Do I want to be a hero to my son? No. I would like to be a very real human being. That’s hard enough.

Robert Downey Jr

But I think Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang really got that thing where, if a movie reads really funny and then has some dramatic or violent or sinister stuff in it, you can’t forget that primarily it has to be even funnier than you read it or that other stuff doesn’t work.

Bau-Xi Gallery. Construct is a series of interventions on physical photographic prints by Chris Shepherd

Bau-Xi Gallery. Construct is a series of interventions on physical photographic prints. Through shredding, cutting, tearing, folding, crumpling and other processes photographic prints are rearranged and reconfigured into sculptural forms. These new objects are then re-photographed and the journey–from taking to making and back to taking–allows the viewer to re-evaluate the conventional language of photography. Memory, nostalgia, documentation and other established tropes of the medium become secondary to the form and object, opening a dialogue about what photograph is and means.

Chris Shepherd, Sky Crumpled, chromogenic print mounted to archival substrate, Edition of 7, 36 x 36 inches, $2600

Construct is presented as part of Capture 2016 Photography Festival.

CHRIS SHEPHERD CONSTRUCT. 3045 Granville Street, Vancouver: April 9 – 23, 2016. OPENING RECEPTION: Saturday, April 9 from 2 – 4 PM.

Enjoy your day, Yareah friends. Art is everywhere and up to you!

** Bau-Xi Gallery opened in 1965 in Vancouver, BC to create a showcase for the many emerging and established Canadian artists in need of a gallery on the West Coast. BAU-XI (boe she) translates to “great gift”. Bau-Xi Gallery remains the oldest contemporary gallery in Vancouver.

The Gallery has been a member of the Art Dealers Association of Canada since the early 1970s, and in Vancouver, a founding member of the South Granville Gallery Association. Over the years, the iconic Vancouver gallery has expanded to include Foster/White Gallery in Seattle, Bau-Xi Gallery in Toronto, and Bau-Xi Photo, which is one of the few strictly photography galleries in Toronto.

Since its inception, Bau-Xi Gallery has been recognized as one of Canada’s most highly regarded art galleries, with a reputation founded on adherence to the highest standards in quality of art and service to clients.

Vancouver exhibitions. West Coast Suite is a group of abstract canvases and several multi-media panels painted by Sylvia Tait over the past two years. The series demonstrates a sharp focus on metaphysics and construction of the Subject – that is, the invention of symbols, colour and surface sensuality derived from long periods of reflection by the artist on past experience and emotions. When realizing the Subject in paint, Tait employs the abstract language synonymous with her later career: a language characterized by large voids, tracks, concentricities, and strands of partitioned colour.

Vancouver exhibitions. Sylvia Tait, Howe Sound a /sleep a /flash, oil on canvas, 42 x 52 inches, $9000

A new interest in the dissecting the Subject into parts marks West Coast Suite. When describing the expressive structure of the body of work, Tait explains, “fragmenting, breaking up larger colour blocks and blowing them away is a metaphor as I see it.”

3045 Granville Street, Vancouver: April 9 – 23, 2016. OPENING RECEPTION: Saturday, April 9 from 2 – 4 PM. ARTIST IN ATTENDANCE.

Enjoy your day, Yareah friends. Art is everywhere and up to you!

Sunday Poetry with Gypsy Woman, Jenean C. Gilstrap. Today: Freedom

freedom

.

see beneath the surface of things

things bound in gossamer wings

beneath the surface of my heart

where your love starts

.

things not yet floated to the top

how will they know when to stop

broken free broken loose

your love did me seduce

.

things held back things held under

throwing all my fears asunder

all those things set free

letting me be me

.

things

suppressed

repressed

.

‘til

there

was

you

I don’t think more concentration is required for Robert De Niro to do what he does as for Jim Carrey to do what he does.

What is a motivating factor for Lionel Messi, Andres Iniesta and Gerard Piqué?

Lionel Messi, Andres Iniesta or Gerard Piqué? FC Barcelona, also known as Barcelona and Barça, is a professional football club, based in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.

FC Barcelona

Founded in 1899 by a group of Swiss, English and Catalan footballers led by Joan Gamper, it has known great moments and great players. Currently, Lionel Messi, Andres Iniesta and Gerard Piqué are some of its stars. What do you think about them? What is a motivating factor for them? Today, our quotes of the day are by Lionel Messi, Andres Iniesta and Gerard Piqué. Listen to them!

“Money is not a motivating factor. Money doesn’t thrill me or make me play better because there are benefits to being wealthy. I’m just happy with a ball at my feet. My motivation comes from playing the game I love. If I wasn’t paid to be a professional footballer I would willingly play for nothing.” Lionel Messi.

“Small players learn to be intuitive, to anticipate, to protect the ball. A guy who weighs 90 kilos doesn’t move like one who weighs 60. In the playground I always played against much bigger kids and I always wanted the ball. Without it, I feel lost.” Andres Iniesta.

“I’m not sorry for anything, I would do this (commenting on Real Madrid) one and a thousand times because I am like this. I want Madrid to lose, always, and this is the rivalry that always exists in Spain. I’m not going to ask for forgiveness.” Gerard Piqué.

Enjoy your day, Yareah friends. Art is everywhere and up to you!
