A #Valentine from Barbara Earl Thomas: “Dream Delivered,” has a fantastical, perilous flow to it. In it, a couple in sleeping embrace are afloat on a tilting bed that’s sliding over swirling currents. Lying across them, a book lies open, while arching over them is a bird with a fish in its mouth. Eddying waters filled with aquatic life surge all around them. Yet, entwined as they are in each other’s arms, they are safe. 💝
New Work still in the early stages at the studio of Bisa Butler. The Artist carefully cuts and crafts fabrics, adding layer upon layer of detail and meaning. Silk, chiffon and lace combine with South African Shwe-shwe cotton to tell the unique story of her subject.
In the studio with Matt Bahen:
The Artist grew up in rural Ontario, bordered by Hudson Bay to the north and the Great Lakes to the south. Here the seasons are unmistakably pronounced; spring brings swaths of showy wildflowers, Aura Borealis fills the night sky in summer, sugar maples blaze hot in fall and winter snow blankets the evergreens like sweet frosting. Removed from the trappings of urban culture, this landscape became the Artists' Muse.
From a distance, Bahen's paintings appear almost photographic in clarity yet as one draws near, the image disintegrates into a series of sculptural marks. The works themselves have an intrinsic dichotomy of surface and image; the thick and rough handling of the paint reinforces the brute nature of the subject and the conceptual agenda of the work. Through heavy paint and pronounced brushwork, these paintings possess an analogue presence of the artists' hand; they accomplish a distinct separation from the photograph, which is conflated with the idea of journalistic truth.
In the studio hard at work @bisabutler, final prep for @pulseartfair Miami @claireolivergallery.
#NorbertBrunner hard at work in the studio. Nearing the end of a year long major project. More photos and details to come. #ClaireOliverGallery #PublicArt #Dots #Bubble #Sculpture #Video
PULSE Miami Beach December 7-10, 2017
Materiality Claire Oliver Gallery Stand N-312
Claire Oliver Gallery has chosen to curate their stand for the 2017 edition of Pulse Miami with the theme of Materiality. When investigating the role of materiality in art we can attempt to expand notions of time, space, process, or participation. We may consider how materials obstruct, disrupt, or interfere with social norms. Materiality, as an aesthetic concept, has evolved out of formalism’s interest in the purely visual aspects of art to create both context and communication.
The artworks chosen for our exhibition include fabric constructions by Bisa Butler, photomontage mixed media works by Lisa Alonzo and magazine clipping collages by Gabi Trinkaus. All three artists’ works of art extend beyond the physical matter to encompass conceptually relevant information related to the work’s physical existence; the components chosen give reason for the being of the object.

LISA ALONZO: new works for PULSE Miami Beach
Applying paint to clear acrylic panel through a pastry piping bag, Alonzo adds new layers of meaning with her symbolic application of material and rendering of image. Paint as frosting, paint as pixels; a beautiful cake: sweet, bright, and non-confrontational on the exterior, Alonzo uses this as means to soften the delivery of the important questions just below the surface. As the viewer peers through the entwined overgrown jungle vines, we glimpse behind this top layer another, filled with caustic chimney smoke from a belching factory furnace.
