Zhen-Huan Lu is an American artist of Chinese descent. After receiving a degree from the Department of Stage Design, Shanghai Theatre Academy (famous for its Western-style landscape painting training program), he was appointed to teach painting and stage design there. In 1986, he relocated to the United States after receiving an invitation to give his first solo exhibition in New York.

Zhen-Huan Lu鈥檚 disciplined background in life study, western painting techniques and both western and eastern aesthetics, led to his development of a unique American style of poetic realism that aims to make visible the invisibles through his skillful portrayal of familiar scenes and objects. His training also led him to develop equal skill in watercolor, egg tempera, and oil painting; three disparate and difficult media to master.

Although people are never depicted in his landscape paintings, Lu鈥檚 keen interest remains in human life and emotions; whether it be rocking chairs on the porch on a lazy afternoon or a pair of oars against an aged beach house, human spirit is always present. Through his masterful technique, Zhen-Huan Lu captures a world beyond the obvious with close-ups and exquisite details.

Zhen-Huan Lu鈥檚 paintings have been exhibited in museums and galleries throughout the United States and China.

Fashion and the Figure: A Sketching and Drawing Visiting Artist Workshop

Fashion and design inspire me. The figure and dress have become my creative voice, my way of expressing emotions using the language of color, line and composition. Figure drawing feels like home to me, sketch books fill my studio and sketching every day is an obsession! My works on paper are evidence of my love of line drawing, pen and ink. My figure paintings are more about emotion than anything else. I love the concept of taking a fashion illustration and elevating it to a large scale, fine art painting on canvas.

Assistant Professor Deborah Hutchinson invited Andew Hayes to lecture about his work and teach a workshop for 石榴直播 art students.

Andrew Hayes grew up in Tucson, Arizona and studied sculpture at Northern Arizona University. The desert landscape inspired much of his early sculptural work and allowed him to cultivate his style in fabricated steel. After leaving school, Andrew worked in the industrial welding trade. While living in Portland, Oregon, bouncing between welding jobs and creating his own work he was invited to the EMMA collaboration. This one-week experience was liberating for Andrew and he was encouraged by his fellow collaborators to apply to the Core Fellowship at Penland School of Crafts. During his time as a Core Fellow, Andrew was able to explore a variety of materials and technique. Surprisingly, the book became a big part of this exploration. In this work he faces the challenge of marrying the rigid qualities of metal with the delicacy of the book page.

Statement:
"The book is a seductive object to hold and smell and run your fingers through. I am drawn to books for many reasons; however, the content of the book does not enter my work. The pages allow me to achieve a form, surface, and texture that are appealing to me. The book as an object is full of fact and story. I take my sensory appreciation for the book as a material and employ the use of metal to create a new form, and hopefully a new story."

Mr. Hayes' lecture will be followed by a workshop he'll instruct during studio sculpture classes of Deborah Hutchinson and Keith Smith. The workshop will be followed by indivitual critique sessions with students on Wednesday, March 21, 2018.

Peter Bahouth's medium is stereoscopic three dimensional photography, a process that was developed in the 1830s. Bahouth designs his own viewers, often incorporating sculpture, sound, or signage, as an invitation to look 鈥� to observe the photograph outside the present context. Like looking through a hole in a fence, it is a peek behind the surface that requires the active choice and participation of the viewer. Looking into the viewer in this way also removes all other external visual information. This focus of visual perception through the display and onto an image where depth and space are intensified is intended to create a more personal experience with the subject. By totally isolating the visual experience as well, there is a sense of being projected into the image and into another place and time.

Wednesday, February 14, 2 p.m. in VA115.

 

Film industry sculptor Chris Reynolds joined Allen Peterson's 3D Class discussing the use of his sculpture skills in his job.  Chris has worked in the film industry working on set designs for such blockbuster films as, Guardians of the Galaxy II, and the Netflix TV series, Stranger Things.
