 Eye Adjustment: 1963-2020
卡尔·维尔逊（1939-2021）在芝加哥出生和长大，1957年进入艺术学院，后来成为该学院最有影响力的绘画老师之一，激励了一代又一代的学生。维尔逊于20世纪60年代初开始在芝加哥展出，当时他已经建立了一种个人风格，具有高调的色彩、对图案和近乎对称的形式的兴趣、与漫画漫画相关的人形风格化、喧闹的图像以及对视觉和语言双关语的持久热爱。他通过数十幅绘画作品，在细节丰富的素描本中，使图像得以存在，这些绘画作品本身往往令人惊叹。Wirsum对蓝调和R&B音乐的热爱，他在芝加哥的各个地方，包括Maxwell Street Market，都很喜欢，这在他的一些画作中得到了呼应，包括Howlin'Wolf、Junior Wells和Screamin'Jay Hawkins的肖像。1966年，策展人唐·鲍姆（Don Baum）与吉姆·纳特（Jim Nutt）、格拉迪斯·尼尔森（Gladys Nilsson）、阿特·格林（Art Green）、苏伦·罗卡（Suellen Rocca）和吉姆·法尔科内（Jim Falconer。这场由一群最终被称为意象派的艺术家组成的开幕式展览包括维尔苏姆的正面和中心，从那以后，他不朽的遗产一直与这个环境联系在一起，包括艺术学院2018年的标志性展览《谁是毛》？，它重新组合了海德公园艺术中心及其他地方的原始Hairy Who展览的作品。Born and raised in Chicago, Karl Wirsum (1939 – 2021), enrolled at the School of the Art Institute in 1957 and went on to be one of the institution’s most influential painting and drawing instructors, encouraging successive generations of students. Wirsum began exhibiting in Chicago during the early 1960s at which point he had established a personal style, with high key colors, an interest in patterns and near symmetrical forms, stylization of the human form related to comic book caricature, uproarious imagery, and an enduring love of visual and verbal puns. He coaxed images into existence through dozens of drawings, often marvels in their own right, in richly detailed sketch books. Wirsum’s great love of blues and R&B music, which he enjoyed at various Chicago haunts including Maxwell Street Market, is echoed in some of his paintings, including his portraits of Howlin’ Wolf, Junior Wells, and Screamin’ Jay Hawkins. In 1966, the curator Don Baum included Wirsum in an exhibition by a group calling itself the Hairy Who (a name that derived from a comment made by Wirsum), alongside Jim Nutt, Gladys Nilsson, Art Green, Suellen Rocca, and Jim Falconer. This inaugural show by a cadre of artists who would eventually be known as the Imagists included Wirsum front and center, and his enduring legacy has been tied to that milieu ever since, including the Art Institute’s landmark 2018 exhibitionHairy Who?, which reassembled work from the original Hairy Who exhibitions at the Hyde Park Art Center and beyond.©Karl Wirsum 排版：Culture菌 加入Culture Sower 艺术家会员
