"Artists Above All" - exhibited at the Art Gallery for All VSA arts of Georgia Healey Building 57 Forsyth St. until April 20 - features work by 10 members of the Mouth and Foot Painting Artists, a painting with a brush held in their mouths or feet as a result from defects which forbids them to use their hands.

"When I eagerly accepted an invitation to curate this exhibition ... I started to reflect and consider how I will run my own art work using only his mouth and / or my legs," Phillips said. "The next thought that crossed my mind is how people can learn to craft foreign to both legs. I have also considered the impact of lost or never had use of my hand. [Title of show] speaks to the fact that the artists are composing a beautician and capable obtain income through the arts, outside the limitations of public perception that they live. "

Viola also said he hoped to work with the gallery show to discuss the work of students and alumni with disabilities Scad in place.

Last 100 Years Painter : Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn

Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn (July 15, 1606 – October 4, 1669) was a Dutch painter and etcher. He is generally considered one of the greatest painters and printmakers in European art history and the most important in Dutch history. His contributions to art came in a period that historians call the Dutch Golden Age.

Having achieved youthful success as a portrait painter, his later years were marked by personal tragedy and financial hardship. Yet his drawings and paintings were popular throughout his lifetime, his reputation as an artist remained high and for twenty years he taught nearly every important Dutch painter. Rembrandt's greatest creative triumphs are exemplified especially in his portraits of his contemporaries, self-portraits and illustrations of scenes from the Bible. The self-portraits form a unique and intimate biography, in which the artist surveyed himself without vanity and with the utmost sincerity.

There are some Rembrandt Harmenszoon van Rijn's painting :

The Martyrdom of St. Stephen. 1625. Oil on panel. Musée des Beaux-Arts, Lyons, France.

The Ass of Balaam Talking before the Angel. 1626. Oil on panel. Musée Cognacq-Jay, Paris, France.

Last 100 Years Painter : Frida Kahlo

After the accident, Kahlo turned her attention away from the study of medicine to begin a full-time painting career. The accident left her in a great deal of pain while she recovered in a full body cast; she painted to occupy her time during her temporary state of immobilization. Her self-portraits became a dominant part of her life when she was immobile for three months after her accident. Kahlo once said, "I paint myself because I am often alone and I am the subject I know best." Her mother had a special easel made for her so she could paint in bed, and her father lent her his box of oil paints and some brushes.

Drawing on personal experiences, including her marriage, her miscarriages, and her numerous operations, Kahlo's works often are characterized by their stark portrayals of pain. Of her 143 paintings, 55 are self-portraits which often incorporate symbolic portrayals of physical and psychological wounds. She insisted, "I never painted dreams. I painted my own reality."

Kahlo was influenced by indigenous Mexican culture, which is apparent in her use of bright colors and dramatic symbolism. She frequently included the symbolic monkey. In Mexican mythology, monkeys are symbols of lust, but Kahlo portrayed them as tender and protective symbols. Christian and Jewish themes are often depicted in her work.

Last 100 years Painter : Leonardo da Vinci

Leonardo da Vinci was a Florentine artist, one of the great teachers of the High Renaissance, which is also celebrated as a painter, sculptor, architect, engineers, and scientists. Love-depth knowledge and research is the essence of both artistic and scientific efforts. His innovations in the field of painting influenced the course of Italian art for more than a century after his death, and scientific studies-particularly in the field of anatomy, optics, and hydraulics-anticipated many of the developments of modern science.

Leonardo was born on April 15, 1452, in the small Tuscan town of Vinci, near Florence. He was the son of a wealthy Florentine notary and a peasant woman.

In the mid-1460s the family settled in Florence, where Leonardo was given the best education that Florence, the intellectual and artistic center of Italy, could offer. He quickly advanced socially and intellectually. He was handsome, persuasive in conversation, and a fine musician and improvisation. About 1466 he was apprenticed as a garzone (studio boy) to Andrea del Verrocchio, Florence's leading painters and sculptors of the day. In Verrocchio workshop Leonardo was introduced to a variety of activities, from painting altarpieces and panel pictures to the creation of a large sculpture projects in marble and bronze. In 1472 he entered the painters guild of Florence, and in 1476 he was mentioned as Verrocchio's assistant. In Verrocchio's Baptism of Christ (c. 1470, Uffizi, Florence), the kneeling angel at the left of the painting by Leonardo.
