Article: Caravaggio: An Italian Anti-hero’s Time to Shine

ione — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 17:45:26 +0000

When art history is on the front page of the New York Times, it is worth mentioning it here. This article, by Michael Kimmelman, argues that Michaelangelo has been bumped from his perch atop the Italian art charts by Caravaggio. Kimmelman cites a study by Philip Sohm presented at the College Art Association (CAA) meeting in February (2010). The supposition from the data is that people today relate more easily to Caravaggio’s anti-hero style than the classical tradition of Michelangelo. You can read the full article here

Exhibition: Perceptual Ruminations: Artwork by Amy Ione

Amy Ione — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 04:56:26 +0000

Gaia Arts Center, January 2010

The
varieties of visual perception are Ione’s primary artistic interest. Her
earliest experiments intuitively introduced her to the nature of our perceptual
experience. Discovering that scientific studies in neuroscience and
psychophysics complemented her work as a painter led Ione to add her voice to
the academic arena in order to specifically address aspects of a creative
practice that were underexposed in creativity research. Her art continues to provide a means of
creative exploration and to inform the themes investigated in her academic
research. Currently her studio
practice integrates representational exercises with perceptual explorations to
deepen and expand her understanding of both our visual processes and
creativity.

Ione's
art has been commissioned by the City of San Francisco, has been exhibited
extensively in the United States and Europe, and is found in many
collections. Her invited academic
presentations include the Keynote address for the 2000 San Francisco
International Arts Festival, a talk for the Medical Society of London, an art
and science lecture for a symposium sponsored by the Qatar Foundation, and
lectures at institutes and universities throughout the world (The Mitteleuropa
Institute, the Kyoto Institute of Technology, University College London,
Wesleyan University, etc.). Her writing has appeared in Leonardo, Trends in Cognitive Science, The Handbook of Neurology, The Neurobiology of Painting, The Encyclopedia of Creativity, and other books and journals.
Ione’s latest book is Innovation and Visualization: Trajectories,
Strategies, and Myths (2006).
She also served as the Special Editor for a special issue on Visual
Images and Visualization for the Journal of the History of the Neurosciences
(2008). More information about her work
is available at www.amyione-online.com.
