Timeline

1953

James "Jamie" Nares (born 1953 in London, England) is a British transgender woman artist living and working in New York City since 1974.

Nares makes paintings and films (most notably the no wave film Rome 78); played guitar in the no wave groups James Chance and the Contortions and the Del-Byzanteens (the latter also including Jim Jarmusch); and was a founding member of Colab.

1960

Grace Glueck, New York Times art critic, described the effect of Nares's paintings as a combination of Japanese calligraphy and the 1960s cartoon works of Roy Lichtenstein.

Her work is exhibited in various museums in the United States: such as the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, NY, and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York.

1970

In the mid-1970s, Nares made a series of short sculptural-related minimal art films.

1972

Nares attended the Chelsea Art School in London from 1972 to 1973.

1974

She later studied at the School of Visual Arts in New York from 1974 to 1976.

Nares is best known as a contemporary art painter.

Her method involves repeated strokes that eventually create a precise representation.

She is known for employing single but intricate gestural brush strokes in most of her works.

1976

Some of her solo exhibitions include 1976: Films and Other Works at Paul Kasmin Gallery, in New York in 2012, and Mixed Use, Manhattan: Photography and Related Practices 1970s to the present in 2010 at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in Madrid, Spain.

1978

In 1978, she released a no wave 82-minute color Super-8 film entitled Rome 78, her only venture into feature-length, plot-driven film.

The narrative is about the Roman emperor Caligula now set in a shabby 1978 downtown Manhattan apartment.

As such, it proposes an analogy between ancient Rome and modern America as cultural empires.

Despite its large cast in period costumes, the work is never made out to be a serious undertaking, with actors who interject scenes with self-conscious laughter, and deliver seemingly improvised lines with over the top bravado.

The work features No Wave Cinema regular Lydia Lunch of Teenage Jesus and the Jerks along with artist David McDermott of McDermott & McGough as Caligula, James Chance, John Lurie, Eric Mitchell as a Roman general, Judy Rifka, Jim Sutcliffe, Lance Loud, Mitch Corber, Patti Astor, Anya Phillips as the Queen of Sheba and Kristian Hoffman, among others.

Nares' video "Street" (with a score composed by Thurston Moore), acquired by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is the centerpiece for an exhibition she curated for the museum from their collection on the so-named theme.

2004

Nares's other solo exhibitions include New Paintings in 2004 at the Hamiltons Gallery in London and the New Paintings and Chronophotographs exhibition in 2005 at the Goss Gallery in Dallas.

2010

Her works were also featured in the Painting and Sculpture exhibition at the Lehmann Maupin gallery in New York City in 2010.

2013

Rizzoli published a monograph dedicated to Nares's works in 2013.

When speaking on her work, Nares once stated:

"I try to embody the nature and combine the forms—it's like one and one making three—to expose a metaphor of some kind. It's searching for metaphors, for likeness, like a breeding ground. It seems to me, that's how a language develops. Everything breeds through metaphors."

This exhibition ran from 5 March until 27 May 2013.
