Sam Seaman-- a slice of reality Sam Seaman has been a painter for nearly 4 decades. Born in England, Seaman has spent the past 3 decades as a Mexican citizen and most importantly as one of its most esteemed interpreters of Mexican life. As a disciple of the same teachers who taught David Hockney, Sam’s paintings can be referred to as Minimal Realism. They are painted with meticulously smooth strokes and are characteristically filled with light so that the scene isn’t overwhelmed with detail. His images are expansive even in their most reduced dimensions and offer the viewer a near abstracted, basic understanding of the spaces in which they unconsciously move and dwell. Galeria/Atelier will be hosting a cocktail reception for Mr. Seaman Saturday, August 1, 2009 from 6-9 PM. Please join us.  Seaman, Mist, oil on canvas, 1995  Seaman, Office, acrylic & oil on canvas 1986 |

COLLAGE & ASSEMBLAGE—PAST & PRESENT The history of reusing the old to make something new is perhaps as old as humankind. It speaks to the inner recycler in all of us and at the same time stimulates a creative impulse so basic that surely, during the early days of mankind, was the backbone for survival. The present day application of this innate talent still never ceases to amaze, from Dali’s combination of baguettes and doll parts to the current show at Galeria/Atelier with San Miguel artists Patricia Mahan and Dan Matarazzo’s and New York City artist Joan Hall’s highly narrative collage and assemblage work; there is always something new being made with the old in which the viewer can revel.

LOZANO: ANALOGY OF REASON & TALLER JESUSA The young, classically trained sculptor, Manuel Lozano has prepared his second solo show for Galería/Atelier titled, Analogy of Reason. The sculptures in this show are in many ways a follow-up or digestif, if you will, to his first show at the gallery in 2007, Introspection of the Trivial. Lozano presents a reinterpreted form, more loose, but always staying true to anatomy. The patinas he has chosen in this new body of work is the most obvious divergence, non-traditional bronze colors chosen to intensify the expressions and to mark a change in his creative rhetoric.
