Vanishing Points

Posted by The Art Ministry Team on January 16, 2007

This week in the Art & Design Zone we focus on Pip Culbert acclaimed Linear Artist  in our article ‘Vanishing Points’ 

Pip stands at the forefront of deconstructive art with work spanning many decades. Her work in linear art explores all aspects of fundamental constructions, deconstructions and perspectives of objects.

Over the years, Pip’s work has gained international attention, and her unique pieces have featured in many significant exhibitions and their catalogues, including ‘Software’ in France, Linen Line, at the Sofa Gallery Christchurch in New Zealand, ‘The Secret Life of Clothes, Artium Fukuoka in Japan and a commission for Allianz, in Berlin, a permanent installation of Seams, which runs the length 750 meters of a corridor.

“If we consider that inversion is the art of playing with paradoxes, the work of Pip Culbert is a perfect example of this.” Patricia Brignone (Art critic)

In the article Vanishing Points read how mass industrialisation, two world wars and the 60’s influenced the work of this profound artist.

Return to Minya

Posted by The Art Ministry Team on December 17, 2006

This week in the Art & Design Zone we are pleased to present the first in a series of articles written by our guest contributors. In this week’s highly informative and enjoyable article ‘Return to Minya’, Judi Barrowman, Featured Artist & Adventurer, shares with us her explorations of tombs and temples in middle Egypt.

Judi writes with energy and great sense of discovery about her return visit to Egypt under armed guard and how it captured and inspired her.

Internationally acclaimed for her paintings of Egyptian Tombs and Temples, Judi Barrowman’s work is fresh and compelling. Her passion for Egypt and ancient Egyptian art knows no bounds. Based in England, Judi spends the half of her time trawling the deserts of Egypt in search of new images amongst the ancient ruins. Judi studied Fine Arts at the Reigate School of Art and at Alliance Francaise in Paris.
