Jeffrey Fulvimari at Gallery Hanahou

I got a lovely email from the Gallery Hanahou about their upcoming exhibitions. I took a peek at their shop and was delighted to find work from my favorites Tina Berning, Stina Persson and Jeffrey Fulvimari. I especially loved the concept of Jeffrey’s paper plates… simple paper plates adorned by Jeffrey with his trademark girls. There’s something lovely about seeing doodles and illustrations done on paper plates and paper napkins. Lovely stuff.

20 plates, $150 each.

Jen Garrido

Such a crazy week for me. I apologize for neglecting this…. I was looking at d*s and saw that Grace had posted about the paintings of Jen Garrido. These are totally swoon-worthy and I had to post them here too. Great color combinations, great compositions and form. So graphic… reminds me of this Marimekko fabric but with an edge plus gorgeous textures. Beautiful stuff.

Dale Chihuly @ the New York Botanical Gardens

Dale Chihuly, one of the most innovative glass artists (in my humble opinion), will be exhibiting at the New York Botanical Gardens beginning June 25th until October 29th. His work evokes floral form so elegantly with gorgeous color and fantastic surface treatments on his glass sculptures… I can’t wait to see it in a garden setting. I’ve only seen his work once in person (a glass chandelier at the Mint Museum, Charlotte, North Carolina) and it was truly stunning. I am so looking forward to this.

A Collage A Day

Randel Plowman‘s A Collage A Day has such beautiful work. Everyday a new 4×4 collage is posted for sale for $25 which includes gallery matting, documentation and free shipping within the US. The collages themselves are comprised of found type, illustrations and patterns. Love it to death.

Ceste, $25. N & N, $25.

Matthew Curry

Graffiti influences and a dark, gritty feeling is what I think of when I see Matthew Curry‘s work. Great colors and form. Love the drips and drabs of paint and the quality of the brush strokes. MakingRoom Magazine has a great interview with Mr. Curry and he explains his process. His process is further illustrated in the step-by-step gallery of one of his works in the article.

Scott Ingram

Scott Ingram‘s work allows for fate to step in. He has begun using nail polish as a medium (range of colors and high gloss finish make it attractive.) and pours it directly on his surfaces. What results is due to gravity, room conditions, nail polish consistency and fate. I enjoy looking at his work for the sheer simplicity of it all.

From Mr. Ingram's exhibition Drip: New Drawings: Detail of a site-specific installation in the gallery. Two paintings.
