DESCRIPTION
Archival ink on museum-quality cotton rag paper | 2016
Photographer and director, Gia Coppola’s most recent body of work, was inspired in part by the saturated cinematography of Robert Altman’s film, 3 Women. The 1977 movie’s muted Californian landscape served as a visual reference when scouting for the right backdrop to showcase Gucci’s 2016 womenswear collection, designed by Alessandro Michele. As Coppola describes, “On location, we found some similarities between the film and the fashion. Altman’s storytelling wasn’t linear and existed in a grey area between the real and the unreal. The same can be said of Michele’s Gucci shows, which blur the lines between male and female, contemporary and vintage. Both of these creatures hark into our memories to make us realize how we feel in the moment.”

DESCRIPTION
Lacquered iron sculpture | 2019
A tribute to movement as a symbol of life, Alimbau’s new works are sculptural revisions of drawings made in air. Alternative to her depiction of the female form on paper and canvas using the minimum possible lines, these sculptures acquire freedom and volume in their more imaginative process. While light and delicate in appearance, this series is hand welded in solid iron and painted with a resistant lacquer allowing for placement both indoors and outdoors.

DIMENSIONS
40 x 18 inches
AUTHENTICITY
Signed by the artist.

“These sculptures capture the sensation of closing your eyes and drawing something in the air, feeling the freedom of movement”

Alimbau's most recent body of work portrays a refined interpretation of everyday objects and familiar scenes, free from unnecessary distractions and distilled into modern day still life and landscape compositions.

Archival ink on museum-quality cotton rag paper | 2016
"The direction I had been given was to contribute, in any fashion that I’d like, on the idea of what “blind for love” means to me. I sat with it for a while not really sure what to do. I had just watched the Truman Show and was on a Peter Weir kick, my room-mate came home and asked me if I’d ever seen Picnic at Hanging Rock— I hadn’t. When I put it on, I was flabbergasted and totally inspired. It’s a very provocative and sexually charged film but also has so much underlying truth. It felt it related intuitively to all many facets and innuendos of  the concept “blind for love”. When I told Alessandro my idea he said “You know it’s one of my favorite movies?” Apparently, in every collection he does a piece that attributes the film. When the clothes came, it was funny karma how well that collection in particular worked towards our narrative."

"Each painting I do is an experiment, an investigation into the nature of an image and how it functions. I am interested in what’s behind the image, how the image is constructed, how it is read, etc. My work tends to be photo based, because the photograph still is thought of as a document of reality. Painting the image helps me deconstruct and understand it."

Untitled (study)

Mounting

DESCRIPTION

Oil on canvas | 2017
This series of paintings are the result of a technique Garber has invented that mimics the weaving of cloth through layered brushwork. Taking months or years to complete in many stages, the components mirror a living being, the preliminary composition a skeletal structure, the worked texture a muscular system and final coating a skin-like layer. Layers of oil paint create create subtle color shifts, the resulting work historically dense yet radiant and cerebral.

DIMENSIONS
48 x 36 inches

“I prefer the physicality and intimacy of the laboriously worked surface, dense with layers of history and alluding to the passage of time. ”

What Needs Must Be

DESCRIPTION

Archival pigment print | 2019
The series “New Sands” is the result of a trip to New Mexico gone wrong. Bad weather, damaged equipment, and suspicious locals culminated in hours of aimless driving between Southwestern towns.
Determined to make the most of the less than 24 hours until the flight home, James took to a paper map on the hood of his rental car, choosing to head wherever his finger landed. That destination was the White Sands National Monument, a few hours away, but enough to spend an hour at the park’s opening, touring and photographing.
From that cursory visit came contemplative and composed images, representative of the harried, superficial nature of modern tourism. Shot from the periphery and rendering the prioritization of observation over experience, James implores the viewer to continue with his journey, to sit and stay a while, and to pause in a moment he could not.

New Sands Mural

DESCRIPTION

Concrete, spray paint, wood | 2014
The Concretions series came about by thinking about what I could do with the plastic bags and bubble wrap that accumulate in my house and studio, along with excess wet concrete from other pieces. The impetus is an attempt to transform ubiquitous materials into something new, both the bag as a mold and the concrete as material. The plastic creates a smooth, sometimes glossy surface (depending on the plastic) and pillowy folds and dents that seem to tempt viewers to want to experience the pieces tactilely. The application of the 24K gold leaf or gold spray paint further pushes the aesthetic qualities of concrete through the contrast of materials. The series is titled Concretions in reference to the geologic formations, as well as the idea of geologic time, which are common themes in my work

“Winter is a hard time for my head, the cold is very numbing to me. On top of that, the political climate is a huge drag. There's no escape and everything is very uncomfortable and grimy feeling. I tried to not stay in it so long as I always work in color, but there are some days that are harder than others to stay bright.”

Culver's abstract, romantic, and plant-focused work has led her to success in a relatable way.

“The series is a backup, an attempt at distancing insignificant yet memorable objects that resonate as vivid memories.”

Martinet and Texereau's drawings incorporate familiar objects and settings that leave little room for spontaneity.

“I found myself sick for two weeks last November, one of those was spent in the hospital. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about my insides in a different way, and seeing and imagining the pain I was going through in a very busy and visual way.”

Culver's abstract, romantic, and plant-focused work has led her to success in a relatable way.

Room Vignette

DESCRIPTION
Oil on Canvas | 2017
Kelsey Shultis creates sculptural oil paintings that explore strength through thick texture and aggressive movement. In her new work, both on paper and canvas, she invites her subconscious mind to take the lead, with color and composition choices based on the artist’s feeling in the moment. She relies on mistakes and unintentional actions for inspiration.
“Sometimes I'll work a painting so much that I can lose the impulse that led me to it, or the window in which it wants to stay. The works on paper and small canvas don't allow me to overthink gesture too much, and in that constriction I can be more free. They are whimsical improvisations.”

Shultis ' work largely explores the tenuous stability of life. Her works create a dynamic record of permanent transitions.
