Andreas Kocks ��___________________________________________��

German artist, Andreas Kocks, works in massive and meticulously crafted installations of cut paper. Working solely with paper and a limited color palette, Kocks’ forms seek to evoke and balance elements of four artistic genres: the linearity of drawing, the painterly brushstroke, the site-speci!c element of architecture, and the physicality of sculpture. His works can be seen in museums and private collections in Europe and America.

Jessica Craig-Martin��___________________________________________

Given her background as a press photographer for Vanity Fair, Vogue, and other publications, New York-based photographer Jessica Craig-Martin is granted access to an otherwise inaccessible world of socialites, models, actors, and other elite individuals. In contrast to all of the champagne, glamorous gowns, sequins, silk, designer duds, and opulent baubles on the individuals that inhabit her work, Craig-Martin’s photographs present moments of "awed beauty and stark reality – a human vulnerability in the otherwise unapproachable privileged world. Her work is included in the collections of the Museum of Fine Arts Boston, the New Museum, the Progressive Corporation, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, and the

Whitney Museum of American Art.��

Annie Morris��___________________________________________��

London-based artist Annie Morris was born in the UK in 1978. Since completing her degree from Ecole des Beaux-Arts Paris in 2002, where she studied under Giuseppe Penone, she

Dustin Yellin��___________________________________________

Dustin Yellin has taken the contemporary art world by storm with his large-scale “sculptural paintings.” By adhering clippings, found objects, and painted images to sheets of glass and then layering the glass panels into a single, uni!ed block, he creates stunning, three-dimensional collages. In these works, everyday detritus assembled into human forms seem to "oat freely within large blocks of glass. Yellin’s work has frequently been described as dystopic and seen as a commentary on the hubris and failures that mark the human condition. Not surprisingly, Yellin has always held an interest in collecting and is particularly drawn to bizarre objects that re"ect mankind’s dubious efforts to construct himself and improve the world he lives in.

Tracey Rocca ___________________________________________

Tracy Rocca’s work consists of intricate layers that are carefully built over time to achieve their characteristic luminosity and unique sense of depth. Rocca begins with color palettes as inspiration and from there allows the colors to convey the mood of the

landscape. Her work has been exhibited throughout the United States and is included in the United States Embassies Collection, the Microsoft Art Collection, and the University

of New Mexico Collection.

Tony Scherman��___________________________________________

Tony Scherman is best known for his masterful encaustic techniques, where pigment and wax create lush, textured, and dramatic surfaces. His portraiture and still-lifes are carefully imbued with a dream-like intensity and the force of his vision. While Scherman calls upon historical !gures and periods, he chooses to embellish his subjects with modern themes—thereby evoking symbolism and deeper meaning. Scherman exhibits internationally and is also featured in various public and corporate collections.

Etsuko Ichikawa��___________________________________________

Etsuko Ichikawa’s ‘pygrographs’ and ‘aquagraphs’ are drawings made by !re and water, capturing and eternalizing the immediacy of a moment. e format of her work varies from small two-dimensional images to large-scale installations and performance-based

work. Ichikawa has completed several artist in residence programs at the Pilchuck Glass School and has been recognized by the Andy Warhol Foundation for Visual Arts and the National Endowment for the Art.

Christopher Boffoli��___________________________________________��

Northwest artist Christopher Boffoli combines miniature, hand-painted !gurines from Germany with staged arrangements of food and beverages to create clever photographic vignettes. Inspired by an unusual combination of magazine food photography and the 18th century fable “Gulliver’s Travels,” Boffoli explores how inverting

the proportions of people and their surroundings create unexpected points of interest. ��

Ethan Murrow��___________________________________________��

Ethan Murrow uses !lm and photography to create farcical, theatrical narratives that are then translated into large-scale graphite drawings. ese beautifully rendered drawings focus on characters as outrageous innovators and absurd explorers capturing a sense of adventure, satire, fun and defeat. e absolute con!dence and passion of Murrow’s characters are intended to stand in contrast to the possibly dubious outcome of their efforts. Ethan explains, “I both admire and fear this kind of certainty.
