Haikus, Modernism and Stanton MacDonald-Wright

Exhibition

Stanton MacDonald-Wright’s “Haiga Portfolio” (1965-1966) blends Eastern and Western influences, pairing vibrant modernist paintings with haikus written by some of Japan’s most influential poets.
The term “haiga” refers to a style of Japanese painting by haiku poets, whose poems are known for their brevity and simplicity. Each of the ten prints that compose the “Haiga Portfolio” have a corresponding haiku.
The “Haiga Portfolio” exemplifies the 20th century modernist movement Synchromism, cofounded in 1913 by MacDonald-Wright and Morgan Russell. The movement sought to arrange color in the same way that sound is composed in music and is considered the first American avant-guard movement to be accepted internationally. Seventy-five years old at the time of the portfolio’s creation, MacDonald-Wright employed the use of energetic, swirling shapes coupled with dense, vivid colors orchestrated in the modernist style and the rhythm of Synchromism.

The exhibition includes work from members of the Seattle Camera Club, FSA (Farm Security Administration), f/64 (a group of 20th-century photographers known for precise exposures and depiction of natural forms) and contemporary photography portfolios such as American Roads (printed in 1981), The Museum Project (printed in 2015), and DEMARCATION (printed in 2018).

Gallery Walk with artist Pilar Pobil

Exhibition

Pilar Pobil is a well-known artist who was born in Spain at a time "when women were not encouraged to pursue their ambitions." She followed a more traditional path -- she got married, moved to the United States and had three children. When she was in her forties, she began to take her ambition seriously. She's self-taught in many mediums and currently resides in a beautiful, well-painted home in Salt Lake City. Pilar creates art from a place of feeling, using this to depict the reality she has lived.

Join Pilar at Utah State University's Merrill-Cazier Library for a walk around an exhibit featuring her work. She will discuss what each piece meant to her at the time of its creation. This event is free and open to the public.
