Surfer's Skyline by Benjamin Janovics
Overtime we post a new ArtisTTable Exhibition a few things happen. One we are once more impressed by the work that is submitted. We love to see how the theme of each show is interpreted. Secondly, We feel a great sense of pride in being able to showcase all of this wonderful creativity. And as we are at this point as we are now, where we are having shows for the second time, it shows us how time truly does fly. Especially when you are having fun.
This exhibition is in fact the second abstract show we have put on. We have come a long way, and have met so many good people in the process. This show we have lots of new friends from all corners of the globe and a few old friends that keep coming back. We would like to send our appreciation out to all the artists that really made this exhibition possible.
We want to thank our juror, and accomplished musician and artist, Haydn Dickenson, he undertook the task of reviewing all the submissions to the show. It is not an easy task at that, never the less he did a marvelous job.
Juror’s Notes:
I've been so impressed by the overall diversity of submissions to this Exhibition. Deciding on the three winners was not easy, but ultimately I selected three pieces that induced in me a visceral reaction, which is what I want Art to do! Also important in making my choice was the balance of colour or tone, composition, and mastery of technique and materials.
In Natalia Prutski's piece, Silence - taking a richly-deserved First Prize - simplicity is key; the result being a truly mesmeric evocation of silent contemplation. In Forest, Sue Imperial is a worthy recipient of Second Prize with a piece demonstrating a superb handling of texture within almost monochrome tones. Third Prize winner Sam Tucibat has given us a piece of stunning depth, originality and richness in his Untitled 1.
As for the Honorable mentions, I was particularly struck by Yael Yael's haunting and thoughtful work, and by the edgy vigor of Gal Roditty's film-making, especially '12345612345'
Congratulations to all the winners and indeed to all the participants on a truly fantastic show!
Lastly, we feel that it is important that every one around the world gets to participate and be a part by voting in the 2LITTLE People's Choice Awards. Every piece of art has a button under it that will allow you to cast your vote for your favorite piece.
