University Library Art Gallery Opens Four Sculptors Exhibit
(Rohnert Park, CA) In celebration of Womens History Month, The
University Library Art Gallery at Sonoma State University, in
conjunction with the Womens Resource Center, presents Four Sculptors.
Work by four international women artists, Gigi Janchang of Taiwan,
Kyunghee Lee of South Korea, Jann Nunn of the United States, and Ulrike
Palmbach of Germany, will be on view at the Schulz Library Art Gallery
on the Sonoma State University campus March 5, 2004, through April 15, 2004.
Gigi Janchang has led an international life. Born in Shanghai, she
received her BA in painting from National Taiwan Normal University.
Before coming to the US, she studied independently in Paris, and since
receiving her MFA at San Francisco Art Institute she has studied under
Klaus Rinke at the Art Academy of Dusseldorf. She has been awarded a
National Endowment for the Arts travel grant, has had solo shows in
Goteborg, Sweden, Dusseldorf, Germany and several in San Francisco. Gigi
Janchang is exhibiting a 35 foot-long photographic work, Come & Go
(1994), shown at the National Academy Gallery in Hangzhow, China.
Kyunghee Lee lives and works in Seoul, South Korea, where she is Dean of
Information & Media Design at Korea Digital University. She earned her
BFA and MFA degrees from Seoul National University and an additional MFA
from San Francisco State University. Lee has held solo exhibitions in
England, the United States and South Korea. In 2000 her work was
represented in the Kwangju Biennale and Media City, Seoul Subway
Project. Lee has several on-going web projects many of which deal with
the 50-year separation of Koreans divided by the 38 parallel.
Subsequently, much of her work investigates ways in which individuals
are defined by patterns of social structures and geographic locations.
Kyunghee Lee will exhibit Another Constellation at the Schulz Gallery.
Jann Nunn's multi-faceted work takes the form of sculpture, sculptural
installation, performance, and occasionally photography, painting, or
video. Informed by her feminist perspective, the work is often social or
political in nature. Born into a military family, Jann Nunn has lived,
traveled, exhibited, and held residencies nationally and abroad. She has
a BFA degree from University of Alaska, Anchorage, studied at Skowhegan
School of Painting and Sculpture in Maine and earned an MFA from San
Francisco Art Institute. She has had solo shows in England, Germany, and
the United States. Nunn is creating Resurrection, a sculptural
installation, to commemorate the 10-year passing of her brother, Bill,
to AIDS. Jann Nunn is Professor of Sculpture at Sonoma State University.
Ulrike Palmbach transforms humble materials into sculptural effigies of
daily life. Felted army blankets become phones or radiators whose
simplicity suggests a futile futurism. By portraying a semblance of
useful objects she redoubles the irony of pragmatic means to contrary
ends. Born in Sindelfingen, Germany, Palmbach has studied art in
Florence, Italy, Stuttgart and Berlin, Germany, and San Francisco,
California. Courtesy of Stephen Wirtz Gallery, Palmbach is presenting
Pants a 7 foot-tall suspended woven twine sculpture.
This exhibit is sponsored by the University Library, SSU Womens
Resource Center, the InterCultural Center, and the Associated Students.
The public is invited to attend the reception on Friday, March 5,
5:30-7:30 pm. Gallery hours are Monday - Saturday 10 am- 5 pm.
