of art making and viewing; art as experience; and art that inclusive, informative, and approachable for non artists. “

Ragona’s critical and creative work focuses on sound design, film theory and new media practice and reception. By forging approaches from the disciplines of film studies, art history, and new media technologies, her work has sought to present a more complex aesthetic, theoretical, and historical foundation for the analysis of contemporary time-based arts. Her current book project, Readymade Sound: Andy Warhol’s Recording Aesthetics examines Warhol’s tape recording projects from the mid-sixties until the late 70s in light of audio experiments in modern art as well as contemporary practices of pattern matching and information visualization. Her essays that explore the nexus between sound and image in the films of Hollis Frampton and Paul Sharits have been published, respectively, in the MIT Press Journal, October and a forthcoming anthology, Lowering the Boom: New Essays on the Theory and History of Film Sound (Illinois University Press, 2008). In “Swing and Sway: Marie Menken’s Cinematic Events,” Women Experimental Filmmakers, ed. Robin Blaetz, Duke University Press (2007), she examines how Warhol Superstar and artist, Marie Menken used film as a way to rethink the transition from abstract expressionism to Pop Art in the 1950s and 1960s.

Mary Weidner is a figurative painter, whose recent work has often focused on the complex dynamics of society¹s most fundamental unit, the family. While sociologists may analyze the changing nature of family, and politicians expound upon family values, Weidner¹s paintings, drawings and mixed-media installations examine the shared histories, intimacies and layers of emotion, which form our understanding of this uniquely personal and yet inherently universal experience. Weidner¹s work has been shown in New York at the Katharina Rich-Perlow, George Billis, Henry Street Settlement and A.I.R. galleries; in Chicago at the Esther Saks and Deson-Saunders galleries; in Los Angeles at the Koslow-Rayl Gallery; and in other cities throughout the U.S. including: Washington, Indianapolis, St. Louis, New Orleans, Las Vegas and San Diego. Internationally, Weidner has received travel grants to study in Spain, Mexico, Italy and Central America, and has participated in exhibitions and residencies at the Museo Hosio in Italy; the Poznan Academy of Fine Arts in Poland; and at the Nagoya-Zokei College of Art and Design and Aichi Prefectural Museum in Japan. She has lectured widely, most recently: “Performing Feminist Motherhood: Outlaw Mothers in Music, Media, Arts and Cultural Expression,” in New York. Both the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts and the Heinz Foundation have awarded her grants. Professor Weidner teaches drawing and painting courses at all levels, holds the College of Fine Arts Henry Hornbostle Award for Teaching, and is currently Chair of the Drawing, Painting, Printmedia and Photography Area in the School of Art at Carnegie Mellon. Washington University in St. Louis granted Ms. Weidner a Milliken Traveling Fellowship to Mexico, and BFA and MFA degrees. weidner<img src="/images/at.gif">andrew.cmu.edu

Charlee Brodsky, a documentary photographer and a professor of photography at Carnegie Mellon University, describes her work as dealing with social issues and beauty. Her most recent book, Street, is a collection of her photographs and Jim Daniels' poems, published by Bottom Dog Press in 2005. In 2003, the University of Pittsburgh Press published Knowing Stephanie, a book about Stephanie Byram's life with breast cancer featuring her photographs. This book was one of only eight books accepted in the illustrated book category of the American Association of University Presses' outstanding books of 2004 exhibition. In addition, in 2002 Brodsky received a regional Emmy with three others for her work on Stephanie, a documentary video. Amongst other projects, Brodsky photographed the former steel town of Homestead, Pennsylvania. With anthropologist Judith Modell, this project resulted in the book, A Town Without Steel, Envisioning Homestead, published by the University of Pittsburgh Press in 1998, as well as numerous exhibitions. Brodsky has also curated exhibitions dealing with the history of photography in Western Pennsylvania. This work culminated in "Pittsburgh Revealed" curated with Linda Benedict-Jones, a major exhibition at the Carnegie Museum of Art in 1997, accompanied by the book of the same name. Brodsky exhibits her work nationally and regionally, has been honored with Pennsylvania Arts Fellowships and other awards, and often works with writers. She is presently working on a number of projects; one with Sally Stewart, a poet, about Sally's extreme weight-loss through gastric by-pass surgery; another with painter Robert Qualters' featuring her photographs of Bob, a 71 year old artist, and his reworking of her photographs; a project of narratives and photographs about mental illness with writer Roberta Mintz Levine; a project photographing a group of girls over a span of ten years from age 10 to 20; and, she continues to photograph Homestead, working with poets Jane McCafferty and Jim Daniels, as this Western Pennsylvania community evolves from its steel mill past to a town with a mall where blast furnaces once stood. </body> cb12@andrew.cmu.edu

Roger B. Dannenberg is a pioneer in the field of computer music. His current work includes research on interactive music systems, content-based music retrieval, interactive media, and high-level languages for sound synthesis. His research on computer accompaniment led to a patent and eventually to the development of a commercial product, SmartMusic, in use by over 75,000 music students around the world. He has published over 100 research articles in books, journals, and conference proceedings. Dannenberg also held a patent for large-scale interactive games activated by crowd noise. The company, â€œStadium Games, Ltd.â€ was based on this work and entertained crowds of 60,000 football fans on a regular basis in Pittsburgh and Buffalo. In 2006, he completed an installation, “Origin, Location, Direction,” with Barbara Bernstein. This sound and image installation explores the dependent relationships between the observer and the observed using multi-channel audio and video projections that are activated by microphones set up in the gallery space. Dr. Dannenberg is also an active trumpet player and composer. He has performed in concert halls ranging from the historic Apollo Theater in Harlem to the modern Espace de Projection at IRCAM in Paris. His most recent musical efforts involve real-time computer graphics and computer music systems that interact with live musicians. Dannenberg also performs regularly with the Roger Humphries Big Band and the Capgun Quartet in Pittsburgh. dannenberg@cs.cmu.edu

Adam Davies is an artist and educator whose work is deeply linked to the history of photography, particularly the exploration of landscape—examining the dynamic relationship between the natural and manmade environment. Adam graduated with a Masters of Fine Arts from Carnegie Mellon University in 2005. Previously, in 2000, he explored philosophical and theoretical perspectives of art education while obtaining a Masters of Education at Harvard University. He currently is a professor in photography, painting and design at Carnegie Mellon University and Robert Morris University in Pittsburgh. Adam recently received a 2008 fellowship from the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, won the Juror’s Prize for the Onward ‘08 exhibition at Project Basho Photography Center in Philadelphia, and received the Vira I. Heinz Endowment Fellowship for the Artist Residency at the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts. In 2007, he was a Finalist in the Silver Eye Center for Photography’s Fellowship Competition in Pittsburgh, Teaching Artist for the National Gallery of Art in Eashington, Resident Artist at Jentel Artist Residency in Wyoming and participated as a panelist in the Direct Dialogues Lecture Series at the Center for Emerging Visual Artists in Philadelphia. Adam’s work has been published in Gerhard Stromberg’s Sleep of Reason, and in Doubletake Magazine, New American Paintings and Chicago Art Journal. My work is deeply influenced by history, particularly the role of memory and the construction of the identity of a place over time. I am interested in how one can uncover the passage of time by exploring traces of human presence within natural surroundings. Over the past three years, I have been working on a series of photographs concerning the relationship between the natural and man-made environment, and my images document the fragments of human interaction with the natural world. As I wander through familiar and unfamiliar landscapes, I find that I am drawn to the overlooked and hidden places—backyards, dead ends, abandoned spaces. I find these in-between spaces rich with details to document. Through photography, I seek to reflect upon and understand the history of places, recalling the passage of human presence in a landscape. adavies@andrew.cmu.edu

Through my practice I investigate places. While a real estate appraisal is based on the ability to determine similarities between multiple parcels, my interest is in exploiting the specificity of a place through an investigation of the present as well as the past. The research I carry out during the development of a project traverses multiple disciplines. Musical instruments derived from hunting bows, early scientific devices, fire towers, the Boy Scout Handbook, cartography practices, and avalanche rescue schemes have all informed a single work and establish a way of using metaphor to investigate place. The decision to situate my work in accessible places is an attempt to explore how we differentiate familiar, everyday environments. Throughout much of the country it is not uncommon to see weed-filled parking lots framing abandoned shopping malls. These vacuous lots serve as a persistent reminder of the loss associated with relocating populations. While admiration for the role of an impartial observer remains problematic the novelty of seventeenth century experiments, which once demonstrated that bird, mice, eels, snails, and flies were unable to survive in a vacuum chamber, is gone. In a century that has been distinguished by increasingly devastating disasters, rapidly disappearing sea ice, and the acute consequences of war, stillness is less momentous. My practice exists in the interval between the processes of observation and repair, in an attempt to investigate change. Image credit: AN INTERLUDE TO STILLNESS, video stills 2007

A great deal of our time, energy, and resources are spent in the pursuit of objects of desire – be they material items, like a new car, or immaterial ones, like a sense of purpose. My work is an investigation of desire and the means by which people attempt to attain the objects of their longing. Most recently, I have focused on the issue of how we relate to what is commonly considered “nature”. I am particularly interested in the contrasting set of desires that we often expect the “natural,” or non-human, world to fulfill. For various reasons, many people look to nature to find a sense of meaning in their lives. At the same time, it is also a source of valuable resources and materials. In technologically developed societies like ours, which have gained a great deal of mastery over their environment, nature provides the fodder for two contrasting fantasies: further domination over the earth, and making contact with the pure, unspoiled origins of our existence. Hence, we have activities like nature tourism, in which mass numbers of people travel in their cars to what they believe to be a more pure or unspoiled environment than their daily surroundings. I am also interested in the intersection between organic and man-made forms and how these two things intertwine now, and what the intersection may look like in the future. For example, a great deal of the way our geographical landscape looks comes from our patterns of consumption- new highways are constructed, hills are flattened to install a new housing development. Is nature simply the stuff that is left in between our projects? When is it more than that? What will our ideal picture of nature look like in the future? In my artistic practice, I strive to create sculptures and environments that operate in an in-between place – rather than attempt to assert a particular viewpoint, I hope to create opportunities for heightened perception of our daily predicament. Many of the materials I use are commonplace household items, such as Styrofoam or plastic packaging. I choose these materials not only because of their status as a by-product of an industrialized culture, but also because their sheer ubiquity lends itself to addressing an experience of our environment that is not exceptional, but practiced on a mass scale. A sense of living vicariously seems to be a hallmark of life in contemporary society. It is this sense that fuels our constant pursuit of our desires. In my work, I am driven to investigate this ongoing chase and to question where it might lead us. Image credit: Cloud, 2007. Recycled drink bottles, water, ultrasonic foggers, electrical components.

Ally Reeves’ work spans diverse fields, taking a heuristic, human-centered approach to art, teaching. and design. Reeves’ works are heterogeneous, ranging from museum exhibition and display, to urban planning and community organizing. Raised in Etowah, TN a one-stop light town at the foot of the Smokey mountains, Reeves’ approach to design reflects multi facet origins: her process and methodology instilled by an MFA from Carnegie Mellon University is mingled with the DIY ingenuity born of small towns, and nestled anew in an urban, academic setting. Reeves is inspired by three key motivations: to enable, to educate, and to empower.

My interdisciplinary media art installations look to the intersection between natural and technological systems. Integration of the organic and electro-mechanical elements asserts a confluence and co-evolution between living and evolving technological material. I am fascinated and encouraged with human kinds struggle to evolve technological systems that move toward intelligence and autonomy which are modeled from our current conceptions of the natural. My art works are influenced by theories on living systems, artificial life, interspecies communication and the underlying beauty and pattern inherent in the nature and organization of matter, energy, and information. While I find hope and fascination with our techno-cultural evolution, many of my works express concern for ecological issues, which are often not considered within the realm of technological and cultural progress. I have chosen interactive art in particular because it encourages active, self determined relationships with a work of art and points to a co-evolved coupling between human, machine, nature and culture. The branching and joining of physical forms in my work echoes the behavioral flow and multiple directions an interactive piece may take in the act of self-organizing. I am compelled by open structures that define form but do not close the form off to the viewer. I use exposed electronics and mechanics as part of the aesthetic in proposing structural relationships between wire, circuits and natural structures. I believe it is imperative that technological systems acknowledge and model the evolved wisdom of natural living systems, so they will inherently fuse, to permit an emergent and interdependent earth. Symbio – technoetic can describe this philosophy.

PITTSBURGH—Hilary Robinson, formerly head of the School of Art and Design at the University of Ulster, was appointed Dean of the College of Fine Arts at Carnegie Mellon University, in 2005. She succeeds Martin Prekop, who after leading the college for 12 years, rejoined the College of Fine Arts faculty in 2006. Robinson has been a member of the University of Ulster faculty since 1992, when she took a post teaching the History and Theory of Art to studio fine art students. Appointed to direct the school’s research in 1998, she then became head of the school in 2002. Robinson led it to achieve the joint highest rating out of the 75 art and design institutions in the United Kingdom. “Hilary Robinson is very passionate about the role of the arts in society,” said Mark Kamlet, provost of Carnegie Mellon. “She has done a wonderful job building relationships abroad and throughout the United States. We have great confidence she will lead the college in an exciting new direction in its centennial year, following the legacy of Martin Prekop.” Trained as a painter in the 1970s, Robinson spent many years working as an artist and as afreelance arts administrator, critic and lecturer. Her past employment includes gallery work at the Whitechapel Art Gallery in London and at the Third Eye Centre in Glasgow, Scotland; research and development work for an Art in Public Places agency; and co-authoring “The Rough Guide to Venice.” In the 1980s she received her M.A. at the Royal College of Art, London, gaining the Allan Lane award for the Outstanding Contribution to Cultural Theory; and in the 1990s she earned her Ph.D. at the University of Leeds on the implications for art practices of the work of French philosopher Luce Irigaray. Robinson’s own research is in the field of contemporary art theory. Her first anthology was “Visibly Female” in 1987 (Camden Press); she published “Feminism-Art-Theory 1968-2000” (Blackwells) in 2001 and this year will see publication of the monograph, “Reading Art, Reading Irigaray: the Politics of Art by Women” (IB Tauris). She has published 16 refereed essays in edited collections and journals and delivered refereed conference papers and convened panels at more than 18 conferences, including the College Art Association (CAA), the American Society for Aesthetics and the Association of Art Historians. She has published widely in catalogues and in professional magazines. In the United Kindom, Robinson is a member of the Executive Committee for the Council for Higher Education in Art and Design, and of its research subcommittee; is on the Management Advisory Board for the Art Design Media-Higher Education Academy; is a member of the Visual Arts and Media panel for the Arts and Humanities Research Council; and is a member of the Advisory Group for the Cultural Industries Unit of the British Council. In the United States she has just finished her term of office on the Committee on Women in the Arts, College Art Association (CAA). Other committee work includes being a trustee of the Head Trust (a charity supporting art and design education) and chair of the Board of the Ormeau Baths Gallery (the leading contemporary art gallery in Northern Ireland). Through her research, her work with CAA and development-related activity for the University of Ulster, Robinson has built a strong network of colleagues in the states. Robinson is married to artist Alastair MacLennan and currently lives with him in Belfast. The College of Fine Arts is a community of nationally and internationally recognized artists and professionals organized into five schools, Architecture, Art, Design, Drama and Music, and their associated centers and programs.

Ann T Rosenthal brings to the art community 20 years of experience as an environmental artist and arts activist. Her site and gallery-based installations juxtapose found objects, traditional media, and digital imaging to complicate the social and natural histories of “place.” Informed by diverse interdisciplinary discourses, including post-colonial and gender studies, environmental history, and social and deep ecology, she interrogates how our social constructions of “nature” have compromised human and non-human systems. Her work is situated within the emerging field of “ecoart,” which encompasses critical interventions and interpretations of the nature/culture boundary. She is committed to growing this hybrid discipline and welcomes opportunities to teach, lecture, publish, and exhibit her work. arosenth@andrew.cmu.edu

Schachter has published a number of methodological and theoretical articles on life histories, visual anthropology, and kinship, with a focus on adoption. Her work has concentrated on analyses of families in crisis, including economic collapse, disruptions of kinship patterns, and loss of political and cultural autonomy. In recent articles, she has explored the interconnections between individual lives and historical processes. Schachter does extensive research in Hawai’i, and her next book will be a cultural-historical portrait of an Hawaiian family that will also tell the story of Hawaii during the past century. Upon completion of that book, she will begin an inquiry into the origins and impact of sovereignty movements, with Hawaii as her prime case.

Christopher Sperandio is an artist, writer and producer working in a number of distributed media forms including television and comic books. Sperandio has collaborated with British artist Simon Grennan since 1990. Confounding typical expectations and bridging cultural spheres, Grennan & Sperandio’s works are rooted in anecdotes of everyday experience. They are the co-authors of 15 comic books published in conjunction with a variety of museums, including London’s Institute of Contemporary Art and New York’s Museum of Modern Art, and publishers including Fantagraphics Books and DC Comics. As contributing artists at WIRED Magazine, they drew the cover of the May ‘01 issue. They often work under the ironic identity of the Kartoon Kings, online at <a href="http://www.kartoonkings.com">http://www.kartoonkings.com</a>. Part of the stable of artists based around American Fine Arts, the New York gallery of Colin De Land, Grennan and Sperandio had two solo exhibitions there in the mid-1990s. Roberta Smith, in the New York Times, wrote “Grennan and Sperandio tweak our notions of what art is, and who it is for.” Joshua Decter wrote in Flash Art that the work of Grennan and Sperandio “Intelligently screws with the cultural authority.” Recent television projects include ARTSTAR, the first unscripted TV series to be set in the New York art world and several animated TV pilots for MTV.
