About the Item
A richly flowing cape drapes his shoulders, as he crouches low, eyes looking upward, “Jacques” raises his hands to test the confining walls of his imaginary box. “Jacques” reminds us that many of our limitations are self-imposed boundaries, and we are encouraged to free ourselves from the restrictions imposed by uncertainty and lack of confidence.

In 2014 and 2015, Richard MacDonald focused intently on the minerals and pigments of his patina process - specifically on the color red. Shortly thereafter, the artist revealed his discoveries in a new exhibition entitled “Richard MacDonald: Red.” The exhibition, which highlights MacDonald's creative immersion into the hue, the emotion, and narrative of color, represents a profound new direction in the artist's work.

- Blind Trust, AtelierBy Richard MacDonaldLocated in Laguna Beach, CA“Courage is a kind of salvation.” —Plato. Nothing worthwhile springs from fear: fear is the serpent in the garden, the hole in the boat, the flaw in the plan—it can steer us from danger, but ungoverned by courage it is just as likely to steer us toward a bad outcome. We all have the capacity to be brave, and it is by finding our courage that everything we value comes into being—there can be no love without courage, no kindness without courage, no creativity without courage. As we all face this crisis of unusual scope, we are all living as the figures in Richard MacDonald’s “Blind Faith” and "Blind Courage." They wear blindfolds, and cannot see. They are balancing precariously on an unstable cube. They are keeping multiple balls aloft: juggling, as a metaphor for tasks and responsibilities, cares and concerns. The serenity of these figures speak to the act of drawing on inner strength in the face of these unsettling realities. It is the working of the inner person that keeps the balls from falling, the figure from toppling, and the blindfold from hampering the vision of the desired result. In Richard MacDonald’s “Blind Trust...Category
