The work seeks to provoke debates and questions about equality, in the sense of valuing the human being. Carpaneda takes inspiration from the urban element, and uses the language of the street along with his own experiences. Beggars, pop stars, punks and outcasts of all kinds are the object of his attention and look. In June 2012, some of his works were exhibited on 23 foot LED screens as part of "Art Takes Times Square" and were seen by over 1 million people. Carpaneda was also named as a Juror's Choice for Visual Art at the 2016 Seattle Erotic Art Festival.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together a collection of paintings depicting male nudes, by artist Fernando Carpaneda. "My sculptures and paintings are experimental works on material and feelings. I think I can explore new possibilities sculpting the human body and new forms. I worked for 15 years with assemblages before starting sculpting and through the assemblages I became a sculptor. It was a kind of a natural process. Most of my sculptures are portraits of friends, ex-lovers, porn stars and random guys. I transform my sculptures into a kind of reliquary, where you can identify several references to the models; Phrases, poetry, human hair. I followed this path because I wanted to create works that have a consequential meaning to me and a strong connection with my models, and so, my past experiences are always present. I wish my works can reach an audience that appreciates art regardless of being gay or straight. I like to do works that do not fit into the circuit of contemporary art. I like to go against the standard imposed by art institutions. I try to escape the contemporary visual aesthetics and I prefer follow lines of works that escape this contemporary aesthetic. My goal with my art is also to show other sides within the GLBTQ culture and society in general. By that, to open the minds of the audience to other possibilities within gay and punk art. My works speak of freedom, of being what you are, without fear of assuming your ideas and ideals.

Download or read book Punk Rock Boys written by Fernando Carpaneda and published by Blurb. This book was released on 2016-10-22 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Punk Rock Boys" is a catalog of 21 acrylic portraits depicting the contemporary punk rock generation in New York City. This collection is part of a series of works depicting the current New York hardcore scene. Fernando Carpaneda began his career at age thirteen painting landscapes and unpretentious portraits. He honed his craft and talent with every new piece created. Today, the young boy has become a man, his acclaimed art ever growing with international recognition and appreciation! The lack of social acceptance of "underground" and street culture depicted in his work made the early years of Fernando's career in Brasilia difficult to say the least. When a renowned art gallery owner suggested changes in Fernando's works to make them ''fit better", Carpaneda broke with the conventionality of art galleries and took off for a far more personal and radical artistic journey. He began to exhibit in unofficial spaces or just simply in the streets, he often got his inspiration from these very same places. With aggressive creativity and the unusual use of unorthodox materials (often coming from disposal), Carpaneda had finally established his art drawn from the streets. He was invited to participate in a collective exhibition at the infamous CBGB Gallery in New York in the year of 2000. CBGB's scene was definitely a door-opener for Carpaneda and paved his way to enter the international art circuit. Fernando Carpaneda was one of the first Brazilian artists, if not THE first one, to disseminate and systematically display punk art and homoerotic art. His voracious engagement in the cause of diversity and punk culture led him to exhibit at: Art Basel in Miami, the Tom of Finland Foundation in California, The Stax Museum of American Soul Music in Memphis and The Leslie Lohman Museum in New York. His works are included in multiple art collections, galleries
Download or read book Fernando Carpaneda written by Carpazine Art Magazine and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-17 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1980 and 1997, Fernando Carpaneda built countless assemblages using objects from his friends, lovers, and family members. Items such as: cigarette butts, empty cans, underwear, boxes of toothpaste, clothing, wood. From a diverse array of materials the artist also sculpted nude male figures using water-based clay. Most of the figures depicted in the assemblages are portraits of: friends, colleagues, sex workers, porn star, punks, and everyday people. The art of assemblage is based on the principle that any and all material can be incorporated into a work of art, creating a new set without losing its original meaning. It is a combination of elements into a larger set, where it is always possible to identify that each piece is compatible and considered art. By using various materials such as papers, fabrics, or wood "glued" to a canvas, the artist manages to overcome the limitations of the surface, thus breaking the limit of painting, creating a junction of painting, and sculpture. His voracious engagement in the cause of diversity and punk culture led him to exhibit at Art Basel in Miami, the Tom of Finland Foundation in California, The Stax Museum of American Soul Music in Memphis and The Leslie Lohman Museum of Art in New York to name a few. His works are included in multiple art collections, galleries and museums, also appearing in publications as The Best of Punk Globe Magazine, alongside Debbie Harry, Jamie Oliver (UK SUBS), Sid Vicious, Earl Slick, John Lydon, The Adicts, Glen Matlock, Joe Dallesandro, Andy Warhol, Pauley Perrete also in Treasures Of Gay Art, a book by Leslie Lohman Museum of Art, featuring Andy Warhol, Robert Mapplethorpe, Keith Haring, Jean Cocteau and many others. In June 18, 2012, some of his works were selected and exhibited at Times Square in New York, during the opening of the exhibition Art Takes Times Square. The works were exhibited in 10m2 LED panels covering 23 floors (Nasdaq screens, Thomson and Reuters, Clear Channel S
Download or read book Paintings by Fernando Carpaneda written by Carpazine Art Magazine and published by Blurb. This book was released on 2020-11-13 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My paintings are portraits of what I live, it is where I represent my points of view and my ideals. I usually use three processes for the creation of the paintings: living model, drawing, and photography. The paintings are made with acrylic paint on canvas. In the past I worked with oil painting, however, I had to stop due to allergic reactions with the paint. Working with acrylic paint gave me several options to build my technique and create a perfect finish using transparent layers in the works. My goal with my art is also to show other sides within the GLBTQIA culture and in all of society. By that, to open the minds of the audience to other possibilities within gay and contemporary art.

Download or read book The Best of Punk Globe Magazine written by Ginger Coyote and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-03 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ginger Coyote created Punk Globe Magazine in August 1977. She had seen a copy of the British fanzine Sniffing Glue and thought "Hey, I should do this!" San Francisco only had two music magazines and if you were not part of their clic, you got no exposure. Not only did she want to help underdog bands, she wanted to include people who attended the shows-sometimes they were the real entertainment. She also wanted to involve television and film. So in a way, Punk Globe Magazine was the original People Magazine. After the first couple of years the zine went from Xerox, to newsprint, to heavy stock, and eventually migrated to the Internet. 38 years later the magazine is still going strong with readers all over the world. This book includes stand-out interviews, together with brilliant photographs. Spotlighting a selection from the 38 years Punk Globe has been around - The Best of Punk Globe.

Download or read book Paid For My Journey Through Prostitution written by Rachel Moran and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2015-09-08 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An astonishingly brave memoir of prostitution and its lingering influence on a woman’s psyche and life. “The best work by anyone on prostitution ever, Rachel Moran’s Paid For fuses the memoirist’s lived poignancy with the philosopher’s conceptual sophistication. The result is riveting, compelling, incontestable. Impossible to put down. This book provides all anyone needs to know about the reality of prostitution in moving, insightful prose that engages and disposes of every argument ever raised in its favor.” —Catharine A. MacKinnon, law professor, University of Michigan and Harvard University Born into a troubled family, Rachel Moran left home at the age of fourteen. Being homeless, she was driven into prostitution to survive. With intelligence and empathy, she describes the exploitation she and others endured on the streets and in the brothels. Moran also speaks to the psychological damage inherent to prostitution and the inevitable estrangement from one’s body. At twenty-two, Moran escaped the sex trade. She has since become a writer and an abolitionist activist.

Download or read book Objects USA 2020 written by Glenn Adamson and published by The Monacelli Press, LLC. This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Objects: USA 2020 hails a new generation of artist-craftspeople by revisiting a groundbreaking event that redefined American art. In 1969, an exhibition opened at the Smithsonian Institution that redefined American art. Objects: USA united a cohort of artists inventing new approaches to art-making by way of craft media. Subsequently touring to twenty-two museums across the country, where it was viewed by over half a million Americans, and then to eleven cities in Europe, the exhibition canonized such artists as Anni Albers, Sheila Hicks, Wharton Esherick, Wendell Castle, and George Nakashima, and introduced others who would go on to achieve widespread art-world acclaim, including Dale Chihuly, Michele Oka Doner, J. B. Blunk, and Ron Nagle. Objects: USA 2020 revisits this revolutionary exhibition and its accompanying catalog--which has become a bible of sorts to curators, gallerists, dealers, craftspeople, and artists--by pairing fifty participants from the original exhibition with fifty contemporary artists representing the next generation of practitioners to use--and upend--the traditional methods and materials of craft to create new forms of art. Published to coincide with an exhibition of the same title at the renowned gallery R & Company, and featuring essays by some of the foremost authorities on craft at the intersection of art, including Glenn Adamson, curator and former director of the Museum of Arts & Design; James Zemaitis, curator and former head of twentieth-century design at Sotheby's; and Lena Vigna, curator of exhibitions at the Racine Art Musuem; an interview with Paul J. Smith, the cocurator of Objects: USA; archival photographs of the original exhibition and important historical works; and lush full-color images of contemporary works, Objects: USA 2020 is an essential art historical reference that traces how craft was elevated to the status of museum-quality art, and sets its trajectory forward.
