Fran Werner, Afternoon on the Dunes, oil on canvas, 16" x 20"

Premiere Gallery – Ed Bodnar Ed Bodnar is a Nashville-based photographer who owns and operates his own photography business specializing in commercial, corporate, editorial and portraiture. “From a very early age when I first saw a National Geographic TV episode titled “cameramen who dared”, I have been fascinated with the idea of storytelling through visual media. By the time I was 16 I was shooting portraits and photographing weddings, and started working at one of thelargest photo studios in my home state of West Virginia by 17.

.

“After high school I worked my way through college first as a public relations photographer at Davis and Elkins College in WV, then at Lipscomb University in Nashville. While at Lipscomb I was offered the opportunity to photograph my first magazine cover for a professional trade journal, shoot campus concerts of little known artists such as Tim McGraw, and even some of the more well known artists such as Doug Stone.
.
“We as humans have this tendency or need even to put things into a box so that we can label it and thus keep our lives organized. Many of my friends, colleagues and even acquaintances tend to tell me that I think outside of those boxes. For me I have difficulty even seeing those boxes because I don’t look at things the way most people do.
.
“Beauty is all around us, even in the ugliest, most disheveled, or discouraging of scenes so “Vision” is just a small glimpse of how I see the world. Where some people see something ugly or horrific, I see something beautiful. Where some people are looking at the big picture and see ruin and despair, I look closer and see the potential in the little things. It is my hope that you the viewer will not just see the beauty that I have found in each of these images, but that it will inspire you to go find the beauty in that which others have boxed and labeled as ugly, horrific, or even just ordinary.”

Tinney Contemporary Presents ‘The Architect Within’ by Peri Schwartz

February 7, 2012

Rodgers & Hammerstein’s ‘South Pacific’ Makes Nashville Debut February 7-12 at TPAC

.

NETworks Presentations presents a new production of Richard Rodgers & Oscar Hammerstein’s Pulitzer Prize-winning musical SOUTH PACIFIC, making its Nashville debut at the Tennessee Performing Arts Center’s Andrew Jackson Hall, playing February 7 to 12 as part of the HCA/TriStar Broadway series. For more information on the production, please visit www.SouthPacificOnTour.com.

This breathtaking new production of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s SOUTH PACIFIC is based on the 2008 Tony Award® winning Lincoln Center Theater production, directed by Bartlett Sher. Based on James Michener’s Pulitzer Prize-winning book Tales of the South Pacific, Rodgers & Hammerstein’s SOUTH PACIFIC has music by Richard Rodgers, lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II and a book by Oscar Hammerstein II and Joshua Logan.

“What better time to visit the South Pacific than the middle of February? And this ultimately optimistic story of two couples facing their own prejudices during World War II will also warm your heart with a message that speaks to issues still relevant to soldiers and families today,” said Kathleen O’Brien, President and CEO of the Tennessee Performing Arts Center. “This fresh, creative interpretation of a timeless classic is the perfect illustration of why some Broadway musicals withstand the test of time and live forever in revivals.”

Set on a tropical island during World War II, the musical tells the sweeping romantic story of two couples — US Navy nurse Nellie Forbush and French plantation owner Emile de Becque and Navy Airman Joe Cable and a young local native girl Liat — and how their happiness is threatened by the realities of war and by their own prejudices. Considered by many the finest musical ever written, the score’s songs include such classics as “Some Enchanted Evening,” “I’m Gonna Wash That Man Right Outa My Hair,” “Younger Than Springtime,” “Bali Ha’i,” “There is Nothin’ Like A Dame,” “This Nearly Was Mine” and “A Wonderful Guy.”

For more information on the production, please visit www.SouthPacificOnTour.com. Become a fan on Facebook (South Pacific on Tour).

Tennessee Artisan Market Celebrates 1 Year with Store-Wide Valentine’s Sale February 7-14

The Tennessee Artisan Market, which opened in December 2010 at The Renaissance Center, is having a store-wide 20% Off Sale to celebrate the 1^st Year Anniversary and as a Valentine’s gift to patrons and participating artisans. The Anniversary & Valentines Sale runs February 7^th through February 14^th and includes 20% off all items in the store, from large paintings to jewelry and crafts. The gallery store, which features fine art, crafts and handmade goods made exclusively by Tennessee artisans, has had a very successful first year and wishes to give back to the community while continuing to promote the wonderful talents of area artisans.

.

Formerly a bookstore, the market area was transformed into a beautiful gallery store last fall, where artisans across the state could display and sell their wares, including fine art such as paintings and sculptures to crafts such as pottery and jewelry, as well as handmade furniture and stained glass. It has recently been expanded from the original 2,000 square feet to include an additional 800 square feet of space. The market now features over 140 artisans, representing all areas of the state, from the Great Smokey Mountains in the east to the banks of the Mississippi River in the west. “For many years artists in Tennessee have wanted a central location to display and sell their work,” states Bob Kucher, Senior Director of Fine Arts. “We’re extremely proud to provide Tennessee artists a space, and to give both residents and visitors a wonderful opportunity to purchase great art and support our creative community.” The central location in Tennessee, right off of Interstate 40, also attracts out-of-state visitors, and creates interest and tourism opportunities in the middle Tennessee area.

.

The market, which offers a consignment-based retail opportunity to Tennessee artists, includes works from both active professionals and qualified hobbyists. “Pottery is our top seller, especially the colanders and oil and vinegar cruets,” says Lisa Wright, Manager of the Tennessee Artisan Market. “And lately we’ve had a lot of interest in our wood items, including boxes, bowls and decorative items. They’re very reasonably priced and make great unique gifts”. Other unique items that have been popular are the clay Fairy Houses by Sylvia Byrn and beautifully marbled silk scarves by Gail Looper. The market is also proud to offer John Walker’s artisan knives, which are collected by enthusiasts around the world. And several participating artists have also been featured on WNPT’s popular “Tennessee Crossroads”.

.

Prices for items in the market range from two dollar prints to large paintings for several thousands of dollars. “The 20% discount of the Anniversary & Valentines Sale will be taken out of the market’s share and not from the artisan’s consignment monies, “ explains Kucher, “so the artist will still receive a fair price for their work and talents”. “And because of the low overhead of the market and the support of The Renaissance Center, we can offer these wonderful pieces to the consumer for a much lower price than is usually found at Nashville galleries and gift stores. It’s a win-win situation for all,” he adds.

.

“The Tennessee Artisan Market provides an incredible opportunity for Tennessee artists to display and benefit from their creative talents and the Renaissance Center’s convenience, professional staff and facilities makes it the ideal location,” states Rich Boyd, Executive Director of the Tennessee Arts Commission. The market also offers free artisan demonstrations throughout the year where people can see the artist at work and get great tips and advice for that craft. “They’re really like mini-workshops,” explains Kucher. “Many people then actually take up that craft.” Videos of these demonstrations will be posted on The Renaissance Center website soon: www.rcenter.org.

.

In addition to fine art (paintings, sculpture, photography, etc), products offered in the market include pottery, jewelry, leather, home accessories, artisan pens, quilts, bath products, artisan knives, handmade furniture, wire art, baskets, stained glass, turned wood, hand-blown glass, knitwear, rock art, hats, greeting cards, lamps, natural soap, mosaics, books by local writers, walking sticks, hair pieces, botanical art, handmade puzzles, flagstone paintings, metalwork, painted kitchenware, fairy houses, lariat baskets, fiber arts, puppets, painted saw blades, handmade clothing, and very uniquely decorated guitars! To mark the 1^st Anniversary of the Tennessee Artisan Market in December, the store held a drawing for a stunning blown glass vase by Curt Brock, which was won by Martin Culpepper of Dickson.

.

A selection of items from the Tennessee Artisan Market are also available to purchase online with flat-rate shipping to U.S. addresses. Gift wrapping is provided for free and the market also offers gift cards for any amount that can be redeemed in the Tennessee Artisan Market or used for any program at The Renaissance Center including theatricals shows, concerts, classes and workshops.

.

“We have a wonderful extended family of talented artisans involved in the center,” explains Kucher. “So if there’s an interest in any particular craft, we can certainly schedule a free demonstration, workshop or continuing class in that technique,” explains Kucher. Artisan demonstrations and workshops can also be designed for field trips and groups and the Tennessee Artisan Market is also available for private parties and events such as a recent gathering and presentation for Tennessee interior designers.

.

The Tennessee Artisan Market is open Mondays through Saturdays, 10am – 7pm, and often on Sundays during the Renaissance Players Community Theatre performances. Artists interested in selling their work at the Tennessee Artisan Market should contact LeAnn Polk: leann.polk@rcenter.org, (615) 740-5503. For information, artisan bios and photos of some of the market items, visit the website: www.rcenter.org. The Tennessee Artisan Market phone: (615) 740-5512.

“Collective Color” Douses Nation’s Largest Antiques and Garden Show with Vivacity and Optimism

22^nd annual Show partners with 1stdibs to respond to new trends in antiquing

Featured lecturers include Miles Redd, creative director of Oscar de la Renta Home, and Nancy Power, the internationally renowned landscape designer

.

The Antiques and Garden Show of Nashville today unveiled the theme and line-up for its 22^nd annual show – “Collective Color” – celebrating the return of color to the design world. The event is the largest of its kind in the country and will bring together internationally-renowned designers, authors, lecturers and exhibitors at the Nashville Convention Center February 10-12, 2012.

.

“People today are thirsting for a little color and all the energy and optimism that accompanies it,” said Sarah Bartholomew, Co-Chair of the 2012 Antiques and Garden Show of Nashville, explaining the show’s theme. “You see it everywhere. Orange and deep purples are having a heyday. Design experts around the country agree: bold colors are a hot trend.”

Reflecting the colorful theme, the lecturers slated for this year’s show include:

.

-Miles Redd, the Atlanta-native who is internationally renowned for his glamorous designs and daring use of color. Redd is based in New York City and was named creative director of Oscar de la Renta Home in 2003.

.

-Nancy Power, a landscape designer from Santa Monica, California, whose “eclectic boldness” has earned her the title as the “Frank Gehry of landscape design.” Power is the author of the book, The Power of Gardens.

.

“This year’s show brings together a stellar group of speakers and guests who represent some of the most highly respected designers in their fields,” added Debbie Best, Co-Chair of the 2012 Antiques and Garden Show of Nashville. “Their authoritative voices will no doubt inspire Show attendees to revisit their domains with a fresh eye.”

.

In addition, the Show will partner with the sensation 1stdibs, the world’s largest online marketplace of antiques and fine art. The website bridges the traditional antiquing industry to an online community of collectors, reaching a broader audience and ushering dealers into the new era of e-commerce.

.

Bartholomew noted, “We are thrilled to be partnering with 1stdibs, which is pioneering a new way for people to unearth the rare and unique treasures that make antiques so special. Our partnership with 1stdibs is a first for the Antiques and Garden Show and reflects how the online and in-store experience can complement each other.”

threesquared Presents Jodi Hays’ ‘Strong in the Broken Places’

February 10-25, 2012

threesquared presents an exhibition of new works by Nashville-based artist Jodi Hays. ‘Strong in the Broken Places’ will feature six oil paintings and five works on paper.

In this exhibition, Hays uses physical space as metaphor for psychological space. Through a deft and deliberate balance of line and form, she leverages images one might associate with marking transitions or temporal site: construction fences, festoons, and caution tape. The work’s constant thread is an inquiry into how quotidian images can explore personal circumstance and transcend themselves. A process the artist terms ” a kind of aesthetic redemption.”

Jody Hays studied Foundations at School of Visual Arts and graduated from the University of Tennessee School of Art with a BFA in Drawing. She pursued studio and curatorial projects in Boston where she lived, and earned her MFA from Vermont College of Fine Art. She has been a resident at the Cooper Union School of Art and the Vermont Studio Center. She has exhibited her work at venues including the Brooks Museum of Art (Memphis, TN) and Boston Center for the Arts. Public collections include the J. Crew Company, National Parks of America and Gordon College (Wenham, MA). Publications include Studio Visit Magazine (Open Studio Press, Boston, MA) and her work can be viewed through Gallery ELL (Brooklyn) and the Drawing Center (NYC). She is the 2011-2012 recipient of the $5000 Individual Artist Fellowship from the Tennessee Arts Commission.

The opening art party will be held on Friday, February 10th from 6 to 9 pm. Wine and light refreshments will be served. Parking is free.

Notes on a Natural Quandary

Paintings by Tim McDowell

Recent Paintings

Andrew Winn

.

February 18-March 31, 2012

Opening Reception for the artists

Saturday, February 18, 2012

.

Cumberland Gallery marks the dynamic transition between winter and spring with two solo painting exhibitions: Notes on a Natural Quandary, by Timothy McDowell (Connecticut), and Recent Paintings, by Andrew Winn (Alabama). The show opens Saturday, February 18, 2012 with an artists’ reception from 6-8pm and runs through March 31, 2012. It is free and open to the public.

.

McDowell’s paintings demonstrate his ongoing exploration of the changing conditions of the natural world. In an unmistakably contemporary way, his elegant paintings build on the botanical and biological imagery of 18^th and 19^thcentury naturalists as well as the historical idiom of scientific documentation. With a collagists’ sensibility, the artist irregularly situates richly colored, variably scaled images of birds, waterfalls, blood cells, and other natural icons against warm, variegated backgrounds. Some images are immediately recognizable while others are not, which is the intriguing effect of removing the micro aspects of nature from the macro contexts of association that define them.

.

Beyond its visual beauty, what gives McDowell’s work a compelling edge is its bittersweet implications. As suggested in the title of this body of work, Notes on a Natural Quandary, the artist is well aware of the paradox of nature—that it is at once omnipresent and disappearing before our eyes. Images of plants, animals, and other natural elements appear unmoored from their natural contexts, floating in quiet, unobtrusive chaos. At the same time, his paintings unify these sundry natural elements, illustrating the intricate and fragile interconnectedness of the natural world, which is rendered complete by the implication of a human viewer. The paradox is more fully realized in us and our feverish efforts to view and document the natural world in spite of its rapid decay. Each painting is thus a paean and an elegy, an exultation of what remains of the natural world as well as a lamentation of what is gone and what soon will be.

.

McDowell received his M.F.A. from The University of Arizona. His works are included in many collections, including The Metropolitan Museum of Art, The New Mexico Museum of Art, and the Tucson Museum of Art.

.

Andy Winn will be showing new acrylic paintings that are part of an on-going series he began in 2007. His energetic, vibrantly colored compositions vaguely hint at conventional still life paintings and figurative portraits, but take a sharp turn towards an unorthodox, surrealistic style all their own. In this new series, you’ll find colossal bushels of apples placed in unlikely circumstances: in front of a city wall; atop an altar; or adrift in a vast field. There are also figures of an otherworldly rendering: an oddly shaped woman with 3 eyes planted firmly in the foreground, staring right at you, or a man with oversized limbs, careening down a white-brick road.

.

Aside from its off-beat, playful nature, Winn’s paintings are stunningly beautiful. Brilliant reds, greens, and blues fluently coalesce with sweeps of squares, circles, letters, and the drips and splatters that stream down the canvas. As a whole, his lively compositions are so well-rendered, they appear almost three-dimensional and on the verge of detaching from canvas to alight into the world of the viewer. At the same time, Winn’s worlds are just as alluring to the viewer who’ll be hard-pressed to resist the urge to dive right in.

.

Winn received his MFA from the University of Georgia. His works are in the collections of American Healthways, Boult Cumming Conner and Berry, and Nashville and Sexton Inc., to name but a few.

.

Regular gallery hours are 10am-5pm, Tuesday through Saturday.
