Medium Still-life Paintings

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, municipal structures, and personal artifacts to hint at current life and future implications in the orchestration of these elements. Each work in the series is a portrait of a search for markers on a journey, an attempt to learn from what is palpable and to appreciate the intangible. The paintings are meant to suggest the truth in the un-idealized moment--the actual truth only exists off the edges of my canvas, off stage, and in the experience of the viewer. Painting the objects in these compositions is like positioning characters on stage in a play, each adding to the dramatization Mark Bowers Little Blue Houses oil on panel 15h x 30w in 38.10h x 76.20w cm MJB008 Mark Bowers b. 1977 St. Joseph, MI Exhibitions 2013 American Painting Today: Physical and Visceral, Krasl Art Center, St. Joseph, MI 2012 Fort Wayne Art Museum, Contemporary Realism Biennial, Fort Wayne, IN Rockford Art Museum Midwestern Biennial, Rockford, IL Ann Brierly Gallery, Winnetka, IL 2009 Art Chicago, Represented by Ann Nathan Gallery, Merchandise Mart, Chicago, IL Ann Brierly Gallery, Winnetka, IL 2007 Beverly Arts Center Biennial, Chicago, IL Ann Brierly Gallery, Winnetka, IL 2005 Ann Brierly Gallery, Winnetka, IL 2003 Ann Brierly Gallery, Winnetka, IL Rhode Island School of Design, Providence, RI 2001 The Box Factory Gallery, St. Joseph, MI 2000 John G.

Dicono di Angini Tra spiritualità e colore La scomposizione delle sue opere è frutto di quella della sua anima, sempre alla ricerca di qualcosa che vada oltre. Nei suoi occhi, come nelle sue tele, c’è una malinconia “viva” che ci attraversa e ci emoziona, trasportandoci in un mondo fantastico e complesso; come lui. Tutta la sua vita è stata una sperimentazione artistica volta alla conoscenza di sé, degli altri e del mondo che lo circonda. Nei suoi colori predomina il giallo della luce divina e della speranza. Una consapevolezza del sé ottenuta mediante la sperimentazione artistica come strumento di conoscenza, come atto di autoriflessione, attraverso l’indagine del proprio vissuto, in costante tensione con l’esterno, quasi volesse far emergere quel tripudio di emozioni che tiene nelle stanze della sua anima. Olimpia Bruni Intervista con Dalì Da un’idea di Josè Van Roy Dalì, “In mostra con Dalì”. Un progetto d’arte che si concretizza in una mostra itinerante, in omaggio al padre Salvador Dalì. Lo scorso anno partiva, come una caccia al tesoro, presso la Galleria Tondinelli, nel favoloso scenario del Complesso Monumentale di San Carlino delle Quattro Fontane, a Roma, la prima edizione della mostra itinerante con la partecipazione degli artisti: Vittorio Angini, Graziano Peretti, Fausto Ciotti, Ileana Della Matera, Loredana Bendini, Ada Cardilli, Patrizio Veronese e Mario Spigariol. Tra gli artisti in mostra di particolare rilievo – non togliendo prestigio agli altri partecipanti – le sorprendenti opere del pittore aretino Vittorio Angini. Invitato nel 2007 su segnalazione di Josè Van Roy Dalì, figlio d’arte del famoso pittore catalano, a partecipare alla “Quadriennale d’Arte Contemporanea”, tenutasi a Roma presso il “Vittoriano”, Angini collabora attualmente all’importante progetto d’arte “In mostra con Dalì”. I suoi quadri si trovano in collezioni private negli USA, Canada, Australia, Nuova Zelanda, Sud Africa, Inghilterra, Irlanda. La sua pittura, risplendente di luce diffusa, penetra nella nostra capacità e sensibilità di stimolare ricordi ancestrali, che pensiamo sepolti nei meandri della nostra memoria. In molte delle sue opere par di cogliere una sorta di metempsicosi del colore, che nelle sue ricercate tinte pare trasferirsi, espandersi, in ogni angolo della tela, fluttuando oltre le rigide forme del contorno, e dove la sacralità della luce rischiara quelle impalpabili zone della nostra anima in cui risiedono i sentimenti e le emozioni più profonde. I riverberi della luce scaturita dal colore allargano l’immagine, che pare perdersi, oltrepassare i confini della percezione visiva, quasi ad illustrare, ad indicare la strada di un mondo che necessariamente dimora e vive oltre il quadro, espandendosi in orizzonti più ampi. Le forme, i paesaggi, i giochi di colore, i ritratti, appaiono come effigi della nostra esistenza, che coesistono nell’intercalare del ticchettio del tempo che scorre. Addentrarsi nelle parole di Josè Van Roy Dalì è sempre oltremodo affascinante e l’incontro avvenuto presso la sua casa museo mi ha fornito l’occasione per approfondimenti sul pittore Vittorio Angini e su “In Mostra con Dalì”. D. I quadri di Angini, che ha voluto appartenessero sin dagli esordi al suo “viaggio” itinerante, svelano le verità nascoste dei nostri desideri e della nostra immaginazione. Trovano affinità con le Sue opere d’arte ed il Suo percorso pittorico? R. Prima di tutto trovano affinità con il mio gusto e con il mio senso estetico del bello. Inoltre, scavando nel “labirinto” artistico di Angini, tra i lavori del passato e nei vari percorsi, ho trovato molteplici mondi paralleli multicromatici, che mi hanno fatto apprezzare ulteriormente il lavoro di questo artista. D. Ho avuto modo di ammirare tra le molte opere esposte nella sua galleria privata, appunto in Via Salvador Dalì, quelle di Vittorio Angini. So che sono state largamente apprezzate nel mondo della cultura e dell’arte. Un suo parere strettamente personale su tali opere? R. Il modo immediato di trasmettere, attraverso i colori, indefinibili emozioni, con la medesima semplicità di un grande romanziere. D. Maestro, in questa interessante esposizione “In mostra con Dalì”, ciascun artista presenterà, accanto alle sue, tre opere. So che ha fatto la ricerca dei pittori presenti in mostra con molto impegno e serietà, con quale criterio li ha selezionati? R. Ho saputo “ascoltare” le vibrazioni del colore e individuare, attraverso le varie tematiche, la peculiare sensibilità di ogni singolo artista. E poi, per dirla tutta, mi sono affidato al mio gusto personale, immaginando quali fossero le opere che avrei gradito collocare nella mia residenza… e quali tra queste, avrebbe apprezzato anche mio padre. D. Com’è sbocciata e che traguardi vuol raggiungere questa mostra? È puramente un omaggio a suo padre Salvador o è un omaggio ad entrambi i Dalì o...
