In this two-day plein-air sculpture workshop, students will learn how to sculpt directly from nature in bas-relief.

In this course, artists will work outdoors to select their subject materials, which may range from individual botanicals such as florals, branches, and leaves, to multi-plant arrangements and landscape composition.

Working beside their selection, students will learn how to sculpt in low-relief by sketching their subject directly onto clay and building outward three-dimensionally in an alla-prima, intuitive style.

Instruction will include how to compose your subject matter within a defined space, organize depths according to an internal establishment of volumes and perspective, and utilize different textures and patterns to convey nature’s diverse forms. Students will learn how to edit nature’s infinite details into its most essential and striking components and capture the transitory nature of live botanicals. Consideration for artistic composition, surface texture and depth will be discussed. Demos on how to block-in a bas-relief, draw directly into clay and develop form will take place. Discussion will include the function of bas-relief as botanical study and as artistic three-dimensional records of the natural world.

Clay and wooden boards will be provided. Students will work outdoors, weather permitting.

Course Outline:

Day One:

Setting up your Bas-Relief

How to construct a clay base for bas-relief
Selecting your subject matter
Clay as canvas: drawing directly onto the surface plane
How to organize and establish depths
Day Two:

Refinement of forms
Essentializing nature’s multiplicities
How to describe visual and color differences through texture and composition
Addressing the challenges of working from life’s transitory stages

The McColl Center's internationally acclaimed Artist-in-Residence program serves as a catalyst for growth for emerging and mid-career artists. McColl Center hosts three residency terms per year—fall, winter/spring, and summer, for four artists per term. An artist residency at McColl Center is a moment to think big, take risks in the creative process, and explore ideas within the context of Charlotte.

Artists-in-residence receive private housing adjacent to McColl Center, a large-scale private studio in our historic building in Uptown Charlotte, curatorial guidance, marketing and PR support, and a generous stipend. While in residency, our artists have the freedom to fully focus on artistic research, exploration, and creation while also engaging with McColl Center’s Igniters community and the local creative sector.

The Winter-Spring 2025 Artist-in-Residence program runs from January 7 - April 14, 2025.

Course Description
In this week-long workshop students will aim to complete two drawings using the materials of
red, black and white pencils, graphite and charcoal. Dividing time between block in and
modeling stages students will hone their skills of accurate observation and conceptual
knowledge to convey both a physical presence and character of the model. A skull and ecorche
casts will be used to bolster the discussion of the architecture of the portrait and the
fundamentals of representation – character of the model, anatomy & structural conventions, and
form rendering.

With the aid of master drawings we will investigate the historical use of dry media, from the Renaissance to the 19th Beaux Arts, and discuss the use of material to evoke the hue variety and textures of life.

Chelsea will illustrate each stage of the drawing process with a demonstration, one to be completed in three colors and one in charcoal and graphite. Alongside demos students will receive one on one critiques helping them towards their independent goals.

Our Mission:

"To establish a not-for-profit foundation which fulfills the vision of Idaherma to discover and promote artists worldwide who exemplify a passion for art and understand the beauty that their art conveys and acknowledge the impact that their work has on our world.

In an inspirational setting removed from the distractions of daily life, CIAR’s Fall Residency Program offers visual artists focused time and a uniquely supportive environment to develop their work. On a small island off the coast of Massachusetts, CIAR hosts a group of twelve artists, who are invited to use the island itself as their studio. Living together in the historic Avalon Inn, the residents have uninterrupted time to become immersed in their creative process. Many use the time to reflect, learn from one another, and find inspiration from their costal surroundings. Residents build insight and camaraderie as they sit down to meals together, cooked by CIAR's wonderful chef.

In 2024, Duke Riley will deliver the Visiting Artist talk and Dr. Katie Castagno will join as our first Visiting Scientist, to create interdisciplinary dialogue and to explore Cuttyhunk through an ecological and climate-based lens.

Participants can select two options for their time on Cuttyhunk, with cost based on room choice:

Shared room for $1,950

CREEKSIDE ARTS is an Artist-in-Residence Program that is a unique opportunity to reflect, create, and explore in an inspiring setting among the Redwoods of Northern California. Preference will be given to applications that demonstrate a project focus on what is dear to our community: Land, place, community, nature, climate, education, and social and political consciousness.

We provide an inspiring natural setting among the coastal redwoods of Northern California for individuals as well as collaborative artistic work and expression. We welcome artists from a broad range of creative disciplines. We provide a unique opportunity to reflect, create and explore away from the hectic demands and constraints of daily life.

Our location in the heart of the redwoods and home of the Wiyot people provides a natural setting that guides our commitment to a healthy and sustainable environment. Our program facilitates an exchange of creative thought and expression between participants, the neighborhood, and the larger Northern California community with a focus on new work with a social and political consciousness.

Our one week Fall Writers residency provides each artist with fully equipped private living quarters and individual separate work/studio spaces. In addition to providing a space for solitary work, our program supports and encourages a collaborative atmosphere. Evening gatherings provide an opportunity to get to know the other resident artists as well as the permanent members of the Creekside Arts community.

Films, discussions, and exchanges with local Northern California writers are a part of these gatherings. Our residencies conclude with a creative interaction with the larger Humboldt County community.

Imagine spending a week nestled along the breathtaking Northern California Pacific Coast, surrounded by the majestic Redwood Forest and Wiyot land. At Creekside Arts, we believe in the power of the written and spoken word—storytelling. That’s why we’re excited to announce our Fall Writers Residency Program. We invite writers and storytellers to spend a week with us at Creekside Arts.

If you’re a writer or storyteller of any persuasion, this is the perfect opportunity for you to share your tale, whether it’s a fable, poem, fantasy, or autobiography. We’re looking for artists whose work aims to captivate and transport audiences through the power of their narratives.

During your stay, you will be supported by an environment that’s both nurturing and inspiring. Our symbiotic collaborative energy will encourage you to create, imagine, and practice your skills, surrounded by the stunning natural beauty of our surroundings. Join us for an unforgettable experience where you’ll have the freedom to write, explore, collaborate, and perform and bring your writing and storytelling to new heights.

Course Description
If you’ve ever wondered how you can make fully finished paintings of fleeting subjects (flowers which wilt, food which rots, etc.) then this is the class for you!
In this workshop we will focus on creating a fully resolved still life painting in a direct manner which will allow for improvisation in terms of our composition and also allow us to make fully finished paintings of subjects which may not give us a lot of time to work with them.

We will skip the initial drawing and underpainting which many of us are used to doing, in favor of diving right in and finishing each element as we go. During the course of the week we will discuss how to paint light and form, color mixing, paint handling and many other aspects of painting as well as discussing how to build a composition “on the fly” as we go.

Students will be able to pick their own subject matter for their paintings, and can choose to paint objects which will remain stable for the entire week, or can choose subjects which will change more quickly.

This course is open to all levels and there will be instruction geared towards beginners and advanced students alike.

One of the founding principles of PAAM was to promote and cultivate the practice and appreciation of fine art through holding exhibitions of those working and studying in the Provincetown Art Colony.

What is art in the 21st century? What Makes It Valuable?

The discourse on the nature of art in the 21st century has never been more intriguing. While some creators remain firmly rooted in the traditions of their craft, others boldly venture into uncharted territories, invoking a constant debate around the central question - What Is Art? What makes it valuable?

In the modern art world, it's evident that success doesn't adhere to a single style or approach. The diverse paths taken by some of the world's most renowned and affluent artists underscore the idea that every unique style of art can become valuable.

This exhibition is designed not merely to showcase art but to stimulate conversation between divergent paths within contemporary art. The aim is to prove that success in the art world is not a monolithic concept but a spectrum of possibilities, each as valid and valuable as the next.

For the grand opening of this exhibition on June 7th, we are honored to host one of the world's foremost art experts, Tabish Khan. He will share his unique insights and illuminate the nuances of contemporary art at this seminal event.

Tabish Khan stands as a pillar for democratizing art access. As a prominent art critic deeply embedded in London's art scene, he is the visual arts editor for Londonist and a staple contributor to Culture Whisper. Through his weekly top 5 exhibitions for FAD, Khan continually sheds a light on the top exhibitions to see. His dedication transcends just critiques, Khan actively supports institutions like ArtCan, City & Guilds London Art School, and Discerning Eye, championing artists and exhibitions.

Located on an ancient, ever-changing piece of land that inspires awe and artistry, The Farm Margaret River offers immersion in the sublime. It is both a working rural property and a home to artist studios — a place to make, explore, examine and restore.

The Farm sits amid the ancient and diverse flora of Western Australia’s South West region, an ecologically significant place of sacred caves, rugged coastline and monumental karri forests. This is the ancestral Country of the Wardandi people, a cultural group of the Noongar nation who have lived on and from this land, the rivers that run through it and the ocean it meets in harmony for tens of thousands of years.

Here, we seek to engage with and learn from our natural environment through experimental practices, creative inquiry and visual languages. We host artistic collaborations, exhibitions and funded residency programs that invite local and global artists to produce and share new works responding to this unique landscape.

The Farm comprises several studios and a workshop, providing access to both agricultural farming land and natural bushlands. Our farm enjoys rich, mineral-dense soils and is home to diverse flora and fauna. An artesian spring feeds a dam and tributary that flows to the ocean. Waves can be heard crashing along the isolated beaches nearby, and witnessed from walking tracks that wind along coastal cliffs.

Our residency program is an opportunity to experience this place and contribute to our ongoing collective learning. As nature informs our artists, our artists inform us. Together we pursue a deeper understanding of our environment and our role within it.

Find out more about our funded artist residency, creative partnerships and program on their website.

Visual Arts Workshop with Josie Iselin
June 9, 2024
Sunday, 12:00 - 3:00 PM
Structure of Class: (1) 3-hour In-person session (Stevenson & Winona)
C274 • All levels

CLASS DESCRIPTION

Josie will introduce participants to cyanotype printing (an alternative photographic technique) using her vast collection of dried seaweed specimens as image-making material. Josie will introduce us to her work and how she became so entwined with the fascinating world of seaweed. You will be inspired by algae's diverse biology and ecology, learn to identify a variety of green, red, and brown seaweed, and become more aware of the importance of a healthy intertidal zone and kelp forest—all while creating beautiful blue and white cyanotypes using the power of the sun. Known for its distinctive blueprint-like images, this simple, camera-less photographic technique is the same process used by pioneering, curious, and innovative botanist and photographer Anna Atkins (British, 1799-1871). Want to bring your own specimens to identify and print with? Please do! The end results are joyous and revelatory; while making art, participants have learned about an ocean ecology they haven’t thought much about before.

MATERIALS LIST: NONE

Optional supplies: Students are welcome to bring their own specimens or objects. Students are welcome to bring a bag lunch or snack.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR

Josie Iselin is a visual artist, writer and designer, and the author of The Curious World of Seaweed among other books. She is co-director of Above/Below, an ocean literacy campaign that created The Mysterious World of Bull Kelp (bullkelp.info)— a deep dive web story that was released at the end of 2023. Josie has been integrating cyanotype printing with her seaweed scans for many years and constantly gains inspiration from Anna Atkins, who used the nascent photographic process of cyanotypes to document her algal findings in 1840.

A to Z Wineworks, located at their REX HILL property in Oregon’s Willamette Valley, seeks an Artist in Residence for a term beginning in Fall 2024 with a harvest experience and ending in Fall 2025 as the 2024 vintage is bottled.

The A to Z Artist in Residence program is an immersion in the seasonal life of a winery, observing and participating in the art of winemaking. The artist follows the natural cycle of a vintage, first working a harvest, then remaining involved in the life of the winery while working on their own individual art as the wine moves from grapes to glass. The Artist in Residence initially works the 2024 vintage harvest as a paid intern alongside our seasonal harvest crew and year-round winemaking and production staff. Following the conclusion of harvest, the Artist in Residence receives support from A to Z and access to staff and properties for a period of artistic reflection and creation followed by a second partial harvest experience. The residency concludes with a public showcase of some of the artist’s work through a gallery showing, lecture, reading or performance.

About the Harvest Internship
At A to Z Wineworks, harvest is intense and filled with opportunity as fruit arrives from around the state - primarily Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, and Chardonnay, plus a cross-section of other varieties. This diversity of fruit comes from our LIVE-certified and Biodynamically farmed estate vineyards as well as from conventionally farmed locations across many different Oregon AVAs (American Viticultural Areas). The vineyard sizes range from several hundred acres to very small sites.

This paid internship position typically runs from mid-August through early November, depending on the season. We value interns who share in our company culture of working hard, working smart, and learning together. Our interns work with a team that has earned the most years of collective winemaking experience in Oregon, as well as experience that stretches from Burgundy to New Zealand. Our winemakers approach winemaking from different perspectives and they are willing to share what they know.

The internship presents a unique opportunity to learn more about winemaking on different production scales and with different stylistic goals. It provides a diverse work experience, including but not limited to, grape receival, sorting, pressing, punch downs, tank dig-outs, racking, transfers, barrel work, inoculations, wine movements, juice, must and wine additions, driving a forklift and, always, cleaning.

Harvest interns work a demanding schedule, which will almost certainly include long hours, overtime, and weekend work. The role requires the ability to stand and move for at least ten hours; to lift, bend, rotate, move, and carry up to 45 pounds over the course of the shift and on a repetitive basis, and to climb stairs, ladders and work on catwalks. We expect people to work well within a team environment and work with individuals in a respectful manner that is consistent with the company’s values.

About the Residency
Following the conclusion of the harvest, the art residency commences extending through fall 2025.
Location: The Artist in Residence will primarily work at the REX HILL property in the Willamette Valley. The artist will have access to the winery, vineyards and staff throughout the course of the residency.

Disciplines, work equipment and assistance: We are open to proposals from artists, writers and poets across all mediums and disciplines. To learn more about our current and past residents, visit our website at https://atozwineworks.com/our-company/artist-in-residence/
Support: The residency includes a monthly stipend of $800 for the duration of the residency, beginning after completion of the paid harvest internship. Depending on the medium and artist’s proposed focus, limited additional consideration may be provided in support of furnishing project materials. Housing in the winery’s onsite gatehouse can be considered for inclusion in the residency; during harvests, this housing will be shared with other interns.

Expectations of the Artist: A to Z Wineworks supports people, places, and culture. It seems especially important now to support the liberal arts that help to find ways of expanding limited vision and engaging with diverse, thoughtful perspectives that might help us grow as human beings. The artist will be expected to engage with the staff and contribute to the culture of the winery through interactions and presentations, including providing materials to feature in regular internal communications. The artist will engage with the community at the end of the residency through a public showcase of some of the year’s work in a gallery showing, lecture, reading or performance.
Application Information: Interested artists should submit the materials listed below by June 5, 2024:

• A cover letter, describing the artist’s interest in this residency
• A brief resume highlighting work history and relevant qualifications
• An artist’s biography
• A portfolio of relevant work

Interested artists may submit their application materials at: https://atozwineworks.com/artist-in-residence-2023-submissions/ and view our short film featuring the residency and past artists at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gFjqByGC4VI

In 2015, the TCCID established the Town Center Community Alliance (Alliance), as a non-profit
creative placemaking partner, with the objective of enriching the CIDs integral infrastructure
projects with beautification and quality of life programs.
The Alliance takes a strategic look at creative placemaking elements that will help the CID
reach their Vision of being a dynamic region that fosters a thriving business, academic, and
residential community. While the CID primarily builds roads, multi-use trails, and sidewalks,
the Alliance finds ways to celebrate the unique character of Town Center. From public art and
aesthetic fixtures to small parks, the Alliance drives placemaking initiatives that strengthen our
connection to our environment and maximize shared public value.
By activating the physical and social environment in Town Center, the Alliance helps attract
businesses and residents, boost economic development, and shape a sense of community.
TCCID has invested over $3M in the Noonday Creek Trail. Final phases of the trail opened in
September 2014, and spans close to seven miles in length, beginning at the Kennesaw
Mountain Battlefield Park to the Bells Ferry Trailhead. Since 2019, trail counters have logged
over 1.1million visitors along the trail. TCCID recognizes that, although successful, the trail’s
potential hasn’t been fully realized. Strategies to activate the trail need to be implemented to
attract and retain users of all ages, demographics, and physical abilities. As the Town Center
CID strives to create a healthy environment for the surrounding commercial property owners
and its stakeholders, activation of the trail will increase safety, improve aesthetics, and
introduce new opportunities within the CID.
The purpose of this RFP is to gather creative, inspirational concepts for activation on Noonday
Creek Trail. Please familiarize yourself with the full Activation Plan completed in 2018 and the
Creative Placemaking Master Plan completed in 2023.

Please see Event link for further information about this opportunity.

This workshop is for the painter looking to enhance their skills while depicting coastal scenery, be it the marshes of Southeastern Connecticut, or the crashing surf of Down East Maine. An inspirational and encouraging environment will be fostered through critique and advice. Individual attention and demonstration will be emphasized, as well as the importance of subject choice and personal inspiration. Although oil colors will be the demonstration focus, all media are welcome for working and practice. The prevailing goal will be to approach painting as a fulfilling and enjoyable experience…a learning process that allows us to grow as artists and creators with any subject matter we choose.

Share Festival, the Italian exhibition of contemporary art linked to technological evolution and science announces the theme of the sixteenth consecutive year of the Share award. The works nominated for the award must follow the theme described here:

SHARE PRIZE XVI
‘ALL-NATURAL’

For the XVIII edition of Share Festival, we make this demand because we know it's impossible.

Here in glamorous Torino -- a city known for its cordial support of "every form of art" -- we can't take one natural, untainted breath. Not only is the planet's whole atmosphere polluted with Greenhouse gases -- here in Torino, thanks to our industrial heritage and our specific geographic climate, we're particularly badly off from an all-pervasive haze of PM2.5 micrometer pollution particles, including metals, combustion products and even agricultural dust. As you read this, we breathe that.

And yet, at the very same time, our Italian province of Piedmont is world-famous for its devotion to hand-crafted, artisanal "Slow Foods" grown from the unique plant and animal varieties of the fruitful Italian soil.

In our forthcoming Festival, we plan to tackle this contradiction headlong -- through our favorite medium of technology art. Can this become a dialectic instead of a contradiction? Can we witness net.art that is all about birds, bugs, bees and natural local landscapes? Can we interact with robots made of natural woods, sculptures digitally carved from marble, and interactive artworks composed of horn, reeds, seashells, bamboo, straw, bones, fossils, or better yet, severely imperiled natural materials entirely unique to the artist's own region in the world?
It's not enough to "defend the environment" -- how can natural materials infiltrate tomorrow's unnatural substance and take some terrible, weedy revenge? Please do your best for us. We need a breath of fresh air!

Bruce Sterling, Direttore Artistico di Share Festival
Jasmina Tesanovic, Curatrice di Share Prize

Ginger Shulick Porcella In January 2023 Ginger Shulick Porcella was named as the Executive Director of Creative Growth Art Center, the premier organization for contemporary artists with developmental disabilities.

As Gallery Director, she works to build strong relationships with collectors and artists that are founded on trust. Her goal is to learn about her clients to guide them towards collecting artwork that reflects their authenticity, either through resonating with the subject matter, aligning with their passions, or telling an aspect of their life story. Everyday WFA works to ensure that their exhibitions align with their mission: to give our artists a space to connect with the greater public presenting work that uplifts, heals, and is emotionally evocative, while also constantly navigating the balance between commerce and creativity.

As an art lover, Libby has been fortunate to have the arts as a constant in her life. She began her art path studying studio art with a focus in printmaking at Mount Holyoke College in MA, and interning at Dieu Donne Paper Mill and Lower East Side Print Shop in New York, assisting artists including Kara Walker, Ann Hamilton and Ursula Von Rydingsvard. As often as she can, Libby continues to make and sell her own work and appreciates having both perspectives of the artist and the arts professional.

Libby is an active arts advocate and strives to share her passion for the arts in everything that she does. She now has been in the Denver arts community for over a decade working, jurying, guest curating and serving as a board member for institutions including Art Students League of Denver, Access Gallery, Golden Triangle Neighborhood Association, PlatteForum, 5280 Trail- Acoma Segment, Curtis Center, Denver Lights and numerous Denver Art Museum committees including Culture Haus, Denver Art Conservation Committee and Museum Friends.
