Michael Rothschild and Seth Aylmer's 'Shaman Colossus' is part of Brave Brooklyn
Brave Brooklyn is an art exhibit and auction to benefit the Open Space Alliance for North Brooklyn (OSA) and Trust Art projects supported by OSA. Brave Brooklyn will be open to the public December 4-11.
Along with various other works, including that of pre-eminent sculptor Richard Serra and mixed-media artist Fred Tomaselli, this exhibition features the artwork of Trust Art artists proposing new public art projects in collaboration with OSA.
To help fundraise for Michael's upcoming public artwork, Ocean Monument, Trust Art and OSA are auctioning this piece by Seth Aylmer (Michael's apprentice):
Shaman Colossus, 2009, Photograph & acrylic paint
Rothschild's fascination with the ancient petroglyphs in Down east Maine have been documented in many forms. His apprentice and Trust Art co-founder, Seth Aylmer, continues to experiment with the powerful relationship of these figures with the modern person. Having photographed one of the various petroglyphs found on the coastal cliffs, Rothschild and Aylmer probe deeper into these images, testing their force by enlarging the figure and by adding touches of paint to stand out as markers of one's attempt to connect with not only the image, but with the person who first made their sustained mark 3000 years ago.
Go to eBay to bid on this piece. The starting bid is $800 and the auction closes on December 11 at 9pm (EST).
The work is on view until December 11 at 30 Dobbins Street in Williamsburg. There is a closing reception open to the public on December 11, 6-9pm. Join us if you are in Brooklyn!
Other artists in this exhibit include: Bradley Brown, James Case, Ryan Goolsby, Weston Woolly, Emily Goode, Suzanne Zwicky, Gidalya Tashman, Karl Metz, Adam Taye, Chris Burnside, James Woodward, Robbert Jan de Oude, Sam Martineau, Lizzy Wezler, Matt Jones, Kristin Deirup, Jesse Witkin, Kris Graves, Nathan Koch, and Molly Surno.
