Brent Ridge in Assemblage/Collage at Site:Brooklyn

 I've been included in an online exhibition called Assemblage/Collage at Site:Brooklyn.

The exhibition is curated Regine Basha and they wrote about the included works to contextualize the groupings and art connections of the chosen art. It's also organized by "walls" to give the sense of a themed exhibition and connections to similar artworks. 

Small sample text from the curator about the show: "Collage and Assemblage spans many important eras in Western art history, including some of the most avant-garde movements of our time."

The artwork below is included in the exhibition:

Brent Ridge-Untitled (BR22-301)

Check out the exhibition!

It is also a fantastic blog to read about the subject of painting and the painting art scene (mostly NYC).

MADELINE FAUST - Second Line Sashay

I made a trip to New Orleans with my family.  On our travels I found this public artwork of a very New Orleansian theme: the second line.

BRENT RIDGE - NAC CLASSES 12.06.17

Hello Class,

This is our last class of the year and session!

Time goes so fast.

Let's finish with energy and a splash of color - Let yourself use the things we've talked about and apply them without thinking so much - be impulsive and trust your intuition.

Here is Joanne Greenbaum:

Feel free to bring back some favorites you've made along our journey this Fall, and we can reflect on some successes of our painter's work.

BRENT RIDGE - NAC CLASSES 11.29.17

Hello Class!

Welcome back from the holiday.

This week consider how you are using your color.  Try out one painting to make that uses all the deviations of a single color, not monochrome, but let that color dominate and variate from cool to warm, from light to dark so that its not even apparent that you're working in one color.

Here is an example of this that I recently completed in my studio for you to use as an inspirational model:

Brent Ridge, Rusted Yellow, 2017

See you in class.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

On this day of thanks and chowing down, let me serve up a heaping helping of Wayne Thiebaud to dig into ––– enjoy!
