This Week in History: 50 years back at the Art Museum: Pamela Smith’s occult art unveiled

A 1975 exhibition at the old Princeton University Art Museum, titled “To All Believers: The Art of Pamela Smith,” brought British occult artist Pamela Colman Smith out of obscurity. Smith, best known for illustrating the Rider-Waite-Smith tarot deck in 1909, had largely disappeared from public view after 1920 and died in 1951. The show was curated by Melinda Boyd Parsons, a student of art historian William Innes Homer, and brought to Princeton by museum director Peter Bunnell. The exhibition was covered by student journalist Laurie Kahn, who noted its significance as both occult art and work by a female artist.

What Did Happen or What Might Have Happened or What Can Never Happen. Dustin Hodges by Nick Angelo

Dustin Hodges presents a new body of work across two exhibitions, "Barley Patch" at 15 Orient in New York and "Barley Patch 2" at Sebastian Gladstone in Los Angeles. The artist utilizes thin layers of pigment, color glazing, and distemper on linen to create compositions that superimpose cartoon motifs, such as black crows and characters from the "Arthur" series, over complex grids. His process involves a cyclical layering that drives a wedge between the logic of the image and the materiality of painting, resulting in works that feel both choreographed and visceral.
