  • IRON CLAD II: Cast and Painted Works by Jack Craft and Ted Laredo
    July 12 - August 3, 2019

    A two-man exhibition at EXHIBIT/208 will have a backbone of pure iron.

    This exhibition was inspired by a visit between the artists at Laredo's Albuquerque studio, when he was experimenting with micaceous iron oxide flake paintings.

    In works specifically generated for this show, Craft, a sculptor, created a sphere and a cube, each a cubic foot of iron that were coated in pyramid-shaped nail heads, while Laredo, a painter, used iron oxide flake for works that often appear solid black but reflect light in unexpected ways.

    This exhibition was originally presented at West Texas A & M University, Dord Fitz Formal Art Gallery, Canyon, Texas (January to March, 2018).

    non finito is Italian for not finished and it is the organizing theme for this group exhibition.

    throughout history, artists have been making and sometimes abandoning works. tucked in corners, caves, storage units, and behind stacks of actualized works are the orphans, existing in a purgatory of incompleteness.

    for some artists, it's some day maybe..., a challenge to re-visit at another time; for others, these pieces are stubborn and obstinate, representative of failure and confusion; for others, these pieces represent ideas and directions that the artist was unable to move through or follow; and for some these pieces were wonderful little reveries that stand as jumping of points for other ideas and works that became highly successful.

    gallery hours: thursday - saturday 10 am – 4 pm

    Angela and Ted met in studio art classes at the University of Texas in Austin in 1988, and they have been working side by side ever since.

    Angela Berkson has been investigating universal shapes and their transmutation by way of her encaustic and acrylic paintings for over twenty years. These new paintings incorporate the notion of “content drift” which is a technical term that describes the shifting of internet content that existed at one time in one place, but after time, a website’s identifiers may evolve, expire or fail for one reason or another. The content is no longer accessible, or it ceases to be representative of the original content. This notion of “content drift” is suggestive of memory lapses or other ways our universe shifts and evolves.

    Ted Laredo produces saturated color field paintings and line drawings that are purposefully minimal, primarily concerned with the act of experiencing his works without the distraction of deciphering meaning or content. Ted’s works are layered with acrylic paint, phosphorescent pigment and glass micro beads that read different ways throughout the day and then shimmer with an ethereal inner-light at night.

    Angela and Ted share their two studios, often working side by side. They don’t collaborate on work, per se, instead they maintain their individual explorations in a parallel universe. Sometimes viewers find similarities in their work, a cross-pollination of ideas, images and colors that can be pleasurable to ponder.

    michael warren contemporary (mwc) presents

    in day to night bates, brinker, and laredo explore psychology in the act of viewing and relationships of material with the immaterial. each artist employs light (and winter’s lack thereof) in their work.

    shadow study: haley bates makes site-specific sculptural works that rely on light in the spaces they inhabit. bates’ works draw attention to the ephemeral nature of ownership – as the light diminishes in the space, so do the shadows they produce.

    mind maze: robert brinker paints vivid abstractions that weave ribbons of color in and out of neutral grounds. brinker’s paintings hint at appropriated narratives, but ultimately are boundless mazes that only hint at their true complexity.

    afterglow: ted laredo produces saturated color fields and line drawings that are purposefully minimal. laredo is concerned with the act of experiencing his works without the distraction of deciphering meaning or content. mono-diptychs, laredo’s works are covered in phosphorescent pigment and glass micro beads that read different ways throughout the day and then shimmer with an ethereal inner-light at night.

    during the month of january, mwc will also showcase many of the gallery artists in the additional viewing rooms in the back gallery. mwc consigns riverhouse editions, an extensive collection of fine art prints from career artists practicing all over the world.

  • biography

    ted laredo was born in laredo, texas on the us/mexico border in 1966.

    laredo produces saturated color field paintings and line drawings that are purposefully minimal, primarily concerned with the act of experiencing his works without deciphering meaning or content.

    laredo’s works are layered with acrylic paint, phosphorescent pigment and glass micro beads producing works that reflect, shift and shimmer with an ethereal inner-light.

    laredo attended the University of Texas at Austin where he received his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in 1990. He received the Clare Hart Degolyer Memorial Fund Award from the Dallas Museum of Art in 1990 and the Jury’s Choice Award, Art of Albuquerque 2002, presented by Magnifico at the Albuquerque Museum in 2002. He has lived in Albuquerque, New Mexico since 1991.

    Ted Laredo will be exhibiting art work that riffs on the lucent properties of various media including galvanized steel, phosphorescent cotton twill tape and glass micro beads.

    The pieces in the exhibit incorporate cotton-twill tape arranged in geometric configurations such as honeycomb cells and cube forms, some affixed over micro bead coated panels and painted with phosphorescent acrylics, some affixed to galvanized steel panels with magnets. During the day, the reflective bead-coated surfaces have a luminous, almost pearlescent glow. At night, the painted geometric forms emit a soft light of their own, captured earlier in the day from the available light striking their surfaces. "The reflective glass beads came out of the idea of having a reflective quality without electricity," Laredo said. "Something that's ethereal, something you can't quite grasp but is pleasing to the eye." Several pieces, including one called naphthol red eclipse and another called cobalt blue mono-diptych, are panels without twill tape that appear monochromatic under direct light sources but change dramatically when the lights are off. (Abatemarco, Michael, “Trick of the Light; The Protean Art of Ted Laredo,” The Santa Fe New Mexican, Pasatiempo Magazine, January 2011.)

    Ted Laredo was born in Laredo, Texas in 1966. He attended the University of Texas at Austin where he earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in 1990. He received the Clare Hart Degolyer Memorial Fund Award from the Dallas Museum of Art in 1990 and the Jury’s Choice Award, Art of Albuquerque 2002, presented by Magnifico at the Albuquerque Museum in 2002. He has called Albuquerque, New Mexico home since 1991.

    Exhibit/208 is an art gallery that plays a unique role in the New Mexico art scene. Owned and managed by three Albuquerque artists, the gallery provides an exhibition venue for contemporary artists working at a professional level and is dedicated to providing exposure and sales opportunity for these artists. Exhibit/208 installs shows that strain the sales requirements of mainstream commercial galleries. The gallery does not “represent” artists and encourages interested collectors and galleries to contact the artists directly.

    524 Haines NW
    Albuquerque, NM 87102
    505.228.3749
    Hours: Thursdays & Fridays 12-5 and by appointment.

    SCA is located one block south of I-40 between 5th & 6th.

    Featured Artists:
    Steve Barry, Angela Berkson, Rebecca Blankley, Stephanie Brunia, Cauldron of Awen, Erin Currier, Kristin Deiner, Jennifer Hudson, Lynn Johnson, Christopher Knerr, Ted Laredo, Stephanie Lerma, Tim Mullane, Larry Bob Phillips, Photosynthesist, Linda Mae Tratchaud, Greg Tucker, Jennifer Vasher, Christine Wallers

    The Finite Passing of an Infinite Passion is a group show featuring the work of 20 contemporary artists mixed with religious artifacts and ephemera, curated by Laura Ratcliffe and Danielle Rae Miller.

    In choosing art for the exhibition, the curators sought not to “critique” religion, or question it, although there are several works that do. They did not seek a multicultural balance between representations of many religions, nor did they seek work that teaches, preaches, informs, or holds true to any particular set of beliefs.

    The exhibition is not meant as an anthropological study. Instead, Ratcliffe and Miller chose artworks they felt express a form of spiritual longing that works within some standards of traditional religious iconographies and art historical references.

    The exhibition title was taken from Wonderlandby Joyce Carol Oates. Laura Ratcliffe and Danielle Rae Miller co-curated several exhibitions in the early 2000’s, including Bittersweet, All Americans Are Soldiers, Synesthesia, and Dirty Weekend.

    This is their first joint curatorial project in 10 years.

    New work by Ted Laredo incorporating line, color, glass micro beads and phosphorescent paint.

    Ted Laredo's use of phosphorescent acrylic paint and glass micro beads invites viewing in a multitude of light conditions: in the dark an "equal but opposite" experience of the same work is achieved. In his mono-diptychs , Laredo employs reflective glass micro beads and deep-hued monochromatic acrylic on panel. Writes Laredo: "The solidity of the monochrome gives way to an ethereal inner light." His geometric wall-drawings -necker's cube ; honeycomb cells - are constructed in cotton twill tape painted with phosphorescent acrylic. They appear three-dimensional; they fluctuate in perspective, and seem to float in negative space.

  • LAND/ART New Mexico Book Release

    June 16, 2010

    LAND/ART was a large-scale collaboration organized by 516 ARTS, exploring land-based art, involving over 25 organizations during 6 months during 2009 in Albuquerque, Santa Fe and Mountainair. The project examined relationships of land, art and community through exhibitions, site-specific art works, lectures, performances, tours, excursions, films and a culminating book published by Radius Books. The book was released June 16, 2010 and will be distributed internationally through DAP.

    Ted Laredo realized two pieces for the project. One indoor project, room, for 516 Arts in Albuquerque, New Mexico and one outdoor project, billboard, at THE LAND/ an art site in Mountainair, New Mexico.

    LAND/ART was made possible in part by The FUND at Albuquerque Community Foundation.
