The Unexpected Guest

About the Item

Edition of 150 MEDIUM Giclee Print on Hot Press Bright paper DIMENSIONS Unframed: 25 x 40 inches Framed: 28 ½ x 43 ¾ inches DESCRIPTION The image represents a persistent theme within the artist's oeuvre: colonization of native lands in South America. In this image, the tropical landscape is taking back control. Seen here with a palm tree bursting through a window in Buckingham Palace. This giclée print is a limited edition of 150, based on a large-scale charcoal on paper that has since sold. Fuenmayor realized this was one of his most successful compositions, so he decided to make a series of prints based on it. He wanted the smaller prints to mimic the quality of the original charcoal, so he exposed fringes of the paper to give the work a feel of being drawn and made the reproduction extraordinarily high resolution.

  • Miss Prather's Class
    By Winfred Rembert
    Located in New York, NY
    Color Reduction woodcut from 4 blocks with 4 silk screen colors and embossing on white Rives BFK paper Edition 28/30, Unframed MassArt welcomed artist Winfred Rembert for the 2014 Master Print Series, an artist in residency project during which, an established artist transforms an idea into physical artwork, and invites students to collaborate in the art-making process. A self-taught artist, Winfred Rembert records a painful chapter of American history in autobiographical paintings, created on hand-tooled and dyed leather, which explore the lives of African Americans in Jim Crow-era Georgia. After taking part in civil rights demonstrations, he survived a lynching only to be sent to prison to do hard labor on a chain gang. Another inmate taught him leatherworking and Rembert began depicting his past in engaging compositions and vibrant color. In many scenes, Rembert offers a raw view of racism, inequality, and violence while celebrating his community’s resilience in the face of such overwhelming injustice. Winfred Rembert also participated in the Adderley Lecture series, which features distinguished artists, historians, and writers and was established in 1995 in memory of Tyrone Maurice Adderley. Past Adderley lecturers have included Chakaia Booker, Melvin Edwards...

  • Meadow Beauty
    By Trailer McQuilkin
    Located in New York, NY
    The pictures you see here are not, as you might think, photographs of wildflowers. They are images of the remarkably lifelike, painstakingly detailed art of Trailer McQuilkin, whose wildflower sculptures are a blend of several artistic techniques. The product of this art form is unique; each sculpture is one of a kind, with its own individuality and its own beauty. A native of New Orleans, McQuilkin has lived and worked in Ocean Springs, Mississippi, for the past 35 years. In 1969 the artist began experimenting with methods of creating metal wildflower sculpture. He soon found that imitating nature − which many have held is the chief function of art − is a difficult process. He steadily gained mastery of this new complex form and continues today to hone his skills, refine his materials and techniques while expanding his vision of the next sculpture. McQuilkin uses sheet copper, copper wire, metal primer, oil paints, and natural materials in his work. His techniques include cutting, soldering, incising, and painting. Each step is performed with uncompromising attention to detail. Each sculpture has special challenges. It takes from two to five months to complete each piece. A careful examination of the finished sculpture reveals the tiniest fibers, the slightest discoloration and even an occasional insect-bitten leaf. His work is a completely original documentation of nature, trompe l’oeil art in the best sense. McQuilkin, who is largely self-taught, has achieved the highest level of skill and artistry. Therefore he produces complex and beautiful microhabitats. His work has taken him from the North Pole Basin at Crested...
