Naomi Savage, photographer, born June 25, 1927 and died at her home in Princeton, New Jersey, on November 22, 2005. While still in high school, she took a class in photography at the New School for Social Research with Berenice Abbott. Some twenty years earlier, Abbott had studied photography in Paris with Man Ray, who was Naomi Savage’s uncle. In 1946, Savage enrolled in Bennington College, where she studied art and music, but before graduating, left to be an apprentice for Man Ray in Hollywood. He taught her that photography was above all a creative process, one of many tools that could be used for the purpose of visual expression. When she returned to New York in 1948, she combined her love of music with her skill in photography by taking portraits of the best known composers of day: Aaron Copland, John Cage, Virgil Thomson, etc. (over 30 in all). Throughout her career, she experimented with the medium of photography, continuously inventing new and highly original techniques. Perhaps her best known work is a series of metal photo engravings (1972) dominating the walls of the LBJ Library in Austin, Texas. In her later years, she became attracted to the enormous potential of digital imagery, experimenting with various methods to manipulate and enhance color, even using new and unconventional materials for laser printing. She exhibited widely, most recently at the Montclair Art Museum, and her photographs are included in major institutional collections throughout the United States……………..provided by Francis M. Naumann.
Francis M. Naumann is an art historian, who specializes in art of the Dada and Surrealist period. He has written extensively on the art of Marcel Duchamp and Man Ray. His New York Dada 1915-23 (1994) is considered the definitive history of the movement, and his “Making Mischief: Dada Invades New York” (1996) is the most comprehensive exhibition on the subject ever assembled. His doctoral dissertation was on Man Ray’s early years in New York, later published as Conversion to Modernism: The Early Work of Man Ray (2003). Throughout his years of his research on Man Ray, he met Naomi Savage and, over the years, they became good friends.

Painter, sculptor, photographer, filmmaker, draftsman…Man Ray has never limited himself to a single medium of artistic expression, tirelessly seeking new possibilities of creation or diversion of existing techniques. Considering art essentially as a game, he refused to attach himself to a determined style. Man Ray was born in 1980 in Philadelphia. In 1913, he discovered at the exhibition The Armory Show in New York European artists like Marcel Duchamp and Francis Picabia. With Marcel Duchamp he created and experimented with optical devices to study motion. He participated in the Dada movement in New york until 1921, when he left for France. As he arrived in Paris, Marcel Duchamp introduced him to the Parisian artistic scene. It was the beginning of an intense period of creation: photographs (fashion, portraits, art), exhibitions, films…In the interwar period Paris, Man Ray frequents all the greatest actors of creation, Dadaists, Surrealists, writers, filmmakers, fashion designers…In 1940, Man Ray had to leave France for the United States, where he realized major works like the Shakespearian paintings, etc. Man Ray returned to Paris in 1951, moved to rue Ferou where he painted, drew, wrote his memoirs and continued to use photographic processes. Thus begins the edition of his objects “Objects of my affection” first with Marcel Zerbib, then with Arturo Schwarz. Man Ray died on November 18, 1976 in Paris. He is buried in the Montparnasse cemetery.
…………………………………………. excerpt from Man Ray International Association
Mathematical Object (Anthony) is one of some twenty photographs taken by Man Ray in 1934-35 of mathematical models located in the Institut Poincaré in Paris. Twelve of the photographs were featured in a 1936 issue of the journal Cahiers d’Art devoted to the “object” and four were exhibited in MoMA’s exhibition the same year, Fantastic Art, Dada, Surrealism. The models were drawn to his attention by Max Ernst, who had discovered them and thought them exceptionally provocative, surreal shapes. The models were used to render complex mathematical formulae into three-dimensional form, but it was not their origin in mathematics that attracted the interests of Man Ray. “The formulas accompanying them meant nothing to me,” he later explained, “the forms themselves were as varied and authentic as any in nature” (Self-Portrait, 1963, p. 368). While living in Hollywood, California, in the 1940s, Man Ray used the photographs he had taken in the Institut Poincaré as the basis of a series of pictures that he grouped under the title “The Shakespearean Equations,” which, in true Dada and Surrealist fashion, had as little to do with Shakespeare as they did with equations. Man Ray retrieved the photographs he had printed in the 1930s on a trip back to Paris in 1947, and this example is believed to be among them. This particular print is often titled Antony, as we know that it was used as the basis for the figure of Anthony in his painting Antony and Cleopatra, 1948.

ARTIST BIO
Janet Taylor Pickett (b. 1948) earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the University of Michigan School of Art in 1970, followed by a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan School of Architecture and Design in 1972. She pioneered a groundbreaking visual language to explore themes of Blackness, identity, and the complexities of lived experience. She furthered her education at Parsons School of Design, the Fashion Institute of Technology, and the Vermont Studio School, where she had the honor of collaborating with Sam Gilliam. She devoted over thirty years to teaching and developing curricula focused on the History of African American Art at Essex County College and Bloomfield College. Additionally, she was a founding member of Montclair University’s African American Studies program.

Necessary Memories
A Conversation with Marion K. Maneker and Janet Taylor Pickett
Tuesday, September 14, at 5PM at Jennifer Baahng Gallery
On September 14th, 2021, ARTnews President and Editorial Director Marion K. Maneker joined artist Janet Taylor Pickett for a discussion of “Necessary Memories” (Sept 14 – Nov 20, 2021), her solo exhibition at JENNIFER BAAHNG. The show chronicles Taylor Pickett’s journey as an artist, showcasing selected works from the 1980’s through 2021. In their conversation, Maneker and Taylor Pickett discuss how Blackness functions as what Taylor Pickett calls a “declarative statement” in her work, and the role that history and narrative play in her practice. Born in Ann Arbor Michigan, Taylor Pickett is a mixed media artist whose work is inspired by her life experience as an African American woman.

American, b. 1951, Pittsburgh, California, based in the Washington D.C.
Brian Dailey’s work in a variety of mediums including photography, film, installations, and painting engages with the social, political, and cultural issues of our times. His life journey and its many peregrinations since launching his art career in Los Angeles in the 1970s have led him on a path of many surprising twists and turns, encapsulated in his creative vision as a self-described storyteller. Dailey’s art reflects his unconventional evolution as an artist and multifaceted life experiences, which include national level involvement in arms control and international security. The artist’s unusual experiences, which he approached with the same curiosity that has driven his art in diverse media, continue to provide a fertile source of inspiration in his unconventional creative practice such as the global video installation WORDS (2012-2018). Dailey has had solo exhibitions in Los Angeles, New York, Washington D.C., and Bulgaria and participated in a number of group shows in the United States, Europe, and Russia. His mid-career retrospective Declassified: Unraveling a Paradoxtook place at Bulgaria’s National Art Gallery in Sophia in 2014.
