Julianne Swartz's work trades in the rough interface between body and building, interior and exterior, public displays and private activities, transcendence and abjection, containment and leakage: these seeming opposites exist in an uneasy, evocative alignment in her work, informing and transforming one another. Power resides in what you can't see or touch. Human frailty and our irrational impulses, the body and its sensorial extensions - the probing eye and the disembodied voice - are set loose to subversive, often poignant ends. In this new body of work, lightness and weight define and defy each other. Gravity-a body’s attraction towards the center of the earth- is the filament running through all the works. Some of the works push the limits of physical gravity very literally, and other works explore gravity metaphorically, as they refer to the limitations, fragility and endurance of the body, and the weight of human relationships. A sound element runs through many of the works. Verbal and nonverbal utterances, beats, pulses, staccato rhythms and tones of varying pitches populate the exhibition. Surrogate (JS), Surrogate (KRL), and Surrogate (ARL) are three figures, made of various configurations of cement blocks, standing together. The cast blocks vary from white to dark grey, some beaten and rough, some sparkling with mica. Each figure is built in the dimensions of one of the artist’s immediate family members: herself, her husband, and their young daughter. Scores of clocks nested inside the blocks give a pulse to the figures. The relentless ticking invokes an acute sense of time passing. A series of sculptures, Stability Studies, seek the far edge of precariousness. Spare constructions built with weights, wire, thread, magnets and ordinary objects, vehemently pursue balance and barely attain it. In Stability Study (table), The weight of a rock allows an unbalanced table to stand as it elevates a quivering wire. In another sculpture, Lean, a steel rod defies reason as it leans towards a wall but doesn’t touch it. Composition for a Thin Membrane is an anthropomorphic translucent screen with transducers and wires fixed within it. The whole surface resonates with sounds that transverse a space between inside and outside the body such as pre-verbal utterances. Alma’s Blanket is a sound tapestry based in size and weave on an actual baby blanket. In this woven grid of colored electrical wires and tiny speakers, parallel voices lull with bits of song, whisper comforts and soothe fears. With gravity and lightness, Swartz places equal importance upon negative space, ambient sound, interruptions of sculptural line, and the interface between outside and inside. Her work encourages a quizzical reconsideration of our relationship to our body, to each other and to our surroundings. Julianne Swartz has exhibited internationally, including at Tate Liverpool, PS1/MoMA, the SculptureCenter, the New Museum of Contemporary Art, the Jewish Museum, the Indianapolis Museum of Art, Colby College Museum of Art, the Tang Museum, Skidmore College, and the 2004 Whitney Biennial at the Whitney Museum of American Art, NY. Current exhibitions include, Digital Empathy, a public project at the High Line, New York, Miracle Report at the Arizona State University Art Museum, And Good Night at the Israel Museum, Jerusalem. This summer her work will be included in Watch Your Step at the Flag Foundation, New York. Julianne Swartz: How Deep is Your, a survey exhibition at the deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum, Massachusetts, will open in the fall of 2012 and will travel to the Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art, Scottsdale, AZ. A full color monograph will accompany this exhibition.     23`aњ . 2 3 x {  Э ф V[ЇЪŸ­ƒЋьеЪГŸЪ•Ъ•‡•Ъ•z•Ъ•‡•m•Ъ•Ъ•Ъ•e^ hЯxhЈ1hЈ1OJQJh—@§hЈ1CJOJQJhИ|hЈ1CJOJQJhSќhЈ16CJOJQJhЈ1CJOJQJ'hЈ1B*CJOJPJQJ^JaJphџ-hЈ16B*CJOJPJQJ]^JaJphџhЈ16CJOJQJ-hЈ15B*CJOJPJQJ\^JaJphџ%hЈ15B*OJPJQJ\^Jphџ234ЖЗљ њ є ѕ ‚ƒЊыыырыыиаННННННННЌ„0§„0§ЄЄ]„0§^„0§gdЈ1$„0§„0§Є1$]„0§^„0§a$gdЈ1$Є1$a$$Є1$a$ $Є1$a$gdЈ1$ ЦЄ1$7$8$H$a$gdЈ1/@ўўЊЋ/124578:;<=>?@Aыычхчхчхчхрхрххы$a$Є$„0§„0§ЄЄ]„0§^„0§a$gdЈ1"Q_šхє9./0235689;<=>@AэцоцоцоцэцЯЧУЧУЧУЧУЏУЏУЯ&hЈ1B*OJPJQJmHnHphџuhЈ1jhЈ1UhЈ1OJPJQJmHnHuhЯxhЈ16 hЯxhЈ1$hЯxhЈ10J6B*OJQJphџ":pЈ1Аа/ Ар=!А"А#М$ %АЅZ@ёџZ NormalЄШ-B*CJOJPJQJ_HaJmH phsH tH DA@ђџЁD Default Paragraph FontViѓџГV ­0 Table Normal :V і4ж4ж laі (kєџС( 0No List XўOёџђX Free FormЄШ%B*OJPJQJ_HmH phsH tH ^^@ёџ^ Normal (Web)ЄШ%B*OJPJQJ_HmH phsH tH HўOђџёџH Emphasis A56CJOJPJQJphA џџџџ!џџ z™A234ЖЗљњєѕ‚ ƒ Њ Ћ /;<=>B˜0€€€ Н€˜0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ ͘0€€€ НŠp‚\‚џП”џП€ˆp‚\‚џП•˜0€€€№М€џџџџ8џП• A ЊA @ /BŠŽ/B:.Bџ@€p‚жdnAP @џџUnknownџџџџџџџџџџџџGTimes New Roman5€Symbol3 Arial;Helvetica7я K@ŸCambriaCNџрџџЧz в0щ0Ў0Ю0в‰Д0 Pro W33TimesCЅdПџЅ„ПџЅрLucida Grande#СˆаhбЂЇЕšGЊšG 3‹ Eђ щ€>g7J#Qџ§ёџ?'џџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџЙR џџGravity josee bienvenuJosee Bienvenuўџ р…ŸђљOhЋ‘+'Гй0|˜ЌИамь  , 8 D P\dlt' Gravity .2josee bienvenueNormalJosee Bienvenue10mMicrosoft Word 11.2@д­є@,ќЎ)NЭ@ОхЁЭ@.`8+NЭ3‹ ўџ еЭеœ.“—+,љЎ0№ hp|„Œ” œЄЌД М б'xg  Gravity Title ўџџџўџџџ ўџџџ"#$%&'(ўџџџ§џџџ+ўџџџўџџџўџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџRoot Entryџџџџџџџџ РF€П NЭ-€1TableџџџџџџџџWordDocumentџџџџџџџџ$ SummaryInformation(џџџџDocumentSummaryInformation8џџџџџџџџџџџџ!CompObjџџџџџџџџџџџџXџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџўџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџџўџџџџџ РFMicrosoft Word DocumentўџџџNB6WWord.Document.8
