I was conceived in Alaska and raised on mother love and acrylic paint. My Mother, Martha Boss, drew constantly: we were all delicious fodder. She tells me we inherited the gene from a Dutch landscape painter on the Boss side. There are also some inventive horticulturists mixed in that maternal gene pool. So HURRAH! And VOILA!
REVIEW EXCERPT
The real knockout in the show... never fussy, but always fresh... creates a marvelous synthesis of visual energy... contrasting expressionist attacks with a precise and rational line.

The winter of 1957 I taught myself to draw. I was living in Alaska. I needed a hobby. My daughter, Jennifer, wasn't born yet. But she must have been thinking about it while I was busy teaching me. The temperature was usually 40 degrees below. After she was born, mo matter where we were, I kept on painting. I entered shows. She was always watching me. My shadow. People that own my work live in many places. As have I. Any frame of mind on any day counts as a state. I am a true believer. Art will keep you going. My brush is always with me. My paintings hang in LA, Phila, Cape Cod, MA, NY, Conn, N Mex, NH, N Jersey. They say a lot for cabin fever.

 Andrés Cardinale
A friend once told Andrés that the problem was that his intellectual life was all input and no output. And somehow it's true. He has been reading lots of things since he was four years old (crime fiction, English literature, deep psychology, history, Greek mithology, and classical religion are among his subjects) , and the output, up to this moment, has been a few essays, two o three short stories, and very long conversations about everything and nothing. Some other friends just say he is lazy when it comes to writing, and there's an element of truth in that too. He has a Bachelor Degree in Literature from Universidad Central de Venezuela, and works as Assistant Editor for two Venezuelan magazines: Exceso, that deals with general issues, and Cocina y Vino, a prestigious gastronomical quarterly.

“I was born and brought up in San Cristobal in the Andes in Venezuela in abundant contact with nature which is very exuberant in the tropics even up in the mountains. I came to Caracas in 80´s to study and then to New York in 1988. The contrast was stark in this built up city where you can’t put your feet in the water in the river or walk in the park all year round. The natural element most evident to me was the light; I used to stare up at the spaces with shadows.”

 Petra Gemeinboeck
Petra Gemeinboeck is an architect and media artist, currently based in Sydney, Australia, where she is an Assistant Professor of Digital Media at the University of Sydney. Her artistic practice and theoretical research bring together the fields of architecture, computer science, media art and visual culture. In her works Petra creates scenarios of encounter in which spatial boundaries of the physical, the virtual, the social and the subjective become perforated and hybridized. Her interactive installations and virtual environments have been exhibited internationally at venues such as Archilab 2004, Orléans, France, the Ars Electronica Center, Linz, Austria, the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, USA, and the InterCommunication Center, Tokyo, Japan and have been featured in magazines such as ARCHIS and Computer Graphics World. Petra has published widely on the interrelations of physical and virtual spaces and issues of embodied negotiation in virtual environments.
Ms. Gemeinboeck's doctoral thesis ‘Negotiating the Virtual: Inhabiting Architectures of Emergence and Remoteness,’ completed at the Vienna University of Technology, Austria, is concerned with the conditions of a virtual reality, in which the virtual does not simulate another reality, but unfolds its own reality in the relationship with the temporary inhabitant. She received her Master of Fine Arts at the Electronic Visualization Laboratory, University of Illinois at Chicago, IL, USA and also has a master’s degree in architecture from the University of Stuttgart, Germany.

 Spencer James
was born in Zagreb, Croatia to an American Mother (of Italian/Croatian descent) and a Mexican father and has lived in Croatia, Mexico, Pittsburgh, coastal Maine and finally, Boston. The influence of cultural diversity, along with working at his family’s American folk art gallery during high school, provided most of the basic undercurrents for his art inspirations. Believing art is everywhere; he sees all mediums as an option. Spontaneity and a “stream-of-consciousness” approach is key to his process- often using found wood as “canvas”. Holding a BFA from Massachusetts College of Art, Spencer has most recently shown at the Rose Art Museum, the Gallery at Green Street and the Puddingstone Gallery. He is also a singer and guitarist in a rock band named “Flats Fixed”.

 Minna Långström
Minna Långström's computer aided installations reconstruct social or political situations in which the visitor participation is conceptually integrated. In her latest installation, Kupla (the Bubble), she draws a parallel between the western society and a nursery, where bright colored toys produce sounds and images of death, war and other people's suffering. The installation is a meditation on Western media and entertainment and its effects on us consumers. The piece is discussing our motives regarding news, entertainment and the aestheticization of violence during times of war.
Her earlier work includes "the Chinese Room" installation, a surveillance room where the viewer intimately can follow the lives of a man and a woman, living in the same house. Instead of communicating with each other in person, the couple looks for information about each other through video and  data surveillance. The viewer momentarily appears on the video monitors of the fictive characters and is thus being watched by them in return. Minna Långström (1974) lives and works in Helsinki, Finland. She has an MFA from the Academy of Fine Arts in Helsinki and was studying and working at Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, 1998-2000.
