Show Sat/Sun/Mon/Tues, June 27-30, 2009 C-3 The Park Record 'Entropy* to premiere Submitted by Julie Nester Gallery Julie Nester Gallery plans to open "Entropy,1' an exhibition of new paintings by Jeff Fontaine, for Independence Day. The exhibition will run from July 3 - 29. There will be a reception for the artist on Friday, July 3, 5:30 -8 p.ni. Jeff Fontaine is a painter from Portland. Ore. His medium is oil and mixed media on steel. In this latest series of paintings Fontaine focuses on the innate beauty create'd as manmade objects break down and naturally age. Each work is based on photographs the artist has taken of old signs, rusting train cars and crumbling architecture. Many of the patterns and the imagery in the paintings are taken directly from these documented surfaces. They are recreated in his work to loosely reference the function of the original object. To emphasize this, the artist often employs industrial stencils to mimic the lettering that appeared on the original object. The entire process is a controlled attempt at reproducing and suspending the natural breakdown of things, or entropy. The fun starts June 14th! 10am - 4pm ~ Every Sunday through September 27th (Excluding Aug. 2nd of the Kimball Arts Festival) No need to vacation SUNDAYcation! PHOTO OF COURTESY OF JULIE NESTER GALLERY Jeff Fontaine's work will be at Julie Nester July 3. Fontaine describes the paintings accordingly, "My current work consists of "quilted" metal panels, which play on color balance, textures, lines and geometric juxtapositions. The material used is salvaged as well as new metal that I manipulate in my studio. The natural process of rusting and pitting are sped up yet con- trolled to create the desired composition using water, heat and pigment." This will be Fontaine's first solo exhibit in Utah. His work has previously been featured in exhibitions in Seattle. WA; Los Angeles, CA; Portland, OR: Aspen, CO; Sun Valley, ID and Beilingham, WA. Unique every week!

"It's kind of like art jewelry," Doogan said by way of description. "Every year I explore new ideas so we always have something different." Miles and Doogan have participated in the Kimball Park City Arts Festival since 1996 and are regulars at the Utah Arts Festival, one of the few from Summit County at this years event. *'It's a hard show to get into and we've been lucky to be selected all these years," Doogan said. The couple also sells at shows in Columbus, Ohio; Chicago; Ann Arbor, Mich.; and Scottsdale, Ariz. The selection process is strenuous, but so, too, is the build-up to shows when the unromantic rigors of producing inventory press. "Right before a large show, we get pretty frantic," Doogan said. Selling at the arts fest can be grueling. Doogan and Miles have to man their booth, No. 138 located outside the City County building, from noon to 11 p.m. for four consecutive r \\ V •Donate your gently used items •FLOCK your friends & family! i GREG MARSHALL/RAflK RECORD Michael Doogan and Anita Miles hang a banner at their booth at the Utah Arts Festival. days. "It's a marathon." Doogan confided. "'It seems like it goes over 100 degrees most days. It's just something you get through." The festival, although lucrative, attracts patrons from well outside sophisticated art circles. Doogan recalled one incredulous customer who asked where the company bought its merchandise. Doogan tactfully explained that they didn't buy anything; they made it. A veteran potter "I don't really have a slow season anymore," Simister said with a sigh. "When you have nothing to do. there's still something to do. You're always busy as an artist because you're always creating." And hawking. Already selling merchandise at his booth Thursday at the Utah Arts Festival, the potter detailed his schedule. His season began in February with a wholesale show in Philadelphia. The bulk of his summer season runs from May to August with sporadic shows in September. In total, he plans to do 11 shows this year, including the Park City Arts Festival. For the festival this weekend, and to fulfill backlogged orders, Simister fired 350 cubic feet of pottery, about eight loads, in the kiln. He typically stocks his booth with about 1,000 pieces, many of them brandished with herringbone and landscape designs. "I really love what I do, so I'm willing to get up early in the morning," he said. The Utah Arts Festival at Library and Washington Squares in Salt Lake City, runs from noon to 11 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Admission is free for kids 12 and younger. Adult tickets cost $10 and seniors $5. A Non Profit Organization Sponsored by For more information & to find out I what's happening this week?
