On Thursday, May 30 an exhibition, Color Visions, will open at the hob’art gallery, 720 Monroe Street, Hoboken, NJ.

The exhibition will be open to the public from May 30-June 23, 2013 and by appointment. A reception for the artists will be held on Saturday, June 1, 6-8pm. The artists thank the Monroe Art Center and the hob’art gallery for their support of this exhibition.

Constance Ftera has been concentrating on printmaking for several years, most recently mono prints with a repeatable matrix of intaglio line, adding color on the same plate. This allows experimentation in color, changing the look of the final print.

Howard Berelson-The transition from children’s book illustrator to print maker (mono prints) to artist in residence to digital print maker spanned over forty years. Teaching children of all ages gave Howard a way in which to reconnect with childhood discovery. The Garden Series and Landscape Series (Sky Garden, August’s Garden of Joy, Alien Beauty, and others, reflect that discovery. Recent works continue his present direction of written and illustrated works – part of a book of illustrated poetry in progress.

Ann Taricone Kinney has a camera with her at all times. Living and working in New Jersey she derives much her inspiration and imagery from the Jersey Shore. The images that intrigue her, combine shape and color, time and place, and tell the stories that we share.

Gallery information can be obtained on the website: www.hob-art.org and from the Director, France Garrido, 201.319.1504 or director@hob-art.org

CALL FOR ART – Cell Mates

The Walsh Gallery at Seton Hall University seeks submissions for “Cell Mates,” two distinct group shows that will be on view side by side in adjacent galleries. Curators Jeanne Brasile and Lisbeth Murray will divide the 2,000 sq. ft. gallery in half, creating two separate exhibitions of artwork inspired by cellular forms. The curators seek art that addresses a wide range of topics related to cellular forms to create a discursive exploration into microorganisms and concerns derived from their study.

The goal of the curators is to demonstrate modes of creation inspired by science, in addition to examining how curators using the same narrative framework can come to very different thematic and aesthetic conclusions. While aesthetics are a concern, the curators are particularly interested in how artists incorporate scientific methods into their practice, how artists obscure or pronounce the delineation between artistic and scientific practices, and/or how artists visualize scientific data to create works of art, placing the artist in the role of quasi-scientist. All types of media are eligible.

Exhibition dates are June 2 through July 18, 2013. $15/5 entries.
Deadline: Wednesday May 1, 2013 (receipt date)

“Brushstrokes & Grain”

hob’art Gallery

Thursday, February 28 – Sunday, March 24, 2013
Monroe Art Center
720 Monroe Street, #E208
Hoboken, NJ 07030

Reception: Saturday, March 2, 6-8pm

Artists’ Talks: Gallery Walk Sunday, March 17, 3:30pm

Hours: Thursday thru Sunday, 1-5pm and by Appointment

The Brushstrokes and Grain show emphasizes the contrasting styles and mediums, by the two exhibition artists. Joe Gilmore’s paintings are a lighthearted look at physical and spiritual intimacy within the home, inspired by the eight days he spent without power in the aftermath of Super Storm Sandy. During that time, the artist reflected on two very important lessons: the importance of nesting and what people do during a blackout. Tom Egan’s photography is part of his long term project to document New York City’s underground club scene, especially the Burning Man subculture. Regular parties that spring up throughout Manhattan and it’s boroughs are showplaces for outrageous clothes, exciting performances and flamboyant personalities. The exhibited images represent a series of moments captured in 2012.

Get ready to have fun and a great workout!
This is a beginner level bellydance class which focuses on technique,

archeology
3rdsundaysFebruary 17th – hob’art artists Roslyn Rose, Liz Cohen, Don Sichler and Starr Tucker-Ortega will speak about their art on Sunday, February 17th in the gallery during the {3rd Sundays} gallery walk. Please stop by and meet the artist from our latest show “Archaeology of Color”.
Archeology of Color relates to dialogues between artists and the power of color in artwork, including the freeing of color from objective context to become the subject itself. Layering and collage techniques in some of the artworks examine the idea of remembrances inspired by changes in light and hue. The exhibition will close that evening.
