The Institute of Electronic Arts (IEA) – In Honor of the 10th Anniversary

Robert Brinker and Pamela Joseph will be exhibiting large-scale digital prints on paper and fabric in Beijing in honor of the 10th anniversary of The Institute for Electronic Arts at Alfred University. The show is titled Insatiable Streams and will be at the BS 1 Contemporary Art Center and Zero Field Art Center, both in Beijing. There will be a catalogue produced of the show.

Robert Brinker: Chrysanthemum Series, 2007, Digital Prints, 48“ x 36”.

This series of nine prints are based on actual collages.  The shapes are of chrysanthemums traced from Chinese paper cutouts that have been overlaid on male and female centerfold models. After each chrysanthemum is printed, the image is then hand cut and loosely mounted onto another sheet of paper.

The images of these prints are derived from Joseph’s current series of Postcard Paintings, where body parts are collaged onto postcards of works by famous artists. The image is reworked on the computer and then painted in oils that incorporate collaged elements of digital prints from the original postcards. Finally, the painting is reproduced back into a commercial postcard.

This series consists of over 80 postcards to date, many of which have been translated into paintings. The prints are scanned directly from the original small collages and blown up to a scale of 36” x 48”.
