THIS SATURDAY :: Sept. 19 :: Artists Reception

2009-09-15T18:54:00.000-07:00

This Saturday we are celebrating our Sixth year in our Culver City Location with a really great Installation based Exhibition.

C E R A S O L I g a l l e r y Presents;

MICHELE CARLSON ‘Relics and Warnings’
HELLOVON ‘Semblance’
DEREK ALBECK & FRENCH 'The Initiation’

September 19 – October 14, 2009
Opening Reception: THIS Saturday, September 19, 6-9pm

Michele Carlson’s ‘Relics and Warnings’ is an exploration through collaged drawings of the spaces between history, memory, loss, and collectivity. Carlson’s surrealistic images of raven-haired women adorned in fabrics rich with ethnic patterns acting out the iconography of the artist’s own secret mythologies are visually seductive, interpersonal tableaux. Drawn to the allegories of lost cities and the relationship those myths have on contemporary diasporic communities, Carlson's works symbolize imagined forgotten cultures of faraway homelands. Invoking graffiti art practices, hip hop culture, homespun altar memorials, and cautionary fables, Carlson’s work delves into the detritus of the collision of contradictory sociopolitical ideas, where the valorization of certain lifestyles and memories becomes blurred with its victims’ fates. Carlson holds an MFA in Printmaking, MA in Visual & Critical Studies from the California College of the Arts, and she also holds her BFA in Printmaking and BAs in Interdisciplinary Visual Arts and American History from the University of Washington.

Wispy, luminous, and waif-like, the portraits in HelloVon’s ‘Semblance’ show at Cerasoli Gallery gaze openly at viewers with the curiosity and allure of striking strangers with whom fantastic adventures may be possible. Engaging, beautiful, and tantalizingly untouchable, Von’s subjects seem born from a malleable reality, perhaps composed while amiably daydreaming. The drawings in ‘Semblance’ are indicative of Von’s fascination with image construction, form, distortion and the process of drawing itself. Utilizing a blend of traditional and digital mark making techniques, Von’s original drawings have been featured as part of Creative Review’s award-winning Monograph series and featured on billboards from London to New York in the Migration exhibition, adopted by Liberty of London for their relaunch and appeared on the catwalk at Milan Fashion Week as part of the Trussardi A/W 09 collection. HelloVon is the globally branded studio of London-based illustrator and artist Von. Von’s work has been exhibited at The London Design Museum and featured in Rolling Stone, Playboy, the New York Times and Esquire. ‘Semblance’ will be Von’s debut solo show in Los Angeles.

Derek Albeck and French’s ‘The Initiation’ in Gallery Three consists of works in a variety of medias, including drawings, serigraphs, video and a small installation. With a shared interest in the occult, Albeck and French explore the idea of an initiation rite as interpreted by two artists working in different techniques and with unique conceptual ideas. The works are mutual investigations of forms of transformation and passage as rites of initiation, as well as tongue-in-cheek meditations on extreme music, such as a metal song by the band Inquisition. Derek Albeck lives and works in Los Angeles developing complex figurative works influenced by his background in graphic printmaking. His work has been exhibited in the U.S., Canada, and the U.K. French is an artist from South East England whose love of metal music, history and story-telling informs his often dark artwork. He has exhibited in the UK, France, Denmark, Sweden, the U.S., Australia and Israel.

CATHERINE RYAN - Shiny Squirrel interview

2009-09-05T11:43:00.000-07:00

"The Little Interview with Catherine Ryan"
Read the full interview here+

If you could draw/ paint like one artist who would it be?

Even though there are many artists that I admire, I don't think I would want to draw or paint like anyone but myself.

Are there any contemporary artists you identify with?

There are a lot of artists whose work I really relate to right now.
Two that stand out for me are Robyn O'Neil and James Benjamin Franklin.

Do your past experiences affect the work you are creating today?

I would guess that my work is most affected by things that I experienced as a child. But I'm not exactly sure how.

CERASOLI gallery is looking forward to CATHERINE RYAN's
forth coming 2010 solo exhibition February 6 - March 3.

ROY NACHUM Artslant Review

2009-09-02T12:25:00.000-07:00

The Patina of Paint Pixels- on line artslant review

"....There are a number of times in my life where I can think back and recall times where I’ve stood in front of a canvas and been struck by how differently I’d see the picture if I didn’t see the deep brush strokes or seen how the grain of a wooden panel gave an image added tension or movement. Many times in art there’s no substitute for the experience of standing in a room in front of the work, and ‘Prophecy’ certainly qualifies as one of those times...." read the full review here+

DAVID OBRIEN Yatzer Feature

2009-08-26T17:44:00.000-07:00

David O’Brien recently was featured on Yatzer

"David O’Brien’s architecturally derived ink and color pencil paintings are instantly captivating. Dynamic geometrical shapes – prisms, diamonds, pinwheels, stars, etc. – leave you mesmerized, and quite possibly hypnotized. Its simplicity is spectacular, but at a closer look, it’s actually not simple at all but rather incredibly mathematically and geometrically abstract. What’s so interesting about viewing O’Brien’s work is the feeling like you’re departing from reality and entering a world of kaleidoscopic chaos and cosmological bliss...." text by Stepahnie Nahas for Yatzer

JOHN GRANDE recent exhibition review

2009-08-26T16:45:00.000-07:00

John Grande recent East Hampton's exhibition “My Cindy, Your Cindy” @The Sara Nightingale through Sept. 3 receives a local press review;

On Shelter Island, Three Shows Go Figure By Jennifer Landes

'......Perhaps the most coolly conceptual, the subjects in Mr. Grande’s exhibit may look disarmingly familiar and are, of course, if you have been paying attention at all to late-20th-century photography. The subjects are primarily from Ms. Sherman’s original “Untitled Film Stills” series, a full portfolio of 69 black-and-white photographs that famously sold some 15 years ago to the Museum of Modern Art, anointing them for the ages as part of the canon and preserving them as a complete unit.

Mr. Grande has taken them and some later works as the subjects of his oil paintings. Absent is the nudge of irony one might expect from such a treatment. His faithfully replicated paintings, which include the original photograph’s own abstractions, are more homage than anything snarky or disrespectful....'

ROY NATCHUM'S NATURAL HABITAT

2009-08-18T12:14:00.000-07:00

An impressive aspect of Roy Nachum is his ability to design, understand space and pay attention to detail. His extra avant gard interior design projects, are conceptual, dramatic and unique. Nachum sees each space in which he creates not only to be beautiful, for him the space is a story full of surprises and conflicts, for him it is to build an enormous sculpture in which people experience from inside. Nachum's signature to every design is his art. The space itself is art and to complete the story he collaborate his paintings.

Nachum has designed nightclubs and restaurants throughout New York and around the world. In New York City he designed the ultra exclusive nightclubs Door and 1oak. Busy restaurants: Saucy, Five Napkin Burger, Rino Ceronte, SuperHotDog and Justin Timberlake’s Southern Hospitality. He created the art for Tao Las Vegas.

"A counterpoint to all the glitter and glam, 1Oak’s interior, where Akiva’s vision was carried out by creative director and artist Roy Nachum, exudes an old world charm. Nachum’s mysterious, hand-painted murals are complemented by neo-Louis XIV furniture......" Ken Scrudato

AT FIRST GLANCE - ROY NACHUM'S paintings

2009-08-17T19:44:00.000-07:00

UPCOMING EXHIBITION : ROY NACHUM 'Prophecy'
Opening Reception: Saturday August 22, 6-9pm

Roy Nachum 'Prophecy' 2009
oil on canvas 50x55"

At first glance the paintings by Roy Nachum can easily be confused with digital art. However, his works are actually oil paintings on canvas that are painted in a way that spurs the viewer to investigate further. Nachum creates his images by utilizing the idea of pixels. Each ‘pixel’ is painted one-by-one. The end result is a painting that comes together in a unique manner. Nachum describes this as creating micro worlds that come together in order to form the pattern of a single reality or of a dream.

Roy Nachum 'Sacrifices of Ones' Own desire' detail 2008
oil on canvas, 47x71"

This different technique also creates the desire of a physical approach to the piece, inviting people to feel and touch every pixel, experience the virtual and physical coming together in one unique moment. Influenced by everything that surrounds Nachum examines daily behaviors of different people, what makes them do the things they do and why-- what they take for granted and why they do so. Thought, making and results – this is the origin of Nachum’s inspiration.

Acrylic & spray paint on canvas, 24x30"

UPCOMING EXHIBITION

2009-07-03T13:19:00.000-07:00

One of Australia’s pioneering street to gallery artists, MEGGS 'Crime & Charity’ will be on view in Gallery two. Opens July 11, 2009, and remains on view through August 1, 2009.

Pop culture references tinged with nostalgia for childhood heroes and villains, Meggs’ eclectic works explore the notion of duality and the on-going question of morals, rights and authorities. Reflecting on personal experience, Meggs produces energetic depictions of heroes, villains, and subverted collages of pop culture symbology. In ‘Toy Boy’ a cartoon mouse implodes with the pent up energy of a marble furiously swirled inside a can of spray paint. In ‘Love, Hate’ comic book word bubbles declare ‘It’s happened ! The time has come !’ as fists pound through bloodied layers of amputated imagery in an unholy alliance of Pop and abstract expressionism. Meggs’ work has been exhibited internationally and is included in the National Gallery of Australia’s permanent collection.

Oil on canvas canvas, 92x68"

John Grande is here preparing for his Solo Exhibition Opening this Saturday.

JOHN GRANDE 'Glamour and Gloom' in Gallery One
April 18 – May 13 , 2009
Opening Reception: Saturday April 18, 6 - 9pm

Grande’s approach to painting is influenced by high fashion photographers such as Annie Liebowitz, with whom the artist worked as a printmaker for years. His doll-like subjects are rendered in high relief with dramatic light and dark contrasts,reflecting both innocence and idealistic beauty as well as eluding to underlying chaos and mystery. Inspired by life and the consequences of its destruction, Grande’s paintings touch on enigmas of sexual culture and stereotypes while investigating the connection between art and fashion.

Way before the Bansky effect took hold on the market and before we had our first gallery space (The Lab 101), we co-curated this little show in London. We were turned down by loads of galleries before the wonderful Adrian Palengat let us host this exhibition in his nice Portobello Road space - APART.

Kristen Schiele Installation @the SCOPE Art Fair in NYC

2009-03-03T10:14:00.000-08:00

Special Projects Installation
“Riding America Like a Cheap Pony”

Scope Art Fair New York City, Lincoln Center, NYC
March 4-8 2009

Kristen Schiele creates "RIDING AMERICA LIKE A CHEAP PONY," a full-scale timber frame house installation. Based on the artist's 2D works, the house is a scenic domestic land of memorabilia made from dumpster-derived objects and found timber. Mock Rifles, games, and hand-made textiles symbolize the hard currency (and real spirit of) the Great American Experiment.

Image of Installation in progress

In conjunction with Lilah Freedland's "Fast Cheap and Out of Control" print bonanza, live music film and videos. Check the scope website for schedule and don't miss Martha Colburn's new stop animation piece with live musical accompaniment by Ryan Sawyer.

New works by David O'Brien

2009-02-19T17:16:00.000-08:00

David's second Solo Exhibition with us at the C E R A S O L I gallery entitled 'Explosions in a Mental Sky' opens this coming march.

O'Brien strives to integrate his own highly personalized, hand crafted language with more universal forms and landscapes. From a distance, O'Brien's patterns are expansive, giving the beautiful illusion of a moonscape clustered with geometric stalagmites, astro dust floating through space. *find a full press release on our site
