JUMPING THE SHARK:
PHOTOMONTAGES AND PAINTINGS
BY PETER S. WISE
Some but not all of the works presented here are connected to the theme of “Jumping the Shark.” Hopefully, the viewer will make his or her own determination as to which are and which aren’t. The phrase itself has jumped the shark and become a parody of itself, originally coined to depict the later seasons of the sitcom,”Happy Days” as over the hill, tired, lacking surprise and so on. However, the phrase has stuck with me and many of the images reflect an expanded and readily understandable view of the inevitable deterioration of matter, cultures, relationships, beliefs, logic and really everything else in the known universe. The physical basis for jumping the shark is the second law of thermodynamics, or simply that in the absence of absorbing energy, all things tend to entropy. It’s pretty easy for us to understand but rather more difficult to accept, especially when personally applied to our bodies (aging and eventual death)and mental state (dementia and Alzheimer’s disease being common examples.) But we are not alone and this work seeks to universalize the drift towards entropy of all things and ideas, and not without humor.
Scientists discuss whether our known universe has reached a point when its expansion will end and start contracting to the point it was at 14 billion years ago. Historians debate whether civilizations conform to an inescapable pattern of the proverbial rise and fall paradigm. Marxism declares capitalism is doomed to failure as it careens from one financial crisis to the next and economic inequalities increase. These are all examples of jumping the shark and we can look to less cosmic examples as well – the breakdown of logic in human dreams, the stresses endured by the Donner party in the 1840s that led to cannibalism, or oppositely the chaotic humor of Benny Hill. So, these images may be a celebration of universal law or a lamentation but they do attempt to encourage acceptance of immutable phenomena in which we as human beings have no choice but to comply.
The title piece, “Jumping the Shark,” is based on a Bill Brandt photograph from the early 60s taken in London on the Embankment where one finds the Tate Gallery. Obviously the added shark fin and Dalek from, the British sci-fi series “Dr. Who,” is of my own doing and can be read as a comment on pop culture and its exhaustion or any other way a viewer wants to read it. The practice of enhancing original work like Brandt’s is a hallmark of postmodernism, which in itself declares originality is dead and yes, has jumped the shark. The image itself is self-referential and a closed circuit so to speak wherein movement, the decisive characteristic of life at at least a molecular level, is an endless loop – in other words, dead. I find this humorous to the extent that Karl Marx called history the first time around, “tragic” but the second time around “farce.” I hope people seeing these can maintain some sense of levity as they really are, at one level, just representations of the human condition.
The oil paintings here are not intentionally connected to the themes of the photomontages. Truthfully, I include them because they are a departure from non-traditional means of visual expression and I hope, that conventional painting has a much longer cultural shelf life than the disposable photomontages they accompany. While the montages tend to irony, my paintings of people I like are not ironic in any way to my way of thinking and hopefully balance the former.

DUAL NATURE: across mediums – encaustic plus one
Opening Reception: Saturday March 7, 5-8 pm
Gallery Hours: Saturdays and Sundays, 1-4 pm
Closing Reception: Sunday March 29, 1-4 pm
Participating Artists:
Linda Bigness – Abstract Narratives in oil and encaustic paintings and constructions
Joanne Holtje – Abstract oil paintings and their encaustic interpretations
Doreen LaScola – Relating oil paintings to encaustic through abstract realism
Linda Widstrand – Interpreting nature using shared techniques in encaustic and oil
Neil Wilkins – Acrylic and encaustic mixed media works from the Involutions series
Five artists with very different visual sensibilities have banded together to create “DUAL NATURE – across mediums – encaustic plus one”.
Linda Bigness, Joanne Holtje, Doreen LaScola, Linda Widstrand and Neil Wilkins have embraced the challenge of creating encaustic art works that communicate with art pieces created in other paint mediums.
Free to interpret the challenge in any way they chose, each artist contributes to an exhibit that is both diverse and complimentary. It is bound primarily by the challenge itself.
The artists will be available at their opening reception at the Sprinkler Factory, 38 Harlow Street, Worcester, MA on Saturday March 7, 5-8 pm to discuss their individual methods, discoveries and challenges. The exhibit will also be open to the public during the month of March. Regular gallery hours are on Saturdays and Sundays 1-4 pm.

Opening Reception: Saturday November 2, 5-8 pm
Gallery Hours: Saturdays and Sundays, 1-4 pm
Closing Reception: Sunday December 1, 1-4 pm
Each work of art is an artifact created by hands, hearts and minds, guided by technique and intuition. Each artwork is also an incident, a crashing together of ideas and inspirations fusing with material to create a work of art. This process produces art that stands as a preserved memory of creativity in action.

Gallery 3

Gallery Hours: Saturdays and Sundays, 1-4 pm,
Closing Reception: Sunday, October 27, 1-4 pm
“Textures of the Apocalypse” is Manuel Schroeder’s visual artist statement to the fragile face of the city.
Influences of industry, traffic, vandalism and light change and destroy the omnipresent messages of the capitalistic advertising and marketing strategists who want to push a visual illusory world on people continuously. The varied processes of the decay in quick change let the glamorous colours dull, fragment the pictures and transform themselves in new phenomena with own aesthetics. Inspired by these urbane appearances and based on photography, i research and archive the processes of disintegration of typography and posters in cities and urban spaces.
The resulted photographic and mental archives form the basis for the next artistic process of collage and decollate, painting and reliefs on papers, canvases, wood and other materials in different formats. Another face of the city is created and proposes new questions.
The exhibition shows Manuel Schroeder’s artwork from his “Worcester Art Period” in 2012 in the studio of Elliot Salloway and is dedicated to this great Gentlemen.

Painting for me is physical. I paint on-site and I paint the same landscapes. I hike before I paint. Sometimes I have a plan, more often I don’t, but the point is I have to be in the landscape that I love before I paint in the studio. I find extreme weather exciting, like New England subzero temperatures with a wind chill and foggy summits that block summit views. I’ll paint in any element when I reach the top. Lately I’ve been painting mountains in the form of feelings, experiences, and memories. When I paint in the studio, I use my whole body in each brushstroke as each mark is an expression of myself. Canvas becomes my memory.

“Exploration is in our genes. Throughout history, one of the deepest human impulses has been the drive to explore, encounter, and know the unknown. This basic human longing can be traced all the way back to the most ancient origins of exploration over 60,000 years ago, when prehistoric wanderers first settled the globe. Today’s high rates of global tourism and mass migrations reflect continuity with the restless habits of our ancestors.”
-Vejas Gabriel Liulevicius, Ph.D.
SHOW STATEMENT:
Voyages of Exploration is a celebration of artists from around the world, inspired by a chance meeting in France. Travel and the internet are useful ways to connect communities. What better way to illustrate this connection than through art and photography? This show is about how artists take their experiences and create work that speaks to us all. This is about crossing borders and experiencing something that changes you.
Each artist has a connection to this exchange. Inspired by travel and relationships, and a chance encounter in a train station in Nice, France.
We are very proud to bring together such a fantastic group of international artists. Please learn more about them below.
ARTIST BIOS:
NIKO-LUCKY CLAUSE is a photographer and traveler from Nice, France. A chance encounter meeting Niko at the Nice train station inspired this show. Niko, who was a stranger in the afternoon, but by night, we shared bottles of wine and laughs, we were like old friends. A road trip from Amsterdam to Italy discovering the communities of each place was only illuminated by Niko’s adventure of shipping his motorcycle to Toronto and riding all around the US taking photographs. Marc Blackmer and Michelle May, who are hosting, invited him right there and then for a group show in the US, discovering people, places and Niko inspired them.
SORIN BICA is a contemporary artist based in the Boston area, frequently sought for his unique large scale abstract and figurative paintings. The use of intense color and expressive figures could be seen through-out his work. Sorin Bica was born in Bucharest, Romania. As a self-taught artist, he began his career drawing political cartoons back in his native country. Moved to the USA in 1988 where he was able to fully develop his artistic passion.
AULA AL AYOUBI is from Damascus, Syria and works in Boston. The collages of Aula Al Ayoubi mix different media. Her creations represent portraits of the most iconic women from her childhood, from Egyptian actress Faten Hamama to Lebanese singer Fairuz to the icon of Egyptian music Umm Kulthum. Punctuated with rich and colorful details, her dynamic compositions convey her own emotional feelings in front of these famous people.
The artist uses a bright and bold palette of colors and her collage technique gives her paintings a rich diversity of textures. Aula Al Ayoubi’s works are exhibited in Syria and Kuwait. Her painting is also presented in private collections.
In 2015, she participated in the first international meeting of Mediterranean art, organized by Col·lectiu Mediterrani. Fourteen Spanish, Italian, Syrian, Moroccan and Turkish artists take part in a contemporary style exhibition mixing painting, sculpture, poetry or photography.
In 2017, Aula Al Ayoubi participated in the exhibition Radical Love: Female Lust bringing together nearly 50 women Arab artists around Arabic poetry written by women mainly between the 7th century and 12th century. As a response to President Donald Trump’s ban on travel to the United States, artists anchor their works and illustrations in women’s sexual pleasure.
MARK BLACKMER, co-host, is a technologist, blogger and cybersecurity professional as well as a local American photographer, who travels quite a bit. Marc has a keen eye for interesting linear relationships. His photographs capture life happening amid the order of line, light and shape. Often photographing architecture and its relationship to the land and people, Marc is drawn in by the order in juxtaposition to the chaos. His photographs capture the beauty of place and often, community. Marc has photographed community and life in Israel, France, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Amsterdam, Berlin, Puerto Rico, BVI, Costa Rica, Australia, Argentina, Thailand, Africa, Singapore, Prague, Vienna, as well as around the US.
ANTONIO FONSECA is an artist from Puerto Rico living in the Worcester area. Born in Caguas, Puerto Rico, Antonio has an Associate degree in commercial and illustrative arts and a BFA from ED School of Fine Arts of Puerto Rico. His MFA is from Cornell University. Some awards and distinctions: 1994 Second Biennial of Fine Arts of Casa Roig Museum, Puerto Rico. 1998, best individual showing awarded by the Puerto Rico chapter of the International Art Critics’ Association. 1999 honorable mention “Arte Joven” Ponce Art Museum and an honorable mention in the 30th International Painting Fair in the Cagnes-Sur-Mer Museum. At his second invitation to the International Painting Fair in France he received the third place award year in which Puerto Rico swiped the three main awards. 2011 he received a governmental declaration by the Autonomous City of Caguas and the government of Puerto Rico. Fonseca has exhibited worldwide in countries such as China, Europe and South America and is now known to be one of Puerto Rico’s most valuable contemporary artist. Antonio has been one of the most relevant and respected artists in our community. His intimate work through lines and organic textures representing stories of religion, relationships, nature and desire in a struggle with the tenets of faith and dogma fascinate the eyes.
VLAD BERTE is a Romanian sculptor and photographer from Clu-Napoca. He is an Associate Professor PhD at the Sculpture Dept. – University of Art and Design of Cluj-Napoca. Vlad has shown his work internationally in Lisbon, Portugal, Nebraska, USA, Bratislava, Slovakia and in Liège, Belgium since 2008. Vlad works mostly in granite and creates soft forms of selected objects as well as intricate etchings of world leaders from George Washington to Ceaușescu. His work, which is reminiscent of Constantin Brancusi is all about shape and form and his work in bronze, Crystalline Solid is undoubtedly captivating with a combination of organic metals and shiny angular lines. Vlad’s photographs capture the incredible essence of light and life with a captivating perspective. His colors and compositions are almost as great as his humor. Please check out his IG/vladberte.
BRIAN BURRIS is a local American painter, who we welcome back from a hiatus. Brian’s work is highly sought after. His moody and emotionally charged abstract paintings have caused an “underground stir” in the community. We are thrilled to have him working again and to be a part of this show.
MICHELLE MAY, co-host, is also a local American who is a designer and an artist, she also photographs while traveling.
“This show was a vision of Marc and I, inspired by all of the people we meet, all of the images captured in our lenses and the art we make. We really wanted to share how much meeting people and travel has impacted us as members of the community, not just locally but of the world. Sharing the world through art, photography and music is what people have always done. We want to embolden that idea. My first trip abroad was to Romania, which opened my mind and my heart in ways that would change me forever. Over the years and through other trips and work our network of friends has grown. We know that by overlapping worlds we can create a tighter knit community-globally. We know that art, photography, music, food and dance are catalysts and communicators.
We invite you to share in all the overlapping worlds.

Diagonal Life: Theory and Praxis
April 19, 7:30 – 9:00 PM
“Diagonals are created from the leaning power of hurt verticals,” says Peter Schumann, Bread and Puppet’s founder and director. “The diagonal threatens collapse while always containing the possibility of uprising.” Diagonal Life: Theory and Praxis uses the humblest of means — cardboard legs, paper maché tigers, lightbulbs, pulleys, Beethoven’s “Great Fugue,” lubberland dancing and the daily news — to shed light on some of the possibilities inherant in our current collective precarity.

Throughout history, humans have created exquisite structures where people gather to pray, and to seek inspiration and answers to our deepest questions. We also seek out inspiration in nature. Natural settings have been deemed sacred in numerous cultures since the dawn of creation.
I believe we all receive, or commune, with that aspect of ourselves that goes beyond our known senses, into the realm of spirit.

During the creation of art, the many methods and inspirations of the artist steadfastly refuse categorization. A primal intimacy and drive to reveal, with neither restraint nor direction, exists. Uninhibited speaks directly to this acceptance of daring; to see, to initiate, to develop, without an insistence upon destination. The exhilaration of these ties, among the dialogue and moment, the artist and the flow of materials requires a mind freed of all things constraining.

A common artistic practice, when stuck, is to turn the picture upside down and look at it anew. Often, this can provide a new direction forward. In that spirit, many of these works tip conventional practices upside down – or rather, “down side up”.
We invite you to explore this other side with us. Please join us on March 2 at 5pm for the opening of Down Side Up, featuring the work of 32 intrepid artist-educators of the Worcester Public Schools.
