About the Item
Postcards From the Edge of the West
My work originates from journey and travel. The process often begins with extensive historic research, followed by an epic journey into the landscape as a means of experiencing the land. The paintings document a landscape that flows between two realities: one outside the picture attempting to capture nature and one inside the material flow of abstracting the experience of space. I utilize the traditional methods of landscape painting such as the observation of light, shadows, and transparency, and try and merge that process with the emotional space held by a direct experiences in the land, memory, and history. The white border surrounding each painting suggests a card and the souvenir printed material – a postcard – sent out when on a journey; much like the journey I take part of in my artistic process. This particular painting (card) is inspired from the landscapes along the Coeur d’Alenes trail in Northern Idaho. It is a place of rugged and stark beauty barely on the old maps and outside the edge of the Louisiana Colony. It is a place that is part image and part abstraction; color field painting and rendering; a place not yet born. –Don Pollack
The lush landscape in Don Pollack's "Coeur d'Alenes Trail" brings a calm serenity to the viewer. The deep green pines in the are reflected on the calm water while a moon illuminates the entire scene. A deliberate white border on the canvas "frames" the entire piece and enhanced by the simple white frame measuring 37.5 x 61.5 inches.

Don Pollack BIOGRAPHY
Don Pollack is a Painter and Adjunct Associate Professor of Visual Communication at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. His work investigates among other things, the relationship between personal mythologies and representation in painting and how it may simultaneously give reference to a narrative.Working in cross disciplines has influenced his perspectives as projects begin with an epic adventure. Conceptually proceeding from the premise that all vision is historic and constructed, Pollack’s research starts with the planning of a long distance trek,– such as a 3000 mile journey via bicycle following Lewis and Clark. His work has utilized maps, documents, photography, painting, and installation.This work was routed in a previous investigation into the role of museums in the process of forming collective memory.
Don studied design at the University of Illinois and painting at the Ohio State University where he received his MFA.The state of Illinois has recognized his history based work with a special bicentennial edition of the ‘Order of Abraham Lincoln’ award. He has exhibited nationally and internationally and has shown many solo shows in, Chicago, New York, Atlanta, and Canada.
True Life Novelettes is the most recent addition to the bigger project; Crossing
The Great Divide which is loosely a series of landscape and history projects I
began in 2009. It explores among other things, current events and personal
literary interests through the construction of large scale [48x72”] book cover paintings.
I use a variety of images juxtaposed with bylines and misplaced authors in order
to create new meanings. I read the print edition of the New York Times for current
content and subject matter, and because I still like the feel of a large document and
printed typography. Recently and with a twist of prescient irony, a found myself
reading a special supplemental section of the Times declaring that “the post-text
future is here!” Could that be good for painting, now that we are entering an online
culture ruled by pictures! But if our information will become dominated by pictures,
slogans, and emotional announcements, I do fear that the arguments driving political
discourse will soon become completely supplicated by popular memes. What should
the new best sellers look like? Do I have enough time to read them? Underneath
all this fanfare is it possible that the discussion will also be reduced to the display
of personal artifacts of material culture? In the fashion section of today’s Times the
headline reads, “Can you wear Dior to the Protest March?” (Enter my books.) I first
start by writing columns and mixing up the authors with made-up titles (from films
and books) and looking for strange connections to create a metaphorical tension. I
then look for popular images and taglines in the news, print media, and the publishing
business, and search for catchy phrases from film dialog. Then I combine everything
into a new design layout to form a hybrid of ‘true life novelettes’ and modern classics.
Climate change denial and alt/fake news declarations become great sources for topics
in the overwhelming modern noise machine too grim to bear. I cancel my cable subscription.
But what are the conditions for making a painting in a world saturated with
images? While the representational, abstract, and technical concerns of painting collapse
into the same memory well, what are we to say especially when we have “seen all the
films and seen all the pictures”? The works of Tursic and Mille have pointed me into
this new direction. In order to visually reclaim myself from disappearing into the ruins,
I adopt a strategy combining editorial cartooning, oil painting and graphic design. I
am attracted to those handsome publisher’s design formats, especially the ones that
utilize carefully-placed typography and eclectic images– such as Everyman’s Library,
Penguin Books, and Barnes and Noble. There are colored stripes running along the
sides of the covers identifying the modern story collections, with the authors’ names
set in script fonts. These various formats also hold the space to paint a combination of
historic events and contemporary imagery from popular culture. I also patrol the web
and search for vintage advertising campaigns for copy. Perhaps this grimness can have
an uplifting thread. However, Virginie Vuillaume in Another Girl warns, “desire leads to
disaster, partly bound up with fiction but also with death and catastrophe. The fate of
those who are in love with images is always tragic, desire always leads to disaster.” So
now Tursic and Mille’s painting that appropriated an image of a house on fire from a
scene from Andrei Tarkovski’s film The Sacrifice also becomes my subject matter for the
cover of the Year of Living Dangerously. For 2017, The Year of the Eclipse, the cover takes
direction from a modern classic rendition of Frankenstein, with his head screwed on
backwards. Maybe the only way left to paint now is by moving things forward by the
only way possible,– through other mediums. The byline lyric for Eclipse is now taken
from the Youngbloods popular song of 1967, Get Together,–so come on Frankenstein,
‘Smile on Your Brother’.

- Uscita - Large Scale Trompe L'oeil Gardenscape Inspired by Ancient Roman FrescosBy Carol PylantLocated in Chicago, IL"Uscita" takes Inspiration from ancient Italian frescos originally found at the Villa di Livia outside of Rome. The trompe l'oeil frescos were from a subterranean room used for dining. The lush gardens gave the dinner guests the illusion of dining alfresco. Here Pylant took particular notice of the flora and fauna painted over 2000 years ago only to discover they were species that were also present at her then North Carolina studio. The artist adds an architectural element to the gardenscape to suggest a portal from the past into the present. This exploration of the ancient world and its connection to the present is a central theme running through Pylant's work. Carol S.

- Spring Morning - Serene Landscape, Expansive Blue Sky with Calm Lake, TondoBy Ahzad BogosianLocated in Chicago, IL"Spring Morning" is a minimalist landscape painting depicting subtle shifts of color in a cloud covered sky.

- Echo - Monochromatic Scene, Ladder and Doors in Muted Gray, Original Oil, FramedBy John SeubertLocated in Chicago, ILA ladder and several doors seemingly float in air while a full moon illuminates this surreal scene. "Echo" is painted in muted shades of grey bringing a melancholy to the overall aesthetic. The original oil painting is framed in a repurposed frame that the artist has distressed and painted. It measures 24h x 30w inches. John Seubert Echo, 2023 oil on canvas 16h x 20w in 40.64h x 50.80w cm JSE077 John Seubert b. 1958, Chicago, IL In the early Nineties, John Seubert was living in a former hotel in a high-rise building on St. James Place in Chicago. The apartment was tiny, as hotel rooms tend to be, and clad with paper-thin walls allowing sound to pass from one apartment to the other. At the time, John’s artwork consisted of pounding copper sheets into tables which was a noisy endeavor to say the least. Following several noise complaints from the neighbors, John had a dream that he was living in a ramshackle house but with plenty of room to work and no attached neighbors. The following day after lunching at the McDonalds in Lincoln Park, John wandered the neighborhood a came upon a shabby, falling-down old Victorian house. He located the real estate agent, put in an offer, and weeks later was pushing a shopping cart full of his belongings to his new home. This 144-year-old Painted Lady provided a blank canvas for this inimitable artist. For many years the house remained so empty that John was able to ride his Japanese fold up bike throughout the 1st floor. “Some people want to have sex...Category
