\"Michelle<\/a>
\u201cI\u2019m more fluid with paint,\u201d UWM alumna, artist and curator Michelle Grabner says of her work.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Contemporary conceptual artist, curator and double UWM alumna Michelle Grabner returns to INOVA on March 31 to discuss one of the biggest moments of her career so far. It\u2019s three stories tall and it opened on March 8, yet it\u2019s consumed much of Grabner\u2019s last 18 months, drawn her into more than 120 studios nationwide, and is open through May 25. She\u2019ll discuss it all during her talk \u201cCurating the Whitney Biennial 2014,\u201d on Monday, March 31 at 6:30 p.m.<\/p>\n

But first things first, as you\u2019d come to expect from an artist and curator who\u2019s as Midwestern modest as she is high profile.<\/p>\n

\"Michelle<\/a>

\u201cI default, always, to \u2018Hi. I\u2019m an artist and writer who lives and works in Chicago,\u2019\u201d Grabner has said of her self-propelled, eclectic, domestic practice as artist, educator and curator.<\/p>\n

In winter 2012, Grabner sat down for a lengthy interview with UWM Alumni magazine at her home in Chicago, where she is a professor of painting and drawing at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Concurrently, she directs The Suburban, a studio and art space that brings artists and buyers together in her Oak Park, Ill., backyard. With husband and colleague Brad Killam she owns and directs the sprawling Poor Farm artists\u2019 space in Little Wolf, Wis.<\/p>\n

Then there\u2019s the Whitney Biennial, an every-two-years survey of contemporary American art that draws devotees and detractors to the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York City.<\/p>\n

In fall 2012, Grabner was one of a trio of curators hand picked to curate the final biennial in the museum\u2019s current Madison Avenue location, biennial no. 77. She joined Stuart Comer of London\u2019s Tate Modern and Anthony Elms of the Philadelphia Institute of Contemporary Art in the task of seeking, selecting and curating some of the best in contemporary American art. Each curator was given one floor and free rein. Grabner got the fourth floor.<\/p>\n

\u201cViewers of the Whitney are really going to get a sense of what represents contemporary American art,\u201d Grabner explained in a 2012 interview with UWM Alumni magazine. \u201cBut what I really like is that the idea of curating will also be content in the show. One can see three different takes and realize curators and curating is vast, and one could do the biennial many times over and do different takes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Grabner\u2019s curatorial qualifications made her a unique and perhaps unexpected choice for the assignment. Like her Whitney colleagues, she\u2019s a relative outsider to the New York arts scene.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Whitney selected me because I\u2019m an artist and I think differently,\u201d she said. \u201cBut I also see this as an extraordinary opportunity to bring curating to the fore, as well as art practice.\u201d<\/p>\n

When it comes to curating, Grabner is blunt about recent trends she considers harmful to the profession.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve called curating a lazy profession, but I\u2019m talking about a very new kind of curating where curators are not doing the hard work of getting into studios anymore,\u201d she said. \u201cThey\u2019re selecting JPEGS. They\u2019re not having conversations with artists the way curators in the past have.\u201d<\/p>\n

Appleton to UWM to Big Apple<\/b><\/p>\n

Though she\u2019s been in Chicago for many years, Grabner remains a friend to UWM. She was here in 2012 for \u201cMichelle Grabner: The INOVA Survey.\u201d Much of her family still lives in Wisconsin. She remembers her time at UWM fondly, vividly. She arrived here in 1980 from her hometown high school, Appleton East, pursuing an art education and Plan B as an art teacher.<\/p>\n

UWM arts faculty made it a practice to send students into the city: Milwaukee Art Museum and Lynden Sculpture Garden. \u201cThere\u2019s something so real about Milwaukee, where the university doesn\u2019t define the entire city so one gets a whole range of interesting cultures,\u201d Grabner said.<\/p>\n

Her best UWM memories include a class canoe expedition to the Boundary Waters with Professor Tom Uttech; a midtown Italian feast after Professor Adolph Rosenblatt\u2019s show in NYC; a gallery stop in Cleveland on the way back to UWM.<\/p>\n

She earned a master\u2019s degree in Art History in 1987, digging deep into feminist theory and criticism at the Center for 20th Century Studies, now the Center for 21st<\/sup> Century Studies. Her career plans evolved to embrace a future in higher education.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are so many artists in the world and so few of them make a living selling their artwork,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd I think that\u2019s a fine thing. There\u2019s a huge advantage to making sure the bills are paid, that you have health care. Find another way to take care of yourself and not put pressure on the studio.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the late \u201980s, this meant a K-12 teaching appointment in Milwaukee. She then moved on to UW-Madison. This rapid mobility as a working artist and academic surprised no one at her alma mater.<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone who worked with Michelle when she was at the Peck School is very glad to have played a small role in guiding and mentoring a stellar artist who has been so successful in creating a community of artists wherever she goes, and managing her own work and career successfully,\u201d said Peck School Art & Design Professor Leslie Vansen.<\/p>\n

\u201cMichelle is an incredibly generous personality, eagerly curious, very knowledgeable, both flexible and demanding in her own studio practice.\u201d<\/p>\n

Buyers, artists come calling<\/b><\/p>\n

Spend just a couple of hours in Grabner\u2019s home studio and, whether you\u2019re a contemporary-art know-nothing or an avid buyer, you will agree.<\/p>\n

Arrive for an interview around the holidays and she offers you fresh-baked peanut-butter balls. Ask about her bibliography and she\u2019ll talk, briefly, about her struggles with writing as a \u201csuper-dyslexic\u201d person. She\u2019s won awards for teaching, writing, painting, but who knows where they\u2019re hanging. During that winter 2012 interview, her studio walls were uncluttered: just a few samples of her work, posters of Aaron Rodgers and Barack Obama, select notes and drawings from her daughter \u2013 the much-youngest of Grabner\u2019s three children.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It was a heady time for the artist and curator, coming just a few weeks after the New York Times publicized the 2014 curatorial team.<\/p>\n

Email messages and JPEGs from artists nationwide crashed her account. Packages began arriving on her doorstep.<\/p>\n

Galleries from Milwaukee to Chicago to Zurich went into \u201cpure liquidation mode,\u201d selling every Grabner piece they had. Her work is most easily described as painting, but veers closer to conceptual art. One canvas in her studio is a perfect circle \u2013 black with a gentle grey pattern from afar. Get closer, and you\u2019ll insist you\u2019re looking at a woven rug mounted on the wall.<\/p>\n

And it\u2019s better if you can describe her work for yourself. The artist probably won\u2019t do it for you.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m uncomfortable talking about my work,\u201d Grabner has said. \u201cWhether it\u2019s modesty or being Midwestern, it\u2019s real. I can talk about other people\u2019s work.\u201d<\/p>\n

But she can talk about Milwaukee, a city whose earnestness and midsize status make it a great place for the arts and artists, she has said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think in Milwaukee one actually has a lot more freedom to move around and to invent and interface with culture and one\u2019s own work in one\u2019s own studio practice.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cChicago, being a large city and a \u2018second city\u2019 in relation to New York, there\u2019s a lot of energy spent here trying to define Chicago in comparison to New York or LA. In Milwaukee, Cleveland or St. Louis, you don\u2019t seem to do that.\u201d<\/p>\n
