Previously located on Front Street in Uptown Kingston, NY, see what Pinkwater Gallery is up to in its new home on Fair Street within Kingston Social, and soon to celebrate its one year anniversary. Delighted to have a new body of work in there currently. This photo snap from 2021 - a monotype that sold at the gallery and happily in someone’s collection since then. • Monotype • 14.5x12 plate on Rives BFK • framed size 28x22 • created @_woodstockschoolofart printmaking studio. • #monotype #printmaking #hudsonvalleyartist #contemporaryart #colorabstraction #abstractart #contemporaryprintmaking #abstractprintmaking #artonpaper #colorabstraction #geometricart #geometricabstraction #artforinteriors #susannaronner #livewithart #worksonpaper #abstractmonotype @pinkwatergallery @kingstonsocialny

Yay, a new logo is born!! - for the amazing Martina Enschede, Dutch native, and her newly renamed practice as ‘Dutchess Pilates’. Martina is an exceptional, excellent and intuitive guide with Pilates and NKT (Neuro Kinetic Therapy) and the unique way she combines these modalities. I know of how incredible she is as I’ve been working with her since she first arrived in the Hudson Valley (about 20 years). So it’s my pure delight to have designed this for her (and a website will be on the way soon too), and to launch her new name and in a new location. • #pilates #hudsonvalleyny #nkt #logodesign #branding #makeitbeautiful #healingarts #graphicdesign #designerandartist @womeninbusiness #fitness #logodesigner #logotypedesign

Repost from @davidzwirner • Ruth Asawa: Retrospective, an in-depth look at Asawa’s groundbreaking practice, opens Saturday, April 5, at @SFMOMA. This major exhibition, the first posthumous traveling retrospective of the artist’s work, kicks off in @RuthAsawaOfficial’s longtime home: San Francisco. Learn more via the link in bio. Asawa’s signature looped-wire sculptures will share gallery space with lesser-known works that bring insight into the relentlessly experimental nature of her artistic vision. In addition to her own work, the exhibition will include a select number of works by peers and mentors with whom Asawa engaged in creative dialogue, including Josef Albers and Imogen Cunningham. —⁣⁣⁣⁣ Ruth Asawa making wire sculptures, November 1954.

‘In Quietude’ series #133 - 2020 - the silver lining of not having access to the printmaking studio during the pandemic, revitalized my relationship with mixed media collage, making one a day till I got to #200.

Truth! That is, if you are designer committed to creating beautiful work. Saul Bass, the great - in his own words. • What defines great design? In this video, we hear from the legendary Saul Bass in a 1986 interview with Archie Boston. Saul Bass was one of the most influential American graphic designers of the twentieth century. Renowned for his work in motion picture title sequences, corporate logos, and movie posters, he revolutionized title design in film. Over his four-decade career, he set new standards in graphic design and even won an Academy Award for his exceptional work. #saulbass #graphicdesignhistory #designtips

From 2021, and sold at Pinkwater Gallery. It was a sweet story [as retold by gallerist Anne Sanger] - as a couple came in and she expressed to her husband how much she liked this piece - and later, unbeknownst to her, he bought it for her as a gift. Designer in me also created a folding card with the art image on the front, plus envelope, that he gave her first, followed by the framed art. At its best, the art we create continues to spread happiness to others. That’s quite special. • • Monotype • 16x20 plate on Rives BFK printmaking paper • framed size 28x22 • created @_woodstockschoolofart printmaking studio • #monotype #printmaking #hudsonvalleyartist #contemporaryart #colorabstraction #abstractart #contemporaryprintmaking #abstractprintmaking #artonpaper #colorabstraction #geometricart #geometricabstraction #artforinteriors #susannaronner #livewithart #artbringsjoy #abstractmonotype @pinkwatergallery

Happy birthday Yayoi Kusama • Repost from @omer_tiroche_gallery • Happy birthday to 𝗬𝗮𝘆𝗼𝗶 𝗞𝘂𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗮, who was born today in 1929! Yayoi Kusama is a Japanese contemporary artist known for her diverse oeuvre spanning sculpture, installation, painting, and more. Rooted in conceptualism, her work integrates elements of feminism, surrealism, and minimalism, infused with personal narratives. Celebrated globally, she’s acclaimed as Japan’s foremost artist, influencing peers like Andy Warhol. Despite grappling with mental health challenges, Kusama’s prolific output, from the 1950s to the present, continues to captivate audiences worldwide, serving as a profound outlet for her struggles and a testament to the enduring power of art.

Repost from @susannaronner_art • Repost from @philophilia • How do you see Picasso? “It is these sculptures that would lead Kahnweiler [Picasso’s dealer] to write of ‘drawings in space.’ He would also describe them as a first step toward something that, until then, only architecture had achieved: the actual ‘creation of spaces.’” It’s interesting to consider that Picasso, working in the first few decades of the 20th century, may have prefigured a whole generation of American sculptors achieving prominence in the 50’s and 60’s, like David Smith and Richard Serra, who also approached “space” as a medium unto itself.

Yay, a new catalogue is born! For Artist/Quilter Pamela Loewen - and the inaugural exhibit of the gallery she founded - Loewen Gallery. The gallery is a first of its kind, dedicated exclusively to the art of the Quilt — with her own ‘Garden Series’, accompanied by a catalogue of works in this upcoming exhibit, which I was delighted to design. Featuring other Artist/Quilters is on the calendar for this year and already into next. “We believe in promoting quilt making as an art form, fostering connections between artists, and providing a space for artists to grow and develop in the quilt making medium.” The exhibit opens April 25th - August 9. Good wishes for a great Opening and launch of this new gallery in Williamston, MI. | The catalogue features a wonderful essay by Petra Fallaux @petrafallaux • #quiltmaking #quilters #abstractquilts #artcatalogue #artcatalog #designerartist #designforartists #designforthearts #williamstonmi #nancycrow #pamelaloewen @loewenstudioandgallery • see more artist catalogues at susannaronner.com [Artist + Exhibit Catalogs]

Repost from @calderfoundation • In 2015, Tate Modern, London (@tate), presented Alexander Calder: Performing Sculpture, exploring how the artist transformed sculpture from a static object into a continually changing work to be experienced in real time. “His works perform in the sense that they accomplish and bring to pass,” Penelope Curtis writes in the exhibition catalogue. “They pull us toward them, round them and into them ... they absorb into themselves the movement and the passage of time.” The sound-making hanging mobile Streetcar from the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago (@artinstitutechi) featured in the show.     Image: Streetcar (1951), brass, sheet metal, rod, wire, and paint. © 2025 Calder Foundation, New York / Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York    #Calder #AlexanderCalder #CalderFoundation

Really delighted to be showing this new body of work - the ‘Over Under’ series, at @pinkwatergallery, in its new location within Kingston Social on Fair Street, in Uptown Kingston’s Stockade District. Shown here is one of four in the series up on its wall. Having had a long relationship with Pinkwater Gallery, it is special to once again be invited to have work in its current À LA MAISON concept, and alongside the work of a wonderful group of artists. It’s aim, as gallerist Anne Sanger expressed, is to present “an ongoing, ever-evolving collection of art for the home, at a variety of price points, making it easier to start or continue to build an art collection...Our other objective is to introduce you to the incredible artists in our area…” I hope you pop in there - the cappuccino aromas wafting in the air, adds to its very welcoming vibe. • ‘Over Under’ #5 | Mixed Media | 28x22 Rives BFK paper with 20x16 plate impression of monotype, with acrylic gouache painted over. • #worksonpaper # #contemporaryart #paintingonpaper #colorabstraction #abstractart  #artonpaper #geometricart #geometricabstraction #livewithart #susannaronner #artistdesigner #womanartist #colorshapecomposition #painting #improvisational #pinkwatergallery #kingstonsocial #uptownkingstonny @kingstonsocialny

I have been visualizing, yearning, pondering, desiring, to get larger with mixed media collage and finally landed on something today, which I can now see will grow into a series (yet to be named) - 20x16.

Happy birthday, David Smith. • Repost from @davidsmithestate • David Smith’s Song of the Landscape (1950) is featured in ‘Drawing without Paper: Selections from The Met Collection’ in the Gioconda and Joseph King Gallery (Gallery 916) @metmuseum Song of the Landscape is presented alongside works by Gego, Ruth Asawa, Zarina, Sheila Hicks, Alexander Calder, Dorothea Rockburne, Richard Tuttle, Ana Mendieta, Dennis Oppenheim, Liliana Poster, Oscar Muñoz, and Richard Long. Each work reveals the inventive ways these artists found to employ line through unconventional means such as stitching, weaving, or abandoning a support altogether and “drawing in space” with sculptural elements and shadow.  “By exploring notions of transparency and weightlessness with lines and forms,” curator Iria Candela writes, artists such as Smith, Asawa, Calder, and Gego “redefined how sculpture interacts with the surrounding environment. Other artists complicated the definition of drawing by experimenting with line, materiality, process, and even the outdoor landscape.”  __ David Smith. Song of the Landscape.

My relationship with Pinkwater Gallery began in December 2019 when artist/gallerist Anne Sanger invited me to be in an exhibit she was creating, early in the life of the new gallery. The exhibit, ‘Monotype Modern’ - a three person exhibit also included Joan Ffolliott and Wendy Stefanelli, and opened March 2020. That grew into a long, and rewarding relationship with the gallery and Anne, through thick and thin (ah, the pandemic) as a ‘collective’ of artists. Happily, my work has remained in Anne’s scope and I’m delighted to be bringing a new body of work - ‘Over Under’ into Pinkwater Gallery in its new abode as part of Kingston Social (which also includes Helena Palazzi [from the former ‘collective’] and Samara Daly). I appreciate that Anne and Pinkwater Gallery, continue to reinvent itself in various ways, and open to exploring what it presents - much like we do as artists with our own creative process. Do pop in to see this and the other great work on its walls. (Did I say there is also authentic Italian pastries and cappuccino, courtesy of Swedish/Italian Helena, and a great array of curated mercantile from the eye of Samara). • ‘Over Under’ series • Mixed Media | 28x22 Rives BFK paper with 20x16 plate impression of monotype, with acrylic gouache painted over. • #worksonpaper # #contemporaryart #paintingonpaper #colorabstraction #abstractart  #artonpaper #geometricart #geometricabstraction #livewithart #susannaronner #artistdesigner #womanartist #colorshapecomposition #painting #improvisational #pinkwatergallery #kingstonsocialny #uptownkingstonny @pinkwatergallery @kingstonsocialny @helenapalazzi @samaradaly

‘Over Under’ series, now at Pinkwater Gallery / Kingston Social. One of five works in the new À LA MAISON collection at the gallery… • “As we round the corner on winter and head soon into spring in the #hudsonvalley, we introduce a new collection of art in the gallery this week. For those of you who remember @pinkwatergallery, the À LA MAISON concept will be familiar. Back in the days when the gallery resided on N. Front Street, it seemed that introducing folks to art can be a challenge because of the intimidation factor. And yes, coming into a space that is strictly an art gallery can be really daunting! So we always showed art in a homelike setting and made it as easy and welcoming as possible to discover and buy art for the home. Now that we have settled into our new home at Kingston Social, more and more of you are experiencing the joy of art in the everyday. What we aim to do with À LA MAISON is to host an ongoing, ever-evolving collection of art for the home, at a variety of price points, making it easier to start or continue to build an art collection in your own home. Our other objective is to introduce you to the incredible artists in our area, like those in the current exhibition @danamcclure @dianemoroff_collages @annelgabriele @kristinosterberg @susannaronner_art and others.

Repost from @calderfoundation • In 1944, Calder’s friend Agnes Rindge Claflin complained to him that she had nothing to wear to the upcoming Christmas party at Vassar College (@vassarcollege), where she was the director of the art gallery and a professor in the art history department. Claflin subsequently received a handmade tiara from Calder along with a sketch detailing how it should be worn. The headpiece, which Calder dubbed Fire Proof Veil, is constructed of a series of sheet metal letters, “A, R, V, C, P, N, Y,” each dangling from its own wire attached to a central headband. The letters stand for “Agnes Rindge Vassar College Poughkeepsie New York” and are designed to hang in front of the wearer’s face.      Image: Fire Proof Veil (1944), sheet tin and steel wire. © 2024 Calder Foundation, New York / Artists Rights Society (ARS), New York    #Calder #AlexanderCalder #CalderFoundation

The group of mainly paintings in various media explores the transition that work can engage in over time, while keeping close to the core of subject-matter, process, and viewpoint. Martin Weinstein has painted interiors and exteriors in direct contact with his subjects since the 1980s– carefully observing the changes of light, season, or time of day impactful to his compositions. • @lichtundfire #lichtundfire @msweinst #martinweinstein #painting #pastel #acrylicpainting #oilpainting #exhibition #artexhibition #gallery #galleryexhibition #newyorkgallery #newyorkartist #newyorkart #art #artist #curator #artcurator #les #lowereastside #lowereastsidenyc #conceptualart #landscapepainting #interiorpainting #newyorkgalleries #artgallery #worksonpaper #talk #panel #artisttalk #conversation

Sad for the passing of artist Jayne Quick-to-See Smith, who I first became familiar with when designing a poster series that now resides in the Smithsonian - the series was for longtime design client Bread and Roses - the cultural arm of Union 1199/NYC (later absorbed into SEIU). The series, ‘Native American Women of Hope’ featured 12 pivotal women from around the country, and accompanied by a study guide for classrooms. More about this series and a photo of the poster at a future juncture. • Repost from @abqmuseum • Jaune Quick-to-See Smith 1940–2025 Albuquerque Museum mourns the passing of Jaune Quick-to-See Smith. A citizen of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Nation, Jaune was a great artist, mentor, curator, and supporter of so many artists and young scholars. Her impact was immense, and she will be deeply missed. See her work in the collection on the Collections / e-museum page in our LinkTree.

Repost from @calderfoundation • In the early 1940s, Calder created a new series of open form sculptures made of carved wood and wire. The primarily static works were designed with unusual installations in mind, often mounted up high on a wall or perched on a tabletop. “They had a suggestion of some kind of cosmic nuclear gases—which I won’t try to explain,” Calder said. “I was interested in the extremely delicate, open composition.” James Johnson Sweeney and Marcel Duchamp proposed the name “constellations” for these works. Vertical Constellation with Bomb, seen here, is in the collection of the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.
