ARTIST STATEMENT
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The early art of Northern Ireland is rich in the highly distinctive
motifs which characterize the Celtic style. Central to this was the
tendency to express ideas by symbol. This premeditated abstraction
resulted in the curious (and occasionally grotesque) icons that are
the foundation of our art. To this day Northern Ireland remains steeped
in such icons. From the ancient standing stones to the highly charged
graffiti of Belfast, they are embroidered into the fabric of society
and brandished from almost every street corner. |

Beans Barton is a Texan local treasure!
His art can be found on cars, walls, columns, CD & album covers,
shoes, jackets, t-shirts, coffee tables, over sofas and upside-down
in bathrooms. His creativity knows no bounds as he creates an endless
array of fantastical creatures and humanoids.

Chinese money, or on the hand of God.
There really is no adequate explanation to define
Chinese money, except to say we bought a house with
little, or no money at the time.
Details are not necessary
We offered, they took.
Bankers and lawyers moved us
in three months.
Each step required "bold" checks
,the uncovered type, which nature, in turn,
covered.
Totally amazed we moved 406 steps from the beach.
(a month early, closing was moved up) .
I gasped,
hoping for good weather
and waiting for time to slow.

INVITATION TO ALL ARTISTS AND A CALL FOR ENTRIES (Deadline
extended!)
ART
at WAR THE ARTIST'S VOICE
The Aldo Castillo Gallery will present an exhibition to provide
a forum for all artists (established and emerging) to express
their views on the current acts of war and war in general.
The Gallery's social mission is to increase awareness of
the significant cultural contributions of international artists
and Latin American artists in particular, through exhibitions,
educational programs and live performances. Any "theatre"
of war is so inconsistent with our overall mission that we
feel compelled to encourage artists to express their individual
perspectives as a means to further dialogue and present the
multitude of opinions that surround this subject (it seems
ironic that the current Iraq war is taking place in Mesopotamia,
where one of the world's first civilizations and important
cultures was located).
DEADLINE FOR EXHIBITION ENTRY: July
14th , 2004
