SANTA MARIA, Calif. – Allan Hancock College features works by artist Rafael Perea De La Cabada. The show is called “Tiempo Sin Palabras/Time Without Words”.

The exhibition features works of ceramics, paintings and more.

“Rafael has a number of works of his paintings and drawings. He has prints which include woodcuts, intaglios, he has beautiful sculptural pieces and installations which we have in the hall and also pieces under glass here, some of his ceramic pieces. And they really express a beautiful emotion and his passion not just for culture, but for global discourse. And you can see some of the wonderful techniques of abstraction and expression that he used in his works. It really is a wonderful exhibition,” said Jill Thayer, acting director of the Allan Hancock College gallery.

Perea says it means a lot to see his works on display for people to enjoy.

“You present your background and your background to the student population, to people who are thinking about a career, who are thinking about their own background. And I think it’s important to be able to see what someone has been doing for many years. And in this case, I chose the path of the arts. I chose to do this and it started when I was 14, for example. I’ve been doing this for a long time, and I love the arts and I love them. Yes, the ability to express our times through the visual world,” said artist Rafael Perea De La Cabada.

Allan Hancock College also thinks it’s good for students to feel inspired by the art exhibit.

“I’m also an art history teacher, so I was able to bring my class. The other teachers have, you know, they bring their classes too. And so it’s really wonderful to talk about contemporary discourse, what’s happening in the art world, what’s happening in our culture and how that reflects their everyday world. And it was really a great experience to hear feedback from the students on how art affects them. So it’s really wonderful, said Jill Thayer.

The art exhibition runs until December 15 at the Ann Foxworhty Galley.

“You can see the work online. You can see the work you value in a visual image, but it’s not the same as being in front of a room. It’s not the same as me talking to you face to face. So I think it’s important that people visit the exhibition and support the gallery and the college,” said Rafael Perea De La Cabada.

ISLAMABAD, Nov 1 (UrduPoint/Pakistan Point News – Nov 1, 2022): Satrang Art Gallery (SAG) and Serene Arts will feature the works of four female artists in an exhibition titled “The Spark” to be held on Wednesday. (02 November).

The group exhibition will feature the works of Aimen Manzoor, Amna Rahman, Khadijah Rehman and Zara Asgher under the banner of cultural diplomacy to promote art and artisans.

Sharing her views with APP, SAG curator Zara Khan said: “These artists used a variety of mediums including gouache and gold leaf on paper, printmaking and oil on canvas to create images that combine both figurative art and symbolism to visualize their messages. She added that the exhibit will explore the invisible energetic force and vigorous response of individuals who create a connection not only with others but also with their surroundings.

She said to take the form of attraction, comfort and companionship, sometimes a positive instinct or intuition, sometimes called an inherent sixth sense. It can also be felt as a negative reaction, a feeling of apprehension or discomfort, and a feeling of anxiety in response, the shed added.

Each of these artists has interpreted this connection in a way that suits their larger investigations of daily life and social interactions in private and public spaces, she added.

Speaking of artists, she was of the opinion that Aimen Manzoor explored in his paintings the relationship between the ordinary and the seemingly banal.

The compositions and vivid colors of his paintings distorted these otherwise simplistic or mundane scenes, drawing attention to his subjects engaged in habitual and repetitive activities. In some paintings, she set up scenes to be occupied by individuals who were missing from the frame, Zara Khan said.

About Khadijah Rehman, she said the artist explored the familiar, often family or fictional, delicate moments captured in her intricate paintings. She borrowed family photographs which she embellished with vivid patterns, minute detail, and the traditions of Persian and Mughal miniatures.

Zara Khan further stated that both Amna Rahman and Zara Asgher emphasized the careful navigation of the body, primarily the female body, within a male-centric patriarchal society.

Amna’s figures, painted in spaces she considers “safe”, are completely at ease, engaged in conversations and at ease with themselves and their surroundings.

Zara’s work explores the gendered quality of her surroundings, particularly highlighting how public spaces in Pakistan are heavily occupied by male bodies. Her drawings of repetitive patterns of bodies highlight the hierarchical structures she saw.

The works come together to create a series of encounters that the viewer can experience, interpret and absorb.

October 10—Millions of viewers listened to “Better Call Saul” during its broadcast.

In the episodes, Albuquerque’s locations were featured – but so was the art of the locals.

Miles Toland had his “Flippin’ Jimmy” artwork hung in the law office of Jimmy McGill, played by Bob Odenkirk.

The former Santa Fe resident donated the piece for a giveaway to benefit the nonprofit Gravity Water, whose mission is to turn rain into clean drinking water for needy schools around the world. .

“I was commissioned to paint ‘Flippin’ Jimmy’ specifically for the second season of ‘Better Call Saul’,” Toland said in a statement. “The painting captures a figure in the air whose human form has dissolved into a pattern of circles known as the ‘flower of life’, leaving behind hollow shells of shoes and clothing. Having been raised in the New -Mexico, it was really meaningful to contribute to such an iconic show.”

Toland has traveled the world creating street art in places like Paris, Switzerland, Art Basel Miami, Mexico and Canada. His painting “Flippin’ Jimmy” was re-adapted from his 2015 “Geometric Abductions” mural series in Pune, India.

“If someone had told me that my most well-known artwork would be a commission and adaptation of my street art series in India, I wouldn’t have believed it,” Toland said with a laugh. “When I learned more about ‘Better Call Saul’ character, Jimmy McGill, I immediately understood why the art resonated – Jimmy starts staging tumbles and slides to make a quick buck .”

Danny Wright, founder of Gravity Water, said the nonprofit organization was honored when Toland contacted them about the donation to support their mission.

“We are thrilled to be able to work with the incredible community surrounding Miles Toland and ‘Better Call Saul’, creating a brighter future for children around the world by bringing clean water to their schools.”

Wright says that every $8 donation helps one child get access to clean water through Gravity Water. For the contest, $1 equals one entry. The deadline for donations is 8 p.m. on November 11.

Giveaway details can be found at gravitywater.betterworld.org.

October is Dyslexia Awareness Month and to celebrate, the Lufkin Independent School District is presenting its Dyslexia Showcase at the Museum of East Texas.

What is the “Dyslexia Showcase”?

Dyslexic students in the Lufkin District will have artwork on display at the Museum of East Texas this Sunday (10/2) from 2-4 p.m. You will see sculptures, drawings and paintings by students of all ages. Following the showcase, the items will be auctioned off online with proceeds benefiting the Alys Ray Dyslexia Achievement Scholarship.

Over 100 items representing many amazing students who are talented in different ways are on display at the Museum of East Texas, and these same exhibits are also auctioned off with bids starting at $1, with $1 increments. Of course, you are encouraged to bid with your heart as money from the Alys Ray Dyslexia Achievement Scholarship Fund (501c3) will be used for senior graduates.

All art auction contributions (winning bids and monetary donations) are tax deductible.

What is dyslexia?

The Lufkin Independent School District Dyslexia/Literacy Team is comprised of literacy interventionists and dyslexia therapists who support K-12 students on their literacy journey. Research over the past few years has proven that dyslexia is not at all a reflection of a person’s intelligence level or ability. However, this condition presents challenges in learning and in daily activities.

There are many dyslexia programs in East Texas school districts. These programs and their staff have done an excellent job of helping students overcome these challenges and instilling confidence in these young people.
