Welcome to the Spring Semester 2014 at the Sedona Arts Center’s School of the Arts. Our programming in the arts is expanding in ways that create new interaction and connection between our students and art lovers with accomplished artists and the creative process itself.

Sedona Art Retreats are an example of creative programming that is deeply participatory. The nature of the retreats assures that each participant has a unique, creative and personal experience of their own even while being guided in an intimate group situation. See page 4 for descriptions and visit the retreat page on our website to explore options for customizing art retreats for groups or individuals.

PhotoFest 2014 represents an expanded program of seminars over two days with top national talent delivering educational and inspiring state-of-the-art content. One day of this programming is FREE to the public thanks to support from Canon, Adobe and the City of Sedona. Delve deeper with a one- or two-day intensive workshop. See page 11 for details.

The Spirit of Sedona is a new kind of educational event taking place over the Memorial Day weekend—a three-day interactive exhibition with presentations, poetry readings and demonstrations in a full spectrum of media and all FREE to the public! Just walking through this event will be educational and inspiring. See page 9 for details.

Raku Revolution is an immersive experience focusing on the spontaneous beauty of raku ceramics. The week-long event features a special exhibition of internationally known raku artists, a raku firing and a traditional tea ceremony. Delve deeper with a two-day intensive raku workshop with Jim Romberg and Patrick Shia Crabb. See page 12 for details.

Tuition: $650

The Sedona Art Retreats offer a unique tour of self-discovery as you explore a world of creative possibilities.

Self Discovery RetreatKath Gilliam and Libby Caldwell Apr 26–27, May 10–11, 2014

What if there were no barriers to your creative potential? Creative blocks can manifest as the need for perfection, the power of distraction or perhaps even a fear of failure . . . or success. This unique retreat teaches you to transform your resistance, by combining the wisdom of the nine-pointed personality system known as the Enneagram, with a unique creative project. Join Libby Caldwell artist, teacher and creative journaling expert and Kath Gilliam, management consultant and skilled Enneagram counselor, for this journey of self-discovery. Tuition $500

Shape Into ColorCatherine Kehoe Mar 10–14, 2014

How much information is necessary in a painting? What can be left out while still capturing the essence of the subject? Translating detail into simple shapes is one way to arrive at the essential.

The Egg Tempera PortraitKoo Schadler Nov 10–14, 2014

Because of its luminosity and fine line work, egg tempera is an ideal medium for rendering the human face. In this workshop you will learn every step for developing a portrait in egg tempera.

Sculpting the HeadJohn Soderberg Apr 13–17, 2014

A critical foundation of sculpture, whatever the sculptor’s style and approach, is the ability to realistically sculpt the human head while capturing and conveying facial expression and emotional content. If one can sculpt the human face effectively, one can sculpt anything. In this workshop we will sculpt a life-sized human head.

RAKU CERAMICS: A CONTINUING REVOLUTION An exhibition, workshop, lecture and tea ceremony presenting the origins and contemporary practice of raku ceramics.

Raku ceramics have been at the center of two artistic revolutions—the birth of the traditional Tea Ceremony in 16th-century Japan and the Clay Revolution in Southern California in the 1950s. In both instances, raku became a liberating technique and philosophy that stimulated new ways of creating and experiencing clay.

Raku continues to lend itself to invention and experimentation. Constantly evolving, its spectrum of expression has expanded to include political and social statements as well as achieving a balance of simplicity and sophistication that transcends function.

INTERNATIONAL RAKU INVITATIONAL

“Raku Ceramics: Origins, Impact and Contemporary Expression” March 7–17, 2014An international exhibition of historical and contemporary raku works including some of the early pioneers of modern raku: Paul Soldner (USA), Rick Dillingham (USA), Jean Biagini (France), Aline Favr (Switzerland), Tim Andrews (UK) and Fabienne Gioria (Switzerland). Also work from invited contemporary raku artists including the work of Jim Romberg and Patrick Crabb. Some works will be for sale.Gallery talk by curator Jim Romberg March 12, 5:30 p.m. Free and open to the public. Pre-registration advised.

New Forms, New SurfacesPatrick Crabb and Jim Romberg March 8–9, 2014

Patrick Crabb draws from many cultures for his sculptural works in clay while Jim Romberg brings Japanese aesthetics, Abstract Expressionism and the natural environment together in his work. Both will demonstrate forming techniques using the wheel and hand-building methods. A wide variety of surface treatments involving slips, stains, glaze, and the impact of texture on color in raku reduction will be demonstrated. Then workshop participants will have the opportunity to glaze and raku-fire their own bisqued works. The adjacent “Raku Tradition Transformed” exhibit will serve as

a focal point for discussion of other approaches to raku, the origins of raku, its relation to the traditional tea ceremony, and the raku influence on contemporary ceramics. tuition: $275/some ceramic experience required

Raku Firing & Tea CeremonyOtt, Romberg, Oshi March 16, 2014, 1–5 p.m.

Raku firing and post-firing procedures create unique, one-of-a-kind effects that reflect not only the vision of the ceramist but also the engagement of a natural process—one that makes heat, fire and smoke part of the artist’s final statement. This immersive experience will begin with a demonstration of raku glazing options, then each participant will be given a bisque-fired tea bowl to glaze and fire. After a special tour of the raku exhibition led by curator Jim Romberg, participants will use their finished bowl in an authentic Japanese tea ceremony hosted by Mushima Oshi. Limited to 20 participants.

The Sedona Arts Center has been changing lives for more than 50 years! Founded in 1958, the Sedona Arts Center has been the foundation of art education in Northern Arizona for more than half a century. It’s first (and current) home was in the Jordan family’s apple packing barn. A lot has changed since then. We’ve grown and expanded, but the Art Barn remains at the heart of the organization. As a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization we still work to fulfill the same mission:

Our MissionThe Sedona Arts Center is a nonprofit educational institution dedicated to nurturing creative discovery, learning and sharing through arts education and artistic development.
