Yew Street, Vancouver, BC
Please
join us at the VIVARIUM GALLERY for a reception party for Christopher
Rodrigues, Saturday, October 10th from 6-9. On display until
November 9th are the artist proofs of Still Life 01 & Still
Life 04 as well as a Personal Altar. The digital Cibachrome prints,
sourcing still life flower paintings from the Dutch Golden Age,
were first publicly exhibited in March
2009 at the SCOPE Art Fair in New York. Christopher's Personal
Altar aims to gain a deeper understanding of the old tradition
of Still
Life in Contemporary Art, through
the practice of altar making. Altar making is a common tradition
that bridges all religions. Beyond organized religion, personal
Altars can be found in many house-holds around the world. This
summer the Vancouver audience was given the opportunity to learn
about
and examine the Dutch Golden Age of painting, in
a beautiful curated exhibition at the Vancouver Art Gallery. This
exhibition extended many peoples understanding of the visual
language of Still Life, a language that is necessary to interpret
Christopher's
work.

RARE Gallery Still
Land - Ryan Brennan & Christopher Rodrigues
|
INDEFINITELY PENDING
|
521 W. 26th Street, New York,
NY
Christopher
uses the computer and Photoshop as his artistic mediums in
three ongoing series of works -- Planets, Islands, Still
Lifes -- that examine the relationship between Nature and Technology
as well as photography and painting. Employing techniques
that
resemble collage and painting, he absents the camera from
the process of creating his photographs. The results, printed
as
Cibachromes and face-mounted to Plexiglas, are both hyper-real
and fantastical, connecting to traditional notions of the
still life and landscape while looking forward to a digitally
enhanced
universe. Each of the three series is produced in an edition
of seven. Chris will participate in his second exhibition
at RARE this fall. RARE Gallery is located on 521 W. 26th Street,
New York (212) 268-1520

Yew Street, Vancouver, BC
Please
join us for the opening of the VIVARIUM GALLERY; a new gallery
in the affluent neighborhood of Kitsilano, Vancouver, founded
by Jamie Griffiths and Christopher Rodrigues .A diptych,
by Christopher Rodrigues, will be the first work to show at
the
VIVARIUM GALLERY. The two 80" X 96" paintings were
worked up from ball-point pen sketches produced on Wreck
Beach during the summer of 2007; translated to paint over
the autumn,
winter and spring. The work considers the element of water
in relation to the human body and mind; metaphorically equating
the creation process and deep-sea-fishing. The diptych exhibited
at the Vivarium Gallery through August, depict four chimera
from the sea; each couple witnessing the conception of their
child. The narrative pauses for a moment, while these creatures
embrace, as their paths cross under the sea.
The VIVARIUM GALLERY is an online gallery with a 'real' ground
level window space to hang 2D visual art, present 3D art objects,
and with a 12x12ft rear projection screen for video projection

Christopher
Rodrigues presents a slide show depicting a story of creation.
A series of images have been chosen to represent a two years
program of work, observing how nature and technology relate.
The video begins as a series of flowers and creatures that
become composed into gardens and floating islands. The islands
become compressed together and flooded to become a small, walkable
planet. The images then move through a planet phase, making
a break from the previous images. The final two images move
from a sun to a star and then whites out. The

Perform: Fishing for Jade Blue Embers
These two powerful
artists set up a camera on a rock in Upper New York State and
filmed themselves performing. There is a feeling of cermony
as the piece builds. This is one of their first of many performance
collaborations.
Christopher digitally
super-imposed an image of a hand-laser playing with
feedback from a TV screen looped with a camera filming
itself. He used many layers of varying transparency,
approaching video like he painted in glazes. This digital
video led his artistic practice towards the long-term
exploration of how technology and nature relate. Developing
new, creative ways to use simple, existing, technology.
This video contrasts the mechanical image he created,
with the video of a natural, artistic human ritual.

Bird Stolen by FEDEX over the
atlantic ocean
|
| MAY 6, 2004 |
Bird,
1997
Acrylic
on Canvas 5' X 3'
I
painted this piece in 1997. The final image seems to morph
from a dove to a parrot, a porpoise to a whale.
It was painted upside down as a vortex or black hole sucking in
light. Once this painting was completed I turned it upside down
to reveal the finished image.
I last saw this painting on the night of May 5th 2004 while I unstretched
and rolled it up. The next morning I took the painting, packed
in a black tube with
dented
silver caps and used Fed Ex to mail it to a collector in London
England.
The following 3-5 business days I enthusiastically
followed it's journey across the Atlantic, with the use of my tracking
number. After a failed first attempt, no further efforts were taken
to deliver my work. After two weeks I contacted the recipient to
see if she could get the painting moving again on her end. The
tracking number is 844554190304.
I called the Fed Ex office and the agent told me the package arrived
in England opened with the painting removed. Their tracing process
provided no leads to the thief and they concluded if they find
the painting they will contact me. They never contacted me again.
If anyone has any information about the location of this painting
I would love to know where it has ended up.
I wrote an extended letter this website URL on the back of the
painting, so there is a great chance that the thief is
watching me.

Digital Cibachrome print
11" x 14", Limited Edition of 21 + 3AP
ABOUT THE IMAGE
Flower 01 was created in 2003 using
Photoshop
and the
computer
as my
sole medium, and developing techniques that resembled
collage and painting. An extensive project, examining the practice
of landscape and still
life in contemproary art today, was modeled on this first image.
