This painting was documented and that footage was transformed into this video.  My goal is to show some of the behind the scenes processes of making a painting as well as the transformations that can take place in an artwork.

The song “Bitter Suite” by MoPetto was used in this video. Check out more MoPetto Here.

UAG – Kate Brandt Pink

Kate Brandt Pink opens at the University of Wisconsin Union Art Gallery tomorrow (friday march 5th) from 5-8pm

MILWAUKEE—KATE BRANDT PINK, an international group exhibition, will take place at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee from March 5, 2010 to April 2, 2010 in the Union Art Gallery. The art in the exhibition confronts power roles, gender, race, fame, and class issues within the perspective of the greater arts community. It opens with a reception from 5-8pm on Friday, March 5. The exhibition is free and open to the public.

In 1960, neo-Dada artist Yves Klein made a splash at an exhibition by using nude female models as living paintbrushes, making work with his signature color, International Klein Blue. UWM artist Kate Brandt comments on, confronts, and even exorcises the ghost of this “legendary” artist with a group exhibition of visual performance artists all of whom use her self selected shade of pink. In their work, these contemporary artists address ideas of gender, power roles, race, fame, class issues and more in a variety of mediums, including live performances (at the opening reception), photography, sculpture, video, and painting.

Artists include: Kate Gilmore, Ryan Trecartin, Franko B, Stuart Semple, Heather Warren-Crow, Kate Brandt, Kimberly Brandt, Cassandra Smith, A. Bill Miller, Emily Walley, Kristen Olsen, Naomi Shersty, Sarah Holden, Anna Helgeson, Richard Mutz, and many others.

***Heather Warren-Crow invites viewers to participate in her work by documenting her opening night performance using cell phone cameras. Please make her dream come true by posting a short video to YouTube and emailing the link to art_gallery@uwm.edu

Your video will become part of a playlist that will be exhibited at the Union Art Gallery.

Using physical space in animations is almost always fascinating. Playing with 2D and 3D elements and meshing them together with video can result in captivation. Check out this awesome animation by Donato Sansone:
