SUMMARY:Dialogue: Lindenfeld + Lindenfeld
DESCRIPTION:Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center presents Dialogue: Lindenfeld + Lindenfeld\, an exhibition celebrating the works of mother-daughter artists\, Lore Kadden Lindenfeld and Naomi Lindenfeld. Lore\, who attended and graduated from Black Mountain College in the 1940s\, made a career as a textile designer and educator while continuing to create weavings\, fiber collages\, artist books\, and drawings. Her daughter Naomi creates colored clay objects that are tactile\, useful\, and visually complex. In the exhibition\, the mesmerizing striations of color in Naomi Lindenfeld’s pottery are placed in dynamic conversation with her mother’s innovative textiles\, mixed media collages\, and drawings.  \nFrom Naomi Lindenfeld—  \nI grew up with my mother’s loom in our family’s living room. Not many years later I ended up with clay carving tools and a rolling pin in my own ceramics studio. The pairings of work in this show exemplify the influences of my mother’s work on me and have served as an opportunity to both grow creatively and to honor my mother and her life’s work. \nI grew up hearing riveting stories of Black Mountain College\, its avant-garde\, experimental environment and brilliant\, unique personalities. As well\, I was exposed to many artists and craftspeople during my childhood and took my first pottery class with a friend of my mother’s. I responded to the immediacy of clay more than what appeared to be the tedium of threading warps on a loom. While working on a degree in ceramics from Boston University’s Program in Artisanry\, I discovered the Japanese technique\, Nerikomi\, of layering colored clays to create patterns. I have been captivated by exploring many ways of working with colored clay ever since. I have also come to realize that my method of working with clay – the sense of movement\, abstract graphic quality\, nature-themed imagery and vivid color – echoes my mother’s textiles. In designing work for this show\, I was first more drawn to my mother’s fiber collage work than her weavings\, as a closer match for my own techniques and sensibilities. I later saw that the way I carve into the layers in two directions appears as woven fabric. \nIt was both fascinating and challenging to interpret a two-dimensional medium within a three-dimensional realm; to not just reproduce my mother’s ideas and imagery but to draw inspiration and design the pieces as my own. My hope is that my ceramics\, while paying homage to my mother\, stand on their own just as her fiber works do. \n___ \nARTISTS \nLore Kadden Lindenfeld (1921 – 2010) emigrated with her family from Germany to the U.S. in 1938. After settling in a suburb of Boston\, Lore worked to help support her family\, earning fourteen dollars per week as a seamstress and sales clerk. She was the primary breadwinner for the family. She had previously studied fashion design in Germany and worked as a seamstress doing alterations and in various other jobs.  \nAfter enrolling in adult education classes at Harvard\, she received a scholarship to study at Black Mountain College in 1945. She remained at BMC until she graduated in 1948. Lore studied textile design with Anni Albers\, Trude Guermonprez\, and Franziska Mayer as well as taking classes with mathematician Max Dehn\, artist Josef Albers\, and writer M.C. Richards.. Her training at BMC was integral to her development as a textile designer and her work in industrial textile production.  \nInspired by the Alberses and the Bauhaus tradition\, she worked as a textile designer for the New York fashion industry\, followed by a career as a weaver\, fiber collage artist\, and as a weaving and art history teacher on the college level.   \nNaomi Lindenfeld has developed a line of colored clay works\, intended for daily use as well as for gatherings and celebrations. Flowing movement is the main feeling that Naomi hopes to convey in her work. Her inspiration is drawn from her love of dance\, patterns in the natural world that result from the movement of water and wind on materials like rock\, wood\, and shells. The colored clay technique allows one to work with colors while making a piece. Naomi loves to experiment with different color combinations to see how colors blend and contrast to create different moods.  \nShe took her first pottery class at the age of 12\, continuing to work in clay in high school\, and finally earning a degree in ceramics from Boston University’s Program in Artisanry. Naomi has had the chance to share her enthusiasm of colored clay by teaching workshops at many craft institutes around New England\, and since the fall of 1998\, she has been the ceramics teacher at The Putney School. While being one of the founding members of the Brattleboro Clayworks\, a potter’s collective\, she now has her own home studio in West Brattleboro.  \n___ \nRECEPTION AND TALK \nJoin us for the opening reception for Dialogue: Lindenfeld + Lindenfeld hosted at BMCM+AC on Friday\, January 30\, 2025 from 5:30–8pm. \nOn Saturday\, January 31\, 2025 at 11am\, Naomi Lindenfeld will give a “Perspectives” talk about Dialogue: Lindenfeld + Lindenfeld and the artistic conversations between works in the exhibition. \nBoth events take place at Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center {120 College Street\, Asheville\, NC}. Free and Open to All.

SUMMARY:Craft-itarianism: Community Action Through Craft

Launched in 2017\, the Curatorial Fellowship supports emerging curators exploring new ideas about craft with mentorship\, professional development\, and a $5\,000 honorarium to realize an exhibition. \nOn view February 27\, 2026–September 27\, 2026

SUMMARY:Delicate Steve w/ See Night
DESCRIPTION:ALL AGES\nSTANDING ROOM ONLY \nDELICATE STEVE\nTake a visit to Luke’s Garage\, Delicate Steve’s latest album\, and you’ll discover a place where sparks of creativity fly in all directions\, where melodies splatter the walls like brightly hued paint\, where no idea is too simple\, too ingenuous\, too full of childlike wonder. The L.A.-via-Jersey guitarist born Steve Marion\, whose credits include session work for Amen Dunes\, Paul Simon\, and Deradoorian\, had no grand plan for making it: he would simply book some time at a friend’s studio\, hunker down\, and play. He’s always allowed intuition to guide him\, composing his jubilantly tuneful instrumentals as he records them\, but this time\, he felt freer than ever to “keep the seams showing\, and don’t polish everything\, and keep it raw\, and alive\, and electric-feeling\,” he says. He chose the title\, Luke’s Garage\, as a tribute to his pal and sometime collaborator Luke Temple\, but also for the anything-goes adolescent innocence it conjured: the feeling of heading over to a buddy’s house\, turning up the amps\, and creating your own world. \nIn the world of Luke’s Garage\, a passage of music that feels like a sketch in progress might open into a hook so finely wrought\, so obviously right\, that you have a hard time believing you haven’t heard it before. The two passages may in fact be one and the same. There are songs that feel destined to soundtrack memories of windows-down road trips\, and those more suited to moments of hushed intimacy. A shadowy synth-pop excursion (“Light of the World”) veers into a candlelit soul ballad (“Shall Be Free”); a chugging garage-rocker (the title track\, naturally) sets up an unexpected detour into slinky disco (“There Goes My Baby”). Delicate Steve’s unmistakable sensibility\, his tone airy yet tactile\, his lines full of poignant bends and whimsical asides\, is a benevolent guide through the ever-shifting landscape\, keeping a steady hand on the wheel no matter the surroundings. He has little interest in showing off\, focusing instead on clarity\, simplicity\, and directness—more like an openhearted pop songwriter than a look-what-I-can-do shredder. \nSEE NIGHT \nIncluded in Bob Boilen’s Favorite Discoveries of 2025\, See Night is the indie-rock project of L.A.-based singer-songwriter Linda Sao\, who’s touring with drummer Cory Aboud for a duo set of cathartic rock and moody ballads infused with shoegaze\, dreampop\, and psych elements. After two self-released EPs\, Pavement’s Bob Nastanovich personally handpicked and released See Night‘s “Eloquence” 7-inch on his Brokers Tip Records. 2025 saw the release of the debut album Just Another Life\, which reflects on the many lives we can lead and leave behind in one lifetime. And like that dynamic between its contrasting themes of leaving and homecoming\, the tracklist itself is an ebb and flow\, from fuzzy-guitar-laden indie rock to orchestral shoegaze to piano instrumentals. Boilen (creator of NPR’s All Songs Considered and Tiny Desk Concerts) named the single “Gravity” one of “30 songs to fall in love with.”
