frank arnold art & gallery


unser freund patrick corr hatte uns auf diesen künstler in san josé del cabo aufmerksam gemacht: der amerikaner frank arnold hat sich hat hier seine galerie mitsamt atelier und wohnug unter einem dach verwirklicht. Außer vielen großen gemälden und skulturen laden zwei im showroom ausliegende, eindruckvolle bildbände ein, sein umfangreiches schaffen zu entdecken.

kleine episode: frank hat als 8jähriger erfahren, dass er adoptiert wurde und daher kann man oft die zahl 8 in seinen kunstwerken entdecken. Solltet ihr nach san josé del cabo kommen, frank arnold art & gallery ist ein „must see“.

closing reception


many thanks to gail and fred tieken for this incredible event. many thanks also to all my co_workers. without their contribution this exhibition wouldn´t excist. and many thanks to everybody who had visited this co_works show.

… see us in houston, october 1st.

Here some comments about the show:

Went to check out the Co_Works show for the last time (so sad!) at Tieken Gallery. Thank you Gail and Fred Tieken, Norbert and Bettina Guthier for gracing us with this world class show in the Tiekens‘ amazingly gorgeous gallery. David Paul and Kimber Jones in attendance too! The Guthiers travel the world to capture brilliant images. Next, selected artists paint pieces inspired by an image, thus creating a Co_Work. A painting and image of the same dimensions hang together as one, resulting in visual and emotional interplay between the two mediums and their subject matter.

Co_Works will be shown in Houston beginning October 1. © anne m. pylon

salvation mountain


Nicht „salvation hill“ hatte leonard knight (*1931 – † 2014) sein werk genannt sondern ganz unbescheiden „salvation mountain“. Im trocken, heißen klima californiens musste ihn die erleuchtung von höchster stelle getroffen haben. „bible“, „jesus loves you“, „god! ist mit riesigen letter über all zu lesen. Lehm, vermischt mit stroh, hatte er tonnenweise auf den hügel gekleistert und bund angemalt, zwei wasserfälle mit blumen und eben die schriftzüge „god is love“ und „say jesus i´m a sinner, please come upon my body and into my heart“. Tja, und der hügel des outsider künstlers kneight hat´s geschafft 2002 zum nationalen kulturgut der usa zu werden.

uncoming exhibition


erste co_works ausstellung in amerika !!  anbei der einladungstext der tieken gallery in phoenix:

Tieken Gallery Presents Co_Works: A Transatlantic Venture with Guest Curator, Norbert Guthier

Imagine you could travel the world, stopping wherever you wish to meet your favorite artists and to visit with them in their studios, spending a day or two watching them at work.

For Norbert Guthier of Germany, this is not a dream but a reality that he has been living for the last several years. Not only has Guthier been visiting artists throughout the Americas, he has created a book, Co_Works, that combines photographs by Guthier with original artwork from the artists inspired by these photos.

Living the ultimate curator’s dream, Guthier is now working on a series of shows featuring these Co_Works with the premier American showing at Tieken Gallery opening February 27, 2016.

Featured in the show will be artists Emilio Martinez, Miami, FL; Matt Sesow, Washington, DC; Heather Wilcoxon, San Francisco, CA; Matthias Bolz, Dresden, Germany; Barbara Fisher, Asheville, NC; Brad Moody, Houston, TX; and Fred Tieken, Paradise Valley, AZ & Venice Beach, CA; with photography by Norbert Guthier, Frankfurt, Germany.

The opening reception on February 27 will be by RSVP. An event page will be posted on the Facebook Tieken Gallery page in mid February so please sign up early. We are expecting a full-to-capacity opening and you must be on the guest list to attend this event.

February 27 – March 6, 2013, Opening Hosted Reception, Saturday, February 27, 6pm to 9pm

Closing Reception, Sunday, March 6, 2013, 2pm to 5pm, find us on facebook
