  • Two of a Kind: Abelardo Morell and Anthony Fisher

  • Description: Two of a Kind: Abelardo Morell and Anthony Fisher Exhibition Dates: February 2 - March 10, 2022 OPENING RECEPTION: AHA! Night, Thursday February 10, 6-8 pm | Artist Talk: 6:30 pm CLOSING RECEPTION: AHA! Night, Thursday, March 10, 6-8 pm Reserve your free ticket for the opening and closing: umassdartmouthgalleries.eventbrite.com Facebook + Instagram @ UMassDartmouthGalleries For additional information, please go to: umassd.edu/cvpa/galleries Contact: Viera Levitt, Gallery Director and Exhibition Curator The UMass Dartmouth University Art Gallery at Star Store Campus, Downtown New Bedford has the pleasure to invite you to the exhibition titled, Two of a Kind, featuring large scale photographs of paint by Abelardo Morell in conversation with paintings by Anthony Fisher. This exhibition presents two creative approaches that focus on the abstract image- Abelardo Morell's incredibly lush and sensual photographs of fresh paint frozen in time with the help of light, fast exposure and flash, and Anthony Fisher's ingeniously captured lines and shapes featured on layered, monochromatic abstract paintings. Both Morell and Fisher share a restless urgency to invent novel ways to play with traditional media, subjects, and methods. In their respective studios in the same creative community just outside of Boston, each pours their unique experimentation into their own patient and carefully crafted process. Results sometimes arrive as wonderful surprises transformed into bold work that the visitor can almost enter - inspiring, open minded, and deeply creative. Abelardo Morell admires Anthony's work because he, "like me, thinks a lot about how a picture is made. Subject matter for him is, of course, important, but it is within his working process that the subject emerges. Anthony has used all sorts of devices to make marks on the canvas - perhaps to get his ego out of the way a bit." Anthony Fisher's studio process involves quirky and lumbering invented tools, physical struggle, gravity, chemistry, and physics to allow hundreds of marks to be thrown onto a canvas all at once. "My process is specifically designed for EXCESS- with so many visual ideas emerging at once, the overwhelmingly vast majority are discarded. I want the unexpected. My goal is to spark ideas that otherwise wouldn't appear with a more deliberative, considered approach," says Fisher. Abelardo Morell explains his admiration for the subject matter of his photographs, "When I visit museums, my eyes often take me first to the painting galleries. I marvel at the surfaces of paintings, which contain their own visual dramas, often independent of any narrative or formal aspect of the work. A difference between us as a photographer and painter is that photographers normally start with the world, while painters begin with a blank canvas and end up at times with astonishing creations." Morell's photographs show "that substance on its way to drying- a stage that finished paintings can never retain. "I also use other lighting sources pointed at a low angle to increase the raking light effects on the thick paint surface. I like the translucent and geometric visual marriages achieved through this method. Because what I am making are not "paintings" in their own right, I am able to quote and crop discrete small paint details to make them play a big role in the final picture." Created specifically for this exhibition and presented at the gallery's entrance is another visual surprise that underlines the connection between these two artists, neighbors and friends- a photograph of Abelardo Morell titled, "Paint: After Anthony Fisher's 2021 Painting 'Some Will Still Be Standing', 2022" right next to the actual painting that inspired this work. Free tickets are available for the opening and closing reception during AHA! Night, Thursday February 10, 6-8 pm (Artist Talk starts at 6:30 pm) and AHA! Night, Thursday, March 10, 6-8 pm at umassdartmouthgalleries.eventbrite.com. The exhibition is open free of charge between February 2 - March 10, 2022. No reservation required to visit the gallery daily from 9 am to 6 pm.

  • Description: OFD "Share Your Research" Series Computer Programs as Creative Works: An Interdisciplinary Research Project with Implications for Multiple Fields Wednesday, February 23, 2022 12:00 p.m. Office of Faculty Development Conference Room, LIB 213 Presenters: Trina Kershaw, Department of Psychology; Ralph Clifford, School of Law; Firas Khatib, Department of Computer & Information Science; and Adnan El-Nasan, Department of Computer & Information Science The scientific study of creativity has not evaluated all fields, including the development of computer software. This lack of scientific insight has important implications for the study of creativity in psychology, the teaching of computer science, and for legal policy. To study whether computer programs are creative works, we collected programs written to solve simple and complex bioinformatics problems. We found a high degree of variation in the programs, and higher ratings on several elements of creativity for the complex problem than for the simple problem. We will discuss implications for the creativity literature, computer science education, and copyright law. This research was sponsored by a grant from the Provost's Multi-Institutional Seed Funding Program.

  • Description: The School for Marine Science and Technology Department of Fisheries Oceanography Seminar Announcement "From Scallop Science in the UK to the US" Adam Delargy, PhD Post-Doctoral Fellow School for Marine Science and Technology University of Massachusetts Dartmouth Wednesday, February 23, 2022 2:30 pm to 3:30 pm SMAST East, Rooms 101/102 Also Via Zoom Abstract: Until recently arriving in the US I’ve primarily studied scallop fishing in the United Kingdom, and this seminar will touch on research from my career so far. One key topic I’ve studied is catch rates and catch efficiency of scallop dredges in the UK, with a strong focus on differences among fishing vessels. Catch efficiency is the fraction of target species caught from those available in the haul path. The driving motivation for much of this work was whether commercial vessels could be substituted for the traditional research vessel for future fishery-independent surveys in Wales. I will present a recent study that analyzed depletion data to estimate catch efficiency from a noisy experiment, using the Patch Model. Next, I will present results from a vessel comparison trial that had commercial vessels fishing alongside the research vessel. Lastly, I’ll briefly discuss other studies I have conducted analyses for, including research of crabs, coral reef fisheries, trawling impacts and shellfish aquaculture. ******************************************************************************** Zoom Link https://umassd.zoom.us/j/93758230260?pwd=OHJ5UDloQkZZaCtXcTlBNlR6Qm0rQT09 Meeting ID: 937 5823 0260 Passcode: 426839 One tap mobile +13017158592,,93758230260#,,,,*426839# US (Washington DC) +13126266799,,93758230260#,,,,*426839# US (Chicago) Dial by your location +1 301 715 8592 US (Washington DC) +1 312 626 6799 US (Chicago) +1 646 876 9923 US (New York) +1 253 215 8782 US (Tacoma) +1 346 248 7799 US (Houston) +1 669 900 6833 US (San Jose) Find your local number: https://umassd.zoom.us/u/acosTPRs4V ******************************************************************************** For additional information, please contact Sue Silva at s1silva@umassd.edu

  • Description: Two of a Kind: Abelardo Morell and Anthony Fisher Exhibition Dates: February 2 - March 10, 2022 OPENING RECEPTION: AHA! Night, Thursday February 10, 6-8 pm | Artist Talk: 6:30 pm CLOSING RECEPTION: AHA! Night, Thursday, March 10, 6-8 pm Reserve your free ticket for the opening and closing: umassdartmouthgalleries.eventbrite.com Facebook + Instagram @ UMassDartmouthGalleries For additional information, please go to: umassd.edu/cvpa/galleries Contact: Viera Levitt, Gallery Director and Exhibition Curator The UMass Dartmouth University Art Gallery at Star Store Campus, Downtown New Bedford has the pleasure to invite you to the exhibition titled, Two of a Kind, featuring large scale photographs of paint by Abelardo Morell in conversation with paintings by Anthony Fisher. This exhibition presents two creative approaches that focus on the abstract image- Abelardo Morell's incredibly lush and sensual photographs of fresh paint frozen in time with the help of light, fast exposure and flash, and Anthony Fisher's ingeniously captured lines and shapes featured on layered, monochromatic abstract paintings. Both Morell and Fisher share a restless urgency to invent novel ways to play with traditional media, subjects, and methods. In their respective studios in the same creative community just outside of Boston, each pours their unique experimentation into their own patient and carefully crafted process. Results sometimes arrive as wonderful surprises transformed into bold work that the visitor can almost enter - inspiring, open minded, and deeply creative. Abelardo Morell admires Anthony's work because he, "like me, thinks a lot about how a picture is made. Subject matter for him is, of course, important, but it is within his working process that the subject emerges. Anthony has used all sorts of devices to make marks on the canvas - perhaps to get his ego out of the way a bit." Anthony Fisher's studio process involves quirky and lumbering invented tools, physical struggle, gravity, chemistry, and physics to allow hundreds of marks to be thrown onto a canvas all at once. "My process is specifically designed for EXCESS- with so many visual ideas emerging at once, the overwhelmingly vast majority are discarded. I want the unexpected. My goal is to spark ideas that otherwise wouldn't appear with a more deliberative, considered approach," says Fisher. Abelardo Morell explains his admiration for the subject matter of his photographs, "When I visit museums, my eyes often take me first to the painting galleries. I marvel at the surfaces of paintings, which contain their own visual dramas, often independent of any narrative or formal aspect of the work. A difference between us as a photographer and painter is that photographers normally start with the world, while painters begin with a blank canvas and end up at times with astonishing creations." Morell's photographs show "that substance on its way to drying- a stage that finished paintings can never retain. "I also use other lighting sources pointed at a low angle to increase the raking light effects on the thick paint surface. I like the translucent and geometric visual marriages achieved through this method. Because what I am making are not "paintings" in their own right, I am able to quote and crop discrete small paint details to make them play a big role in the final picture." Created specifically for this exhibition and presented at the gallery's entrance is another visual surprise that underlines the connection between these two artists, neighbors and friends- a photograph of Abelardo Morell titled, "Paint: After Anthony Fisher's 2021 Painting 'Some Will Still Be Standing', 2022" right next to the actual painting that inspired this work. Free tickets are available for the opening and closing reception during AHA! Night, Thursday February 10, 6-8 pm (Artist Talk starts at 6:30 pm) and AHA! Night, Thursday, March 10, 6-8 pm at umassdartmouthgalleries.eventbrite.com. The exhibition is open free of charge between February 2 - March 10, 2022.

This exhibition presents two creative approaches that focus on the abstract image- Abelardo Morell's incredibly lush and sensual photographs of fresh paint frozen in time with the help of light, fast exposure and flash, and Anthony Fisher's ingeniously captured lines and shapes featured on layered, monochromatic abstract paintings. Both Morell and Fisher share a restless urgency to invent novel ways to play with traditional media, subjects, and methods. In their respective studios in the same creative community just outside of Boston, each pours their unique experimentation into their own patient and carefully crafted process. Results sometimes arrive as wonderful surprises transformed into bold work that the visitor can almost enter - inspiring, open minded, and deeply creative. Abelardo Morell admires Anthony's work because he, "like me, thinks a lot about how a picture is made. Subject matter for him is, of course, important, but it is within his working process that the subject emerges. Anthony has used all sorts of devices to make marks on the canvas - perhaps to get his ego out of the way a bit." Anthony Fisher's studio process involves quirky and lumbering invented tools, physical struggle, gravity, chemistry, and physics to allow hundreds of marks to be thrown onto a canvas all at once. "My process is specifically designed for EXCESS- with so many visual ideas emerging at once, the overwhelmingly vast majority are discarded. I want the unexpected. My goal is to spark ideas that otherwise wouldn't appear with a more deliberative, considered approach," says Fisher. Abelardo Morell explains his admiration for the subject matter of his photographs, "When I visit museums, my eyes often take me first to the painting galleries. I marvel at the surfaces of paintings, which contain their own visual dramas, often independent of any narrative or formal aspect of the work. A difference between us as a photographer and painter is that photographers normally start with the world, while painters begin with a blank canvas and end up at times with astonishing creations." Morell's photographs show "that substance on its way to drying- a stage that finished paintings can never retain. "I also use other lighting sources pointed at a low angle to increase the raking light effects on the thick paint surface. I like the translucent and geometric visual marriages achieved through this method. Because what I am making are not "paintings" in their own right, I am able to quote and crop discrete small paint details to make them play a big role in the final picture." Created specifically for this exhibition and presented at the gallery's entrance is another visual surprise that underlines the connection between these two artists, neighbors and friends- a photograph of Abelardo Morell titled, "Paint: After Anthony Fisher's 2021 Painting 'Some Will Still Be Standing', 2022" right next to the actual painting that inspired this work.
