BREAKING THE CODE: A New Biographical Documentary Film About The Life Of Artist Vernon Fisher

BREAKING THE CODE: A New Biographical Documentary Film About The Life Of Artist Vernon Fisher

Best Historical Film, Dallas International Film Festival
Official Selection, Los Angeles Independent Film Festival
Official Selection, Thin Line Fest
Official Selection, Frame of Mind (PBS)

Prolepsis Pictures is proud to announce the World Premiere of “Breaking the Code”, a feature-length biographical documentary about the life of Fort Worth-based artist Vernon Fisher. We also plan to broadcast the film Texas-wide on PBS affiliate program Frame of Mind in October. 

 
Vernon Fisher has mounted major exhibitions at museums including the Smithsonian Institution, Guggenheim Museum and Museum of Modern Art in New York, among many others. He is the only Dallas-Fort Worth-born artist to receive a retrospective at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth — a space that has also hosted similar
exhibitions for artists including Andy Warhol and Pablo Picasso.
 
More important than Fisher’s accomplishments, however, is the content of his art. Not only is he such a masterfully technical painter that viewers often mistake his chalkboard-style paintings as actually being made with chalk, but he is also renowned for the emotional, psychological and philosophical depth of his work.

EXCLUSIVE ONLINE EXHIBITION NOTICE: Ben Weiner: Mood Drawings | Artsy – Opening Wednesday!

@MarkMooreGallery is pleased to present Ben Weiner: Mood Drawings, an exhibition focused on the artist’s ongoing series of “Diary” drawings. 

VIEW THIS SHOW NOW AT: https://bit.ly/486huRp

In these alchemical works, New York artist Ben Weiner soaks ink-coated chromatography paper in solutions of drugs, resulting in hazy, prismatic abstractions. Inspired by the “drug diaries” patients keep during clinical trials, Weiner made the drawings using substances left from his own daily consumption, so that they constitute a record of his mental states over time. The drugs range from the psychedelic to the addictive, to the mundane, including Marijuana, Paxlovid, MDMA, Vicodin, Kombucha, Advil, Caffeine, and Mezcal. By couching painterly expressionism within an honest record of his substance usage, Weiner self-critically engages with issues surrounding wellness and mental health.

Ben Weiner studied painting under muralist José Lazcarro Toquero at La Universidad de las Americas (Mexico), before completing his BA at Wesleyan University (CT). His work has been exhibited widely within the US and internationally, at institutions including The Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum, The Tarble Art Center, The Carnegie Art Museum, ArtSpace, La Gruta (CDMX), and The Boca Raton Museum of Art. Weiner has been included in recent gallery exhibitions at 56 Henry, Ochi Gallery, Below Grand, Grey Area, Hunted Projects, and Mark Moore Gallery. His work is represented in various public collections, including Microsoft, Sammlung, Progressive Insurance, and The Frederick R. Weisman Collection. He has been featured in publications including Artforum, Artnews, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, W Magazine, Interview Magazine, Artsy, and Vogue. Weiner lives and works in Queens, New York. Early in his career Weiner worked closely with the artist Jeff Koons as an assistant.

CAREN FURBEYRE: RECENT WORK – An Exclusive ARTSY Online Exhibition Closing Today!

Mark Moore Fine Art is very pleased to present an Exclusive ARTSY Online Exhibition by Spokane-based artist CAREN FURBEYRE.

VIEW THIS SHOW AT: https://bit.ly/3QTdJIg

Caren Furbeyre focuses on the active and thoughtful process of painting. She takes the viewer on a captivating journey, immersing them in a vibrant and colorful garden. Through her skillful brushwork, Caren creates harmonious interactions between paint and color, revealing a transcendent dimension within the tangible world.

Her playful use of paint generates a sense of joy, as shapes and colors flow rhythmically on the canvas. A recurring theme in her work is the lightness of expression and the expansion of space. By employing sweeping brushstrokes and geometric shapes, she imbues the surface with personal sentiments that bring the artwork to life. She meticulously mixes colors to achieve the perfect transparency, density, and character. Diluted layers of paint infuse the canvas with a vibrancy akin to a flourishing garden.

Caren introduces polarities into her art through grids, colors, lines, and fields, playing with transparency and opacity. In her technique of “brushdrawing,” the process of painting adds various qualities such as roundness or flatness, thickness or thinness, ribbons or lines, spirals or flows to the surface. The vitality of the painting emerges through the fluid and graceful movement of the paint. Tensions and culminations give rise to a dynamic interplay, which is ultimately harmonized by the unifying forces of color and transparency. The end result is a captivating synthesis of color and transparency, seamlessly melding into a cohesive whole.

About Caren Furbeyre:

Caren Furbeyre is a renowned painter known for her powerful and evocative artworks. With a deep passion for the art of painting, Furbeyre immerses herself in the world of color, shape, and surface to create stunning visual experiences for viewers. Her works have been exhibited in prestigious galleries and institutions across the United States. Caren Furbeyre currently resides in Spokane, Washington.
