MUSEUM EXHIBIT COMES TO HILTON SAN DIEGO BAYFRONT
Alexander Salazar Fine Art Partners with Hilton San Diego Bayfront to Exhibit the 9 feet x 7 feet paintings of Alison Van Pelt in celebration of
San Diego Art Month
San Diego Art Month
PAINTINGS OF IMPORTANT FEMALE ARTISTS
"The Women" -Paintings by Alison Van Pelt - brings museum status paintings to Downtown, San Diego. This collection was previously exhibited at the prestigious DAI. Founded in 1919, The Dayton Art Institute is a premier fine art museum located in Dayton, Ohio. In addition to exhibiting outstanding special exhibitions and impressive collections of art from throughout the world, the museum is renowned for education programming that includes an array of offerings for diverse audiences. Eva Hesse, Meret Oppenheim, Elaine DeKooning and Georgia O'Keefe are a few of the famous, and at times, rather infamous women that will be gracing the walls of the Promenade East entrance of Hilton San Diego Bayside. These oversized canvases measuring 9 feet x 7 feet honoring female artists are to be installed by Alexander Salazar Fine Art, commencing August 23, 2011 and on view through to October 15, 2011. It is an honor for Alexander Salazar Fine Art to bring the museum featured works of Alison Van Pelt to the city of San Diego during Art Month. Alison Van Pelt: The Women includes paintings of female artists who built their careers prior to the women's liberation movement. "I was interested in them as artists, but also as exceptional women," explains Van Pelt. "They were mavericks at a time when women were marginalized from the mainstream art world." All of the paintings are large scale -- 9 feet by 7 feet -- and primarily focus on the face of the subject. "I painted these women on a grand scale, somewhat as a form of idolatry," says Van Pelt. "I admire them now and have looked up to most of them since I was young. In terms of framing the face, there is subtle variation. I am trying to capture character. With some I went close in on the face like Helen Frankenthaler, while with others like Frida Kahlo, I pan out slightly, depending upon what I find to be essential. Kahlo's hair, ribbons, and the line of her neck were all a part of her character as were her facial features." Alison Van Pelt was born and raised in Los Angeles. She studied art at UCLA, Art Center, Otis Parsons and the Florence Academy of Art in Florence, Italy. Raised in the open-minded climate of 1970s Los Angeles, she has been influenced by such disparate sources as Agnes Martin, Robert Rauschenberg, Paramahansa Yogananda, Helmut Newton, Dan Millman, Yayoi Kusama and Hunter S. Thompson (just to name a few). The subjects of her paintings range from animals to prizefighters to celebrities, spiritual leaders, Native American warriors and heads of state. Utilizing found images of these figures, she begins the complex process of drawing and painting a classical portrait, then blurring and rebuilding the oil on the canvas, accumulating and disintegrating, until the result is a beautiful, purposely-degraded, mystical evocation of her subject. Her painstaking technique, with its exquisite light and shadow, layers upon layers of paint, ambiguous, yet meticulous, brush strokes, coalesced by her discipline and meditative touch, brings out the best in her subjects. The paintings are revealing yet mysterious; they are not idealized, but humanized. Van Pelts work has been exhibited in solo shows at The Fresno Art Museum and The Dayton Art Institute, as well as in galleries throughout the North America and Europe, and is represented in significant public collections, such as the Armand Hammer Museum, the Frederick R. Weisman Art Foundation, the Jumex Foundation in Mexico City, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, NASA, and the Studio Museum in Harlem. She currently lives and works in Santa Monica, CA. She is currently represented by Alexander Salazar Fine Art in San Diego.

Ai Kijima: Non Stop Everywhere
212GALLERY
Ai Kijima, Judgement, 2011 (27 x 31 inches, textile)
Ai Kijima: Non Stop Everywhere
1 August 2011 – 15 September 2011
212GALLERY is pleased to present the fabric collages of Ai Kijima.
Ai Kijima crafts patchwork extravaganzas out of American pop culture. Following a generation of artists like Arturo Herrera, who began his career by using Disney character imagery as the raw material for a kind of subversive formalism, Ai Kijima combines the traditional hand-working technique of quilting with postmodern appropriation.
The nine candy-colored cartoonscapes on display at 212Gallery will range in scale from 20 inches to over eight feet and will absorb the viewer into their layered narratives of fantasy and subliminal associations that muse on consumerism, sexuality, superficiality and moral decay.
Scouring flea markets, garage sales and thrift stores from Asia, Europe and North America, Kijima uses disparate materials of varying iconography - a Pink Floyd T-Shirt, a Kimono, childrens’ “Disney” bedding. Stitched together, Kijimas wall hangings juggle American pop culture icons with traditional Japanese symbols such as the chrysanthemum and koi.
Kijima’s process is painstaking. What begins as an intuitive layering of images is then ironed to a fusible web to which she adds backing; then the sewing machine. The images bounce off one another suggesting connecting narratives. Kijima uses color-matched shiny polyester thread to sew minute stitches on the fabrics. When seen from afar, the large works, composed of hundreds of fabric pieces, appear as two-dimensional paintings. The intense, seemingly cacophonous imagery morphs into highly choreographed quilted collages. The end result is an astonishing array of beauty and intensity.
Tokyo born, Brooklyn-based artist Ai Kijima received her M.F.A. in Fiber and Material Studies at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago, IL. She has been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions around the world and has permanent collections at the Mint Museum of Craft and Design, Charlotte, NC and the University of Chicago Comer Children's Hospital, Chicago, IL. She was recently awarded a residency at Miami, Florida’s Fountainhead Residency program.
