2 EXHIBITION SUMMARY This exhibition features 12 large-scale paintings by artist April Gornik. A resident of Suffolk County, Long Island, April Gornik can be firmly situated in the distinguished American landscape tradition. Devoid of people, her paintings portray the majesty and allure of nature but in a carefully composed manner that draws on diverse sources of inspiration, including photography. The result gives the viewer a sense of the surreal and transcendental. Light plays a powerful role in her paintings, creating a sense of mystery, whether it is sunlight or moonlight. About APRIL GORNIK April Gornik was born April 20, 1953 in Cleveland Ohio. She attended art school when depictions of nature were distinctly out of fashion. After a brief period as a conceptualist, she found herself, much to her surprise, painting landscapes. A few curators and critics have compared her majestic scenes to panels by the likes of Frederic Church and Thomas Moran. But her work is decidedly modern and far more indebted to the Abstract Expressionists. Based in New York and Sag Harbor for many years, she now lives and works in North Haven. At times, Gornik s colors are subdued and muted, even verging on monochrome. This allows her to stress other aspects of her pictures. To be sure, they aren t as symmetrical or as tidy as you first think. Above all, as she puts it, light is the prime mover. Her work can be found in the collections of the Art Gallery of Ontario in Toronto, the Brooklyn Museum, the Dallas Museum of Art, the Jewish Museum, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Whitney Museum of American Art. She is represented by the Danese Gallery in New York. 1

11 Pre- and Post-visit Activities Composite Landscapes: Making Mood Piece by Piece Grades K-12 (Adjust motivation and procedure as necessary.) Motivation Introduction: View artwork from the exhibition Luminous Landscapes of April Gornik. Introduce the students to the contemporary artist April Gornik. What is a contemporary artist? If desired, compare and contrast more traditional landscapes from centuries past. What do all of April Gornik s works of art have in common? What is a landscape, horizon line, foreground, middle ground, and background? Process: Discuss the definition of composite and the use of source materials to create a landscape. Do April Gornik s landscapes appear to be real or imaginary places, what do you see that makes you say that? What moods do they convey? Procedure 1. Ask students to create their own composite landscapes based on mood. Have each student choose a mood word from a hat (Ex: sad, scary, cheerful). Explain that everyone will create a composite landscape that communicates his or her chosen mood. 2. Have students each select at least three source materials (magazine imagery, photographs or drawings, other works of art) to build their landscape from. 3. Choose one or two elements from each source material to integrate into the final landscape. For example: sky, land, water. 3. Use media of your choice to create the final landscapes. Younger students may create a collage by simply cutting up the source materials, rearranging and gluing them to another surface. Intermediate level students may create a drawing by carefully observing the source materials. Older students may elect to scan in the source materials (if not already computer-based) and use Adobe Photoshop or other software to digitally manipulate and combine the various images. 4. When the landscapes are complete, hold a class critique/discussion. Which works of art do the students feel are most successful? Why? Distribute a set of cards with the moods to each student. Without discussion, have students each assign the moods to the landscapes they feel convey them. Emphasize that this an opinion exercise and there are no wrong answers! When finished, discuss the choices everyone made. Why might they be different? We would love to display your finished artwork on our website! See the back page for details! 10
