The Guardians of Time were arrested by police at the St. Mark’s Square in Venice and taken into custody. Has anyone observed, photographed or filmed the seizure of the four life-sized red sculptures “Guard Time” on Wednesday afternoon August 31st, 2011?
We ask your assistance by sending photos of of the arrest.
The red giant sculptures were carried by four policemen to the nearby police station on Piazza San Marco.
Time Guards “Madonna” light sculptures are made by the artist Manfred Kielnhofer. Please send your photos to info @ lightart-biennale.com.

A Work in Progress for the West Coast Drawing Show

Well, it is a challenge.  I am trying to put drawing back into my work and yet it is still assemblage.  I guess now this would be called mixed media.  It is for the upcoming September exhibit by West Coast Drawing to be at the San Diego Art Institute.  Here it is, a work in progress titled Fortune Teller.

Art Imitates Art

Today I discovered a Cuban artist, Cesar Santos, who takes historic paintings and puts them in contemporary terms.  He is an excellent painter with references to art you will recognize.  Have a look! at http://santocesar.com/

The Sketchbook Project

I finally finished the sketchbook on the theme "In Five Minutes."  It has been sent to the Brooklyn Art Library and will tour the US soon.  Wanna take a look?

I love this and think it's worth watching, I think.  It's about reconnecting art and faith and one artist's impact he is having in doing so.
