ARTIST BIO

Janet Taylor Pickett (b. 1948) received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan School of Art in 1970, and her Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan School of Architecture and Design in 1972. Devel-oping a groundbreaking visual vocabulary to probe themes of Blackness, identity, and the complexity of lived experience, Taylor Pickett continued her studies at Parsons School of Design, the Fashion Institute of Technology, and The Vermont Studio School. She taught the History of African American Art at both Essex County College and Bloomfield College for over thirty years and has received grants and fellowships from The New Jersey Council of the Arts Grant, The Ford Foundation, and the Mid-Atlantic States Art Council. Her artist residencies have included the Pilchuck Glass School, Val- paraiso Foundation (Majorca, Spain), University of Eastern New Mexico, Visiting Artist Lecture Series at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and Lafayette College. A fore-runner in contemporary painting whose work has been compared to that of Romare Bearden and Jacob Lawrence, Taylor Pickett has had her work showcased in solo and group exhibitions nationally and internationally, as well as in private collections. Her masterwork, “And She Was Born” (2020) was featured on the cover of the exhibition catalog for Seeing Differently: The Phillips Collects for a New Century (2021) at The Phillips Collection in Washington D.C. Other selected exhibitions include Progressions: A Cultural Legacy at MoMA/PS1, African American Women Artists and the Power of their Gaze at the David C Driskell Center at the University of Maryland, The Matisse Series at the Montclair Art Museum, The Atlantic World-Layered Histories at the Harvard Art Museums, Hagar’s Dress at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Art, and Necessary Memories at Jennifer Baahng Gallery. Additionally, her work has been shown at The Studio Museum of Harlem in New York, Howard University, and Telfair University, among others. Taylor Pickett is also the former Chair of the African American Cultural Committee at the Montclair Art Museum in New Jersey. Janet Taylor Pickett is represented by Jennifer Baahng Gallery.

ZHANG HONGTU

Zhang Hongtu

ZHANG HONGTU

Zhang Hongtu was born in Pingliang, China, moved to New York City in 1982. He works in a variety of media, including painting, sculpture, collage, ceramics, digital imaging, and installations. From the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s, Zhang created paintings, sculpture and mixed media installations using the image of Mao Zedong to express his ideas about Communist China and the Culture Revolution (1966-1976). In the past decade, his works began to question the complex relationships between the traditions of old China and the West today, as seen in his large-format Shan Shui paintings, among other works. More recently, his works have focused on the relationship between nature and the human condition.

 

Zhang has exhibited extensively across the U.S. and abroad. Recent shows include Princeton University Art Museum; Museu Picasso in Barcelona, Spain; The Israel Museum, Jerusalem; The Metropolitan Museum of Art New York, Guggenheim Museum New York and a retrospective at Queens Museum in New York.

BRIAN DAILEY

Brian Dailey

American, b. 1951, Pittsburgh, California, based in the Washington D.C.

Brian Dailey’s work in a variety of mediums including photography, film, installations, and painting engages with the social, political, and cultural issues of our times. His life journey and its many peregrinations since launching his art career in Los Angeles in the 1970s have led him on a path of many surprising twists and turns, encapsulated in his creative vision as a self-described storyteller. Dailey’s art reflects his unconventional evolution as an artist and multifaceted life experiences, which include national level involvement in arms control and international security. The artist’s unusual experiences, which he approached with the same curiosity that has driven his art in diverse media, continue to provide a fertile source of inspiration in his unconventional creative practice such as the global video installation WORDS (2012-2018). Dailey has had solo exhibitions in Los Angeles, New York, Washington D.C., and Bulgaria and participated in a number of group shows in the United States, Europe, and Russia. His mid-career retrospective Declassified: Unraveling a Paradoxtook place at Bulgaria’s National Art Gallery in Sophia in 2014.

 

Education

Otis Art Institute, MFA, 1975

University of Southern California, PhD 1987 (Arms control, Russian studies, diplomatic history, dissertation on the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty)

Brian Dailey’s works are shown at The Rachel M. Schlesinger Arts Center, January 11 – February 8, 2019. Opening reception 5-7pm, January 23. The exhibition is organized The Rachel M. Schlesinger Arts Center in collaboration with the Department of Photography and Media of the Alexandria Campus of NOVA.
