swimming pool redux

*SPLASH!*: a sudden disturbance to the otherwise quiescent free surface of a liquid (usually water). The disturbance is typically caused by a solid object suddenly hitting the surface. Think of a splash from a water droplet, it rises into a beautiful crown of sparkling water that also envelopes us in a fluid cocoon of freshness and energy.

Paul Aho (Florida), Mark Dixon (Canada), TJ Norris (Oregon), and Sara Stites (Florida) are all exploring various abstract forms, from the man-made to those produced in nature. In each instance the artist has created a unique vision through personal creativity. Dixon and Norris have created richly patterned works-on-paper, while Aho and Stites have worked along similar paths on paintings. In all, they provide a highly unique selection from which to view.

Till Könneker (Switzerland) has a well-known practice of creating silhouette drawings, here done on hand-made Japanese paper. These delicate works are powerful in both imagery and presentation. He develops his work in an explorative and playful manner, always ready to trust chance.

Bill Pusztai’s (Canada) poetic photographs reveal his interpretation of the four muses. “Embodying the allusive muses, this quartet of classically composed nudes is a statement about statements, art about sex, soft-core porn about literature, and homage to one of the unsung heroes of culture and gender theory.” (Photographic images include nudity.)
