http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur reviews on art and artists on the Web Sat, 22 Sep 2007 16:12:09 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en Delicate, emotive, empassioned, delightful -- these are the reactions I have to Anne Vis' beeswax artwork.  There is a other worldliness about it, pure and gentle.  There is a quiet beauty that carries a vitality and spirit of loving light.  How can an expression be more than that?  The spirit ... http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur/2007/09/18/the-beeswax-art-of-anne-vis/ digg_url = 'http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur/2007/09/17/the-photography-of-tobias-zeising/'; Delicate precision and light, this is what first draws you in.  Then his subject matter traps you, and you are forever enchanted by this young man's eye. I found Zeising's website quite by accident, out scouting for a script on another website which had a link to it.  And ... http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur/2007/09/17/the-photography-of-tobias-zeising/ digg_url = 'http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur/2007/09/14/the-art-of-lisa-whipkey/'; Feeling. Art which magically sweeps you into its experience. Moment. Life. The art of Lisa Whipkey holds a special gift for your spirit.  When you experience one of her special pieces, regardless of which one, your spirit pauses, breathes, and is enchanted. For an artist/photographer to have such a touch, their works reaching to affect ... http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur/2007/09/14/the-art-of-lisa-whipkey/ digg_url = 'http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur/2007/09/13/the-art-of-tik-aka-aniocean/';   Dramatic, dynamic, explosive are three words which came to mind seeing this young graphic designer's work.  Utilizing photographic subjects, digital effects, and a dynamic vision, his work has a powerful effect on the viewer.  Immediately, his works bring me to think of Fantasy worlds, rich in danger and delight.  ... http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur/2007/09/13/the-art-of-tik-aka-aniocean/ digg_url = 'http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur/2007/09/12/mark-boyle-photography-tact-finesse-framing-and-vision/'; A visit to Mark Boyle's website brings you to see some most impressive views of a world few of us will ever have the time and know-how to find and see.  The gift of Mark's work is the careful craft, tact and finesse he holds within his ability to ... http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur/2007/09/12/mark-boyle-photography-tact-finesse-framing-and-vision/ I'm back.  I'm almost caught up with all the details required to get life running normally.  Art reviews begin again tomorrow.  I'll probably do a run of them to get caught up on my own list, and sort through the requests during the rest of the week to see which ... http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur/2007/09/11/back-from-vacation-and-art-reviews-start-again-tomorrow/ Georgian artist Lia Chechelashvili's minimalist art is her signature in my opinion.  These works will stand the test of time in their modern expression of movement in contemporary intimate human relationships with other people, with activities, with objects. Simplicity speaks volumes in these works, potently emotive and vigorously insightful. The viewer feels the ... http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur/2007/07/23/the-art-of-lia-chechelashvili/ Magical Places -- that's Andrew Gibson's website where his photography takes you on a worldwide tour, from Norway to Uruguay, From Central Park, NY, USA, to Scotland's coast and beyond.  Magical?  Yes.  But also achingly real, quietly penetrating your eye and mind to make you feel as if you're there, transported out of ... http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur/2007/07/10/andrew-gibsons-magical-places-fine-art-photography/ Shoshanna Bauer is, by my definition, a fine artist.  She paints first and foremost from inspiration, from the soul, from the Self.  Free and completely clear of self-imposed restriction, she exemplifies what I find precious and wonderful in the undiscovered fine artist -- unaffected purity of expression. Phoenix is glorious. Black ... http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur/2007/07/02/the-art-of-shoshanna-bauer-fine-artist/ The stuff of dreams and nightmares. The substance of real expressing surreal -- pervasively touching, tangibly effectual.  That's Erika's sculpture work.  She works in clay -- wet, gooey, squishy, primitively sensuous. And paper mache -- wet, gooey, squishy...pulpily primal. Her sculpts have meaning.  Significance delivered straight from the breast of the id -- love, ... http://www.nakedgenius.com/art-reviews-by-dlkeur/2007/06/27/the-sculpture-of-erika-takacs/
