REVIEWS
|
Alice Dubiel directly commented on wilderness
designation itself as a mask for our destruction of the earth.
Her Views and Reviews: A Wilderness Tale exposed the exploitation
of nature with pithy quotes and kitsch images.
Susan Platt, Art Papers, May-June 1999
|
|
There's a new look at the old in Alice Dubiel's
complex and poetic piece Views and Reviews: A Wilderness Tale,...
[which] alludes to the conflict between civilization and nature.
Ron Glowen, The Herald [Everett WA], January 8, 1999
|
|
Alice Dubiel is clever: in her installation
at 911 Media Arts, she wrapped what was really a polemic in
engaging dress. Her five window panels, like so many holiday
window displays, drew in curious passers-by.... Dubiel used
the panels to present visually her thesis that our view of
the landscape, and of nature, is inevitably colored by the
same desires for control and order that drive our relationship
with the urban realm.
Christopher Hawthorne, Seattle Weekly, January 26,
1994
|
|
Alice Dubiel addresses the issue of nuclear
threat and environmental toxicity with a series of exquisite
watercolors that combine the fluid delicacy of Persian miniatures
with the format of medieval illuminations.
Claire Accomando, Artweek, November 3, 1984
|
|
Alice Dubiel, using the scroll format of traditional Eastern
painting in Apocalyptic Visions, connects the ancient burning
terror of volcanic eruption to nuclear holocaust.
- Judith Margolis, Artweek, January 9, 1988.
|
|
A positive historical note is sounded by Alice
Dubiel's painting, Lay Women Healers in Medieval Europe, which
calls to mind the fact that women have also been able to heal
and have often been sisters to one another.
Louise Moore, Artweek, June 9, 1984
