Channeling Art in the Natural Surroundings of Drenthe

by AJ West (September 26th, 2007 | 9:22 am) - No Comments

Using nature’s own elements to create art is not a revolutionary idea, but it is not as popular today as we forge ahead into a future of technology and digital art. It is charming to go back to our roots, so to speak and tell the tale of cultures that have inhabited our earth before […]

Looking through Joshua Davis’s Kaleidescope

by AJ West (September 21st, 2007 | 10:28 am) - No Comments

Geometric, random, colorful. All of these descriptions speak the truth for designs one might see when looking through a kaleidescope or when you are observing the rich and modern digital playfulness of Joshua Davis. His installation work, The Brotherhoods Sacred Rose Windows, give one a meditative feeling. They are mounted and lighted with fluorescent lights to […]

Community Feedback

The Internet is quickly paving the way for artistic revolution, giving new arms for artists to reach art enthusiasts, collectors and appreciators across the globe. I am reminded of the words of musician and activist Jello Biafra when he suggested that we âbecome the mediaâ. Artists of all stripes now have the opportunity to do exactly this with the availability of platforms such as TalentDatabase.com. The art revolution for the Internet age is just beginning, and accessibility is no longer in the hands of an elite few. This is a visionary approach that will create unparalleled exposure for artists and a more eclectic and authentic palette for viewers and lovers of art. This is not just social networking. This is activism for art. I look forward to more!

This is my fourth day on this site and I am beginning to see artists from other sites showing up here. My sense is the online method of networking one\'s skill, search and marketing ability is just getting heated up. I certainly feel this site is moving in a proper direction with it\'s ease of operation, and apparent intention to actually aide the artist in reaching, \"End Users\", as in collector\'s, buyers, gallery owners, and those with disposable income. My hat is off to Talendatabase.com

The TalentSpeaks and InSpirit database is an invaluable resource for talent, news and up-to-date information. A zeitgeist of the contemporary art and expressionistic industry, I would recommend this site to amateurs and professionals alike.
