About the Item

"Sea of Stripes: Pears" is a still life painting featuring hues of green, yellow, blue and white. Jordan Baker is inspired by the works of Rachel Ruysch, Adriaen van Utrecht, Caravaggio, Raphaelle Peal and Velasquez. Hudson Valley-based artist, Jordan Baker creates paintings, sculptures and conceptual works. For OUT OF THE ORDINARY, Jordan created a group of works that represent her meditation on traditional still life painting, and finding dynamism in stillness and nuance in simplicity. “Sometimes we are told to not get lost in the details or get tunnel vision, but in this case, I allowed myself to do just that, exploring the interior world of these items,” she says of this series. The three paintings from the Too Much Is Never Enough grouping is an exploration on the concept of taste and the wavering line between excess and abundance. Instead of offering a tasteful amount of different items (two plums, a half a loaf of bread, a single glass of wine, etc.), she has composed a still life with a classically distasteful amount of a single item in order to explore the subjective nature of “good” taste. Jordan attended Tufts University, has a BFA in Art History from Syracuse University, and an MFA in Mixed Media from SUNY Albany.

Two Pears with Grapes and Shallot
By Randall Mooers
Located in Fairfield, CT
My paintings begin with a serious sense of play, both in the staging and the creating of the compositions. It is at this beginning stage that I operate under the Dadaist dictate that “anything can be art”, and at the same time I seek out a balanced and harmonious composition by way of line, shape, and color. I work according to my whimsy, sometimes seeking to assert some form of narrative however personal or ambiguous, and other times I am simply satisfied with the hint of a human presence. Once I have my compositions the paintings then very quickly become about work, a very labor intensive work that forces me to focus my mind and slow things down (which I feel is relevant especially in this day and age of high-speed everything). A great amount of effort is spent on trying to get to the highest level of finish that is possible according to my current skill level. For inspiration I have drawn from the past four centuries of object specific paintings, from the ontbijtjes (laid tables) of the 17th Century Dutch masters such as Willem Kalf, Jan Davidsz de Heem, Abraham van Beijeren...
