Jessica Alazraki The Bathers 3, 2018 Oil On Canvas 60 x 72 in $5,000 Jessica Alazraki New York, New York, USA [email protected] http://www.jessicaalazrakiart.com Jessica Alazraki I was born and raised in Mexico City and have a bachelors degree in Communications from Universidad Anáhuac. I worked as a creative in advertising right after finishing high school and moved to New York City in 1998 where I worked at various advertising agencies that specialized in targeting the U.S. Hispanic market. At the same time, I was studying at the Parsons School in which I earned a degree in Graphic Design. I also entered other CE graphic design programs at various schools in NYC including the School of Visual Arts and Cooper Union. After becoming a Mom, I quit my job but continued to work as a visual artist. In 2008, I first discovered my passion for drawing and painting. Since then, I have worked with live models helping me to expand my knowledge of anatomical drawing and figure painting. After my first year of studies for a Masters Degree in Figurative Painting (2015-2016) at the New York Academy of Art, I have been preparing my self- directed body of work that represents my artistic interest, my personality and contributes to creating social awareness. I have exhibited my paintings in the U.S.A. in over 30 groups shows including several Galleries in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Long Island, Poughkeepsie, California, and Philadelphia as well as in Sotheby’s Auction House in NY and various museums like the Attleboro Arts Museum in Massachusetts and the New Britain Museum of America Art. I had two Solo Shows in NYC and have participated in more than five group shows in Mexico City and Puebla, Mexico. I have also been teaching young girls— from middle school to high school—with drawing in a private setting.

I was incredibly encouraged and realized at this moment that I wanted to make a living using my talent and doing what I loved. I was accepted at the Maryland College of Art & Design and honed my skills there as an artist, making the Dean’s List every semester until I graduated. After receiving an AA in Visual Communications, I decided to continue my education at the Atlanta College of Art and graduated with a BA in Computer Art. Shortly after graduation I realized that a career in computer art was not my passion, I transitioned to fine art painting, utilizing my computer art background. While I enjoy painting a variety of subjects, and experiment with abstractions and realism, I prefer portraiture. People fascinate me and I love the challenge of bringing out their personalities through my work.

My approach is to typically keep an eye open for interesting reflections, light patterns, views of a subject. I look for hidden beauty in everyday life that hopefully may inspire others to do so as well. I enjoy using the collage format to integrate associated images into a cohesive unit that is more compelling because of the embedded story; launched this format in five consecutive years of exhibiting in the Grand Rapids, MI ArtPrize event starting in 2014. Since 2018, my first full dedicated year as a photographer, I have been juried into several art exhibitions as follows: • 23rd and 24th (2018 & 2019) Annual Juried Photography Exhibition of the Dearborn, MI Community Arts Council • Juried Spring 2018 & 2019 Shows of the Artists’ Society of Dearborn (took first place in photography in ’19) • 2018 Pulmonary Hypertension Association International Conference and Scientific Sessions Art Gallery Showcase and Raffle, Orlando, FL • The Muskegon Museum of Art’s 90th (2018) Michigan Regional Exhibition • Crossing Perspective: Finding Similarities of Culture Exhibit at the Dearborn Black Box Gallery, Fall 2018 • 21st (2018) Annual Livonia Exhibition of Fine Arts (MI) • 6x6: Be There, Be Square December 2018 exhibit at the Las Laguna Gallery, Laguna Beach, CA • Iphonography Now juried exhibition of the Plymouth Center for the Arts, Plymouth, MA, January 2019 • Five Points Gallery (Torrington, CT) Small Works Juried Exhibition, February 2019 • Linus Galleries (CA) Fragmented Abstract Art, Blur & Beautiful International Art Calls, Winter/Spring 2019 • Scarab Club of Detroit, MI Gilda Snowden 2019 Memorial Exhibition • Vienna Arts Society (Vienna, VA) 50th Anniversary Treasury of Art juired show and sale, April 2019 • Plymouth Center for the Arts’ Fine Art of Photography 9th Annual Competition and Exhibition, Spring 2019 • APERO May & June 2019 (Harmony & Tone) Catalogues.

A timeless world of rolling hills and patchwork farms; where you can almost smell the fresh cut hay and air and hear the sounds of nature around you. I strive to create an enchanting world in my folksy style with a nostalgic feel of good times past.

Teachers advised that Louis should receive some formal training beyond regular school but the expense of formal training was too great. Instead at the age of 16 he apprenticed with and Italian master heavily involved in church art murals and restoration. A few years later Louis majored in studio art, during his early college days, and later Education at the State University of Geneseo, New York, USA. Life circumstances changed and Louis stopped creating paintings for many years. More recently he has returned to his passion of oil painting and finally, there is nothing left to prevent his pursuit of art. Over the course of may years Louis developed this simple philosophy about artistic endeavors: “After years of training and practice I have come to believe that you are an artist until someone tells you that you are not and you actually believe that.” The creative spirit lives in all of us. Only the technical pieces of observation and media usage and control need to be taught. I spend hours looking at water, clouds and flowers before putting brush to canvas. And each time I paint a cloud or a reflection in water on a canvas I feel a great sense of joy. For me painting is both a meditative process and a way to express what I cannot say with words. So wanting to share my view of the world around me, the simple pleasures and the beauty of life are my motivation for painting. Or in other words I paint to express myself and my heart is really in it.” APÉRO Catalogue Warmth - July 2019 10 3rd Michael Dumas First Born, 2008 Oil 12 x 16.5 in NFS Michael Dumas Lakehurst, Ontario, Canada [email protected] http://www.natureartists.com/michael_dumas.asp Michael Dumas Education: Humber College of Art 1969 - 1971, & post-graduate studies 1972.

  • Boundaries in Modern Representations of Bathers: an Assault on Male Sexual Pleasure
    Boundaries in Modern Representations of Bathers: An Assault on Male Sexual Pleasure Christophe Viret Water, the origin of life on earth, is the most universal symbol of fertility known to man. Every living organism depends on water for survival; water’s nurturing qualities associate it with the female body, which bears and nurtures children, populating humanity. Depictions of the nude female form immersed in water have recurred in Euro- pean artwork: drawing the female nude was considered to be the most venerable form of art by the French Academy, which led the European art world for much of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Until the late nineteenth century, visions of female nudes frolicking in water dominated the romanticized, and seductive, act of bathing. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, though, by breaking down the academic representations of bathers and their purpose to delight the male viewer’s eyes, modern artists brought the assumption of male pleasure when viewing nudes under assault. I. Fragonard, The Bathers, 1765 The female nudes in Fragonard’s The Bathers are intended to arouse the male viewer without either distancing him from them or drawing him into the painting. The Bathers was a part of the rococo movement based around the Enlightenment philosophy that the purpose of life might be to enjoy our time on earth instead of attempting to merit entrance into heaven. The American Declaration of Independence, a document that was written based on this Enlightenment ideal, stated that “all men are…endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights,” amongst which are “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.”1 Hence, rococo paintings are often “dominated by a simple and beauti- ful nature where appeased passions would leave room for pure love,” propagating an idealized “dream of happiness.”2 Both of these state- This paper was written for Rebecca Gertmenian’s Nineteenth and Twentieth Century Art elective in the fall of 2010.

But in the half-century which has passed since his death, his influence has domi- nated almost every movement of modern painting. He was born in 1839 in Aix-en-Provence, a provincial town in southern France. His father, a self-made man, started as a hat maker and became one of the most promi- nent bankers of the town. It was thanks to the money he left his family that Paul was able to continue painting in spite of his failure to sell any of his work until just before the end of his life.

  • What Copying Meant to Cézanne
    The Japanese Society for Aesthetics Aesthetics No.21 (2018): 111-125 What Copying Meant to Cézanne NAGAЇ Takanori Kyoto Institute of Technology, Kyoto Introduction Did copying hold particular meaning for Paul Cézanne (1839-1906)? Determined to become a painter, Cézanne set off for Paris in 1861. There he made drawings of the human form at the private Académie Suisse, and began to make copies of the artworks of the past at such museums as the Louvre. He took the entrance exam for the national art academy but failed. Though he gave up on that exam, he entered a succession of paintings in the government-sponsored Salons of 1866, 1867, 1868, 1869, 1870, 1872, 1878, 1879 and 1881, each rejected because they did not fit the Neoclassicist trend then controlling the Salon. [1] After the Salon was privatized in 1881, he finally had a work accepted in 1882 as the student of his friend Antoine Guillemet (1843-1918), but then lost interest in the Salon and did not enter any other works. But this did not mean that Cézanne ignored classic paintings.[2] In a process that continued into his later years, Cézanne created numerous copy drawings of works at the Musée du Luxembourg, the contemporary art museum of the period, and of the works of the past assembled at the Louvre and the Comparative Sculpture Museum in the Trocadéro, thus indicating that he maintained a strong interest in the great artists of his own period and of the past. Cézanne received official permission to make copies in the Louvre on November 20, 1863, and on April 19, 1864 he made a copy of Et in Arcadia Ego (fig.

  • "I Owe You the Truth in Painting and I Will Tell It to You"
    "I owe you the truth in painting and I will tell it to you" SYNOPSIS Paul Cezanne was the preeminent French artist of the Post- Impressionist era, widely appreciated toward the end of his life for insisting that painting stay in touch with its material, if not virtually sculptural origins. Also known as the "Master of Aix" after his ancestral home in the South of France, Cezanne is credited with paving the way for the emergence of modern art, both visually and conceptually. In retrospect, his work constitutes the most powerful and essential link between the ephemeral aspects of Impressionism and the more materialist, early 20th century artistic movements of Fauvism, Cubism, Expressionism, and even complete abstraction. KEY IDEAS Cezanne ultimately came to regard color, line, and "form" as constituting one and the same thing, or inseparable aspects for © The Art Story Foundation – All rights Reserved For more movements, artists and ideas on Modern Art visit www.TheArtStory.org describing how the human eye actually experiences Nature. Unsatisfied with the Impressionist dictum that painting is primarily a reflection of visual perception, Cezanne sought to make of his artistic practice a new kind of analytical discipline. In his hands, the canvas itself takes on the role of a screen where an artist's visual sensations are registered as he gazes intensely, and often repeatedly, at a given subject Cezanne applied his pigments to the canvas in a series of discrete, methodical brushstrokes, indeed as though he were "constructing" a picture rather than "painting" it, thus remaining true to an underlying architectural ideal: every portion of the canvas should contribute to its overall structural integrity.
