Hudson Highlands, a suite of seven archival digital prints of painting-journal page-spreads James Lancel McElhinney’s North River project has been published in a limited edition of fifty signed, numbered and dated archival digital prints, loose-bound in a fine cloth-covered clamshell box which also contains a title page, descriptive chapbook and colophon page. The project received support from a generous grant from the Pollock Krasner Foundation. Nearly half the edition was sold prior to publication, via subscription.
Exhibited by Bravin-Lee Programs at Untitled Miami from December 6-10, 2017, Hudson Highlands is now available for purchase. Details below.
James Lancel McElhinney is a visual artist, author, oral historian, and publisher. McElhinney attended Tyler School of Art, Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture and Yale, where he earned an MFA in painting. McElhinney is a recipient of a 2017 Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant, and a visual artist fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts in 1987. McElhinney is listed on the Master Artist Council of the Arthur Miller Foundation. From 1991 to 2003 McElhinney created a series of artworks exploring historic battlefields as flashpoints in new conflicts between historic preservation and commercial development. Since 2005, painting in book-form, has afforded McElhinney greater mobility. Identifying with expeditionary artists such as John-James Audubon, George Catlin and Seth Eastman, McElhinney regards his paintings as interventions, encountering the landschaft as a palimpsest of simultaneous narratives; terrain organized by memory and desire, human activity, conditioned by topography, climate and hydrology. McElhinney has conducted numerous oral history interviews for the Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros, Columbia University Center for Oral History, The Frick Center for the History of Collecting, the Smithsonian Archives of American Art, South Carolina Center for Jewish History, Vermont Studio Center and VoCA: Voices in Contemporary Art. He is the author of numerous articles, essays and books including Classical Life Drawing Studio (2010) and The Visual Language of Drawing (2012), both with Sterling Publishing and Art Students League of New York on Painting, Ten Speed Press, Crown Publishing 2015.
