Her well-known sculptures include the Women's Vietnam Memorial in Washington, D.C., the Sacagawea design on the United States Dollar coin, and the massive thirty-five figure Irish Memorial in Philadelphia. </p><p><br /></p><p>'Waterbearer' depicts a traditional Pueblo woman. It was made in a very small edition of fifteen. It is also of note that with this bronze, Ms. Goodacre did each pot design personally with patina chemicals so that every pot design is different. This makes for a truly unique work and a wonderful bronze for collecting... or gift-giving.<br /> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><p></p><div class="gs" style="background-color: white; font-family: Roboto, RobotoDraft, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; width: 872px;"><div><div class="ii gt" id=":161" style="direction: ltr; font-size: 0.875rem; margin: 8px 0px 0px; padding: 0px; position: relative;"><div class="a3s aiL" id=":162" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: 1.5; overflow: hidden;"><div class="yj6qo"></div><div class="adL"></div></div></div><div class="hi" style="background: rgb(242, 242, 242); border-bottom-left-radius: 1px; border-bottom-right-radius: 1px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; width: auto;"></div></div></div>Saks Gallerieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11178140529785563113noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513171510983925168.post-52588867313871633242020-10-18T16:20:00.000-07:002020-10-18T16:20:17.589-07:00Raj Chaudhuri Paints the Grand Canyon.<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBfsNU7Us4yfKMJE8uAseE11d8MUnUNepH85PaYh0rtV-mq1nr9xPQxUzs6XUpTCXVR3z8U4acVVW7_GO0Ca-t8UQDy6YSRtGW7nmUwVFgXHqtvtbsz6_G6gPxS2clSzGsk682upUqetI/" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"></a><div style="text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlJJlx7N11JhHsbe6ZGa6LcjK9_YAdpv0pjTaVMdTjov0mvc_OlaNiKGkE3Zp9HGxDfB5BaDT0IXJ0KrZnXqCIiok7OFSZEHNZ4aTqt5Q0DWva2PziExDYVjOfKQtj-sCYYkmCs5PxWMk/s2048/IMG_9103+copy.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="309" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlJJlx7N11JhHsbe6ZGa6LcjK9_YAdpv0pjTaVMdTjov0mvc_OlaNiKGkE3Zp9HGxDfB5BaDT0IXJ0KrZnXqCIiok7OFSZEHNZ4aTqt5Q0DWva2PziExDYVjOfKQtj-sCYYkmCs5PxWMk/w232-h309/IMG_9103+copy.jpg" width="232" /></a></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: left;">The Weather at the Grand Canyon literally changes by the hour.

Doing several studies and actually, a video for the Made For Artists on this subject, this large landscape (pictured above) has slowly emerged. Working on it, slowing down, putting myself back in the canyon, and picturing it. Focusing on the abstract/shape elements of the painting. The edges in this painting play a critical part in its viewing. The painting is about the light value shape with its yellowish, reddish, greenish mother color driving the design.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: large;">Visit our <a href="http://denverartgalleries.co/In-Bloom">www.saksgalleries.com</a> to see this</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-size: large;">new arrivals and many more!</span></div></td></tr></tbody></table><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><br /><p></p>Saks Gallerieshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11178140529785563113noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513171510983925168.post-64571306160908060512020-05-16T09:50:00.001-07:002020-05-16T09:50:19.081-07:00In Bloom Virtual Exhibition Now Open!<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

The artistic explosion of talent in Zuni silver and stonework of the mid-20th Century is known as the Zuni Renaissance (c.1930-c.1960). It came at an historic crossroads of events and human endeavor. Seashells from the Gulf of Mexico and trade items such as silver crosses and brass ornaments were brought laboriously to the Southwestern Pueblos before New Mexico became a U.S. territory in 1846. The Spanish missions brought Christianity to the Zuni but they never lost sight of their own Creation mythology, the god/goddess Awonawilona, and spirits such as the Knifewing, protector of the village. In the first decades after 1900 there were many technical advantages for silver workers that had not been available in prior times. Commercial solder and blow torches were superior to using borax and silver shavings over an open fire. Electricity was used for lighting and other tools of the trade. The advent of the railroads in the Rio Grande Valley brought customer, national interest and opportunities for all Indian craftspeople. And into this mix of history and commerce emerged the highly gifted artists of Zuni.<br />
<br />
One of the most innovative and compelling jewelers of this period was Dan Simplicio. In certain ways he was traditional -- hand-making his own decorative bezels, wire and sheet from ingot silver bars. He is however also credited with being the first to use branch uncut coral nuggets and branches in his pieces. His distinctive silver applied leaves and stamped silver drops became hallmarks of his style. His stone work included carving as well as mosaic and channel inlay. The resulting works were expressive and highly original, paving the way for a modernist movement in Native American silversmithing well into the later 20th Century.<br />
<br />
Simplicio, along with many nearby Navajo and Zuni jewelers, worked primarily for trader Charles Garrett Wallace at the Zuni trading post in New Mexico. Artists such as Leo Poblano, Juan de Dios (Simplicio’s uncle), Leekya Deyuse, Teddie Weahkee, Frank Vacit and Frank Dishta like traded materials, tools and ideas with Simplicio and among each other -- a synergy Wallace and other traders encouraged by providing the artists with a steady marketplace and exemplary materials.<br />
<br />
Many public and online museum displays of Simplicio’s work are available for further viewing: The Heard Museum, Phoenix; The Wheelwright Museum, Santa Fe; The Albuquerque Museum; The Kennedy Collection of Ohio University.<br />

Edward Aldrich is an artist dedicated to reaching beyond the realistic rendering of wildlife and the natural world. He is convinced that conveying the inherent being of an animal is integral to his work. His style breathes life into his subjects and invokes the viewer into feeling that he or she is actually a witness to the scene. The viewer is not left to simply look and appreciate, but is drawn into experiencing the essence of what is depicted. In short, his is an art of feeling as well as portrayal.<br />

<br /></div>
<br />
<br />
1. Buy what you love<br />
<ul>
<li>It sounds simple but there is an element of “you’ll know it when you see it” or love at first sight when making your first art purchase. Art is also an investment in your current home and happiness, don’t buy something because you think it will be worth more one day, buy it because of the joy it brings you today.</li>
</ul>
<div>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

2. Browse<br />
<ul>
<li>Take your time looking around, maybe make a few laps around the gallery to get a feel for the artists and different styles. See something that you like but it’s not quite right? We almost always have other works by the artists in inventory that we’re more than happy to show you.</li>

A visitor to his office in the War Department near the White House would have seen a carefully collected ‘museum’ of Indian artifacts. There were buffalo hides, ceremonial pipes, clothing and even a full size canoe over the doorway. Importantly, there were also portrait paintings of many of the tribal Chiefs and Sub-Chiefs that had come to Washington to meet the Great White Father, accept gifts and peace medals and sign peace treaties. Most of these portraits were done by the well known artist Charles Bird King.<br />

The ritual of inviting the Indian Chiefs to Washington was one of the original stated missions of the Lewis & Clark Expedition brilliantly initiated by Thomas Jefferson. The underlying strategy presented to a hesitant Congress by Jefferson was to not only explore the vast continent West of the Mississippi for future settlement but more immediately to control the rivers and fur trade that had been previously dominated by French and English interests.<br />
<br />

However, McKenney’s ideas of treating the Indians fairly and with respect were ideologically not in line with the policies of the Andrew Jackson administration and therefore he was forced to resign his post in 1830. By this time, however, he had already had the idea of making a series of lithographs after the collection of Indian portraits. It was a project that took him the next fourteen years to complete -- through years of near bankruptcy, numerous printers and emotional distress.<br />
<br />
His persistence was a blessing to the following generations because it happened that most of the original Charles Bird King paintings were destroyed in a fire at the then new Smithsonian Institution in 1865. So the only record we have today of these early Indians are in fact the lithographs made by McKenney. They stand as some of the finest and most important prints ever made in America.<br />

Ken is a colorist with the landscape as the focus of that interest. His works are not portraits of places but scenes that are subjected to abstraction – still recognizable but infused with colors and values beyond the normal. </div>

For over 25 years he has explored his landscape themes, subjecting them to dramatic extremes of light and color combinations that are richly stimulating and at times poetic. </div>

His works are direct, showing the lessons of the Impressionist as well as Modern schools. For the past 25 years, he has worked primarily in oils and pastels. </div>

“I am continually drawn to the landscape and it’s infinite variations. The compositions are a starting point for unexpected things to happen. By pushing what is possible in the scene, new potentials are presented and I’m intrigued to follow. The works never follow a straight or efficient path because I am looking for what is not known and to bring it into form. I am trying to thrill myself and offer something new and precious to the viewer.” </div>

Her formal art education was acquired at the Academie Royale in Ghent, Belgium beginning in 1946. Upon graduation she was awarded the Academy’s Gold Medal, it’s highest honor. But it was not until 1950, when she exhibited a canvas, The Spanish Lady, at the Exposition Nationale Quadriennale in Ghent which received critical acclaim that her professional career truly began. She was soon commissioned to paint her first series of the 14 Stations of the Cross for St. John the Baptist Church in Ghent, a city that remained her true home for the remainder of her life.<br />

In 1960, Bradi came to the United States to rest and visit friends in Peetz, Colorado, a small town on the Eastern Plains. Inspired by the new surroundings she produced a series of stained glass windows for the local church -- this is now a landmark which draws visitors from far and wide and has additionally become a sort of shrine in itself for collectors and followers of her work. On a trip to Denver, the capital of Colorado, Bradi was introduced to Lemon Saks, the founder of Saks Galleries, which at the time was called Denver Art Galleries located in downtown Denver. The relationship blossomed and there were numerous sold-out exhibitions with paintings going to important collections and museums. Mr. Saks in turn introduced her to other important galleries, such as Hammer Galleries in New York and Tooth and Sons in London which brought her work international acclaim.<br />

The paintings of Bradi Barth have a profound purity and elegance, perhaps due to her knowledge of the Renaissance Masters and the very traditional medium of egg tempera. But there is more…..the use of complicated glazes, clear bold colors, and a controlled craquelure that one seldom sees anywhere else. In the pristine costumes and compositions one is reminded of Flemish Masters such as Memling and Van Der Weyden. Bradi’s personality and religious convictions, evident in the paintings, are part of the attraction, along with her sensitivity and freshness. A foundation she established in 2000 provides postcards and traveling exhibitions of her work for churches throughout Europe. Before her death in 2007, Bradi also donated a series of 36 paintings to a convent, Zusters van Liefde, near her hometown, in Kortemark, Belgium.<br />

<span style="font-family: Baskerville, serif;">I have always been close to the land, felt part of it. As a child, it pained me to tears every time a new housing development went in near our house, or a new road was carved into the ground, destroying the woodlands that I felt connected to and was playground and companion. And while I eventually resigned myself to the fact that this was just the way things go, I never have felt entirely comfortable with it.<b><o:p></o:p></b></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Baskerville, serif;">The idea that these landscapes are cut up and carved out, and broken down, reflects what has happened to much of our Colorado landscape in sometimes intelligent and many times misguided attempts to make life better in some fashion for its inhabitants. The sometimes unintended, and sometimes intentional consequences have resulted in lands, waterways, and natural features taking a beating..... stamped on, trampled over, bulldozed, cut up by highways, destroyed by drilling, fracking, and abuses. In these pieces I have broken down large landscape pieces into smaller bits, dripped and thrown paint, scratched and scraped back some of the shapes the way I would approach a pure abstract painting, in order to see some of the history of the painting process. I have also erased some of the process in other parts of the painting, very much the way much of our natural history has been erased, not just in Colorado, but everywhere. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Baskerville, serif;">These pieces were the result of a lot of studio experimentation and process toward my goal of abstracting the landscape, but I didn't really see the connection to some very old buried feelings that had surfaced until well after these particular paintings were completed. I didn't set out to make that statement. But over the course of a lifetime of pursuing art, I would imagine that, all that I feel, all that I experience, and everything that has made me what I am will eventually find its way into the art making process. It is the result of a lifetime of exploring the question as to why I paint.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

During WWII, artists began to have a difficult time finding canvas and would often use non-traditional surface for their creations. Around 1943-1944, Oskar Fischinger was able to acquire 20 pieces of celotex (a composition board).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In the excerpt below, William Moritz discusses <i>The Red Bowl</i> in his book, <i>Optical Poetry: The Life and Work of Oskar Fischinger</i></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For about a year’s time, during 1943/ 1944, he painted all 20 celotexes simultaneously, strolling about the studio making a few lines here, a dash there, sponging an area, scraping a bit, painting over something, etc. What a sight they must have been in 1944 with nearly all complete!</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The wonderful “Red Bowl”… consists of a dozen pure geometric forms on a brown background, each of the areas lightly brushed so that the texture of the Celotex shows through, and several of the shapes overlapping so that blue and yellow and cinnabar almost combine to recreate the brown of the background which they cover: while the forms balance each other harmonically as an absolute composition, Oskar’s playful arrangement leads one to speculate if triangles in the upper area might not be pyramids – indeed if one overlapped by a pointed oval might not be the “eye” on the pyramid familiar from Egyptian/ Alchemical/ Masonic mysticism…</div>

After studying under his father, acclaimed artist <a href="http://denverartgalleries.co/Gordon-Brown">Gordon Brown</a>, for a number of years, Andrew has found his own distinct style.<br />
<br />
He utilizes layering and destruction; building up and knocking down paint to create vivid lines, striking depth, and detailed texture. Andrew further pushes the limits of his art by hand picking the richest pigments and mixing his own paint, giving him the freedom to manipulate the properties of oil paint itself.<br />

Not to leave anyone out, Sara has been influenced by the male counterparts of the American Abstraction Expressionist Movement as well. Willem de Kooning, Gerhard Richter, Mark Rothko, Cy Twombly and Franz Kline, all young passionate thinkers who developed their own sense of creating through the irresolute period of World War II. The darkness and uncertainty of the times brought out the strong emotions of these painters fulfilling a desire to shed the archaic forms of cultural expression.<br />

Living in Taos, New Mexico gives artist Dinah Worman a constant source of imagery to fill her canvases. After years of painting pastels successfully, she shifted direction in a straight line to oils creating landscapes with a unique view. Dinah Worman designs a landscape that is abstract, stark, seemingly flattened out on the canvas dotted with benign white-faced cows all alone in trapezoidal fields. A modern view, derived strictly Dinah says from a subconscious level.</div>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: 16px;">Growing up at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, Stacey developed a love for the outdoors that influences her artwork today. While Peterson’s professional background is in the field of environmental engineering, she has always been interested in drawing and painting. She took up oil painting after graduating from college, concentrating on portraiture at first and then turning her focus to the landscape. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman, serif;"><span style="font-size: 16px;">An avid backpacker, hiker, and mountain biker, Peterson draws upon her time outdoors to provide the inspiration for her oil paintings. She often works on location, and uses her plein air studies as reference for studio works that typically depict locations in the wilderness areas of Colorado and the Rocky Mountain West.</span></span></div>
