Captain Captain Studios at UAF Gallery

2010-01-27T15:18:00.000-08:00

Captains Captured: UAF Gallery showcases an artistic collective’s cross-pollination.
By Brian Staker

What does the Utah Arts Festival do the other 51 weeks of the year when the end of June event isn’t going on? Besides the intensive planning that the event requires, the arts organization operates a gallery in its office, mounting an exhibit every month. The UAF Gallery can be overshadowed by other, higher profile spaces on Gallery Stroll night—as well as its own reputation for focusing on the arts festival—but the UAF been showcasing some of the most interesting emerging local artists.

It’s an integral part of the organization’s mission. “Our goal is always to feature up-and-coming artists who haven’t had a chance to be seen in local galleries or at the festival,” says UAF Gallery Director Matthew Jacobson. So, he was excited to show 14 artists from the group working at Captain Captain art studios, located on downtown Salt Lake City’s west side, not far from Kilby Court, and known for their lively studio open houses. “I wanted to give some exposure to artists new to the gallery. Trent Call and Sri Whipple have a following, and this show brought in a younger crowd,” Jacobson says.

Well-known Salt Lake City artist, Mulder, dies 1939-2008 » A "master colorist" known for his gentle laugh

2008-12-06T16:29:00.001-08:00

By Ben Fulton

The Salt Lake Tribune
12/06/2008

J. Thomas Mulder, a Salt Lake City native and painter known for his striking use of vibrant colors and strong, simple design of scenes, died of colon cancer Nov. 24.

A respected figure of the local art scene, Mulder worked as banquet manager for the original Hotel Utah before making his mark at Salt Lake City's Phillips Gallery and Park City's Kimball Art Center. Those who knew him said the expertise with color and light in his paintings was drawn from his many travels through what he called the "sun-belt" locations of India, Italy and the Mediterranean, Mexico and the Southwest United States.

"His paintings were very simple themes, with simple structures and beautiful clean colors and unbroken spaces," said Susan Gallacher, painter and owner of Kings Cottage Gallery, who knew Mulder for 30 years. "He was very gentle, sweet man. He will be missed."

The son of late Gweneth Gates Mulder and William Mulder, a distinguished professor of English at the University of Utah, he was born March 14, 1939, and graduated from East High School and the University of Utah before attending the Nizam College in Hyderabad, India, for one year. He later completed his M.F.A. degree from the University of Alabama in 1977. His "Chile and Tomatoes" painting, the result of a trip to Mexico, hangs in the Salt Lake County Art Collection.

Helen Mulder, his step-mother, said his time spent in India among the nation's colorful markets and women wearing vibrant
Advertisement

scarves and stoles was instrumental in forming his artistic vision at an early age. After spending time in a tent village in New Delhi, a teenage Mulder hitchhiked to the Turkish border to fly his way to London and back home.

He left many paintings behind that have never been exhibited. "We hope to have a commemorative show at some point," Helen Mulder said.

Toward the end of his life he split time between his home in Salt Lake City's Avenues neighborhood and work at his Captain Captain Studios outside downtown.

Paul Mulder, his half-brother and a local Salt Lake City actor, said that while his brother struggled financially as an artist he never neglected it due to those difficulties, instead traveling to galleries and shows throughout his life.

The family will greet friends Saturday, Dec. 13, from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. at Friendship Manor, 1320 E. 500 South in Salt Lake City. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to Applegate hospice or the American Cancer Society. Condolences may be sent to www.larkinmortuary.com.

Subject: Off the Wall questions
Date: Mon, 20 Oct 2008 06:27:16 -0600

Patrick,

I enjoyed seeing your work at Sam Weller's bookstore. Would you mind answering a few
questions about your pieces there? Brian Staker for City Weekly

well, Presently I'm in Brooklyn (at the time of which this was wrote) with friends, most of whom originate in the Salt Lake vicinity, but have found their paths here.Hopefully the vantage of such a removed perspective shall accommodate an open relation toward what was done & how it seems...

Q 1. How did you get to be involved in the show? What background do you bring to the show: what other work have you done & other exhibits/also university studies? Do you have a website/artists statement/resume of your work?

A 1. The involvement with the show began around the end of September after Stephanie Leitch called me. She asked what I had planned for October & being able to visualize the work she's familiar with my having done in the same space of Sam Weller's for a Haruki Murakami Book Release event; Stephanie & Shari Zollinger were inviting another go, with new themes & seasons. Not having gone to school, but seeking whatever I'm inclined to learn while navigating the Wasatch Front on foot, bike or bus; I enjoy different approaches which may require patience until an explosive sprint-like maneuver is a' propos. Although possible, writing an artist's statement has thus far not been priority for the intention & purpose seeming quintessentially needed when drawing whatever dominates a certain look or words from my surroundings.

Q 2. How did you gather and assemble materials for your work in the show; what kind of decisions went into that process?

A 2. Since buying professional tools such as pens/paper is relatively inexpensive, the habit of using those is strong & combined with collage elements of any items gleaned throughout the city's curbside piles of trash (that actually represent, to me, an insatiable abundance of products people decide not to creatively realign for use in any way desired). Also, most of the papers used in the piece were gifted by my Mom who works in a school that (again:treasure vs. trash) had no need for it. Said implements were then formed into their new status upon a commandeered Ping-Pong table in the tri-studio space of Cein Watson, James Randle & Patrick Munger of Captain Captain Studios on 825 South 500 West SLC, UT. Those people know how to be who they want & graciously accommodate fellow makers of better/different worlds.

Q 3. How did you decide to use the space of the bookstore and how did that thought process go into creating your work in the show? What did you learn about hidden spaces of the building or 'ghosts' that you brought to light?

A 3. Assembling spawned from the above mentioned occasion of displaying Haruki Murakami inspired drawings, that became site-specific work in May of 2007, gave precedence & knowledge to my imagination then referenced during process of the present piece & subsequent title: Rising Fall Landing. The possibility of open-ended statements & unknowing conclusions together offer, in my opinion, rather interesting ways of engaging people while being expressive. So, when I say the words, conjure intuitively an interpretation of breathe, stairways & autumn resoundingly transpires. However, it's potentially anyway for whomever's doing the guessing and defining. Just as apparent seems the use of space on Main Street in Salt Lake City, Utah. The building itself has known several roles & layers. Time already spent simply reading with a coffee & wandering about the basement of Sam Weller's informed, quite unconsciously, how I personally relate with the space. Then a whirl-winding walk through all corridors sequestered below street level & quite obstacle ridden, revealed by Stephanie, dimensions unknown & probably even other existences that inhabit prior & present partitions of a night club reverie & many decaying wall paper patterns.

Q 4. How do your works interact with those of the other artists in the show?

A 4. Interaction of (what became four people's ideas realized independently) are, I believe, entirely dependent on how someone were to walk into Sam Weller's Bookstore then look beyond shelf's, employees, gimmicky knick-knacks (i.e. book lights or big pens) while logistically following the concourse towards division of empty architecture in the air-Strings & Nails by Jakob Hauge. At this point the option to traverse up stairs in the farthest from door end up positioning a person where they would, viewing East, see the red wall on the North side, being the boundary for stairs ascending to Fiction & the Rare Book Room. This portion of area is surface supporting what evolved into an unbound book/disembodied hand. From North to South or left to right the Posterior Radius/Ulna begins with sequence of next: Carpals & Metacarpals, ending upon Phalanges. Walking along the Mezzanine one will view works by David Rhulman. Both original & reoriented manners of compartmentalized colors & blue chalk board panels seem evocative of free forming ephemeral impressions
as well as that which has a definite enclosure. Descending the stairs brings within reach drawings reconnoitering autumn emblems & present positions of that quality books personify, such as transportive realms. Across the way now is another vantage for strings bearing segments of ceiling. Then facing North below the basement stairs/ above their landing; panels constructed, painted- even lighting up by Edward McKenna. Their synchronicity inkind with the unassuming palette produced by David & myself reveals, i feel, an uncanny point of departure we three hadn't contracted previously, but somehow channeled into it's fated presentation. Lastly some chalk lines were drawn spontaneously upon the falling stairs wall. This portion is erasing rapidly & renewed images will be periodically executed in place.

Q 5. How was response to the show on opening?

A 5. Response to the show felt very appreciative towards all of those at Sam Weller's from Tony to Liz, Shari, Stephanie & several friends attending. The Gallery Stroll evening itself releases many revelers upon our city's sidewalks. Some say hello, good work, where's the wine or nothing at all. However, when not seeking social enclaves the ability to stand amongst wonderful books in a local impassioned community, brought a smile to my experience. Tomatoes from the garden, of a house shared with Steven Larson & Killy, accompanied by the neighbor's tree dispensing black walnuts I roasted and other varieties of snacks Sam Weller's provided gave as good a dinner to Book Worms & Art Squirrels could want.

I look forward to returning home and knowing theirs a great place for maybe more than hanging hats & having pats on the back.

Thank you for your interest

Sincerely,

legend
