haaker_flatenIngebrigt Håker Flaten´s creative and highly original bass playing has been highly regarded all over the world and he has done several performances with major international artists such as Evan Parker (UK), Paul Lytton (UK), Joe McPhee (US), Joe Lovano (US), Yusef Lateef (US), Tony Oxley (UK), Iain Ballamy (UK), Dave Liebman (US), Chris Potter (US), Zim Ngqvana (SA), Benoit Delbeq (FRA), Dr.L.Subramaniam (IND), Billy Cobham (US), Jean Luc Pounty (FRA). He has frequently appeared at important international jazz festivals in Den Haag, Liége, Montraux, Athens/Georgia, Cape Town, Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal, Paris, Istanbul, Saalfelden, Nice, Groningen, San Francisco, San Sebastian, Lüc, Nancy, London, Perpignan, Molde, Perth, Kongsberg, Berlin, Houston and legendary clubs such as New Morning in Paris, Quasimodo in Berlin, Ronny Scotts and Pizza Express in London, Knitting Factory and Tonic in New York, Empty Bottle in Chicago, Blue Note in Yokohama and Hemlock Tawern in San Francisco. His musical expression is based on the language of jazz and improvised music, acoustic and electronic, but his interest in rock and ethnic music also shows through his collaborations with the Norwegian rock bands Motorpsycho and Cato Salsa Experience as well as his work through Rikskonsertene. In July 2003 he released his solo-CD "Double bass" on the norwegian label SOFA. He has at the tender age of 33 already managed to establish himself as one of the most important exponents of the younger generation of musicians on the european scene today. In July 2004 Ingebrigt Håker Flaten was awarded Kongsberg Jazzfestival official "Vitalprisen" - the highest award for jazz musicians in Norway.

Observer's Event Horizon

New work by Stacey Neff

Opening reception on Saturday, May 3, 6-8 PM
On view May 3 - June 13, 2008

Art League Houston is pleased to announce the opening of Observer's Event Horizon, an exhibition of new glass works by Stacey Neff, May 3 - June 13, 2008 in Art League Houston's Main Gallery. Observer's Event Horizon is an exhibition of sculptural souvenirs from a fancifully imagined territory of malleable time and space. This is Ms. Neff's first opening in Houston. The opening reception for Observer's Event Horizon is May 3, 2008 6-8 PM, with an artist talk by Stacey Neff at 6:15.

Neff's unusual glass works pair supplies found in automotive/nautical factories with the ancient material of glass, combining multiple units hand blown in a traditional glass style into singular, large forms. Taking the well formed ideas of science on artistic adventures, Observer's Event Horizon explores a frontier of equalized relativity between the macrocosmic and microcosmic worlds. The works included in this exhibition are sculptural snapshots encompassing a panoramic view from the Hubble telescope to the micron microscope, converging between the known and the imagined. For example, The Great Rhombi Cub octahedron and Icosahedrons geometric bases of her Star Seed pieces exist as visually manifested echoes between a star nursery in a far away galaxy and a bacteria on a human heart. Her Europa loop, which references one of Jupiter's moons, describes a world and an orbit, a particle and a wave. Breathing Stone VI, without the anchor of relativity, explores something as large as the landscape of an asteroid, or as tiny as the crevices of magnified pollen, or the spaces between seeds in a pomegranate. Stacey Neff says about her work, "My inspiration ignites at Conscilience, the fusion of art and science. In the words of J.E. Hoke, 'Science may create a vehicle to take you anywhere you want to go, but only myth will give you a reason for going.'"

Of Winter to Spring

New work by Suzanne Manns

Opening reception on Saturday, May 3, 6-8 PM with artist talk at 6:30 PM
On view May 3 - June 13, 2008

Art League Houston is pleased to announce the opening of the exhibition Of Winter to Spring by Suzanne Manns, May 3 - June 13, 2008 in Art League Houston's School Gallery. This exhibition of work emphasizes her individualized and extremely personalized relationship with nature. The opening reception for Of Winter to Spring is May 3, 2008 6-8 PM, with a talk by the artist at 6:30 and music by DJ DelSur.

For a number of years, Suzanne Manns' work has been directly influenced by her garden and the landscape directly surrounding her home. Her Houston Heights bungalow is surrounded by a densely layered and compact urban English garden. Within her prints, Manns balances images from her garden, focusing on shifts of scale, and meditating on the fragile, yet enduring nature of life. Recording bits and fragments from this environ of which she is so intimately familiar, Manns creates highly individualized imagery, filtered through her own physical and psychological perceptions. Rather than being simple portraits of nature, the resulting works become a diary of intimate experience.

Starting with the raw materials and basic utilitarian art forms traditionally found in Asia, such as lacquer coffers, coffins and chests, Oanh has created a series of 16 oversized boxes whose proportions echo those of a burial casket. Rich paintings adorn the lids, combining sensual abstraction with precise figuration. Organic materials including the lacquer resin, stone pigments and precious metals form the palette in which Ms. Oanh has created her work...more

Press Release
On view through December 21

thewood

Eric Michael Jones' digital photographs are inspired by stories - both fairytales and contemporary fiction, such as the work of the Brothers Grimm and Raymond Carter, among others. Some influences in his work are clearly recognizable, while others are not, with the stories used simply as launching points for image making. As in fairy tales, a reoccurring sub-theme runs through the work - an ominously foreboding landscape (the horrible woods, the threatening sea), a place where children go willingly or otherwise, to work out their greatest fears and anxieties. more

ADAPTATION new work by Katherine Veneman
July 13 - August 24, 2007
Katherine Veneman spoke with KUHF's Meghan Hendley at Art League on July 30th about her show ADAPTATION, on view in the main gallery until August 24. Listen

Press Release

VenemanInformed by both painting traditions and the natural and built environments, Veneman's large paintings are complex, with rich multi-layered surfaces that describe a space which is at once illusory and tangible. Carefully drawn lines appear to be ropes and architectural structures, as they are engulfed by waves and swirls as chaos overcomes order. Planes overlap and intersect, blending together or sharply conflicting. Forms dissolve and reemerge, their color, marks and texture altered. The accompanying series of small black and white ink drawings forms a counterbalance to the highly-charged colorful spaces, offering clearly readable glimpses of spatial environments in flux.

Popunation, works by David Chien
Popunation was a collection of large-scale wooden sculpturesclustered in areas around the gallery. The sculptures depicted everyday actions of characters, but with a twist of absurdity. The setup and placement of each piece are akin to that of a carnival sideshow, something that is meant to be gawked at. at.

Inversion
A House installation by Dan Havel & Dean Ruck
Inversion


"The Implosion" Text by Arthur Wortmann, courtesy Mark Magazine,Issue #2, Spring 2006
"In the summer of 2005, an extraordinary structure on Montrose Boulevard in Houston took motorists by surprise. A wooden building had obviously been struck by a passing tornado. Sucked by a raging force from the back of the building, the boards of the facade frantically twisted into what looked like a horizontal chimney that had ripped a hole through a second wooden building sanding several metres behind the first. Passers-by were inescapably drawn to the vortex of the wooden wreckage; if they didn't blink, for a fraction of a second they could see straight through both buildings.

It was not a diabolical natural disaster that was responsible for this scene but a pair of artists, Dan Havel and Dean Ruck. The two wooden buildings - used for decades by the local arts council, Art League Houston, as classrooms and exhibition space - were to be replaced by a new-build project. For the few months that they awaited the demolition crew, they were reincarnated as an architectonic installation. Owing to the lack of a budget, Havel and Ruck erected the work with the materials on hand: dismantling the existing building, board by board, they used the old timber to realize their installation. The project became a kind of exercise in architectonic excavation; they turned the premises inside out. Impossible to illustrate the implosion of a recycling process in a more salient way.

If ever a structure deserved the label 'uncanny', it has to be Inversion House, a building stripped of its soul, devoid of life. Its gaping hole fulfilled the same role as the hall closet in Mark Danielewski's brilliant novel House of Leaves (the space tunnels into a dark and never-ending void) : both were sinister signs of the presence of another dimension. That the installation has now been demolished is an apt part of the picture. As a memory, the image is a haunting reminder that although architecture exists to provide shelter, buildings do not always assure peace of mind."

Vital Surge: the work of Joan Fabian
"Vital Surge aptly describes both Joan Fabian's life and her work. The desire to live is a vital aspect reflected in Fabian's work. Joan's artwork became crucial to her while she was battling cancer because it provided her with a positive focus. The surge relates to spurts of energy, as the way in which Fabian is influenced and energized by the stimulation, motion and culture of busy cities. Joan's artistic forms, full of color and patterns, dance around with this positive energy and they challenge the normal reaction of human instinct. Fabian's travels to Pakistan made her question value systems and the way we judge what we call art as well as what we consider being beautiful."
                                                                                                                      

May 6-July 2
Desert Dream Cities & Desert Mountains
Rendered with thick applications of radiant colors, Livermore's paintings are intensely personal, dream-like explorations of the natural world. Over the past 25 years her subjects have ranged from the ordinary to the sublime, including luminous floral arrangements; the hustler bars and frenetic streets of Juarez, Mexico; and the storied Jornada del Muerto Valley in New Mexico. Annabel uses Juarez, Mexico as her primary subject from early on, focusing on everything from Palm Sunday processions to prostitutes and transvestites in gritty bars. Her subjects are often shadowy yet united with incessant grace. Although no one has actually met Annabel, her oil paintings of dour moutainscapes, luscious flowers and grim street scenes have claimed many enthusiasts and followers.
