Mark Moore Fine Art is pleased to announce the released of a new edition by artist Ben Charles Weiner released today.

By photographing luxurious ephemera at close range, then using the resulting image as his subject, Ben Charles Weiner creates works that pose a confusion of object, subject and medium. The disorienting imagery in such works reflects a blurred boundary between the human and the technological. In Gel Monochrome Variations, Weiner digitally stretches an image derived from one of his paintings of hair gel to create a variety of different compositions. Weiner received his BA from Wesleyan University, CT. His work has been shown nationally and internationally in galleries and museums, and is in public collections including Sammlung/Collection (Germany), the Progressive Collection (OH), the Frederick R. Weisman Foundation Collection (CA), and the Microsoft Collection (WA). He lives and works in Queens, NY.

Gel Monochrome Variations #1-3, 2016, is Ben Charles Weiner’s first edition with Tempe Digital. Weiner digitally manipulates an image derived from one of his hair gel paintings to create three distinct variations. Gel Monochrome Variations continues Weiner’s exploration of body enhancement, and the blurred boundary between the human and the technological.

Tempe Digital‘s limited edition prints and contemporary art textbooks have involved collaborations with artists including Jonas Wood, Alex Olson, Cory Arcangel, Jessica Labatte, Takeshi Murata, Chuck Close, Holly Coulis, Brian Alfred, Kevin Appel, Petra Cortright, and Ridley Scott, among many others.

MMFA Artist ZEMER PELED is being featured at COLLECT at the Saatchi Gallery on King’s Road in London opening today and running through this Sunday. Here is a short video on the work there as it was in process: https://youtu.be/mpKDf5oZnvo

Image: Zemer Peled, Dusk, 2016 / porcelain shards, fired clay / 36 x 24 x 27 in

The Cynthia Corbett Gallery, Stand 6.4, is presenting the work and their presentation will include new work by Zemer Peled who will give an Artist Talk at COLLECT on Friday 3rd February at 2pm.

Zemer Peled is acclaimed for her unconventional relation to porcelain, as well as her examinations of the beauty and brutality of the natural world. She utilizes a process of creation and destruction to make sculptures consisting of thousands of porcelain shards, resulting in works that can be read in relation to art historical tradition, outsider art and natural phenomena. In 2014, Peled was shortlisted for the Young Masters Maylis Grand Ceramics Prize. She is currently visiting artist in residence at California State University (CSULB).
