Caterina Verde: Eye Of Yore

Caterina Verde, a French-American artist, has issued a new print, Eye of Yore.

Printed on Hahnemuhle 300 gram paper, and printed with archival pigment inks, Eye of Yore was produced in an edition of three.  Each print, signed and dated measures 60 x 80 cm.  

"This is part of the 'family portrait series' that I've worked off and on for many years," explains Verde who was in Paris over the end of year holidays to work on the edition.  "They are cameos of everyday life, a sort of Aldous Huxley alternate reality portal – an 'I C U, U C Me kind of thing."

Caterina Verde produces large scale installations, videos, prints and is the creator of Strange Positioning Systems, a global interactive performance project.

Eye of Yore is Verde's first print with Burning Boy Press Paris.

Her suite of more than a dozen photographs, printed in Paris under the careful guidances of Mariela Cadiz, will debut with Picturetank in Perpignan, France (August 28 - September 11, 2010).  With the exhibition, ZOOMORPHISMES & autres histoires naturelles, Hingley joins Pietro Paolini / TerraProject, Marc Cellier, and Bruno Fert at the Muséum d'histoires naturelles in Perpignan, France. Interventions and installations will also be presented by Studio Public, Ludo & Ludo and Agence Future.

"We produced 17 images for Liz for the exhibition in Perpigan," says Mariela. "I think the work is beautiful and the series shows the various facets of religion in every day life."

The series of Pigment prints were produced on Fujifilm Fine Art Fibre Baryte Gloss, 310 g; each measures 40 x 26 cm.

Liz Hingley's work intimately documents political and social issues, with a particular interest in alternative modes of community living. The series touches upon all manner of faith in and around Soho in London. One work documents a man's tattoos – Sanskrit writings all up and down his arms and chest; others show women in traditional garb at a Sikh wedding, a Minba chair at a Pakistani mosque, a baptism at the Canon Street Baptist Church.

Liz Hingley has also lectured at Colleges, Universities and Galleries in the UK including London College of Communication and the National Portrait Gallery.

ZOOMORPHISMES & autres histoires naturelles will take place at the Muséum d'Histoire Naturelles in Perpignan. 12 rue Fontaine-Neuve 66000 - Perpignan

Les Affaires

'Les Affaires' is a stunning new limited edition print from Paris based American artist Matthew Rose. It is available exclusively from Keep Calm Gallery in London.

Like a mall from hell and high water, Matthew Rose takes on this vast subject with a surreal tour through the commercial center of his mind with Les Affaires. Expertly produced by Mariela Cadiz and Burning Boy Press in Paris, Les Affaires brings consumption and all its myriad expressions to a neat explosion.

Here, Freud (lower left corner) considers the expansive narratives from behind a silhouette of Popeye-as-Buddah. A family ponders a side of beef, a salesman dangles a naked blue girl in offering from his battery-as-desk (a housewife's head). A child's arms are weighed on a scale. One of a large pair of hands beholds a fashion plate – her own head morphed into a construction of pipes topped by a fan – while the other hand readies a pen for signing over something of value.

Indeed value is explored and remade as acts of gloating, comedy and narcissistic wonder and feeding. Matthew Rose's Les Affaires, a print based upon an enormous collage takes 'business as usual' to startling new heights and frighteningly new depths. "I live on a market street in Paris," says the artist. "This happens every day."
