FRANK & CO

This week’s FRANK & CO featured artist is Timothy Gaewsky - - - Follow him at @timothy_gaewsky - - - My current paintings are inspired by a personal nostalgia for 8-bit and 16-bit video games that I played growing up in the 1980’s and early ’90’s. The use of retro video games as source material became a logical avenue to investigate ideas of memory, sentimentality, and nostalgia. I’m interested in the ways we tend to have skewed memories of our past, or more specifically, the way memories from our childhood form recollections of an idealized past. I start the process by playing an array of original Nintendo and Super Nintendo games, taking screenshots from different stages of games. I then use Photoshop to layer visual assets from different games to construct an amalgamated and modified game environment. This template is transferred onto the painting surface and becomes a point of departure, allowing for a transformative creative process to happen at the easel. While these new hybrid landscapes become settings for my own developing narratives, some visual elements may appear familiar and the original game source recognizable. However, the constructed landscapes never actually existed in the older video games, perhaps causing a faulty memory or a quasi-nostalgic experience for those who might have enjoyed playing these games from that era. I like to view each painting as a proverbial screenshot of a point on a map to an ever expanding world I’m creating for myself. - - - Images courtesy of the artist

New Changes to Indiana Green Exhibition - - - In 2020, Indiana Green will be organized by Artdose Magazine. - - - About Indiana Green - - - Indiana Green started in Sheboygan, Wisconsin in 2010. It was curated by artist, Frank Juarez, as a way to pay respect to artists that supported him. What was supposed to be a one-year exhibition gradually grew into an annual exhibition gaining the attention of artists living and working in Wisconsin. From 2013-2019, Frank and Melissa Dorn co-curated this highly anticipated exhibition. - - - Since 2017, Indiana Green has been traveling across Wisconsin with a new roster of artists every year. To date, it has featured 74 artists. - - - The 2020 roster of artists will be announced in early January. This exhibition will be hosted by Ripon College at the Caestecker Art Gallery. - - - @riponcollege #exhibition #indianagreen #wisconsin #artists #frankjuarez #artdosemagazine

Things are moving in the right direction for our 2020 Social Club Gatherings Series. Our seasons starts April 2020 and ends December 2020. We are still looking for more venues to host. Host must be an art-related business.
