Slater speaks of his inspiration:<blockquote>I became really interested in this symmetrical rivet that happens in things like cereal boxes or in automobiles: It's a shape that dips down and comes back up. I liked the idea of borrowing composition, borrowing color from places where that color or form exists for a reason and through the reals of visual art being able to look at it formally, without having to worry about what it's function is.</blockquote>The artist reflecting on the minimalism in his work,<blockquote>Like us, each painting grows into its individuality. My work is simple but nuanced, sophisticated as well as clumsy.</blockquote><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Ccd3GbP8iBo/Tt6Mgn42y4I/AAAAAAAAAEk/IIDbqaOVSeQ/s1600/MWG_Slater_Warp_Rider.jpg"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 204px; height: 307px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Ccd3GbP8iBo/Tt6Mgn42y4I/AAAAAAAAAEk/IIDbqaOVSeQ/s320/MWG_Slater_Warp_Rider.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5683134271879302018" border="0" /></a><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I6gW-g1VxCI/Tt6MuerwKiI/AAAAAAAAAEw/7FQa8cBs8kE/s1600/MWG_Slater_Sleeping_Giant.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 225px; height: 304px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-I6gW-g1VxCI/Tt6MuerwKiI/AAAAAAAAAEw/7FQa8cBs8kE/s320/MWG_Slater_Sleeping_Giant.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5683134509926591010" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />ABOVE, TOP, LEFT TO RIGHT: Chunkenstein, 2011, acrylic on canvas 9 3/4 x 7 x 1 3/4 inches; Warp Rider, 2011, acrylic on canvas, 9 3/4 x 7 x 1 3/4 inches; Sleeping Giant, 2011, acrylic on canvas, 9 3/4 x 7 x 1 3/4 inches.

Both depend on light to achieve the desired effect." - Dr. Martin Steffens, <i>kunsthistoriker</i></blockquote><i></i></div><div>
<br /></div><div>Opening August 19 in Berlin, artist <b><a href="http://martywalkergallery.com/artists/jay-shinn.html">Jay Shinn</a></b> and German artist <b>Axel Anklam</b> present new work in the exhibition <b><i><a href="http://www.kunstraumt27.de/">Luxplus</a></i></b> at <b><a href="http://www.kunstraumt27.de/">kunstraum t27</a></b>, on view through September 18, 2011.</div><div>
<br /></div><div>Poet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's last words, "Luxplus," or "more light," describes the metaphysical experience presented by the two artists who, by using light, time, and innovative materials, create a strong sense of ethereal infinity. Jay Shinn continues to juxtapose perception with reality, creating imaginary spaces and textures, seeking to transcend material limitations. Shinn's luminescent objects are reminiscent of holograms and appear to float while also embodying a startling sense of three-dimensionality, while Anklam uses light through translucent materials, questioning the durability and elasticity of the object itself.</div><div><i></i></div><div>
