LANDSCAPES


at Blue Star Contemporary Art Center
opening reception Thursday September 4, 6-9pm
runs through September 30

Leslie Raymond's new show LANDSCAPES puts the focus on the tried and true theme of the landscape. A primary genre in painting, landscapes generally depict views from nature. Here, Raymond presents a contemporary take on the subject. Broadening the vocabulary of the picture-plane through the use of the moving image, she incorporates video's inevitable language of time. This group of landscape images embodies artifacts of the passage of time (including lapsed time, movement through time and space, and time pressure) while simultaneously considering composition, color, shape and form. Each video loop composition in this series is displayed on its own flat-panel monitor, and is an edition of four.

Fortune Tour Report

Leslie is blogging about the Potter-Belmar Labs Fortune Tour.


The Theoretical Fixed Point in the Turbulent Aeviternity



Jason Jay Stevens presents his latest sculpture installation at Joan Grona Gallery, at the Blue Star Arts Complex, during San Antonio Contemporary Art Month.
The show opens with a reception on Thursday, June 26th, from 6 until 9pm, and runs through August 16th.
For "The Theoretical Fixed Point in the Turbulent Aeviternity (Come You Lost Atoms to Your Center Draw)," Stevens has combined work in fabric, wood, electronics, light, musical objects, and strange lightning bolts made from black shag carpet. The result might be a scene from an alternate dimension.
At one end of the gallery, a giant light box occasionally flashes the question, "Did you feel that?" referring to a mysterious event that makes the viewer question their sensitivity. Throughout the room, flying bed sheets imitate a firmament of angels, and flecks of gold outline otherwise invisible magnetic fields.

June 26 through August 16, 2008
Opening Reception: Thursday, June 26, 6-9pm
Joan Grona Gallery, 112 Blue Star, San Antonio, Texas 78204

Rooftop Party

Thank you to Emily Morrison and all our friends who attended our tour kick-off party on Ms. Morrison's rooftop.
With a gusty wind at our back, and city lights over our shoulders, 'twas a fitting way to say "Bon Voyage."

Thanks, Justin Parr, for the awesome pictures.
