Emil
Baumann
-
Metamorphosis of an artist - "...it's
'the sheer joy of painting' that Emil
says keeps him up burning the midnight
oil. Ever experimenting with colours and
contours, lines and layers of pastels
and paints, sometimes he will try layering
his hues to see what effects emerge; sometimes
he'll have a specific place or time in
mind before he picks up his palette knife
or brush to paint. And on some occasions,
Emil may simply splash acrylic colours
onto his canvas till his work blazes with
bold reds, whites, pale purples and glowing
greens."

Mark
Campbell - From a City Paper review
of "A Change of Scenery," at Silicon
Gallery in Philadelphia; April 20–27,
2000
"Mark
Campbell has fun straightening the Schuylkill
River in a patchwork image of black and
white aerial shots; in smaller color Iris
prints, he comments on the ugly sprawl of
our world by showing "after and before"
versions of images with all vestiges of
sprawl digitally erased."
Maryann
Friel - Master Printer for the
Fabric
Workshop and Museum.
Carolyn
Healy and John Philips - collaborative
artists based in Philadelphia who produce
site-specific multimedia installations.
Carolyn works in the visual realm creating
all the sculptural objects in our pieces:
she prepares the environment in which they
are seen, and does all the lighting of the
work. John composes the sound and video
components, designs the interactive systems,
gizmos and computer programming.

Kirk
McCarthy - Brett Davidson,
director of Iman Gallery in Houston states,
"McCarthy's forms act as ciphers of
an invisible impulse that drives the moon's
phases and the sea's strange and rhythmic
undulations. These same impulses create
forest fires, ice storms, and the varied
eruptions of plant life, and the myriad
movements of nature's systems."

Jackie
Tileston - My work comes out
of an interest in abstraction as a language
in which invention, analysis, and the stuff
of paint can work in concert with each other.
The paintings and drawings feed off of the
computer, the history of abstraction, new
physics, Hindu deity images, Chinese landscape,
and other sources.
Blaise
Tobia - Visual Artist in Photography
and Digital Photography. Writer on Photographic
Theory/Criticism. There are many unifying
factors in my work under its ecclectic surface
of subjects, forms and styles. I am interested
in storytelling; virtually all of my work
conveys stories of some kind. I am interested
in the urban landscape and the products
of human culture, especially people's self-representations.
