EDITION29 Architecture Issue 008 for iPad continues with the spirit of the previous issues, showcasing modern houses from Sao Paulo to Nagoya, Japan. Architect Shigeru Fuse tells us about the concrete sculpture he created as the house in Akibo, with ultra modern sculptural interiors that seemed carved from cement walls. Architect Takeshi Hosaka brings abundant natural light into the Daylight House with glass blocks fitted onto the roof that make up segments of the roof providing rays of light into the house.

Canadian architect Michael Taylor creates a simple wooden cabin in the forested regions of Ontario as a private module for the owners of a larger compound. Several slanting roofs arranged to point in two opposing directions provide the small rooms of the Complex House their own independent roofs with abundant natural light seeping in, giving this design a look of two rows of roofs sheltering a family in a tiny plot of land in Nagoya created by the architect Tomohiro Hata.

The Desert House in Paradise Valley, Arizona is a 20 year old structure re-imagined and resurrected by Peter M. Koliopoulos to be a building in tune with its desert setting while also being a low impact construction with many recycled materials. The roof and the surrounding one acre plot was regraded to maximize capture of rainwater.

This issues rounds out with stunning residential structures by architect Robert Edmonds in Kenwood, California to the curved glass wall embedded Lake Lugano House in Switzerland by architect Jacopo Mascheroni.

The Critical Wake of Makemake @ Fountain Enterprises

1261 Dundas St West, Toronto

an exhibition by Kathleen Reichelt and performance by art noise band 253469

Opening Party Thursday, December 15, 9pm

The Critical Wake of Makemake is an imagined manifestation and the yet un-realized vessel moving towards antirealism.  It is a fictional understanding communicated through a state of constant becoming.  It is created in order to claim its rightful place in the present.  The creative inheritance being colour and transparency, rituals and the rites of masks, concealment and revealing.  Visualized openings and objects appear to convey relationships of struggle, power, ease and awkwardness through overlapping and propinquity.  Power can be seen as European realism still trumping other cultural, individual and philosophical alternatives.  Abstraction can be seen as the rejection to this that it was 70 years ago.

The Critical Wake of Makemake is also a live performance by the art noise band 253469 starting at 9pm on Thursday December 15th.  Two 30 minute punk jazz performances including such standards as “I fly my plane backwards”, “Round the decibel” and “A ton of nothing” (senseless language, analogue and digital synthesizers and one loud electric stick guitar.)

Exhibition runs 12.15.11 - 01.25.12

WSAG presents “Alter Ego”: Gloria Green

December 6-23, 2011

Show description: 

“Complicated and powerful, the large works (4x5 feet) presented by emerging artist, Gloria green, evoke emotion and individual interpretation in her viewers.  Her objective is to take the passion she has for classical music and medical science; and build a multidisciplinary humanistic approach in her painting. An alter ego is revealed: they can be vibrant or subdued, dark, moody or sexy — there is tranquility in colour, but it can also bring about depth and attitude.”

IndianArtCollectors.com this month features an entirely different concept by Mr. Suresh Gulage: An artist who chose the less followed path and made Architectural Landscapes as his trademark work. December 2, 2011: Suresh Gulage is a well known name when it comes to giving life to speechless buildings.“Buildings may be mute spectators, but they hold the life of a city” says the artist that defines his ability to observe life. His work would be exclusively available for sale in exhibition section of IndianArtCollectors.com. Through brushwork and hues, Suresh highlight the beauty of buildings by recreating these marvels using a vibrant colour palette and technique that oscillates between being in-the-face to subtle and suggestive, both instances replete with the exquisiteness of the built form. Suresh Gulage loves the light play and the way the same light illuminates different parts of the building in different ways. His work is highly inspired by the effect that lights, colours, motifs, seasons and day times play on a building making it appear different at varied instances. A post Graduate in Art, this painter to created his own identity during the early phase of his career. “There are so many artists who paint landscapes, portraits, abstract, there are very few who really paint architectural landscapes. “I wanted to make a name in this genre and I think I have achieved that” says Suresh proclaiming his success without hesitation but without sounding pompous or egoistic.
