James Welling (Aperture) is a sensationally attractive book. It was published to coincide with a large survey exhibition of the artist’s work from the 1970s through 2012 that opened at the Cincinnati Art Museum and traveled to the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, where I caught up with it. The main text by James Crump, is an exemplary account of Welling’s career to date: It proceeds in chronological order, series by series, with unflagging intellegence and critical acumen.
What gives Monograph its special allure are the 250 technically superb illustrations in black-and-white and color, which offer a brilliant tour d’horizon of Welling’s remarkably inventive, multifarious, often lyrically beautiful production. No one persuing this dazzling and substantial book could possibly doubt that Welling ranks among the foremost photographic artits in the world today.–Michael Fried”Artforum” (12/01/2014)
It had to happen someday.
Wednesday evening, longtime Cincinnati Ballet artistic director Victoria Morgan announced that she will retire at the end of the 2021-22 season, her 25th year at the head of the company. Given Morgan’s continued vitality and enthusiasm for the position, the announcement, made as part of the company’s annual meeting, came as something of a surprise. But 25 years is an unusually long time to lead any company, let alone one demanding such a constant outpouring of creativity.
“I’m a big believer in that old adage about going out on top,” said Morgan. “The company is about to move into a new building and we’re financially stable. So I don’t have to worry about the health of the company. The years that I’ve been here have been intense and full of passion and joy and love. I’m a happy camper.”
