Posner Fine Art: Sandra Vlock shows her architectural design works.

Sandra Vlock

Sandra Vlock's practice was born when the artist acquired two 58 inch antique mooring buoys with the intent to repurpose them as steel sphere fire pits. These buoys serve as source material for her dramatic and engaging fire sculptures. Her screens, gates, lanterns and sculptures serve as an extension of her initial encounter with these materials.

Posner Fine Art - Beverly Fishman

OCTOBER 2012 Chroma Dose  Shown Above: Pill Spill (detail) Installation at the Detroit Institute of Art Read more about Beverly Fishman's installation in the Huffington Post Also Available:   Acid Kandyland #2 Acrylic and Enamel on Stainless Steel 84" x 26" Shown to the Right:    Dividose: E.X.P. Acrylic and Enamel on Stainless Steel 58" x 84" (three panels) Beverly Fishman In a new series of visually provocative abstractions, Beverly Fishman explores the fast evolving relationship between our bodies and contemporary technology. Her vibrantly colored paintings and sculptures have their genesis in diverse patterns and iconography drawn from scientific imaging systems and pharmaceutical packaging. By manipulating and layering these representational traces of the body into dense, psychedelic compositions, Fishman raises questions about the vulnerability of human identity in an in an increasingly digitized and electronically-mediated world. Beverly Fishman's paintings are configurations of horizontal panels of polished stainless steel, each containing dense visual fields woven from neural imagery, sound waves, EEG graphs and other technological data. These accumulate into optically dazzling moiré patterns that are interrupted by images of drug capsules and molecular symbols. Painted in enamel on mirrored metal, the dynamic surfaces mingle with the reflections of spectators in the surrounding environment, allowing us to view our own fractured image in the multiple panels. The "Dividose" paintings, so named for multi-tab pills designed for user-controlled dosages, evoke what art historians and imaging theorist Barbara Maria Stafford has called "a frenzied inscape...that captures both the effect and the seduction of such mood-altering substances. These works are what they represent: stimulants." Fishman's Pill Spill, currently on display at the Detroit Institute of Art is an installation of unique glass capsule forms that take their cue from mood-altering drugs. Like her paintings, each of the hand blown elements juxtapose multiple patterns, surfaces, and hues into an arresting spectacle. In 2011, Pill Spill first took form as an installation of 120 capsules in the Toledo Museum of Art, installed in dialogue with the architecture of the museum's Glass Pavilion. The capsules are configured to underscore the viewer's personal relationship to pharmaceuticals. These tantalizing yet paradoxical medications -- glass capsules that won't dissolve -- remind us that medicine can be both a cure and a poison.   Beverly Fishman has exhibited internationally and has garnered numerous honors including fellowships from the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation, Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Arts. Last year she received the Hassam, Speicher, Betts, and Symons Purchase Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Her work is in many public collections including the Columbus Museum of Art, Detroit Art Institute of Arts, Miami Art Museum, Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art, and Toledo Museum of Art.  Posner Fine Art is always available to assist you with your fine art and accessory needs.

Lori Hyland - Posner Fine Art

SEPT 2012 A Hyland Universe Shown Above: Midsummer Garden oil on canvas 48" x 60" Also Available: Milky Way oil on canvas 72" x 90" Galaxy oil on canvas 48" x 60" Shown to the Right:    Divine Matrix oil on canvas 64" x 89" Lori Hyland Lori Hyland is an abstract painter who has lived her entire life in Los Angeles. She took her undergraduate degree at the University of Southern California and then attended Pratt Institute of Visuals Arts in New York. Additionally she studied with Koho Sensei in traditional Japanese Sumi-e and Tom Wudi. Lori's work has been shown in numerous galleries in Europe and the United States. The creative process for Hyland is deeply intuitive. She has been fascinated and guided in painting by two important concepts; visual meaning and transformation with every canvas bringing new and unexpected relationships. In each painting, Lori uses the entire visible color spectrum with its vast palette as found in nature's deserts and gray skies. Hyland may start out with a very particular vision or meaning but other forces carry her to an altogether different place. It is this element that draws her into abstract art rather than representational. Abstract painting offers Hyland individual meaning and endless fascination with the revelations that take place. Much of her work is constructed by small grids of color placed closely together to retract colors. By themselves, they have little meaning, but placed in the whole reveal several levels of symbolism leading to a meaningful statement. Her work becomes a matter of discovery and investigation; creation as well as destruction through new forms taking place each moment.   When Lori first started painting, she was led in her work by spirituality, especially influenced by her travels to Gothic Cathedrals in France. Other influences include the environment and the earth. In recent years, her work has a new influence -- music.  Posner Fine Art is always available to assist you with your fine art and accessory needs. Sincerely, Wendy Posner  info@posnerfineart.com
