SUMMARY:The Cardboard Show
DESCRIPTION:Monmouth University\, in conjunction with Parlor Gallery is thrilled to kick off the year with a captivating art exhibition that transcends traditional boundaries. Prepare to immerse yourself in a world of limitless imagination at the much-anticipated Cardboard Show\, an extraordinary celebration of free-form and experimental creativity. \nThe Cardboard Show is the result: a collection of large-scale sculptures and forms in three distinct voices\, united by medium\, friendship\, and a commitment to a playful approach to creating art for its own sake. These three artists sequestered themselves in Parlor Gallery last January and opened the doors to the public a month later to share their fantastical and unique cardboard creations in an immersive type of presentation. For the continuation of this project\, the artists will follow the same practice of collaborating in the same space at the same time\, building these wonderous creations on site starting January 16th\, 2024\, and will continue to construct and design the exhibition until the opening night on February 9th\, 2024. \nDemo and Meet & Greet:\nThursday\, March 21st. Demo from 3-4 and continuation of the Meet & Greet from 4 – 6. \nOpening Night Reception: Friday\, February 9th from 6-9pm. In addition to the opening reception\, there will also be an artist meet & greet and informal artist talk during the exhibition. \nUnveiling the Magic:\nThe Cardboard Show is a testament to the power of collaboration. Three visionary artists—Porkchop\, Bradley Hoffer\, and Jason Stumpf—invite you to witness the evolution of their fantastical creations. Having sequestered themselves in Parlor Gallery last January\, the artists opened their doors to the public a month later\, sharing the enchantment of their unique cardboard world. \nCreating Wonders in Real-Time:\nAs part of the ongoing project\, these artists will once again unite under one roof\, infusing life into their cardboard wonders starting January 16th\, 2024. Witness the magic unfold as they construct and design this extraordinary exhibition\, culminating in the grand opening on February 9th\, 2024. Join us on a journey where art transcends boundaries\, fueled by the collaborative spirit of three local artists and friends. In addition to the cardboard sculptures\, each artist will also be exhibiting a selection of each of their respective work. \nAbout the Artists: \nBradley Hoffer is a multi-disciplinary artist\, designer\, carpenter\, and maker of original and preconceived concepts. Living and working most of his life in NJ; he received a BFA in sculpture from Mason Gross school of Visual Art at Rutgers. Bradley’s distinct style/work is recognizable using continuous line along with a balance of colors. For this show at Monmouth University\, he is exploring a new complex level of layers in three dimensions. Cardboard is the medium that is being used to accomplish the new sculptures. Bradley is also revealing a collection of paintings that have been in the works for the past 6 years. \nJason Stumpf is multidisciplinary artist based in Asbury Park\, NJ. A woodworker for over 30 years\, his work ranges from sculpture and furniture to cabinetry and wooden boats. His work is influenced by a fascination with structure\, minimalism\, and materiality.  Jason furniture designs often take inspiration from archaic forms and techniques. Those influences are expressed through a minimalist\, modern design ethos. His sculptures stretch that practical design aesthetic into abstracted forms and ideas. \nPorkchop is a multi-disciplinary artist from New Jersey. He has an MFA in Sculpture from VCU and a BFA in Fine Arts from University of the Arts in Philadelphia. Porkchop has established a great presence through his magnificently scaled murals\, including the extensively documented scenes he composed along the Asbury Park Boardwalk in conversation with the sea. Narrative is a prevalent theme in his work. Denizens and visitors to Monmouth County have been enjoying Porkchop’s vibrant and colorful artwork and murals for years\, but in most recent manifestation\, the artist strips his works of his normally vivid palette and instead employs intentionally ritualistic and graphic monochromatic designs and symbols accented with Gold. Influenced by ancient history\, mythology\, religion and literature\, the artist Porkchop sources out\, manipulates\, and casts familiar objects. He then painstakingly recreates their surfaces giving them a new existence into a dark and curious storyline. The application of paint into his intentional ritualistic designs followed by flawless coats of glossy resin is an act of pure precision and care\, like the work of a surgeon or mortician. There are often unexpected but pleasant marriages of imagery and object. By stripping these pieces of his usual vibrant palette\, Porkchop’s choice of black & white emphasizes the narrative in the works\, which becomes difficult to ignore. Presenting these pieces in symmetry creates an alter that pulls the stories altogether.

SUMMARY:SOLD OUT - Learn the Art of Ukrainian Egg Decorating
DESCRIPTION:Come celebrate the spring at Monmouth University with this unique opportunity to learn the seasonal ancient art known as Pysanky. Pysanky\, also known as Ukrainian eggs\, is an ancient folk tradition that has been passed down for thousands of years. This meditative and communal experience is unlike any other art process and for many this workshop marks the beginning of a spring time family tradition that can be passed on and enjoyed for years to come. This tutorial will cover the history and traditions surrounding Pysanky\, a demonstration\, and independent practice session. The instructor will provide a variety of eggs\, dyes\, and tools. Participants will turn real eggs into works of art using a wax resist method similar to batik. A great deal of patience and concentration is required to complete a single egg\, but it is very rewarding to reveal your hard work when the wax layers are taken off. In-person attendance will be extremely limited. \nNo prerequisite skills are required. Please bring a container or old egg carton to take home your creation. ages 18+
