Scroll (detail) by Bette Burgoyne

Immerse yourself into a fantastic work of art by Bette Burgoyne - what a great trip!

The drawing "Scroll", by artist Bette Burgoyne, was completed in early 2011 and displayed through April 2011 at Amo Art Gallery. "Scroll" is white pencil on black paper, measuring over 10 feet in length. Display requirements make viewing "Scroll" in person a rare experience. In order to share the drawing with everyone, this 5 minute video was created.

- Video editing by Jeff Cerar / 4th Wall Films.

- Music permission for Animal Collective's "Visiting Friends" specifically for "Scroll" granted by Animal Collective, Rough Trade Publishing, and Fat Cat Records.

- Image file of "Scroll" courtesy of Art & Soul Photo, Seattle, WA.

Scroll, a white pencil drawing on black paper measuring over 10 feet in length, debuted in April 2011 at Amo Art.

The Antipodes Project was a collaborative art project started by Ben Tolman in 2006.
It was an ongoing, evolving project dedicated to exploring the antipodes of our collective mind.
The project was later continued by fellow artist Joe MacGown.

this is just one of the project pieces artists were working on. There may be more completed in future.

Einfach Phantastisch - Sonderausstellung Barockschloss Riegersburg - Press Update

Post by Otto Rapp

Grenzüberschreitende Phantasie
In Schloss Riegersburg im Waldviertel geben sich Barock und Phantasten die Hand.

this is a article in the German language magazine Morgen (Kulturzeitschrift aus Niederösterreich) written by Verena Kienast

Francesca Pilati vor dem Apokalyptischen Reiter des deutschen Malers Wolfgang Grasse. Als Herrin auf Schloss Riegersburg hat sie das barocke Anwesen als reizvolle Begegnungsstätte mit moderner Kunst aus Österreich und den Nachbarländern etabliert.

Vladimir Petrov-Gladky, Hommage zu Salvador Dalí (2014)

Auf den ersten Blick haben sie denkbar wenig gemein, die Werke der barocken Meister und die Jahrhunderte später entstandenen Arbeiten eines Rudolf Hausner, eines Ernst Fuchs oder eines Arik Brauer. Auf den zweiten Blick hingegen stellen die Üppigkeit von Phantasie und Formen und die geradezu traumhafte Verkettung von Objekten und Ereignissen durchaus verbindende Gemeinsamkeiten zwischen den zwei Kunstrichtungen aus zeitlich recht weit voneinander entfernten Epochen der europäischen Kulturgeschichte dar. Und so gehen auch die Werke phantastischer Kunst der vergangenen Jahrzehnte in ihren unterschiedlichen Ausprägungen mit dem barocken Umfeld von Schloss Riegersburg im Waldviertel eine reizvolle, spannende Symbiose ein.
