VAUGHAN

Robert Indiana (1928-2018) was an American Pop artist inspired by signs, billboards, and commercial logos. His fascination with type and typesetting and the significance it imparts began early in his life. He went on to create numerous large-scale and public artworks, perhaps the most famous of which is his LOVE sculptures and paintings featuring alphanumeric characters. Often, the numbers included in his work are not arranged according to numerical order, but rather to represent dates of personal significance.

Philip Vaughan (b. 1945) is a British artist who grew up between France and England. He specializes in sculpture, drawings, paintings, and public art commissions. He is known primarily for his public light sculpture outside London's Hayward Gallery, a neon addition to the city's skyline. Its colors would adjust in correlation to the wind's intensity and direction. Vaughan continues to experiment with light sculpture, as well as other mediums. Most recently, he has been working a lot in gardens and using natural materials like bamboo.
Le Corbusier aka Charles-Édouard Jeanneret (1887–1965), was a Swiss designer, architect, painter, and writer. He is widely regarded as a pioneer of modern architecture and urban planning and the father of the artistic movement known as Purism. Purism represented Le Corbusier’s attempt to make sense of post-WWI Europe by restoring scientific regularity and order to the world around him. Purism emphasized simplified forms with minimal detail while embracing technology and the machine.

VALLEJO

(2015)
Linda Vallejo (b. 1951) is a Chicana painter and sculptor based in Los Angeles, CA. Growing up, Vallejo called several far-flung locales her home, including Montgomery, AL and Madrid, Spain. While attending high school in Montgomery, the school became the first in Alabama to integrate. Vallejo bore direct witness to skin color’s role in the dynamics of class, power, and identity. Later, Vallejo returned to Spain to study printmaking, and it was here that her appreciation for western classical fine art was born. In response to these classical influences, Vallejo developed a minimalist series informed by US Census data and statistics, called the Brown Dot Project, representative of the US Latino population, at large.

bG Gallery is pleased to announce The Straight Edge: Math, Science, and Art a live, virtual conversation between consultants Christina Warner and Alex Guajardo who will deconstruct the role mathematics plays in the visual arts. They will be exploring the commonalities
and intersections between science, technology, engineering, math, and the
arts, and using the arts as a catalyst to explore habits and processes of
thinking in these areas.
