SUMMARY:CANCELLED - Lecture: Johanna Grawunder
DESCRIPTION:CANCELLATION NOTICE: As a precautionary measure\, we have made the decision to cancel the Johanna Grawunder lecture scheduled for March 12. We do not feel it is safe to ask Johanna to travel to Michigan at this time due to the many uncertainties presented by the coronavirus (COVID-19). The health and safety of our guests\, students\, and staff always come first\, and we hope to be able to welcome her to campus at a future date. \nEach year\, through the generosity of an endowment from Knoll International\, the Knoll Lecture Series at Cranbrook Academy of Art brings a renowned designer to campus for a free public lecture to promote the importance of design and build discussions with the Academy students. \nThis year\, Johanna Grawunder will deliver the lecture\, “CONCEPT”. Every project has a story. Whether a large-scale lighting installation\, a unique art-design custom commission or a mass-produced product\, the story we choose the tell is the driver of the design. Sometimes the story is a direct programmatic request or user-centered objective but for my work\, the main story is CONCEPT.  \nConcepts can develop from external interests- “pay attention to what you pay attention to”- as well as project-specific inspirations. They are a self-imposed framework around which my work is developed\, decisions are made and explained\, use of resources is justified (sometimes). Conceptual design is an abstract and idiosyncratic process expressed in everything from materials and color to the title of a thing.  \n  \nDesigner/artist Johanna Grawunder works on a broad range of projects\, including large-scale public lighting and color installations\, exhibition design\, architectural interventions and interiors\, and limited-edition furniture and light collections. Recent projects include a new Light Art collection for Carpenters Workshop Gallery\,  the personal exhibition “Alone Together” for Assab One in Milan\, exhibition design of the show “Van Cleef & Arpels: Time\, Nature\, Love” in Palazzo Reale Milano\, and “Coding”\, an immersive light installation recently completed for San Francisco International Airport\, and part of the permanent collection of the City and County of San Francisco.  \nTrained as an architect\, she was drawn to the medium of light early on and has tried to incorporate architectural principles and scale\, non-precious building materials and high technology light research into her designs.  \n Her work is included in many museum permanent collections\, including the High Museum Atlanta\, LACMA\, CNAP\, SFMOMA\, The Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston\, Art Institute Chicago\, Denver Art Museum and Musée des Arts Décoratifs Paris.  \n With a degree in Architecture from California Polytechnic University San Luis Obispo\, she studied and worked with Gianni Pettena and Cristiano Toraldo di Francia of Superstudio in Florence (1984-1985) then moved to Milan to work with Sottsass Associati (1985-2001)\, becoming a partner in 1989. At Sottsass Associati she was involved primarily with architecture and interiors\, co-designing with Ettore Sottsass\, many of the firm’s most prestigious projects.  In 2001 she opened her own design studio in San Francisco and Milan.  \n  \nSponsored by Knoll Lecture in Design. \n All lectures are free and held in deSalle Auditorium at Cranbrook Art Museum.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Paula Wilson
DESCRIPTION:Lecture Title: Mooning  \nPaula Wilson will discuss her multimedia practice that intermixes layered collage\, installation\, video\, painting\, and printmaking. Her subject matter is equally multifaceted. Drawing her inspiration from cultural and natural histories\, she reimages and reconstructs her worldview as a biracial Black woman. Her work often burst from the wall or frame\, a constant re-assembly of lived experiences: black and white\, urban and rural\, traditional and contemporary\, singular and collective. Wilson will also speak about her relocation in 2007 from New York City to the high desert town of Carrizozo\, New Mexico (population 996) where she co-runs the artist-founded organization MoMAZoZo and the Carrizozo Artist in Residency.  \n  \nVisual Artist Paula Wilson was born in Chicago\, Illinois\, and is currently based in Carrizozo\, New Mexico. Wilson’s most recent solo exhibitions were Entangled\, at 516 Arts\, Albuquerque\, NM (2019)\, The Light Becomes You\, at Denny Dimin Gallery\, New York\, NY (2018)\, and Spread Wild\, Pleasures of the Yucca\, at Smack Mellon\, Brooklyn\, NY (2018). She has been featured in publications such as Hyperallergic\, Artforum\, The New York Times\, and The New Yorker. Wilson’s artwork is in many collections including\, The Studio Museum in Harlem\, the New York Public Library\, Yale University\, and Saatchi Gallery. She holds a Master of Fine Art from Columbia University.  \n  \nSponsored by the Print Media Department  \n All lectures are free and held in deSalle Auditorium at Cranbrook Art Museum.  \n

SUMMARY:Lecture: Katja Prins
DESCRIPTION:Lecture Title: Brave New World \nKatja Prins will discuss her practice as a jewelry artist\, which has evolved over the last 22 years. This lecture will focus in particular on her fascination with the relationship between technology and the human body. Specifically engaged with how technology functions as our support structure\, she is both anxious and excited about the simultaneously healing-protective and toxic-destructive properties of technology. This ambivalent fascination provides her with imagery that is reflected through her work. \nKatja Prins (Haarlem\, NL\, 1970) graduated at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in 1997 and has been working as an independent jewelry artist ever since. She has had solo and group exhibitions in Europe\, USA\, Asia and Russia. \nShe has also lectured and taught at various institutions such as Hiko Minzuno College\, Tokyo\, JP\, Tainan National University of the Arts\, Tainan\, TW\, Savannah College of Art and Design\, Savannah\, USA\, RISD\, Providence\, USA\, University of Arts & Design Samara\, RU\, Konstfack\, Stockholm\, SE\, Alchimia\, Florence\, IT and the Gerrit Rietveld Academy\, Amsterdam\, NL. \nHer work can be found in public collections such as Cooper Hewitt Museum New York\, USA\, Museum of Arts and Design New York\, USA\, Rijksmuseum Amsterdam\, NL\, SM’s Stedelijk Museum ‘s Hertogenbosch\, NL\, Mint Museum of Craft & Design\, Charlotte\, USA\, CODA Museum Apeldoorn\, NL\, Museum Arnhem\, NL\, Musée des Beaux Arts\, Marseille\, France and the Schmuck Museum\, Pforzheim\, DE. \nIn 2009 she published her monography “The Uncanny Valley”\, which gives an overview of all her work. She’s been nominated for the Mari Funaki Award for Contemporary Jewelry 2016 and the Design Award Rotterdam 1999\, Museum Boymans-van Beuningen\, NL and won the Darling Publications Jeweller of the Year Award 2009. \n  \nSponsored by the Metalsmithing Department at Cranbrook Academy of Art.  \n  \nAll lectures are free and held in deSalle Auditorium at Cranbrook Art Museum.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Cas Holman
DESCRIPTION:Easy is Boring: Cas will present a few projects that exemplify her design philosophy and share insights from her voyage since arriving at Cranbrook. \nCas Holman has spent the last 15 years immersed in play\, education and imagination. Her philosophy and approach to designing for play was recently featured in the award-winning documentary series “Abstract: The Art of Design” on Netflix. Through her company Heroes Will Rise\, she designs and manufactures tools for the imagination. These materials are manipulable parts and pieces which inspire constructive play\, imaginative forms\, and cooperative interactions between people. Open-ended in their identity\, these tools/toys inspire children and adults to imagine the origin and story of the toy as well as how to use it. \nShe graduated from Cranbrook in 2005 and is now an Associate Professor at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) and prototypes her playthings on five acres known as Camp Fun. Cas travels the globe to collaborate with thought and industry leaders in early education\, curriculum design\, public space and childhood advocacy. Some recent inspiring brave collaborators and clients include Cheng Xueqin\, founder of Anji Play (Anji\, China)\, Friends of the High Line (NYC)\, the 14th St Y Preschool and Jewish Community Center (NYC)\, and Lego Education (DK). \nSponsored by the 3D Design Department at Cranbrook Academy of Art.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Shirley Tse
DESCRIPTION:From Plastic to Plasticity; From Multiplicity to Negotiation \n Shirley Tse will share the trajectory of her practice in the last 20 years that leads to her solo presentation “Stakeholders” at the Hong Kong Pavilion for this year’s Venice Biennale. She is the first woman to present a solo show in the Hong Kong Pavilion at the Biennale.  \n Tse has dedicated her practice to visualizing heterogeneity through sculpture\, installation\, photography\, and text.  From presenting differences on the same plane\, to integrating them into a whole through negotiation\, strategies are as various as putting competing aesthetics under the same roof\, examining the semiotics of plastics\, calling attention to the interstitial\, expanding the language of movement\, conflating scales\, destabilizing categories\, using found objects as suspension of subjectivity and researching concurrent narratives.  \n Tse received her Bachelor of Arts from the Chinese University of Hong Kong Fine Arts Department and her Master of Fine Arts degree from Art Center College of Art and Design.   \n Tse’s work has been exhibited worldwide at venues including the Pasadena Museum of California Art\, Pasadena\, California; Osage\, Kwun Tong\, Hong Kong; Kettle’s Yard\, Cambridge\, United Kingdom; ARCO Madrid\, Spain; The Museum of Contemporary Art\, Minsk\, Belarus; Herbert F. Johnson Museum of Art\, Cornell University\, Ithaca\, New York; Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts\, Kaohsiung\, Taiwan; Capp Street Project\, San Francisco\, California; Palazzo dell’Arengo\, Rimini\, Italy; The Art Gallery of Ontario\, Canada; The Biennale Ceara America\, Brazil; MoMA P.S.1\, Long Island City\, New York; The New Museum\, New York; The Biennale of Sydney\, Australia; Institute of Contemporary Art\, Boston\, Massachusetts; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art\, California; TENT\, Centrum Beeldende Kunst\, Rotterdam\, Netherlands; Para Site\, Hong Kong; Govett-Brewster Art Gallery\, New Plymouth\, New Zealand; and many others.  \n  \nSponsored by the Sculpture Department at Cranbrook Academy of Art.  \nAll lectures are free and held in deSalle Auditorium at Cranbrook Art Museum.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Tsz Yan Ng
DESCRIPTION:Lecture Title: Externalities\, of influence and effects  \nNg will discuss recent works in material-based research in the area of Research & Development for concrete and textile innovation. The projects highlight manufacturing processes and designs that leverage contemporary fabrication technology for architecture and related design disciplines. Intrinsic to these works are issues of crafting\, of machine and human labor\, as well as socio-economic/cultural and environmental contingencies that contribute to their production.  \n Tsz Yan Ng is an Assistant Professor at Taubman College\, University of Michigan. Her material-based research and design primarily focus on experimental concrete forming (hard) and textile manipulation (soft)\, oftentimes in direct exchange and incorporating contemporary technologies to develop novel designs for building and manufacturing. A common thread to her work investigates questions of labor in various facets and forms – underscoring broader issues of industrial manufacturing innovation\, of human labor\, crafting\, and aesthetics. She’s the principal of an independent architecture and art practice with built works in the US and China. Her practice\, collaborative in nature and interdisciplinary in scope\, ranges in scale from textile manufacturing facilities to commercial retail interiors and installations. Ng joined Taubman College as the Walter B. Sanders Fellow (2007-08) and was also the Reyner Banham Fellow at the University of Buffalo from 2001-2002.  \nVisit Tsz Yan Ng’s website here. \n  \nSponsored by the 3D Design Department at Cranbrook Academy of Art.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Lucy McRae
DESCRIPTION:Lucy McRae – Body Architect  \nLucy McRae is a science fiction artist\, filmmaker\, inventor and body architect. Her work speculates on the future of human existence by exploring the limits of the body\, beauty\, biotechnology and the self. McRae works across installation\, film\, photography\, artificial intelligence and edible technology. She is regarded as a thought leader who is exploring the cultural and emotional impacts science and cutting edge technology have on redesigning the body. Lucy uses art as a mechanism to signal and provoke our ideologies and ethics about who we are and where we are headed.  \n McRae has exhibited at museums\, film festivals\, institutes such as MIT\, Ars Electronica and NASA and science forums across the world. Selected major artworks have been exhibited at Science Museum London\, Centre Pompidou and the Venice Biennale. She is a visiting professor at SCI_Arc in Los Angeles; and is recognised as a Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum. McRae encourages scientific conversation and has spoken at TED\, Royal Albert Hall\, Cannes Lion and Tribeca Film Festival. She is regarded as a pioneer who blurs the boundaries across art\, architecture\, design\, and technology with a healthy disregard for labels that limit interdisciplinary practice.  \n  \n Sponsored by the Architecture Department at Cranbrook Academy of Art. \n All lectures are free and held in deSalle Auditorium at Cranbrook Art Museum.
