"If you took our tip to take in the deCordova New England Biennial, you likely spotted work of Jordan Seaberry, a painter-turned-community-organizer-turned-painter, who also serves as director of public policy at Providence's Nonviolence Institute. This weekend, and through July 27, you can catch Seaberry's first solo show, "We Speak Upon the Ashes," which brings together what the 29-year-old artist considers "two threads in the same practice." "His large-scale, imagistic mixed-media paintings address systemic injustice, family wounds, and moving forward," writes Globe contributor Cate McQuaid. "His process on canvas, like community organizing, is incremental, the outcome unpredictable." "We Speak Upon the Ashes" is on view at Steven Zevitas Gallery in the South End. Find more info here."

Discussion and Book Signing with Noted Art Consultant and Gallery Owner Paul Dorrell


Discussion and Book Signing with Noted Art Consultant and Gallery Owner Paul Dorrell
The Art League of Long Island is hosting a discussion and book signing of Paul Dorrell’s book Living the Artist’s Life:

Updated & Revised in the League’s Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery on Friday, November 16 at 7:00pm.  The event is open to the public and there is no fee to attend.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR and Book: Dorrell opened Leopold Gallery in 1991, and has been advancing artists’ careers on a national level ever since.  With clients such as Warner Brothers, the Mayo Clinic and H&R Block, Dorrell knows how to land the big deals, yet also how to win the trust of private collectors. He presents the information so that any artist can learn how to more easily structure a career that works. With sage advice and humorous anecdotes, Dorrell keeps you engaged through each chapter. Whether instructing on how to get your work into a gallery, or how to handle self-doubt, he knows his ground. He also tells the story of his gallery's initial failures and eventual successes. Regardless of your place in the arts, you will benefit from this work.

Praise for Living the Artist's Life: Update & Revised:
·      “The success of the Book hasn’t dimmed Dorrell’s drive to help undiscovered artists get the recognition he feels they deserve.  It’s also heavy on pragmatic advice from pricing and promoting one’s work to gaining acceptance by galleries.”  The Associated Press

·      “Dorrell’s book offers a frank and inspiring look at all aspects of the Artist’s Life, from the creative and emotional challenges to the nuts-and-bolts of the art business.”  Hartford Courant

·      “An entertaining and highly valuable guide for aspiring and working artists.” Murray Dessner, Painting Instructor and Critic, Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Philadelphia.


EVENT FORMAT:  Paul will discuss his Book, Living the Artist’s Life: Updated & Revised, and conduct an abbreviated version of his career workshop, accompanied by a handout with a Q&A session.  A book signing follows the presentation.  To learn more about Paul and his work, go to www.LEOPOLDgallery.com

The Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery is located at 107 East Deer Park Road in Dix Hills.  The gallery is open to the public Monday to Friday from 9 AM to 4 PM and weekends from 11 AM to 4 PM.  For more information call (631) 462-5400 or visit www.artleagueli.org.

Teruko Nimura - Spaces Between

Just Because 11.3  
 
  Teruko Nimura
Spaces Between
 
 
  Opening Reception: Sunday, July 10, 3-5pm
July 10 - August 7
 
 
  testsite | 502 West 33rd Street | Austin, Texas 78705  
   
  As an artist, Teruko Nimura is interested in the commonalities among human experiences and the ways that we use symbols and rituals to create collective memory. Spaces Between is an investigation of community, identity and spiritual practices through the lens of Asian and Asian-American culture. Popular icons like the laughing Buddha and Hello Kitty, or familiar traditions such as paper cranes and prayer flags become foundations that she uses to build upon with her own personal meaning. Large volumes of repetitive forms made by hand express time, labor, and consideration, emphasizing the sincerity of the objects, the beauty of shared efforts, and the importance of the individual as part of a greater whole.
Teruko Nimura received her B.F.A. in sculpture from San Francisco Art Institute, and her M.F.A. in Studio Art from the University of Texas at Austin. She works with the City of Austin's Dougherty Arts Center as an arts education administrator for youth and teens. Currently she is working on a book project with her older sister Tamiko Nimura examining their father's internment at Tule Lake during World War II and their process of confronting his death in the early 1980's.
 
   
  testsite, a project of Fluent~Collaborative, situates itself between an exhibition space, an open studio, a temporary residency program and a private home. Participants, usually a writer and a visual artist drawn from far afield or close to home, are invited to create parallel experimental projects though a shared conversation. testsite presents these projects as they are germinating, or at a stage of fruitful exploration and healthy doubt integrated within the corners, shelves, walls and spaces of an intimate space.
testsite, located at 502 West 33rd Street, is open to the public on Sundays from 2-5 pm and by appointment.
