(Catching up on photos from Iceland)
Reykjavik is a remarkably eclectic mix of old and new. Its a city that sees no contradiction in keeping to its unique roots and traditions while boldly reaching out to the worlds artists, of all stripes, to come and experiment.
Frustrated with graffiti 'tagging' of this building, in an industrial space of Reykjavik, the owner approached Guido Van Helten to add his art to the building in the hopes that it would deter the spray can bandits. That was 2013, and it certainly looks to have worked.
Interesting story, as a local paper tells it, he selected the image from a photo of a movie from the 1960s, because he thought it matching his classic style. As he was working on it a woman passing on the street stopped in her tracks and exclaimed 'that's my mother.' Turns out she was the daughter of the actress from the film.
The Australian artist originally came to Iceland for a two-month artist residency program. As a kid, in Melbourne, he was arrested five times for his graffiti tagging. He decided to go to university and focus his talent. Now, the only thing that's arresting is his magnificent work.
If you google his name you'll see many examples of his work. To think that all this cost the owner of the building was materials and a place for the artist to stay for the duration of the project. I hope his remuneration is now commensurate with his talent.
But that was then, after a fire accidentally set by two teenagers in April 2003 gutted the four-story, Romanesque-style building that since 1885 has covered a downtown block.
Now, after a three-year, $10 million project, the Carlisle will reopen today with office space for Adena Health System on the first floor and 32 urban-loft apartments for the medical students in the hospital’s physician residency programs on the other three.
On the National Register of Historic Places, the Carlisle is easily identifiable by the trademark tower that juts more than 100 feet into the sky and its fancy mansard dormer windows. It’s prime real estate at the heart of the town square, across from the Ross County Courthouse in a city rich with history because it was Ohio’s first capital.

At the Archie Bray Foundation for the Ceramic Arts - Helena, Montana
The Archie Bray Foundation for the Ceramic Arts (also known as "The Bray") is a public, nonprofit, educational institution located 3 miles from downtown Helena, Montana, United States.
It was founded on the site of the former Western Clay Manufacturing Company in 1951 by brickmaker Archie Bray, a philanthropist and avid patron of the arts. Bray intended it to be "a place to make available for all who are seriously and sincerely interested in any of the branches of the ceramic arts, a fine place to work."
Although Bray died in 1953, his foundation survived the 1960 closure of Western Clay and in 1984 purchased the abandoned brickyard building and kilns. Today the Archie Bray Foundation for the Ceramic Arts is internationally acclaimed and listed on the American National Register of Historic Places.
The artist residency program is the core of the foundation. Rudy Autio, and Peter Voulkos, were the first resident artists in 1951.[3] Their professor at Montana State College, Frances Senska, friends with Bray, encouraged them to take advantage of his clay studio. To pay their way, they worked in the brick factory during the day and created their own pottery in the evenings. They built the first building for their new residency program in the summer of '51.

Monster Drawing Rally is a live drawing event and fundraiser featuring over 100 artists.
Demystifying a process that usually takes place in the privacy of the studio, the Monster Drawing Rally allows spectators to observe artists in the act of creation in the public domain. In keeping with SPACES' mission to provide a public forum for artists, the Monster Drawing Rally sets the stage for extraordinary interaction.
Providing the basic necessities of the drawing practice—pencils, charcoal, pens, markers, ink, and paper—SPACES creates the context while the artists create the content of the drawings. The evening will consist of one-hour drawing shifts that each feature approximately 30 artists drawing simultaneously. As the drawings are completed, they will be hung on the walls and made available for purchase for $65 each. The Monster Drawing Rally provides a unique opportunity to watch a drawing come to life, and to purchase a work of art minutes after its completion. Proceeds from the event provide direct support for SPACES' exhibitions and residency programs.

Roly Poly is native tumble weed which flourishes on the flood plains of the Barcoo during good seasons. The plants dry off and then tumble along, gathering into large spheres, which get caught along the fence lines.
The roly poly was created from old fencing wire found in abundance in paddocks where once there were many sheep. This oversized sculptural roly poly is a metahpor for the past, the vastness of time and space, and the ability of the Barcoo River landscape to consume man's attempt to tame it, by simply rolling up rusty old fence wire like tumble weed.
This metal sculpture was created in Blackall under an artist in residency program as part ofthe 2007 Blackall Heartland Festival using the theme 'Ice on Water'

Family Church is on mission to make disciples of Jesus in the places where we live, work and play. We are continuing a legacy of people committed to taking the gospel—the good news that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, was buried and raised from the dead—to the ends of the earth.
We were founded as the First Baptist Church of West Palm Beach in 1901 when there were fewer than 1,000 people living in the city. A small group met first in a home, then in the city’s reading room and then in a donated building on Clematis Street. As the church grew, we changed location and acquired buildings and property to accommodate the growth. Our current downtown worship center was built in the year 1965. Over the years, buildings have come and gone but our church has reinvented herself to continue spreading the gospel in South Florida.
This mission is more important now than ever before. There are an estimated 1.4 million people in Palm Beach County and 96% of them remain unconnected to God and His church. When Pastor Jimmy Scroggins came as our Lead Pastor in 2008, he brought to us a vision to plant 100 neighborhood churches. We want to more effectively go out to reach people rather than expecting them to come to us.
We are growing as a multicultural, multigenerational and multisite church. The name “Family Church” incorporates this vision and has allowed us to plant campuses across Palm Beach County and beyond. Our church planting residency program trains bi-vocational campus pastors as well as other pastors and ministry leaders in areas such as worship, assimilation, adults, students, kids and operations. These men and women are planting churches all over South Florida—turning a vision into a reality.
Each Family Church campus has been launched by a group of courageous individuals who are willing to go and make disciples. God raised up our first church plant, Family Church Abacoa in October 2010, out of a partnership between Family Church Downtown and Central Baptist Church. Our first Spanish-speaking campus, Iglesia Familiar Downtown, was launched in January 2011 and expanded in April 2014 when we partnered with Centro Familiar Cristiano to form Iglesia Familiar Greenacres. We are intentionally reaching out to the fastest-growing demographic in our area — those whose heart language is Spanish.
Family Church West was launched in October 2013 to reach our western communities, and Family Church Sherbrooke joined them to the south in October 2014. Then in March 2015, believing they would be better together, Family Church Abacoa partnered with Palm Beach Community Church to become Family Church Gardens. Continuing to pursue the vision of planting 100 neighborhood churches, Family Church Gardens launched the first Family Church “grandbaby,” Family Church Jupiter, in October 2015. We all partnered with the Church in The Farms and Harvest Bible Chapel in October 2016 to launch Family Church in The Farms.
God is still writing our story. There is no master plan other than His. We constantly challenge each other to be His ambassadors, joining God in the work He is doing to reconcile broken people to Himself. At each campus, we are committed to teach the Bible, build families and love our neighbors. We are on mission to be the church OUT THERE, helping people discover and pursue God’s design.

HCS! I think this falls under a cliche somewhat. "On the road again"
Boy bff is currently interviewing for residency programs all over the country so he's back on the road tomorrow to another place. This was his idea..well, the cliche/song title was so I just had to make it work somehow. Thank goodness old school Mickey was there to save the day ;)

I am truly excited to present my new visual project 'In/Voluntary Limitation'
It's part of this year's Water Tower Art Residency program, which went online because of the extraordinary conditions around Covid 19.
The mentorship program provided by the festival was a great experience and I am so excited to connect with amazingly talented artists from all over the globe.
The best thing about the project is that the sound was provided and complemented by a special cut of a very special live performance by Krāllār ( krallar.bandcamp.com/ )
100 percent natural pigments and found objects on wall.
I am currently in Turkey, participating in the Babayan Culture House Residency Program in the Cappadocia Region. More info here: www.dustofamerica.tumblr.com

Family Church is on mission to make disciples of Jesus in the places where we live, work and play. We are continuing a legacy of people committed to taking the gospel—the good news that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, was buried and raised from the dead—to the ends of the earth.
We were founded as the First Baptist Church of West Palm Beach in 1901 when there were fewer than 1,000 people living in the city. A small group met first in a home, then in the city’s reading room and then in a donated building on Clematis Street. As the church grew, we changed location and acquired buildings and property to accommodate the growth. Our current downtown worship center was built in the year 1965. Over the years, buildings have come and gone but our church has reinvented herself to continue spreading the gospel in South Florida.
This mission is more important now than ever before. There are an estimated 1.4 million people in Palm Beach County and 96% of them remain unconnected to God and His church. When Pastor Jimmy Scroggins came as our Lead Pastor in 2008, he brought to us a vision to plant 100 neighborhood churches. We want to more effectively go out to reach people rather than expecting them to come to us.
We are growing as a multicultural, multigenerational and multisite church. The name “Family Church” incorporates this vision and has allowed us to plant campuses across Palm Beach County and beyond. Our church planting residency program trains bi-vocational campus pastors as well as other pastors and ministry leaders in areas such as worship, assimilation, adults, students, kids and operations. These men and women are planting churches all over South Florida—turning a vision into a reality.
Each Family Church campus has been launched by a group of courageous individuals who are willing to go and make disciples. God raised up our first church plant, Family Church Abacoa in October 2010, out of a partnership between Family Church Downtown and Central Baptist Church. Our first Spanish-speaking campus, Iglesia Familiar Downtown, was launched in January 2011 and expanded in April 2014 when we partnered with Centro Familiar Cristiano to form Iglesia Familiar Greenacres. We are intentionally reaching out to the fastest-growing demographic in our area — those whose heart language is Spanish.
Family Church West was launched in October 2013 to reach our western communities, and Family Church Sherbrooke joined them to the south in October 2014. Then in March 2015, believing they would be better together, Family Church Abacoa partnered with Palm Beach Community Church to become Family Church Gardens. Continuing to pursue the vision of planting 100 neighborhood churches, Family Church Gardens launched the first Family Church “grandbaby,” Family Church Jupiter, in October 2015. We all partnered with the Church in The Farms and Harvest Bible Chapel in October 2016 to launch Family Church in The Farms.
God is still writing our story. There is no master plan other than His. We constantly challenge each other to be His ambassadors, joining God in the work He is doing to reconcile broken people to Himself. At each campus, we are committed to teach the Bible, build families and love our neighbors. We are on mission to be the church OUT THERE, helping people discover and pursue God’s design.

Heading to N. Georgia this Friday to see if any Fall color is left. I may be a week late, but we'll see.
This old mill is part of the Hambidge Center, an artist colony in Rabun County, Georgia. From their website:
"As one of the first artist communities in the U.S., the Hambidge Center has a distinguished history of supporting individual artists in a residency program. The Center also continues to act as a steward of its extraordinary 600-acre setting in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
The Center was created in 1934 by Mary Hambidge, who established the artist enclave and sustainable farm in memory of her artist husband, Jay Hambidge (1867–1924). After a brief career as a performer on vaudeville stages (Mary was a world-class whistler who appeared with her pet mockingbird Jimmy), she discovered weaving and eventually found her home among Appalachian weavers in the North Georgia mountains.
In the early days of Hambidge, she employed local women to create exceptional weavings that would one day be featured in many exhibits including the Smithsonian and MOMA. Later she broadened the scope of the Center by inviting artists for extended stays. After her death in 1973, the Center evolved into a formal and competitive residency program open to creative individuals from all walks of life."
World-class whistler with a pet mockingbird? Maybe I've missed my calling . . .

100% Acrylic Art Guards
"I think crochet, the way I create it, is a metaphor for the complexity and interconnectedness of our body and its systems and psychology. The connections are stronger as one fabric as opposed to separate strands, but, if you cut one, the whole thing will fall apart.
Relationships are complex and greatly vary situation to situation. They are developmental journeys of growth, and transformation. Time passes, great distances are surpassed and the fabric which individuals are composed of compiles and unravels simultaneously."
Agata Olek Biography. The SPLAT! of colors hits you in the face, often clashing so ostentatiously that it instantly tunes you into the presence of severely cheeky humor. A moment later the fatigue of labor creeps into your fingers as a coal miner's work ethic becomes apparent. Hundreds of miles of crocheted, weaved, and often recycled materials are the fabric from which the wild and occasionally wearable structures of her fantasylands are born.
Olek was born Agata Oleksiak in Poland and graduated from Adam Mickiewicz University in Poland with a degree in cultural studies. In New York, she rediscovered her ability to crochet and since then she has started her crocheted journey/madness.
Resume sniffers may be pleased to know Olek's work has been presented in galleries from Brooklyn to Istanbul to Venice and Brazil, featured in "The New York Times", "Fiberarts Magazine", "The Village Voice", and "Washington Post" and drags a tail of dance performance sets and costumes too numerous to mention.
Olek received the Ruth Mellon Award for Sculpture, was selected for 2005 residency program at Sculpture Space, 2009 residency in Instituto Sacatar in Brazil, and is a winner of apex art gallery commercial competition. Olek was an artist in an independent collective exhibition, "Waterways," during the 49th Venice Biennale. She was also a featured artist in "Two Continents Beyond," at the 9th International Istanbul Biennale.
Olek herself however can be found in her Greenpoint studio with a bottle of spiced Polish vodka and a hand rolled cigarette aggressively re-weaving the world as she sees.
13th annual D.U.M.B.O. Art Under the Bridge Festival® (Sept 25 to Sept 27, 2009)
www.dumboartfestival.org/press_release.html
The three-day multi-site neighborhood-wide event is a one-of-a-kind art happening: where serendipity meets the haphazard and where the unpredictable, spontaneous and downright weird thrive. The now teenage D.U.M.B.O. Art Under the Bridge Festival® presents touchable, accessible, and interactive art, on a scale that makes it the nation's largest urban forum for experimental art.
Art Under the Bridge is an opportunity for young artists to use any medium imaginable to create temporary projects on-the-spot everywhere and anywhere, completely transforming the Dumbo section of Brooklyn, New York, into a vibrant platform for self-expression. In addition to the 80+ projects throughout the historical post-industrial waterfront span, visitors can tour local artists' studios or check out the indoor video_dumbo, a non-stop program of cutting-edge video art from New York City and around the world.
The Dumbo Arts Center (DAC) has been the exclusive producer of the D.U.M.B.O Art Under the Bridge Festival® since 1997. DAC is a big impact, small non-profit, that in addition to its year-round gallery exhibitions, is committed to preserving Dumbo as a site in New York City where emerging visual artists can experiment in the public domain, while having unprecedented freedom and access to normally off-limit locations.

Family Church is on mission to make disciples of Jesus in the places where we live, work and play. We are continuing a legacy of people committed to taking the gospel—the good news that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, was buried and raised from the dead—to the ends of the earth.
We were founded as the First Baptist Church of West Palm Beach in 1901 when there were fewer than 1,000 people living in the city. A small group met first in a home, then in the city’s reading room and then in a donated building on Clematis Street. As the church grew, we changed location and acquired buildings and property to accommodate the growth. Our current downtown worship center was built in the year 1965. Over the years, buildings have come and gone but our church has reinvented herself to continue spreading the gospel in South Florida.
This mission is more important now than ever before. There are an estimated 1.4 million people in Palm Beach County and 96% of them remain unconnected to God and His church. When Pastor Jimmy Scroggins came as our Lead Pastor in 2008, he brought to us a vision to plant 100 neighborhood churches. We want to more effectively go out to reach people rather than expecting them to come to us.
We are growing as a multicultural, multigenerational and multisite church. The name “Family Church” incorporates this vision and has allowed us to plant campuses across Palm Beach County and beyond. Our church planting residency program trains bi-vocational campus pastors as well as other pastors and ministry leaders in areas such as worship, assimilation, adults, students, kids and operations. These men and women are planting churches all over South Florida—turning a vision into a reality.
Each Family Church campus has been launched by a group of courageous individuals who are willing to go and make disciples. God raised up our first church plant, Family Church Abacoa in October 2010, out of a partnership between Family Church Downtown and Central Baptist Church. Our first Spanish-speaking campus, Iglesia Familiar Downtown, was launched in January 2011 and expanded in April 2014 when we partnered with Centro Familiar Cristiano to form Iglesia Familiar Greenacres. We are intentionally reaching out to the fastest-growing demographic in our area — those whose heart language is Spanish.
Family Church West was launched in October 2013 to reach our western communities, and Family Church Sherbrooke joined them to the south in October 2014. Then in March 2015, believing they would be better together, Family Church Abacoa partnered with Palm Beach Community Church to become Family Church Gardens. Continuing to pursue the vision of planting 100 neighborhood churches, Family Church Gardens launched the first Family Church “grandbaby,” Family Church Jupiter, in October 2015. We all partnered with the Church in The Farms and Harvest Bible Chapel in October 2016 to launch Family Church in The Farms.
God is still writing our story. There is no master plan other than His. We constantly challenge each other to be His ambassadors, joining God in the work He is doing to reconcile broken people to Himself. At each campus, we are committed to teach the Bible, build families and love our neighbors. We are on mission to be the church OUT THERE, helping people discover and pursue God’s design.

When we stopped at the Sou'wester Lodge last week, it struck me that it was a time capsule of Portland as it was when I moved there in the late 70s. The spirit of the 60s was alive and well then. It was still possible run into the counterculture here and there. Well, that's all gone, as is the "Keep-Portland-Weird" culture of the 90s made popular by Portlandia. Fortunately, there's a little piece of Seaview that will be forever seventies just down the road.

Corey and I were relocated to Lafayette, LA for her Family Medicine Residency program. I have been bad about exploring the area around me. While the sunsets have certainly been better I was able to catch a good one.
Hi! & Happy New Year!
I'm excited to offer the opportunity in 2017 to host three artists at my cabin in the beautiful Driftless region of SE Minnesota this year to produce place-based works that they will share with the community. I hope that my flickr pals and contacts will consider applying!

Marfa is a town in the high desert of far West Texas in the Southwestern United States. Located between the Davis Mountains and Big Bend National Park, it is also the county seat of Presidio County. The population was 2,121 at the 2000 census.
Marfa was founded in the early 1880s as a railroad water stop, and grew quickly through the 1920s. Marfa Army Airfield (Fort D.A. Russell) was located east of the town during World War II and trained several thousand pilots before closing in 1945 (the abandoned site is still visible ten miles (16 km) east of the city). The base was also used as the training ground for many of the U.S. Army's Chemical mortar battalions.
Despite its small size, today Marfa is a tourist destination. Attractions include the historical architecture and classic Texas town square, modern art at the Chinati Foundation and in galleries around town, and the Marfa lights.
Amateur etymologist Barry Popik has shown[where?] that Marfa is named after Marfa Strogoff, a character in the Jules Verne novel Michael Strogoff and its theatrical adaptation; the origin was reported in the Galveston Daily News on December 17, 1882, after the Marfa railroad station was established but before Marfa received a post office in 1883.
The Handbook of Texas states that the wife of a railroad executive reportedly suggested the name "Marfa" after reading the name in the Fyodor Dostoevsky novel The Brothers Karamazov.[
Marfa is in the Chihuahuan Desert
Marfa is located at 30°18′43″N 104°1′29″W / 30.31194°N 104.02472°W / 30.31194; -104.02472 (30.311863, -104.024779)[4]. According to the United States Census Bureau, Marfa has a total area of 1.6 square miles (4.1 km²), all of it land, the city is located in the Chihuahuan Desert, a notably underdeveloped region of about 140,000 square miles (~362,600 km²). There is less than one person per square mile in the area.[citation needed]
[edit] Modern art and minimalism
Hotel Paisano and the Presidio County courthouse
In 1971, Donald Judd, the renowned minimalist artist, moved to Marfa from New York City. After renting summer houses for a couple of years he bought two large hangars, some smaller buildings and started to permanently install his art. While this started with his building in New York, the buildings in Marfa (now The Block, Judd Foundation) allowed him to install his works on a larger scale. In 1976 he bought the first of two ranches that would become his primary places of residence, continuing a long love affair with the desert landscape surrounding Marfa. Later, with assistance from the Dia Art Foundation in New York, Judd acquired decommissioned Fort D.A. Russell, and began transforming the fort's buildings into art spaces in 1979. Judd's vision was to house large collections of individual artists' work on permanent display, as a sort of anti-museum. Judd believed that the prevailing model of a museum, where art is shown for short periods of time, does not allow the viewer an understanding of the artist or their work as they intended.
Since Judd's death in 1994, two foundations have been working to maintain his legacy: the Chinati Foundation and Judd Foundation. Every year The Chinati Foundation holds an Open House event where artists, collectors, and enthusiasts come from around the world to visit Marfa's art. Since 1997 Open House has been co-sponsored by both foundations and attracts thousands of visitors from around the world.
The Chinati Foundation now occupies more than 10 buildings at the site and has on permanent exhibit work by Carl Andre, Ingólfur Arnarson, John Chamberlain, Dan Flavin, Roni Horn, Ilya Kabakov, Richard Long, Claes Oldenburg, Coosje van Bruggen, John Wesley, and David Rabinowitch.
In recent years, a new wave of artists has moved to Marfa to live and work. As a result, new gallery spaces have opened in the downtown area. Furthermore, The Lannan Foundation has established a writers-in-residency program, a Marfa theater group has formed, and a multi-functional art space called Ballroom Marfa has begun to show art films, host musical performances, and exhibit other art installations.
[edit] Marfa lights
Main article: Marfa lights
Official viewing platform, east of Marfa
Outside of Donald Judd and modern art, Marfa may be most famous for the Marfa lights, visible on clear nights between Marfa and the Paisano Pass when one is facing southwest (toward the Chinati Mountains). According to the Handbook of Texas Online, "...at times they appear colored as they twinkle in the distance. They move about, split apart, melt together, disappear, and reappear. Presidio County residents have watched the lights for over a hundred years. The first historical record of them recalls that in 1883 a young cowhand, Robert Reed Ellison, saw a flickering light while he was driving cattle through Paisano Pass and wondered if it was the campfire of Apache Indians. He was told by other settlers that they often saw the lights, but when they investigated they found no ashes or other evidence of a campsite.[5]
Presidio County has built a viewing station nine miles east of town on U.S. 67 near the site of the old air base. Each year, enthusiasts gather for the annual Marfa Lights Festival.
These objects have been featured and mentioned in various media, including the television show Unsolved Mysteries and an episode of King of the Hill ("Of Mice and Little Green Men") and in an episode of Disney Channel Original Series So Weird, however the producers/writers had made the countryside of Marfa as a forest area instead of a desert area which Marfa is actually located in. A fictional book by David Morrell, 2009's "The Shimmer", is inspired by the lights. The metalcore group Between the Buried and Me make a reference in the song "Obfuscation" (2009).
[edit] Filming of Giant and other films
Marker of Marfa
The famous 1956 Warner Bros. film Giant, starring Elizabeth Taylor, Rock Hudson, James Dean, Sal Mineo, Carroll Baker and Dennis Hopper, was filmed in Marfa for two months. Director George Stevens did not have a closed set and actively encouraged the townspeople to come by, either to watch the shooting, or visit with the cast and crew, or take part as extras, dialect coaches, bit players and stagehands.
In August 2006, two movie production units used locations in and around Marfa: the film There Will Be Blood, an adaptation of the Upton Sinclair novel Oil!, directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, and the Coen Brothers' adaptation of the Cormac McCarthy novel No Country for Old Men.[6][7]
The 1976 play Come Back to the Five and Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean, and its 1982 film adaptation, were set in and around Marfa. The film, however, was not shot there.
In 2008, Marfa held the first annual Marfa Film Festival, which lasted from May 1–5.
The music video of 'Home' by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros ends in Marfa with a sign reading 'GOODBYE MARFA, TX!!'
The music video of 'Obfuscation' by Between the Buried and Me is set in Marfa.

100% Acrylic Art Guards
"I think crochet, the way I create it, is a metaphor for the complexity and interconnectedness of our body and its systems and psychology. The connections are stronger as one fabric as opposed to separate strands, but, if you cut one, the whole thing will fall apart.
Relationships are complex and greatly vary situation to situation. They are developmental journeys of growth, and transformation. Time passes, great distances are surpassed and the fabric which individuals are composed of compiles and unravels simultaneously."
Agata Olek Biography. The SPLAT! of colors hits you in the face, often clashing so ostentatiously that it instantly tunes you into the presence of severely cheeky humor. A moment later the fatigue of labor creeps into your fingers as a coal miner's work ethic becomes apparent. Hundreds of miles of crocheted, weaved, and often recycled materials are the fabric from which the wild and occasionally wearable structures of her fantasylands are born.
Olek was born Agata Oleksiak in Poland and graduated from Adam Mickiewicz University in Poland with a degree in cultural studies. In New York, she rediscovered her ability to crochet and since then she has started her crocheted journey/madness.
Resume sniffers may be pleased to know Olek's work has been presented in galleries from Brooklyn to Istanbul to Venice and Brazil, featured in "The New York Times", "Fiberarts Magazine", "The Village Voice", and "Washington Post" and drags a tail of dance performance sets and costumes too numerous to mention.
Olek received the Ruth Mellon Award for Sculpture, was selected for 2005 residency program at Sculpture Space, 2009 residency in Instituto Sacatar in Brazil, and is a winner of apex art gallery commercial competition. Olek was an artist in an independent collective exhibition, "Waterways," during the 49th Venice Biennale. She was also a featured artist in "Two Continents Beyond," at the 9th International Istanbul Biennale.
Olek herself however can be found in her Greenpoint studio with a bottle of spiced Polish vodka and a hand rolled cigarette aggressively re-weaving the world as she sees.

Family Church is on mission to make disciples of Jesus in the places where we live, work and play. We are continuing a legacy of people committed to taking the gospel—the good news that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, was buried and raised from the dead—to the ends of the earth.
We were founded as the First Baptist Church of West Palm Beach in 1901 when there were fewer than 1,000 people living in the city. A small group met first in a home, then in the city’s reading room and then in a donated building on Clematis Street. As the church grew, we changed location and acquired buildings and property to accommodate the growth. Our current downtown worship center was built in the year 1965. Over the years, buildings have come and gone but our church has reinvented herself to continue spreading the gospel in South Florida.
This mission is more important now than ever before. There are an estimated 1.4 million people in Palm Beach County and 96% of them remain unconnected to God and His church. When Pastor Jimmy Scroggins came as our Lead Pastor in 2008, he brought to us a vision to plant 100 neighborhood churches. We want to more effectively go out to reach people rather than expecting them to come to us.
We are growing as a multicultural, multigenerational and multisite church. The name “Family Church” incorporates this vision and has allowed us to plant campuses across Palm Beach County and beyond. Our church planting residency program trains bi-vocational campus pastors as well as other pastors and ministry leaders in areas such as worship, assimilation, adults, students, kids and operations. These men and women are planting churches all over South Florida—turning a vision into a reality.
Each Family Church campus has been launched by a group of courageous individuals who are willing to go and make disciples. God raised up our first church plant, Family Church Abacoa in October 2010, out of a partnership between Family Church Downtown and Central Baptist Church. Our first Spanish-speaking campus, Iglesia Familiar Downtown, was launched in January 2011 and expanded in April 2014 when we partnered with Centro Familiar Cristiano to form Iglesia Familiar Greenacres. We are intentionally reaching out to the fastest-growing demographic in our area — those whose heart language is Spanish.
Family Church West was launched in October 2013 to reach our western communities, and Family Church Sherbrooke joined them to the south in October 2014. Then in March 2015, believing they would be better together, Family Church Abacoa partnered with Palm Beach Community Church to become Family Church Gardens. Continuing to pursue the vision of planting 100 neighborhood churches, Family Church Gardens launched the first Family Church “grandbaby,” Family Church Jupiter, in October 2015. We all partnered with the Church in The Farms and Harvest Bible Chapel in October 2016 to launch Family Church in The Farms.
God is still writing our story. There is no master plan other than His. We constantly challenge each other to be His ambassadors, joining God in the work He is doing to reconcile broken people to Himself. At each campus, we are committed to teach the Bible, build families and love our neighbors. We are on mission to be the church OUT THERE, helping people discover and pursue God’s design.

Since 1960, thousands of artists, writers, scholars, and policymakers have held individual residencies at The Rockefeller Foundation’s Bellagio Center at Serbelloni. The Center has provided a creative and reflective space for Pulitzer Prize winners and Nobel Laureates. Tens of thousands of others have attended group conferences, addressing global challenges of every sort, from questions of international trade and finance to global public health, agriculture and food security, and population growth.
I am leaving for my residency program retreat this weekend, so no photos will be posted. I may not even have time on Sunday, Monday, or Tuesday to post photos as I have to catch up on work. Y'all have a great weekend and I'll see you around next week.
Paul Manship used squirrels as garnish on his 1957 Aesop's Fables gates at the Ancient Garden in New York.
Here's the back story:
Recent Reconstruction:
Central Park Conservancy reconstructed Ancient Playground and the comfort station in 2009. As part of this work, the Osborn Gates were restored and reinstalled at the entrance to the playground. Designed by Paul Manship, the bronze gates depict stories from Aesop's Fables. They were originally built in 1953 and installed at a nearby playground, but were removed in 1972 after being vandalized, and had remained in storage for over 30 years.

Here's what we should know about the highly accomplished Paul Manship, creator of the statue of Prometheus at Rockefeller Center:
Paul Howard Manship (December 24, 1885 – January 28, 1966) was an American sculptor. He consistently created mythological pieces in a classical style, and was a major force in the Art Deco movement. He is well known for his large public commissions, including the iconic Prometheus in Rockefeller Center. He is also credited for designing the modern rendition of New York City's official seal.
Manship gained notice early in his career for rejecting the Beaux Arts movement and preferring linear compositions with a flowing simplicity. Additionally, he shared a summer home in Plainfield, New Hampshire, part of the Cornish Art Colony, with William Zorach for a number of years. Other members of the highly social colony were also contemporary artists.
Manship created his own artist retreat on Cape Ann, developing a 15-acre site in Gloucester, MA that had been two former granite quarries. A local nonprofit, the Manship Artists Residence and Studios has been formed to preserve this estate and establish an artist residency program at the site.
Early Life, Education
Paul Howard Manship was born in St. Paul, Minnesota, on December 24, 1885, the son of Charles H. and Mary Etta (Friend) Manship. His father, born in Mississippi, was a clerk for the St. Paul gas company, and with his wife, who was born in Pennsylvania, were parents of seven children.
Charles and Mary were married in St. Paul, on July 14, 1870, and raised their family in a home they owned at 304 Nelson (later Marshall) Avenue.
Paul H. Manship began his art studies at the St. Paul School of Art in Minnesota. From there he moved to Philadelphia and continued his education at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. Following that he migrated to New York City where he enrolled in the Art Students League of New York, studying anatomy with George Bridgman and modeling under Hermon Atkins MacNeil. From 1905 to 1907 he served as an assistant to sculptor Solon Borglum and spent the two years after that studying with Charles Grafly and assisting Isidore Konti.
In 1909, at Konti's urging, he entered the competition for, and won, the Rome Prize and shortly thereafter decamped for Rome where he attended the American Academy from 1909 until 1912.
While in Europe he became increasingly interested in Archaic art, his own work began to take on some archaic features, and he became more and more attracted to classical subjects. He also developed an interest in classical sculpture of India, and traces of that influence can be observed in his work (see "Dancer and Gazelles" in Gallery). Manship was one of the first artists to become aware of the vast scope of art history being newly excavated at the time and became intensely interested in Egyptian, Assyrian and pre-classical Greek sculpture.
Career
Prometheus at Rockefeller Center
When he returned to America from his European sojourn, Manship found that his style was attractive to both modernists and conservatives. His simplification of line and detail appealed to those who wished to move beyond the Beaux-Arts classical realism prevalent in the day. Also, his view of and use of a more traditional "beauty" as well as an avoidance of the more radical and abstract trends in art made his works attractive to more conservative art collectors. Manship's work is often considered to be a major precursor to Art Deco.
Manship produced over 700 works and always employed assistants of the highest quality. At least two of them, Gaston Lachaise and Leo Friedlander, went on to create significant places for themselves in the history of American sculpture.
Although not known as a portraitist, he did produce statues and busts of Theodore Roosevelt, Samuel Osgood, John D. Rockefeller, Robert Frost, Gifford Beal and Henry L. Stimson.
Manship was very adept at low relief and used these skills to produce a large number of coins and medals. Among his more prominent are the Dionysus medal, the second issue of the long running Society of Medalists; the first term inaugural medal for Franklin D. Roosevelt; and the John F. Kennedy inaugural medal. Additionally, during WW II he designed the U. S. Merchant Marine's Distinguished Service Medal, Meritorious Service Medal and Mariner's Medal.
Manship was chosen by the American Battle Monuments Commission to create monuments following both the First and Second World Wars. They are located respectively in the American Cemetery at Thiaucourt, France in 1926, and in the military cemetery at Anzio, Italy.
Affiliations and Awards
For a number of summers early in his career, Manship found social and artistic companionship in Plainfield, New Hampshire, then part of the Cornish Art Colony, which attracted sculptors such as Augustus Saint-Gaudens, Herbert Adams, Daniel Chester French, and William Zorach. He visited first in 1916, returned the next three years, and then returned again a decade later. This period in his life has been recognized as significant, and Harry Rand observed that "Manship recognized 1916 as the year of his artistic maturity...[he] seemed to express modern ideas in terms of the primitive.
Manship served on the board of the Smithsonian American Art Museum and chaired the board. Manship was affiliated with the National Academy of Design, the National Sculpture Society, and the American Academy of Arts and Letters. He served on the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts from 1937 to 1941. His many honors include a Pierpont Morgan fellowship, a Widener Gold Medal from the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, and the award of Chevalier from the French Legion of Honor.[5] Manship's extensive papers, maquettes and sculptures are housed in the Smithsonian's Archives of American Art. In 2004 the Smithsonian mounted a retrospective of Manship's career which resulted in a reappraisal of the sculptor's work.
There is a gallery dedicated to the display of Manship's work at the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
Manship was father of the artist John Paul Manship (1927–2000).
