Interviews by Brainard Carey

Francine Tint In the Studio Over more than five decades, Francine Tint has created a remarkable body of work. Her paintings display an exhilarating freedom of execution combined with an original and frequently surprising color sensibility, varying in size from 10 inches to nearly 20 feet. Her brushwork ranges from languorous and undulating swaths of paint to aggressive and agitated gestures. Her works speak of a powerful and unwavering commitment to the visual and emotional vocabulary of abstract painting, and they embody the artist's personal and deeply held belief in the power of intuitive creation. ​ Tint's direct heritage may be traced to Abstract Expressionism and Color Field painting. Her admiration for those artists is enormous, but she also reaches more deeply into art history. Artists who are touchstones for Tint include Édouard Manet, Francisco Goya, Pompeian frescoes from the Roman Empire, and especially J.M.W Turner for his reliance on inspiration and radical painting techniques. She is particularly fond of 16th-century Mannerist painters; Jacopo Pontormo's idiosyncratic colors and anatomical and spatial distortions fascinate Tint. She also has a deep interest in Asian brush paintings. Recently, Tint has been mining her books on paleolithic cave paintings where she is captivated by their creators' profound identification with the animals they depicted, an identification which extends to handprints stenciled directly onto the cave walls. She is reminded of the foot and handprints that appear in her paintings. ​ Tint's work has been exhibited in over thirty solo shows in the United States and Europe, and is in the permanent collections of numerous museums including the Clement Greenberg collection at the Portland Art Museum and the Krannert Art Museum in Chicago. Her work is in private and corporate collections including Pepsi Co. and Mount Sinai Hospital. Francine Tint, Golden Flutter, 2024, Acrylic on canvas, 54 X 39 in.

Although the commission was originally given to Michelangelo in 1508, the eventual carving of the sculpture fell into the lesser hands of Baccio Bandinelli. Symbolic of the new authoritative Medici regime and rule over the city, the sculpture was a strong man image intended to warn Florentines of the consequences of revolt. It is also a prime example of the new Mannerist style which dominated Florentine art in the 16th century.

In s2e11, Tru Ludwig and Ann Shafer talk about chiaroscuro woodcuts before moving on to the Mannerist painter and printmaker Parmigianino. Coming off the High Renaissance and the Sack of Rome in 1527, artists were looking for ways to shake it up. Out goes the solid forms and placid emotions and in comes the twisting, off-kilter compositions and extremes in emotions. Parmigianino is the first to really take up etching in a meaningful way (it's been engraving until this point--remember, Dürer tried etching but hated it). Tru makes the case for Parmigianino as a crucial creator. Ann becomes a fan.

In episode 47 of The Great Women Artists Podcast, Katy Hessel interviews the highly esteemed, Cambridge University Art History professor and Surrealist EXPERT, Alyce Mahon on the magical LEONOR FINI (1907–1996) !!!!  [This episode is brought to you by Alighieri jewellery: www.alighieri.co.uk | use the code TGWA at checkout for 10% off!] The MATRIARCH of 20th century painting, known for her highly original works of supernatural portraits that empowered her female protagonists in the forms of sphinxes, Fini switched up gender roles like no other and was one of the most ground-breaking painters of the twentieth century. Born in Buenos Aires of mixed Spanish, Italian, and Argentine descent, Leonor escaped Argentina when she was 18 months old with her young mother, who raised her in Trieste where she was exposed to Mannerist and Renaissance painting, and her uncle's library where she read Freud and Jung. Fini, although known for her meticulously executed paintings, was completely self-taught.  With her intelligence, famous wit and charisma, she had garnered celebrity status in the Paris Avant Garde by the early 30s, and was exhibiting in the major surrealist exhibitions. But it was her portraits made in the late 30s and images of women in the forms of sphinxes that garnered her attention.  With the predominant themes in her art being sexual tensions, mysteries and games, her favoured subjects explored the interplay between the dominant female and the passive male. In many of her most powerful works the female takes the form of the sphinx to which she felt a strong identification. Whilst many of her peers ventured to New York and Mexico after World War II, Fini moved first to Rome and then back to Paris where she became an acclaimed set and costume designer for the likes of Fellini's film, Eight and a Half, and designed dresses and masquerades for Brigitte Bardot.

217: Omnia Era of Cider | Pommes in Art

Cider Chat

Let’s search for the fruit of the story from the Renaissance era to the often-bizarre works of the Mannerist painter of that time. We are exploring how history is repeating itself in our cups of cider in this edition of Pommes in Art. Take for instance, Michelangelo’s sculpture of David. Michelangelo’s sculpture of David Work began in 1501 and was finished 1504. David stands at 517 cm high × 199 wide cm, which is 17 ft high × 6.5 ft wide. Just imagine the size of that white marble before the task of sculpting began. They had to put up staging to work and one simple misstep -  and years of work could be gone. I didn’t realize at the time that David is an excellent example of art from the Renaissance era. I had no idea at the time what that meant. But now know, thanks to my research for Pommes in Art, that this period is all about of symmetry. The Renaissance depicted the idealized human and scene. If I knew then what I know now, maybe I would have lingered a bit longer before that marble statue before bolting for the door. Cider like art can overwhelm and turn off the would-be drinkers. Like art with its Early Renaissance, Renaissance and Late Renaissance, cider also has its periods of time. Early Cider PreProhibition Cider Post Prohibition Cider and the period that we are currently in which I call” Omnia”, which is Latin for Everything. In the Omnia Era of Cider everything is up for grabs from traditional cidermaking to modern. The consumers want variety and the makers are meeting their patron's demand. As a cider geek, I have some understanding of cider through the ages and enjoy delving into a glass and looking for the subtleties. For the rest of the drinking world I can only imagine how quickly they might get bored by cider, “Where are the bubbles?” Or “I can’t taste the apple?” When life is not relatable, we move on.  “I don’t get this painting.” can be flipped just as easily to “I don’t get this cider.”   What is relatable is a good story and both art and cider are gold medal winners in this arena. In this episode 217, I thought all I was going to talk about was one portrait of Rudolf II who was the Holy Roman Emperor from 1576–1612. The Italian painter Giuseppe Arcimboldo used fruits, meats, fish, vegetables and assorted objects to create the portrait. Using assorted edibles and objects was Arcimboldo’s trademark. He did a series of portraits depicting the four seasons, Winter, Spring, Summer and Autumn. And another series on the four elements, Earth, Air, Fire and Water. But his most famous of all is of Rudolf II. Giuseppe Arcimboldo's Vertumnus for Rudolf II ] Hans von Portrait of Emperor Rudolf II Knowing Rudolf II title, I was a little concern for Arcimboldo. Was the Holy Emperor of Rome amused or angered by this fruity depiction? Evidently, he was amused and was quite the connoisseur of the unusual. It wasn’t unusual for Rudolf II to be found gazing at his art collection. The guy could deal with out of the box. I bet he would have liked a cider made with habanero pepper from the Omnia Era of Cider. The portrait wasn’t just a typical portrait like one would see in the Renaissance period. Arcimboldo depicted the Holy Emperor of Rome as Vertumnus, the Roman god of metamorphoses. It was a brilliant move by Arcimboldo to portray his patron as a god. Like who wouldn’t want that? Right? Vertumnus is of particular interest to us student of all things Pomme because he was considered a shape shifter who at one time took the shape of an old woman, in his quest to win over the goddess Pomona. In case you do not know of Pomona she is the Roman goddess of fruit trees, gardens, and orchards has a unique status within mythology because unlike other Roman goddesses and gods, she does not have a Greek counterpart. Pomona comes the Latin word “pomum” meaning orchard fruit. The tale of Pomona and Vertumnus is told in the 14th book of Roman poet Ovid’s Metamorphoses. There is a total of 15 books telling the story of over 250 myths. Even by today’s standard, where we think the Harry Potter series of 7 books is something. Imagine Ovid doing so without a great pen to write with or a computer for that matter. Yow! Back to the story of Vertumnus. He had tried to seduce Pomona a number of times before using his super powers of shapeshifting. He tried being an apple picker, harvester, keeper of a vineyard, a fisherman and a soldier. Pomona didn’t want men in her orchards, because she didn’t want them to trample the gardens. So, each time she turned away the shape shifting god. It wasn’t until he transformed into an old woman that Pomona allowed him to enter. Once next to Pomona and still in disguise of an old women, he began to tell tales of unrequited love that ended miserably for the suitor. Pomona was not swayed, that is until Vertumnus finally took off his disguise and showed his true self. Pomona falls for the dude and they live happily ever after tending the gardens together. Vertumnus & Pomona by Adriaen Backer (Dutch, 1635–1684) Which just goes to show you that the moral of Ovid’s story of Vertumnus and Pomona is that deception will not prevail over one’s own true authentic self. This lesson is a true to today as it was then back in a.d. 8 when Ovid wrote his poem Metamorphoses! And in case you are wondering how long ago that is, well the computer calculations say over 2000 years ago. And in case you are wondering if cider was around back then, the answer would be yes. The folks on the western coast of Spain where writing about cider way back then too! I believe this Omnia Era of Cider is quite similar to the Mannerist period where anything goes. Like the Mannerist period we see today a bit of chaos, imbalance, and even shock and awe in ciders of during this Omnia era. Who will be the Arcimboldo of Cider that the future will salute in the years to come? How long will this Omnia Era of Cider last? As I figure now, this period of cidermaking is less than 20 years old which if we look to art as our guide is a relatively short time. Transformation is inevitable, and more often than not it is uncomfortable. This spring of 2020 is one of those moments of time worldwide when transformation is here whether we like it or not. 2020 will be told in stories and noted by generations to come. We are living the history of tomorrow. We are creating our narrative and we will transform.

Michelangelo was an amazingly talented painter, architect, and poet, but his favorite art form was sculpting. He was probably the most talented sculptor who ever lived, perhaps even the most talented artist who ever lived. His art was dramatic, detailed, and always perfect. The people he sculpted were usually twisting or displayed in striking (or maybe awkward) poses. All this drama makes Michelangelo a link between the traditional Renaissance art and the Mannerist movement which bridges the Renaissance and Baroque periods.

Jacopo Carucci, called Pontormo after the Tuscan town he came from, was a leader of the Mannerist movement that dominated Italian painting in the 16th century. Michelangelo once predicted that a 19- year-old Pontormo “will exalt this art to the heavens.” At a small show currently at the Morgan Library and Museum, Pontormo’s 1528 painting “Visitation” is being seen in America for the first time—on loan from a small church near Florence. The New Yorker has called it “one of the damnedest great paintings of all time.” In this installment of “Leonard Lopate at Large,” Mary Hogan Camp, art historian and docent coordinator at the Morgan, will talk about the exhibition and why Pontormo deserves to be ranked among the master artists of the Renaissance.
