Artist Daniel Edwards – the man who also brought us Monument to Pro-Life: The Birth of Sean Preston, a sculpture of a nude Britney Spears giving birth – has now created ‘Suri’s Bronzed Baby Poop’ a tribute to Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ daughter. David Kesting, director of Brooklyn’s Capla Kesting Fine Art Gallery, said:…
Art News Blog: The Scream Returned Two years after the daylight robbery of Edvard Munch’s “The Scream”, the painting has been returned safely. In August 2004 “The Scream” and “Madonna” were stolen by masked gunmen from the Munch Museum in Norway. Different stories from the media have been linked to at Art News Blog. I…
The TAC payment seems to be finally sorted out and I awoke to an email from BoundlessGallery.com to tell me that I sold this painting!… good communication and information for everything, I woke up feeling better too. Thanks to all my well wishers, now that everything has been adjusted it is settling down a bit, I am hoping that all my work trying to build up my strength will assist in a speedier recovery.
I am going to be a bit of a tease here and I am not necessarily going to post everything here or on my website. So you will have to come to see them 😉 I am very excited about working larger scale again. I am drawing at a mile a minute in my visual diary and am picking canvasses to fit the pieces perfectly.
You know how I said I wasn’t going to do another show until i had build a bigger body of work?… Sometimes, when fate bashes down your door you just have to grab it with both hands.Northcote in September is home to the High Vibes Festival…. High St Northcote is also home to Vanguard Gallery, Who contacted me the other day to see if I was able to do a show from the 19th of September through to the 7th of October.
“They would rather have their own time and place to introduce their children to something like nudity.”… Rodin showed us the depredations of time and immortalized the nude as a part of all of us, rather than seeking to attain perfection, he showed us who we were and what we will become…. Nudity is the most natural state of all of us. it is often raw and exposed, it can reveal that we are often naked to the world and display the fragility of the human body.
ok, second attempt at this one, I’ve thought about it and I think I’ve got a better way forward. This is probably the trickiest of all the posts. mind you, I don’t know about the others until i try them. When I have a challenge or a goal I throw myself in wholeheartedly. When I…
I wrote a long post yesterday furthering the blog project, published it, then got freaked out and deleted it! some of you may have caught it on your feeds. 😳 The original reason I deleted it was because of the 3am panic fit and that fact that I don’t think I took it where it…
I thought it might be a good idea to turn around some negative thoughts and start working through my Quandry to identify what I really want and how best to get it. I will do this over a few posts and I’d like to invite everyone to bear with me, some of it will probably…
Art News Blog: Guggenheim in UAE with no Nudes?The interesting thing about such a grand museum for contemporary art is that there will be no nudes or works that are confrontational in any way, which includes works of a religious nature. I don’t think it’s a major issue, just different to museums in other countries.Usually I agree with Dion’s views at Art News Blog but this is a bit more personal as it were, a subject close to my heart…. A fear that seeing a nude figure might corrupt their faith probably means it is not strong enough to begin with.There is nothing wrong with the human body.
