ESSENCE OF NUDE -- When Vaughn Lewis of Magnan Projects agreed to curate July 2009, little did he know that he would also be asked to participate in an experiment! For months, curators have been saying that they wished there were more days in the month so they could pick more works. As part of the selection of the July 2009 calendar, Lewis was asked to curate August -- so he got to pick 62 pieces (with no duplicates). Lewis was very excited about the selection process | ||||

and the fact that he was the first to get this opportunity. He themed this calendar as a dedication to the skill, sensibility and aesthetic of the art of the nude. When asked about the experience, he was almost at a loss for words, "I had to look at every artist, not to miss anyone, especially newcomers." For August, Lewis chose Haydee Torres' Angela to launch the month - an evocative and skillful contemporary image of the purposeful and the accidental combined.
The 31 artists represented in August 2009 (with day of month) are: Eric Angeloch* (27), Grant Besley* (15), Donna Cleary (20), Janet Cook (18), Roger Cummiskey* (29), Donelli J. DiMaria (16), Harald Grote (24), Terry Hinkle (14), David Hollander (9), Tina Johnston (13), Mollie Kellogg (4), Szn Kraft (25), Francien Krieg (31), Scott Lawson (3), Tony Lee (23), John Luce Lockett (28), Lucinda Luvaas (11), Jean Marcellino (6), Colleen Martin (7), Joe Mays (10), Dan McCormack (26), Frank Olesen (12), Stephen Panoushek (21), Jon Rettich (2), Chanit Roston (8), Ilene Skeen (17), Emily Stedman* (30), Sara Swan (5), Haydee Torres* (1), Randy Thurman (22), C. Charles Wang (19). Each of the artists selected for the calendar receives two (2) complimentary listings. Five artists, indicated by asterisks (*), are nominated for the Curators Choice Awards. Curators' Choice nominees receive 8 additional complimentary listings. The top three artists receive cash prizes. You can also vote for “My Favorite N*de,” the poll which includes all of the art in the calendar. The top three artists in “My Favorite N*de” receive one (1) complementary listing.
