Animals with Sharpies
Author: Michael Dumontier
Publisher: Drawn and Quarterly
ISBN: 9781770461062
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Paintings by two of Canada's most influential contemporary fine artists Animals with Sharpies is a collection of paintings with hand-lettered texts. In each painting, Michael Dumontier and Neil Farber have depicted an animal holding a Sharpie, ostensibly writing a message. These messages are varied in nature: political and religious tracts, confessions, recipes, arithmetic problems, and more. Above all, these paintings are funny, but they are also startlingly poignant and jarring for the humanness of the suffering and longing depicted in these animals' simple words. Dumontier and Farber, two of the founding members of the highly influential art collective the Royal Art Lodge, have been collaborating on art projects for more than fifteen years. Their collaborative style is unique from that found in their individual works and is respected internationally: they've exhibited together in France, Switzerland, Canada, the United States, Belgium, Spain, England, and Germany. Dumontier and Farber have a strong sense of the absurd, but they are also deeply insightful about the world in which their art is created. Animals with Sharpies is a mixture of new, previously unseen pieces and older pieces.

Book Description
Two of Canada’s most famous visual artists take on the book medium in their own hilarious way Library is a collection of paintings by two of Canada’s most influential contemporary artists, Michael Dumontier and Neil Farber. From the simple premise of the book title comes a series of images that are laugh-out-loud funny. A collection of book covers adorned with titles painted in simple handwritten fonts are displayed on brightly colored hardboard. Each book forms part of an ongoing series Dumontier and Farber started in 2009. In Dumontier and Farber’s Library, titles like I Lost the Human Race, Change Your Relationship to Your Unchangeable Past, and I Have a Medical Condition That Makes It So I Don’t Have to Talk to You offer surprising and astute observations, all in the duo’s characteristic deadpan style. The simplicity of the shapes and text evokes an immediate but lasting profundity, with each piece causing one to wonder about the thoughts that roam their consciousness, and the books that take up residence on their—and our—shelves. Dumontier and Farber are founding members of the influential art collective the Royal Art Lodge, and have been collaborating on art projects for more than fifteen years, exhibiting internationally. Library is playful and insightful as it pokes and prods at the human condition.

Constructive Abandonment
Author: Michael Dumontier
Publisher: Drawn and Quarterly
ISBN: 9781770460454
Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
From two of the founding members of the influential collective, the Royal Art Lodge Constructive Abandonment is a series of small paintings featuring surreal vignettes with animals and children weighed down by the pressures of life. With absurdly comedic interactions, the text varies from straightforward to even more abstract and nonsensical than the images that it accompanies. The paintings reference child's play or literature and some are seemingly without reference, completely untethered. Michael Dumontier and Neil Farber are founding members of the Royal Art Lodge. Since the dissolution of the influential Winnipeg art collective, Dumontier and Farber continue to work and create art together. Constructive Abandonment is a partnership not only of two of today's great contemporary artists but also of cohesive dissonance. Pages that could be forgettable one-liners become investigations into intellect and our ability to draw correlations between contradictory elements in a single image.

Book Description
Protest. Fear. Love. And how to fail in style. Enter a world where a sense of doom is inescapable, but some are still resisting, struggling to live and find love as they kick against the global order pushing down on them. Whether in Colombia, London or Madrid, the fight is the same fight, and love is still love, and when you fail at either, it hurts. Caught between Colombian guerrillas and European charities, one man and one woman try to forge their own paths, aware that the financial and political forces against them are powerful beyond imagining. Some days even keeping their friends alive and free of prison is a challenge. And as if their opponents aren't bad enough, they aren't even sure they can trust themselves. In dark political times, everyone with the stomach for a fight seeks allies. Where and with whom will you choose to make a stand?

Call Ampersand Response

Publisher: Nieves
ISBN: 9783905999082
Category : Art, Modern
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Call Ampersand Response' is a collaborative artwork made of images exchanged via email. Over a period of several months, Dumontier and Lexier sustained an image-based correspondence by sending each other scans of book covers, found objects, drawings and illustrations belonging to each artist's respective collection. The project is based on the idea that their collections speak of their shared artistic affinities while informing their practices. Two rules dictated their conduct: each image was to function as a 'call' seeking a 'response' from the other artist, and the dialogue was to end when an image recalling the project's opening image emerged, thereby constituting a narrative loop. Exhibition: Artexte Gallery, Montreal, Canada (7.6.-8.9.2012).
