Annette Coleman The Artist's Voice

Sparks fly when different disciplines collide. Visual artists respond to poets and spoken word artists create works based on paintings. Join us as we discuss the intersection of visual art and poetry. Poets will join us with their works and how they find inspiration in visual art. Ekphrasis: Using Art to Inspire Poetry is a tradition that goes far back in time....The earliest and best known example of ekphrasis is the long description of the shield made by Hephaistos and given to Achilles by his mother Thetis. (The passage is found in Book 18 of the Iliad.) Our artist/poets witll share their work here tonight. Woo Hoo!

Creating Great Community Through Art Activism Creating community through art is a topic that we have explored in the past and are returning to it tonight. What has the social media contributed to community building? What about other means of creating community amongst artists as well as the greater community outside? What are your successes and how do you create community in your community? Why do more than just your art? As painters, sculptors and creatives how do we help make connections in our communities?

Annette Coleman & Marj Hanhe host: Ekphrasis, poetry & visual intersection With Boulder Arts Week aproaching and the NoBo Art District hosting spoken word artists on First Friday this radio show will explore the connections that poetry and visual art share. Ekphrasis, a descriptive work of prose or poetry, a film, or even a photograph may thus highlight through its rhetorical vividness what is happening, or what is shown in, say, any of the visual arts, and in doing so, may enhance the original art and so take on a life of its own through its brilliant description.

“Making abstract art is like standing naked without the support of imagery to hide behind”. –Suzanne Frazier, contemplative artist. Abstraction in art indicates a departure from reality. The departure from accurate representation can be slight, partial, or complete. Abstraction exists along a continuum from early in the 20th century. How do you view abstraction? Is it really easy? We’ve all heard, “my five year old could do that.” Do we read forms in the work even if there is no intent by the artist? Who is your favorite abstract artist? How do you view abstraction? Is it as easy to do as it looks? We’ve all heard “my five year old could do that.” Do we read forms in the work even if there is no intent by the artist? American Abstract Artists was founded in 1936 in New York City, at a time when abstract art was met with strong critical resistance. Have we moved on from abstraction to other art forms more relevant to today?

Reinforced Sight Vision strain reduction can improve creativity, and creativity can reduce vision strain With Co-Hosts: Suzanne Frazier & Amy Seltzer  The general population underestimates vision in its strength, and overestimates sight in its weakness.  An artist places high demands on their eyes, and has an intimate relationship with sight.  Creativity is linked to the ability to move thoughts, which is closely tied to physical mobility of the eyes.  Two discrete locations are ordained for stimulation of the visual cortex, to initiate the creative process.  The relationship between mobility and conflict resolution is negotiated before the creative process can begin.  Listen for the mini-exercise that you can perform anywhere.

For tonight's show we will use artist quotes to jump into what is the Language of Art and how do we craft an individual vocbulary that speaks to our creative vission. Join us live to practice your language, this is your time to talk about your work in your athentic voice. Craft your words as well as your vission. Here's a few artists and how they talk about their work or art: “One day I’m satisfied and the next day everything seems bad.” (Monet) “As artists, we do much better trying to keep things simple. We do better to compare ourselves solely to ourselves. Self-inventory is useful, while self-condemnation is not.” (Matthew Dibble) “The results is what counts.” (Monet) “These are not paintings in the usual sense; they are life and death merging in a fearful union.” (Clyfford Still) “An artist must be rooted in his own time.” (Courbet) "The job of the artist is to always deepen the mystery." (Francis Bacon) "What a genius, that Picasso. It's a pity he can't paint." (Marc Chagall) “To grow in art you need to be a rugged individualist who pilots your own spaceship.” (Robert Genn) "Art is a lifetime matter.” (Edgar Payne) Sponsored by: 88 88ArtLook, 8888ArtLook LisaBellMusic.com Guest host: SuzanneFrazier.com AnnetteColemanArtist.com Prerecorded Artists: Tiffany Miller Russell WildlifeInPaper.com ClaudiaRoulier.com

Today's show topic is Politics and Art. How do current events and politics affect your artwork? Are there topics you feel are too controversial to address in your art? What is the role of art in creating discussion around  current issues? Is there a certain style or genre you feel lends itself more to political work? What kind of positive or negative fall out has resulted from addressing a hot topic in your work? Guest host Matt Sesow whose current show "Trickle Down" at Access Gallery is a nod to the buzzwords and posturing Matt sees everyday from his studio in Washington DC. Each day in July Matt takes a headline from the Washington Post and paints an entire painting based on the headline. Matt will help facilitate the discussion and touch on his own experiences. "While some of his images might be considered brutal or brutish in the same way as, say, Francis Bacon, they are only real life with the beauty secrets stripped away, the cover girl make-up stuffed back into society's compacts. They are the skeletons, out of the closet, with the raw meat still attached. Sesow may very well be the most important artist working today. His paintings are explosions of color. Punk rock energy paired with the symbolism of alienation dressed in the finery of a rainbow. As he says, he is trying to create something that is funny, political and chaotic. In that quest he has been successful on a grand scale.

ART AS ENERGY: Making A Spiritual Connection With Your Audience It's our guest hosts' belief that when an artist creates there is a transfer of energy from the artist to the canvas. When a prospective customer says to the artist/gallery owner etc. "It speaks to me" in reference to a particular artwork, they are in fact responding to the energy.- Joseph Swenarton Artist contributors: Joseph Swenarton,www.swenartonfineart.com AnnetteColemanArtist.com  SuzanneFrazier.com Jim Caldwell, ArtworkNetwork.com Sponsored by: 88 88ArtLook, 8888ArtLook LisaBellMusic.com
