Research & Creative Activity Annual Report
M I S S I O N
The College of Fine Arts declares that the arts are essential to the life of the individual and the community. We express our commitment to the arts through our dedication to teaching, scholarly research, artistic experimentation, performance, and exhibition.
The research and creative activities of the faculty, students, and staff of the College of Fine Arts fully embody the intersection of the college’s creative type and the university’s wildly possible brands. The college explores and expands the arts and their impact on a daily basis through creativity, ingenuity, and risk-taking. The College of Fine Arts is an outstanding gathering of talented, compassionate, and committed artists/scholars and students with whom I have the pleasure to work with each day. Our passionate research and creative activity outcomes form the foundation of our commitment to teaching the next generation of creative leaders through the arts and greatly contribute to the cultural life of the city of Lexington, the Commonwealth of Kentucky, our country, and the world. We like to push boundaries, create new knowledge, and produce groundbreaking experiences that impact diverse individuals, transform students’ lives, and result in unparalleled opportunities to reflect on the essential role that the arts play in life. Just as no two artists/scholars are alike in the college, no two days are alike, nor are any two projects alike, but themes of inquiry and impact are shared by all as is evidenced by the numbers, titles, and stories documented in this publication. We are way more than many Kentuckians can imagine and we hope that you enjoy this insight into many of our wildly creative activities from this past year.

HIGHLIGHTS OF CFA-FUNDED FACULTY RESEARCH KAREN BOTTGE, School of Music Analysis of Tonal Music, 5th ed. and Writing in Music
RUTH ADAMS, School of Art and Visual Studies Per Noi: Conversations with the Ancestors
In Fall 2017 Karen Bottge was invited to join co-authors Allen Cadwallader and David Gagné in preparing a revised 4th edition of Analysis of Tonal Music, the most well-known textbook on the Schenkerian style of music analysis. With support of the summer research grant, Bottge was able to dedicate extended time to writing, revising, and editing 11 new pedagogical chapters for a new coordinating workbook. Each chapter includes 7 to 8 analytical assignments involving 15 to 20 musical excerpts.
With research funds, Ruth Adams returned to Europe to continue photographing for her research project Per Noi: Conversations with the Ancestors. This funding allowed her to photograph for 5 days in Florence, Italy, 3 days in Rome and 2 days in Berlin, Germany. Upon her return she purchased supplies to print and frame two sets of 20 Platinum/Palladium images. One set is at the Midwest Center for Photography in their Flat Files Feature and the other set went to the University of North Dakota for Adams’ first solo exhibition of selections from this new body of work. To date the work has shown in 9 group and solo exhibitions. In addition, the attention that these images are getting has gotten Adams an invitation to teach a 3-day platinum/palladium workshop at UND.
GARRETT HANSEN, School of Art and Visual Studies Hail-Ballistic With the support of summer research funds Garrett Hansen completed multiple rounds of materials testing and worked with colleagues from the King Library in an effort to create viable 3D images using contemporary photogrammetry techniques. The challenges associated with these images are significant given the nature of the materials used for ballistic testing. Hansen has submitted paperwork to become a faculty affiliate of the medical school and is waiting on clearance to use the school’s facilities to further these images with CT scanning technology.

RAE GOODWIN, School of Art and Visual Studies Production, documentation, and crating of a new assemblage art series Rae Goodwin received funds to create 10 new art works in a new series of femmage/assemblage and prepare them for exhibition. At the end of this grant cycle she completed 12 works and have another six in progress. This funding allowed Goodwin to be productive in a short timeline as she budgeted and spent the majority of the funds on Research Assistants. These RAs were members of our undergraduate and graduate programs majoring in Art Studio. This new femmage/ assemblage methodology in her creative practice was further developed with the purchase of additional research materials and supplies for the creation of the works. Thus far the work has been included in one local solo exhibition during a feminist symposium on campus and in a local invitational group exhibition at the Living Arts and Science Center. Goodwin will next invite local and regional curators to her studio to view this new work in person.
ROBERT SHAY, School of Art and Visual Studies Artist Models for Sketching
JONATHAN GLIXON, School of Music Sound and Splendor in the Most Serene Republic of Venice
All the funds awarded to Robert Shay were used to hire models. Also, the primary purpose of the grant was to continue drawing the figure with an eye toward improving his skills and secondarily, beginning the process of finding a signature style. The opportunity afforded by the grant of a concentrated time in which to draw was highly beneficial. In terms of finding that elusive signature style, two possibilities emerged. The two possibilities “discovered” during the grant period were a) multiple, overlapping figures (or parts of figures) which seem to flow in and out of each other and which yield a general degree of ambiguity vis-à-vis which part of the body belongs to which figure and b) floating a partial figure on/in a landscape.
Jonathan Glixon’s funds supported his research trip to Venice in May and June. One of the main tasks for this trip was the photography of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century pamphlets describing celebrations of various sorts in Venice. Glixon accomplished nearly everything he had planned for this, photographing 93 pamphlets at the Biblioteca nazionale marciana, 17 at the Biblioteca del Museo Correr, and 7 at the Biblioteca della Fondazione Cini. In addition, he studied and photographed a series of financial records for celebrations at the Archivio di Stato, and additional descriptions at the Biblioteca Correr. Another portion of his planned research was the completion of his work in the archives of the Venetian trade guilds, housed in the Archivio di stato.
HUNTER STAMPS, School of Art and Visual Studies Ceramic Sculpture Exhibition at UNC-Asheville The funding supported Hunter Stamps’ creative research travel and visual art preparation expenses over the course of the 2018 summer. This funding energized and facilitated his creative research activity by providing Stamps’ with the resources to publicize and exhibit his ceramic sculptures. In preparation for going up for promotion to Full Professor, Stamps' ramped up his exhibition practice and expanded the scope of the national and international exhibition venues in which he exhibited his work. Utilizing the funding from the Research Enhancement Grant Stamps was able to create a new body of work, document the pieces, and participate in numerous exhibitions.

STAMPS NAMED UNIVERSITY RESEARCH PROFESSOR EXCERPT OF UKNOW STORY BY JENNY WELLS-HOSLEY, MAY 1, 2019 Hunter Stamps, associate professor in the School of Art and Visual Studies, was one of 16 faculty across the University of Kentucky awarded a 2019-2020 University Research Professorship. The award goes to faculty who have demonstrated excellence in research and creative work that addresses scientific, social, cultural, economic, and health challenges in our region and around the world. Hunter Stamps received his M.F.A from Indiana University in Bloomington and his B.F.A from the University of North Carolina in Asheville. He has taught ceramics, sculpture, three-dimensional design and art appreciation courses. Hunter’s work is exhibited in national and international juried, invitational, and solo exhibitions. His work has been published in periodicals such as Ceramics Monthly and represented by galleries in New York and Washington, D.C. The purpose of the University Research Professorship program is to recognize and publicize research accomplishments of scholars across the full range of disciplines at UK. The award amount is $10,000 for one year, to be used to further the research, scholarship and creative endeavors of the awardee. The University Research Professors Program recognizes excellence across the full spectrum of research, scholarship and creative endeavors within each college that nominates a faculty member. College leadership developed criteria for excellence in research and scholarly activity within their area of expertise and then nominated faculty who excelled at these criteria.

HIGHLIGHTS OF CFA-FUNDED STUDENT RESEARCH HOLLY SMITH Ph.D. candidate, Music Education Holly Smith received funding from the College of Fine Arts to present original research at national conferences including: Mountain Lake Colloquium for teachers of general music teachers; the Society for Music Teacher Education: SMTE Symposia; and the American Eurhythmics Society National Conference. The funding provided assisted in registration and travel expenses for Smith to attend multiple conferences to not only promote her own original research but to promote current music education research happening at the University of Kentucky. Research presentations presented included: 1) Music Activity Reports by Music Teachers with Varying Training in Dalcroze: An Exploratory Study; 2) Music in Movement. The Influence of Dalcroze Teacher Training in an Elementary Music Classroom: An Instrumental Case Study. JORDAN PROFITT B.M. student, Music Education Jordan Profitt travelled abroad for the first time with the help of the College of Fine Arts, attending the Prague Summer Nights music festival in Tabór and Prague, Czech Republic. While the award directly paid for the flight, it also indirectly allowed Profitt to visit Germany and Austria. GERALDO LEITE DA COSTA NETO M.M. student, Guitar Performance Geraldo Leite da Costa Neto traveled to Brazil with the University of Kentucky Guitar Trio. By working with Dieter Hennings and Felipe Magdaleno da Costa Neto had the chance to understand how to interact with other musicians. One of the trio’s biggest achievements was to transcribe an entire "Concerto for Guitar and Bandoneon" by Astor Piazzolla. Da Costa Neto also taught masterclasses in two universities during the tour. KATERI MILLER Ph.D. candidate, Music Education Thanks to the funds she received from the College of Fine Arts, Kateri Miller travelled to several national conferences and shared her study, But is He a Real Musician: A Single Case Study of a Popular Musician. Her research was shared with the music educators at the national conference for the Organization of Kodály Educators. Later she travelled to Florida to share her research at the National Association for Music Educators practitioners conference.
