My experience traveling in France, by virtue of the Hohenberg Travel Award, this past summer changed my work in ways I was unaware of until recently. I found it very helpful to leave New York after graduating from the Studio School- where I had incredible support- and experience a foreign environment. Because of the […]

2021 Hohenberg Travel Award: Bee Chessman

The Hohenberg travel award allowed me a month of the freedom an artist craves: time to simply look with the quietness of mind and internal space to welcome the effect of beautiful and astounding things. This past November was spent wandering, seeing and drawing. Weeklong returns to the same museum were punctuated by treasure hunt […]

Stop by the NYSS Gallery to see "Stephen Antonakos

Stop by the NYSS Gallery to see "Stephen Antonakos Drawings: Geometry and Space" on view through January 7. Gallery hours: 10am-6pm, daily.

An engaged New Yorker, with deep roots in Greek culture and religion, Stephen Antonakos @stephen_antonakos defined his art as “real things in real spaces in the here and now.” He is best known for his neon panels, large installations, and public works worldwide, including his 1990 Neons for the 59th Street Marine Transfer Station, the glowing outlines and geometric shapes defining the building, visible from the West Side Highway in Manhattan. Despite his working with a remarkable range of materials, at scales ranging from the intimate to the monumental, drawing was his most enduring, varied, and productive practice. People close to him have quipped, “Stephen was born with a pencil in his hand.” Sometimes that pencil was a straightforward stick of graphite. At other times, it was a literally multifaceted gathering of colors that allowed for complex, often surprising orchestrations of hues as both plane and line. Sometimes, Antonakos found ways of creating boundaries and the paths of trajectories with edges and folds. At still other times, he discovered drawing gestures in found elements. Throughout, he expanded our conception of what a drawing could be.
