"Chronicles Of Americana" at DTR Modern.

I have an art opening on Thursday, March 11, 2010 at DTR Modern in Boston. The show is titled "Chronicles of Americana" and features my art along side Damien Hurst, Andy Warhol, and Roy Lichtenstein. This is my first show with DTR Modern and I am looking forward to the opening and working with their amazing staff.

If you are in the Boston area please stop by and check it out.

The Suitcase: Collage art by Kareem Rizk.

I just received a link to Kareem Rizk's blog which has updates about his new shows and miscellaneous art happenings. Kareem contacted me a few years back and we have exchanged e mails since that time about art, collage, transfers, etc..

I am a big fan of Kareem's collage work. His working mediums include collage, acrylic, oil pastel, pencil, solvent transfers and acrylic transfers. His subject matter is based in typography, vintage photographs and bold use of color blocking. Kareem has been blurring the lines of digital and analog by taking his collages into the computer and manipulating them for a new look.

You can check out his blog here and other works here.

The Artwork Of Linden Frederick

I was fortunate enough to catch Linden Frederick's latest show at Forum Gallery in Manhattan. These particular works were smaller than he has done in the past but they were just as powerful as his larger artwork. The pieces were hung equidistance from one another in a line around the entire gallery space. 50 in total. All of the works were 12" x 12" with a 4" black stained frame. Frederick's work is breathtaking. He paints the mundane objects that exist in rural America and makes them beautiful. He captures the light just right. It is reminiscent of Edward Hopper.

My favorite piece in the show was "Seagull Motel" which is the top image in the post. The lights seemed to glow perfect in the time of day. There are no humans and no signs of movement. It has an air of tranquility and a certain peaceful quality.

You can see his work here and here.
