OPENING TODAY: Daniel Duford’s acclaimed “The Traveler and The Housewife” fifteen-page large-scale woodcut comic from 2013

@MarkMooreGallery is proud to present an Exclusive ARTSY Online Exhibition by artist Daniel Duford of his acclaimed “The Traveler and The Housewife” fifteen-page large-scale woodcut comic from 2013. This is our first show of Duford’s work and the first online exhibition of this award-winning piece.

VIEW THIS SHOW NOW AT: https://bit.ly/3Ot9LpU

The Traveler and the Housewife story follows two separated lovers. One goes abroad spreading death and returns altered. The other remains rooted, digging deep into the mythic soil of her home. The diaristic text belies the mythic imagery. The Traveler and the Housewife is part meditation of separation and change and part metaphor for the Columbian Exchange – the mingling of culture, flora, and fauna between the Old and New Worlds.

ARTIST STATEMENT ON THIS SERIES:

Here’s the central image of my artistic practice– an enormous tree growing out of a half-buried storage jar. The roots have cracked the walls of the submerged pot and suck up nutrients from deep in mythic and historic earth. The disparate branches unite at the nubby, gnarled trunk. The jar itself is burnished by age with fissures filigreed up to the lip from the cracked belly. The clay for the jar was dug a long time ago nearby in a dry riverbed and fired by who knows who in a crude wood-burning kiln. The tree is a maypole, boundary marker, axis mundi. I use blunt materials to tell stories. My stories generate paintings, public sculpture, books, installations, and performances.

The dendritic nature of my practice fans out from American mythology and folklore. In comics, narrative is understood through a sequence of panels. The space between the panels (the gutter) is filled in by the mind of the reader. What if the gutter were three-dimensional? How do we receive our stories? Mostly, we receive them in fragments. Like the broken pottery of a lost culture, we infer, we contextualize, and we filter those fragments through our own beliefs and biases. The meanings are fluid.

For 20 years, Daniel Duford has woven visual narratives β€” stories that flow through large paintings, graphic novels, installations, and figurative sculpture. His work is born from the mythic and political history of North America. He is a 2019 Guggenheim Fellow, a 2010 Hallie Ford Fellow and a 2012 Art Matters Grant recipient.

His work has been exhibited nationally including MASS MOCA, Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art at PSU, Orange County Museum of Art, and the Boise Art Museum. His writing has appeared in Artweek, ART news, High Desert Journal and Parabola among others. In 2011 he published Wellspring: Poems 1996-2006.  His current writing can be found on The Whole Live Animal at: danielduford.substack.com.

His curatorial projects include the 2012 exhibition Fighting Men: Leon Golub, Jack Kirby, Peter Voulkos (2012) at the Hoffman Gallery at Lewis and Clark College and An Earth Song, A Body Song: Figures with Landscapes. Works from the Permanent Collection (2020) at Orange County Museum of Art. He is Visiting Professor of Art at Reed College. He is Creative Director of Building Five in Portland, Oregon.

Previewed: LISA STEFANELLI “SHOT” – An Exclusive ARTSY Online Exhibition Opening September 13th

@MarkMooreGallery is very pleased to present an Exclusive ARTSY Online Exhibition by artist Lisa Stefanelli titled “SHOT” which focuses on the tension between recent school shootings and the right to bear arms that has brought us to a place of division and fear.

VIEW THIS SHOW NOW AT: bit.ly/3EgMhhO

Lisa Stefanelli is an artist living and working in New York City and Easton, Pennsylvania. She attended the Rhode Island School of Design and received her degree in 1989. She has been a practicing artist for the last three decades.

ARTIST STATEMENT ABOUT THIS SERIES OF WORK:

Our Second Amendment has unified us through perplexing and heartbreaking events. The right to bear arms has brought us to a place of division and fear.

We fear for the safety of our children not only because we cannot protect them from being murdered in what we once considered the safest of places but because we cannot understand how we have brought this upon them.

Mass shootings are politicized events, yet they are orchestrated by individuals who do not seek political vindication. The individuals who commit these shootings are motivated not by politics but by emotional and mental confusion, which leaves us, the survivors, somehow more remorse, and confused as well.

What are these images?
The images are photographs of powdered coated Corten steel targets on a shooting range.

What are these actual marks?
They are the marks of discharged firearms.
They are the marks bullets make upon steel.
They are marks of extreme force and severe impact, frozen in time.

Conceptually what do the marks and lines signify?
The marks represent the unfathomable act of mass shooting.
The marks are projectiles exploding on steel.
The marks are landing places of discharged firearms.
They embody impressive force, explosions physically impacting steel.
They mark an inextricable moment in time.

The lines suggest the indivisible connection between shooter and victim.
The lines suggest the human connection between the two sides of this argument,
the line between us that mourns.

They are pathways to hope and humanity.


ABOUT THIS ARTIST:

LISA STEFANELLI’s most recent solo exhibitions include Robischon Gallery, Denver, Colorado, Pentimenti Gallery, Philadelphia, Penn, Pierogi Gallery, NYC, Robischon Gallery, and Mark Moore Gallery, Los Angeles, California. She has work in the collections of the United States Department of State, Washington DC, The West Collection, Oaks, PA, The Rose Art Museum, Brandeis University, MA, The Mondstudio Collection at the Kunstmuseum, Berne, Switzerland, The Albright Knox Gallery, Buffalo, NY and The Wynn Collection, Las Vegas, NV.

ON VIEW: David Klamen’s captivating ceramic sculptures from his LIFE TROPHIES Series on ARTSY

πŸ–ΌοΈ NEW EXHIBITION ALERT πŸ–ΌοΈ

Join us for an exclusive online exhibition hosted by Mark Moore Fine Art. We are thrilled to present American artist David Klamen’s captivating ceramic sculptures from his Life Trophies Series. πŸ†βœ¨

VIEW THIS SHOW NOW AT: bit.ly/3PkLbbN

Klamen’s Life Trophies are a mesmerizing collection of visual fragments and experiences, giving material form to personal and forgotten histories. 🎨 Each sculpture is composed of diverse clay elements fused together, including wheel-thrown vessels, domestic items, playful animal representations, and other intriguing tchotchkes. Together, they construct interlocking forms that represent the accumulation of our individual journeys and memories. 🌟

Within these sculptures, you’ll discover striking details, as a single element rises to the top – a fawn, a hedgehog, a ceremonial vessel, and more. These elements symbolize moments of confidence that stand atop a mound of past endeavors, inviting us to reflect on our complex personal journeys. 🦌✨

Renowned for his semiotically complex paintings, Klamen began the Life Trophies series as experimental sketches in 2016. The transition to ceramics allowed him to express his vision and create surprising compositions. By embracing chance and improvisation, Klamen’s process captures the essence of each object through slip-casting. The surprise element adds an extra layer of anticipation and wonder to the final reveal. 🎭🌈

Make sure to take your time exploring each sculpture as they unfold before your eyes. The unique glazing technique unifies the myriad of objects, encouraging a slow discovery of the intricate details and fostering a multitude of associations. These works are a meditation on the complexities of existence, reminding us to embrace the perplexity of self-discovery and celebrate the intricacies of our own stories. 🌌🎭

We invite you to immerse yourself in David Klamen’s Life Trophies Series and experience the interplay of past and present, memory and materiality. 🌟 For more information, please contact the gallery at info@markmoorefineart.com.

ON VIEW: Heidi Schwegler β€œIn Praise” – An Exclusive ARTSY Online Exhibition

We are thrilled to announce the upcoming exclusive ARTSY online exhibition “In Praise” by artist Heidi Schwegler, on view now at Mark Moore Fine Art.

VIEW THIS SHOW NOW AT: bit.ly/45SsbXV 

Heidi Schwegler is a multidisciplinary artist born in San Antonio, TX in 1967. Her work often explores a wide range of materials such as glass, pewter, quartzite, aluminum, resin, wood, steel, and bronze, all in service of her subject matter. In her latest exhibition “In Praise”, Schwegler presents a new series of works created in her studio in Yucca Valley, CA in 2023.

In this new body of work, Schwegler is drawn to the peripheral ruin, modifying discarded objects to give them a new sense of purpose. The artist finds an equilibrium inherent in such things – they float between endurance and decay, a living death. With expert skill, she transforms found objects into intriguing, thought-provoking works of art that highlight the beauty of decay and the potential for the discarded.

The works presented in “In Praise” showcase Schwegler’s incredible innovation and artistic talent. Visitors to the exhibition can expect to be enthralled by the juxtaposition of different materials, textures, and forms in the creation of these art pieces.

Her numerous shows include exhibitions at the Co/Lab Art Fari (CA), Raid Projects, (CA), Platform China (Beijing), Scope Art 2004 (NY), and the Hallie Ford Museum (OR). Schwegler is a recent Ford Family Fellow, received a 2010 MacDowell Colony Fellowship and several RACC Individual Project Grants. Reviews of Schwegler’s work have appeared in Art in America, Daily Serving, ArtNews and the Huffington Post. She earned her MFA from the University of Oregon and is Chair of the MFA in Applied Craft + Design, a joint program of Oregon College of Art and Craft, and the Pacific Northwest College of Art.

Don’t miss the opportunity to experience the visionary art of Heidi Schwegler in “In Praise” on view on ARTSY now. The exhibition runs until September 17th, 2023. For more information, please visit our website at http://www.markmoorefineart.com or contact us at info@markmoorefineart.com
