Donald Judd: The Multicolored Works

Every Wed., Sat. until January 4

Color, or lack thereof, is a constant contemplation in all works of art. Artists often have complicated relationships with and views on the presenc...

By Jessica Baran | Thu, April 18, 2013

Tracking the elusive arc of love from aspirational idealism to all-too-real dissolution, this ambitious three-venue exhibition (Lagos, Nigeria; Houston, Texas; and St. Louis) engages contemporary artists across cultures to investigate its... More »
Sounds Like Love/

By Alison Sieloff | Thu, February 14, 2013

In a particularly sweet spot in Grand Center, the one that's held down by the Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts and the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis, there's a bit of a yin-yang thing going on during this, the most love- and chocolate-filled... More »

In the Galleries - In the Still Epiphany CLOSES October 27 at the Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts

By Jessica Baran | Thu, October 25, 2012

New York-based Gedi Sibony translates his celebrated stock in trade — spare, elegant installations of found objects — into a curatorial strategy, selecting artworks from the Pulitzer family's collection and installing them in the Foundation's... More »

2012 | Best Museum Exhibition (Fine Art Division)

Contemplative serenity was made manifest in this exquisite collection of perfectly appointed Buddhist artifacts, spanning centuries of sacred tradition and cultural history. Curated by Francesca Herndon-Consagra, the exhibit operated like an expertly played piano sonata: Every individual (visual) note rang crisp, the mind and gaze were compelled in unexpected directions, and the concerted whole resolved as a deep and resonant chord. In the Pulitzer building, which Tadao Ando designed with... More »
2010 | Best Museum

The Pulitzer Foundation for the Arts stays true to its name: "arts," plural. The curators are nothing if not multidisciplinary, incorporating poetry readings, theater and musical performances into exhibits of visual art. "Incorporate" is the right term; the foundation's mission has always been to blend the work on display with the building's architecture, and to direct the viewer's thinking to the community beyond the museum's walls. The result is a space that continually changes, cared for... More »
2009 | Best Museum

The building, designed by Pritzker Prize-winning architect Tadao Ando, is gorgeous. The exhibitions are rigorous and pitch-perfect, and often deal with light and space, capitalizing on Ando's minimal but essentialist design (witness this past year's Light Project, Dan Flavin: Constructed Light and Ideal (Dis)Placements: Old Masters at the Pulitzer). It's pure curation, generous and exacting (there's no text on the wall or supplemental material; just the implicit, elemental directive to look... More »
2002 | Best New Building

First, an honorable mention goes to the Schmidt Art Center on the campus of Southwestern Illinois College in Belleville. A small jewel of a space out near the cornfields, the Schmidt is well worth the trip out to the end of the MetroLink line.But let's face it: As much as we like to award recognition to the least-expected, the building Emily Pulitzer's money built in Midtown can't be designated an also-ran, no matter how snarly our inclinations. The first great work of architecture of the... More »
2002 | Best Place to See the Sky

From the outside, Richard Serra's Cor-Ten-steel masterpiece "Joe" appears to list a bit to one side, like a stylish woman's hat or the prow of a ship. The sculpture is the vibrant stroke of burnished orange that glows next to the concrete Ando building and the gray-graveled ground. Step inside, and the walls teeter over you and the spiral passageway appears to contract and expand. In a certain light, they glow like desert-canyon walls. 'Round you go, touching the steel, which turns... More »
