Gallery360 Presents:
The Art Of The Frame
A show featuring 15 artists culled from the life of one
frame maker for an experiment of reverse engineering a framed work of art.
The projects premise, conceived and executed by framemaker Eric Tollefson,
is simply the reversal of the traditional process of creating a piece of
art and then taking it to be framed. Each piece starts with a frame that
is custom designed and built for each artist, based not on a particular
piece of art but on their body of work and life as an artist.
It is through the reversal of this process that we can explore questions
of inspiration, artistic collaboration and the role of the frame and frame
maker as an engaged aspect of the artistic process.
Featured Works:
 |
5” wide paduk frame with inlayed pieces of ebony that arc across the surface
paired with the tempestuous and layered imagery of Saint Paul artist Tacoumba Aiken.
|
 |
Tall and narrow moulding with a soft buttery off-white gesso finish
paired with Saint Paul artist Dan Beers’s soft overlapping panoramic photographs.
|
Stanford White inspired quarter sawn white oak mortise and tenon portrait frame with
a small engaged shelf paired with the strong and honest portraiture of Saint Paul
artist Stuart Loughridge.
Flat and thin bird’s-eye maple pitted with small aluminum rod scattered across the
surface paired with the colorful abstract gouache of Minneapolis artist Melanie Pankau.
June 25th, 7 to 10pm (show runs June 25th thru July 31st.)
