Alright, hit me with your unpopular Disney opinions! ❄ Here's mine ... I didn't really like "Frozen" that much. It was ~okay~ but I don't think it was as worthy of all the hype. I missed Alan Menken's musical touch, and it just didn't enchant me the way so many other Disney movies have. That said, I've been hearing that "Frozen 2" is actually much better than the first one, and I have a 4-year-old niece, and my husband apparently wants to go see it in theaters soon anyway, so ... I'll probably be seeing it soon. 😆 . . Later today @loveyoumorestudio is releasing the first of their wintery/Christmas print sleeves of this year & I'm so excited. (My wallet, less so! 😆) Keep your eyes peeled on their feed & stories to see the new prints, and use NOVEL10 to save on your orders! . .

#FridayFeature | Bruce Cohen - Drawn to realistic techniques and unusual perspectives, Cohen is particularly inspired by the sense of order found in 17th-century Dutch still life paintings. At the same time, the other worldliness of Surrealism also plays a pivotal role. However, it it is the density of detail and decorative ambiguities in Indian miniature paintings that most impact his visions. - Cohen's surrealist instincts come into play in his ability to express psychological states through interior spaces. Artists have long been interesting in depicting interiors, and indeed his paintings recall the unusual vantage points of Matisse and Magritte. Unlike such antecedents, Cohen's works transcend rationality through the use of hyperrealist representation. Though they entail layers of decision making in the arrangement of objects and architectural elements, Cohen adds unusual angles and points of view to soften any feeling of rigidity or premeditation. - Though he uses a combination of saturated and muted hues, he is particularly masterful in generating light sources that draw inspiration from Vermeer. But by translating light and shadows into grid-like patterns, he manages to evoke distinctively magical auras. - Elenore Welles, Previews of Exhibitions: Bruce Cohen, ArtScene, Los Angeles, February 2016 - Bruce Cohen, Interior with Halved Peach, 2018, oil on canvas, 54 x 36 inches - #brucecohen #surrealism #hyperrealism #stilllife #interior #painting (at Leslie Sacks Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1zKWFiFpdW/?igshid=e9tjhfb128lr

A great many words have been written about the late American painter R.B. Kitaj, his literary and artistic obsessions and especially about the overriding questions of his sense of identity, which defines so much of his art. Through portraiture Kitaj celebrated his friendships with poets and philosophers and the connections he felt with artists of the past. Among his more complex compositions, his reflections on political, social, sexual and artistic themes provide insight into his innermost concerns. . Quote: Marilyn McCully and Michael Raeburn, Kitaj: Portraits and Reflections, Abbot Hall Art Gallery, Lakeland Arts Trust, Kendal, 2011, page 9 . Artwork info: R.B. Kitaj, Jules Pascin, 2005, charcoal on paper, 30 7/8 x 22 5/8 inches . #rbkitaj #kitaj @rbkitaj_studioproject #drawing #workonpaper #charcoal #pascin #julespascin #fridayfeature (at Leslie Sacks Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtWyXk6FiSe/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1amnx2syq1xxi

#FridayFeature | Donald Sultan ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In the process of translating things from the real world, Sultan discovered the joy of ambiguity: images could take on more than one meaning. The lemon could be an eye-socket, smokestacks could be the stems of flowers, street lamps could suggest tulips, an MiG airplane could look like a fish. Behind many of these images, there are barely disguised erotic associations. It requires no Freudian genius, for example, to see the outline of a female breast and nipple in his paintings and drawings of lemons, or the suggestion of buttocks and thighs in some of the delightful small still lifes of pears and nectarines. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Text source: Ian Dunlop, Donald Sultan, Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago , Harry N.
