Curator's Picks

The Talented AMANI OLU carefully
selected six works out of hundreds for everyone to enjoy. View his impressive selection below.
 Laurence Scholder Swarm III Spit bite aquatint $500
Laurence Scholder's work fuels creativity
and inspiration. His discovery of clusters, color, pattern and
repetition in the natural world results in a visual epiphany. His most recent works
incorporate playful, rich palette in order to explore patterns and
layers. The repetition of circular imagery evoke microscopic forms and
astronomical vastness at the same time.
 Nicola Tyson Gossip, 2006 Drypoint $1,500
Nicola Tyson's a master of
minimalism. She imbues simple markings with emotional intensity and
charge, proving time and time again that less can be more. Her work is
studied and dense, quiet and deeply engaging.
 Kate Shaw Precipice, 2009 Giclee archival print $900
Kate Shaw's intensely
alluring and complex prints have a dreamlike quality to them. She uses
color and subtle pattern variations in an innovative way to create
other-worldly abstractions.
 John Baldessari Man, Dog (Blue), Canoe/Shark Fins (One Yellow), Capsized Boat, 2001 Lithograph $3,500
Internationally
renowned and critically acclaimed artist, John Baldessari, explores the
nature of representation through text and form. His electric-color
accents are a nod Pop Art. In a sense, he is a scavenger and collector
of visual data. He uses the canvas to edit that data and present it to
the world in an evocative way. His prints are in integral part of his
oeuvre where he experiments to push the boundaries of art even further
and is always looking to critique art in any way he can. His prints and
drawings are artworks in and of themselves and also help create the
basis for larger series of paintings. This ironic print is vibrant and
pops off the wall and the subject matter is easy to relate to.
If I saw the art
around me that I liked, then I wouldn't do art. -John Baldessari
 Michael Ray Charles (Forever Free) The Fall of a Proper Nigga... Not Guilty? Color Lithograph $2,500
Austin-based
artist
Michael Ray Charles is one of America's most astute artistic
interpreters of racial stereotypes as they have been manifested in U.S.
history. His ironic confrontations of racism, such as his reversal of
"white power" challenge viewers to reexamine their socio-political
views. He is a pop-culturalist whose extensive body of work was
influenced by this background in advertising. He unique approach employs
a certain visual prowess to communicate messages about race and
identity. His prints reflect the current time we are living and raised
awareness about race politics influence on popular culture. This print
is an important example of the intersection between art and media.
 Suzanne Caporael Arbitrary World, 2007 Lithography, pochoir $3,000
Suzanne Caporael's work focuses on the
temporal beauty of nature by examining the relationships between
elements, primarily the meeting of water land. Caporael investigates the
physical world and transforms the intellectual and methodical data she
has collected into sublime and resonate images. Through these complex
and varied natural phenomenons, Caporael brings her own particular
scientific approach; the implied grid system and multicolored amorphous
forms suggest data gleaned from such varying sources as text, scientific
data, and documentary photographs. As Grace Glueck stated in The New
York Times, "...you might say that if natural laws were to express
themselves through paint, something akin to her work could result."

 Edward Munch print sells for $1.91m at Bonhams The gallery scene might be
a tad slow during the summer, but recent auction at Bonhams in London
is just another proof that the art market is rebounding. On July 13, Edward Munch's 1895 print, Madonna, sold at the auction
house for 1,252,000 ($1.91 million), which more than doubled its low
estimate and set the record as the most expensive print sold at auction
in the United Kingdom. The sale is just another proof that a great
quality print will always be valuable.
