Artwork Network's November 2011 Exhibition:
Stuart Clues - "Somewhere Quiet": Visit Artwork Network during the month of November for a display of bold landscapes all the way from Tasmania, Australia. Award-winning painter Stuart Clues has spent the last year preparing the "Somewhere Quiet" collection especially for an international exhibition at Artwork Network.
"We all have places we like to spend quiet time," the artist says. "This was the essence of this collection of work. For me that quiet place is usually associated with water. My island has a similar feel to parts of Colorado with large lakes, wild rivers and deep gorges. My works tries to capture the play of light on water and the serenity of these special places. These places are often vast expanses where the sky touches the horizon and they often provide perspective and peace."
Linda Gleitz's - "Capistrano II": The "Capistrano" series is a musing about social structure, and what it means to be both a singular entity and a part of a larger network of individuals. The artist wants to know, "Can a random assortment of people bond together over one piece of artwork?"
Composed of forty-two squares, each ten inch canvas depicts a small "blue bird of happiness", and when assembled together on a grid, forms an image of three larger birds. The pieces are to be purchased individually ($150 each), and then are scheduled to be reunited one year after the exhibit. Each of the art’s purchasers are invited to share the story of where their “bird” has ended up and what experience they had being part of the "big picture". After the pieces are reunited in 2012, they return to their original purchasers for good. Gletiz says, "My hope is that the patrons will communicate with one another, and maybe continue to flock together now and then but who knows? My little birdie is a social experiment... Can a group of random people who have nothing else in common form some sort of flock?"
