And the winner is...

If you read this, then you know that I am a little shocked but not surprised that the boss of one of the jurors won the Bethesda Painting Award.

I know that the subordinate recused herself when discussing her boss, but you know how it looks no matter what... I'm actually beginning to think that it wasn't her fault that her boss applied to the prize while she was the juror, nor that two other co-workers also made it to the finals.

Bethesda Painting Awards Winners

Best in Show ($10,000): Barry Nemett - Stevenson, MD
Second Place ($2,000): Christine Gray - Alexandria, VA
Third Place ($1,000): Hedieh Ilchi - Rockville, MD

 
Congratulations to all the 2013 Finalists!

Joan Belmar – Takoma Park, MD Dennis Farber – Lutherville, MD Christine Gray – Alexandria, VA Hedieh Ilchi – Rockville, MD Barry Nemett - Stevenson, MD Cara Ober - Baltimore, MD Erin Raedeke - Gaithersburg, MD Bill Schmidt - Baltimore, MD

Grammar Police on the prowl

No, not Kriston "Il Capo" Capps (who's instead Hirshhorning), but the other grammar police... see what I mean hear here... cough, cough.

The Batman in The Batcave... brooding over Robin

Newest piece... heading to Glenn Aber Contemporary Art in NY for the Hamptons art fairs... the work has a 6.5 minute loop of appropriated vintage Batman TV show video focusing on The Batman's relationship with The Boy Wonder.

Update: Thanks to FedEex, this piece arrived to the gallery with a large footprint on the box (packed by FedEx) and busted glass and frame, so it couldn't be exhibited at the fair by my NY dealer... luckily, when I got it back from him, all that it needed was reframing... so it is safe.

New doors for the Library of Congress

In case you haven't noticed, all new doors on the east side of the Library of Congress Adams Building have been installed, with the new west side doors going in sometime in the next month. 

This is the culmination of a project that began 9 years ago where the Washington Glass School was tasked with replacing the doors in this most iconic of DC buildings. 

The project has been ignored by the DC area media (what else is new?) but the doors were fortunate enough to receive a fantastic 4-page spread in American Craft Magazine, discussing a one-in-a-lifetime project that represents not only some of the best of what the DMV art scene has to offer, but also the perfect balance of craft and architecture.

Red Handed at MFA

RED HANDED

A gallery installation experience by ROSEMARY FEIT COVEY 

June 21st, 2013 - June 5th, 2013

EXHIBITION LOCATION
Morton Fine Art (MFA)
1781 Florida Ave NW (at 18th & U Sts)
Washington, DC 20009

HOURS
Tuesday - Saturday 11am - 6pm
Sunday 12pm-5pm  

OPENING RECEPTION
Friday, June 21st from 6pm-8pm
The artist will be in attendance. 

About Red Handed:  

Rosemary Feit Covey's Red Handed is a complete gallery installation project which combines drawings printed on both hand and commercial printers.  The prints are then made into paintings, or left rough on cheap paper.  Covey's exploration in media and method has evolved and is comprised of wall-wrapped images and an all-encompassing floor piece - the major part of the installation - which forces the viewer to walk on the art.  The image is meant to have no beginning and no end.

Red Handed began as a set of drawings and printed columns during Covey's 2012 residency at Spiro Arts in Utah. The initial drawing appeared as a steam of conscience image. It was at first unclear why red hands kept appearing on her running figures, Covey feels it is connected to guilt.


Inspiration for Red Handed:


Referencing Dore, Modigliani and Picasso's Guernica - Red Handed raises issue of collective versus personal guilt.

"Where all are guilty, no one is; confessions of collective guilt are the best possible safeguard against the discovery of the culprit, and the very magnitude of the crime the best excuse for doing nothing."
 -Hannah Arendt

"For all survivors of suicide the question of guilt opens a maw that fills and envelopes adding to the pain, shock and sorrow. A murder has been committed where the murderer can not be blamed. The past becomes the framework for constant reexamination.  I had to ask myself - why did this image spring whole from my imagination?  I had to wait and allow my thoughts to unearth the past.  Guilt is the most personal of emotions and universal only when we take it on ourselves before we look at the rest." -Rosemary Feit Covey

About ROSEMARY FEIT COVEY:
Rosemary Feit Covey was born in Johannesburg, South Africa. In a career spanning three decades she has exhibited internationally and received countless awards. Covey's work is in numerous national and international museum and library collections.
Select collections include the Corcoran Gallery of Art; the New York Public Library Collection of Prints and Drawings; the Papyrus Institute, Cairo, Egypt; the National Library of Australia, Canberra; The National Museum of American History; Georgetown University Library Print Collection; Harvard University Library; and Princeton University Library.
Georgetown University Library currently houses 512 of her wood engravings in their permanent collection. She has an upcoming solo exhibition at the Evergreen Museum at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore in 2014.

Red Handed marks Covey's third annual exhibition at Morton Fine Art.

Opportunity for video artists

CALL FOR ENTRIES: EXPERIMENTAL MEDIA 2013 VIDEO SCREENING
JUROR: Jason Eppink, Associate Curator of Digital Media, Museum of the Moving Image, Astoria, New York
SCREENING DATES: Thursday, September 12, 2013, additional screening dates TBA
SCREENING LOCATION: The Phillips Collection, 1600 21st St, NW, Washington, DC 20009
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: Friday, May 31, 2013, 5pm

DOWNLOAD THE FULL CALL
SUBMIT ONLINE

Washington Project for the Arts announces an open call for video-based artworks to be screened at The Phillips Collection on September 12, 2013 with additional screenings dates and locations TBA. The screening series is part of Experimental Media 2013, a broader WPA program that includes the exhibition Cyber In Securities at Pepco Edison Place Gallery and a series of discussions bringing together artists, technologists, and policy experts to discuss privacy, security, and surveillance.

WPA is particularly interested in works that explore and examine privacy and surveillance in contemporary society, from satellite surveillance down to patents on human genes, from government watch lists to exhibitionism in the age of social networking, from anonymity in Internet culture to the growth in corporate micro-targeting. As moving images play an integral role in our contemporary surveillance regimes – whether government-run, corporate, or self-inflicted – video provides an ideal medium to delve into the changing nature of privacy and surveillance in our digital age.

One artist whose work is chosen for the screening will be selected to win the Kraft Prize for New Media, a $500 cash prize.

Submission Guidelines
The call is open to all artists regardless of geographic location. Artists may submit up to three works of single-channel video, with a maximum duration of 5 minutes per video, along with a CV. The selected videos will be screened sequentially in an auditorium to a seated audience. It is recommended that artists consider the viewing context when selecting work to submit.

Videos can be submitted as links to work on file sharing websites (Vimeo, YouTube, etc) or on a personal website. Videos may be password protected and a password supplied in the submission form.  The full length of each work submitted should be less than five minutes. Selected artists will be required to submit a file of the video to WPA so it may be included in the screening.

The final submission deadline is Friday, May 31, 2013 at 5pm. Work may be submitted through WPA’s website. 

Artists with questions regarding the call or who prefer to submit their work via mail should contact Blair Murphy, WPA Program Director, at 202-234-7103 x 1 or bmurphy@wpadc.org. For more information, download the full call.

About the Juror
Jason Eppink curates events and exhibitions, creates interactive experiences, and throws raging art parties as the Associate Curator of Digital Media at Museum of the Moving Image in New York City. When he’s not doing that, Eppink teaches digital art at New York University and makes mischief in public space and online. GOOD Magazine proclaimed him one of the top 100 most important, exciting, and innovative people making our world better and changing the way we live.

Call for Manuscripts and Portfolio Proposals

From the VASA Journal on Images and Culture:

The advent of the Internet and digitization of the image has brought about what appears to be a debatable democratization of the medium of photography. The 'WWW' has expanded what images we experience and the way we experience them. It changed the avenues for the embodiment, dissemination and consumption of images, opening new channels for expression, participation and exchange.

The form and function of more traditional photography gatekeepers such as curators, book editors and publishers, museums and galleries, has been challenged by websites/galleries, blogs, and online publications as open platforms. As a result a serious viewer is now required to look harder and broader through the maze of images online.

1. The editors of VJIC are accepting proposals manuscript, for Issue #4 (September 2013) that address, but is not limited to, the following topics:


- The challenge to traditional institutions – what role for galleries and museums;
- The democratization of the medium of photography: implications for practice and access;
- The movement of marginalized or ghettoized voices towards visibility;
- Curators of / in the Internet era;
- Bloggers – voice or chaos;
- Erik Kessels – case study;
- Online communities – case studies: e.g. Flickr, Instagram, FlakPhoto;
- Snapshot as Art;
- Image search engines as gatekeepers; (ie: Taryn Simon and Aaron Swartz 'Image Atlas')

For proposal information refer to VJIC submissions or email issue editors, please include ' Your name + Issue #4 theme issue proposal manuscript' [see bellow].

2. The editors of VJIC are accepting Portfolio proposals for Issue #4 (to be published September 2013) that are:

- inspired by the Internet (e.g. found photography, gifs, video, online archives, Internet cameras, Google and other search engines, social media, etc.)
or
- created to be exhibited exclusively on the Internet

The proposal has to include:

- a 100 word description of the project
- a link to where it is accessible online (a blog, website, social media, tumblr, flickr etc.). Do not send attachments (no pdfs or jpegs).
- address on the email 'Subject' line 'Issue #4 PORTFOLIO PROPOSAL' followed by your name

Send the proposal to the issue editors:

GWU's Resident Artist/Scholar Program

The George Washington University Resident Artist/Scholar Program
September 1, 2013 - June 30, 2014, Washington, DC
 
Columbian College of Arts and Sciences at The George Washington University (GW) offers three Arts Fellowships available to support mid-career artists and/or scholars who live in the Washington, DC region.  The residencies will take place from September 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014.  GW recognizes that the Washington, DC metropolitan area is home to many accomplished artists and scholars; therefore, through the GW Resident Artist/Scholar Program GW will celebrate and support the three top proposals.  Fields may include, but are not limited to the following: visual arts, performance art, musical composition or performance, filmmaking, creative writing, theatre, dance, and scholars in the arts.

There will be no predetermined concept or theme in which applicants must adhere, nor will it be necessary that individual applicant’s creative and research projects intersect with other proposals in order to be accepted; instead, each proposal will be judged on its own merit.  The primary goal is to foster an interdisciplinary approach to creative research and scholarship over an intensive ten-month perioda physical and intellectual space for the development of meaningful artistic and scholarly linkages across the arts and other disciplines, both on and off campus.  The GW Resident Artists and Scholars will not be required to teach any courses; instead, they will be expected to produce new work and/or scholarship, present at least one public lecture, regularly interact with graduate and undergraduate students, and fully participate in activities with full-time GW faculty in the Incubator Studio Fellowship Program. 

The GW Resident Artists and Scholars will be provided with a generous stipend of $10,000.00 ($1,000.00 per month from September 2013 to June 2014), a modest studio/office, as well as a creative project/research fund (up to $5,000.00) to cover expenses directly related to the realization of the work done while in residence.  As an incentive to involve GW students in the research projects by the artists and scholars in residence, GW will provide one studio/research assistant per artist or scholar during the fall and spring semesters to be hired through the federal work/study program.  The GW Resident Artists and Scholars are expected to be in residence at GW for a minimum of 10 hours a week during the term of the fellowship.

The selection criteria will take into account the strength of the proposal, past achievements as demonstrated through work samples and CV/Resume, and the potential impact the creative project/research would have on the GW community.  The selection committee will only review materials that correspond to the guidelines below that are submitted through the online process.  Deadline for receipt of application materials for the Resident Artist/Scholar Fellowships is June 28, 2013.    

To apply please go to the following link: http://go.gwu.edu/resart

The "wake" effect

If you read this blog with any regular emphasis, then you know that in the past, many times I have discussed the worldwide art fairs and the reason why contemporary artists need to be in them and why there are so many positive things that come out of them - other than sales - even after the fair is over.

As a sailor, I compare it to the wake that a ship leaves on the ocean... a wake that most landlubbers don't realize is sometimes noticeable for hundreds of miles after the ship has passed through... if your sensors are good enough.

She first saw my work at the Aqua Art Fair in Miami Beach last December... then again at the Scope Art Fair in New York City, and most recently at the Affordable Art Fair in New York. For three fairs in a row she visited, talked and discussed the work, usually offering hard and intelligent constructive criticism.

The end result? The wake effect from those fairs?

I am proud to announce that I am now represented by Glenn Aber Contemporary in New York. They will next be taking my work to ArtHamptons.

I wonder what the wake effect from that fair will be?
