OPENLANDS ANNOUNCES DOUG FOGELSON AS ARTIST-IN-RESIDENCE

***Year-Long Partnership to Focus on Nature in the Region***

(Chicago – September 15, 2015) Openlands announces that Doug Fogelson is the regional conservation organization’s first Artist-In-Residence. The residency commences late summer 2015 and extends until summer 2016. Fogelson’s residency will focus on natural spaces around the Chicago region in which Openlands has worked in its 52-year history. These will include, but not be limited to, forest preserves, wildlife refuges, and the Openlands Lakeshore Preserve. The residency will culminate in an exhibition, as well as lectures and other events, following the year.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with Doug Fogelson, a Chicago based photographic artist who has achieved national acclaim,” said Openlands President and CEO Jerry Adelmann. “Having started as a social justice organization, Openlands’ conservation mission is rooted in people and connecting them to nature where they live. Doug’s images challenge and invite the viewer to see our world in new and evocative ways. We look forward to his unique vision of some of our most beloved landscapes.”

“Working with Openlands is a unique opportunity to experience the rich landscape in our region and visually engage dialog about it,” Fogelson remarks. “I intend to personally learn and feel through a process of regular site visits and studio production over the next four seasons and synthesize a body of work that reflects issues surrounding non-human life to the people living amongst it.”

Broken Cabinet at Linda Warren Projects

Broken Cabinet Exhibition at Linda Warren Projects:

Linda Warren Projects 
Gallery X: Doug Fogelson, "Broken Cabinet" September 11 - November 7, 2015

Opening Reception: September 11, 2015, 6-9pm 
EXPO Chicago Celebration Sunday Brunch: Sunday September 20, 10am-12pm
Discussion with Giovanni Aloi, Scholar & Author: Saturday, October 10, 2-4pm

In "Broken Cabinet," Chicago artist Doug Fogelson highlights a disconnect between humans and the natural world. In his photograms, the artist places organic items like coral, coyote claws, moths and fox skulls upon photosensitive materials to create candy-colored shadows of these artifacts. Bringing the natural world into the manmade, Fogelson calls attention to the impact that mankind has on the environment; exhibiting the photograms beneath partially shattered glass, the artist emphasizes the fact that it's most often at the hand of humans that various organisms are undergoing extinction.

Fogelson's installation of this series of photograms is of particular importance. In an effort to reflect the vastness of the natural world, the works are displayed in a grid upon a single wall of the gallery. Here, mushrooms, horseshoe crabs, shark teeth and horsehair are presented democratically, reinforcing the artist's message that each organism is of equal importance on earth. In addition to the wallbound works, Fogelson exhibits a vitrine filled with the actual objects indexed in his photograms, sourced from EBay, taxidermists, fishing stores, strange shops and on walks in nature. This collection of natural artifacts is the artist's own "cabinet of curiosities," providing three-dimensional counterparts to the reanimated yet flattened forms of the photograms.

Gallery Y: “Roots” Group Exhibition

June 19 – August 15, 2015
Opening Reception: June 19, 2015, 6-9pm

This summer’s exhibition, “Roots” (Gallery Y), features 18 gallery artists whose work relates to the broad and beautiful subject matter of trees. Also on display is a solo exhibition of new work by Lora Fosberg, “More Trees Please” (Gallery X). The concept for such a simple yet deep and rich group exhibition is a manifestation of a very personal vision for Linda Warren, as it mirrors an overarching theme that can be found in the practices of many artists within the gallery roster – and clearly not by chance.

This universal love affair with nature, and more specifically with trees, has created a unifying link amongst the works of gallery artists Jason Brammer, Doug Fogelson, Carson Fox, Conrad Freiburg, Nicole Gordon, Michiko Itatani, Emmett Kerrigan, William Eckhardt Kohler, Brenda Moore, Judith Mullen, Joseph Noderer, Jennifer Presant, Nina Rizzo, Zach Taylor, Tom Torluemke, Chris Uphues, Tom Van Eynde and Matthew Woodward. “Roots” reflects a microcosmic parallel to mankind’s overall worship of trees, which has existed throughout history and within cultures around the globe. Whether used directly as a representational subject, as a source of inspiration for narrative, line, lighting, composition, color, or even as a catalyst for emotional or intellectual investigation, the tree is a vast symbol open to interpretation. For so many people, trees provide emotional support and comfort, shelter, aesthetic pleasure, wonderment and awe. They remind us to breathe, to appreciate life and its natural beauty. There is a fascination and appreciation for trees that seems fundamental to our being.

Broken Cabinet at La Luz De Jesus Gallery in LA

DOUG FOGELSON & DON FRITZ

DOUG FOGELSON
Broken Cabinet

This series looks at reanimating objects via multiple exposures of colored light, blended to make new color mixes. The flora and fauna are representative of species becoming extinct at alarming rates in this Anthropocene era, due mostly to human induced climate change and related abusive actions. By showcasing them under broken glass in candy colors, the viewer is stimulated to look deeper at the quality of their forms.

Fogelson stresses that the objects dictate their own image as they index themselves in the cameraless process he uses with subjects sitting upon light sensitive materials. The agency of light and the work of collecting and composing complete it. States of decomposition are often colorful, and Broken Cabinet reminds us that this beauty carries a cost.
