SUMMARY:Fine Art & Amusement with Artist Rachel Goldsmith (Zoom)
DESCRIPTION:Artist Rachel Goldsmith (our Rabbi’s amazingly talented­–a
 nd also hilarious­–sister) will run an Art Tour exclusively for our con
 gregation.\nOn the agenda: Get an inside look at Rachel’s newest work fi
 rst: originals that you cannot yet get on her website. Hear stories behind
  her art that she’s never told anywhere else\, and gain access to super 
 special\, show-only pricing. PLUS: Rachel is giving away a piece of art t
 o one lucky member of our congregation and will be drawing a name at rando
 m during the Art Tour! Enter to win this piece here.\n\nAbout Rachel’s A
 rt\, in her own words\nEach piece I create is an abstract chapter of an ol
 d story – the universal struggle to control our environment while our en
 vironment controls us. The lines and movement I see in the world repeat in
  the obsessively detailed structures and emotions that I map onto the canv
 as.\n\nMy line of influence runs from the precise representations of Ernst
  Haeckel\, through the perfectly imperfect geometric abstractions of Sol L
 eWitt and Agnes Martin\, to the contours that emerge from Dale Chihuly’s
  physically dynamic and demanding creative process. My work pulls and exte
 nds that thread.\nI paint with a 3D printing pen\, extruding lines of colo
 red plastic onto canvas. I devoted several years to developing the new lan
 guage for this medium\, allowing me to fully (and more powerfully) express
  the ideas and emotions I had spent a career communicating with paint and 
 ink. The “struggle for control” metaphor becomes very real for me ever
 y time I rely on this new\, imperfect technology as my translator. But it
 ’s not about the pen.\nI paint what I see. I blur the margin between two
  and three dimensions. I spontaneously abstract emotions with shapes\, col
 or and lines. I repeat. I repeat. My pieces do not have a master plan\, as
  the work controls me as much as I control it. But that tension\, and the 
 tension my art represents\, is a happy tension. I believe art should bring
  joy and pleasure\, both emotionally and aesthetically.\n\n&nbsp\;
