Conventional
wisdom in Eugene art circles says: No one buys art
here. What few collectors there are living in Eugene
head out of town - to Portland, Seattle, San Francisco
or Los Angeles - when they want to spend serious money
on art, or so the story goes.
Well, the conventional wisdom has fallen ill in the
past few months with a flurry of high-ticket sales
at downtown Eugene galleries.
At Fenario Gallery, a buyer paid $45,000 for a painting
by internationally-known Visionary artist, Robert
Venosa, a painter with studios in Boulder, Colorado,
and Cadaques, Spain.
"I think we're finally growing up," said
Mary Unruh, executive director of DIVA. "We really
brought some people in from out of the woodwork. There
are people here who love art who have just assumed
there was nothing in Eugene. And they are coming through
our doors now and saying, 'Oh, this is impressive.'
Brent Rosskopf, owner of Fenario Gallery, echoed Unruh's
sentiment. There are serious art buyers in Eugene,
he said. The challenge is for local galleries to find
and connect with them.
"I was kind of stuck in a rut for a long time
thinking the money doesn't exist here to support the
kind of work many of us are showing," he said.
"I do think it lies in a much smaller demographic
than any other place, but it's here. It just needs
to be reached." A private collector in Eugene
bought the $45,000 Venosa painting, Rosskopf said."He
has collected Venosa for quite a while and has bought
many prints from me. The painting just resonated with
him." |

Metamorphosis 1 (our first book) has been picked up
by Tower Books distribution and is available in book
shops across Australia. We are looking into International
distribution, but for now people who live outside
of Australia can order Metamorphosis from our online
shop. Book sales have been going so well that it looks
like we could run out of the first edition soon. We
have also collected many photos of featured artists
with their contributors copies which can be viewed
on our Metamorphosis forum thread. Many reviews of
Metamorphosis have also been published on our forum.
We also have over 80 new featured artists to add to
the beinArt.org Surreal Art Collective. Keep checking
our Paintings, Drawings, Sculpture & Digital Art
sections over the coming weeks for new artists. This
will bring our total number of featured artists to
well over 350. Check out the Artist News section in
our blog for upcoming exhibitions, publications and
news from our featured artists.
We recently opened a YouTube account dedicated to
International Surreal & Stop-Motion Animation.
At this stage we have 31 short animated films featured
on our channel and many more to come.
Thank you all for your continued support and for keeping
the spirit of Contemporary Surreal & Fantastic
art alive.

Dear
Artists,
Its been a long three year hiatus. We are now open,
and want to showcase our membership. The
opening date for the 2008 WASH Salon is Saturday,
January 19 and ends on Sunday, February 24, in
our second floor gallery. We have placed an advertisement
in the Gallery Guide and M magazine to generate interest
and support our
membership. Please log on to our website www.wahcenter.net
down-load the application and mail it with your membership
fee of $50.
Please note that if you have already sent in your
2008 fee, it is still necessary to complete a new
application form so that we can update our records.
The deadline for submission is December
14th, in order to print your names on the announcement
card. Our website is being updated as well. Please
e-mail four images of your new work to our webmaster,
orin@buckart.com,
so
that we can promote the exhibition on line. We are
always interested in recruiting new artists. Let your
friends know about the art club. They still have
time to participate in this showcase. I would very
much appreciate help in installing the exhibit on
Friday, January 18th, at 6pm. It is an evening of
a little hard work and a good way to get to know each
other. I also need members to gallery sit on a Saturday
or Sunday during the run of the show.
Please contact me and tell me what you can
do to help.We look forward to showing your new
work and reconnecting. Let’s start 2008 with
an exciting exhibition.
Best regards,
Carol Quint
President WAH Salon
