Fine art created by Philadelphia area artists.

The Moving Model Workshop

The Moving Model Workshop at The Plastic Club

Bob Jackson is a fine artist able to elevate simple materials like old graph paper and ballpoint pens to an elegant language of signs, symbols, movement and line. The artist sketches quick drawings each less than an inch high as the model moves slowly through a series of athletic poses. The pages quickly fill up with hundreds of tiny croquis. In the historic studio artists draw intensely as the model, Stephanie, makes beautiful shapes in space.

Check the new DoNArTNeWs for more images of Bob Jackson‘s drawings from the Moving Model Workshop and a description of how this video was produced. This video plays in full screen mode for a larger than life look at the drawings.

Susan Stromquist at Off the Wall Gallery in Dirty Franks

Susan Stromquist at Off the Wall Gallery in Dirty Franks

“One of the best reasons to visit ROADS LESS TRAVELED this weekend — if you didn’t make the Opening Reception — is to experience SUSAN STROMQUIST’s amazing installation. Our 3-D space has rarely hosted an installation that is so expertly integrated, narrating, to the extent possible, the complex path Susan has taken in developing her own brand of experimental art. You can see the unique tools — one person last night likened them “something out of Duchamp” — she has used to turn her body into an art-making apparatus. Three major physical creations, a canvas, a scroll and an accordion book, are on display. And a looping DVD of three videos, available for $20, captures vividly the artist at work on three projects: CLIMB, GIVE & KEEP and DRAWN.” Like Off the Wall Gallery on facebook.
