RYAN LEE GALLERY "Scenic Microcosms: Wallpapered Rooms Painted by Andrew Raftery" https://ryanleegallery.com/exhibition... PRESS RELEASE https://ryanlee515.wpenginepowered.co... PHOTOGRAPHY BY ERIK GOULD https://www.erikgouldprojects.com/ Andrew Raftery (b. 1962 Goldsboro, NC) is an artist whose work explores both observational and autobiographic narratives of contemporary American life. His artistic practice rests upon a deep expertise and appreciation for the antique medium of engraving, and his precise and labor-intensive works demonstrate the enduring relevance—and efficiency—of this medium’s application on contemporary subjects to disseminate images that are universally accessible. Raftery pools his expansive knowledge and care into his works to create intimate and inventive portraits of his 21st century life using techniques that date back to the 15th century, thus paying homage to the vast history of printmaking in an updated, modern setting. His practice is simultaneously heavily research-based as a scholar and collector, as well as both personal and objective: his work constitutes a constant practice of self-reflection within his contemporary society. 🍎ART PROF SERVICES https://artprof.org/services/ • Portfolio critiques • Artist calls • Personal Art Curriculums • Artist doc editing • Lectures by Prof Lieu 🍊WORKSHOPS https://artprof.org/learn/premium-cou... ❤️JOIN OUR PATREON GROUP https://artprof.org/support-us/ • Share your art in weekly voice sessions with staff • Critiques & advice from Prof Lieu • Find support in a small group of artists 🐟DISCORD SERVER https://artprof.org/community/join-us...
