Jewish artists and Jewish wisdom have combined inspirational forces in "Voices & Visions," a poster art exhibit making its way to Spertus Institute this month.
An initiative of the Harold Grinspoon Foundation, Voices & Visions began its quest to communicate Jewish ideas through art by pairing Jewish graphic design artists with quotes from Jewish luminaries and classic texts. The result is a collection of 18 posters that will be open t... [more]

Die Ausstellung SIEGESIKONEN - transFORM ist ein Versuch die diversen Facetten der Metamorphosen zu veranschaulichen, die sowohl ganze Nationen als auch uns selbst persönlich betreffen. Über 100 Künstler verschiedenen Alters und Nationalität nehmen teil. In Bildern, Collagen, multimedialen Arbeiten und dokumentarischen Fotos, welche manchmal sehr dramatische, manchmal lustige und oft auch absurde Ereignisse aus den 80er und 90er Jahren festhalten, betrachten die Künstler unterschiedliche Wege g...

Being overtly spiritual doesn’t seem to be the norm in the contemporary art world. It’s amusing, considering that contemporary art world is more or less a faith-based system that combines ‘an uneasy godlessness with a religious memory’1: the cult of a faithful few, visiting hallowed premises of esoteric objects, where meanings are made and unmade by the high priests of scholarship.
Thoughts like these are bound to cross one’s mind when one is en route to the first Indian solo exhi... [more]
Renata Jaworska‘s "119-minute circle" project also called "a dancing congress" was held on 14th of march 2010 at Whitechapel Gallery in London.
She invited representatives of sixteen different nations who gathered at the "The Nature of the Beast" – international, round table to form a live human exhibition.
The piece was instigated in front of an installation by Goshka Macuga that explored Pablo Picasso’s Guernica exhibition at the Whitec... [more]
Barbara Ash’s recent collection of works challenges stereotypical ideas about women
2/2
"I think it’s depressing that girls are constantly surrounded by messages that are telling them they are not acceptable unless they follow this narrow orthodoxy,” said Barbara Ash, whose sculptures and drawings have strong roots in women’s struggle with the image centric world. “It marginalises the majority and puts a focus on superficial issues rather than in de...

Don’t Fret’s work is carefree and hilarious not only through the characters but also through the texts. It depicts the common life of everyday people that encompasses the issues related to teenage, adulthood, old age, deprived sex-life, relationships, fights, etc. The works flirts with the genres of portrait, figurative and landscape painting (in terms of the setting they are in). Since they depicted scenes are closely related to us we can infer they are our biographies. Unlike Tim Arroyo th... [more]

A Portrait of the Psyche
Persona is a word that can mean that aspect or part of one’s personality that is deliberately shown to the world, or in the Jungian sense, and hearkening back to the etymology of the word (from the Greek “prosōpon”), a theatrical mask which covers the wearer.
In the current exhibition at the Therese A. Maloney Gallery, director and curator Dr. Virginia Fabbri Butera, by choosing this particular word as both the theme and the title, has opened a dual vision and in... [more]
This is so interesting! The artist here has been painting for a few weeks in public and this exhibit allows people to see how figurative art (oil on canvas and board) is actually made.
I saw some of the works yesterday in the reception area. This is an accomplished artist who is known locally in Canada. Great use of colours! And there is a personal touch here - art expressing emotion and experience. Her paintings of a vulnearable teenager are evokative of a time that passed. This is how... [more]

This artform is very unique. A hybrid between conceptual and traditional art. Made with the help of wild black bears, martens, crows , songbirds, insects, snow, rain and fire. A very unpredicatble process with a reliquary object at the end. Hladik is using "divine" forces to intervene with his semi=readymades, which are then embalmed and preserved... [more]

Bad Behaviour show review
Oct 2012
On the walk from Brixton train station to visit Bad Behaviour, past clothes stalls, car mechanics and food wholesalers which operate underneath the arches – including the wonderfully named ‘Just Yams etc.’ – I wondered how this group exhibition was going to position itself. Would it attempt to engage with the context of Brixton, its independent spirit and history of rebellion and rioting – or was the ‘bad behaviour’ of the title indicative... [more]

I went to the Appropriated Gender opening on Saturday night. So many interesting works of art were spread across three floors, from Kandy Lopez's attitude-filled giant portraits to the thoughtful craft-inspired works of Martin Casuso, an adorable painting ("Kissable") of one of JC Bravo's big-headed cabezones and a latch-hook rug by Kathleen Kranack that will remind you, "It's Your Fault."
Artist Karla Caprali has three works in Appropriated Gender.
I could go on about some of the works, which include sculpture, ins... [more]
