Gallery Nine by Five Fremantle is launching a new model for its operation, and moving away from the traditional commission paid on the sale of work. This zero commission, fee based gallery is just the beginning of a project which the management believes will open up many new opportunities in promotion and development for its member artists. Clearly artists with a good sales record will benefit substantially by receiving 100% of the purchase price of their work, while emerging artists are offered a great promotional platform to test the market and gauge the response of collectors and art lovers. For those who are first to become members of the gallery under the new structure, there will be the considerable benefit of the inaugural exhibition, which we expect to attract considerable attention. The costs of this exhibition will be covered by the gallery. The gallery plans to re-launch under the new model at the end of November and spaces are filling up fast. If you would like more info on the new structure please contact the gallery on (08) 9433 5381 or email us at info@galleryninebyfive.com.au

Description:

Automatic Cities is the first major exhibition to assert and explore the concept of an "architectural imaginary" in contemporary art. The term refers to architecture in the broadest sense, comprising images of sites and cities built and unbuilt, rising from collective experience and imagination. The influence of the architectural imaginary on the visual arts will be mapped in an international context, setting work by prominent, architecturally engaged artists in dialogue with that by emerging practitioners from around the globe.

The exhibition includes new, site-responsive works by 11 artists and one artists' collective hailing from around the globe: Michael Borremans (Belgium) , Matthew Buckingham (U.S.), Los Carpinteros (Cuba), Catharina van Eetvelde (France, born Belgium), Julie Mehretu (U.S., born Ethiopia), Paul Noble (U.K.), Sarah Oppenheimer (U.S.), Matthew Richie (U.K.), Hiraki Sawa (Japan), Katrin Sigurdardottir (Iceland), Rachel Whiteread (U.K.), and Saskia Olde Wolbers (Netherlands).

LCSC Center for Arts & History presents Amy Nack & Earl Swope: Immigrant Shadows: Tracing the Herders’ Legacy (Lewiston): The LCSC Center for Arts & History is pleased to announce the exhibition opening of Immigrant Shadows: Tracing the Herders’ Legacy at the new Gallery location at 721 Seventh Ave on Saturday, November 21, from 4:00 – 7:00pm. The artists, Earl Swope and Amy Nack of Boise will be present at the opening. Wine and beer will be available from La Boheme. Boise artists Earle Swope and Amy Nack have collaborated on an installation entitled Immigrant Shadows: Tracing the Herders’ Legacy celebrating tree carvings (arborglyphs) left by sheepherders in mountain aspens of the West. The installation becomes an interpretive grove of paper compositions representing; carvings, trees and forest canopy. Deftly wielding a utility knife Amy Nack cuts images of trees and leaves into large panels of paper, creating a sculptural landscape of aspen trees. Cutting into the paper simulates the experience of herders cutting into the delicate bark of the aspen. A canopy of branches and restless paper leaves shelters arborglyph castings and tall narrow panels create a fictional mountain grove. The negative space resulting from the cuts cast filigree shadows and reflections and hint at the earlier presence of the solitary immigrant herders. The viewer is invited to consider their own shadow within the grove and to reflect on their ancestral entry to America. Earle has traveled into the mountains of Idaho creating plaster and silicone casts of the herders’ actual arborglyphs. From these casts, Earle creates facsimile castings using cotton paper pulp flecked with aspen fibers. The monochromatic nature of the installation emphasizes the bas-relief of the carvings and metaphorically serves to represent the immigrants who carved into the trees. Throughout American history the immigrant has been relegated to the shadows of society. The artists’ use of paper as a medium epitomizes the ephemeral nature of both the immigrant and the carvings they leave behind. Arborglyphs are temporal as aspens live an average life span of 80 years. The relatively short life of the aspen parallels the generational apprenticeship America requires of her new citizens. In January, 2009, Immigrant Shadows began a university and college tour throughout Western and Eastern Idaho, including the Idaho Historical Museum in Boise and the Nevada Historical Museum in Elko, Nevada. The exhibition was most recently selected to participate in ArtPrize, an international art competition held in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The artists were included in a group of 1262 artist participating in this first time International event. Immigrant Shadows will also be installed in part at Ellis Island in early 2010 as a component of Boise State University’s Basque Studies Program and the Basque History Museum’s exhibition. Immigrant Shadows: Tracing the Herders’ Legacy will run November 21 thru January 15, 2010. The exhibition is brought to the community through King Services Construction and a grant from US Bancorp, as well as the National Endowment of the Arts, and the Idaho Commission on the Arts. The gallery is open Wednesday through Saturday from 11:00am to 4:00pm Admission is FREE, but donations are graciously accepted.
