SUMMARY:Maunderings by Tonya D. Lee
DESCRIPTION:In this exhibition\, artist and Monmouth University Art and Design faculty member\, Tonya D. Lee presents a collection of multi-discipline work that explores the abstraction of nature and environment through the combination shapes\, patterns\, moments and pauses that are derived from passive spaces\, fleeting thoughts and changing winds. Location and process are in a conversation about ephemeral moments of beauty. Using a multi-disciplinary process of combining painting\, drawing\, collage\, construction\, and digital media\, the obsessions with materiality explore form and color as an echo of the present overlapping past presents — form and color negotiating to exist as object and subject.

SUMMARY:Oceanids by Joseph Coscia Jr.
DESCRIPTION:Oceanids are some 3000 nymphs in Greek mythology who watch over fresh water: rain\, clouds\, lakes\, springs and rivers\, as well as pastures\, breezes and flowers. They are the daughters of Oceanus and Tethys. Coscia\, the Chief Photographer at the Metropolitan Museum of Art has spent countless hours with classical sculptures\, photographing them in various settings and seasons. He focuses on the qualities of light on sculpture in changing conditions\, and the shifting effects of natural light on stone surfaces. His photographs of museum pieces explore elements of the art outside the context of the museum setting. \nHis recent work draws on Man Ray’s solarization techniques. This effect reverses the shadow areas and transforms the sense of weight and volume of the objects\, so that they appear suspended in air or water. The forms are evocative of earthly creatures or fossils; photographing and printing them using recreated old photographic techniques removes time specificity\, so that they also are suspended in time. \nCoscia\, Jr. received his MFA from Hunter College in 1989 and his BFA from Kutztown University of Pennsylvania in 1982. His photographs have appeared in numerous publications and museum books\, most notably Light on Stone\, a photographic essay published by Yale Press in 2004.

SUMMARY:Rare Wildlife Revealed: The James Fiorentino Traveling Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Artist James Fiorentino of Hunterdon County\, NJ\, has won national acclaim for his ability to create uncanny likenesses of people. The youngest artist ever inducted into the prestigious New York Society of Illustrators\, James uses his self-taught watercolor expression to paint some of the most recognized faces in the world\, from sports icons and presidents to Nobel Prize winners and CEOs. His award-winning art is showcased in museums\, galleries\, and private collections across the globe\, and his story has been told on national television and in the pages of magazines and newspapers. \nFiorentino uses his trademark detail and realism in watercolor to paint New Jersey’s most endangered and vulnerable wildlife species. His evocative artwork inspires viewers through his life-like depictions of rare wildlife in their natural surroundings. His paintings truly bring wildlife to life on paper\, and in doing so\, his art helps to educate and engage viewers about the precipitous declines that many of these species have undergone. \n“Though their painting styles differ\, Fiorentino is adept\, like Neiman\nwas\, at drawing\, which is of course the most fundamental skill required\nto succeed as a figurative artist. Very few wildlife artists that I know\nof can handle the human figure in convincing fashion. Fiorentino has\ndistinguished himself as a wildlife artist with skill and versatility\nthat positions him above the rest in this regard.” \nIn keeping with his expanding body of work\, James is a signature member of the Society of Animal Artists and Artists for Conservation in addition to the American and New Jersey Watercolor Societies and the Salmagundi Club. He also serves as a trustee for The Raptor Trust and D & R Greenway Land Trust\, both in New Jersey. \nRare Wildlife Revealed: The James Fiorentino Traveling Art Exhibition is sponsored by Omni Distribution\, LLC\, Flying Fish Brewing Company\, Merrill G. & Emita Hastings Foundation\, Studio 7 Fine Art Gallery\, and Somerset Patriots. \nThis exhibition is presented in partnership with Conserve Wildlife Foundation

SUMMARY:Sheba Sharrow
DESCRIPTION:Through a vigorous and poetic hand\, her work reflects on brutality and simultaneously pays homage to the animating power of solidarity\, warning us: Remember\, history’s tragedies repeat. \nBorn in Brooklyn in 1926 to Russian-Jewish immigrant parents\, Sheba Sharrow grew up in Chicago and earned her BFA at the Art Institute of Chicago\, studying with Boris Anisfeld and Joseph Hirsch. She continued her studies at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts and earned an MFA at the Tyler School of the Arts at Temple University. She has been considered part of the “Chicago School” of imagist painters\, fitting generationally into the “Monster Roster” group of artists from that city\, including the most well-known of her classmates to lead the charge of image and ideas over pure abstraction\, Leon Golub and Nancy Spero. A resident of Cherry Hill\, New Jersey\, Sharrow died in 2006. \nIn the dominant milieu of Abstract Expressionism beginning in the 1950s\, which actively rebelled against identifiable “meaning\,” Sharrow remained grounded in a humanist tradition and a social context. Curator and writer Alejandro Anreus placed her “in the company of Kollwitz\, Beckman and Orozco\,” and writer Amy Fine Collins linked “her sensibility to German Expressionism.” \nSharrow’s unique style of storytelling and her occasional use of poetic text stand her apart. Her artistic intentions were deeply intellectual. “As long as the world is going the way it is going\, I cannot stop doing what I have been doing\,” Sharrow told The New York Times in 2002. She lamented\, “We cannot seem to get it right.” \nThe works will be on loan from both James Yarosh Associates Fine Art Gallery and the Estate of Sheba Sharrow as well as from institutions such as the Jersey City Museum of Art and private collections.

SUMMARY:NATURE AND NURTURE - Mother/Daughter Artists: The Paintings of Cheryl Griesbach and Claudia Griesbach-Martucci
DESCRIPTION:After working almost 20 years as an illustrator with her husband Stanley Martucci\, in 2000 Cheryl Griesbach began creating a body of paintings based on her interests in European 18th and 19th century still-life\, botanical\, and landscape art. Cheryl’s painting technique was derived from Flemish painting that she had explored as a student at The School of Visual Arts where she is now on the faculty since 1985. Her method includes the manipulation of segments of Northern European paintings and incorporating that imagery in building a new landscape\, like a stage. Cheryl has received many awards\, including last year’s best in show at the Monmouth Museum’s 38th international juried awards show. \nCheryl’s daughter Claudia\, having grown up with both parents as artists\, gave her an innate inclination to explore her imagination and develop knowledge of oil painting.  Admitted into The School of Visual Arts\, her parents alumni\, Claudia in her third year first began to primarily use oil paint as her medium to illustrate the 18th century fairy tale Donkey Skin by Charles Perrault.  Claudia graduated with honors and was then accepted into the Masters Program\, Illustration as Visual Essay\, with a limited class of 20 students. With her background in Illustration and skills in using oils learned from he mother\, all of Claudia’s paintings tell a story. Her end of the year show paintings began to carve out some of the subject matter she wanted to explore\, “that behind every exquisite thing that exists there is something tragic” a quote from Oscar Wilde’s Portrait of Dorian Gray. Claudia is currently working as a painting assistant to the artist Jeff Koons\, while pursuing her own personal work.
