Sheila Hicks 希拉·希克斯 (1934) Post-Minimalism American

tonykwk39@gmail.com Sheila Hicks (born in Hastings, Nebraska, 1934 ) is an American artist who has lived and worked in Paris, France, since 1964. Prior to that she lived in Guerrero, Mexico (1959–63). Sheila Hicks was taught to sew by her mother and to embroider and knit by her grandmother, making her 'thread conscious' from a young age. Hicks attended Yale University School of Art and Architecture in Connecticut (1954-1959), where she gained a BFA in painting (1957) and MFA in painting (1959) and studied with Josef Albers, Rico Lebrun, Bernard Chaet, Jose de Riviera, Herbert Mather, Norman Ives, Gabor Peterdi, George Kubler, George Heard Hamilton, and Vincent Scully. Along with George Kubler, independently, Junius Bird of the American Museum of Natural History and Anni Albers were advisors for her thesis, "Pre-Incaic Textiles." Hicks was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship to study and paint in Chile (1957–58); she photographed archeological sites in Peru and Bolivia. In 1959, she was awarded a grant by Henri Peyre, Sterling Professor at Yale University, to study in France. Upon completion, she moved to Mexico and, inspired by pre-Columbian textiles and indigenous culture, established her first weaving studio in Taxco el Viejo. While in Mexico, she worked on textile projects for Mathias Goeritz, Luis Barragán, Ricardo Legoretta and Knoll International. With her Rolleiflex, she photographed the experimental architecture of Felix Candela in preparation for a documentary film. She relocated to Paris, France, in 1964, and founded Atelier des Grands Augustins, where she worked on large-scale, site-specific textile-based projects. In 2010 a retrospective exhibition of Hicks' 50-year career originated at the Addison Gallery in Andover, Mass. with additional venues at the ICA in Philadelphia, and at The Mint Museum in Charlotte, North Carolina. This included both miniature works, which Hicks calls "minimes" and large scale sculpture. She also makes larger (sometimes monumental) works, wall hangings and sculptures. Her pieces are often vibrantly colored and materially diverse. Hick's work on miniatures have included the use of transparent noodles, pieces of slate, razor clam shells, shirt collars, collected sample skeins of embroidery threads, rubber bands, shoelaces, and Carmelite-darned socks, while her temporary installations have incorporated thousands of hospital "girdles" - birth bands for newborns - baby shirts, blue nurses' blouses and khaki army shirts, as well as the wool sheets darned by Carmelite nuns. Hicks's work is characterised by her direct examination of indigenous weaving practices in the countries of their origin. This has led her travel through five continents, visiting locations such as Mexico, France, Morocco, India, Chile, Sweden, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Japan and South Africa, developing relationships with designers, artisans, industrialists, architects, politicians and cultural leaders. In 2013, the 18-foot-high Pillar of Inquiry/Supple Column was included in the Whitney Biennal. 希拉·希克斯（Sheila Hicks）（1934年出生在內布拉斯加州黑斯廷斯）是一名美國藝術家，自1964年以來一直在法國巴黎居住和工作。此前，她住在墨西哥的格雷羅（1959-63）。 希拉·希克斯（Sheila Hicks）被教她的母親縫製，並由她的祖母進行刺繡和針織，從小就使她的“線意識”。希克斯出生於康乃迪克州耶魯大學藝術與建築學院（1954-1959年），在那裡獲得了繪畫BFA（1957年）和繪畫MFA（1959年），並與Josef Albers，Rico Lebrun，Bernard Chaet，Jose de Riviera，赫伯特·馬瑟，諾曼·艾夫斯，加布·彼得迪，喬治·庫伯勒，喬治·漢德·漢密爾頓和文森特·斯卡利。與獨立的喬治·庫伯（George Kubler）一起，美國自然歷史博物館的Junius Bird和Anni Albers是她的論文“Pre-Incaic Textiles”的顧問。希克斯獲得了富布萊特獎學金，在智利學習和繪畫（1957-58）;她拍攝了秘魯和玻利維亞的考古遺址。 1959年，她被授予耶魯大學斯特林教授 亨利派耶(Henri Peyre)的資助，在法國學習。完成後，她搬到墨西哥，受哥倫布前的紡織品和土著文化的啟發，在塔希維而維活(Taxco el Viejo)建立了她的第一個編織工作室。在墨西哥，她曾在Mathias Goeritz，LuisBarragán，Ricardo Legoretta和Knoll International的紡織項目工作。與她的Rolleiflex，她拍攝了Felix Candela的實驗建築，準備了一部紀錄片。 她於1964年搬遷到法國巴黎，成立了奧古斯丁大學工作室，在那裡她從事大型，特定地點的紡織品項目。 2010年，希克斯50年的職業生涯的追溯展覽起源於馬薩諸塞州安多佛市的Addison畫廊，在費城的ICA和北卡羅來納州夏洛特的薄荷博物館舉辦了更多的場地。這包括小型作品，希克斯稱之為“小時”和大型雕塑。她還製作更大的（有時是巨大的）作品，壁掛和雕塑。她的作品通常是色彩鮮豔，物質多樣的。 Hick的小型作品包括使用透明麵條，石板，剃須蛤殼，襯衫領，刺繡線索，橡皮筋，鞋帶和卡梅爾特的襪子，而她的臨時安裝已經配備了數千家醫院“腰帶” - 新生兒的誕生樂隊 - 嬰兒襯衫，藍色護士襯衫和卡其色軍隊襯衫，以及卡梅倫修女的羊毛床單。 赫克斯的作品的特點是她直接審視其原籍國的土著織造行為。這導致她前往五大洲，如墨西哥，法國，摩洛哥，印度，智利，瑞典，以色列，沙特阿拉伯，日本和南非等地，與設計師，工匠，工業家，建築師，政治家和文化領袖。
