Stantec Window_ghost birds in winter

Stantec Window_ghost birds in winter Video Clips. Duration : 2.12 Mins.


ghost birds in winter is a site and season specific work that captures the beautiful and naturally organized chaos of birds in flight through jagged, snow-covered peaks. The white of the vinyl on the surface provides a stark contrast to the surrounding grayness of winter. In a nod to the shiny promise of spring, a gold disc hangs on the interior wall of the gallery space. The irreality of this vision is cut away to reveal the depth of the gallery space and the everyday reflections of the street in the windows. Susan Rowe Harrison makes ink drawings and site-specific installations of hand-cut vinyl for domestic, commercial, and alternative settings. She received an MA in Art Education from New York University, a BA in the History of Art from the University of California at Berkeley and studied Painting and Drawing at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She has exhibited her work internationally. For more information about the artist or her work visit: www.lunule.com The Stantec Window Gallery is located in Toronto at the Southwest corner of Spadina Avenue and Wellington Street, in the former entrance to the McGregor Sock Factory. The Gallery is open and accessible 24/7. Support of Stantec Architecture and Stantec Consulting is gratefully acknowledged.

Capturing the Sublime: Italian Drawings of the Renaissance and Baroque (Art Institute of Chicago) Overview

This handsome volume brings together an impressive array of scholars, who analyze an outstanding private collection of 171 Old Master drawings that date from the late fifteenth through the early nineteenth century. The collection vibrantly revealed here includes a wide variety of drawings—from sketches and figure drawings to copies after masters and preliminary studies for major compositions—and features the work of many important Italian artists, including Raphael, Andrea del Sarto, Baccio Bandinelli, Pontormo, Perino del Vaga, Gian Lorenzo Bernini, Salvator Rosa, Guercino, and Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, among many others.

Each work is reproduced and accompanied by complete documentation: physical description, provenance, bibliography, and exhibition history, as well as background information on the subjects captured in the drawings. Capturing the Sublime opens the beauty of these drawings to a broader public and provides important new attributions and scholarship.
