Ah Xian

user@domain.com — 2012-06-11T14:40:49+08:00

Ah Xian is a Chinese-Australian contemporary artist interested in the human body and how contemporary craft can make it meaningful. Ah Xian uses many different techniques and materials, based on ancient Chinese crafts skills, including porcelain, cloisonne, lacquer, jade, ox-bone inlay and bronze as well as concrete. His most recent work is a new body of bronze casts. Craft Australia asked Ah Xian about sustainability both in his contemporary art practice and for traditional Chinese craftsmanship as well as about the themes of urban displacement and cultural remembrance in his works.

Van Gogh was just one artist that liked to paint and draw shoes. Shoes have as much character as people and require a lot of skill to do well.

Françoise Nielly: Painting

user@domain.com — 2012-02-29T21:50:54+08:00

The latest work from Paris based painter Françoise Nielly. “Françoise Nielly’s painting is expressive, exhibiting a brute force, a fascinating vital energy. Oil and knife combine to sculpt her images from a material that is, at the same time, biting and incisive, and sensual. Whether she paints the human body or portraits, the artist takes a risk : her painting is sexual, her colors free, exuberant, surprising, even explosive, the cut of her knife incisive, her color pallet dazzling. ” (via artist website)

Ansel Adams: 1902-1984

user@domain.com — 2012-02-29T21:34:33+08:00

http://www.dailyartfixx.com/2012/02/20/ansel-adams-1902-1984-2/ Born in San Francisco, California on February 20, 1902, Ansel Adams was an American photographer and environmentalist known for his technical expertise and his stunning black-and-white photographs of the American Southwest, Yosemite National Park, and the California coast. Considered a hyperactive child, Adams was unsuccessful in the schools he had attended and as a result, his father and aunt tutored him at home. Leading a somewhat solitary childhood, Adams spent much of his time in nature, exploring the beaches and the heights facing San Francisco Bay.

Van Gogh’s Ear – What Really Happened?

user@domain.com — 2012-01-22T13:08:50+08:00

Most art fans have heard the story of Vincent van Gogh cutting off his own ear and giving it to his favourite prostitute. ...The story goes that the combination of van Gogh’s heavy drinking of absinthe, smoking, and possible poisoning from lead based oil paints, led the artist to a madness which caused him to slash off his ear on December 23, 1888, and then commit suicide in 1890. In their book “Van Gogh’s Ear: Paul Gauguin and the Pact of Silence”, Hamburg, Germany based art historians Hans Kaufman and Rita Wildegans present a different theory. The pair spent ten years reviewing French police investigations, witness accounts, and the artist’s personal letters. They believe that fellow artist and friend Paul Gauguin, who was known to have had a collection of weapons including fencing swords, cut off van Gogh’s ear in self-defense.

...Produced by Associação Cultural Videobrasil ... Films, drawing, installations, theatre, opera: William Kentridge, one of the most important names in South African contemporary art, easily glides between different media, in a combination of references and techniques that render his work unique. In this documentary, which follows him through Johannesburg and Brazil, he speaks of the impact of the landscape and the social contradictions on his work, and comments on the life of characters like Felix Teitlebaum, his alter ego. Shot in digital video and in highly grainy super-8 stock, in a reference to the author's charcoal drawings, the film shows the setting up of a previously unseen installation featuring virtual fish and a real car, commissioned in 2000 by Associação Cultural Videobrasil for the Contemporary African Art Show in São Paulo.

Catherine Zacchino – Junker Jane

user@domain.com — 2011-12-31T10:53:33+08:00

My art consists of one of a kind soft sculpture art dolls, original paintings and prints made from my original works.... Most of my dolls were made from single pieces of fabric — one for the front and one for the back. ... I find vintage fabrics and clothing to be huge inspirations for me, and it even inspired my business name, Junker Jane. ... Many things inspire me to come up with my art doll characters, but my main influence comes from my childhood — images from make-believe stories and books that I read. ... These influences have stood with me into my adult years, and I think this contradiction shows itself in my work, as my dolls seem to hold one foot in innocence and another in the shadows.

Good artists make final adjustments that go beyond where average ones stop - look at these four pictures and notice how the artist is tweaking her work from the first one where most people would be more than happy with.

This is a fantastic exhibition - I viewed it on Monday this week. I am sure some at the school have seen it already - if you have not...it really is worth seeing. Many of the sculptures are from the later period of his life and are not popularly know. The “development” work is also not something you would not normally see. ...The screen shot was taken from the site http://www.marinabaysands.com/Singapore-Attractions/ArtScience-Museum/Whats-On/ go there for more info.
