pblog: 22 February 2006
I added William Betts to the
imagists page. I saw his work yesterday at Peter Miller Gallery in Chicago - where I'm never dissapointed visually or conceptually. If you go to his web site read about how he makes the paintings.
Also, at Rhona Hoffman gallery there was a large image installation from Italian artist Stephano Arienti. I have larger digital images, but you can see some images
here on the Rhona Hoffman website. As you can see in these images the piece combined large (found) images combined with various samples of material. So perceptually it shifted from material to pictorial and actual to virtual (two rudiments in one). A former Civic studio participant from Calvin, Michelle Vondiziano works at this gallery, and former GV Illustration student Lorene Hospidaar works around the corner at Carrie Seacrest Gallery.
I've added another
P-Web Lectures. This one is on
good looking. It relates to
studio moto number 6.
We now have:
- good looking
- History Documentation and the Image examples of images that deal with "what happened" as source, inspiration, content. See the description under studio moto on the course wiki for a complete description.
- Vitamin P these images are from the book Vitamin P. I'll encorporate them later into moto sets, but for now check them out. (you can see some of the "moto" categories in itallics at the end of the text at the top. There are many examples of image and site/installation.
- SpacePlane here is a set of images that explore the relationship of planes to space and site.
- Desire and Identity
Be sure to have studio work to engage on Friday. Also, post your studio ideas to the wiki somewhere either on your id page or linked to another page.
