Joyce Tilley Nagel
Joyce T. Nagel Collagraph "Earthcore" Signed Dated Ltd Ed

1968

About the Item

"Earthcore" is an abstract of a familiar image ... a view of earth sliced in half usually as an explanation of the many layers of spaceship earth. This print is more than its title. It is rich in its depth of color and texture. Upon close inspection there is much activity on the surface which continually adds to its visual complexity. The name given to this print process is “Collagraph” It is made by glueing different materials to cardboard and creating a kind of collage. During the inking process the ink will rub off surfaces that are smooth or higher and stay on surfaces that hold more ink, at edge and at lower points thus creating the image. To protect the plate through the printing process it’s sealed with one or more layers of shellac. A collagraph plate is quite sensitive and will be deformed by the pressure of the printing press. Joyce Tilley Nagel received a BS in Advertising Design from Rochester Institute of Technology and an MA in Printmaking from Wayne State University, Detroit, Michigan. She has worked as a freelance graphic designer and has been recognized nationally for her fine art pastels. Joyce is, also, known as an enthusiastic and knowledgeable teacher with a sensitive approach to drawing, printmaking, oil and pastel painting. In the late 60’s Joyce was an instructor at the Birmingham Bloomfield Art Association. In the 70’s and 80’s she taught adults drawing, design, printmaking and pastel painting. In the late 80’s and 90’s, Joyce, along with her husband, Don Nagel, led travel groups, as artist/demonstrators, through Europe to Paris, Northern France, Giverny and Provence. She is a past president of Birmingham Society of Women Painters and was on the Birmingham Bloomfield Art Association Board, where she organized many exhibitions (Prints & Plates), and did graphics and production for their monthly publications, exhibitions and events. During these years, Joyce worked as a freelance graphic designer. She worked through Cranbrook Press on Christ Church Cranbrook monthly communications. According to Joyce, “In the 70’s, monoprints became popular and more fun to create than doing repetitive editions. Wiping the plate was an individual procedure that I enjoyed for both abstracts and real images. Thus, each print is unique.” Her collection of monoprints provides a classic snapshot of mid-century art and design. Today, she and husband Don, also an artist, are semi-retired, living and still painting on Hilton Head Island in South Carolina.

  • Giuseppe Capogrossi Iconic Comb Design "Superficie 324" Serigrafia
    Located in Detroit, MI
    "Superficie 324" is a 1988 screen print (serigraph) of a 1959 painting by Capogrossi. This is one of his famous "comb" or "fork" works that he perfected in the 1950s and continued to create for the remainder of his life. The blocks of primary red and yellow colors give a bright, joyful feel and contrast to the strong bold black that was Capogrossi's consistent color for the "combs". With no allegorical, psychological, or symbolic meanings, these structural elements could be assembled and connected in countless variations. Intricate and insistent, Capogrossi's signs determined the construction of the pictorial surface. This piece is identified along one side: Giuseppe Capogrossi By SIAE 1988 Silvio Zamorani Editor Via Saccarelli, 9 10144 Torino Italy Tel. (39)(11) 4730554 Progetto Grafico (Graphic Project): Studio Walter Benjamin. Serigrafia (Screen Print): BISI Torino. Capogrossi was born in Rome. After obtaining a degree in law in 1923–1924, he decided to study painting with Felice Carena at Accademia di Belle Arti di Roma. In 1927 Capogrossi embarked on a formative trip to Paris together with fellow artists and acquaintances Fausto Pirandello, Corrado Cagli and Emanuele Cavalli...

  • Joyce T. Nagel Print "Vegetable Forms No. 9" "1st State" Signed Dated Ltd Ed
    Located in Detroit, MI
    "Vegetable Forms No. 9" "1st State" is a beautiful linear design woodcut of an artichoke. What is intellectually interesting is the fractal beauty of nature found in the artichoke. A fractal is a kind of pattern that we observe often in nature and in art. Whenever you observe a series of patterns repeating over and over again, at many different scales, and where any small part resembles the whole, that’s a fractal. The Artichoke is the perfect example in that the shape of the leaves repeat themselves and they are the same shape as the fruit itself. Fractals are exciting, not only for their mathematical or conceptual representation, but also for the fact that you can visualise the math—and it’s beautiful! This print is rendered in an intense green with a light blue color to delineate the intriguing linear element of the artichoke's leaves. Joyce Tilley Nagel...
