Just received a copy of the Paris-based weekly, Courrier International, that features some work of mine. This is a special issue of Courrier International that is part of a larger biannual theme on Health and Medecine. The idea for this particular issue was to "illustrate" the magazine using works of fine art. The collage below was published along with an article regarding ethnobotany and the uses of medicinal plants in modern medicine.

HOUSE PLANTS
Solo show by Chicago-Based Artist Stephen Eichhorn
Opening Reception Friday, September 12th, 6-9pm
Cairo proudly presents House Plants, new work by promising young artist Stephen Eichhorn. Opening Reception Friday, September 12th, from 6-9pm. Eichhorn will be in attendance.
Stephen's Website
Chicago-based artist Stephen Eichhorn creates delicate hand cut paper collages from reproductions of foliage - palm fronds, grasses, leaves and flowers. Mining a variety of sources including National Geographic magazines and the dead stock of 70's and 80's wall coverings, he composes works that mimic the natural world, and yet seem almost outside reality. Eichhorn's work formally transcribes the simplest elements of the pastoral onto a conceptual framework, generating a visual language exclusive to its own world, one rooted in anthropology and humans quest to understand and recreate architecture found in nature. The final product eerily retains a sense of its origins.
House Plants is an allusion to both the source material and the popular use of the plant as a structural object. Banal & everyday, but also an artful cultivation of structure and form, the hand and sensitivity to the plant form are the mystique of his pieces.
House Plants will be on display in the Cairo gallery space through October. Exhibition to include a window installation with fellow Chicago Artist, Cody Hudson.
Cody's Website
Stephen Eichhorn lives and works in Chicago. he received a BFA from the Art Institute of Chicago. His work has been exhibited at José Bienvenu Gallery in New York, Bucket Rider Gallery in Chicago, and the Illinois State Museum. His work is included in a number of private and corporate collections, including a recent acquisition by Fidelity Investments. This is his first solo exhibition in Seattle.

Dean Smith, Allyson Strafella, Phoebe Washburn
Josée Bienvenu gallery is pleased to present microwave, six, an exhibition of drawings by seventeen artists who set up various processes of fragmentation and erosion of information. Close attention is given to execution, a concentration on the production process itself. A microwave is useful everyday to cook fast, or once a year to look at slow drawings. Since 1999, the (almost) annual edition of microwave has been an opportunity to confirm the emergence of a new attitude. As an alternative to an inhospitable era, microwave identifies an international host of artists who commit to the obscene activity of paying attention. With intense focus, patience and precision, the artists in microwave document the relentless propagation of delicacy as a subversive attitude.
Ernesto Caivano, Dean Smith, Károly Keserü and Renato Orara bring drawing to an extreme, as a sort of “maximalism.” Through the endless weaving of minute components, they accumulate signals and vibrations impossible to detect without an extraordinary level of attention. Tones, hues, and shades combined with density, shapes, and intangible forms result in a grand yet subtle game, always remaining just a fragment of a whole. With obsessive attentiveness to detail, Jim Hodges, Stephen Eichhorn and Kamrooz Aram subvert the conventions of monumental practice, poetically linking evanescent moments in works of self-confident beauty.
The works in the exhibition touch upon the very fragile nature of communication and exchange. Allyson Strafella’s typewritten drawings on transfer paper, Alexandra Grant’s multilayered wordscapes or Rivane Neuenschwander’s Ze Carioca altered comic books, explore ways of recording, fragmenting and obliterating information to create new non-verbal narratives. Data manipulation is also at the core of Brian Lund’s graphic translations of film sequences and of Jesse Pasca’s charted drawings: Moore’s Law, My Heart as a Stock Market and How To Be Human, map the correlation between human activity and systems of scientific data.
Through minor operations on paper the artists in microwave disturb established systems of expectations. Jacob Dyrenforth’s pixilated pencil drawings of crowds at rock and roll concerts and Graham Dolphin’s scripted vinyl records disrupt and reprocess the clichéd aspirations of popular culture and the glamour industry. Growing up in Utah in the Mormon Church, Casey Jex Smith explores narratives in ancient scripture. Andrew Scott Ross’ Re-Collections inventory given museums. Randomly floating in space, artifacts are depicted in a constant curatorial drift, suspended from interpretation and hierarchy. Phoebe Washburn exposes generative systems based on absurd patterns of production. With their elaborate notations and coding, the un-monumental drawings are microcosms of her convoluted architectural environments.

BUCKET RIDER GALLERY announces Tristes Tropiques, our first solo exhibition of new collages by Stephen Eichhorn, in Galleries One and recent paintings by Katie Herzog in Gallery Two.
Chicago, IL, June 13, 2008 – Bucket Rider celebrates the summer with a series of new works by Stephen Eichhorn and Katie Herzog. We present new hand cut collage works by Stephen Eichhorn. in Gallery One and recent paintings by L.A.-based artist Katie Herzog in Gallery Two.
Chicago-based artist Stephen Eichhorn creates delicate paper collages from reproductions of foliage (palm fronds, grasses, leaves and flowers) cut by hand mining a variety of sources including National Geographic magazines and the dead stock of 70’s and 80’s wall coverings. He reassembles these elements into something outside of the reality of the natural world. Formally transferring the simplest elements of the pastoral into conceptual sculpture, he takes a cue from theoretical or invisible architecture, creating another created world, wholly existing on its own terms and with its own visual language. The final product eerily retains a sense of its origins: his constructions feel as if they could exist in reality but clearly do not. They simultaneously offer a vestage of the world around us while also acting as a reminder of the way that we mediate every part of it into something that is our own.
The title of Eichhorn’s exhibition is taken from Claude Lévi-Strauss’ influential study of the same name and is used to loosely reference the author’s encounter of the elements of otherness and his attempts to arrange and describe his experiences. Detailing the creation of an abacino, or fire fan, Lévi-Strauss explains, “there are several ways of solving the problem and several kinds of palm leaf [and] it is possible to combine leaves and methods to produce every conceivable form, and one can make a collection of specimens illustrating these miniature technological solutions.” Eichhorn is also creating solutions, albeit aesthetic ones, to the world around him.
Stephen Eichhorn lives and works in Chicago. He received his B.F.A. at the Art Institute of Chicago. He will be part of upcoming exhibitions at Josée Bienvenu Gallery in New York and the Illinois State Musuem this summer. His work is included in a number of private and corporate collections, including a recent acquisition by Fidelity Investments. This is his first exhibition with Bucket Rider Gallery.
Katie Herzog creates luscious, painterly canvases employing multiple surfaces and playing with perspective. Her paintings in Gallery Two were created while the artist was working with children at a library. They depict scenes of enrapture and the struggle to communicate and connect.
Katies Herzog lives and works in Los Angeles. She received her M.F.A. from UC-San Diego and participated in the Skowhegan program in 2007. She has been part of group exhibitions at Gavin Brown’s Enetrprise in New York and Western Projects in LA, and will have her second solo exhibition at Circus Gallery in L.A. this fall.

HAROLD ARTS
Apply to the Harold Arts Residency!
The Harold Residency Program is an opportunity for artists and musicians to further their goals and interact with like-minded individuals in a secluded environment. Situated in the Appalachian foothills of Southeast Ohio on the grounds of the Jeffers Tree Farm, the Harold Residency provides a remote location with modern studio facilities, comfortable accommodations, and chef-prepared meals. For one or two week sessions, residents refine their practices, create new work, and collaborate with fellow artists.
Each summer, our residency program serves as an introduction into a network which functions throughout the year, presenting art exhibitions, concerts, and other events in Chicago. Attending Harold opens the door to an array of opportunities beyond the residency itself: recordings made by music residents are included in our annual compilation CD (produced in partnership with Sundmagi records); residents are also invited to perform in conjunction with the record release. Visual artists are assured participation in at least one exhibition following the summer residency, and are considered for representation in fairs and festivals including Artropolis in Chicago.
This summer's residency will take place from July 7th-27th. The fee for one week is $300 and $500 for two weeks. These fees include shared housing, all meals, and communal studio space. This year we are also accepting applications from collectives, bands, and other previously-affiliated groups of artists. Four to six people may apply as a group and, if accepted, receive remote group lodging and a discounted $1000/week charge.
Please submit applications by April 30th. You will be notified on the status of your application on May 15th. For more information on how to apply, or any other questions you might have, please check our website: haroldarts.org -- or contact info@haroldarts.org
Harold Arts is a non-profit arts organization based in Chicago, IL, devoted to fostering the collaborative and interdisciplinary endeavors of new, emerging and mid-career artists.
