Amanda Acker
Car Shadow - Contemporary Field Landscape Through Window Blue Sky Clouds, 2024

2024

About the Item

A peaceful landscape with a field, blue sky overhead and tree line on the distant horizon is seen through the window of a car in this contemporary oil panting on panel. Framed in a thin, light natural wood float frame. Signed and dated on recto. Amanda Acker’s nuanced oil paintings on panel give a glimpse into moments and spaces from real life. The result is carefully painted, captivating work that is both universally recognizable, reflecting a feeling of the everyday, and deeply personal, evocative of pastimes and lives lived. Born in Illinois, Acker has been featured in The English Room’s Artist Spotlight Series and the MADE Series on Anthow Circus, and has exhibited at The Provincial, Kaleva, MI, and BLK MRKT in Traverse City, MI, and elsewhere in the US. The artist lives and works in her home on a country road in Onekama, Michigan, near the shores of Portage Lake.

True North - Orientation, Surreal Sky with Billboard, Rainbow and Fireworks
By Mark Bowers
Located in Chicago, IL
"True North - Orientation" is a worms-eye view of a jumbled sky bursting with both fireworks and a rainbow. The surreal quality of the imagery makes the viewer question reality. The ellipsed edges confirm the scene as an inner vision rather than a window on the world. The foreground billboards add another dimensional question to the landscape. The painting itself is painted on a handmade wooden panel with beautifully finished edges so no frame is needed. Mark Bowers True North - Orientation oil on panel 9h x 12w in 22.86h x 30.48w cm MJB012 TRUE NORTH PAINTINGS Unconscious systemic biases may guide our actions or direct us---similar to the human construct of “True North”, which holds to coordinate systems. The Earth’s “Magnetic North” moves over time according to polar shifts; flux and correction is enabled by polarity. In these paintings (Privilege, Orientation, Belief, Identity, Equity), I use compositional elements referencing nautical com- passes to suggest that society must navigate not within systems, but naturally through positive relationships and change. I hope that my art represents our present day - but also imparts a dreamful glimpse of hope and faith within. Explanation: A magnetic compass does not point toward the true North Pole of the Earth. Rather, it more closely points toward the North Magnetic Pole of the Earth. The North Magnetic Pole is currently located in northern Canada. It wanders in an elliptical path each day, and moves, on the average, more than forty meters northward each day. Evidence indicates that the North Magnetic Pole has wandered over much of the Earth's surface in the 4.5 billion years since the Earth formed. Mark Bowers- Artist Statement With the depiction of landscape playing such a central role in the history of North American art, it seemed to offer many of the critical possibilities I was looking for, and it felt more and more like something I have always known. Something I could easily apply, stage, and manipulate as a diary. My work consists of small-scale highly detailed landscape paintings. They are inspired by the comfort, trepidation, and beauty found in the mundane Chicago Suburbs. I combine nature, decorative house wares...
