​Clarence Boyce Monegar never gave up on his passion to pursue art despite the many obstacles that crossed his path. Monegar was a Native American man born in Wittenberg, Shawano County, on April 10, 1910. His family viewed a career in art as an unreliable source of income. His father discouraged his passion for art and urged him to help provide for the family. Although Monegar’s career in art was not taken seriously by his family, his mother tried to support him when she could. She herself was a lover of art and enjoyed craft.
Monegar found more support for his art at school. For three years he was a student at Parochial Indian School. It was here that his talent was first recognized by the Reverend T. M. Rykken. From there he was sent to Tomah Indian School to advance his skills. Although he was very talented, Monegar was unable to finish school.

Already living in extreme poverty, his family was in dire need of his help after his father’s death. Monegar left high school to provide for his family. During this time, he took a step away from art but always kept his dream in the back of his mind.

After a few years of working miscellaneous, uninspiring jobs, Monegar was itching for more—a life filled with excitement and wonder. He decided to run away with the circus. The next six months of his life were spent pursuing this adventure until he “got the circus out of his system.” Monegar returned home and made a living painting signs. He settled down and married Emma Stacy. She was part of an affluent family that encouraged Monegar’s art. However, this stable life did not last long. His wife became ill and everything spiraled downward. After her passing, Monegar was unable to provide for his four children and was thrown in jail.

He managed to make the best out of his situation, throwing himself into his art. He spent his days in his cell drawing highly detailed wildlife from memory. Art saved his life. The Clark Country did not want his talent to go unnoticed so they allowed Monegar to be released on parole. They drove him straight to John Steuart Curry, founder of the WRAP program, so that his talent would be recognized. Curry was extremely impressed with Monegar’s precision and unique painting style. This encouragement was the very thing Monegar needed to propel him forward into his art career. Although a talented artist his entire life, Monegar truly began to thrive when he saw something in himself.

From there his art career flourished. He became a recognized member of the rural artist community and was able to partially support his family by painting— something he had only previously dreamed of. He showed and sold pieces in the next Rural Art Exhibit and continued to improve his craft. The rest of his years were spent between odd jobs and creating art. He remarried, had more children, and decided to take a few classes at the Chicago Art Institute. Monegar was successful because he never gave up on his dreams. Despite his various hardships in life, he never abandoned his family or his art.

- Racine Art Museum: "Represent: Exploring Portraits from RAM's Collection features pieces that embrace the idea of a portrait as an investigation of character and situation, tangible details, and abstract elements. From self-portraits to works that encapsulate the essence of a subject through metaphor or emotion, these works encourage contemplation about how human beings understand one another as well as the world around them."

https://www.ramart.org/content/represent-exploring-portraits-rams-collection

​- Leigh Yawkey Woodson Art Museum: "Flora, Fauna, Font: Illustrating the Alphabet features Kandis Vermeer Phillips’ illuminated alphabet intertwined with plants, mammals, and insects.

The annual Arts and Cultural Production Satellite Account reported that Wisconsin's arts and cultural production accounts for $9.75 billion of the Wisconsin economy. That is around 3.1% of the state's cumulative economy. The arts and cultural production industries support around 94, 167 jobs, creating $5.6 billion in compensation for creative workers.

Interesting enough, the creative industry employs more Wisconsinites than Wisconsin’s beer jobs (63,000), biotech (35,000) and papermaking (31,000) industries, reported Arts Wisconsin. Arts Wisconsin is "Wisconsin’s community cultural development organization, the only independent statewide organization speaking up and working for the arts, arts education, creative economy, and creative placemaking in every corner of Wisconsin" (Arts Wisconsin website).

“The takeaway is that the creative industry, which ranges from nonprofit organizations to design firms to TV stations, is a force to be reckoned with,” said Anne Katz, director of Arts Wisconsin. “To succeed in the 21st century, Wisconsin needs diversity in its economy. Hopefully, we will continue to be a strong manufacturing and agriculture state, but also a very creative state. We want to make sure that our decision makers know this and that people pay attention that it’s a sector worthy of investment.”

According to the study, Wisconsin’s top five creative and arts industries, measured by the value they add to the economy, are: printed goods manufacturing, other goods manufacturing, custom architectural woodwork and metalwork manufacturing, publishing and construction.

With the volatile nature of our state's economy, Katz maintains taht she's encouraged to see a growing awareness of "creativity as a resource".

​The new piece of sculptural eye candy at the bottom of State Street intersecting Library Mall features sprawling stainless steel panels and a cut out which resembles the sun. The panels have incisions that mimic the movement of shadows. Deliberately, this piece was oriented towards the vernal and autumnal equinox. At night, the piece illuminates with LED lights to catch the gaze of all walking past. 

“Both/And — Tolerance/Innovation” was completed by David Dahlquist and Matt Niebuhr of RDG Dahlquist Studio in Des Moines, Iowa. Dahlquist, his son, and daughter are all alumni of UW. He received an undergraduate degree in arts education here.

“Matt Niebuhr and I have been a public artist team for many years, and we work all over the country and in Canada,” says Dahlquist. “Matt is not only a visual artist; he is an architect, so our experience and expertise come together on projects like this.”

Dahlquist and Niebuhr have been a team for years, working all over North America. Both are visual artists, but Niebuhr is also an architect, which is beneficial in a project like this that deals with city planning, etc. 

Both artists try to focus on story, structure, and site in their sculptural installations. Many hours were put in to photographing the space, walking around and surveying the traffic flow of students and people moving around State Street and Library Mall. “It is uniquely situated,” Dahlquist says of the sculpture, explaining  that the title is about the acceptance of many ideas. This idea is reflected in the space which it sits within, as the site is surrounded by the Wisconsin Historical Society, Memorial Library and three different churches. “It’s really, I think in some ways, what a university is about,” Dahlquist proclaims.

Over the weekend, I was able to visit the Museum of Wisconsin Art for the first time. Currently, they are showing “Among the Wonder of the Dells”, a retrospective exhibition following photography of Wisconsin’s very own “water park capital of the world”. The photography spans the nineteenth to the twenty-first century, using eight different artist’s perspectives to portray the vastly different aspects of tourism in the Dells, shedding light on how humans have shaped the Dells with their versions of relaxation and travel over the decades.

The photographers featured are H.H. Bennett and studio, Leroy J. Gates, John A. Trumble, Dennis Darmek, and three contemporary photographers commissioned by MOWA; Mark Brautigam, Tom Jones, and Kevin J. Miyazaki.

H.H. Bennett (1843-1908) was one of the firsts to photograph the Dells. He was innovative; he created his own cameras, printing presses, stop-action shutter and other necessary equipment. LAter in life, he started to hand-tint his photographs to further bring them to life. His  photography studio was kept within the family until the late twentieth century. Leroy J. Gates (1831-1895) utilized the cartes-de-visite method of photography production, which allows the photographer to expose up to eight images on a single glass plate negative that could be cut out and mounted on cards. This sort of created a trading card economy for family and friends in the Dells at the second half of the nineteenth century.

John A. Trumble was always drawn to the Dells. He grew up around the area. Many of his photographs focus on the geology and Native American ancestry of the Dells, which are fundamental to the iconography of the tourist area. His photos evoke mom-and-pop nostalgia for many. Dennis Darmek started photographing his wife swimming at the start of their relationship in 1979. He focuses on the appeal of aquatic adventure and recreation, which has come to shape the Dells in last decades of the twentieth century.

Tom Jones, one of the MOWA commissioned artists, is a member of the Ho-Chunk Nation of Wisconsin. The Ho-Chunk have strong connections to the Dells, and Jones plays on this connection through his photographs. He seeks to display the indomitable spirit of his tribe and their never-ending, important presence in the Dells. Mark Brautigam, another commissioned MOWA photographer, oscillate between people and place. Brautigam has described them as a “more than a pause than an exclamation point”. The tranquility of his photographs comes across, which is in stark contrast to the bustling nature of waterparks. The final commissioned photographer, Kevin J. Miyazaki, set up his studio within H.H. Bennett’s old space. He invited people who walked by to have their portraits taken, and encouraged them not to smile to honor the old tradition of portraits in early history, as one did not have their picture taken constantly.

Information will be sent out in the coming weeks regarding the 2019 State Day Conference and Exhibition being held in Madison at the Pyle Center. We appreciate you all for being so patient with us as we pull together all of this information!

Angela Johnson, WRAP Director, and myself (Abi Case, student assistant to WRAP Director) had the opportunity to take a tour through the newest temporary exhibit at the Wisconsin Veterans Museum. It is titled “In My Spare Moments: The Art of Harold Schmitz” and curated by Yvette Pino, whom gave us the tour.

Yvette Pino spent the last three years researching and planning this exhibit. Along with working at the Veterans Museum, Yvette is apart of the Veteran Art Movement, “a decentralized network of veterans and service members committed to making art and using creative practices to transform themselves and a society grappling with endless war, militarism and dehumanization.” She is a practicing print and painting artist, whose most recent work involves the examination Native American imagery themes while trying to reinterpret them through Illuminated Manuscript appropriation. Yvette constructs her artistic pieces from “experiences in Iraq as a deployed soldier and overlap with symbols of her [my] Catholic upbringing in New Mexico”. Here is a link to her personal website: http://yvettempino.com/ and the Veteran Art Movement’s page: https://www.veteran-art-movement.net/

Harold Schmitz was a World War II veteran from Milwaukee. He attended the Layton School of Art (now the Milwaukee Institute of Design and Art) from 1934-1937 to study advertisement design. After graduation, he was employed by the Hammersmith-Kortmeyer Company, an engraving and printing agency. Because of his experience with printmaking, he was hand selected as a topographical draftsmen in the South Pacific, specifically New Caledonia. He started his service in November of 1942, and began to paint the landscape of Noumea Harbor with colored pencils and graphite. In his words, these were the most practical mediums. As time passes, his fascination with the surroundings subsidizes and many of his drawings emulate Hollywood magazine illustration styles. Harold Schmitz’s art reflects a different side of conflict, one that oscillates between personal art production and mandated service. In his spare moments, he was able to shine light on his life on service.

We touched on the Wisconsin Idea while on our tour. Yvette said “Wisconsin artists and veterans are able to go to that experience, which is global conflict, document it, bring it back and communicate it to the community.” Through the implementation of the G. I. Bill, veterans are able to go back to school and become instructors, teachers, professors. Yvette emphasizes the “impetus to serve” that returning veterans feel for their community. They have encountered a breadth of life many haven’t, and search for a way to process their experience through service to the community. Yvette mentions specifically the Veteran Print Project, which pairs veterans with printmakers to exchange a dialogue that will result in an edition of prints made based off of the conversation. They have collaborated with Combat Paper which takes material from uniforms, breaks it down, and processes it to paper for use. 

Link to their website: http://veteranprintproject.com/

“In My Spare Moments: The Art of Harold Schmitz” will be open until summer of 2020. The Wisconsin Veterans Museum is open Tuesday through Saturday 9:00 am to 4:30 pm, and Sunday (April-September) 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm. The address is 30 W. Mifflin St., Madison, WI 53703. Their phone is 608-267-1799.

Again, thanks to Yvette Pino and Karen Burch for the awesome tour and information! Make sure to check it out.

This will act as an archive for upcoming WRAP workshops. We plan on starting with this year, and carrying on for many to come.

Mary Betzenderfer was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota but lived in Wisconsin for a majority of her life. Throughout her childhood, she entertained herself with music and painting. She graduated from the University of Iowa in occupational therapy, but continued to continued to study art and emphasized her focus on portraits. Betzenderfer has been noted for a style that reflects light and color in floral landscapes and wildlife depictions. ​

February is Black History Month, a time to pay tribute to generations of African Americans who struggled with adversity to achieve fully accepted citizenship in American society. Black History Month began as Negro History Week, it was only a week long in February which coincided with Frederick Douglass's and Abraham Lincoln's birth dates. Carter G. Woodson, a Harvard-educated historian is credited with the creation of Negro History Week. In 1976, President Gerald R. Ford expanded the week into a month, to "seize the opportunity to honor the too-often neglected accomplishments of black Americans in every area of endeavor throughout our history.” 

Throughout history, art serves as a communicative tool to express injustices, culture, and ideas. Many times when words are not heard, art is seen. This proves true for Milwaukee artist, Della Wells. Wells struggled to process certain aspects from her youth, a schizophrenic mother and stern father. When she was 18 or 19, she sat at a bus stop across from The Gallery Toward the Black Aesthetic at 4th and Garfield. She peered in the windows for weeks and finally entered when someone invited her in. Her eyes were open to the world of art. This was her first exposure to black and female artists. 

Wells has been working to return the favor her whole life- educating people on the history of African-American art in Milwaukee, and throughout Wisconsin. Many of the great galleries, publications, and meeting places of the Black Art Movement did not persist like in other cities. Wells actively works to unearth and educate people on the thriving artist community and remind them that it still exists. 

Wells has since had her pieces purchased by the Smithsonian and participated in major art fairs such as the Kentuck Festival of the Arts, had gallery representation, and collaborated on a play inspired by her life. 

Celebrating Black History Month, through many mediums such as art, serves as a way to remind everyone that black history is our collective history. It is important to honor and preserve African American art and learn about African American history which is the heartbeat of American history.

Make sure to check out your local museums, libraries, and community centers to see how they are celebrating Black History Month.

 The Madison office will focus on the three following initiatives working towards a creative and focused 79th year of WRAP.
 
1. Build capacity for more participants to attend WRAP workshops and state day/s, spread awareness of this rich and historic program and work to diversify participants.
Here are a few ways we are doing this:

• Continue with our quarterly newsletter, Facebook page, and blog
• Grow new WRAP programs (3 new potential WRAP regional sites in the works for 2020)
• Looking to foster relationships in areas of the state that do not currently have WRAP’s and make connections with local art clubs and organizations
• Ongoing outreach to UW system schools for students to learn about WRAP
• Ongoing outreach to branch libraries to promote regional workshops specific to their regions
• Partner with the Wisconsin Academy of Sciences Arts and Letters who put out the quarterly Wisconsin People and Ideas magazine – a box of complimentary  magazines will be sent to each regional site before each workshop to be passed out to participants. The magazine shares articles and stories that embody the Wisconsin Idea around our state including articles on mid-career artists and photo journal essays
• Partner with Arts Wisconsin to have visibility and a table at the annual Arts Day event in Madison
• Conversation with the Chazen about having docent led tours during state day that highlight the work of John Steuart Curry and Aaron Bohrod in their permanent collection

 
Like us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/WisconsinRegionalArts/) and share arts news you find interesting. Your word of mouth is our most productive outreach!
 
2. Support regional coordinators with small changes to website to navigate how the toolkit can be best utilized.

• I have been scheduling phone and some in person conversations with coordinators to find out from their standpoint what is going well, what can be improved and suggestions for how that might be accomplished
• Small changes coming in the next few months to the website to the coordinator toolkit -  make it more intuitive and user friendly. Perhaps a short video/s that live in the toolkit and condensing some of the PDF’s

 
3. Work to make the WRAP permanent collection more visible
Did you know we have a fantastic permanent collection that was started by John Steuart Curry almost 80 years ago? Many of the pieces are currently on view in the Continuing Studies building on campus. We are looking to:

• Formally organize the space that permanent collection (not currently on view) lives in

(possibly storage space on casters)

• Researching possible venues in which to showcase the work
• Requested a Service Learning in Art student from UW-Madison to work with us this semester to help move initiative #3 along
