Richard MacDonald in Studio

T

his year marks the 21st Anniversary of the premier gallery in Laguna Beach: Dawson Cole Fine Art. For the last twenty years visitors to Southern, CA have experienced this world-class gallery, and have enjoyed the uniquely Californian ambience of its beautiful sculpture garden. With locations in Laguna Beach, Carmel and Palm Desert, Dawson Cole Fine Art has established their reputation as the leading West Coast destination for contemporary figurative sculpture, paintings, and important prints. Visitors will be inspired by the artful presentation of an extensive collection of bronze figurative sculpture by noted American sculptor, Richard MacDonald. Featuring a comprehensive selection of the sculptor’s collected works, from iconic, museum-represented pieces, to the artist’s recent works, which can be seen here first—this gallery is at the vanguard of the Neo-Figurative movement led by Richard MacDonald. Adding rich layers to the visual and collecting experience is the expertly selected presentation of significant drawings, prints, and works on paper by American and European masters. The collection of a focused, curated collection of Early Modernism and West Coast Regionalism sets the gallery apart: offering works by Chuck Close, Richard MacDonald, Wayne Thiebaud, Donald Sultan, Jim Dine, Jian Wang, Jim Lamb, Tom Betts, Carolyn Reynolds, and James Galindo among others. Recently recognized by Modern Luxury Magazine, the gallery was selected as the Top Gallery in the “Best of OC” for two consecutive years. Dawson Cole Fine Art has established itself as a supporter of the local arts and wider community with many charitable efforts to benefit the local art students of the Laguna College of Art & Design, the Boys and Girls Club of Laguna Beach, Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, the Festival Ballet Theatre and many others—most notably donating an iconic work by Wayne Thiebaud to the Laguna Art Museum permanent collection. Sissone, by Richard MacDonald


Phil, by Chuck Close

The 10,000 square foot gallery and outdoor sculpture garden provide a memorable venue for private corporate events or social gatherings, where the fountains play under the stars, and the indoor fireplace creates an inviting atmosphere amidst the art.

For twenty years, this landmark gallery in Laguna Beach has been devel-

Richard MacDonald’s sculpture is known the world over, and his monuments, including Atlanta's 26-foot Olympic gymnast, The Flair at the Georgia World Congress Center, and the 15-foottall Momentum, celebrating the 100th U.S. Open at Pebble Beach take his vision of contemporary figurative sculpture to an audience of millions daily. Scheduled for installation is another major monument for the historic Royal Ballet School in England, which will further broaden his artistic influence. Three Hummers in Gold Sky by Carolyn Reynolds

Art-A-Fair Festival Steps Up Its Game

In its rich 52-year history, Laguna Art-AFair has featured the works of acclaimed artists from around the globe. A juried fine art show, Art-A-Fair is unique among Laguna Beach art events in that it doesn’t have residency restrictions which draws a diverse group of both artists and art forms. As an artist cooperative, each Art-A-Fair participant plays a role in producing the annual exhibit that draws thousands of art enthusiasts to scenic Laguna Canyon every summer. Known as “The Gem in the Canyon,” Art-AFair showcases over 120 art exhibits and a variety of art-related workshops in an enchanting courtyard setting where visitors can enjoy gourmet cuisine, fine wine, specialty beers, spirits and live entertainment. Art-A-Fair exhibitors feature original works across all art mediums including oil, acrylic, watercolor, pastel, charcoal, pencil, drawing,

mixed media, photography, ceramics, wood, glass, jewelry, gourds, leather, sculpture and digital art. Organizers aim to connect every visitor with at least one artist’s work.

Serious Art Lovers Design Homes Around Their Collections Art-A-Fair has achieved great success over the years, but the 2018 exhibit will add a creative new dimension - help festival goers visualize how fine art can be showcased in their own homes. According to luxury real estate experts, 2018 brings an eclectic combination of high-end elegant elements with strong influences from nature and technology. And a house—with art in it—helps art lovers express their own unique personalities.

The Vengo Design Wall will be an opportunity for visitors to explore the latest in luxury redesign as it relates to fine art. Both the display and one-on-one design consultations by Vengoechea will showcase how top-tier furnishings and interior design have long been used to sell properties and how developers and brokers often turn to fine art for that extra layer of je ne sais quoi

Event producers Gina Waggener and Jo Beth Prudhomme are behind the innovative new home design concept which is garnering support from top interior home brands tied to the latest design trends in kitchen, flooring, lighting, wall finishes and furnishings.

Yuri Kuznetsov

Christopher Scardino

The creative duo teamed up with interior design expert Nancy Vengoechea of Vengo Design to create an expansive luxury home display and one-on-one consultations to link fine art and home design. Luxury home design display sponsor UC Lux.com Real Estate, a division of Union Choice Enterprises, will offer advice on how redesign can increase home values along with options for utilizing home equity for improvements. The display at Art-A-Fair - a massive design wall - will be an opportunity for visitors to explore the latest in luxury redesign as it relates to fine art. Both the display and workshops by Vengoechea will showcase how top-tier furnishings and interior design have long been used to sell properties and how developers and brokers often turn to fine art for that extra layer of je ne sais quoi - a quality that cannot be described or named easily. Studio Workshops include; Beautiful Kitchens, Magic of Color, Planning The Space, Furniture Selections, Developing the Design Concept, Great Windows, Walls and Flooring, plus others. “Our new home design element has brought renewed energy and a refreshing outlook among this year’s artists,” says ArtA-Fair president Michael Cahill. continued on pg. 24

Antje Campbell uses the human figure in her bronze sculptures as a canvas to

explore life’s complexities and celebrations. By creating strong, minimal forms that intersect, she communicates her themes, emotions and life experiences.

Working in clay has been Antje’s passion since early adulthood. She enjoys the challenging process of forming a lump of earth, carving, firing, adding unique painterly qualities of slips, oxides and glazes to each piece. She is delighted at the end when opening the kiln and discovering the final results. With this background of working in clay, it has been a natural transition to interpret her figures into bronze. Antje’s education in ceramic sculpture began under the mentorship of Betty Davenport Ford, an artist who was influential in the contemporary clay movement in Los Angeles in the 1950’s. Under her decade long instruction, Antje gained a strong understanding of working in clay and its’ endless possibilities. In addition, Antje holds a formal degree in Fashion Design from FIDM, which gives her the foundation for her use of color and form. Represented by galleries in Europe and the US. Her work has also been awarded recognition in major shows and exhibitions, including the Festival of Arts, Laguna Beach. www.antjecampbell.com

Rockstars of Art Opens in Corona del Mar

Not “your mother’s” art gallery, ROCKSTARS of Art opens with a collection of art deemed non-traditional by a band of rogue artists, led by the namesake RockStar of the Art World, Michael Godard. VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED!

Dale Mathis

“We wanted to bring an edgy, colorful and vibrant new feel of art to the Corona del Mar community”, says Cory Marie Gard, former Corona del Mar High School graduate and gallery director. “We have selected 8 artists who we consider RockStars of Art because of their breakout style and electric energy, giving Orange County and beyond the opportunity to ROCK their WALLS with works that will update and escalate the energy of their home and office environment.” Visiting Corona del Mar last fall, Cory and co-owner Gregory were enjoying breakfast at Rose Bakery Cafe, directly across the street from the new gallery. Upon seeing the “space available” sign in the window, a wager was made which led to a call to the broker. 10 minutes later, we were standing in a space that couldn’t have been better suited to a gallery” states Cory, “and the vision of what it could become started to emerge.” Shaping the notes and instruments in to an Alternative Art Rock song, the gallery bridged in to a venue to not only view and purchase incredible new wave art, but to host your evens or so-

cial gathering. Complete with a Game Room, Wine Room, Kinetic Art Bar and Rock History looking in to your soul from every vantage point, “We want to touch parts of your soul that feel alive and spontaneous”. Cory says, “and don’t be surprised if you’re confronted once again with The Eternal Struggle”. Everyone is invited to the Grand Opening party the night of May 4th, There will be delectables the entire weekend to introduce this unique arrangement of adventurous art in the most beautiful spot on earth to the coolest people anywhere. After studying at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising, Cory ventured through a career of Home Furnishings, Interior Design and Custom Home building before entering the Fine Art arena. “I’m so glad to come home to the place and people I love” says Cory, “…it’s almost unbelievable to be this close to Inspiration Point, Little Corona and the special places where I grew up. To share the progressive artists that Rock My World with friends old and new, I am deeply grateful!”

peated and differing printmaking versions. Of his process Johns elaborated: “My experience of life is that it’s very fragmented; certain kinds of things happen, and in another place, a different kind of thing occurs. I would like my work to have some vivid indication of those differences.” Jasper Johns

Works like “Flag” from 1954-55, utilize the iconic imagery of the American flag which Johns said "the mind already knows,” while his treatment of the image

rom Expressionism to Dada and Minimalism to Pop art, American painter, sculptor and printmaker Jasper Johns has transcended labels while creating a richly layered body of work, spanning from the 1950s to today. An incredibly influential pillar in the history of American modern art, Johns works are currently featured in a powerful exhibit, “Something Resembling Truth,” on display at the Broad in Los Angeles from Feb 10 through May 13, 2018.

F

While Johns has worked in an Expressionistic way, emphasizing the process of painting itself as the true art and often creating many versions of an idea in the mediums of painting, printmaking and sculpture, his often playful, absurd and thoughtful works can be viewed as influenced by the Dada of Marcel DuChamp, Pop art and Minimalism. Johns is often remembered for his striking encaustic, oil and newsprint on wood paintings of the American flag, though he is also one of art history’s most skillful printmakers. Emerging onto the American art scene during the 1950s, Johns has worked alongside and collaborated with such artistic powerhouses as painter Robert Rauschenberg, pop artist Andy Warhol, choreographer Merce Cunningham and author Samuel Beckett. Johns artworks play with the stark and memorable imagery of flags, targets and maps, imagery which he has both painted and reworked again and again with re-

Rodin. In “Painted Bronze,” Johns has entitled a bronze sculpture of two beer cans, a “Painted Bronze” giving away his satirical treatment of the traditionally high art form of bronze casting.

“White Flag” from 1955 creates an even more ghostly effect, like this image that is deeply ingrained on the American- and even world-widepsyches is fading away into an oblivion. The flag, layered in beeswax mixed with white pigment, seems decayed by history, like a ruin of ancient Rome.

Johns’ printmaking works are very well exemplified by pieces like the 1971 “Decoy.” In this work, Johns skillfully utilized the vivid medium of lithogra-

In some of Johns sculptural forms, like “Flashlight” and “Painted Bronze”, the artist is clearly playing with Dada and Pop Art sensibilities which elevated every day objects to the realms of high art. In “Flashlight” Johns has treated the pop cultural image of a flashlight, like a textured expressionistic bronze sculpture, reminiscent of the likes of Auguste Flashlight, 1960

phy to create a painterly, layered and intriguing image, collaged with his iconic image of a beer can, lettering and a figurative sculpture. Additionally, utilizing a variety of printmaking techniques, Johns illustrated writer Samuel Beckett’s 1977 work “Foraides/Fizzles.” This enigmatic collaboration between the artists has been called one of the “greatest artists’ books of the second half of the twentieth century” and features incredible prints by Johns that herald the skill and texture of 17th century Rembrandt etchings with 20th century Dada-esque imagery. Now at age 87, Johns has been called the “foremost living artist” in America, with his remarkable life and work honored at the Broad in Los Angeles in the exhibit “Something Resembling Truth.” In this exhibition about 120 works, divided into thematic chapters, explore the depth of the history of Johns’ life’s work. While Johns may be best known for painting iconic American imagery, over the span of 6 decades, he himself has become an American art icon. www.thebroad.org
