EDITOR’S NOTE Every issue of the magazine comes together in its own way, some more intentional and thematic than others. Each one starts off as an amalgam of candidates and possibilities, taking shape as an ever-shifting shortlist of intriguing artists, images, photographs and ideas, and gradually merges into its own intuitive aesthetic and visual dialogue.

This edition, we proudly feature MADaboutART, a non-profit organization in South Africa, selected by 1340Foundation for this quarter. MADaboutART was founded in 2001 to fight HIV using art and education.

Its award-winning curriculum for children and youth uses art as the platform to ignite imagination, have fun and achieve social change. We are therefore extremely proud to be featuring this inspiring organization for this quarter. Proceeds from our Q3 1340Art Magazine competition are being donated toward this incredible cause.

The artists featured in this issue are diverse, yet all of them somehow seem to deal in discovering new meanings and experiences.

In this edition, we have featured more photography than usual. These photographers have emerged through the act of representing the overlooked visual flotsam of the ordinary, turning it into something exceptionally noteworthy.

artists and the artworks they create. Once again in this edition I have had the privilege of discovering a plethora of talent and learn more about some of our amazing featured artists, who they are, where they come from, what they’re passionate about. At 1340Art Magazine, we get to delve into each particular piece of art or photograph, considering the subject matter as well as the overall message, meaning, or mood. We can, when looking closely, even examine some of the materials and techniques used to help create the work that first caught our eye.

All of these elements add to our appreciation of art, whether it’s hanging on the wall of a museum, a gallery, or our living room. But in this edition, I have paid particular attention to the details and stories behind every piece, hoping for these to be felt through each flip of the page, lifted off the paper and transformed into the kind of emotion that inspires all of us, whether art experts or enthusiasts.

I hope you enjoy discovering all sorts of captivating details within a beautiful and meaningful package of ideas, words and images that we have prepared for our readers in this edition.

As the editor in chief I have the opportunity to learn so many fascinating things about

Roy Owh, Editor in Chief

TONY RUBINO Heavily influenced by the streets on New

York City, Rubino’s work as an artist seeks to comment on pop culture, celebrity, nostalgia and the current melees’ of information received through technology.

He uses textures, images, and elements directly from the streets of Manhattan fused and juxtaposed to create the highest quality drivel.

“Like paper’s transformation from plants and trees to the lightest malleable medium, collage allows me to express paper’s wonderful ability to effortlessly represent differing weights and dimensions. The creative process of collage, with its initial deconstruction and then refiguring, is an ongoing experiment into new portals of meaning, reflecting the extraordinary continuity of paper’s own life cycle.”

ART IS A PLACID LAKE IN THE BUSY CITY LIFE. Bo Mi Jo - Mimosa Saturday Acrylic on Canvas - 91.4 x 152.4 x 3.8 cm

”Sometimes it’s like a game I play; to tell stories without saying a word. The narrative is always the starting point, the process and result in all my work. To fit pieces, to cut and glue, to break and mend a story together, something new is to be told. I can think that I choose to tell a story but in the end it is always the story that tells me it’s own tale. That is what it’s all about for me. “ Sanna Brantestad - Lost in the Shop - An Adventure at the Grocer y Store (Left) Polyurethane Foam, Recycled Plastic, & Brass - 6 x 6 x 7 cm

The

contemporary self is in a constant flux between virtual and reality. The twenty-first century is consumed with the white noise of social media and the Internet. Kurtinecz uses the figure as a vessel into the psychological state; the impact of unfiltered information onto the mind and it’s relation to the observer. They are a hybrid of flesh and distorted digital code. Kurtinecz views them as slowly dissolving into a digital persona.

WILLIAM grob Matriarchy TBA (Right) Photography & Acrylic -110 x 75 cm

A Peaceful Moment in a Hectic World (Below) Photography & Acrylic -190 x 110 cm

William comments on social issues and ultimately honesty with imagery. Honesty has changed; in the era of film we believed photography but since the ability to digitally edit and manipulate, what is to believe anymore? So what we perceive is not what we necessarily see when we live in a world which holds no truths and no answers, only beliefs. Photography holds as many lies as truths so by synthesizing painting with his photographs William projects a visualisation that captures both the instant, and the immortal. The real and the surreal. William’s current project is about a male perspective trying to empathize with something he could never know. The opposite sex.

his work is created. The simplicity of the forms and lines allow the shot/damaged parts on the vessels to be highlighted and accentuated. By bridging the aesthetics and the materials within his work, Nashef asks the viewer to form a connection to their surroundings, realizing that there is no perfection, only an adaptation to our current status and situation.

Michael Nashef - Step Away From the Window (Right)

history, peace has been a scarce commodity in any human civilization, and war seems to be a dominant theme.

Destruction is one of the prevailing outcomes of these wars. Having lived in wartorn Lebanon for half of his life, Nashef has seen a lot of destruction and damage that has been imposed on beautiful architecture.

It takes months, even years, to design, build and finish a building, yet it takes less than a second to bring it crumbling down with a powerful bomb. Nevertheless, with all the damage the Lebanese architecture sustained, these buildings still function as vessels for human life. The buildings kept them safe, sheltered them, housed them, and shielded them. Seeing the decimation of these structure has caused Nashef to crave perfection, and he grew attracted to the clean lines and curves of modern architecture, which he now pursues in his work. Influenced by the vernacular of architecture and building materials, Nashef has constructed structures which double as vessels. These vessels are distilled representations of war-torn buildings, whose functional resilience come from the stable and strong material used, cement. This truth, coupled with his inquisitive nature, has brought Michael to create innovative processes and methods in which

“I always thought i was a practical person, someone who created with their hands, i was a musician for years, touring months out of the year making music, but the instrument was making the sound for me, i couldn’t reach out and touch it, i needed something more tangible. I moved to photography, to create something i could see, hoping to be able to fill the void, but still felt short changed, as the camera was the instrument, making the image for me. This frustration, and search for tangibility with what i create, led me to start printing and ripping up my photos, painting over them, drawing on them, change them to what i truly saw inside my own head. With my art, i have reached the end of my 15 year search for tangible creativity, and have began a new journey, in to the world of art.”

MAD ABOUT ART

MADaboutART was founded in 2001 to

fight HIV using art and education. Pioneered in South Africa, its award-winning curriculum for children and youth uses art as the platform to ignite imagination, have fun and achieve social change.

Many young people living in poverty around the world experience anger and low self-esteem; becoming trapped in a spiral of vulnerability that destroys hope. The burden of HIV potentiates emotional trauma and isolation. MADaboutART’s programme combines validated narrative therapy and psycho-social techniques to change lives by inspiring positive life choices and celebrating diversity. Independent evaluation showed a significant positive impact on well-being.

Permeated

by a strong sense of the relationship between decadence and beauty, Iluá Hauck da Silva’s practise explores different conundrums of the human condition. Hauck da Silva combines a wealth of materials and techniques to form a complex and meticulous visual vocabulary, as well as an intrinsic visual dialogue between matter and meaning. Her work is charged with subversive and transgressive connotations: as multiple layers of meaning unfold; beauty, pain, poetry, irony, and a visceral simplicity crystallise.

‘Palpitations’ is a series of meticulously made glass hearts, which were exclusively commissioned by the Kabinett Gallery in Boston for their inaugural exhibition, ‘Killers and Thrillers’. The hearts are beautifully nested in carefully chosen vintage saucers combining two of Ilua’s greatest passions: art making and collecting antiques. ‘Palpitations’ resonates with the uplifting and endearing aspects of love, as the display of hearts in fine antique saucers creates a precious and heart warming visual effect.

love is the ultimate
