BIOGRAPHY:

First of all some historic facts about myself. I was born in Berlin. (bla bla bla) I grew up in a system, in which a Hifi-system cost half your monthly wages but the school education was free of charge... I can put it in just one word…a system called Socialism. I don't want to exclaim to be a socialist or communist but I still would recommend reading Marx's manifesto. Anyway, at some point one world famous wall crumbled into pieces... Anyway, I am one of these people, who tries his best to work in a profession, which doesn’t seem to give you any income (heavy start for an introduction of a homepage, isn’t it?) or let’s put it that way... it is pretty difficult to make some money, the profession of ART. But hey, as long it makes me happy I am fine with it and I tell you... IT DOES MAKE ME HAPPY. Ok, ok I know, WELCOME TO REALITY... I need to pay my bills, need to do some shopping for food and wine and once in a while I need to escape to the art-shop to get a new canvas or a new set of brushes but still... I see it as some sort of passion and it doesn’t want to leave me... What a great feeling.

David Chum

myartspace id:davidchum

BIOGRAPHY:

David Chum is the son of Sarath and Sitha Chum. They are Cambodian refugees who escaped the persecution and killing of Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge. They were forced to hide their identities as educated members of society, endured years in prison camps, and watched as their family members and friends were beaten, tortured, and killed. Eventually, Sitha became pregnant. After weeks of fleeing through the jungles and terrain of Cambodia, littered with the dead bodies of men, women, and children, they made it across the border into Thailand. They were eventually sent to the Philippines where David was born on April 13, 1982 in a refugee camp in Merong Battaan. He was named "Sovanmony" (so-von-ma-knee) which means: "golden glass." About a month after his birth, Mr.Chum's parents immigrated to the United States.They eventually settled in Fall River, Massachusetts. Drawn to the New England region's rich academic history, they wanted nothing more than good educations and security for their child and future children. Around the age of one, Mr. Chum's parents started calling him "David," because it was easier for Americans to pronounce. This is the name he has kept. He has tried going by "Sovanmony," but "David" has been built into his psyche. At an extremely early age, David showed a talent for drawing. He went on to study fine arts at the Art Institute of Boston in 2000 on a few scholarships, as well as a Merit Scholarship from the school itself. He received an award for "Best of Department: Fine Arts" during the school's annual juried portfolio scholarship competitions, was included in a juried self-portrait exhibiton, as well as the Northeast Printmaker's Biennial Exhibition in 2003. He received his B.F.A. in 2004. David currently lives and works in the greater Boston area with his partner, Jonathan T. Knox. He has shown in commercial, alternative, and on-line galleries locally and internationally. His work is included in collections across the country.

Two aristocratic families with a strong history and cosmoplite, with english (distantly related to the Chambers family, in the navy for centuries and a painting in the Greenwich maritime museum), peruvian( my ancestors had gold mines in Peru), polish(my family came from poland in the year 1000) and Brazilian. My grandfather was a diplomat and went to a concentration (with his family and my father was 2) camp in Japan because he did not wanted to be under Mussolini’s rule after the shift of alliances. My mothers s very old family had enormous estates in tuscany,and glorious past as rulers, Pope’s generals. Both were ruined by the war, and mourned for the bygone past, my mother became alcoholic and my father ruined his diplomatic career for aristocratic pride, and I think this helped the growth of his fatal cancer. My inheritence has been a burden for many years especially as a son of a diplomat I had no roots,and difficulties in socialising.Went to posh french schools in Brazil, and Rome but I felt I had nothing in common with my spoilt fellow students . I did not suffer from my extended family while we were abroad and was not so outkast, and on my return to Europe I felt it was boring and tedious until and Brazil was escape to aristo pride self pity,arrogance, and a memento that whatever happens we must put a brave face and be optimist and happy.

Catherine Lepp

BIOGRAPHY:

Open water is the last truly unquantifiable and ungovernable frontier. Controlling tides dictate our ebb and flow and its rhythms remain beyond our authority. Of all the elements, water seems to have the most emotional impact upon the human psyche. As the waves grow higher, as the ripples slowly rise, as the ocean grabs the figure from the shore or boat, it challenges our survival instincts. The flux of water questions and threatens the normality of our daily lives. Our perception of ourselves can change as rapidly as the water around us. My paintings are about the memory of water. Painted in oil, freehand, on long rolls of paper, figures emerge from the surface and dissolve below. The paintings explore the underwater world: the distillation of the body and its distortions. My figures are un-located in their environment, they are not held by the a shore line, or pool edge, they are adrift in the firmament

BIOGRAPHY:

With a phenomenally creative painter for a mother, and a set designing, iron sculpting, jack and/or master of all trades for a father, I was well encouraged in my artistic inclinations right from the start. My earliest days were spent with the crayon, forming round multi-colored bodies on the page whose line limbs spiked their way from its center. Since giving up the crayon, every form of mark-making that I've taken on has expressed that same subject. People have always been my creative focus. In between creative pursuits, I managed to survive and graduate from BYU's visual arts program and get myself hitched in the process. My greatest creative achievement has been that of my daughter, newly born and splendidly fabulous. The three of us are soon to set up shop in the Pacific Northwest, and become happily drenched in the copious rainfall. My work has been shown in LA, Denver, Chicago, Salt Lake City, Boston, San Francisco, New York and London. Please visit my website www.ianstrawn.com

DANNY VU

myartspace id:blueneptune

BIOGRAPHY:

Ad Reinhart once wrote "Art is art. Everything else is everything else." His statement remains validated by the fact that a simple painting can command $100 million or more. Few things--if any--are as coveted and valuable as for something so small, light, and made with such ease. For me, creating art is not about desire or money, but about expressing a labor of love, desire, and obsession. I am a self-taught artist. I've always had a penchant for art ever since I can remember. This was influenced by the fact that I could draw or paint almost anything since childhood. But I never gave much thought to exploiting my artistic abilities until a Gerhard Richter Razor painting at the Art Institute of Chicago mesmerized me during a college field trip. It was an epiphany that made me search deeply into my soul to be the best that I can be so I can someday be considered his contemporary. As I've learned, knowing how to create art is only one facet of being an artist. Any skilled artist can replicate a Rodin sculpture, a Pollock drip painting, or a Man Ray photo. But it takes someone with great imagination, acumen, creativity, substance, and originality to produce something that is noteworthy--and that's what matters. Therefore, it was essential for me to find my own concept and style to compliment my skills; After years of brainstorming and experimenting with various ideas and techniques, I came up with style I perform in my art studio as well as my daily existence. In life, we sometimes must extract the bad in order to obtain the good. I apply this concept to a technique called "abstract extraction", wherein I apply layers of paint to create my works. By doing so, the paint forms impurities such as abnormal areas, unwanted waste, over-abundance, and discoloration, which I then meticulously extract. This process manifests a cornucopia of vivid colors and abstract patterns, thereby producing a clean, aesthetic, abstract, and desired finish. I consciously make an effort to imitate this form of art throughout my daily life by striving to extract the everyday impurities I face such hatred, ignorance, malice, anger, immorality, dirt, odor, etc,. in order to become a better person. It is a form of art we all can and should try to imitate. My passion for art is equally shared with my love for classical music. Nothing penetrates my soul more than engrossing myself with a painting while listening to a Bach cello suite, a Beethoven symphony, or a Schumann piano quintet. Art and classical music are universal languages that are readily recognized, appreciated, and honored throughout the world to enrich the edification of mankind. I am greatly influenced by such masters as Picasso, Dali, Rothko, Pollock, Warhol, and Richter, and deeply inspired by titans such as Bach, Brahms, Mendelssohn, Dvorak, Tchaikovsky, and most notably...Beethoven.

BIOGRAPHY:

Pursuing her passion, art led Ms. Wexler to obtain her BFA in ceramics from Philadelphia College of Art in 1983. That same year, she was awarded the President’s Purchase Award for outstanding achievement. Continuing her education and escaping the unfolding disquiet of her mother’s illnesses, Ms Wexler traveled to California driving across country with her father. Obtaining her MFA in sculpture in 1985 at a very young 24 she wondered what to do. Going into the entertainment industry to earn a quick buck seemed like a good idea. Ms. Wexler continues her pursuit of fine art while still trying to balance the everyday blahs.

BIOGRAPHY:

My strong interest in people, meeting and being with them, has been with me most of my life. It was no surprise that I graduated from University with an honors degree in Cultural Anthropology (1993), with a focus on looking at culture through film and photography. Deciding half way through the B.A. program that I needed more skills in photography, I also pursued an art minor in photography. Since August of 1994, my life has centered on living/working/studying in China, and most of my free time in the beginning was spent walking around the streets of China as a way of trying to understand and see where it was that I was living. Although my language skills in Chinese at the outset were pretty much non-existent, I chose to “capture” and dialogue with the world around me vis-a-vis the use of my 35 mm camera, and as a result produced a substantial body of work.

Luis Nunez

myartspace id:lnunez

BIOGRAPHY:

Born in Marianao, Cuba, Luis has lived in Florida since 1960. In 1977 he graduated with a degree in electrical engineering from the University of Miami. In 1987 Luis, who always had an interest in the visual arts, started painting in oils as a pastime. Shortly thereafter, Luis's paintings began to reveal an unusual quality, which encouraged him to broaden his artistic horizons by joining Florida International University as a visual arts student. In 1993, he graduated with the degree of Bachelor of Fine Arts, Magna Cum Laude. In his last year as a student at FIU, he participated in the 1993 Annual Juried Student Exhibition, where he received the event's highest award, the Perry Purchase Award. Currently Luis is exclusively dedicated to his painting. His studio is located in historical downtown Homestead, Florida. He works mostly with oil paints on stretched canvas; his subject matter is varied, from still lives to an occasional portrait. However, landscape painting is his favorite form of expression. Although, Luis invites the opportunity to paint any landscape anywhere in the world, his heart is in the South Florida landscape. His Everglades, Biscayne Bay, Big Cypress and Florida Keys paintings capture the light, colors and mood of this beautiful and unique part of the world. He has participated in numerous juried exhibitions in the United States. His works are displayed in private collections throughout the United States, Europe, Central America and Australia as well as in public collections such as the Florida International University Art in Public Places, Biscayne National Park, Miami-Dade College, Florida Department of State and the Frost Art Museum.

leonblas bloise

myartspace id:leonblas

BIOGRAPHY:

Leonblas is an artist who surprises and fascinates spectators. Good at all pictorial techniques and sketches, he passes through different styles and periods, and he creates different work that sometimes seems in contrast between themselves, but they are only the natural consequence of his pictorial research. Leonblas's style of painting is born directly from soul: it is pure and sincere. In his pictures, we can find slim colors and a suspended and typical atmosphere, with knowledge of dreams and desires. We can find female figures: the mystery and the amazement of a fantastic and rich world of emotions. Calabrese di origine e di spirito, ma anche toscano-aretino di adozione, pittore e poeta, si approccia all’arte pittorica come autodidatta a partire dagli inizi degli anni Novanta. Socio della prestigiosa Accademia Petrarca di Lettere Arti e Scienze (www.accademiapetrarca.it) La pittura di Leonblas si precisa nei suoi caratteri per l’accentuazione di quei fattori cromatici che mettono a fuoco figure, oggetti o situazioni rappresentate. Ne nasce un mondo che all’uomo comune non appare, distratto della realtà del quotidiano. Ed ecco l’artista che scava, scoperchia per una visualità che non è emozione esteriore, ma che si introduce con l’intuizione, con la sensibilità, con l’esaltazione della ricerca ed anche della ribellione. L’artista fugge da qualsiasi retorica, per dare un volto agli avvenimenti. Non vi sono oggetti o personaggi, ma situazioni in un rapporto costante tra idea-gestualità-colore. La fluidità del gesto è contenuta in uno spazio allusivo, qualche volta solo mentale che può essere una realtà ipotetica ed ugualmente vera. Le pennellate si muovono secondo un certo ritmo, cercando l’intimo, il profondo celato. Il colore si mantiene cupo, ricco di chiaroscuro, qualche volta unico, con messe a fuoco di volti, torsi, architetture. Di qui la forza di Leonblas, un artista carico di valori acquisiti e spontanei, che bene rispecchia il temperamento autentico nel vortice di una avventura che non conosce né pause, né incertezze, per un messaggio che riguarda i valori dell’arte e la sua capacità di comunicarli. Un messaggio che è il grido che lacera tutti i tempi della nostra storia e che l’arte ripropone per individuare gli ideali dello spirito. E’ questa l’arte di Leonblas, un impegno originato da una forza emozionale, prorompente, in una pittura di eccezionale realizzazione e qualità. Nel 2005 riceve, nel corso di una importante cerimonia al Principe di Venezia, il Premio Biennale di Venezia – Rialto, con la seguente motivazione: “Espressionismo di intensa emotività psicologica”. (Giorgio Falossi in “Pittori e scultori italiani del Novecento – 2006 “- edito dal Quadrato) “…Essenza e apparenze: due termini – al plurale il secondo – nel cui involucro battono convulse le ali verità indicibili di ombre, di confessioni senza interlocutore, di schiavitù psicologiche rimosse, di nostalgie dell’ignoto (o dell’infinito, come scrisse Carducci), agitate dall’ermetismo sacrale dell’icona o del feticcio come dal realismo metafisico dechirichiano, dal verso omerico come da Kafka. Oggi, questo davvero essenziale evento espositivo obbliga alla sosta oltre la soglia di tale consapevolezza di pensieri, nel loro ingorgo e nella loro chiarezza, attraverso l’abbagliante bianco/nero (talvolta l’identità del nero sta proprio nel bianco, e viceversa) di Leonblas, lungo le fisionomie dei suoi corpi-volto, nell’àngor che le delinea…” (Rodolfo Tommasi – Dicembre 2005) “…la pittura di Leonblas…è scandita da situazioni e non da personaggi, sebbene questi appena riconoscibili, diano il senso dell’immagine, caratterizzata da un colore cupo, denso e dato dinamicamente. Lontano da accenti retorici, i quadri di Leonblas comunicano messaggi non privi di riferimenti alla solitudine, alla drammaticità di certe azioni e situazioni, indicandola attraverso uno <>…” (Liletta Fornasari in “La Nazione di Arezzo – Ven. 18 dicembre 2005” “..Una resa scrupolosamente analitica, celebrale si respira. Un'aria di sospensione atemporale, quasi come se in punta di piedi ci permettesse di entrare nel suo mondo, ovvero in quello appunto dell'artista: Leonblas. In ogni caso questo dato non porta ad escludere un'alta organicità pittorica. Nelle opere di Leonblas vi è come il riverbero di un lietmotiv: il cerchio,la sfera quasi a volerci trasmettere il passaggio del tempo, il suo inarrestarsi ed il saper, il dover saper cogliere il bello nelle piccole cose: come il riappropriarci del sapore del gioco. Si vedano quindi altri lavori (da tenere sempre presente che Leonblas è un pittore autodidatta) come "Il gioco del cerchio","La città delle sfere" e" La musica al riposo", dove vi è espressione di quanto appena enunciato, un qualcosa di De Chirichiano, ma dove è anche possibile trovare, nella perfetta stesura cromatica, affinità con quello che fu il grande Wassily Kandinky (il richiamo è ad esempio plausibile nel dipinto "paesaggio con campanile") anche perché in questo artista ci fu un altissimo studio verso la forma geometrica del cerchio. La bellezza artistica di Leonblas è quel saper attingere dalla tradizione, sapendo poi concretamente rielaborarla, creando così nuove teche di splendida arte pittorica...”.

myartspace id:cnoyes

BIOGRAPHY:

International painter Connie Noyes received her MFA from the Art Institute of Chicago and has been honored at home and abroad for her energetic painting style. Her work, an examination of the pull between centripetal versus centrifugal emotional forces, is influenced by the cultural landscape and compassion for global issues. The artist’s strong love of paint, surface and process is deeply set in her sense of independence and individualism of spirit. Constantly seeking a balance between chaos and control she works spontaneously to allow the painting itself to dictate the final outcome. Through exploitation of the unique properties of paint—purity of color, luminosity and plasticity, once finished her rich paintings erupt with a physical energy quieted in the process of creation. Born in Washington D.C, Noyes has moved over 40 times in her life. Currently living and working as a full time artist in Chicago, she considers herself a 21st Century nomad. Through study, an MA in psychology, and travel she has developed an interest in the unconscious psychology of culture; and how art can support dialog and bypass cultural differences. Noyes’ interest and experience of global culture has been supported through sponsors in a variety of prestigious international artist’s residencies and symposiums, including the Emaar International Art Symposium in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (2005), the Thupelo International Workshop in Cape Town, South Africa (2005) and the 6th Annual International Symposium of Art in Bulgaria (2006). In 2007 she participated in the 5th International Visual Arts Symposium in Monastir, Tunisia. She is also an active member of Pintura Fresca, an international abstract painters group. http://www.pinturafresca.net
