Stone. Wood. Gem. Empty Space - The Art of Dorit Schwartz at the Wynn Las Vegas

By Dr. Laura Henkel,
Contributing Writer

Artist Dorit Schwartz 
Dorit Schwartz’s sublime sculptures lyrically express spiritual enhancement and power, particularly that of the natural world. This is poetic ekphrasis, telling the tale, in physical terms, of the invisible, a vision of unity and transparency. A crystal within the branches of a tree, the creation of open space to contain a metaphysical heart of agate or amethyst. Schwartz’s remarkable works are made of beautiful hand carved materials including rare wood, and gemstones.

A holistically defined artistic vision is exemplified in Schwartz’s mystical sculpture Energy Portal. This work incorporates fine Brazilian agate geode, encased within reclaimed mortar wood, with a steel mount and lighting effects. The magic of all of Schwartz’s work includes a quiet evocation of the spiritual. No overt symbols exist, rather seemingly simple shapes stand, like nautilus shells, hidden treasures often at the core. The artist has worked the surface and form, however, her interventions are subtle, and almost seamlessly perfect, the objects seem touched by elements, weathered by the sky, by rain, by the ocean. She has maintained a classical paradigm, adherence to the truth of materials, as first expressed by the alternately smooth and rough marbles of the great 19th century French artist Auguste Rodin and the late 19th – early 20th century Romanian sculptor Constantin Brancusi. These elements and sensibility coalesce in Schwartz’s work to express something metaphysical as seen in the organic rounded shape of Contemplation composed of an iconic center of selenite crystal, rooted in lovely acacia wood, suggesting meditative and spiritual experience.

This graceful expression reflects a central thematic of the artist’s life, and for many others in the modern world, the desire to achieve harmony not only in plastic form, but also within the spiritual self. As such these sculptures serve as spectacular visions of something deep within us, the open spaces like an abstract illustration of the innermost heart of a man, containing a chakra like crystal, a round curvilinear wood carved to form a womb like interior, reflecting perhaps the struggles and hidden chakra of woman. Such imagery is clearest in works such as Rings of Life, a round feminine shape of acacia holding a gem of aragonite, while the work Inner Self features white quartz again encircled in a maternal roundel, expressive of an immeasurable spirituality. This is the essence of crystals, an alternative to the empirical view of the world, and refers to the idea of chi or qi, a Taoist concept naming an unseen healing force. In this philosophy, problems originate from disharmony.

The use of crystals as amulets or healing devices can be traced to the ancient world. The ancient Greeks believed crystals were perpetually frozen ice formations found on Mt. Olympus, this captured beautifully in the passage on the ice of the Gods and embodied in Schwartz’s majestic sculpture Happiness (Vav-Hey-Vav והו) masterfully carved from selenite set with high-polished stainless steel (number 49 in The 72 Names of Schwartz’s God Series).

We know in addition to the mention of crystals in Exodus, the ancient Egyptians held quartz sacred, and drank from carved quartz vessels, the liquid imbued with life force. In addition, throughout the world, crystal balls were representative of artist power and purity of vision. Tibetan monks saw these important objects as “windows of the gods.” In South America, ancient cultures used crystal objects in ceremonies, and in North America, Native American cultures including the Cherokee believe in the legend of the time of harmony of long ago, the old way. Within this belief system, crystals and minerals possess certain properties that can reinstate harmony and peacefulness. It is no accident, thus that Schwartz has chosen such evocative materials to express what the Buddhists called the “visible nothingness” an esoteric understanding of spiritual ascension and understanding.

The search for ascension and the attainment of spiritual elevation is present in all religion, whether Buddhist, Taoist, Christian, Judaism, Islam or Hindu and many other belief systems and philosophies. What Schwartz captures in her work is this invisible truth, a metaphysical concept that is represented by the distilled purity of nature, masterfully created in hand made sculptures of the utmost earthly material. In Schwartz’s extraordinary oeuvre, nature functions as the model for the synergetic, symbiotic and cyclical, an inspired expression of personal spiritual harmony.

As a whole, Schwartz’s work has a distilled purity and an organic sensibility, mirroring shapes of flora and fauna, and the silhouette of the curves and recesses of the human body. Many of the works showcase the inherent quality of the natural material, the porous surface of a wood undulated by time, even a tropical wood, touched by the elements, or the grain or spectacular smoothness of polished stone give these works a haptic beauty. It is understood that Brancusi’s experiments in sensual abstraction were in some way an extension of the work of Auguste Rodin, and Arp and Moore’s work was in the same sense after Brancusi. Schwartz continues this tradition, expanding on the poetic use of natural materials, the contrasts evoking complex impressions of balance, heaviness and lightness in an arrangement of lyrical shapes.

Las Vegas will have the opportunity to see firsthand the luminous beauty of Dorit Schwartz’s handcrafted sculpture in a stunningly curated collection of her newest work at the Wynn Home Store, Las Vegas.

Las Vegas Artists take over Designer Con in Pasadena

Gotta give them lots of props for putting on a great show at Designer Con 2014. Las Vegas should be very proud to have had such a great team of ambassadors in Pasadena, November 8-9th, as they showed their L.A. counterparts and beyond that they too could hang with the big girls and boys. Not to mention the artists were grouped all together in one continuous row in what they called the Las Vegas Strip approprietly.

Also I must add that I was deeply humbled to have been asked by artist Ryan Brunty, creator extraordinaire of "Yerman the Sad Yeti", to have been asked to moderate a panel discussion with Ryan and Juan Muniz on Art and Depression at the expo. I am glad that I agreed because I could not have had a better weekend with such amazing artists discussing such an important subject that moved many in the audience to tears.

When I look back at the 20 years that I have been personally involved in the local art scene it really is exciting to see how far we have come as a community. Though I have always said that Las Vegas has always had cultural arts scene, based on historical fact, it was not until the last 12 years that the scene has really picked up momentum. So much so that city's around the world are beginning to take notice.

Whats interesting is the fact that we Las Vegans don't even know what we have in our own backyard. In another recent trip to L.A. back in June I was shocked at how much the cultural intelligentsia in places like Los Angeles knew about what was going on in our fair city. The world is quickly taking notice that Las Vegas is a place with fresh ideas that has a lot of opportunities for fledgling, mid-career and established artists. What the future holds is anyone's guess but I suspect that Las Vegas will continue breaking barriers and reaching new frontiers in art and culture just like we did with the gaming and entertainment industries.

Keep up the good work all you creatives out there for Las Vegas has an artistic mojo to be reckoned with.

ENIGMA by Anthony Bondi at Sin City Gallery

By Laura Henkel,
contributing writer

Las Vegas has long been a destination for entertainment, a visitor’s paradise of forgetfulness and excess. Many describe the environment as surreal. And yet, like the Dadaist’s disdain for urbanity, it appears as well, that artists who live within this bright world of guile artfulness, entertainment and sexuality have their own notion of urban life.

Anthony Bondi is one of these artists. His work serves as a commentary on the transient nature of the city, and of the idea of show, beauty and contemporary culture, and yet also offers a view into the world of artists who for all purposes function outside of the world of the casinos, who exist within this realm, but have another way of being and living, sometimes invisible, but always creating.

Overall, Bondi’s meticulous hand made collages have a retro feel, an archaism that reminds one of aesthetic of art deco and 1950’s black and white magazines. While Bondi’s work is decidedly late 20th century if not contemporary, it does use the idioms seen frequently in the collaborative collages and drawings and collages produced by the Parisian and Spanish Surrealists of the early 20th century. These works in the original French were called “cadavre exquis” (exquisite corpse or rotating corpse) and involved each participant adding a word or image to the paper, resulting the juxtaposition of seemingly unrelated imagery.

As well in classic 20th century Surrealist pictures, particularly that of Remedios Varo and Yves Tanguy strange often unrelated elements are often set against an expanse of sky, which may have seemed otherworldly to the Parisians, but might seem like simply home, or the desert to Nevada. Nevertheless this plain of sand has its own esoteric qualities even for the local. While Bondi has also worked in kinetic sculpture for the Burning Man Festival, he clearly has also enjoyed the creative force of automatism.

Bondi’s style is part of the heritage of Surrealism in America that spans so many mediums from artistic greats like Robert Rauschenberg who also collected and assembled images and objects to make remarkable large-scale tableaux. In fact, the influence of Dada and Surrealism is far reaching and even makes it imprint on the moving image and advertisement. As such, Bondi’s work displays a dedication to pursuing a form of automatism, to ensuring that handmade creative works are continually at the heart of an artist’s production.

It must also be mentioned that Bondi’s works are intrinsically related to Las Vegas’ artistic culture of the late 1990’s that met and flowered at the artist’s meeting place Enigma Café (1993-2000). A meeting place for exchange and collaboration; it was the center for artistic creativity. As part of this community, Bondi created a series of Flyer Collages, a “candy wrapper” for the café’s handwritten monthly event flyers.

These kind of collaborative magazines and print materials have a long history in America including the well known VVV magazine of the 1940’s and American surrealists for some time have encountered and absorbed and reinterpreted surreal imagery numerous artists, we need to only look at the work of the early 20th century artist Peter Blume and expand our horizons to film making today such as Anja Marais and even more famous Matthew Barney.

For its part, the Enigma Café was a place where making art mattered, and today, The Arts Factory, the location of Sin City Gallery, carries on this legacy. It is indeed a rare opportunity to see the results of this hidden subculture.

Works about the café include a series of monochromatic flyer covers with the name Enigma Café across mysterious imagery, that is at once puzzling and captivating, a tongue in cheek picture featuring a iconic coffee cup and saucer at the center, besieged by a crowd of reaching arms; Alfred Hitchcock’s somber profile sits outlandishly on a cup, and vintage image of a child leans in, adding to a sense of inversion and absurdity. Other images are more classical and enigmatic; a Grecian woman is posed next to a dark well of coffee, and botanical elements. A reclining nude draped in a white cloth recalls the classic feminine muse and model. Each work is graphically appealing and sufficiently mystifying to fascinate.

Enigma is truly a taste of nostalgia and exquisitely brewed to perfection.
