 Rosella Streett |
 Alive |
Rosella holds a BFA in Painting from the University of North Carolina and is working on her MFA from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. In her own words "Originality, beauty, and mortality are the key elements to my central philosophy as an artist. For me, originality starts with a desire to constantly refine my own technique. I am extremely disciplined and systematic when it comes to my process. Yet, I also keep an open-minded outlook when approaching a subject, thus allowing my imagination to add it’s influence. I also look for inspiration in unusual places such as quotes, writings, and other random observations that I sometimes incorporate into my work." |
 Jarik Jongman |

Jarik comments on his work "The last few years I have been mostly working in oil paint. I use both my own photographs and anonymous pictures found in fleamarkets, books, magazines and the internet. as a departing point for my work, to which I then add certain elements. In my recent work for example, I have been using photographs of interiors of old or derelict houses and factories to which I've added growing plants. In another series of motel rooms I've added small clouds or mysterious lights." |

 Angelika J. Trojnarski |
 Paintings |
Angelika J. Trojnarski was born in 1979 in Mragowo, Poland, and studies at the Academy of Fine Arts in Düsseldorf since 2004. At first under Herbert Brandl and, before his death in 2007, Jörg Immendorff. Her paintings, recently on view in the US for the first time, hark back to the advent of modernism with their subdued palette, painterly handling of oils and assemblage of semi-finished and deconstructed imagery culled from an agitated sub-conscious. The echoes of post-war trauma in her work come as no surprise given the haunting legacy the Second World War bequeathed the two nations she is most closely associated with - Poland and Germany. |
