Ruth Marten - Histoire un-Naturelle
Artist Bio:
"Born and living in N.Y., Ruth Marten has worn several hats, in spite of the hair. From 1972 to 1980 she was an important figure in the tattoo underground and, as one of the few women practicing the craft, influenced people's ideas about body decoration. Working during the disco and punk era, she also tattooed in the Musée D'Art Moderne de La Ville de Paris during the 10th Biennale de Paris in 1977.
Hired by Jean-Paul Goude for her first illustration (and for 30 years after) she illustrated books, albums and magazines and is most associated with the "Year in Provence" books of Peter Mayle, art-directed for A.A.Knopf by Carol Devine Carson. That love of the printed image informs her newest interest: changing, through over-drawing and collage, the configuration and content of 18th century engravings.
Her book Histoire un-Naturelle, published for her 2007 London exhibit at Isis Gallery, is a catalogue of the work that came on the heels of a 17 year obsession with hair. Her drawing, painting and sculpture has been exhibited at the Aldrich Museum (Pop Surrealism, 1998), the Tang Museum (Hair, Untangling a Social History, 2004), the Halsey Institute (Hair on Fire, 2009) and is represented in many collections -- most recently in the de Young Museum in San Francisco."

GRAVITY // UN RÊVE DE DEMAIN by Filip Piskorzynski
GRAVITY // UN RÊVE DE DEMAIN from Filip Piskorzynski on Vimeo.
Synopsis:
Ayoung woman wake's up in a dream about tomorrow. she flies till gravity hits her. ///
Une jeune femme se réveille dans un rêve de demain. Elle vole dans la nature. Jusqu'à être aspirée par un monde où règne la gravité. Où on l'oblige à mettre les pieds sur terre. Les gens qui l'entourent se ressemblent tous...
Music:
"Tasty City" by Rone
About the film:
"The film was shot in 2011. We started the project spontaneously in february in Burkina Faso and two shots from there even survived over the process. we continued to shoot additional scenes at the north sea cost without still knowing all of the story we would be telling at the end. Then in Hamburg we shot most of the scenes and finished it in brussels in july.
All in all I would say: round about 7 days of shooting. Lots of nice shots we didn't put in the final editing.
Shot on canon eos 5d mkII with older nikon prime lenses: 35mm 1.4 // 50mm 1.2 // 85mm 1.4 // 105mm 1.8. All pics are manually shot single photos in sraw2 format."

Patti Jordan - Drawings 2009 / 2011
Technique: Ink & Graphite on Paper
ARTIST'S BIOGRAPHY:
Patti Jordan was born in New York City and lives and works in Montclair.
Patti Jordan was recently accepted into The Drawing Center’s online curated registry, “The Viewing Program” (NYC). Jordan received an Honorarium in 2009 for works included in “Lineweight,” a contemporary drawing exhibition at Truman State University Art Gallery, (Kirksville, MO). Two of her works have also been published in Manifest Creative Research Gallery’s 2010 International Drawing Annual. Jordan lectures on art and has written reviews for ArtCat Zine. She earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts with Honors from Pratt Institute and holds a Master of Fine Arts, Summa Cum Laude, from Montclair State University. She exhibits widely.
“Working with ink, water, graphite and solvent, Patti Jordan squeegees and pushes ink across the surface of large sheets of Fabriano paper. While not producing delicate soulful swoops with a hand-held Chinese brush, Jordan pushes and pulls her medium, coaxing and building the black ink so that it results in bold, textured and abstractly cratered and rippled layers. Creatures, bones, eyes, limbs and orifices appear, collide and condense on her horizontal and vertical scroll-like pieces, constructions of the imagination, psyche and random gesture.”
Virginia Fabbri Butera, Ph.D.

La herida tiene
sangre de cobra,
caverna de pez ciego.
La herida
diezmó los árboles,
la sangre de los labios
desató la tormenta inesperada…
