MAKING WAVES a Faculty Exhibition August 21 - September 12     "Linden Bark Red" knitted industrial wire sculpture by Joyce Goodman.  Photo credit:  Cathy Carver The heart of the Art League of Long Island is its distinguished and dedicated faculty. In advance of the fall semester, the Art League of Long Island honors them in an exhibition of their personal work.    The Art League's faculty is comprised of well-respected, award-winning artists who also share a common goal of excellence in teaching art to students of all ages and abilities.  They are dedicated to introducing new techniques and materials to their students, challenging them to root out compositional clichés and  getting them to think about their work in new ways.   In addition to its long-time group of master teachers in the classic areas of painting, drawing, ceramics, and sculpture, the Art League is making waves in presenting new classes and workshops that go beyond the traditional forms of expression.  For example, one of their newest faculty members, a professional goldsmith, takes knitting to another level as she teaches students how to create unique jewelry by knitting with metal wire.  Teaching artists also conduct classes in mosaic design, fused glass, digital photography, painting on silk to make wearable art, and other specialized jewelry techniques. Admission to the exhibit is open to the general public at no charge Monday through Friday 9am - 4pm and on Saturdays 11am - 4pm.   The gallery will be closed Monday September 6 in observance of the Labor Day holiday.

Recent Paintings of Hemraj

Hemraj

This comes to my mind when I look at the paintings of Hem Raj. His paintings help us to reach a point of thinking through meditation,

a point of wordless and unintellectual understanding, which lie behind signs and symbols. His paintings lead us on a kind of tantric path,

a path that combines meditation with consciousness. Meditation, the means of reaching a world beyond thinking, is an important concern

of the artist. His paintings are meant to bring piece for the onlooker and the painter. They should be a sublime representation of feeling

beyond thinking. Thus you could attain “Anand”, eternal bliss, spiritual joy. Then only you could reach “anyatra dharmad anyatra adharmat”,

an ex-pression from the Upanishads that was used by Nietzsche for his highly influental work “Jenseits von Gut und Böse” (Beyond good and evil).

Fine Art Magazine - Interview With Kenneth McClure & Juliann Giurelo

BIAGIO CIVALE

The Multipurpose Building, located in Anthony F. Veteran Park, at 11 Olympic Lane, Ardsley, NY houses program activities for Senior Citizens. 

Along the side of the building a rock with a plaque commemorates the lives lost in the September 11 attack on New York. Until the end of August 2010, one can also see, inside the corridors of the building, a painting by Biagio Gino Civale that stresses the smoke coming out of Ground Zero.
(See image)

This work is part of a mini one-man exhibition by this Westchester artist, including thirteen paintings, oils, woodcuts and serigraphs.  The variety of the subject matter is also reflected in the interest for decoration per se. (as per other image). 



Marines, human figures and human activities are also depicted in the other works. 

This exhibition is open to the public during the hours of operation of the building.  For confirmation of access please call 914 693 8985.  The Multipurpose Building is part of the Parks & Recreation Department, Office for the Aging.

________________________________________________________________________________________ Daniel Merriam | Biographie Plus d'informations Site du Château de Belcastel CHATEAU BELCASTEL | Bâtie voici 1000 ans sur un solide éperon rocheux, cette magnifique forteresse surplombe l'un des plus beaux villages de l'Aveyron. Né sur une chapelle du 9e siècle, le château de Belcastel vit son histoire façonnée au cours des siècles par des générations de chevaliers, de nobles et de hors-la-loi. Mais la fin du 16e siècle marqua l'arrêt brutal de cette ascension lorsque le château fut abandonné et laissé pour ruine. En 1973, le célèbre architecte Fernand Pouillon en découvrit les vestiges qu'il décida de restaurer afin de rendre au château sa gloire d'antan. Il se consacra huit ans à la restauration de l'édifice, dont il fit plus tard sa demeure. Bien que privé, le château est ouvert à la visite et le public invité à découvrir ce qui est à la fois un monument historique et une galerie d'art. L'idée de cette cohabitation unique est l'oeuvre d'Animazing Gallery à Soho, New York. Depuis 1984, en effet, Animazing organise avec succès des expositions dont la beauté ludique est un plaisir pour les sens. Vous verrez d'authentiques armures médiévales, les douves d'origine, de magnifiques expositions, de superbes points de vue. Vous admirerez au plus près l'extraordinaire travail de restauration. Vous découvrirez cette histoire et cette architecture de génie qui font de la visite du château de Belcastel une expérience remarquable et inoubliable.
