INLANDIA @ Wignall Museum Chaffey College
Posted by sfields at 2008-01-21 12:12:42

INLANDIA
Wignall Museum Chaffey College
Monday, January 28 through Saturday, March 1, 2008.
Artists’ Talk and Reception: Tuesday, January 29, 2008 from 6:00-9:00 p.m.

Chaffey College and the Wignall Museum are pleased to present Inlandia. Like the 2007-2008 College Book of the same name, Inlandia assembles a group of artists who explores disparate ideas that make the Inland Empire a place with a cultural landscape all its own. The artists in Inlandia are based in TX, MN, OR, NY and CA, but regardless of their proximity to the Inland area, their works are informed directly by this regions political or social landscape or investigate ideas relevant to the IE community. In Inlandia explores the Inland Empire’s status as the fastest growing region in Southern California, the resulting suburban sprawl and ecological impact on the area, the beauty and inspiration of the landscape in the sprawling IE territory, and the characters that make this region unique and diverse. Artists utilize various media to comment on, record and realize the Inland Empire.

Inlandia features work by Edith Abeyta (CA), Adam Belt (CA), Sasha Bezzubov (NY), Margarita Cabrera (TX), Misty Cervantes(CA), Samantha Fields (CA), The Institute for Figuring (CA), Roman Jaster (CA), Sant Khalsa (CA), Kimberly Kolba (OR), Amy Maloof (CA), Michelle Mayer (CA), Thomas McGovern (CA), Jessica Newman-Skrentny (CA), David Rathman (MN), Alex Slade(CA), Jessica Swanson (CA), and Roger Tilton (CA).

Megan Geckler at BGFA, 5th and Main St, Downtown LA

"Set a course for wayward schemes", 2008
Opening reception Thursday January 10, 6-9pm
BGFA, 5th and Main Streets, Downtown LA

"Set a course for wayward schemes" is a site-specific architectural installation assembled from thousands of strands of flagging tape, a colorful plastic ribbon utilized by surveyors to demarcate space on construction sites, mass-produced in a variety of bright colors. These ribbons are arranged into an interference stripe pattern inside the street-level windows that wrap around the corner of 5th and Main Streets. Florescent lights are mounted to the floor and ceiling, causing the piece to glow from within and illuminate the translucent material.

A depth of about five feet separates the front and rear planes of stripes. This distance between the front and rear planes will create an optical illusion of kinetic movement as viewers walk or drive past it. This phenomenon occurs as a result of the combination of our sensory system with the physics of light. Often disorientation is experienced when the stripe patterns intersect and appear to slide in opposite directions. The end result resembles an updated three-dimensional version of string art that shares the seemingly kinetic territory of the Op Art and Light+Space movements. These site-specific projects are also strongly influenced by minimalism, but retain a sense of play and delight.

This project was made possible by a generous material donation by Irwin Industrial Supply Company and a Durfee Artists' Resource for Completion Grant.

Barbara Zucker at Another Year in L.A.
Posted by ayi at 2007-10-05 11:03:23

Opening Reception, Saturday, October 6, 7-10pm

1pm - 4pm, Sunday

Closed Monday and Saturday

For online directions and maps, go to
http://www.anotheryearinla.com/Directions.htm

Opening this Saturday (yes, Saturday not the usual Friday night receptions),
ANOTHER YEAR IN LA is very proud to present, BARBARA ZUCKER:TIME SENSITIVE.

Press Release

This will be the second exhibition in the history of our gallery that we have
had the opportunity to present a forty year survey of a remarkable artist who
has never had a solo show in Los Angeles.

For BARBARA ZUCKER:TIME SENSITIVE, the gallery space will be transformed into a
sculptural environment (not an installation or site specific; two terms the
artist says she loves to hate) replete with wallpaper, furniture and sculptural
objects that reinforce the Time Sensitive experience. The show reflects a
survey a sculpture works by Ms. Zucker from the forty year period of 1966 –
2006. This exhibition will be accompanied by a song (played intermittently) by
Barbara’s late aunt entitled, “Painting Pictures”, from 1950, about famous
people in Hollywood making art as a fashionable activity during that era. This
song becomes ironic as well since despite a considerable showing record, this is
Barbara Zucker’s Los Angeles debut solo exhibition.

Zucker’s work has been referenced to ask and answer questions at the same from
works emanating from beauty and plastic surgery practices to the observation
of facial aging as the blueprint for the materialization of both small and
large scale sculptural works.

Music:

3 movements for Cello and Bass by Veronika Krausas
Performers: David Meyer (cello) & PJ Wyderka (double bass)
The cello and bass, like the two display cases in the Seattle installation, are juxtaposed at either end of the central chamber. Their sound travels between and illuminates the central space. The music opens to the sky presenting aural jewels.

Composer Veronika Judita Krausas was born in Sydney, Australia and raised from the age of four in Canada. Her works have been performed in Canada, the United States, Australia, Germany (at the Darmstadt Music Festival), the Netherlands and Romania. She has been commissioned by Motion Ensemble, the Penderecki String Quartet, Continuum Music, and Ergo Projects. Since 1998 Krausas has been producing multi-media presentations in Los Angeles that incorporate her works with dance, acrobatics and video presentations. Mnemosyne, a CD of her chamber music, was released in 2002 by Motion Ensemble in Canada. Her works for duo guitar were released on FOOD: New Music for Guitar Duo in 2005. Her book of graffiti photography IN + ON is available at lulu.com. She is currently on faculty at the Thornton School of Music at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.


Poetry:

Molly Bendall was born in Richmond, Virginia. Her first book of poems After Estrangement won the Peregrine Smith Poetry Prize in 1992. Her second book Dark Summer was published in 1999 by Miami University Press, which was followed by Ariadne's Island (also by Miami University Press) in 2002. She has received the Eunice Tietjens Prize from Poetry magazine, the Lynda Hull Poetry Award from Denver Quarterly, and two Pushcart Prizes. She currently teaches at the University of Southern California and lives in Venice, California.

Daniel Tiffany's collection of poetry, "Puppet Wardrobe," appeared from Parlor Press in 2006; he has published translations of works by Sophocles, Georges Bataille, and the Italian poet, Cesare Pavese. His critical works include Radio Corpse (Harvard University Press, 1995) and Toy Medium: Materialism and Modern Lyric (University of California Press, 2000), the latter named one of the "Best Books of 2000" by the Los Angeles Times Book Review. His poetry has appeared in many journals, including Tin House, Boston Review, and the Paris Review. He lives in Venice, California and teaches at the University of Southern California.

Atomic Particulars: New Work by Dave Adey at Spacecraft
Posted by tmuller at 2007-09-05 17:44:17

Atomic Particulars: New Work by David Adey

September 8th - October 12th, 2007

Opening reception: Saturday, September 8th, 6 to 9pm


Location:
Spacecraft Gallery
2865 North Park Way (Behind the North Park Theater)
San Diego, Ca 92104
http://www.spacecraftgallery.com

Gallery Hours: by appointment


Spacecraft Gallery 2007 monthly exhibitions continue with works by San Diego artist David Adey.

The works created by David Adey inspire a sense of strange regality - the sacred and profane, the high and low of culture, often requiring the artist an epic provision of labor and faith in the contemporary processes of art making. With this new body of work, as with much of his art, each of Adey's pieces make specific demands of the creative process, viewing, and critique of the work. All of this effort would be crazy-making and exhausting but for the transcendent nature of these objects and bizarre allusions which flood forth. To this end, Dave is a master of the experiential jolt and the end visual effect within his work.

In 2002, David received his M.F.A. in Sculpture from Cranbrook Academy of Art in Michigan. He actively exhibits his sculpture and drawings and has had recent shows in Los Angeles, San Diego, Detroit, Finland, and Berlin.

David has an active studio practice pursuing sculpture, furniture design and graphic design.

"Membrane"
Autumn Harrison and Sophia Allison

June 9 - July 6, 2007
Opening Reception: June 9, 2007, 7-10pm

Held in conjunction with the Northeast Los Angeles Arts Organization's Second Saturday Gallery Night

MORYORK Gallery

4959 York Blvd – at York and Ave. 50

Los Angeles, CA 90042

323.376.4428

Gallery hours: by appointment


MORYORK Gallery is proud to present a collaborative exhibition by artists Autumn Harrison and Sophia Allison featuring a large wall installation and five abstract mixed-media sculptures.



Materials, structure, pattern and metamorphosis are the focus of this first collaborative project between the artists. Working with the initial concept of a rectangular box, the artists dissect the object’s design, dimensions, and materials, and create works that juxtapose the original uses of these components. The box’s initial function as a container is turned inside-out and gives way to organic shapes and spatial manipulation. What once contained space now becomes flat and small details become central themes. Works are connected through similar form, content and media, while each work relies on direction from the preceding work for its final aesthetic result. Many of the materials and patterns are repeated throughout the exhibition, becoming increasingly embellished or exaggerated within each piece. The large wall installation, Rind, features over 300 individual hand-cut patterns from materials including felt, sandpaper, shopping bags and gift wrap. Membrane is a true collaboration that reflects a new direction for both artists.

His first opera, being performed in O.C. this month, premiered in 1956.

With more than 230 productions and 700 performances in the U.S. and Europe, Carlisle Floyd's "Susannah" is one of the most popular American operas, second perhaps only to "Porgy and Bess."

Architect Rem Koolhaas saw what Vegas didn't have, not what it needed

Dutch architect's Guggenheim Hermitage Museum closes at the Venetian Hotel, evidence that the city's visitors seek glitz and gambling, not art and culture.

LAS VEGAS -- Like a lot of Las Vegas marriages, the one between the Venetian Hotel and the Guggenheim Museum was born of some seriously misplaced optimism. Presided over by the Dutch architect Rem Koolhaas, with St. Petersburg's Hermitage Museum standing by as a comically out-of-place bridesmaid, the union was planned in the late 1990s, when the Guggenheim brand and the transformative power of high-design architecture both seemed unassailable.
