Holiday in an American Desert -Dias Sardenberg

Blythe Projects Presents
Dias Sardenberg
Joyous, lyrical paintings with sexual innuendos and whimsical notions have substance because of the artist's experienced hand.  There is a sense of an artist who has worked at her craft with dedication and historical appreciation of pattern and design and collage.  The portrait collages are reminiscent of Sonia Delaunay's designs for stage presentations.

Cody Trepte and Sarah Seager @ LACE interview March 31, 2011

Poetry Within Spaces (One The Line- LACE

The current group exhibition of four Los Angeles based artists, (Meg Cranston, Larry Johnson, Sarah Seager, and Mitchel Syrop), who have historically dedicated their art disciplines to Conceptual Art, were selected by emerging curator Cody Trepte.  Trepte asks the questions; "What is left of Conceptualism and where has it gone?"  Trepte is a recent resident of Los Angeles who has been focusing on Conceptual Art of the l980's and 90's.  The four artists encompass the tenacity of having "thoughts and ideas" as their primary art mediums.  Meg Cranston's television piece which is reminiscent of the classic "eight ball" game where you ask yes or no questions, is a prologue and epilogue for Trepte's questions.  Conceptualism is "yes" and Conceptualism is "no" and it is the spaces in between.
