Turner S. Bailey diary, 1863

Description

Bailey, of Epworth, Iowa, was mustered into the 3rd Iowa Infantry, Company A in June 1861. In 1863 the company was assigned to Memphis. They took an active part in the siege of Vicksburg, and were part of Sherman's expedition to drive Confederate troops out of Jackson, Miss. Bailey lost his arm as the result of injuries sustained at Champion Hill, and was discharged for his disability, receiving a gift of $152 from his comrades in gratitude for his service and sacrifice.

Title

TWN TWR (detail)

Description

Jim Shrosbree earned an MFA from the University of Montana. He has received grants from the Iowa Arts Council, the… Idaho Commission on Arts and Humanities/NEA and was awarded a National Endowment for the Arts (Midwest) Visual Artist's Fellowship. He is currently Associate Professor of Art at Maharishi University of Management in Fairfield, Iowa. His solo exhibitions include: I Space, Chicago; Revolution, Detroit and New York City; Southern Illinois University, Edwardsville; Carolyn Ruff Gallery, Minneapolis; William Traver Gallery, Seattle, and Ron Judish Fine Art, Denver. Jim Shrosbree has an upcoming solo exhibition at the Des Moines Art Center in the Fall of 2004
An excerpt from Jim Shrosbree's artist's statement: If something is perfect in the mind, then to bring it forth through the hand and the eye can extend that perfection into the reality of the visual world. The inside and the outside, however, do not truly exist as a duality and are not separate, but unified. It is out of this oneness that perfection arises. Perfection lies hidden between the artist and work and the work and the viewer. To invoke this value means giving up surrendering control over what one may be too comfortable with to reveal a deeper reality. Obviously, it is not realized exclusively through working. One comes to the process with what one is with a certain capacity for experience. Being curious about the world through creative work involves, essentially, an investigation into the nature of the Self, into consciousness and the structure of what one is made of: energy, pattern, intelligence and the connection with origin. Curiosity is a gift which is fulfilled through the ability to listen. Listening to the quietest messages focuses the attention at the moment a "thing" is manifested.

Title

Two Showgirls

Description

Born in the South, Burford came to Iowa to study with Grant Wood before World War II, then left to serve in the U.S. Air Force, and later returned to take his M.F.A. in Iowa City, where he settled down to capture his semi-remembered, semi-imagined world through paintings and prints and to teach decade after decade of grateful students.
If America holds a living counter-part of Frederico Fellini, it is Iowa's venerable visual artist Byron Burford. Both larger-than-life creators, ebullient bon vivants, observers of the human condition, and both deeply fascinated with the worlds of circuses, legendary entertainers, and jazz, these giant talents both captured the innocence, lyricism, gaudy diversity, and pathos of their generations before and after World War II.

Title

Two Trees = Five Doors

Description

Naomi Kark Schedl received her B.F.A and M.F.A. in Painting from School of Art at Yale University. Other post graduate work has been done at American University, University of Iowa, and Penland School of Art and Crafts. She is currently living in Iowa City, Iowa.
About her work, Naomi writes,"My paintings have moved from river landscapes to woodlands which now include figurative aspects. I am also interested in social comment. Encroaching Woodland [another piece] is a comment on the destruction of woodland for a development. I therefore used a strong diagonal line for the window in contrast to the movement of the foliage. Similarly, Two Trees = Five Doors is an ironic comment on cutting down trees. In both I have used the reality of photographs against the hand of the artist and the enjoyment of the painting process."

Two Weeks in Autumn

Description

Bennett received her BFA in printmaking from Indiana University and has exhibited and taught at various locations throughout the country. She is a resident of Iowa City, Iowa.
Astrid Bennett makes large-scale art quilts, using hand painting, monoprinting, screen printing, batik or immersion dyeing to create her compositions. She says,"I'm happiest with a brush in my hand, and art quilts allow me a large-scale, exuberant canvas. Although visually abstract, my work constantly mines the daily life experiences of family, society and the natural world, with a hefty dose of music to guide the hand."
