With acclaimed Kaua`i abstract painter, Tom Lieber, and one of America’s most beloved contemporary artists William T. Wiley on board, g a l e r i e 1 0 3 is making a maiden voyage from the Kauai`s South Shore all the way to the South Eastern art mecca, Art Basel Miami 2010.
From December 2nd to December 5th, g a l e r i e 1 0 3 will set up camp at famed art hotel Sagamore in the heart of Miami Beach.
This will be the first international art scene appearance for g a l e r i e 1 0 3 and Kaua`i, and a great opportunity to expand general awareness and to correct any lingering idea that the contemporary Hawaiian art scene is “merely” focused on the celebration of natural beauty.
Alongside Lieber and Wiley, there will be exhibited works by Chicago veteran Peter Bodnar and a series of lithographs by H.C. Westermann (1922-1981), American print
maker and sculptor whose art constituted a scathing commentary on militarism and materialism.
Hawaii has become (as it should be) one of the centers of conceptual awareness and critical debate of many matters shaping human destiny, including global environmental issues. Kauai`s own Doug Britt, Mac James, and Bruna Stude examine these issues through their various media on view during Art Basel events.
Also featured will be the works of Kaua`i underexposed talent, like eighty-nine year old collage master Kathleen Adair Brown, and a number of Hawaii based artists which the gallery represents. Selections reflect the Island’s unique environment; past and present, challenging misconceptions about Hawaii’s regionalism and ethnic origin.
In her article, “Amorous of Island Art”, Jaimey Hamilton, Art Writer, and Assistant Professor of Art at the University of Hawai`i in Manoa, remarks on how Poipu`s
g a l e r i e 1 0 3 rises above the stereotypical “tourist” art galleries that seem to proliferate in the islands:
“How? By conceiving of a space that combines the best of local talent with international artists in spare, smart shows that challenge the notion of regionalism that has preoccupied Hawai`i artists, gallerists and collectors for so long. In opening a world-class gallery on the south shore of Kaua`i, Stude proves that instead of endlessly comparing ourselves to other art centers, the Hawai`i arts community can simply take pride in the fact that we are part of a vibrant global art culture that internationally important art can and does happen here.
