Shu-Ju Wang
True as Earth, Strong as Water, 2011
Paper, silkscreen, etching
Edition of 26; Relay Replay Press, Portland, OR
TSCPL Permanent Collection
Through her Relay Replay Press, Shu-Ju Wang works with seniors with dementia to create artist’s books that illuminate the creative lives of the elderly. Shu-Ju has captured this life through etchings, handmade paper, and a few words.
This is the story of Arnold E. Metz, who grew up on a farm in South Dakota and served during World War II on the USS President Hayes. He completed his education after the war, graduating from Northern State University (Aberdeen, South Dakota), and had a long educational career in Michigan and South Dakota.
All 4 aspects of this exhibit are embodied in this one book:
The text tells the story of Mr. Metz’s life. The images, whether photographs or geometric designs, depict different stages of his life and give a visual form to his favorite song, San Antonio Rose.
The accordion book structure allows the book to unfold, revealing different stages of Mr. Metz’s life.
The materials tell the story of his travels from the Midwest to the Pacific Ocean. Each sheet of colored paper is made from materials found in the various places he’s lived. The first sheet of brown paper contains soil from the South Dakota farm that Mr. Metz was born and raised on. The blue paper contains water from the Pacific Ocean. The green-blue paper contains water from the Columbia River. The gray-blue paper contains water from the Willamette River, and the last brown paper contains soil from his Oregon farm.
Social Issues—Guns

Saturday Night Special, 1993
Mixed media: handbag, news paper, wood, religious medals, metal bird, handgun
TSCPL Permanent Collection, 2008.7
The term “Saturday Night Special” is slang for a compact, inexpensive
handgun. These guns have a reputation of being cheaply made, easily
affordable, and marketed to low-income buyers in high-crime areas. In the current context of gun control debate, how would you interpret this piece? What does it say to decorate the gun with a bird and pair it with
a silk purse? Is there a double meaning in the phrase “lady’s compact”?
In October 2010 the MoA (Museum of Art Seoul National University) in Korea acquired FF Scala for its permanent collection, the ‘Design and Crafts’ collection. It was the first time the museum made an aquisition of a typeface.
The exhibition ‘MoA Invites 2011’ took place from 19 January 2011 untill 2 February 2011, showing all new aquisitions of last year, including FF Scala. One of the nice things is that the museum actually uses FF Scala in its printed matter: the english text in the catalogue is set in it.

Marino Marini was born in the Tuscan town of Pistoia on February 27, 1901. He attended the Accademia di Belle Arti in Florence in 1917. Although he never abandoned painting, Marini devoted himself primarily to sculpture from about 1922. From this time his work was influenced by Etruscan art and the sculpture of Arturo Martini. Marini succeeded Martini as professor at the Scuola d’Arte di Villa Reale in Monza, near Milan, in 1929, a position he retained until 1940. During this period Marini traveled frequently to Paris, where he associated with Massimo Campigli, Giorgio de Chirico, Alberto Magnelli, and Filippo de Pisis. In 1936 he moved to Tenero-Locarno, in the Ticino canton, Switzerland; during the following few years the artist often visited Zurich and Basel, where he became a friend of Alberto Giacometti, Germaine Richier, and Fritz Wotruba. In 1936 he received the Prize of the Quadriennale of Rome. He accepted a professorship in sculpture at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera, Milan, in 1940.
In 1946 the artist settled permanently in Milan. He participated in Twentieth-Century Italian Art at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1944. Curt Valentin began exhibiting Marini’s work at his Buchholz Gallery in New York in 1950, on which occasion the sculptor visited the city and met Jean Arp, Max Beckmann, Alexander Calder, Lyonel Feininger, and Jacques Lipchitz. On his return to Europe, he stopped in London, where the Hanover Gallery had organized a solo show of his work, and there met Henri Moore. In 1951 a Marini exhibition traveled from the Kestner-Gesellschaft Hannover to the Kunstverein in Hamburg and the Haus der Kunst of Munich. He was awarded the Grand Prize for Sculpture at the Venice Biennale in 1952 and the Feltrinelli Prize at the Accademia dei Lincei in Rome in 1954. One of his monumental sculptures was installed in the Hague in 1959.
Retrospectives of Marini’s work took place at the Kunsthaus Zürich in 1962 and at the Palazzo Venezia in Rome in 1966. His paintings were exhibited for the first time at Toninelli Arte Moderna in Milan in 1963–64. In 1973 a permanent installation of his work opened at the Galleria d’Arte Moderna in Milan, and in 1978 a Marini show was presented at the National Museum of Modern Art in Tokyo. Marini died on August 6, 1980, in Viareggio.

This book brings centuries-old traditions together: papermaking, bookbinding, and basket weaving. The artist learned this twining technique from her brother-in-law, a master weaver. This sharing of knowledge is also a time-honored
tradition.

Bookplate design for Mouse Dreger, c. 1920s
Woodcut
Gift of Ester L. Peers
These two woodcut prints were inspired by the Art Nouveau style and the illustrator Aubrey Beardsley.
Art Nouveau, as a style, used graceful,
curvilinear lines while having a sensuous and dreamlike feel. Many of the images are
romantic and naturalistic.
Beardsley’s work featured large dark areas contrasted with large blank ones, and areas of fine detail contrasted with areas with none at all. Much of Beardsley’s work had a mythical and romantic feel.
Peer’s prints have the same dreamlike quality and attention to detail, however you can see how Peer’s has started to simplify and streamline the forms and shapes. These are characteristics of the new modern style, Art Deco.

The words on one side of the book are covered with black thread. The words on the other side are clear and easy to read. One side represents the artist’s spoken conversation, while the other side is the commentary running through her head.
Why do you think the artist chose to cover some of the words with thread?
