Agnes Murray Art

In much of my work images derive from my longstanding interest in architectural form, such as those in the “Approaching Slains Castle” and “Roanheads/Peterhead” series of work. These two places are depicted in parallel series, exploring vernacular structures, the interconnectedness of public spaces, and the sometimes obscure borderline between public and private. Old forms of social structure, expressed through the architecture of the old manor house, contrast with more contemporary society, provoking questions about how we live and work in community, and the scale of sustainable human habitation. Parallel to the artwork of buildings and structure, much of which, though hand-drawn, is photo-derived, is a long-term series of work done by direct observation. One ongoing subject has been “geraniums,” which I have come to understand is something of a misnomer, as these plants are cultivars of the genus pelargonium, both geranium and pelargonium genera classified in the Geraniaceae family. Through the Plant Cure artist’s residency at Brooklyn Botanic Garden I read much more about this family of plants, including the introduction of pelargonium plants from South Africa to Europe and beyond, the traditional medicinal uses of the originating plants, and their use in modern allopathic medicine. BIOGRAPHY Agnes Murray is an artist whose work includes original lithographs and intaglio prints, monotypes, artist’s books, drawings, photographs, watercolors and oil paintings, which have been exhibited nationally and internationally in curated and juried exhibitions. In recent years she has returned to working in clay, exploring both functional and sculptural forms. Her first solo exhibit in New York City was presented by Tabla Rasa Gallery in Sunset Park, Brooklyn in the spring of 2015. She has had prior solo exhibits at the Southampton Civic Centre Art Gallery, Southampton, England, the Frederic Remington Art Museum, Ogdensburg, NY, and the Roland Gibson Gallery, Potsdam State College (SUNY). She is a recipient of the Bronx Recognizes Its Own (BRIO) artist fellowship, awarded by Bronx Council on the Arts in 2019 (painting), 2014 (printmaking), and 2005 (printmaking). Her work is included in the collections of Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris; Brooklyn Museum; Pinacoteca do Estado de São Paulo; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Southampton Art Gallery, Southampton, England; Toledo Museum of Art, Ohio; Munson Williams Proctor Art Institute, Utica, NY; Columbia University; Harvard University; Rochester Institute of Technology; The University, Southampton, England; Trenton State College; University of Iowa; the Library of Congress; the New York City Public Library; and other public and private collections. She graduated from the University of Maryland, College Park, earning a B.A. in Studio Art (High Honors), with a minor in Art History, and received her M.F.A. in printmaking from the California College of the Arts, Oakland (formerly California College of Arts and Crafts).

Abstract India Edition 3/5 Linocut Print Green Blue Turquoise Architectural

By Mukesh Sharma

Located in Norfolk, GB

There is a natural and raw understanding in Mukesh Sharma’s prints that both depict, and are influenced by, the Rajastani communities of his home town in rural India. In these Limited Edition fine-art prints, made over a period of twenty years, we are offered the colours of India’s ancient land, the textures, light and the patterns that are everywhere. In the patterns of the arable fields to the jali's (carved screens) in the architecture. This work is however not romantic nor nostalgic but shows a deeper rooted need to offer a visual heritage of place, of where the artist is from and the journey that he is taking. The results are both compelling and honest. Mukesh Sharma, Celebration B, Lino-cut on Drawing paper Edition: 3 of 5, 2005 Image size: 47 x 39 cm / Sheet size: 79 x 55 cm Unframed Mukesh Sharma's work: It is often in childhood that paths are set for what we will become. Mukesh Sharma hails from a rural, agricultural village in Rajasthan, India. His Father is a craftsman who fixed and mended farm machinery and understood the working parts in the processes. Sharma followed in his Father’s footsteps, as is often the case in Indian families, but his was not the machines of the fields but the presses of the printing studio. Like his Father, Mukesh Sharma is fascinated with understanding how things work and how he can manipulate the metal in his hands. It is not surprising then that his medium of choice is printing. One of the most physically challenging of all the practices, it can often be physically challenging as well as technical and detailed. In his youth, Sharma would draw with stones on walls and floors. He was lucky his family encouraged this and he is grateful for his early art-training at the Jaipur School of Art but it was at the Baroda Art Department that he was introduced to the great printing traditions of Jyoti Bhatt...
