x Hirschfield - #19, 30x40, $2600 His pieces are very nice, but I'm not sure of the real meaning. It seems that the argument that's been made for him is that his work will generate conversation, but I feel as if it is conceptually easy, and what will be said is more like "huh, we're looking at art about looking at art," and then it will die. I think other pieces we are looking at have a better conversation in mind.
2. Jae Ko- JK526, (graphite piece), $5,500
JuliJulio Bittencourt , Prestes Maia, $12,000
4. Viviane Sassen, Elvis, $9,000
=5. Sarah Anne Johnson, artic wonderland I find her work interesting, but I feel as if the collection already has pieces that deal with envirnomentalism, like the mine pieces. Also, the idea of placing things on the photographic plane is similar to what Bremer is doing, but I think he is doing it much more compellingly.
6. Matthew Buckingham *($12,000& &18,000)
7. Luke Jerram, HIV & SARS, $5,000
8. Fred Cray* (Travel Diaries, $6,000& $5,000) His works are striking visually, but they seem to lose track of their meaning in all the layers they are made up of. His work is also very similar in process to Doug Keyes who's works I believe will garner more attention
9. Doug Keyes, The Holy Bible, 15x22.5, $2100, Cat in the Hat, 14x17, $1900, Invisible Universe, 22x33 $2600, Sugimoto, 14x23, $3200
10. Jenny Morgan $5000-$12,000
11. Patrick Jacobs -$8,000-$10,000
12. Sebastiaan Bremer $9,000
13.Lalla Essayadi * $9,000 Her work is interesting and beautiful, but our collection does already include works that deal with national identity.
14. Jeff Brouws – Semiotics (10,000), Farms, (12,000), Freight Cars ($8,500), Signs without Significance ($8,500) unframed
