Evans\, who has been exhibiting with LYDM since 1997\, is well known for his paintings of his North Garden environs seen at different times of day and in all seasons. The paintings are richly textured with countless layers of acrylic underpainting often in brilliant hues\, lending mystery\, surprise and pulsating life to the final work. Although his subjects are ordinary Virginia landscapes\, often including grazing sheep or cattle that he encounters daily\, the animals\, objects or trees take on an otherworldly aura. Every natural or man-made element in his works contains its own seed of life and energy\, thus lending a pantheistic magic to the whole.

This show will feature the latest dazzling still life paintings of art historian\, critic\, philosopher\, and painter David Summers. As the William R. Kenan\, Jr. Professor of Art Theory and Italian Renaissance Art at the University of Virginia from 1981 to 2015\, he wrote plenty about these areas\, including the books Michelangelo and the Language of Art (1981) and The Judgment of Sense (1987).  But his concerns and contributions have been much more wide-ranging than Renaissance art and current theory\, amounting to none other than a re-reading and re-writing of the way Art History has been done since its inception\, to be much more inclusive of all traditions—a World Art History laid out in great detail in his internationally influential 700+ page book\, Real Spaces. World Art History and the Rise of Western Modernism (2003). Drawing from this book\, he wrote the manifesto“To a Museum of World Art” for the Louvre Abu Dhabi\, arguing that art and its history crosses all boundaries of time and nationality to elucidate our shared humanity.  In addition to his scholarly concerns and books\,  most recently Vision\, Reflection and Desire in Western Painting (2007) and his current endeavor\, Pathos\, Sympathy and Empathy in Art\, Summers has always painted and he is just as stellar in his handling of concept through paint as he is through words. \nSummers writes “I have spent my whole life as a painter trying to paint light. I came to understand Cezanne (from whom it seemed to me I took my bearings) to have made paintings that in some sense we do not look into\, as if their forms were just more things we see.  Instead\, paintings are themselves fields of living light….and out of their light beautiful things may appear.  Beauty has become a kind of B-word\, avoided in favor of supposedly more truthful dreariness and ugliness.  But light is beautiful\, and\, as a great philosopher said\, if the world is in fact one of suffering\, our obligation is not to add to the general malaise.”  In this same spirit Summers offers his “Happy Still Life” series\, works that are ebullient\, playful and colorful\, abounding in layers of imagery\, light and hidden meanings.  His sense of humor and great empathy for all things human and hopeful infuse his art with lasting brilliance and strength.

Kohr and Kuhlmann have been taking studio critique classes from Warren for over six years. Early in 2014\, Kohr brought Warren some livestock markers that her husband used to mark his cattle. Warren was captivated by these inch-wide sticks that came in myriad bright colors from neon yellow to silver\, pink\, purple and more\, and soon he began ordering them by the box load. As a Texan who grew up with cattle\, he liked their intended use\, but he also liked their “fluidity when activated” and that they were easily manipulated for over 24 hours before drying. Plus\, he exclaims\, “they are light-fast and weather resistant…all for a fraction of the cost!” (of traditional oil sticks.) His enthusiasm was infectious and soon Kohr and Kuhlmann joined his journey of experimentation with this new medium which\, as the exciting work by each artist shows\, proves to be endlessly diverse in its use and expression. \nGwyn Kohr enhances her brilliantly hued ambitious in scale paintings of flowers or abstractions with the livestock marker. She layers them over her paintings adding high keyed color and texture or scumbling that creates dynamism and three-dimensionality. Kathy Kuhlmann uses the livestock marker for its own expressive potential in her paintings of favorite creatures like the crows and roosters and also as a compliment to her photo transfer paintings in which she transfers images from photos to paper or canvas\, evoking a hazy surreal atmosphere. In these she uses the medium for added color and linear detail within the space of the painting or she extends the imagery of the photo transfer into a painted frame\, revealing that the livestock marker surprisingly can be mixed to bring about most any hue that more traditional mediums can create. Warren’s excursion with the medium since 2014 has taken many forms\, but he always uses it on paper primed with acrylic and enhanced by ink or oil stick and “scraper” a tool he invented to remove and reveal earlier layers of color. His imagery has ranged from his own Picasso-like Combines that evoke many sides of a face or figure in one painting\, to a series of day-glo  Skyline Drive Wildflowers\, to his most recent series of 100 Bulls. Bulls have always been a favorite subject for his art and the livestock marker has inspired him to return to the subject with great fervor. The result: a herd of humorous and delightful compositions in all colors and expressions\, revealing Warren’s mastery of line\, layering and medium.

He returned to this medium in earnest after seeing the galvanizing Picasso Sculpture show at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in late 2015. The show at LYdM will focus on his art in both mediums and in literal communication with one another. A veteran of the art world\, having shown with major galleries in New York and Chicago and in important museum exhibitions in the U.S. and abroad since the 1970s\, Warren has always been fascinated by the dynamics of art exhibitions and what happens to art when it moves from a studio to an exhibition space.  He writes “You live in the studio with your paintings and work and rework them until you find confidence to show them to the world. You think you know them inside and out. Then the opening happens and suddenly you see your paintings like you never have seen them before.” To highlight the strange psychological experience that happens between the viewer and the painting\, and by extension between the artist as viewer watching this interaction\, Warren will interject his own surrogate viewers into the mix. They take the shape of humorous headless figures created in wood\, chicken wire and plaster and painted in layers of undecipherable words\, formulas and numbers. They are wildly gesticulating or calmly viewing (though with bodies not eyes) the huge diptychs on the wall\, composed of overlapping lines of animals\, skulls\, figures and nature in bold colors and staccato brushwork. The resulting ensembles seem caught in a play of mysterious communion and attempted communication across chasms of this world and the next. \nAlso on view in the rear gallery will be a selection of Warren’s latest livestock marker paintings\, created in acrylic\, ink\, oil stick\, and actual livestock markers used for marking cattle. In these he returns to another favorite subject of his—the bull. In typical Warren fashion\, his beasts are far from menacing.

SUMMARY:Janet Bruce: Water in the Desert
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition WorksPress ReleaseInstallation Shots\n				\n				\n					\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n\nPlease enable JavaScript to view the artwork.\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Les Yeux du Monde is pleased to present Water in the Desert: New Paintings by Janet Bruce from March 31 – May 7\, 2017.  Janet Bruce is well known for her masterful oil paintings that merge gestural and expressive line with Mark Rothko like horizontal spaces and veils of color. A studio major at Amherst college\, where she had classes with Abstract Expressionist Grace Hartigan\, Bruce continued her studies with master classes at the Art Institute of Boston and at the Corcoran in D.C. with William Christenberry.  She has exhibited widely and is in collections throughout the U.S. and abroad\, including the Emily Couric Cancer Center in Charlottesville. In 2016\, she was awarded two prestigious fellowships and residencies—one at the Virginia Center for the Creative Arts in Amherst VA and another in Assisi\, Italy at the Arte Studio Ginestrelle. The paintings she will exhibit in this show are inspired by her time in these places and also by her current work with Maurizzio Pellegrin\, director of the National Academy in New York. She writes: “My paintings are a conversation about displacement and memory…[they] start with a remembered experience of a place\, a landscape\, or an interior. Using forms within forms\, inscribed lines\, and large planar shifts\, I explore the light\, color\, and structural relationships of an imagined space.” Her chosen vertical format also amplifies the viewer’s direct physical and emotional experience with the work. She writes: “I paint to create visual statements that reverberate within.” The mysterious light filled canvases to be shown in Water in the Desert truly do “reverberate within.” \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Installation shots coming soon.
