61artennae presents: “Tribal Journey” featuring the work of Artist Catherine Rogers.
For
immediate release – (Miami, FL 31 August 2009)
On the heels of a bright, shiny summer in Miami’s progressive Wynwood
Art District, things are beginning to stir as the artists and art fairs
prep to make their Fall/Winter debut. Gallerists, curators and reps
are busily preparing for short and long-term exhibits that will all
serve as the precursor to what will be a dynamic December for art in
Miami.
On
Saturday, September 12th from 7-10pm, Wynwood 2nd
Saturday Art Walk will launch in full swing and artennae global art
consulting proudly presents their
premier, group art exhibition entitled “Tribal
Journey” featuring Catherine Rogers, Fine Artist
along with several other globally celebrated artists and creatives including
de la Haba, Jackson Lynch, Troy Woods, Barron Claiborne, McKay Otto,
Layla Love, Damani K. Diop & Artifacts by Majestic Lips.
Artennae
global art consulting is an unconventional (consulting and marketing)
tribe, formed specifically to elevate emerging artists from all over
the world.
As
a collaborative, we have assembled a group of “creatives” from all
walks of life, each with strengths designed to form a strong union,
with the goal of highlighting the talented artists and their work outside
of the typical gallery setting.
These
are the times when circumstances imposed on us by destiny actually allow
us to create new and innovative methods to share positive messages with
our fellow man. So it’s natural and perfect that our first exhibit
is a declaration of coming together in support of the arts, which will
not be diminished during this “recession.”
The
artists we’ve chosen in our inaugural show work in varied mediums,
from painting on surfboards, sculpting with found objects, photography
by world-renowned talent, and painting. Diversity is embedded in the
art work, in the languages they speak, the cities where they reside
and the cultures they embrace.
3
of our artists travel the globe as their art form, photographing people
from many ethnicities and cultures, and seeing humanity from a “big
world view”.
The
inspiration for the show’s theme
“Tribal Journey” came from a series of paintings that our featured
artist, Catherine Rogers, created. Her bold and dramatic tribal-influenced
work is a wonderful contradiction to the gentle nature of the soft-spoken
lady from Key Largo who embraces yoga and a good glass of wine. Still
waters run deep for this delicate, powerful flower - more passionate
about painting than anything…and in her 60’s. Once again, coming
together of talent from surprising sources.
There
are many different tribes in today’s world….corporations, social
networking, sports teams, small businesses, non-profit organizations,
Girl Scouts / Boy Scouts, even political parties. We move in and out
of various tribes every day of our lives, joining forces for a common
cause. “Tribal Journey” is a timeless tale of clans or tribes
who band together - moving in unison. “artennae’s top picks
for fall 2009 reads like an e.e. cummings’ homage to humanity’s
renewed sense of honoring the ancient tradition of community” says
Cheryl Moody, a co-founding collaborator.
“Tribal
Journey” is a reflection on returning to the age of
the human bond between those of “like mind” rather than focusing
on the bonds of perceived outer appearance.
