Description

"Hazel Belvo Minnesota artist Hazel Belvo (b. 1934) has been a central figure in the arts culture of Minnesota-and the American avant-garde-as an artist, art educator, and feminist leader. Her body of work has centered on vibrant expressionistic paintings exploring myth, spirituality, and the psyche. She is perhaps best known for her series on manidoo-giizhikens, the legendary Spirit Tree on the northern shore of Lake Superior whose ancient, twisted form embodies the endurance and majesty of nature. A native of Ohio, Belvo studied at the Dayton Art Institute, the New School for Social Research in New York, and Harvard University. She was a long-time participant in the Provincetown Art Colony. For thirty years she was married to George Morrison, an Abstract Expressionist artist who found his way back to his Ojibwe roots in Minnesota. Together they created Red Rock, a home and studio on Lake Superior near Grand Portage, where their work was steeped in land, water, and sky. For over thirty years Belvo taught at the Grand Marais Art Colony, and indeed teaching has been an integral part of her artistic practice. From 1972 to 1989 she taught at the Summit School and St. Paul Academy, and from 1989 until her retirement at the Minneapolis College of Art and Design. She has been an innovative and inspiring teacher who enables her students to create works of art that express their inner lives. The feminine psyche has been a particular emphasis in Belvo's work. She was a pioneering feminist in the 1970s as a founding member of WARM (the Women's Art Registry of Minnesota, now called the Women's Art Resources of Minnesota), one of the earliest women's art collectives in the United States. As Belvo has stated, "I have been called an artist who represents both a strengthening influence in society and a proactive agent of social change." Now eighty-four years old, Hazel Belvo is an accomplished artist whose work is found in numerous public and private collections throughout the country. She is also a wise teacher with much to impart about art and life. The first book-length study of this extraordinary artist should find a wide readership. Julie L'Enfant is the author of six books, including four for Afton Press: The Gag Family: German-Bohemian Artists in America (2002), Pioneer Modernists: Minnesota's First Generation of Women Artists (2011), Other Realities: The Art of Paul S. Kramer (2013) and, with co-author Jaden Hansen, Persistence of Vision: The Art of Bettye Olson (2017). Her essays, articles, and reviews have appeared in such publications as Minnesota History, Nineteenth-Century Art Worldwide: A Journal of Visual Culture, and Woman's Art Journal. L'Enfant was chair of liberal arts and professor of art history at the College of Visual Arts in Saint Paul. She has given numerous lectures in the Twin Cities and beyond on nineteenth- and twentieth-century art"--
