JULIEN GARDAIR ABCKL IS ABEFILTUU - drawing #10
“In this world, hands could be teeth, could be eyes, could be hair, could be mouth…  Forms grow free in drawings, live their transformations in animations and invent absurd subjects in paintings. All is moving back and forth, from the studio to the street and experience to imagination. A space in between where each viewer is welcome to make his own interpretation.”

LISA IGLESIAS“Pattern”“Rather than working in a linear path, the projects I make are based on constellations of association. Whether papier-mâché rifle, pencil drawing, or hand-made celebration banner, threads of renewal, re-historicization and futility weave throughout.” »

The title is a play on “Rebel Without A Cause” by James Dean and “Rebel Without A Pause” by Public Enemy. In this case an interest edible structures and three legged cats lead us to this perfect title.”

JEREMIAH MANDEL“Celebration is a funeral for old ideas. The ones you come back to over and over until they are fleshed out, or not. This book turns those images to stone, solidifying them in whatever state they were found. A proper burial…”

ANDREW C. ROBINSONRiot Labels
 




“This print is part of a larger project titled “Bloodlines”. These hand printed silk screens were run in a small edition and some were used as labels for bottles and vessels used to adorn art objects in a sculptural installation and a series of photographs.

“The labels and text were rendered in a loose gestural form in the spirit of the hands of artists such as  Dubuffet and the content inspired by the graffiti of the Paris protests in May 1968.”

NATALIA PORTER “Denture” Denture Digital drawing cut out archival ink Dim 4 1/2” X 3” (unframed) 8” X 10 ” (framed)”“My training is in the visual arts and industrial design. These disciplines purposefully inform my work. The sculptures, installations and drawings, along with the functional objects and places that I have created all come about through an exploration of ideas that include a balanced experimentation between technological processes and traditional craft. With this in mind, it is important to recognize that I work in response to my surroundings, by interacting with the people, places and objects I come across that I alter in order to assign them expanded meanings and/or additional readings. I create objects and experiences that hopefully lead to critical thought, suggest new ways to perceive reality, and help reduce the boundaries that exist between art and design.”
