SUMMARY:A PET RISO  STUDIO TOUR  AT THE BOK
DESCRIPTION:Join DVAA on a field trip to the Bok and see our current exhibiting artists at work.\n\n\nWe’re taking a fun galavant over to the Bok building!   \nMeet us at 1901 S 9th St\, #1N on Saturday\, September 20th for an exciting chance to see our exhibiting artists Pet Riso in their Studio. Grab a coffee from Two Persons Coffee and see our “Friend of a Friend of a Friend” artists at work.  \nIt’s sure to be a good time! \n \nAbout the Exhibition \nWhat do you visualize when you imagine an artist making their work? The cliché we often see in media is an artist working alone in their studio\, struggling over an easel. But art is rarely made in isolation. Collaboration is a defining characteristic of the Philadelphia cultural ecosystem\, and one that’s especially defined within the Printmaking community. Printmaking\, by nature\, invites shared space\, shared tools\, and shared knowledge. Friend of a Friend of a Friend explores the friendship between Ben Kraemer and Claire Cooke\, est. 2017 at Tyler School of Art\, and how their connection\, through their joint practice at Pet Riso Studio and beyond\, reflects a broader culture of interdependence. Here\, friendship isn’t just a social bond\, it’s a defining characteristic of creating form. \n \nAbout the Artists \nBen Kraemer is an artist and printmaker living and working in Philadelphia. His artistic practice has largely focused on the creation of artists’ books\, zines\, and other printed matter. His body of work investigates the role of memory in the formation of identity and has drawn inspiration and context from his multi-racial background. This has culminated in drawings\, prints and books containing family photographs\, imagery from film and television\, and appropriated cultural icons. \nHe holds a BFA in Printmaking from the Tyler School of Art and since 2022 has been running the collaborative printshop Pet Riso Studio with Claire Cooke. \nClaire Cooke works primarily through photographic printmaking processes\, with her most recent focus being risography. With degrees in both Printmaking and Art History\, Claire references the historical aspect of printmaking\, i.e. mass-production\, merchandising\, and commercial engagement\, and turns it around on itself by creating absurd\, humorous\, and satirical printed matter. Claire sources her imagery from content posted on social media platforms\, stock photos\, and even photos living in her own camera roll\, and gives them a life outside of the digital landscape. This gives us a chance to appreciate the technicality of the mediums she works in and her ability to create visually-interesting pieces\, while also enjoying the absurdity of the pieces themselves. It allows us to contemplate the consumption of mass-media without feeling overwhelmed by it all\, instead giving us a silly reminder that we can take something seen as superficial and make it something to behold!
