The Pittsburgh Art Blog

pittsburgh galleries is reborn anew as The Pittsburgh Art Blog. the blog features selected pittsburgh artists and upcoming exhibits with photos from the artists and galleries. since the major press outlets do not go beyond a directory listing of exhibits, blogs are needed to promote pittsburgh artists and their work. the blog also calls attention to the inferiority complex of pittsburgh art and how it's perpetuated by the major players in town. Started on August 20, 2007.

pittsburgh area galleries and art venues are listed at the sister site www.PghGalleries.com.

the blog and website are volunteer projects from fine art photographer and pittsburgh art advocate rick byerly, www.RickByerly.com.

Artist Swoon Lecture CMU Tuesday April 8, 5pm 2008 McConomy

LECTURE BY ARTIST SWOON, TUESDAY, APRIL 8 at 5 PM, MCCONOMY AUDITORIUM, CMU

SWOON is a Brooklyn-based street artist who creates life-sized portraits of people she meets, using woodcut block prints and paper cutouts. Swoon’s galleries are city walls, often in the environments that inspired the prints. A devout collaborator, she founded the Toyshop Collective and worked with them on poster campaigns, billboard alterations and sculptural installations. She recently inspired the Miss Rockaway Armada, a fleet of junk rafts on the Mississippi River piloted by artists and performers. Swoon’s next project is Braddock Active Arts, a large-scale community art center in an abandoned church in Braddock, PA, meant to catalyze sustainable community revitalization through art. For the past four years Swoon’s work has appeared in unlikely locales across the U.S., France, England, Mexico and Iraq. She has also shown at Art Basel Miami Beach, a 2005 solo exhibition at Deitch Projects, PS1’s Contemporary Art Center, MoMA and the Brooklyn Museum.
