  • 303.893.4234 Davidbsmithgallery.Com I First Exhibited Gregory Euclide at the David B
    GREGORY EUCLIDE 1543 A Wazee Street Denver, CO 80202 tel: 303.893.4234 davidbsmithgallery.com I first exhibited Gregory Euclide at the David B. Smith Gallery in our inaugural exhibition in February, 2007. Since that time, I have been fortunate to work closely with Gregory, and observe his creative process firsthand. He has attracted attention for his complex installations, unusual dioramas, and intricate and surprising sculptures. His ideas concerning the landscape — the conflict between the real and the ideal, and between pristine nature and the inevitable impact of an inhabited world — are executed with vision and perspective. What makes Euclide’s work so attractive and so compelling is the way he uses both paint and multiple media to express his ideas. His painting is impressive — detailed and executed with great skill. But it is the way he integrates this work into unique and intriguing relief pieces that particularly challenges the viewer to engage in a dialogue about the work. Through an unusually creative use of both natural and synthetic materials, Euclide transports his viewers into the world that he has created. He examines the culture in which we live, questioning how we can simultaneously preserve the environment while maintaining the benefits of a modern lifestyle. Euclide’s world is an extension of his early experiences outdoors, time spent both alone and with his family. He developed an extraordinary ability to observe and create, to evolve his ideas on location, and bring back remnants of organic treasures and weathered waste to use in his works. He is an artist who thrives in nature, and carries his love back into the studio where he puts his thoughts to paper to make landscape art fresh and engaging.

  • Album Review: Bon Iver's 22, a Million
    Album Review: Bon Iver’s 22, a Million 22, a Million, the newest album by American indie folk band Bon Iver, leaves the listener with an overarching question: Is there any border left between acoustic and electronic music? Although ambiguous as to which category it falls into, Bon Iver manages to respect both genres with a rich, homogenous mixture of experimental and traditional instrumentation. However, the album is a motley of songs that—both individually and as a group—build to nowhere, like a fleeting thought that crosses the mind at one point, but leaves no lasting impression. Founded in 2007 by singer/songwriter Justin Vernon, Bon Iver has been the vanguard of the indie folk/experimental genre. Vernon—a Wisconsin native with deep ties to the American wilderness—is undeniably influenced by a guitar-and-voice acoustic sound that is reminiscent of childhood campfires, roasting s’mores, and long silences between experienced fishermen. Tracks like “29 #Strafford APTS” and “00000 Million” have obvious connections to the folk genre: banjo, acoustic guitar, three and four-part vocal harmonizing, and chatter and laughter among musicians before the start of the song. These elements anchor the album, preventing it from straying too far from the group’s previous releases. During the five-year gap between the album Bon Iver and 22, a Million, Bon Iver evidently delved into the uncharted territory of experimental music. The use of synthesizers, vocal filtration, extensive sampling, and static-ridden beats establishes a distinctive atmosphere of digital haziness, a complementary frame for Vernon’s midwestern accent-tinged voice.

  • Ani Difranco – Revolutionary Love Biography
    Ani DiFranco – Revolutionary Love Biography The transcendent new album from Ani DiFranco, Revolutionary Love marks the latest proof of one of her most powerful gifts as an artist: a rare ability to give voice to our deepest frustrations and tensions, on both a personal and political level. “My songs have always reflected an acute connection between my personal life and the life of my society,” says the trailblazing musician and activist. “As I started to come out of dealing with years of personal hardship, I saw that my entire country was struggling with the same problems: the same themes of how much damage we do to each other and how much pain we’re carrying, and the same question of how to keep going when we’re so broken.” As her 22nd studio album in an iconic career—one that’s included winning a Grammy and countless other accolades, collaborating with legends like Prince, and breaking ground as one of the first artists to launch her own label, Righteous Babe Records— Revolutionary Love first began taking shape in the final weeks of winter 2020. After returning from a West Coast tour with a new batch of songs she’d written on the road, DiFranco laid down those tracks at her New Orleans home studio with bassist Todd Sickafoose and drummer Terence Higgins (her longtime touring bandmates), but then felt compelled to keep on writing. Before long, she’d amassed a body of work whose urgency felt undeniable. “I suddenly decided I need to push this record out by fall,” she recalls.

  • Poliça and Stargaze Kick Off Their East Coast Tour with a Residency and Showing at MASS Moca on Thursday, February 15, at 8Pm
    For Immediate Release 16 November 2017 Contact: Jodi Joseph Director of Communications 413.664.4481 x8113 [email protected] POLIÇA and s t a r g a z e Pop music disassembled NORTH ADAMS, MASSACHUSETTS — s t a r g a z e, Berlin’s new music mavericks, joins forces with the brooding pop of Poliça to create a new evening-length work Music for the Long Emergency, commissioned by and premiered with The Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra’s Liquid Music Series and now further developed by curatorial collective Infinite Palette. Pitchfork describes Poliça as “digitized Norah Jones atop Radiohead at its most polyrhythmic.” Fold in one of Europe’s hottest ensembles for a sense of this boundary-breaking collaboration. A new work for the ensemble by Daniel Wohl will open the show at MASS MoCA on Thursday, February 15, at 8pm. Emerging from a collaboration between producer Ryan Olson, the mastermind behind the neo-soul collective Gayngs, and vocalist Channy Leaneagh, formerly of folk-rock duo Roma di Luna, the Minneapolis-based synth-pop group Poliça (stylized POLIÇA) formed with the aim of “escaping to a different reality,” says Leaneagh (Rolling Stone). Its debut album Give You the Ghost, written in just two heady weeks, is a doorway to another world of hypnotic crystalline loops and fluidly funky basslines. To complete this psychedelic outfit, the duo tapped Chris Bierden (bass), Drew Christopherson (drums), and Ben Ivascu (drums) to join Leaneagh in the studio and on stage. Less than six months after its live debut, and days after its first album release in February 2012, Poliça was receiving star-studded praise, most notably from Justin Vernon of Bon Iver, who told Rolling Stone, “They’re the best band I’ve ever heard.” When Poliça released its highly anticipated follow-up album a year later, the acclaimed Berlin-based conductor André de Ridder was in the midst of founding Stargaze (stylized s t a r g a z e), a network of multi-talented and classically trained European musicians.
