These vacant buildings are often the product of what Burton refers to as the “rust belt,” areas where industry has moved on, resulting in the disintegration of entire communities. In Tema Celeste, Shana Nys Dambrot wrote, “…these are undeniable compelling subjects, saturated in a sort of rural collapse…yet the morbid lyricism of Burton’s tone is suggestive rather than judgmental…[their] meaning built on cobwebs and ghost stories.” This exhibition also includes a portfolio of images entitled, “What Remains,” made in post-Katrina New Orleans.<br /><br /><div align="center"><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzmch7N78fsfT1R8pBNwkV1sKxtMEvpZ2aJq1Q_ylv9D0T5O9iJtah8gpVbpj7azBZQTmbg1p5E64X-5Qjt03dyTd2cfFT9pVA3aIhYeU5G0dpcNnRM1u3KMj0Pca6LEBUQx-NXYXaF1yK/s1600-h/wendy_burton_422183.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242354347094930834" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzmch7N78fsfT1R8pBNwkV1sKxtMEvpZ2aJq1Q_ylv9D0T5O9iJtah8gpVbpj7azBZQTmbg1p5E64X-5Qjt03dyTd2cfFT9pVA3aIhYeU5G0dpcNnRM1u3KMj0Pca6LEBUQx-NXYXaF1yK/s320/wendy_burton_422183.jpg" border="0" /></a>Wendy Burton<br />Exterior, Closed Factory Youngstown, Ohio, 2006<br />Archival pigment print<br />18 x 18 inches<br />Copyright Wendy Burton, 2006<br />Courtesy Craig Krull Gallery, Santa Monica<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR_3zE9Spnh0qQRpgtrA7RH1NAw2-E9HqheGxFKuvY-WD6yhqu74Dhb7rF59p8kcZfJOqRKxEHq7qNoCXnvhYw55xgSowX2MY50bI_xiot_Li2-xRL3sjaeeGk_xmObE2YySQ6rVuDp6pn/s1600-h/wendy_burton_422182.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242354343407871378" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiR_3zE9Spnh0qQRpgtrA7RH1NAw2-E9HqheGxFKuvY-WD6yhqu74Dhb7rF59p8kcZfJOqRKxEHq7qNoCXnvhYw55xgSowX2MY50bI_xiot_Li2-xRL3sjaeeGk_xmObE2YySQ6rVuDp6pn/s320/wendy_burton_422182.jpg" border="0" /></a>Wendy Burton<br />REA Freight Terminal No 7 Buffalo, New York, 2006<br />Archival pigment print<br />18 x 18 inches<br />Copyright Wendy Burton, 2006<br />Courtesy Craig Krull Gallery, Santa Monica<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDOF5VdHA5YrRdPuhyHVNfYx_m6jcOAzep9dGfevWJddP_8-ncJIox7jEAUAI03JjHVc-jzYuJpL9Cr8SgNDDuXKQ4XVcSbnmAroOYDM3y-B9IxnpcHuLKw5lXbYjYAedPQgLNbUeWAZXd/s1600-h/wendy_burton_422181.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242355250732123410" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDOF5VdHA5YrRdPuhyHVNfYx_m6jcOAzep9dGfevWJddP_8-ncJIox7jEAUAI03JjHVc-jzYuJpL9Cr8SgNDDuXKQ4XVcSbnmAroOYDM3y-B9IxnpcHuLKw5lXbYjYAedPQgLNbUeWAZXd/s320/wendy_burton_422181.jpg" border="0" /></a>Wendy Burton<br />REA Freight Terminal No 16 Buffalo, New York, 2007<br />Archival pigment print<br />18 x 18 inches<br />Copyright Wendy Burton, 2007<br />Courtesy Craig Krull Gallery, Santa Monica<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLSCk-uDUOfxebakxWrhyphenhyphenvptQYM8Dyy1pWCRlMc5XfS24Q0v8cNc2DhlK6McndMps1E7o_gP1-jGzAiY9PGmtzobNk2LhKyxaHdrCviWxi6FrUXBwluviwjQqcWc9H37_Ion_fTravNND2/s1600-h/wendy_burton_422180.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5242355248723218514" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLSCk-uDUOfxebakxWrhyphenhyphenvptQYM8Dyy1pWCRlMc5XfS24Q0v8cNc2DhlK6McndMps1E7o_gP1-jGzAiY9PGmtzobNk2LhKyxaHdrCviWxi6FrUXBwluviwjQqcWc9H37_Ion_fTravNND2/s320/wendy_burton_422180.jpg" border="0" /></a>Wendy Burton<br />Scarf, Coaling Tower Youngstown, Ohio, 2006<br />Archival pigment print<br />18 x 18 inches<br />Copyright Wendy Burton, 2006<br />Courtesy Craig Krull Gallery, Santa Monica<br /><br /></div></div><br /><br />The gallery is also featuring a solo exhibition of work by Dennis Hopper.

Naturally, his artworks are fusions of amazingly crafted materials and methods. Castillo notes, “I always try to develop concepts that would help to canalize my emotions, ideas, and visual interpretations.” Linking several canvases with such materials as resin, acrylic, and paste, he adds texture and dimension to a very powerful visual encounter. Castillo’s complex process culminates to a seemingly minimal piece. The onlooker’s gaze slowly travels through the emotive and subtle colors and textures of his three-dimensional, abstract paintings.</div><div align="center"><br /><br />------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQKGSlG84yL2g8GH3paNoD-KTLN6qgI0NOTqGMbYYMyFu9yXeTlLTPySaBZFoRB9xp9jo2SJ_yTzLuGSus_aHTVAzJTvRtiH4O38UOV4XoZKXtSTn-3ufkS7gRzke-mR2Be7UrZNb9SLEJ/s1600-h/jg_joanie_san_chirico_sunset_tree.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5177739364387054690" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQKGSlG84yL2g8GH3paNoD-KTLN6qgI0NOTqGMbYYMyFu9yXeTlLTPySaBZFoRB9xp9jo2SJ_yTzLuGSus_aHTVAzJTvRtiH4O38UOV4XoZKXtSTn-3ufkS7gRzke-mR2Be7UrZNb9SLEJ/s320/jg_joanie_san_chirico_sunset_tree.jpg" border="0" /></a>Joanie San Chirico<br />Sunset Tree #2<br />Pigment, hand stitching, 48" x 38"<br />© by artist, courtesy James Gray Gallery<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdYE34rKB9k-6Gm7wBuU5-St8TelFxCtUulhaUnd7_u1TWUGn3Fo82LbWYKF-sKpvWRULxrLfENK-aiW6fbF-n8eJC421AbraGhkcVm6RXEcqe7cIjv0cKOxNDAtdvx9ho5cbsIghoJPac/s1600-h/jg_joanie_san_chirico_marshlands.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5177739368682022002" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdYE34rKB9k-6Gm7wBuU5-St8TelFxCtUulhaUnd7_u1TWUGn3Fo82LbWYKF-sKpvWRULxrLfENK-aiW6fbF-n8eJC421AbraGhkcVm6RXEcqe7cIjv0cKOxNDAtdvx9ho5cbsIghoJPac/s320/jg_joanie_san_chirico_marshlands.jpg" border="0" /></a>Joanie San Chirico<br />Marshlands #1<br />Pigment, hand stitching, acrylic, 20" x 20"<br />© by Joanie San Chirico, courtesy James Gray Gallery<br /><br /></div><div align="left"><br />Joanie San Chirico's work is unique with the incorporation of photography, paint, stitching and textiles. The viewer is almost challenged to decipher the actual composition of the painting. The artist integrates techniques to reflect on the past in an attempt to make sense of the future by utilizing the incongruity of hand stitching with the latest technology on silk and other textiles. This series combines these mediums to portray natural surfaces using imagery of the planet's fragile beauty.</div><div align="center"><br /><br /><br />------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE_nbos3URZ5YfhznZgR_YyJuIbbfodDlMfC1hIqlnxOYz6INKit5k5IYRZGx2WcsFHVAo0g6bWRVEY6E4KNAADm3RVqaKyQ9cBN0Djt9-3CHFZM66BagKXbxyvCG1thKvWxF6wKGe4-Rb/s1600-h/jg_dan_van_clapp_Baby_Prometheus.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5177739935617705090" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE_nbos3URZ5YfhznZgR_YyJuIbbfodDlMfC1hIqlnxOYz6INKit5k5IYRZGx2WcsFHVAo0g6bWRVEY6E4KNAADm3RVqaKyQ9cBN0Djt9-3CHFZM66BagKXbxyvCG1thKvWxF6wKGe4-Rb/s320/jg_dan_van_clapp_Baby_Prometheus.jpg" border="0" /></a>Dan Van Clapp<br />Baby Prometheus<br />Mixed media, 66" x 27" x 30"<br />© Dan Van Clapp, courtesy James Gray Gallery<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5dc51bUJLw5Ktes_4y4pNNbQqjB9NhVeLv2O2WyZy72JllIwTaN1pBsQsC6_jNh2XIbCZJxz_B1iNzT9bJI5W5Q6YxirKo_FNg90v5ed7loSy-5sPRgLGul04U0Nf39HZGbx3EZfbttif/s1600-h/jg_dan_van_clapp_birthofamartyr.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5177739360092087378" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5dc51bUJLw5Ktes_4y4pNNbQqjB9NhVeLv2O2WyZy72JllIwTaN1pBsQsC6_jNh2XIbCZJxz_B1iNzT9bJI5W5Q6YxirKo_FNg90v5ed7loSy-5sPRgLGul04U0Nf39HZGbx3EZfbttif/s320/jg_dan_van_clapp_birthofamartyr.jpg" border="0" /></a>Dan Van Clapp<br />Birth of Martyr<br />Mixed media, 70" x 13" x 34"<br />© Dan Van Clapp, courtesy James Gray Gallery<br /><br /></div><div align="left"><br />The history of Art and Literature has been a provocative inspiration and, for me, an identification with the past. Ever fascinated by civilization in conflict, I have chosen the human figure by using plastic dollars, to evoke the connections between troubling eroticism and the pursuit of power. At first glance one might see this work as spiritually romantic, but on closer inspection, the viewer sees an alluring, powerful figure whose mysterious origins tend to drift to the dark side of human nature.<br /><br />For the last 15 years his work has been inspired by the 17th century church santos, while pleasing to look at with their entire classic splendor, the overall theme becomes about sadness, power, and fear.</div><div align="center"><br /><br /><br />------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN_7fe6db-jGmuSdANCRHuyq_fxdj2kYlI5TJvQOqJXt3MBwYgMYbQdswu92FkeJlj8z6phV_SOV3OnHfFC4y0egKHfER62dy-feoQIiBRQ7oLNqPkww8BNDZM5rI07iC7R59vHQIw1_Ef/s1600-h/jg_Nympha%2520Grubbs.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5177738651422483474" style="DISPLAY: block;

The pieces are large in scale and range from oil paintings on canvas to charcoal collages to drawings on paper. This is her second exhibition with the gallery.<br /><br />Foosaner studied with Elmer Bischoff, David Hockney, R.B. Kitaj, and Mark Rothko at the University of California, Berkeley.

The metal forms an understructure, which supports a tautly stretched layer of silk. Modulated color (in the form of underpainting or dyed silk) is sometimes used to enhance depth, structure and dimension. The additional step of oiling the fabric “skin” creates various degrees of translucence, allowing the outer layer to be visually penetrable - a watercolor rendered in three dimensions.<br /><br />Originally from Chicago, Carrie Seid currently lives in Tuscon and teaches at the University of Arizona. Seid received her B.F.A. from The Rhode Island School of Design and her M.F.A. from Cranbrook Academy of Art.<br /><br /><br />------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br /><br />Judith Foosaner<br />Crossing the Line<br />February 23 - March 29, 2008<br /><br />Carrie Seid<br />Emergent Features: New Sculpture<br />February 23 - March 29, 2008<br /><br /><br />Opening: Saturday, February 23rd, 5 - 7pm<br />Gallery Hours: Tuesday - Saturday, 10 - 5:30pm<br /><br /><br />Lora Schlesinger Gallery<br />2525 Michigan Avenue T3<br />Santa Monica, CA 90404<br />(310) 828-1133<br /><br /><br />For additional information contact the gallery or visit their website <a href="http://www.loraschlesinger.com/" target="_blank">Lora Schlesinger Gallery</a>.<br /><br /><br />------------------------------------------------------------------------------ </div></div></div>Dan Fearhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00268754941586185014noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2532614023327554238.post-26350574261219697242008-02-09T11:13:00.000-08:002008-12-10T05:06:33.036-08:00Bobbie Greenfield Gallery / Guy Dill Exhibition<div align="left">Bobbie Greenfield Gallery at Bergamot Station, is presenting Guy Dill: New Sculpture and Wall Panels, through March 1st, 2008.</div><br /><br /><div align="center"><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgmFZvxFMNUBtS0en8af0EaPFoFIzruK5qsepdHtzRjuX1VWhQ-YXQlPMucreFxErwux9qGiGZkRi7V2WqzeQgENCL4EjvWDPrZ4iWMi3-wzAvqKJd25BPGUmscpZ8Vhn2YntPVZVQTVTw1/s1600-h/bg_guy_dill_8748.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5165061280600053586" style="DISPLAY: block;

The blogs will include local art news, reviews (we're looking for reviewers), press releases and artwork.<br /><br />Since this blog is accessed primarily through the Santa Monica Gallery Guide, it will have a strong focus on galleries. Whenever art news relates to Southern California in general, articles will also be posted on the "Art-LA" and "Art-Culver City" blogs. <br /><br />In the next few days, we'll be adding a blog to the Culver City Gallery Guide. Yesterday, we added "Art-LA" a new blog for the Los Angeles Gallery Guide.<br /><br />If you'd like to share interesting art news or stories, please contact us via email at <a href="mailto:art-support@att.net">art-support@att.net</a>. Also, please add us to your press release mailing list if you have a gallery or art business.<br /><br />Thanks for looking, check back soon and help spread the word about our new art blogs.<br /><br />Dan Fear<br /><a href="http://art-collecting.com/">http://art-collecting.com/</a>Dan Fearhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00268754941586185014noreply@blogger.com0
