Visual Arts Review: BarabásiLab — Where Art and Technology Meet, Beautifully

This BarabásiLab exhibition is inspiring because it exemplifies a powerful integration of art and technology.

By: Mark Favermann Filed Under: Arts and Sciences, Featured, Review, Visual Arts Tagged: art, BarabásiLab, Boston Cyberarts, Boston Cyberarts Gallery, George Fifield, Mark Favermann, technology

Film Review: The Intriguing Documentary “Art and Craft” — Getting a Kick From Copying Art

Why, when finally caught, didn’t mark Landis land in jail? Here’s the rub. He was a consummate liar and a big-time deceiver but he’s never committed a jailable crime.

By: Gerald Peary Filed Under: Featured, Film, Review Tagged: art, Art and Craft, documentary, forgery, Jennifer Grausman, Mark Landis, paintings, Sam Cullman

Arts Commentary — Big Money for Artist Activists From the Robert Rauschenberg Estate

It’s important for there to be funds, curators, institutions, and audiences for art that can speak truth to power in unconstrained ways.

By: Debra Cash Filed Under: Commentary, Featured, Fuse News Tagged: art, Artists Against Police Brutality/Cultures of Violence, Robert Rauschenberg, Robert Rauschenberg Estate, social activism

Fuse Book Review: The Survival of the Fittest Yarnspinner

Reading “The Storytelling Animal” is akin to listening to a series of terrific humanities lectures given by a polymath professor with a P.T. Barnum streak.

By: Arts Fuse Editor Filed Under: Arts and Sciences, Books, Featured Tagged: art, fiction, Jonathan Gottschall, storytelling, The Storytelling Animal: How Stories Make Use Human

Fuse Theater Interview: Ken Cheeseman on “Bakersfield Mist”

We’re in this virtual reality age now, asking new questions about what art is. What has true meaning and what doesn’t?

By: Tim Jackson Filed Under: Featured, Theater Tagged: art, Bakersfield Mist, Jackson-pollock, Jeff Zinn, Ken Cheeseman, Paula Langton

Fuse Stage Interview: Antonio Ocampo-Guzman on Directing a Tragicomic “Art”

In “Art,” playwright Yasmina Reza uses theater to explore how powerfully we defend our fears and rationalizations.

By: Tim Jackson Filed Under: Books, Featured, Theater Tagged: Antonio Ocampo-Guzman, art, New Repertory Theatre, Robert Pemberton, Robert Walsh, Yasmina Reza

Coming Attractions in Theater: January 2012

The year kicks off with few unusual productions — companies are depending on proven New York hits, such as the Yasmina Reza duo, the Tony award-approved “Red,” and “Green Eyes,” though the Tennessee Williams curio tantalizes.

Theater Review: The Irreverent Passion of “Three Pianos”

In “Three Pianos,” three young actor-musicians unite in their irreverent passion for the music of Franz Schubert.

By: Peter-Adrian Cohen Filed Under: Classical Music, Featured, Theater Tagged: Alec Duffy, American Repertory Theater, art, Dave Malloy, Rick Burkhard, Three Pianos

Visual Arts Review: Flowers as the Work Table for the Imagination

Inescapably erotic, flowers are all about desire. What are they but a glorious exhibition and frame of their own genitals?

By: Grace Dane Mazur Filed Under: Featured, Review, Visual Arts Tagged: art, Davis Museum and Cultural Center, flowers, Galleries, Global Flora: Botanical Imagery and Exploration

News Commentary: Unemployment and The Artist’s Studio

Hard economic times hit artists in many different ways. One of the least remarked upon is when there is no longer enough cash for the studio. A local artist, who would prefer to remain anonymous, contemplates the end of having a space where creativity and independence can thrive.
