Exhibition Dates: 11 June – 10 July, 2010

RE/PRODUCING COMPLEXITY at Artlab33 | Art Space features artists Raúl Perdomo and Liz Atzberger. Both artist’s paintings and drawings take a similar route to reach their goals in a field of rich textures and enveloped in swirls of color.

“Re/producing Complexity” refers to Complexity Theory and Chaos Theory, systems that are too complex to accurately predict their future, but nevertheless exhibit underlying patterns that can help us cope in an increasingly complex world. Obviously, visual representations are not the same as working with mathematical computations. However, both artists continue a longstanding tradition of exploration and experimentation with abstract phenomena as the route to their ends.

Progression: Kim Nicolini

Kim has been a writing contributor over the years but she also makes art.

Progression:
“Working in spurts, but spurts that feel good. Making progress, but have a long way to go. Having a long way to go feels good too. We’ll see how it ends up. Here’s the progression so far. It’s an exciting process for reasons I’ll explain later. Right now I have to put the Hoover Wind Tunnel to work. I wonder if anyone but me can notice the progression?”

I am a Japanese-born self taught visual artist, inspired to create an expression of contentment through my minimalist art. I currently live and work in Miami, Florida. I resigned to become an artist after I read a summarized version of Kierkegaard. My art is an act of what Kierkegaard called “subjective truth.”

Art – LINESCAPING allows art lovers of all kinds to visualize a sense of garden tranquility. My artistic style of accumulated repetitive lines shape unique compositions, creating a Zen like feeling of peace and splendor. I see an expression of contentment in my art and believe our minds are a part of nature, intrinsic to perfect beauty.

“In our minds there is an awareness of perfection and when we look with our eyes we see it.” – Agnes Martin (1912 – 2004)

Technique – Painting lines with acrylic paint is a well controlled version of drip painting, and it requires certain mastery. The tuning of the tool requires constant readjustments in order to produce the smooth and even lines. Although my art appears simple, the production of it is not as simple as it seems. There are numerous treatments I perform to acrylic paint and surface of canvas prior to making lines. Once all the preparations are done, however, the line-making goes surprisingly fast.
