Recent and new collaborative works in drawing, printmaking, photography, and video by Angela Bartram and Lee Deigaard


The animal and being animal is a proposition and position that invites observational and critical debate. To observe the non-human animal is too often tense and politicized; to take on an understated what-it-is-to-be-animal is a sensitized and sensitive means to understand differing perspectives. Artists Lee Deigaard (USA) and Angela Bartram (UK) critically approach the animal as the animal. Using diverse methods and materials and curious to potentialities, they explore working as humans from an animal-centric perspective. They bring sensitivities to their handling of the animal as both artistic subject and collaborator, of behaving as animal, in order to observe and engage with empathy and openness to the unexpected, to animal insight and revelation. Iterative long term projects in drawing and printmaking foreground proximity and proprioceptive, nearly devotional studio and caretaking practices centering on respiration and companionate movement within a global pandemic. This exhibition explores the socialized and familiar in close observation, directly and indirectly, in their individual yet companion practices and additionally features the artists in conversation and active collaboration on site in the gallery.

Stout appeared on three albums with the Four Freshmen, two of which were produced and engineered by Stout. His television credits include The Charles Grodin Show, CBS Sunday Morning and 50 years Fresh, a PBS special which aired in summer 1999 and featured Maureen McGovern. International appearances include “Tamouri's World Of Music” variety show in Japan, and “Tribute to Stan Kenton”, a German television special from Berlin,Germany. His latest two CD's as a co-leader have been critically acclaimed, the first of which, Good Pals, climbed to #23 on the Jazzweek charts, and “Up Jazz Creek” is poised to continue this trend. His melodic improvisations, and an unusually extended high register mark Kevin's unique sound.
