SUMMARY:ASU Art Museum’s Public Art
DESCRIPTION:Made possible with a gift from Robert and Avery Moric\, father and son ASU Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts alumni (Architecture Class of 1991 and Architecture and Barrett\, The Honors College Class of 2023) and the ASU President’s Club. \nCommissioned by Arizona State University Art Museum with funding by The Diane and Bruce Halle Foundation with additional funding by the Herberger Institute Dean’s Creativity Council. \n“Art has a much bigger role to play in society. Everyone needs access to art\, and at this time\, we need art even more.” -Leo Villareal \n“Point Cloud (ASU)” is a commissioned artwork by Leo Villareal designed specifically for the ASU Art Museum in the Nelson Fine Arts Center. During his visit to the ASU Art Museum\, Villareal was inspired by the museum’s architecture\, designed by Antoine Predock in 1987. “The building defines a journey\, a procession; it defines options and potentials rather than particular paths. It is an open matrix of possibilities rather than particular paths. It is an open matrix of possibilities for engagement both vertically and horizontally\,” Predock said on the experience of walking through the building. Inspired by this phenomenon\, Villareal worked with Kaarta\, the mobile 3D scan technology company\, to map both the inside and outside of the building\, creating over 200\,000\,000 data points. With the accumulated information\, the artist manipulated the data points by employing his custom software to create this public artwork\, seeking to deconstruct and reconstruct architectural rules and systems. “Point Cloud (ASU)” is the first instance Villareal has used actual data sampled from a location as part of an artwork. \nIn “Point Cloud (ASU)\,” Villareal focuses on the blurred boundaries between abstraction\, recognition\, and perception through monolithic screens mounted within the museum’s existing architecture. Through moving layers of light\, Villareal renders the museum’s mapped spaces to reveal details of architecture that are not recognizable to the naked eye. The ever-changing lumens\, slowly panning up and down stairs\, through hallways and colonnades\, echo a sort of procession throughout the museum. At times\, the dots\, lines\, and planes create a recognizable image\, but often\, viewers are taken on a journey that dissolves into abstraction. The ongoing movement prompts consideration for deeper understandings of the masses and forms around us\, questioning what we can see in front of us and what is ephemeral. “Point Cloud (ASU)” serves as a meditation on Predock’s work\, revealing the deep layers and references embedded in the architecture as it ascends toward the heavens and descends into the earth. \nExplore the ASU Art Museum’s public art with works by Leo Villareal\, Robert Arneson\, Luis Jimenez and Eduardo Sarabia.

SUMMARY:Twin Flames: The George Floyd Uprising from Minneapolis to Phoenix
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with ASU’s Center for Work and Democracy and the George Floyd Global Memorial\, ASU Art Museum presents “Twin Flames: The George Floyd Uprising from Minneapolis to Phoenix.” Presented for the first time outside of Minnesota and on view from February 3 through July 28\, 2024 at the ASU Art Museum\, “Twin Flames” asks important questions about the role of art and community as a vehicle for bearing witness and creating deeper understanding and empathy. It also examines the state of public memorials in this country\, and prompts us to reflect on whose stories are shared\, by whom and why.  \nIn contrast to traditional monuments\, “Twin Flames” is a powerful\, community-led exhibition that showcases a selection of the thousands of offerings laid by mourners and protesters at George Floyd Square\, collected by a group of community caretakers and cataloged by the George Floyd Global Memorial team. This exhibition recognizes that creative and artistic expressions of pain and hope exist beyond the walls of museums\, in all forms and a myriad of cultural expressions\, and that George Floyd Square is a public space that can teach us how to mobilize as we mourn victims of police violence and imagine a more just world. \n  \nPublic programs will accompany the exhibition\, including: \nFriday\, February 2\, 2024 (5:00 — 7:00 p.m.): Public Opening Reception \nFriday\, February 2\, 2024 (8:00 — 11:00 p.m.): Taste of Melanin\, Silent Disco \nThursday\, March 28\, 2024 (3:00 — 4:00 p.m.): Histories of Protest in Art and Music \nSaturday\, April 19\, 2024 (7:00 — 9:00 p.m.): Film screening + Panel Discussion for “Stonebreakers” \nThursday\, May 2\, 2024: Are Objects Forever? The Evolving Thinking on Conservation and Collections Care: Hear from Twin Flames’ Community of Practice\, a committee of community members steering the exhibition at ASU Art Museum \n  \n“Twin Flames: The George Floyd Uprising from Minneapolis to Phoenix” is organized by Jeanelle Austin\, Executive Director of the George Floyd Global Memorial; Heather Carroll\, Archiving Sacred Spaces Fellow of the George Floyd Global Memorial; Dr. Rashad Shabazz\, Associate Professor in the Schools of Social Transformation and Geographical Sciences & Urban Planning\, Arizona State University; Maria Esch\, Researcher at the Center for Work and Democracy\, Arizona State University; and ASUAM Curator Brittany Corrales. \nThis exhibition is made possible by  major funding provided by the Burton Family Foundation and Cheryl and Jahm Najafi. \nAdditional generous funding from (as of Feb. 2024) Emily Beach\, Pascha Bueno-Hansen\, Melissa Fernandez\, Carolyn Forbes\, Shelly Gordon\, Kenja Hassan\, Jorge Hernandez\, Dulce Juarez\, Robin Baskin McNulty\, Sentari Minor\, Marco Mojica\, Ramona Norman\, Tracy Perkins\, Olivia Perryman\, Trish Robinson\, Anthony Rowe\, Yasmin Shaheed\, Nancy Temple\, Bart Thurber\, Cheryl Wynn\, Anonymous Donors and the Center for Work and Democracy\, Arizona State University.
