Deakin University Exhibition Gallery, Geelong, Victoria, Australia
exhibit includes some of my text based work employing humble materials:

The Unwinding Destiny Project…an exploration about time, consumption, the potential of words,how they diminish, empower, and over time, inform our beliefs, and conditioning.

Rauschenberg, Warhol, Einstein – Everhart Museum

Posted on November 22, 2011 by Ula Einstein

I travelled to the Everhart Museum in Scranton, PA on Sunday. My cousin who I refer to as Martha Jean (the Queen) drove us. I was as jarred and saddened to witness all the deer-kill along the roads, as I was surprised and delighted to witness my labor intensive tactile works on paper, hanging alongside work by 20th Century giants Robert Rauschenberg and Andy Warhol. Part of a long stream and thread…of art history… Conjured up thoughts about what we are drawn to create, to express, contributing to a larger dialogue. I love paper for its forgiving qualities.

*Buds, Blooms & Berries: Plants in Science, Culture & Art

(artists who work with plant derivations)
Buds, Blooms & Berries: Plants in Science, Culture & Art Where would we be if we didn’t have plants? Plants are undeniably important to every living creature on Earth. Food, shelter, health, culture and art are all dependent on the use of plants, both in tangible and figurative ways. Buds, Blooms & Berries is a multi-disciplinary exhibit highlighting the Everhart Museum’s scientific collections and its historic Twining Herbarium, ethnographic materials depicting plants and trees, and contemporary art reflecting how botanicals impact today’s societies and mindset. Plants are an important element of the world’s ecosystem, producing oxygen, consuming carbon dioxide, providing nourishment and aesthetic inspiration, as well as function for human and animal shelter and tools around the world. Plants are also some of the earliest living things as represented by fossils in the Museum’s permanent collection.

love conquers all ©Ula Einstein 2011

2012 The Drop NYC was a inspired exhibition with a myriad of installations by many fine artists, including Yoko Ono. Here’s a detail of the installation/photography project. Some of the limited edition C-Prints are also included with my works on paper in flat files at Pierogi in Williamsburg., 177 N. 9th St.

I’m researching how I can recontextualize some of my own work into public art projects using sustainable materials.

CONTEMPORARY SOUVENIRS Gallery of Contemporary Art Sacred Heart University, Fairfield, CT
June Ahrens, ULA EINSTEIN, Constance Old, Joseph Fucigna, Paul Villinski
http://www.sacredheart.edu/pages/35472_contemporary_souvenirs.cfm

Einstein’s expanded practice — exploring the intrinsic link between destruction and creation – results in light, substantive works of art.

Opening Reception- Sunday, January 23rd 1:00 – 3:30 PM dates: January 23 – March 3, 2011
Panel Discussion with the Artists: after opening @ 3:30

FAIRFIELD, Conn. – Souvenirs are tokens of remembrance, mementoes that are cherished and saved. The works of art in Sacred Heart University’s upcoming Gallery of Contemporary Art exhibit entitled “Contemporary Souvenirs” reference the modern world around us and give credence to the old adage that “one person’s trash will be another’s treasure.” It is the artistic use and interpretation of the discarded materials from our modern world that provides the foundation for this fascinating exhibition, curated by Laura G. Einstein.
Generally, not much attention is paid to the mundane every-day objects that are ubiquitous in our 2011 cultural footprint. The ritual transformation of remnants—including air conditioning filters, record albums, construction site materials, deer netting, receipts and more— into works of art, tracks from the minutiae to the grandiose.
The works in this exhibition make us wonder if there is a ritual of collecting for the participating artists June Ahrens of New Canaan, CT, Ula Einstein of NYC, Joseph Fucigna of Wilton, CT, Constance Old of New Canaan, CT, and Paul Villinski of Long Island City, NY. Perhaps the works commemorate the notion that human beings are ephemeral but what we manufacture, in the long run, might not be.

SHARDS: Documenting Genocide, Maloney Art Gallery

Posted on October 17, 2010 by Ula Einstein

OPENING Oct. 21 Thursday 4:30-7pm: exhibit runs thru Nov. 19.

SHARDS: Documenting Genocide, a particularly strong and poignant exhibition included 7 of my sculptural and installation works at Maloney Art Gallery, College of Saint Elizabeth 2 Convent Road Morristown, NJ - 2 images of the works below.

The subject of genocide and its long term repercussions has deeply influenced me individually and collectively; I explore work that conveys this on a universal level; since, for me, it is the only reason to engage the subject.

Power of Words

Posted on September 18, 2010 by Ula Einstein

Words do not label things already there. Words are like the knife of a carver; They free the idea, the thing, from the general formlessness of the outside. As a man speaks, not only is his language in a state of birth, but also the very thing about he is talking. - Intuit wisdom -

only here it’s me, a Woman talking <g> This is influenced from the way pop culture is redefining things, ie. Green is the new Black, 50 is the new 30 (crazy stuff) and now mine is Clarity IS the new Sexy ©Ula Einstein 2010
