Collecting Space and Form Exhibit<\/p><\/div>\n

Modernist architecture is on full display at UC Clermont College now through Dec. 13 as part of \u201cCollecting Space and Form: Ideas of the Modern,\u201d featuring exhibits from the Robert A. Deshon and Karl J. Schlachter Library for Design, Art, Architecture and Planning at the University of Cincinnati\u2019s Uptown campus.<\/p>\n

In the mid-20th-century, Cincinnati architects created buildings and planning of local, national and international importance. Cincinnati played a significant, but largely unrecognized, role in the introduction of International Style Modernist architecture to the United States.<\/p>\n

The DAAP library has been collecting and archiving drawings, photographs and other materials related to Cincinnati Modernist architecture since 2008. This exhibit focuses specifically on Cincinnati Modernist architect Woodie Garber, who had an important though sometimes tense relationship with the University. In the late 1960s-70s, Garber created a master plan and designed several buildings for UC. Two of his buildings were built: the Sander Hall dormitory complex and Procter Hall for the College of Nursing and Health. Sander Hall dormitory was demolished (though its adjacent cafeteria building survives, repurposed for new uses) and Procter Hall has been re-clad and remodeled. Garber also interacted with UC by employing many DAAP architecture students as cooperative education interns in his office and hiring some after their graduation.<\/p>\n

Further emphasizing the breadth of UC\u2019s collection are artists\u2019 books from the DAAP Library focusing on the link between art and language. This selection of modern works from UC\u2019s vast collection links the ideas of space and form, from the archival aspects of architecture, to the collecting of the three-dimensional as it meets in the two-dimensional within artists\u2019 books.<\/p>\n

The show was curated by Patrick Snadon, UC\u00a0professor emeritus, design and architectural historian;\u00a0Elizabeth Meyer, DAAP librarian; and\u00a0Carla Cesare, assistant professor of art history.<\/p>\n

The Park National Bank Art Gallery<\/a> is located in the Snyder Building on the UC Clermont College campus in Batavia at 4200 Clermont College Drive. Gallery summer hours are Monday through Friday, 8 a.m.\u20135 p.m. For more than 20 years, the spacious 1,000-square-foot gallery has offered visual art exhibits open to UC Clermont students, faculty, staff and the general public.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
