À propos de cet audio

The Roofless Dog & Pony Show is a program created by Roofless Painters, an Art School and Gallery for nomads and misfits.

In each episode, we discuss what we are about to paint and why we're going to paint it. We introduce the theme of the painting collection we're getting ready to work on. We talk about the genesis of the concept, its contemporary context, and reflect on the form it may take on our paintings. We also bring up stylistic and historical references as inspiration in the form of painting examples from the past.

Our episodes are from life, messy, and unvarnished, just like our paintings.Copyright Julio Panisello

  • BOUGAINVILLEAS
    Jun 11 2021
    Bougainvillea, by Lucy Eddy

    Garlands of royal Purple:
    Proud, regal notes of pageantry
    Sounding imperial color:
    A fanfare of trumpets
    Triumphant, barbaric:
    Bells and chimes and cymbals
    Clanging crimson.

  • Ear Rings
    May 21 2021
    Our last portrait challenged us to put extra effort into the ears, a part of the face we usually tend to neglect.

    During the process, we came across a close-up of Vermeer's Girl with a Pearl Earring, which reveals the minimal paint Vermeer employed to depict a fully formed alleged pearl. It has two strokes, one of them barely visible, no hardware, and no hook. The skin beneath is not covered; it can be seen clearly. But if you stand back, a pearl appears.

    There is a difference between painting illusion and painting effect, and exercising restraint can help us transcend the first to achieve the latter.

  • Anti-portrait
    May 14 2021
    Contemporary artist Virginia Nimarkoh painted Untitled #1 (After Gerhard Richter, Betty, 1988) in 2001. Her painting replicates the famous photorealist portrait by Gerhard Richter, replacing a young African-American woman for Richter's daughter, engaging us to reconsider the determinability of an image and the ways minority representation expands the narrative of a conceptually unmovable artwork.

    Nimarkoh's painting invited us to revisit Richter's piece, which at that time broke many conventions in portraiture. The daughter turns away from the camera, and the viewer looks into one of Richter’s monochrome works from the mid-70s. The composition achieves intimacy through extreme awkwardness.

    Conceptually, the tension builds from the uncertainty about the reason the figure is looking back. Is she about to look forward? Was this the instant when Richter is about to press the shutter button, and Betty decides to unexpectedly look away?

    We will reenact both paintings' exact position using a different subject: ourselves, a family member, a friend.
