I consider light to be a material I work with much like paint is a material I work with. It is the way paint plays with light that is my focus. I use black paint. Black absorbs the entire spectrum of visible light, leaving the oil in the paint to reflect the light in the room. You might wonder if this is all the work is about and you'd be right to wonder. Light is just one element and a starting point" - James Austin Murray. Read more Click here for images from the show "Mystery of Light" installation view Installation view II Installation view III  For more information & images, contact: Lyons Wier Gallery 542 West 24th Street, New York, NY 10011 Tel: +1 212 242 6220 / gallery@lyonswiergallery.com  www.lyonswiergallery.com Gallery Hours: Tues - Sat, 11am - 6pm #fineartmagazine

SCOPE Art Show

Basel, Switzerland: Connected by dedicated SCOPE TRAMS to the main fair, SCOPE Art Show returns to its pioneering location in Klybeckquai, the new art and culture center of Basel. A wellspring of cultural development for Basel Stadt, SCOPE was the first in what is now a series of extraordinary happenings centered on the New Arts District on the Rhine. In proximity to SCOPE Basel's 4,000m² pavilion, the Tinguely Museum will present Jean Tinguely's brilliant musical performance "Cyclope" along with several restaurants, bars, and clubs orchestrating "pop-ups" along the once-industrial riverfront. SCOPE is delighted to be at the center of this focused cultural moment in Basel. SCOPE Basel will welcome 75 International Exhibitors alongside 20 Breeder Program Galleries, offering a view of the contemporary art market available nowhere else. Exhibitors hail from four continents and over twenty countries including China, Mexico, Japan, Korea, Brazil, Italy, Iran, Russia, Turkey, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Norway, Switzerland, Germany, UK, Spain, and Canada. SCOPE Basel opens to VIPs and Press on Tuesday, June 17, with its Platinum First View benefit from 12pm - 4pm; the fair will run June 18-22, 2014. Accessible by dedicated SCOPE tram, SCOPE Basel is connected to the Messaplatz and Claraplatz. Additionally, visitors may reach the fair by a scenic walking route along the Rhine, which will feature SCOPE Basel information points for convenience.  Long-established as the original incubator for emerging work, SCOPE's Breeder Program celebrates its 14th year of introducing new galleries to the contemporary market. A remarkable opportunity for exposure, Breeder Program alumni include: Peres Projects, John Connelly Presents, Galeria Enrique Guerrero, Daniel Reich Gallery, Bischoff Weiss, INVISIBLE-EXPORTS, SEVENTEEN, ROKEBY, Taxter Spengemann, Magical Artroom and Spinello Projects, among other notable galleries.
