Students will incorporate radial designs or animal motifs inspired from indigenous art. Also, we will look at famous folk artists like

Artist Advocate Magazine

The Benefits for Artists Considering Artist Advocate Magazine
www.artistadvocatemagazine.com

Dear Artist:

We've been sending you information about how to connect to additional
galleries though our publication Artist Advocate Magazine. I'd like to
make you aware of four new things:

1. Change of Design to Look Higher-End:
We've changed the design of the magazine to reflect a higher-quality,
upper-class image. I think you'll like it. Its' clean and it does not
place any text on the cover image, which is the same approach we take with
another of our art magazines.

2. Digital Offering to Give You Increased Reach:
We will be producing a digital copy of the magazine. Its pages will flip
just like a real magazine, but, unlike a real magazine, the reader can
click on your listing and be taken to your website. You'll receive a
digital copy with your listing that you can e-mail to others. The digital
copy will also be e-mailed to the gallery list AND will be housed on our
website.

3. Welcoming Estates, Framers, and Services to Galleries:
A gallery we spoke to suggested that many galleries and art consultants
handle the estates of artists and are often seeking additional galleries
to represent the artworks. We welcome advertising for estates.
Additionally, we welcome anyone seeking to reach art galleries, including
framers, lighting companies, and other services to the gallery industry.

4. View New Video About the Magazine:
We have produced a new video and posted it online to answer some of your
questions about the magazine. Click below to view it.

Arts Clayton - August Events

August Events
Celebrate Art!
Thursday, August 7, 2008
5:30-7:30pm FREE
Bring a friend and enjoy amazing fine art from local Georgia Artists as we celebrate the openings of the "Explorations-Art & Science", and "The Road Traveled"

Beginning with “The Road Traveled” Exhibit, First, Second and Third Places ribbons will be awarded to show entries in the main gallery exhibits. Attendees at the opening reception will also be given the opportunity to decide the “Patron Award".
August Exhibitions
Sponsored by Arts Clayton Board of Directors
“Explorations – Art and Science”
Science and art are sister disciplines. The work of the scientist and artist involves exploration, discovery and method. Science has used visual means to communicate knowledge dating back to astronomical observations. Historically artists have been inspired by science and have employed scientific methods in developing materials and techniques. The exhibition shows that scientific and artistic points of view are compatible and each of the four artists uses science as the foundation for their work with a broad range of scientific disciplines represented.
Two of the artists work within a medical and anatomical context. Marti Hand explores biological science, the pharmaceutical/medical interface and its relation to health and Ann Rowles uses the deceptively benign techniques of crochet and knitting to explore disturbances of the body. Judy Parady chooses lyrical words used by particle physicists as a source for visual interpretations of the invisible in painting and three dimensional works. Mary O’Horo draws from themes found in new physics and astrophysics. These associations become translated into an abstract language which creates it own reality. This body of work offers a unique interpretation of scientific themes and an opportunity to consider the continuing influence of science in the arts. Show dates: August 5-September 2
“The Road Traveled”
“Oh the places you’ll go!” – Dr. Seuss. Our lives lead us down many roads, whether it is the one less traveled or a heavily worn path. The open road calls to some. For others, only one that matters is that road which leads home. For still others, it isn’t the physical trip through life that is important, but the creative process or spiritual journey. See how the Exhibiting Artists creatively interpret this month's theme in a wide range of mediums and disciplines.
Judges panel: Marti Hand, Mary O’Horo, Judy Parady and Ann Rowles Show Dates: August 5-September 26
