A Week in the Art World: Friday

1/31/2020

0 Comments

 
Well Reader, I am sharing my take on a week in the art world, or rather the small world of this particular artist caught between ARTnews and life while still adapting to postgraduate studies...

News, Friday January 31, 2020:

World Health Organization declares Coronavirus a public health emergency and Art Basel Hong Kong is likely affected; Los Angeles County Museum receives $50 million pledge for new
campus; Dali sculptures and etchings brazenly stolen in Sweden.


Meanwhile: The Yankee artist wakes to find that she is thankfully not hung-over after attending an art party at Rasheed Araeen's Shamiyana. Indeed, she is gleeful—for even though it was only 3 glasses of wine, she was definitely a bit giggly and the hangover probability was high for such a lightweight. At the end of the day however, much to her chagrin, she realizes that her English cohorts must be feeling depressed about the official end of the UK’s membership in the EU. She feels like a total dolt for not realizing this sooner. Damn Yankee.

    Hi, I'm Romi. I'm an American artist who lives & works in Santa Fe, New Mexico. I have the amazing opportunity to live in London while working on a MFA program in painting and decided to blog about the experience. So here we go!

"Embracing counterpoints, like moments of stillness found within chaos, I use a range of materials in my work: drawings, paintings, ceramics, printmaking, video, installation and sculpture."

Romi Sloboda was born in the United States and spent her childhood living in both the United States and her mother's native city, Seoul, Korea. She studied printmaking at the Santa Reparata Graphic Arts Centre in Florence, and received her BFA from Washington University in St. Louis and her MFA from London Metropolitan University. Her work has been exhibited in solo and group shows throughout the United States as well as in Europe. She has been awarded residencies from the Cité Internationale des Arts Fondation in Paris, the University of Texas at Dallas, and the Herekeke Arts Center in New Mexico. Romi currently lives and works in London, United Kingdom.
