Amy
Vogel:
At Two
with
Nature
and
Melissa
Mytty:
Urban
Couture.
Amy
Vogel
(Chicago,
IL)
makes
paintings
and
sculpture
based
on her
vacations
in northern
Michigan.
Open
and
vast,
her
landscapes
are
filled
with
trees,
evergreens
and
remnants
of man
- trailers,
fencing,
chopped
wood
for
fuel.
Painted
on prepared
linen
mounted
on masonite,
Vogel's
works
are
formed
with
lively
marks
that
sit
upon
and
absorb
into
her
unique
ground.
Melissa
Mytty
is from
Birmingham,
MI.
She
schooled
at the
College
for
Creative
studies
earning
her
BFA
in 2005
and
at Cranbrook
Academy
of Art
receiving
her
MFA
in 2007.
In this
exhibition
(the
artist's
first
since
graduating),
Melissa
continues
to explore
cultural
issues
within
the
framework
of a
cup
and
its
saucer.
Informed
by fashion
and
urban
street
life,
Mytty
created
graffitti-like
volumes
that
hold
oddly
playful
and
sensual
cups.
She
is currently
an artist-in-residence
at The
Clay
Studio
in Philadelphia,
PA.
I
am delighted
to be
a part
of Art
Detroit
Now.
It will
be a
great
way
to celebrate
the
artists
and
art
institutions
that
give
life
to metropolitan
Detroit.
