Layered landscapes progress from the real into abstraction and a fusion of the two.  They are expanded visions of the earth.  \nDigital Fusion paintings resulting from the capture of a video frame use computer technology as a starting point and are realized through hands-on manipulation. The surfaces are transformed by drawing\, acrylic and glass particle collage resulting in a luminous translation that speaks to its moving image origin.  Rosalind is most interested in the quality of light as a structural element.  The paintings are a fusion of multiple realities that are birthed from video.  \nAn extensive exhibition history includes the Hammond Museum\, the Hirshhorn Museum\, the Bronx Museum\, the Chelsea Museum\, the Hudson River Museum\, the NY Hall of Science millennium exhibit\, the Whitney Museum “The Color of Ritual\, The Color of Thought\, Women Avant-Garde Filmmakers in America\,” MOMA “Carte Blanche: Women Writing the Language of Cinema.” An installation of hers was chosen for the closing event of Art Basel at the Miami Beach Cinematheque.  Her 16mm films are currently being restored by The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences and will be part of the Academy Museum.  Rosalind attended Syracuse University School of Art\, Empire State College and the Arts Students League.   \nWebsite: www.rosalindscheiderart.com \n  \n \n \n \n \n \n How to watch Instagram Live:\nOne watches a live broadcast on the Instagram app on your mobile device or on Instagram.com.

MacDougall III\n \n Register for Event\n \n \n \n \n \n Sunday\, October 17thRiver Front Hangar west of 145 Palisade Street 3:00-4:30 pmIn-person: $15 \nIn our ongoing effort to connect local artists with art lovers we are proud to present our next RiverArts Artist Conversation with sculptor\, Malcolm D. MacDougall III live and in-person at his studio on the Dobbs Ferry waterfront on Sunday October 17th at 3pm.  \n“We are thrilled to have another wonderful opportunity to gather this great community of art appreciators together to learn about this incredible local artist’s perspectives and process\,” said Artist Conversation Producer\, Marie-Louise Miller.  \nMacDougall’s work transcends the physical. Led by the desire to capture the potential for movement in the objects around us and influenced by the world as seen through the lens of the microscope\, Macdougall creates sculpture which leads the imagination to touch the sublime.  \nMacdougall has seen two large scale works on display in NY City: “Conflicts of Growth” at Spring & Varrick in 2013 and “Microscopic Landscape” at Union Square Park in 2012. Said of his 2013 piece\, Microscopic Landscape\, It “is about potential energy and pushing a stagnant object as close to perceived movement as possible.”   \n“The sculpture serves as a snapshot of the ongoing activity in the neighborhood; it is a static object that maintains the constant anticipation of movement\, just as the grounds of Union Square provide the framework for the energetic flow of people and commerce.”  City Atlas: New York \n\nLocally\, his sculptures\, “Outcrops of Bacterial Growth” and “Eternal Conflicts of Growth” were displayed in Wagner Park and Kinally Cove of Hastings-on-Hudson respectively.   \n“We are inviting a limited audience to come to Malcolm’s studio and participate in a wide-ranging conversation with the artist about the motivation and inspiration for choosing materials\, his process for transforming objects into works of art\, and what he looks forward to at this stage of his creative life\,” says RiverArts’ Artistic Director\, Kate Ashby. To support the safe appreciation of art\, the live audience will be limited to 40.  We will also be recording this event and will offer this after the fact for $5.    \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n FOR MORE INFORMATION EMAIL: info@riverarts.org \n \n Register for Event URL:https://riverarts.org/event/artist-conversation-with-malcolm-macdougall/ LOCATION:Studio west of 145 Palisades Street\, 145 Palisades Street\, Dobbs Ferry\, NY\, 10522\, United States CATEGORIES:Art,Artist Conversation,In-person ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://riverarts.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/ArtistConversation_MalcolmMacDougall_WebsiteEvent-01.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20211014T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20211014T220000 DTSTAMP:20260424T023304 CREATED:20211002T040653Z LAST-MODIFIED:20211002T164227Z UID:8276-1634239800-1634248800@riverarts.org SUMMARY:Drink & Draw Oct DESCRIPTION:Drink & Draw \n \n Register for Event\n \n \n \n \n \n Thursday: October 14 • November 4 • December 2 • January 6145 Palisade Street\, Studio # 412A Hudson River LandingAdmission: $20 per session. You must register and pay in advance below for each session.
