“No, I don’t want to be absolument moderne.” —Mauro De Giorgi

•

I struggle with modern definitions of success & ambition.  My desires of and contributions to this world do not often equate a standard path in a world driven by capitalism.  This isn’t a political statement about capitalism.  It a personal statement of awareness of both my talents and my shortcomings.  And, I’m okay with that.  Today’s AAAD Artist of the Day, Mauro De Giorgi, finds his conflict with modern unwavering faith in technology.  That conflict has driven him deeply into connection through process.  I appreciate the lessons taught & learned.  Thank you, Mauro.

Some days it is easier to see the bad and harder to see the good.  That doesn’t mean that the bad is more prevalent, it just means you may not be well equipped to see it that day.  Today’s AAAD Artist of the Day, Grace Summanen, uses the most common of found objects and supplies to create her own magic.  The result is hypnotic.

“Ever since Pong took the world by storm, video games have been a rapidly growing and evolving art form.  Earlier video games, limited by the technology of the time forced designers to think of new ways of rendering figures. However as the technology evolved so did the art form, with modern games limited only by the imagination of the developer.  8-Bit examines this evolution through the lens of visual art and how style, technology & art interact & influence one another, channeling inspiration from “retro” technology into art.” –from whitdelarts.com

Learn more from the Coburn Gallery at Ashland University in Ashland, OH!years of WINE and art

I eat a lot of food, so do you, it is how we survive.  I also see a lot of art; it is also how I survive, quit literally, since it is my occupation.  I rarely know much about an artist personally before I see their work, and I am intrigued how many of the artists behind the work I love end up being in their 40s or 50s or older.  It isn’t exclusively that, but it is far more common that would seem coincidental.  Maybe art, like wine, cheese & beef, ages well.  Show off your maturity with this next call.  Take a look…

In preparation for an international move in 2018, we are downsizing to a one bedroom apartment (approx. 450 sq. ft) from a 2 bedroom cabin (850 sq. ft.).  As we purge, I find that I make decisions on whether things stay or go based on their usefulness, simplicity & aesthetic, in that order.  The simple beauty of the work of today’s Artist of the Day, Megan Klim speaks to me.  It is a beautiful calm.
