Niittynen depicts in her photo-realistic coloured pencil drawings, a record of events culminating towards a completed image/icon portraiture of individuals within the music subcultures of Metal and Rock.

THE LAST THOUSAND YEARS - NEW YORK

45 BIS - ROUEN

Le Collectif DOP est heureux de vous présenter sa dernière création Folklore II visible à Rouen jusqu'au 18 septembre.

Installation "45 bis" - Galerie MAM
du 4 au 18 septembre 2009

Visible de l'extérieur tous les jours.

Le Collectif DOP, créé en 2005, réunit deux artistes issus de l’Ecole des Beaux Arts de Rouen. Le Collectif DOP est particulièrement attaché à l’exploration des lieux communs, ce fond courant d’idées à la disposition de tous. Jouant de leur valeur admise et persuasive, il opère détournements et décalages pour revitaliser, en se les appropriant, ces références adoptées par le plus grand nombre.

Le Collectif DOP poursuit actuellement son nouveau projet intitulé Folklore, portant sur les codes architecturaux des façades. Eléments représentatifs immédiatement identifiables, elles ont été et sont encore au cœur d’enjeux ayant trait à l’identité patrimoniale dans de multiples contextes comme les pavillons nationaux des expositions universelles ou de la Biennale de Venise, comme la Main Street idéalisée par Walt Disney dans ses parcs à thèmes ou comme, plus récemment, la pratique urbanistique du façadisme.

Au sein du quartier des antiquaires de la ville de Rouen, la Galerie MAM est le second support sur lequel le Collectif DOP vient rejouer cette question identitaire. Pour cette nouvelle pièce, il transforme la façade de la galerie, le temps de sa fermeture, en un tombeau nabatéen à l'échelle 1/7.

A FACE ON MARS - NEW YORK

Virginia Martinsen
Opening Thursday September 10th 6-8pm

September 10 – October 17, 2009

ATM Gallery is pleased to announce the first solo show of 28 year old, UCLA graduate, Virginia Martinsen. The title of this exhibition of paintings, A Face on Mars, reveals Martinsen’s fascination with the human need for companionship and search for a higher power. The fact that people find images of Jesus Christ on the side of a tree, on a piece of cloth or even a piece of toast alludes to the concept that people find references to human figures or images identifiable by our society in almost anything, and whether consciously or not we are searching for them.

Virginia’s paintings are created by pouring liquid paint and dry pigments onto canvases that are positioned flat on the floor. The paint is then left to settle onto the canvas, sometimes creating large pools of paint, and with no further manipulation they take on their own form. The resulting formations are the product of gravity on the canvas, which is forced to stretch accommodating the weight of the paint. As the paint travels over the surface of the canvas the pigments and oil separate from the varnish and mediums, streaks and clumps of paint are created, both solidifying and evaporating. Eventually, dried out circular forms, by-products of the painting process, become centers of some of the paintings.

Her painting process is informed by her many visits with Austrian Actionist Hermann Nitsch at his castle in Prinzendorf, Austria, where she was inspired by Nitsch’s concept of a pour or splatter of paint referencing a stab with a knife, or an extensive experience of existence.

Martinsen’s title “A Face on Mars” refers to the images brought back from Viking 1 taken in 1976, revealing an image that appeared to be a humanoid face on the surface of Mars. People believed that this was an indication of alien life; however latter pictures revealed that the original image of the face was simply the result of shadows and camera angle. Our reaction to those images reveals our desire to know that we are not alone and also to identify something familiar in the unknown. Martinsen’s abstract paintings are based on her fascination with the human need to identify with or find a familiarity in the unknown.

Virginia Martinsen lives and works in New York.

PSYCHOTROPIA - NEWARK

Seed Gallery’s Two Year Anniversary Art Exhibition
Group Show, Curator: KALIPTUS & Gizem Bacaz
September 24th-November 12, 2009
Opening Reception: September 24th between 5pm-8pm

Psychotropia will be taking place on September 24th, 2009 at Seed Gallery, which is located on 239 Washington St. in Newark, NJ. This awesome celebration of Seed’s two-year opening anniversary & psychotropic art exhibition is guaranteed to be one of our best yet. The theme of “psychotropia” reflects the mind, revealing its deeper nature and its infinite aspects of the psyche. The art that will be displayed from September 24th until October will be psychotropic in that it will bring our audience closer to their deeper mind. The content of the works are mind revealing and can be considered to express mystical states of consciousness, shamanic experiences, visionary states of the mind, etc. Our goal is to bring together an impressive array of artists, who’s art forms not only deliver quality in content and design but also act as a portal for spiritual exploration, inspiration, healing, and psychotropic research.

Claudia Lady Bird Johnson once said, “Art is the window to man's soul. Without it, he would never be able to see beyond his immediate world; nor could the world see the man within.” Art is meant to elevate one’s understanding of himself and the world around him, instantaneously taking him/her into a higher level of consciousness. In “Psychotropia” we will be creating a unique and awe-inspiring environment that is meant to transcend the self beyond the beyond. Art works will vary from paintings to sculptures, to digital prints, collages, installations, animations, and much, much more. Imagine entering the gallery and stepping into an entirely different universe where one can explore multiple realities uncommon to day-to-day reality. Hues of bright and fluorescent tones intertwined in archaic myths with psychedelic gods and archetypal techno demons might be some of the themes displayed in some of the more expected pieces. But be prepared to also expect the unexpected. Feedback installations with interactive devices and video projects might just melt your mind and blow you away. We are also expected to have synesthetic animations that vibrate trance evoking, audio frequencies and optical phenomenon so astonishing that you might never forget.

If you are inspired by eidetic imagery, visionary art, mandalas, sacred geometry and surrealism don’t hesitate to stop by for our opening night. This upcoming show’s artists will bring to you some of the most exciting aggregations that may resemble many of Carl Jung’s collective archetypes or the powerful hypnagogic states of a Tibetan Buddhist Monk.
