    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.

    ‘Strange Days and Other Anomalies’ at Light and Space Contemporary

Ramon Raphael Banzon, Miggy Borja, Raffy La Madrid, Paul Bryan Miranda, and Mek Yambao come together in their first ever group exhibition as an official art group “Strange Days”, which opens on Sunday 6PM, November 13 at the Gallery 3 of Light and Space Contemporary.

In their show titled “Strange Days and Other Anomalies”, the group discovers unchartered terrain played out in unusual settings and circumstances. Through observation or pure imagination, strange encounters are conceived, which leads the mind to question its very own boundaries and re-examine what one considers “Strange”. 
The exhibit simultaneously opens with solo exhibitions of Kaloy Olavides and Beejay Esber at the Galleries 1 and 2. All shows will run until November 28. Light and Space Contemporary is located at 53 Fairlane st. West Fairview, 1118 Quezon City, Philippines.

    Other ViewSolo Exhibition by Mark SalvatusThe Drawing RoomOctober 15 , 2011 
Other View is about the possibilities of art in the prosaic, as it is about the impossibility of capture of object and of art. Mark Salvatus brings together here work reminiscent of many others he’s done before, but which are necessarily new by virtue of his interest in the transient and silent, taking an object and all that it means and putting it into question as it highlights its utility, or makes it bigger pitted against another, or demands it make a statement in its mere existence, always in the process pointing a finger at the processes of art making in the present. But Other View is also ultimately about Salvatus’ insistence on the spectator’s experience of these objects as art as objects that are familiar and everyday, where intertexuality is default in the process of making sense of what is the ordinary turned object of art, where the gaze is the tenuous space within which the spectator finds meaning and enters a particular process of creativity. That this could mean objects being returned to their proper places, of artlessness and meaninglessness, is not so much a risk that Salvatus takes, as it is exactly the point.
Text by Katrina Stuart Santiago
Mark Salvatus (b. 1980) graduated Cum Laude from the University of Santo Tomas with a degree in Fine Arts major in advertising. He works across disciplines and various media that deal with community, urbanism, accidental encounters and everyday cultures. Winner of the 2010 Ateneo Art Awards, he is the recipient of the residency grants from Common Room Networks Foundation, La Trobe University Visual Arts Center and the New York Art Project (Art Omi). His recent exhibitions include “Stories of Dreams and Realities” at Rossi & Rossi (London), “Vernacular Cultures & Contemporary Art in Australia, India and the Philippines” at La Trobe University Museum of Art, LUMA (Melbourne), C_rafts at the Vargas Museum (Manila), “Open House” at the 3rd Singapore Biennale, Koganecho Bazaar in Yokohama and “Meta Question” at the 4th Guangzhou Triennial.

    JULIA VANDEPOLDER: Backhouse    
Also featuring paintings by BRIAN HARVEY
October 12 – November 26, 2011
 
Opening Reception and Street Party for SHOW OFF: 
Friday, Oct 21st, 7 - 10pm
Artists in attendance. 
 
Mason design firm is hosting SHOW OFF @ the Junction where local designers & artists are being paired up with Junction shop owners to create show-stopping window display installations. Opening the same night!  Exhibition continues until Oct 30th.  www.mason-studio.com/showoff
 
Julia Vandepolder’s recent paintings are an investigation of abandoned and collapsing urban and rural architecture. She explores the intricacies and details of these spaces, focusing on the remaining structures which are often extensively patterned through weathering and decay.  The rich surfaces of her paintings capitalize on the tension between representation and abstraction, inside and outside, what is hidden and what is visible.  Abstract accumulations of line, colour and texture tentatively coalesce into the jagged contour of a beam, a corroded pipe or a pile of bricks. This exhibition features selected large scale works on panel as well as small studies and works on Mylar.
With a focus on Studio Art and Art History, Julia Vandepolder earned an Honours Bachelor of Arts degree at the University of Guelph in 2009.  She recently won the Founding Chairman’s Award at the Toronto Outdoor Art Exhibition (TOAE) and completed a residency at the Vermont Studio Centre.  Vandepolder has been continuously exhibiting at public and private galleries across Ontario and her work is featured in several private collections.  Julia Vandepolder maintains a full-time studio in Caledon.
Brian Harvey`s paintings are studies of the commonplace and the typically mundane.  His subject matter includes household objects, interior spaces and urban landscapes.  In his current work, Harvey focuses on “remnants” of Toronto’s neighbourhoods.  Having lived a stone’s throw from the gallery, Harvey is very familiar with The Junction, a neighbourhood located in Toronto’s west end, which is featured in several of the paintings.  Harvey is emotionally drawn to buildings which endure and are connected to the past; holdovers which are often ignored or forgotten about altogether.  Through painting, Harvey has the opportunity to examine and study these buildings before they are gone. 
Initially pursuing digital media and animation at Seneca College, Brian Harvey continued his studies in painting and drawing at Sheridan College, Toronto School of Art, The Art Centre - Central Technical School and he is currently pursuing a degree at OCAD University, Toronto.  He has been exhibiting extensively for over a decade and has devoted himself to painting full-time since 2007. Brian Harvey lives and works in Toronto.
