Vivarium Gallery Still Life 01 & 04

OCTOBER 10th - NOVEMBER 9th 2009

2130 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.
DIRECTIONS TO VIVARIUM GALLERY: 2130 Yew Street, one block west of Arbutus, between 5th & 6th on the east side of the street. Wheelchair accessible, converted window-front gallery on the ground floor.

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

Vivarium Gallery Paths of the Sea

AUGUST 1st - SEPTEMBER 1st 2008

2130 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 installations.

The Vault A Story of Creation

SEPTEMBER 7, 2006

225 E Houston, New York, NY

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.

"MOMENT OF CLARITY", 2004, DVD SERIES OF 5 + 2AP
Dance: Ayelen Liberona
Cello: Rubin Koeheli
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.
