Visiting Artist Series
Chuck Webster
Craig Olsen writes on his work.. "Chuck Webster’s most recent thicket of images triggers a response from somewhere between the senses, a place where the eye’s ear is activated through optically tympanic vibrations. It’s a visual sound that can be likened to prisms of light blown into clay resonators or sung through spider’s-egg membranes, cultivating two kinds of acuity— one deep and raspy, the other high, round and liquid. They are two different harmonic bearings traveling in tandem yet integrally connected and so remaining in organic unit. -Brooklyn Rail, October 2007

Visiting Artist Series
Miguel Calderon
Miguel Calderon is a Mexican artist working in video, still photography, installation, and painting. Typically provocative in his work, he employs stereotypes and clichés to absurd measures. His painting “Bad Route” was bought by Wes Anderson and shown in the film The Royal Tenenbaums. In keeping with his “low-brow”, subversive style, Calderon dressed and positioned the masked gang on motorcycles in the painting, photographed them, and then employed a portrait painter to copy the photo.
