Mad Art: Friday, 7 November 2008

Opening Reception for New Work by Ron Buechele, Jim Mahfood, and Peat Wollaeger Friday, November 7, 7 pm to 11 pm

Mad Art Gallery proudly presents new work by Ron Buechele, Jim Mahfood, and Peat Wollaeger. This exhibit opens on Friday, November 7, 2008, and continues through December 2, 2008.

Buechele's new work explores liminality, the state of being on the threshold between two different existential planes. The images Buechele's in paintings are reminiscent of those used in advertising in the 1950's and 1960's. The images are wholesome and idyllic. His message is not. Buechele's images lull the viewer into a sense of nostalgia, and then like a sucker punch in the nose, Buechele's text serves up his message with an acerbic wit.

Jim Mahfood aka Food One is a muralist, comic book artist, painter, live
art show rocker, and drunken free-styler extraordinaire.

Internationally known for his whimsical, raw, and brightly-colored stenciled characters that include, Mr. Teeth, the Dead Fat Comedians, Albino Alley Cat, and the Luchador series, Peat Wollaeger is one hard-working artist.

This exhibit promises to be like no other. Prepared to be surprised, entertained, and possibly offended. There will be a free opening reception kicking off this exhibit on Friday, November 7, 2008, from 7:00 p.m. until 11:00 p.m. Cash bar, complimentary appetizers, music.

Free Reception on November 1st 7-10pm.

Schmidt Contemporary Art: Friday, 31 October 2008

Max Cole
October 31 - November 29, 2008
Rception for the artist Friday, October 31, 6:00-8:00 PM

Whatever one may write about Max Cole’s paintings will, out of necessity, fall short of the mark. Whatever one sees in Max Cole’s work will only be increased by the next encounter. Whatever one wishes to sum up as a capsule view becomes impossible as they change not only with the light of day, but also with the mood of the viewer. The word enigmatic comes to mind, but that fails as well for as mysterious as the paintings present themselves through their reductivist pallate and remarkable sensitive mark making they are not mysterious at all - they are clearly a result of a predetermined aesthetic, enacted by a practiced hand guided by an experience mind that thinks linearly and outside of the box at the same time.

Max Cole will tell you that her paintings are essentially about light, and in doing so she is talking about the light of day. While that may be how she sees it, the constant observation that pulls here into the studio every day, I view the work more as enactments of the light in her mind which seems down to earth in day to day conversation, leaving you to wonder how she is even able to translate such basic instincts through such a seemingly controlled system into something which even on first encounter seems more eternal than of any particual moment in her or our visual history.

No matter what words I try to find to describe her immaculate painting the only thing I ever can do is come up with a generalized context in which quite frankly is rendered meaningless the moment one encounters the actual work. The paintings in this exhibition are remarkable not only for their continuation of a well defined aesthetic, but for their remarkable abilty to begin again with something new and unexpected. That I find to be a remarkable achievement for one who has been painting seriously for almost half a century.

East Central College: Friday, 17 October 2008

Complementary Clay

Workshop & Exhibition

Tammy Marinuzzi and Pavel Amromin are ceramic artists with complementary senses of humor and irony, yet each has a completely different aesthetic and concept. They will combine efforts on Saturday, October 18, 2008 to conduct a workshop hosted by Krueger Pottery, following an opening reception for their exhibition at East Central College Gallery, AC161, 1964 Prairie Dell Rd., in Union, MO on Friday, October 17, 2008 from 5-7 p.m. (For further information about the opening, contact Jill Foote-Hutton, footehut@eastcentral.edu
636-583-5195, ext. 2259.

Marinuzzi utilizes illustrative, whimsical characters to explore the never-ending boundaries of the unstable human condition. Amromin, a native of Belarus, brings a darker, nervous energy to his refined figurines. He presents the contradictions between the virtuous public face of war and the hard reality of the individual soldier. Both bodies of work evoke a poetic smile and a simultaneous cringe in the viewer.

At the workshop Marinuzzi, working loose and wet, will guide attendees through the nuances and immediacy of wet slab work. She will also share her decorating techniques as she demonstrates her process of working with a richly saturated palette of colorful slips. Amromin will demonstrate the exacting technique of mold-making—trouble shooting and answering technical questions as he demystifies the oft-daunting task. Both artists will bring finished examples of their work for perusal.

The demonstration will begin at 10 a.m. in the Krueger Pottery Classroom located two doors down from our showroom at 8153 Big Bend Blvd. in Webster Groves. Participants will break for lunch at 12:30 p.m., and resume at 1 p.m. The workshop will conclude at 3:30 p.m. with a brief period for one-on-one Q & A and individual critiques. The exhibition of their work will be up October 17 – November 12, 2008 at East Central College in Union, MO. For more information call Krueger Pottery at 314-963-0180.

Laumeier Sculpture Park: Saturday, 11 October 2008

Acclaimed artist and filmmaker, John Waters unleashes his quirky world in survey exhibition at Laumeier Sculpture Park.

Laumeier Sculpture Park presents Artistically Incorrect: The Photographs and Sculpture of John Waters which opens October 11, 2008 at 6 p.m. Internationally-acclaimed director, filmmaker, entertainer and artist John Waters will bring his quirky insights to Laumeier for an exhibition that promises to be nothing short of spectacular. The solo exhibition of 65 works in the indoor galleries offers a combination of photographs, montages, and sculptures, that challenge, confound and entertain.

John Waters is most often recognized for his films. He has written, directed, produced and acted in more than a dozen motion pictures. From his early underground cult classics to the latest iteration of Hairspray, Waters' films are full of twists and quirks. Those same characteristics permeate his life and career. Since the early 1990s Waters has been making photo-based artwork, sculpture and installations. This work is just as edgy, informed and full of dark humor as his films and has been exhibited in galleries and museums throughout the world.

Immediately following the public opening, Laumeier is hosting a fundraising cocktail party - Socially Incorrect: A Night of Contradictions with John Waters.

Artistically Incorrect: The Photographs and Sculpture of John Waters opens October 11, 2008 at Laumeier Sculpture Park with a free public reception from 6-8 p.m. and continues through January 11, 2009.

The park is open daily from 8 a.m. until ½ hour past sunset. Museum hours are: Tuesday-Friday 10:00 AM-5:00 PM and Saturday-Sunday 12:00 PM-5:00 PM (Free).The museum is closed on Mondays and legal holidays. For more information, call 314-821-1209 or visit us at www.laumeier.org.

Marbles Gallery exhibits OBAMA ROYALE, op art paintings by Richard Rodriguez
October 6 – November 5

Opening Reception: Friday, October 10, 2008 from 6-9 p.m.
Meet the artist and enjoy a glass of wine
Free and open to the public

As the 2008 presidential election approached, Richard Rodriguez, wanted to capture this important American history moment in time. What better way than Obama Writ Large, literally creating enormous op art banner paintings – each one unique. The original image was a poster created by Shepard Fairey for the Obama campaign. It is Fairey's stated wish that these images go viral. So, Rodriguez created a grass roots effort to record the event, but in a fashion distinctly different from corporate efforts. The St. Louis History Museum will be adding three of his large paintings to their collection. He is glad that people see the images as useful, but for Rodriguez, it is art first.

Open Friday and Saturday evenings from 6:30-8:30 p.m. and Mondays 1-3 p.m. Call 314.621.4744 to confirm additional hours or for an appointment.

The Schmidt Art Center: Thursday, 16 October 2008

The Schmidt Art Center presents two environmentally-inspired exhibitions.

PUBLIC RECEPTION Thursday, October 16 6 ­ 8 p.m.

B.J. VOGT created "A Human Geology" specifically for the Schmidt Art Center. For this
installation, he overlaid images of brain slices onto the gallery floor plan to create the installation's layout. This detailed and time-consuming process required extremely precise measurements, light observations and anticipation of the visitors' movements. B.j. then
stacked cardboard and foam board shapes to create a cavernous topographic landscape that links earth systems with brain processes.

"'A Human Geology' is comprised of works that explore the concept that human evolution and structure of the human body are directly linked to processes inherent in geology, plate tectonics and vulcanology," says B.j. "These are all tied together by the histories of their structures and biological compositions."

KEN WORLEY's rich landscape paintings are featured in the Marsh Gallery at the Schmidt. He creates his works by using oil pastels to make sketches and then milling his own oil sticks in the studio for painting. By applying layers of color and then scratching into the
surface, he arrives at his final image, which is extremely vivid in color and texture.

Ken's paintings have been described as very theatrical. His landscapes frequently feature trees shown in a very dramatic light, which gives them a surreal, quiet and almost lonely feeling. Reminiscent of Giorgio de Chirico and Edward Hopper, his artworks are like stage
sets, frozen before impending action. "Landscapes are sensory things," says Ken. "They are always changing. One has no control over a landscape. And there's a mystery to them. Viewing a landscape is like looking at chaos and discovering order by making some sense of it. There's so much adventure in there, so many possibilities."

The exhibition continues through December 13, 2008.

Please join us Thursday, October 9th, 2008 from 7-10 p.m. for the opening of No Friends to Display

Thursday, October 4th- Saturday, November 1st, 2008

The endearing work of Peter Pranschke is both comedic and yet often sad, telling stories of everyday struggles and the frustration inherent in certain human interactions.

For the title of his exhibition No Friends to Diplay Peter lifted a phrase from his myspace account, on which he comments, "For a long time I had an account but had no contacts".
Through photographs of sculptural and drawn implements and an installation of altered Bible pages, Peter deals with themes of lonliness and signifigance that we at various times share.

Gallery hours for Maps Contemporary Art Space are Saturdays and Sundays from 12-5, or to schedule an appointment call (618) 334-4347 or e-mail us at
