About the Item

038 Unworldly - In which the poetic and comical journey of a 22-year old cabinetmaker is told, which ends strangely. 038 Unworldly, a framed work on paper, is part of an ongoing series of 104 paintings called The Voice Imitator, which won a New York Foundation for the Arts (NYFA) grant in 2013. For Schuleit Haber, mixed media includes acrylic, ink, oil pastel (but no oil paint), and charcoal/graphite. Her mark-making has a narrative quality to it; one could follow a red brush stroke and watch it shift, build and even sometimes appear to drip off the paper. The artist allows the background of the piece to form an amount of negative space that forces a tension between the positive marks on the piece; hurried, yet organic linework contrasts with more pronounced forms to establish a dichotomy. Shades of white, blue, red and black become more pronounced through this use of negative space. All of Schuleit Haber’s work in this series of abstract paintings are framed identically allowing the torn edges of the paper to be shown. Her work is beautifully finished in an ash white frame with OP3 Acrylic which allows the work to speak for itself without the distraction of a busy frame. The Voice Imitator series is inspired by a collection of short fiction by Austrian writer Thomas Bernhard. In her serial paintings, Anna Schuleit Haber explores and evokes Thomas Bernhard’s long-standing obsession with intrigue, political corruption, trauma, and urban mystery. The absurdity of life that is present in the stories is amplified in the bold visual vocabulary of the paintings, especially when seen in context with each other. Anna Schuleit Haber studied painting at the Rhode Island School of Design, creative writing/book arts at Dartmouth College, and was a fellow at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Studies at Harvard. Her works have ranged from museum installations made with paint, to large-scale projects in forests, on uninhabited islands, and in psychiatric institutions, using extensive sound systems, live sod, thousands of flowers, mirrors, antique telephones, bodies of water, and neuroscience technologies. She was named a MacArthur Fellow for work that has “conceptual clarity, compassion, and beauty.” Schuleit Haber has been a fellow at the MacDowell Colony, Bogliasco, Blue Mountain Center, The Hermitage, Yaddo, Banff, and a visiting artist/guest lecturer at Brown University, MIT, Smith College, Harvard’s Graduate School of Design, The New School, Brandeis, University of Michigan, McGill, RISD, Boston University, Pratt, Bowdoin, and Syracuse University. Her writings have appeared in the Virginia Quarterly Review, The Believer, the Massachusetts Review, Agni, and in Urban Infill, the journal of the Cleveland Urban Design Center. Upcoming projects revolve around seriality and memory, and include commissions in the city of Copenhagen (DK) and other architectural settings in the U.S. Her works are included in private collections in the U.S., Europe, Asia, and Australia, as well as in the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam. She is based in New Orleans and New Hampshire.
