Thursday Posting: Artist's for Panel Review

For the panel review I am meeting with Page Bond, Julie Sanders, and Robert Hobbs.  Page Bond is the owner of Page Bond Gallery. The history of the gallery is found on the website, stating:  

"The Page Bond Gallery, first established in 1999 as the New Gallery in Nantucket, Massachusetts, relocated to Richmond, Virginia in 2001.  Featuring contemporary art in a wide variety of media and disciplines including painting, printmaking, photography, sculpture, and ceramics, the gallery acts as a showcase for the work of emerging as well as established artists with local, national, and international reputations. "

The second person I am meeting with is Julie Sanders from the Martin Agency, who is the senior art producer.  The Martin Agency is is a renowned advertising firm, ranking #3 in the U.S, and represents companies such as Geico, Hanes, Walmart, and Seiko, to name a few. 

The third person I will be meeting with is Robert Hobbs, a professor at VCU who holds the Rhoda Thalhimer Endowed Chair.  His website states:

Recognized as both an academic and a museum curator, Hobbs specializes in both late modern and post-modern art. His work joins social history with literary criticism, aesthetics, and feminist and postcolonial theory. He has published widely and has curated dozens of exhibitions, many of which have been shown at important institutions in the U.S. and abroad. His specific research areas span the twentieth- and twentieth-first centuries, and his publications include monographs on Milton Avery, Alice Aycock, Edward Hopper, Lee Krasner, Mark Lombardi, Robert Smithson, and Kara Walker. In addition to working on mainstream modern and post-modern artists, his published research includes in-depth studies of regional, self-taught, and Native American artists as well as investigations of contemporary and traditional craft media. Hobbs is a member of the Editorial Board of the Grove Encyclopedia of American Art, published by Oxford University Press. I am looking forward to getting feedback from these people, and I think their diverse backgrounds will give me a wide variety of advice and criticism.
