Distinct Daily produces a documentary series showcasing contemporary artists and their sources of inspiration, available exclusively in their iOS app. In this short film, director Alex Amoling discusses Robbins' creative process in an interview that the artist describes as her most personal yet. 

This exhibition at Davidson College features a diverse range of Williams' work spanning 2007 to present, including large-scale paintings and smaller drawings. The show is accompanied by a 44-page catalog with an essay by Peter Frank and an interview between Kent Williams and Lia Newman. 

From the exhibition catalog:

There are precedents for such contrasting formal languages occurring within a single painting (or, as in the case of Gerhard Richter, occurring within a single oeuvre).. Larry Rivers’ proto-pop painterliness zoomed in and out of focus and scattered his subjects around the compositions they occupy. Salvador Dalí and Yves Tanguy, among other surrealists, blurred the line between the optically credible and the physically impossible. Gustav Klimt enveloped his sensuous, stylized figures in swaths and curtains of pattern. Victorian academicians, British and American, as diverse as John Singer Sargent, James McNeill Whistler, and Frederick Lord Leighton, combined emphatically hyper-realistic passages – faces and details of clothing, for instance – with much more painterly areas surrounding them. The later mural-size paintings of J. M W. Turner (in uncanny anticipation of photography’s liberating effect on painting) deposited heroic figures in the midst of all-but- disintegrated land- and seascapes. Williams acknowledges these influences to various degrees.

Williams is a worthy inheritor of these august forerunners, technically gifted and spiritually motivated, as they were, by the acts of painting and drawing themselves. He participates in a dynamic, polemical, historically self-conscious resuscitation of representational painting currently occurring throughout the United States, and nowhere more than in southern California, where Williams currently lives and works. Painters like Williams are clearly attached to a tradition but compelled to advance it by embracing contrary traditions – abstraction, surrealism, naturalism – and by inventing a cohesive, if deliberately unstable, whole. Unstable neither in its actual imagery nor in its painterly practice, Kent Williams’ art distinguishes itself for its fully reasoned method and its particular, often unique, characteristics. But it is unstable – thrillingly, potently unstable – in its acceptance of contradictory visual languages and its ability to orchestrate those languages into a pictorially and discursively vibrant way of painting the human condition.

Micah Ganske is featured in a video by Distinct Daily, a company that produces a documentary series showcasing contemporary artists and their sources of inspiration. Works from his most recent solo show with the gallery, The Future is Always Tomorrow, are featured with the artist in his studio. 

In this Question & Answer piece, Fersini discusses topics including how her practice continues to address the fundamental question of what it means to create pictures in an increasingly image-saturated world, what she does when she's not making art, and what she would be doing if she wasn't an artist (teaser: "A hermit that meditates all day… or a good plastic surgeon.")

VernissageTV covers exhibitions and events in the fields of contemporary art, design, and architecture. Stefania Fersini's opening reception is highlighted in Season 21 of Art TV, their bi-yearly webseries, appearing alongside interviews with Elizabeth Diller (one of the architects behind The Broad) and Kazumi Nakamura at Blum & Poe.

The art world continues its unprecedented expansion in 2015, with bigger fairs, higher sales, and more exciting talent. But despite the abundance of new ways to show, sell, and discover art, galleries remain at the epicenter of this constantly changing scene. ARTINFO took a look at galleries across six continents and 36 countries, rounding up the top 500 in the world. The list was published in a special summer issue of Modern Painters and also online. 

Several paintings and sculptures from Eley's PRISM series are on view in the hyperrealism expo at the Daejeon Museum of Art. This group exhibition brings together 80 works by 16 international artists and showcases the diverse ways in which contemporary artists make use of hyperrealism. 

Pedro Vélez, a mixed-media artist who splits his time between San Juan and the Bushwick neighborhood of Brooklyn in New York, recently exhibited a collaborative show, “Surrender Flags and Ransom Notes,” in Caguas, about 20 minutes inland from San Juan.

The pieces were a commentary on the control the ratings companies have exerted over Puerto Rico as well what he calls the “John Paulson Puerto Ricans” — high-net-worth Americans who were wooed by generous tax exemptions to invest in Puerto Rico. Paulson is a billionaire New York hedge fund manager who made out handily betting against subprime mortgages in 2007 and has predicted Puerto Rico will become “the Singapore of the Caribbean.”

“We give up — this is it,” Vélez said, explaining a surrender flag hanging from a mast of carved pine. “It also comes from this idea that protests don’t really do much. We’re going to lose. This is going to be owned by private organizations and hedge fund managers who don’t have any interest in the island.”

“I was in a very pessimistic state of mind,” he added.

His concerns are warranted. In late July the Puerto Rico Department of Commerce and Economic Development announced that Paulson’s hedge fund is investing $20 million to turn the San Juan Beach Hotel into “an ultraluxury boutique hotel.” A press release for the project described the investment as one that “adds momentum to Puerto Rico’s development efforts."

The editors of artspace include Pedro Vélez's Twitter Said (2013) as one of the 6 artworks to invest in this March. 

From the article:

The artist Pedro Vélez is a rare breed in the art world: an accomplished critic who actually puts his money where his mouth is, creating the kinds of blistering, society-critiquing artworks that he finds lacking in the artistic discourse. Last year Vélez was featured in the Whitney Biennial, and a version of this piece was a prominent part of his display (which referred to the path that a review he wrote, “White Privilege in Criticism,” took through social media over the course of a year in which NATO protests, outrage over the Trayvon Martin verdict, and other political flashpoints occurred.) The text at the bottom echoes the related Whitney flyer, which asked: “The #Art Press, have you ever seen them in the picket line?"

Michael Slenske from Blouin Artinfo writes about Colin Chillag's newest Show Anti-realism discussing his process.

Like a writer who knows what’s best left unsaid, Colin Chillag understands what’s best left unpainted. Negative space eloquently informs his work, providing contrast to the hyperrealism of the images. And although he might say his subjects are ordinary people captured in mundane scenes, his carefully thought-out works exhibit a haunting sense of verisimilitude.

Jeffrey Carlson, Editor of Fine Art Today, writes: "Colin Chillag's paintings are unique in giving viewers a taste of the precise realism of which the artist is capable, while simultaneously disrupting the mood of perfection that a completed hyper-realistic painting achieves."

"When we think about the future, and the grand things that science and technology will make possible, our visions are naturally influenced by popular culture.  We envision rogue A.I. taking over the world, machines subjugating their human creators, or more optimistically, a world so fantastical and foreign as to feel like fantasy.  Like most polarizing subjects, people tend to gravitate to extreme points of view without bothering to consider the more mundane, though highly likely, possibilities.  The truth is we always over-estimate how the larger aspects and infrastructure of future societies will change while completely under-estimating the smaller conveniences and technologies that affect and evolve our day to day interactions.  The paintings and sculptures I'll be working on over the next few months are about creating experiences for viewers which invite them to rethink what they envision for the future."

– Micah Ganske
