Glenn Ruga will premiere a phenomenal collection of masterworks from Bruce Davidson, Reza, Eugene Richards, Rina Castelnuovo, and Platon walking the fine line between doc art—or art doc—in On the Razor’s Edge: Between Documentary and Fine Art Photography

Amy Smith-Stewart will debut a smashing curated show entitled What Do You Believe In, featuring a select group of  of sixteen artists— Jen DeNike, Hank Willis Thomas, Leah Beeferman, Stuart Hawkins, Yamini Nayar, Fay Ray, Luke Stettner, Anissa Mack, Kenya Robinson, Xaviera Simmons, Nicole Cherubini, Nyeema Morgan, Sara Greenberger Rafferty, Matthew Spiegelman, Daniel Gordon, Ignacio Lang—and explores how photography shapes our ideas—who we are, why we do the things we do, how our thinking happens, and where it evolves.

Claude Grunitzky will delight the senses and the imagination with work from Evangelia Kranioti, Irmelie Krekin, and Christian Witkin in the Curse and the Gift: “Photography is a way of life, and as we all become touch-screen photographers, emailing and Facebooking away, art photography takes on an entirely new meaning in its role in helping us to understand the way we live now. With our modern societies in flux, and many forms of cohesion in jeopardy, it helps to reflect on those changing human dynamics by looking at images that were composed calmly, away from the pressure of instant delivery.”

Paul D. Miller aka DJ Spooky, That Subliminal Kid  will stupefy the senses with Sinfonia Antarctica (The Book of Ice). For the New York Photo Festival, Paul D. Miller aka DJ Spooky takes a look at how the role of the “archive” of Antarctic history—in photography, graphic design, and contemporary composition—has shaped some of the ways we think about contemporary digital media aesthetics. In conjunction with NYPH’12, Miller will present material from his recent Book of Ice project through the prism of an intersection of sculpture, architecture, live performance, moving image, and digital media installation.

They will also feature juried work from the New York Photo Festival Invitational, an online submission-based review platform run by the festival. More information available at http://nyph.at/

Mighty Tanaka Presents Shifting Perspectives, a solo show by Alexandra Pacula
Opens Friday, May 11th, 6pm – 9pm
The Manhattan Bridge, standing like a proud cobalt giant, stretching its outreached arms to connect two landscapes and bring people together.  With feet of stone resting peacefully in the muddy waters of the East River, the steel structure radiates with an electric individuality that beams across boroughs.  This symbolic artery of New York City possesses an astute flair of personality that serves as an inspiration and muse to the people who are lucky enough to be touched by its magic.  Mighty Tanaka is proud to bring you our next show, Shifting Perspectives, a solo exhibition featuring the artwork of Alexandra Pacula, as she interprets the vibrant nuances of this world recognized landmark.
Shifting Perspectives exemplifies Alexandra Pacula’s trademark style of painting dubbed “Visual Intoxication”.  The abstract yet photo realist nature of her work provides dynamic movement to an otherwise stationary object, allowing it to come to life and move freely around the canvas.   A virtual vortex of light and motion envelops the artwork, which tempts the eye and draws in the viewer.
With a confident hand, Alexandra Pacula demonstrates the expansive versatility of her technique through the inspirational power of her subject matter.  Her ability to manipulate oil paint into a highly complex and mind bending experience solidifies the various Shifting Perspectives of her artwork.
OPENING RECEPTION:
Friday, May 11th, 2012
6:00PM – 9:00PM
(Show closes June 8th, 2012)
111 Front St, Suite 224
Brooklyn, NY 11201

This piece is the perfect metaphor for art fairs which collect an ungainly mass of elements into one setting. The logistics of art fairs are daunting: too many exhibitors in too small of a space with too many viewers trying to squeeze past each other to view too much art. Pulse managed to balance all of these contradictory elements.

The exhibitors trended towards work that explored craftsmanship with a strong showing of painting – including a collection of small abstractions by Andrew Masullo (currently in the Whitney Biennial) at Daniel Weinberg Gallery and Michelle Muldrow’s paintings of abstracted store aisles at Jen Bekman Gallery.

The taxidermy horse sculpture with giant anime eyes and roller skates for hooves entitled “Cupcake” by the artist Tinkebell at Torch Gallery of Amsterdam was a huge draw.  Its neighbor in the next booth, the figures of “Brighton Beach Bench” by Will Kurtz at Mike Weiss Gallery, was a group of life-sized figures covered with collaged magazine pages. There was an element of subverted realism to both pieces that was heightened by their unplanned and unrelated proximity to each other.

Carrie Secrist Gallery showed colored pencil works by Anne Lindberg that were accompanied by a matching sculpture composed of colored thread stretched across the booth. The thread appeared to be drawn lines that playfully distorted vision from a distance.

The Impulse section of the fair featured emerging galleries and solo artist shows. Brooklyn was represented by Black and White Gallery featuring sculptures by Peter Brock, Causey Contemporary representing Jordan Eagles, and Porter/Contemporary showing paintings by Jason Bryant which combined images from classic cinema with skateboard graphics.

E-VAPOR-8
May 5 – 18, 2012
Opening: Saturday May 5, 7:00 p.m. – 10:00 p.m.
Gallery hours: Thursday – Sunday, 2:00pm – 6:00pm and by appointment
CURATED BY FRANCESCA GAVIN
“I would only believe in a God that knows how to dance.” – Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Friedrich Nietzsche, 1885

“E-Vapor-8″, titled after a 1992 track by the rave band Altern 8, explores the influence and relationship between contemporary art and rave and electronic music culture. Here everything can be taken from ‘the archive’ and reworked – the surface glare of squeaky voice, the speed of imagery and sound, infantalist fashion, smiley faces, pirate radio, fractal imagery, hyper color fluorescents, sample-style editing processes, found footage of dancing and parties, Spiral Tribe’s politicization, and kiddie-rave pop songs. There are more serious ideas behind the visual and aural melting pot. Ideas around community, technology, intellectual and physical freedom, rebellion and myth-making all play into this wave of contemporary work.

Rave is now positioned, aesthetically and aurally, as a proto universe for contemporary, technology-infused art. House and rave provided some of the first examples of defunct technologies being co-opted and reused by a younger generation for creative purposes. Computer-made graphics once used as rave visuals are now considered precursors to online experimentation. The processes of cut and paste, sampling and looping that were the basis of DIY electronic music are echoed in video editing techniques and online footage amalgams. Early house and rave culture provided a model of democratization of culture, just as contemporary visual artists consider their use of the internet now. The hedonistic drug references of the period are gone. The moment of mass cultural upheaval has passed. We are left with a sense of DIY utopia and the desire to create work that is immediate, sensorial, and at times simply fun.

PARTICIPATING ARTISTS:
Fatima Al Qadiri, Cory Arcangel and Frankie Martin, Rhys Coren, Petra Cortright, Jeremy Deller, Aleksandra Domanovic, Cecile B Evans, Jeffrey Gibson, Alexandra Gorczynski, Leslie Kulesh, Samuel Levack and Jennifer Lewandowski, Marisa Olson, Hannah Perry, Christian J. Petersen (Dumb Eyes), Travess Smalley, Lucy Stokton, and Daniel Swan.
Francesca Gavin is a writer, editor and curator based in London. She is the Visual Arts Editor of Dazed & Confused, the art editor of Twin and a Contributing Editor at AnOther and Sleek Magazine. Her books ‘100 New Artists’, ‘Creative Space’, ‘Hell Bound: New Gothic Art’ and ‘Street Renegades’ are all published by Laurence King.

Moustaches, baseball and letterpress cards

Release Party May 3rd from 6-9pm at the Bergino Clubhouse

Left Field Cards is pleased to announce the release of “Marvelous Moustaches”, the third in the ever expanding series of letterpress baseball cards by Brooklyn-based French artist Amelie Mancini.

Following the success of the “Bizarre Injuries” and “Edible All-Stars” series, Amelie Mancini now takes on baseball and facial hair. “Marvelous Moustaches” features ten ballplayers famous for sporting out-of-the-ordinary moustaches, such as Goose Gossage’s unforgettable horseshoe, Rollie Fingers’s fancy handlebar, Don Mattingly’s classic magnum or Rod Beck’s straight forward trucker moustache.

Left Field Cards brings a unique and playful spin on the trading cards loved and collected by generations of fans: the cards are hand printed and postcard-sized, with space in the back for a note, address, and a stamp in lieu of statistics. Each series plays around an unusual theme, such as weird injuries or food-related names, or in the case of “Marvelous Moustaches”, remarkable facial hair.

Amelie Mancini draws and hand carves each design on a linoleum block, which is then used to print on a Vandercook letterpress. The hand printed cards are packed in a hand sewn vellum wrapper and sold in packs of five cards for $15. They can be purchased online and in a selection of stores in Brooklyn, Chicago, Seattle and Portland.

Amelie Mancini is a French-born painter and printmaker living in Brooklyn, NY. After moving to America in 2006, she fell in love with baseball and started Left Field Cards in 2011. Her cards have been featured in the LA Times and Marie- Claire Italia, and on several sports and design blogs such as Design*Sponge, Juxtapoz, The Citrus Report, Uni-Watch and UrbanDaddy.

The Bergino Baseball Clubhouse is hosting a release party for “Marvelous Moustaches” on May 3rd from 6 to 9pm. In addition to the cards, some of the artist’s large baseball paintings will also be on display in the gallery.

hours: Saturday and Sunday from 1-6PM
In 2002, Mary Westring traveled to Uganda to confront the ongoing abduction of children who were taken by the Lord’s Resistance Army and used as porters, child soldiers and “wives”. She documented these children through individual portraits expressing their pain and suffering.
Ten years later, Mary has again documented these Children of Conflict, this time with young adults who have lived through this horrific past and become the next generation addressing the changing needs of Uganda. Profoundly different from the children depicted ten years ago, this grouping shows healthy, hopeful and joyous young adults who are now attending college.
Mary and her family have worked for many years to bring attention to this crisis through a small but dedicated organization, uccef.org, which continues to provide much needed support for the positive changes in these children’s lives.
Figureworks is honored to be able to showcase these portraits with their stories.

Oil paint and the movement of brushstrokes play an active role in the development of my imagery and composition.  Forms move through the paint and are transformed by the process.  I use sandpaper to erase, building up layers of color that contribute to the final form.  It is both an additive and subtractive process that takes many months.   I draw  using watercolor to discover new imagery and often draw while painting to complete a composition.   My work is often serial with forms recurring and reconfigured in new work. Color is vital for me; I visualize color as specific form.  My paintings utilize large shapes in a small-scale format.

I was born in Paterson New Jersey.  My B.A. in Studio Art is from Fordham University and I hold an M.F.A. in painting from Bard College. I have exhibited my work for over twenty years in numerous groups shows both upstate and in New York City.  I have been awarded artist residencies at Yaddo, Blue Mountain Center and Byrdcliffe.   My drawings were included in “ Winter Selections 2001” at The Drawing Center.  I had my first one person show in New York City, “Squirm”,  in the Spring of 2003 at Holland Tunnel in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.  My second  solo show at Holland Tunnel, “Rainbow Twist”, was in the Fall of 2005.  My home and studio are in Brooklyn.

MANUELA FILIACI

POEMS THAT I CANNOT WRITE AND WISH I COULD

MANUELA FILIACI exhibited her new work at ART 101 from March 23 to April 22.

Filiaci’s ‘poems’ lure us into her world –  suffused with color, mystery, suggestion; do we hear music too?

Filiaci has exhibited extensively in Europe and the US. She was born in Vicenza and came to New York where she earned a BFA from The School of Visual Arts. Her credits include curating at the Parallel Window NY 1979 – 1988, designing the sets and costumes for La Mama Theatre E.T.C. and teaching at the NYU program in Venice.

ART 101 is located at 101 Grand St, Brooklyn NY.  The gallery is open from 1 to 6 Friday through Sunday, or by appointment; 718-302 02242.

Call for Artists: June Installationz
This June, ARTs East New York is hosting a pop-up gallery tour and invites artists in all disciplines to submit work for exhibition relating to the following three themes:
I ART East New York
East New York might be somewhere you visit, the place where you work or the community you call home.  Even if you’ve only heard about the neighborhood, we invite you to explore East New York through your art.  Pieces that most creatively and positively portray the culture, character and community of this Brooklyn destination will be chosen for exhibition.
Juneteenth: A Revelation of Freedom
Juneteenth commemorates the day on which African Americans in Texas, who had been kept enslaved two and a half years past the abolition of slavery, finally received news of their freedom.  For this exhibit, we are requesting works that celebrate this moment of enlightenment, pay homage to ancestors who afforded this autonomy and investigate the African diaspora at large as a legacy of liberation.  Pieces that best honor and examine the legacy of the African experience in the United States will be included in this important exhibit.
Threadz: Untwining Mistaken Messages Within the Fabric of Hip Hop
The tragic murder of Trayvon Martin forces us to think seriously about perceptions of Hip Hop culture and its representations in mainstream society.  The reigning image of Black youth centers on the Hip Hop aesthetic, a mode of expression that can be identified by styles of art and fashion.  We ask artists to examine Hip Hop as a depiction of the urban lifestyle, its reception by the larger public and its potential for positively reflecting the African American youth experience.  This exhibition is being held in honor of Trayvon Martin, and works speaking directly to this heartbreaking death, and its connection to Hip Hop, are especially encouraged.
Entry Requirements:
Submit up to five works per theme for consideration.  Pieces should not exceed 6’ in any dimension and weigh no more than 50 lbs.  E-mail JPEGs of 300 dpi resolution and 4” x 6” size to erika@artseastny.org
Include the name and dimensions of each piece, along with a short description and personal bio.  Entries will be accepted through May 11th at 11pm.  There is no fee for submission or participation.
Selection Process & Accepted Work
A committee will make the final selections for the show and artists will be notified of selection via e-mail at the end of May.  All artists are responsible for delivering their works to ARTs East New York and ensuring their readiness for installation.  Designated appointments for drop-off will be arranged at the beginning of June.
Exhibition Information:
All three exhibitions will be part of a one-night pop-up gallery tour on June 22nd in East New York.  I ART East New York will be displayed in establishments around the New Lots Triangle.  Juneteeth will be showcased about the perimeter of the New Lots Library.  Threadz will have a month long run at the ARTs East New York gallery. ARTs East New York will charge a 10% commission fee for any works sold during the show.  Works not sold will need to be picked up from 851 Hegeman Ave. at a time and date arranged with the artist.
About ARTs East New York:
The mission of ARTs East New York is to provide access, affordability and exposure to the arts for the East New York community while using the arts as a tool for social change. ARTs East New York uses the arts to transform youth culture, enhance neighborhood beautification, and increase civic engagement.
