Life figure painting demonstration with guest artist Stephen Bauman

Stephen Bauman demo

The Romero Hidalgo Artists’ Studios and NFX Studios will be honored to host two days “Live figure painting demonstration/ Sight-size approach” with Stephen Bauman. We will be privileged to hear and see more about Stephen’s academic sight-size method of painting. He will discuss his palette organization, setting up your model, background, light conditions, setting up your canvas, sight-size measurements process, proportions, and value as color. To Stephen, skill in drawing is fundamental, and among the most important assets a painter can possess. In his four years as a student he worked to understand the relationship of drawing to painting in the same way his teachers at the Academy understood it. As an instructor in the Intensive Drawing Program since 2007, by teaching the principles of drawing as they were handed down to him, he feels he has learned as much as he has taught, and hopes to transmit the same to his students.

Date: August Saturday 29 and Sunday 30, 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.

admin — Sun, 26 Apr 2009 04:29:51 +0000

March 24 – April 30, 2009

The Dahesh Museum of Art and Syracuse University Art Galleries have formed a partnership, which will include the museum organizing several exhibitions annually from its own collection of 19th-century art in the academic tradition, complemented by works in the University’s rich collection, for presentation at the Palitz Gallery at Lubin House, as well as at the SUArt Galleries in Syracuse.The launch of this collaboration is scheduled for New York City this spring. From March 24 – April 30, a focused selection of the museum’s finest works will be featured in the exhibition In Pursuit of the Exotic: Artists Abroad in 19th Century Egypt and the Holy Land. Curated by David Farmer, the exhibition explores how artists in that era depicted their expanding world. The most exotic destinations for Europeans at that time were Egypt and the Holy Land, which, for centuries, had been difficult to reach. Egypt offered a mysterious culture and monumental environment, while the Holy Land combined a historical, religious connection with European tradition and an extraordinary visual “otherness.”
