Yumiko Kayukawa - 0 views

  •  
    Yumiko Kayukawa was born in the small town of Naie in Hokkaido, Japan. The panoramic beauty of her surroundings and feelings of communication with the native animals inspired her to paint the things around her. As a teenager she also fell in love "with the energy and giddiness" of American pop-culture through her exposure to rock n' roll, film, and fashion. By the age of 16, she had debuted into the art world with a comic-book (Manga) feature. After graduating from Art school, she continued to paint, but struggled with truly expressing herself in her art. Fortunately, this frustration took a dramatic turn during a visit to Seattle where Yumi painted a picture at the request of an American friend. In comic-book style, two girls sit entwined atop a mushroom, Japanese symbols and American pop art styles melding together in lively color and bold lines. Yumi now realized her art persona - sagacious Japanese tradition in synergy with the jubilant irreverence of American pop culture. What does she see for her future as an artist? "I'd rather my paintings hang next to rock star pin-ups than on museum walls. Ultimately I want to connect with people all over the world on that level", she says with a smile. When we look at her work, it's obviously just a matter of time.

The Meaning of Art - Chinese Art Introduction by Herbert Read - 1 views

  • The history of Chinese art is more consistent, and even more persistent, than the art of Egypt. It is, however, something more than national. It begins about the thirtieth century B.C. and continues, with periods of darkness and uncertainty, right down to the present century. No other country in the world can display such a wealth of artistic activity, and no other country, all things considered, has anything to equal the highest attainments of this art.
  • Chinese technique is amazingly simple: it involves the knowledge of the use of one brush and one color—but that brush used with such delicacy and that color exploited with such subtlety, that only years of arduous training can produce anything approaching mastery. As is well known, the Chinese normally write with a brush, and a brush is as familiar to them as a pen or pencil is to us. The first fact to realize about Chinese painting is that it is an extension of Chinese handwriting. The whole quality of beauty, for the Chinese, can inhere in a beautifully written character. And if a man can write well, it follows that he can paint well. All Chinese painting of the classical periods is linear, and the lines which constitute its essential form are judged, appreciated and enjoyed, as written lines.
  • Throughout its history, then, Chinese art conceives nature as animated by an immanent force, and the object of the artists is to put themselves in communion with this force, and then to convey its quality to the spectator.

  • the most distinctive variations are due to religious influences, to Buddhism and Confucianism. No doubt, as always, these religions gave a tremendous impetus to artistic activities of all kinds. But they also did a lot of harm – Buddhism by its insistence on a dogmatic symbolism, always a bad element in art; and Confucianism by its doctrine of ancestor worship, which was interpreted in art as crude traditionalism, requiring the strict imitation of ancestral art. But in spite of these limitations, perhaps in some sense because of them, Chinese art maintains its vitality, reaching its highest development in the Song period, a period which corresponds roughly in time, and even more strikingly in mannerism, with the early Gothic period in Europe.

    The statement "Collecting Art: Everyone's at it, why aren't you?" on the cover caught my attention first then it's the news that artreview offers free, on-line magazine for your pleasure, at least for the first 6 months (I don't even know what that means!).

Forum : Art Face Off :: View topic - Pricing Your Art - 0 views

  • In general, I recommend artists price their work as low as they can possibly bear to start out. Remember, it is more important to cultivate on-going relationships with dealers and consultants than to sell one piece.
  • Ultimately, it is better for the work to be out there than sitting in your studio. I believe art is a process, a verb, not a noun. And, part of the process necessitates that the work be exhibited, purchased and appreciated by others.
  • Remember, this is just a starting point. If you are fortunate enough to have a gallery representative, they should work with you in helping to determine a realistic price for you work. Ultimately, your prices will establish themselves as you start showing your work and getting a reaction.

  • Medium, size, complexity, cost of production and previous sales history, also play important roles in determining the final sales price. But the bottom line could just as easily be determined by how much an artist is attached to a particular piece.
  • an increase in price is only justified when this balance shifts…either the demand increases, or the supply decreases.
  • the work you present publicly should all be of the highest caliber and of equal value. If you are particularly attached to a particular piece and want to price it twice as much as the other work in the show, it is better to just mark the piece sold and keep it for yourself until your work increases in value to a point where the price you want is justified.
  • * What is the number and quality of the venue of group and solo exhibitions? * Are the shows all local or spread out nationally or even internationally? * Are there any museum shows? * Does the artist have any critical published reviews? * What kinds of publications and who are the writers? * Have any catalogs been done in conjunction with any of the shows? * What is the artists sales history? * Is there a long list of collectors? * Are the collectors mainly private collectors, or are there public institutions listed? * Any permanent museum collections?

Wall Art: Three Inspiring Artists - 1 views

  • They say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder and that statement stands true. Art, one of the most basic home accessories, is completely subjective. Strong, almost defiant lines of modern abstract art can touch one person, while another can become enthralled by the intricate designs of Russian folk art. The choices are endless as the number of incredibly talented artists continues to grow.
