Podcasts about centraltrak

This is such a great episode mostly for the painters out there! I loved talking the David Linneweh, a painter who also runs the podcast Studio Break, about his background growing up in suburbia and how that feeds into his paintings, his experience working en plein air and photo transfers, his wonderful advice to artists and what he has learned from running a podcast.   David Linneweh received his MFA in painting at Southern Illinois University Carbondale in 2007 and his BFA from Illinois State University in 2002.  His work has been in solo shows including The Peoria Art Guild, Peoria, IL, (2012), The Moberly Area Community College, Moberly, MO, (2012), and Centraltrak, Dallas, TX (2008).  His work has been in numerous group exhibitions including McNamee Gallery, Saint Louis University, St. Louis, MO (2013), The Rockford Art Museum, Rockford, IL, (2012), Brooklyn Artists Gym, Brooklyn, NY, (2011), and Manifest Gallery, Cincinnati, OH, (2010).  He’s completed artist residencies at Art342, Centraltrak, Osage Arts Community, The Kimmel Harding Nelson Center for the Arts, Vermont Studio Center, and Jentel.  His work has been published in New American Paintings four times in (2011,2007, 2005, 2003).  He is the creator of the Contemporary Art Podcast Studio Break and is an adjunct professor in the Chicago area.    David has a two-person exhibition at Heartbreaker in Peoria, IL opening in July and will be featured in Studio Visit Magazine this Spring.

Gabriel Dawe is a Mexican-born artist living in Dallas who utilizes miles of vibrantly-colored sewing thread to create soaring installations that evoke a sense of viewing rays of light. The breadth of his work revolves around the use of sewing and embroidery materials to explore issues of pain, equality and gender roles, but it’s his highly popular Plexus series of installations that has garnered him acclaim worldwide. Gabriel obtained a bachelor’s degree from the Universidad de las Americas in Puebla, Mexico before moving to Montreal to pursue a career in graphic design. In 2008, he relocated to Dallas where he obtained his MFA from the University of Texas – Dallas and was part of the highly-touted Centraltrak residency program. Over the last eight years, Gabriel has installed temporary or permanent works in over 35 private and public institutions worldwide, including the Smithsonian Museum’s Renwick Gallery, Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art and the Amon Carter Museum of American Art where his Plexus 34 is on display in the Philip Johnson designed space until September 2, 2018I recently sat down with Gabriel at his Dallas studio where we discussed his childhood in Mexico, his grandmother’s influence, his life as a graphic designer in Canada, the importance of Centraltrak, experimenting with glass, and his discomfort with heights.
