Professor Joseph H. Molinaro of Eastern Kentucky University has been studying the art of the upper Amazon region of Ecuador for over ten years. The art objects produced there can be used to define and differentiate the various indigenous groups inhabiting the rain forest. However, with the advancement of outside influences many of the age-old craft traditions, such as pottery making, are in jeopardy of extinction. Join us as Professor Molinaro discusses this complex issue of ceramics and culture—as well as see some original objects!

Artlink’s Wet Paint Auction
Sunday, September 24, 2006, Rain or Shine
Lakeside Park, 1401 Lake Avenue, Pavilion #1, Fort Wayne
9:00 a.m. until 1:00, bidding ends at 1:30 p.m.
For more info, contact Deb Washler, Executive Director, 260-424-7195, Deb Washler deb@artlinkfw.com or Suzanne Galazka, suzanne@artlinkfw.com.
Artlink’s Wet Paint Auction returns to Rose Garden
On Sunday, September 24, come rain or shine, approximately 20 local artists will be painting in Artlink’s Wet Paint Auction. The fundraising event takes place at Lakeside Park, Fort Wayne, Pavilion #1 from 9 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Artists participating in the event include: Dean Ellerbusch, Suzanne Galazka, Gwen Gutwein, Matt Kelly, April Knox, Don Kruse, Heidi Malott, Don Osos, Michelle J. Panasuk and Terry Ratliff.
This is an educational event and fun for the whole family. Artists begin working at 9 a.m. and finish at 1 p.m. The artists have their easels set up all over the park and the public is invited to watch them create. Silent bids may be made all day at Pavilion #1, but most of the bidding will take place as the painters bring their wet artwork to the pavilion at 1:00 p.m. There’s always a scramble to get one more bid in on a favorite painting or two. Bid sheets are picked up at 1:30 p.m. and the winners take their wet masterpieces home. All proceeds from the Wet Paint Auction go to Artlink, Inc., Fort Wayne’s not-for-profit contemporary art gallery.
Suzanne Galazka who helps organize the event says, “We usually have a wide variety of talented artists participate in this event and an interesting mix of materials used by the artists. I remember one year photographer Cathie Rowand took pictures and developed them in the back of her van. I think that’s pretty amazing. Also last time, Jaleh Fazel, the potter, brought some newly made pots to the park, sat among the rose bushes and glazed the pots with the rose bushes as her inspiration. After the bidding, she took the pots home to fire them. I think that’s going beyond the call - and all for Artlink. Folks got some really nice artwork from that auction.”

Charlie Cummings Clay Studio's September exhibition, Muse of Fire: The Ceramic Figure, featuring Tom Bartel, Liz Bryant, R. Bruce Flowers , Marie Gibbons, Dana Groemminger, Gregg Jabs, Kyle & Kelly Phelps, Katy Rush, Matt Shaffer, and Paul Andrew Wandless is now available for viewing on our web site.
Our innate emotional and intellectual responses make the human figure the most powerful form in art. The figure is the most direct means by which artists address issues of humanity, ideas about ourselves as individuals, and views on our culture. Muse of Fire: The Ceramic Figure features 11 contemporary ceramic artists. From R. Bruce Flowers' reflections on same-sex relationships to Kyle and Kelly Phelps' musings on racial conflict, we see in clay the vexing issues of the day. Artists Liz Bryant, Marie Gibbons, Paul Andrew Wandless, and Dana Groemminger use the human form as a canvas for the expression of inner life, turmoil, and often unseen facets of the mind. The work of Tom Bartel, Gregg Jabs, Katy Rush, and Matt Shaffer explore sexuality, identity, mortality and the impermanence of life.
Join us Saturday September 9th, 6-9PM for the reception of this exhibition, or visit us on the FWMoA Trolley Tour September 21st.
