While the guy that Sean Connery played in Red October was sweating bullets in his sub, young Dick was racing cars down highway 15 in the souther tier of NY.  And by the time he was my age, right now as  I write this (24), he had just started in the car business.  The fixin up part that is.  So now Ole’ Dick owns his own shop here in B-Town, or wait a minute “the greater Johnson City area”.  And Im the kinda guy that has car problems, weather its crashen em or neglectin em, they finds there way to the shop.  And one day I was driving around the C-dubb, and I bring it in for a heater core or some similar issue and now I get a different story every time I go in.  Actually, he tells so many, that once in awhile he’ll stop and say “did I already tell ya this one?”.  And I think for a few seconds… uhhhh possibly my memory isn’t working right now.

This show is a continued exploration of using candy to create art. Candy holds memories from childhood—color, smell, texture and taste—that evoke feelings of being carefree and uninhibited. I’m fascinated with the dichotomy of using those kind of feelings to create something so structured and pixelated as video game imagery. There’s a beauty to the perfect arrangement and a nostalgia to the edgy and “blocky” feel to it all—“This is what they looked like when I was a kid.” Because computers are continually striving to perfectly reproduce reality, it’s almost refreshing to go back and live in the world where computers and the real world had very little in common… a fantasy land of Space Invaders and lollipops.

Gene Ray George showing at CORE New Art Space until 16 Oct.

Mark Penner-Howell’s latest body of work, The New Normal, takes a satirical look at the culture of fear and failure created by the ‘down’ economy, and reinforced by the 24/7 news cycle.

Showing at Plus Gallery January 21 – February 25, 2011

Artist’s reception: Friday, January 21st from 6-9pm

In her newest body of work, Furness creates an epic environment that surrounds the individual, both within the painted works themselves as well as in an encompassing multi-media installation piece. The paintings explore the macro- and microcosms of cultures transformed by destruction in the past and reformed by a new view of culture today. Within these works, the psychology of the individual is explored through the metaphor of the swimmer, conjuring a sense of both hope and hopelessness, personal ruin and rebirth. In the installation, the viewer will be invited to stand before a 20-foot long wall-composition depicting ruins that are both familiar and foreign, moving in a space between as a video projection brings the iconic swimmer to life. The viewer will be invited to take part in the complexity of the work, as one is immersed in sublime destruction and transformed by a continuous sense of falling apart and coming together, a fertile unraveling that reveals what is now, new, and coming brought together with what is lost, fragmented, and forgotten.

Laurie Maves, a LolliPoppist (the only one I know but I have been assured there are others), is a Visual Artist and Live Painter based here in Denver.

She recently spent some time in Ethiopia with the Cunningham Foundation and created some lovely signs of affection for the people living there.

Just another way Denver artists are making the world a more beautiful place, though the mountains and people of Ethiopia scarcely need any help in that regard.

Pellucid by Boulder-based artist Rebecca DiDomenico is a site-specific installation featuring a gallery transformed into a fantastical cave designed as an immersive environment. Visitors are invited to walk through the space, filled with 60,000 hand-made mica scales and dangling stalactites. Pressed into each of the scales are jewel-like butterfly wings and brightly colored pieces of plastic trash. For DiDomenico, the wings and the trash meet at the junction of theephemeral and physical worlds. The butterflies quite literally turn into dust when they are touched. But the plastic is ubiquitous, unable to decompose, with its abundance transforming it into a feature of the natural world.

Rebecca DiDomenico was born in Greenbrae, California. Her work has been exhibited at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art, the San Francisco Craft and Folk Art Museum, and the Denver Art Museum, among others. She lives and works in Boulder, Colorado.

Pellucid will be presented in the Project Gallery from September 28, 2010 through January 16, 2010. The opening celebration will be held on Friday, October 1, 2010.

Great photography. He’ll be at Art Out Loud this Saturday. Say hi. Visit the amazing Full website of David Shults.

AJ Fosik uses wood, paint, and found materials to create three-dimensional animalistic beings. Fosik’s sculptures begin with individually cut and varnished pieces of wood that are then arranged into symmetrical and hypnotic patterns and become the faces of mythical entities. Hypnotic eyes pierce the viewer’s gaze and sharp teeth protrude from the mouths of Fosik’s creations that are embellished with a consistent rhythm of vibrant color and shape. Either constructed as freestanding forms or wall-mounted pieces, Fosik’s work references taxidermy practices and is evocative of American Folk Art. Similar to Bill McRight’s new body of work, Fosik’s alluring constructions are often inspired by subversive cultural influences that shift complacency and rely on the reappropriation of familiar symbols and images.

Artistic duos, slam poets and more at final-Friday celebration.

The final Friday of the month, the Denver Art Museum (DAM) feels less like a field trip and more like a night out with offbeat art encounters, unique detours of the DAM collection, artmaking, local music, cash bar, munchies and more. This month, Untitled #31 (Two), July 30 from 6 to 10 p.m., celebrates the Biennial of the Americas and other art related things that come in twos.

The DAM also hosts a satellite exhibition of The Nature of Things, the Biennial exhibition located in Civic Center Park. At Untitled, guests can check out cutting-edge video art in the Fuse Box gallery and talk to the Biennial curatorial duo, Luisa A. Orozco and Jürgen Ureña to hear how they teed up their selections for the project. Orozco’s My Body is a Weapon features 20 works by artists who use the body as signs, weapons and tools. Snapshots, curated by Ureña, features video art from several Central American artists who explore portraiture from different perspectives.

Cafe Nuba combines spoken word, live music and performance art. For the Biennial Edition, Cafe Nuba brings its pairs of poets to march in two-by-two representing the best of Denver and the Americas. Featured poets include Quetzal Guerrero, Zakiya Harris, Erwin Thomas and Jennifer Johns. Jams by DJ Cavem Moetavation and special guests keep the crowds moving to the words. Visitors can grab a partner and step one-two with the help of 23 Skidoo, Denver’s high-energy swing dance couple. The pair will perform and hold a mini Lindy Hop lesson. Breathe studio presents the Gutter Bunny bicycle-art project. Take in the virtual urban landscape on imaginary two wheels and find peace within the city surroundings. Joan and Charlie from Buntport Theater return to their puddle in the 3rd floor freight elevator and perform a new installment of Joan and Charlie Discuss Tonight’s Theme. Local DJ Johnny D spins in the atrium.

At Camp Wapiyapi, a retreat near Estes Park offering respite for kids dealing with childhood cancer, ill children and their siblings don’t escape the toll their suffering takes so much as they learn that they’re not alone with it. They get to take a break from it all and have what every kid wants – to relax and have a good time. And then, in one of the nicest ways possible, they give back to the community that took them in.

Quick and easy guide for you newbies to #denverart: Denver Art In One Day.

Please help me spread this message. Today, Denver is losing about 500 jobs.

In fact every day, Denver, you lose about 500 jobs.

But your creative sector is creating jobs. Every day, your music and art industries create good high-paying jobs deep within local communities. Together, your designers, artists, musicians, and creative talent make up for Colorado’s 5th largest business sector, in both revenues and jobs.

Why is your art so essential? Because your art and music industries are the largest sustainable exports in your city’s history. Because the global art and music industry is fantastically lucrative: 1% of the global art market share would double Denver’s economy overnight.

And yet you are cutting your creative education programs, Denver!

While art and music generate thousands of jobs, your government’s budget has forced schools to scale back, unavoidably attacking the Arts — English, Theater, Music, etc — in record numbers.

Right now, school is nearly in session. We need help. One in six children will be denied even a single art or music class. Help us enrich our neighborhoods and communities with sustainable, creative education programs.

Please donate $5 today and help Denver Art Society support our creative education programs.

This is an urgent affair. Schools need this money now. Sadly, the most artless schools are often the most in need of art’s benefits, art’s jobs, and art’s revenues.

Consider this. Your bands are performing across the globe. Your art is sold in every country. And yet you’re cutting creative education programs!

You’re losing jobs. Our creative sector sustained us through these last two years — creative education is the easy way to bring more jobs, more revenues for schools and parks, and more opportunities for our children for the next two years, and beyond.

We can reinvigorate creative education in Denver, starting today, but we need your support. You can help spread this message — and combat artlessness by raising awareness of the artless everywhere.

Please donate $5 or more today:

Thank you for helping us get here.

Now showing at Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art. Denver artist Tony Ortega has long been renowned for chronicling the richness of the Hispanic experience. He utilizes his signature style of bold coloration, simplified forms, anonymous figures and cultural icons to explore community life, family, urban and rural sectors, youth culture, popular culture and cultural politics. Paramount in his artistic intent is the discovery of the relationship between humans and their circumstances. In a country where demographics are rapidly changing, issues of multiculturalism and hybridity are tantamount. Much of this exhibition deals with those who have crossed and continue to cross the borders, to secure a better life, obtain work, and to ensure the welfare and safety of their families. To Ortega the border is porous, with layered implications.

Through monotypes, serigraphs, charcoal drawings and a mural installation we get a glimpse of the melding of histories, traditions, culture and politics of our ever expanding and diversified population. Additionally, Ortega will create murals in collaboration with students from “I Have A Dream” Foundation of Boulder County and The Family Learning Center. Following their display at BMoCA during the exhibition, the murals will be on view at the Boulder Public Library and Denver Public Library.

Sandra Phillips Gallery
July 9 – 31, 2010
Opening Reception: Friday July 9 from 6-8pm

Artist Patricia Tinajero from Ecuador will explore the nature of things thru video and experiential installation. Tinajero is interested in objects as the product of metamorphosis, in particular the recycing of object, the capacity of those objects to survive cycles of production and consumption, use and abuse. Exploring the regeneration process reconciled in the dialectical understanding of process of the artist, these discarded materials weave into sculptural forms which become installations.

The RedLine Exhibit “Artist’s Footprints” will also include artist Patricia Tinajero in partnership with the Biennial of the Americas 2010.

Solo Installation at Emmanuel Gallery
July 9 – September 3 2010
Artists Reception: Friday July 9 from 6:00-10:00pm

In “Personal Locator Beacon,” Vaughan will include 17th century cartouche designs colliding with industrial light components; decorative architectural medallions with pink electronic wire; crocheted white lace flowers, leading to twinkling LED lights and functional fans; the Golden Chalice Vine plant, whose scent creates amorous effects in humans, with infra-red electronic devices. As the viewer walks through the space, they trigger a ‘wave’ of fans and lights, and consequently a wave of neurotransmitters for LOVE and call signals to the outer world. “Personal Locator Beacon” alters the entire gallery, inside and out, to serve as a beacon for their love.

Summer hours for the gallery will be Tuesday – Friday 11-5 and Saturday from 12-4. For more information, please visit our website at emmanuelgallery.org or call. Emmanuel Gallery is honored to be an exhibit partner with the Biennial of the Americas.
