texts: in Fresno, California and deeply unsatisfied with his job. Mark Ames, editor of The eXile offered Brecher a column as a "war reviewer". Brecher wrote that life in Fresno was a "death sentence" and that he spent 15 hours a day in front of a computer ("6 or 7 hours entering civilian numbers for the paycheck and the rest surfing the war news"). In a Dolan article in The eXile about the newspaper and "the strange being known as the War Nerd" (mythologizing Brecher as a separate person to <mask>), Brecher is described as a community-college dropout, and "fat, miserable, and incidentally brilliant".The first hint that Brecher was <mask> was perhaps in a 2001 eXile article, "Cleanse the World", in which <mask> openly admitted to being a "war nerd": "Oh, my poor naive war-nerd brothers, how could you ever have dreamed that Bush." The columns were the only source of information on Brecher until an email interview with him conducted by Steve Sailer was published by United Press International. Brecher's reclusive nature and the lack of information about him raised speculation during the interview that Brecher was a pseudonym for another eXile contributor. The use of invented characters was not unprecedented for the eXile. Researchers of the original Wikipedia Gary Brecher page found the photo on which the illustration at the top of each War Nerd column, supposedly representing Brecher, was based. It was actually that of Roger Edvardsen the tour manager of the Norwegian rhythm & blues band Ehem. One of the page authors

A review in the Buffalo Beast of Dolan's novel/memoir Pleasant Hell stated that "a faithful eXile reader [would] have to be as dense as young <mask> not to realize you're reading about the birth of 'Gary Brecher' – nome [sic] de guerre of the famed 'War Nerd'." In the memoir, <mask> writes of obsessively studying military history and Jane's manuals while binging on junk food in the basement of a UC Berkeley library building in the mid-seventies. In one War Nerd column, Brecher writes, "I used to spend every free hour, back before there was an internet, going over those big heavy reference books in the library: Jane's Tanks, Jane's Missile Systems, Jane's Combat Vehicles." On June 25, 2008, the following revelation was published within a short book review on Philadelphia CityPaper.net: "But the War Nerd is, in fact, neither of those things. He is not even Gary Brecher! Brecher is the creation of <mask>, a poet, novelist, lecturer in English at the University of Victoria, and The eXile co-editor.That's very exciting news for the War Nerd's regular readers: The columns you've been dissecting and debating for the last six years were written by an English professor who writes poetry!"

Every two to five weeks, Brecher published his War Nerd column in The eXile. In each installment, Brecher offered his idiosyncratic analyses of armed conflict from a military, political, or (rarely) social standpoint. In his first eXile column, Brecher declared that The War Nerd was to be "a column on how all the wars are going, kind of a war reviewer." He has since migrated to the subscription-only Radio War Nerd podcast,
"American peace truly sucks (That's what I live in and work in: American peace.Fresno. Townhouses in a dry riverbed. Scrub acreage with fancy British names. America the hot and stupid)." "That's why we need a war now and then. You can drain your dick at every bondage site on the web, but you can't really drain your head there, it takes something bigger like a decent war and some of those guncamera shots. I figure about one a year.Which is why this was already a good year." Following publication of Brecher's article, "Victor Hanson: Portrait of an American Traitor", Hanson responded with an article accusing Brecher of being an anarchist. In the September 9, 2005 of The eXile, the editors announced that the War Nerd would be suspended without pay for one issue as a result of these accusations. It is doubtful that this was a serious

 reprimand. Nonetheless, the subsequent issue of The eXile did not contain Brecher's regular column. Another similarly themed Brecher article, "It's All Greek to Victor Davis Hanson", appeared in the December 19, 2005 issue of The American Conservative. Brecher has summarized his view of modern warfare as follows:
 Most wars are asymmetrical/irregular.In these wars, the guerrillas/irregulars/insurgents do not aim for military victory. You cannot defeat these groups by killing lots of their members. In fact, they want you to do that. Hi-tech weaponry is mostly useless in these wars. "Hearts and minds," meaning propaganda and morale, are more important than military superiority. Most people are not rational, they are TRIBAL: "my gang yay, your gang boo!" It really is that simple.The rest is cosmetics. Publications

<mask> (1730–1785) was a Serbian writer, philosopher, historian, traveler, soldier, and diplomat in the Imperial Russian service. As a historiographer, <mask>'s "A Short Introduction to the History of the Slavo-Serbian People" published in Venice in 1765 was the most significant historical oeuvre of the period. Ten years later, <mask>'s translation of Marmontel's "Bélisaire" became one of the most prominent works of the Enlightenment in Serbian literature, thanks to dramatists Marko Jelisejić (1760-1833), Joakim Vujić and others. The work of Marmontel soon popularized the philosophical ideas of the Enlightenment in Austria among the large Slavo-Serbian population there and in Russia. <mask> was a contemporary of not only Jean-Francois Marmontel, but also of Serbian intellectuals like the polymaths Teodor Janković-Mirijevski, Dositej Obradović, Zaharije Orfelin, Jovan Rajić, Emanuilo Janković, Vasilije Damjanović, Pavel Kengelac, and others. Biography
Some say that <mask> was born in Segedin; others believe it was in Čurug. He comes from a noble Serbian Military Frontier family, the son of an Austrian soldier <mask>, and the nephew of Major <mask> of Segedin.Pavle attended the Lyceum in Pozun (Bratislava) from 1747 to 1753, studying the works of such well-known authors as Christian Wolff's "Psychologia rationalis" (1734) and "Cosmologia generalis" (1731), Alexander Gottlieb Baumgarten's "Metaphysica" (1739) and "Ethica philosophica" (1748), and several philosophical encyclopedias by F. C. Baumeister. Upon graduation, Julinac spoke Serbian, Slovak, German, Hungarian, Romanian, Russian, and French, and held the greatest esteem for his teacher and mentor, Slovak historian Jovan Tomka Saksi. (Saski thought that geography is a natural introduction to historical treatises, so

 he paid special attention to Serbian geography). His classmate was Vasilije Damjanović (1734-1792). The following facts seem certain: he was the son of a Serbian officer in the Austrian army who on retirement had been rewarded with a patent of nobility. A title and an estate too small to support his numerous family Pavle was entrusted to the care of his wealthy godfather, then Lieutenant Colonel Jovan Šević, who took Pavle after graduation with him to Russia. Pavle eventually entered the Russian military service and was assigned to the Russian embassy in Vienna as a courier.Slavo-Serbia and New Serbia
At the time free lands in Slavo-Serbia and New Serbia (historical province) were being offered to Serbs, Vlahs, and other Balkan people of Orthodox Christian denomination to ensure frontier protection and development of this part of Southern steppes. Slavo-Serbia was directly governed by Russia's Governing Senate. <mask> Julianc joined the mass of settlers leaving Austria for Russia, led by Rajko Preradović and Jovan Šević, his godfather. Both Preradović and Šević soon became the commandants of Slavo-Serbia. The Serbian and Vlah settlers eventually formed the Bakhmut hussar regiment in 1764. These two colonels led their soldiers in various military campaigns, in peacetime they kept the borderlands, along with the Cossacks, free from incursions by other states. Upon his arrival in Russia, <mask> immediately entered the Russian military service.In the following years, he won his colonelcy on the field of battle. Empress Elizabeth of Russia had long ago adopted the dangerous policy of remodeling the Russian army to turn into a more potent Russian Orthodox force, and Julinac, whose family adhered to the same faith—Eastern Orthodoxy—as the Russians, was selected to assist in

 this organization. During the reign of Catherine the Great, Julinac was appointed to the Russian Embassy in Vienna as a courier in 1761. Working under the protection of Prince Dmitry Mikhailovich Golitsyn (1721-1793), the Russian ambassador to Vienna from 1761 to 1793, Julinac was given a mission to liaise between Russia and the disfranchised Serbs whose territories were under both the Habsburg and Ottoman rule since the 15th century. Later, he was active in recruiting Serbian Austrians and Serbian Hungarians into the Russian military service. In 1781, Julinac is made Russian consul in Naples, while still in military service. As consul in the Port of Naples, he was charged with the duty of attending to the Russian seamen's interests there and other tasks.(It is a misdemeanor wrongfully to force a sailor on shore, or otherwise wrongfully leave him in any place before the completion of a voyage for which he was engaged). Julinac would address such issues and many other complicated ones that befall a consul in a foreign land. Eventually, ill-health would compel him to return to Austria to the Russian Embassy, and he died in Vienna on the 25th of February 1785. Works
He is best known for four books, each with a historical and literary significance of the time. Today students of Serbian historiography remember Bishop Vasilije Petrović Njegoš's "History of Montenegro" largely because it is the first published history by a Serb. (Though George Branković's "Chronicles" were first written between the 1690s and early 1700s; they remained, however, in manuscript form for a long time). Among the Serbian books published in Venice during the eighteenth century, there was the first real Serbian history, written by Julinac in 1765 with a long title: "A Short Introduction to the

But Julinac added " and give them such gracious masters as the Austrian rulers (sic)." <mask>, an officer in the Russian army and a diplomatist who spent most of his life in the service of Imperial Russia, knew when and when not to rattle the proverbial cage of the powerful. Marmontel's Belisaire was the first French novel translated into Serbian and published by Pavle <mask> in the year 1775. <mask> also translated The Song of Roland, an epic poem based on the Battle of Roncevaux in 778, during the reign of Charlemagne who became one of the principal figures in the literary cycle as Matter of France. He wrote his memoirs and a travel book of his visit to Hilandar Monastery at Mount Athos.His contemporary, the famous Serbian man of letter, Dositej Obradović, called him "Major Julinac," the highest military rank he attained while in the Russian military and diplomatic service.

<mask> (born 1 July 1961) is an English actor and producer. His international fame came with roles in historical drama shows like the Duke of Milan in all three seasons of The Borgias, and King Aelle in the first four Seasons of History channel's series Vikings. More recent projects include action thriller Gunpowder Milkshake, the series pilot for Amazon's adaptation of Stephen King's The Dark Tower and the original British Disney+ series Wedding Season. In the UK, he is also widely known for is role as Bryan in the comedy series The Green Green Grass. Early life
<mask> was born on 1 July 1961 in Northampton, Northamptonshire. His passion for entertainment started in early childhood when he recreated television adverts at age two and performed shows with his friends throughout his childhood. As an eight-year-old boy, a key experience strengthened his enthusiasm and he joined a youth theatre group at age eleven, taking over organizational duties some years later.The only family member to have been involved in the entertainment industry before was <mask>'s maternal grandmother who had been a musical star in the 1920s. As his parents were social workers who moved frequently, <mask> attended thirteen different senior schools and experienced bullying along the way. It was in a school fight that he got his nose broken. As his parents ran hostels for mentally ill people, adolescents and delinquents, <mask> came in contact with various types of behaviours and people from an early age.

 According to his own appraisal, this experience has been a helpful factor for the development of his wide-ranging repertoire. While earning his degree in English Literature at the University of Kent at Canterbury on the insistence of his parents, he performed in as many student plays as possible and started his professional career right afterward, getting an agent after one of his first serious performances in his early twenties and making his first West End theatre appearance early on. Hence <mask> had a successful theatre career already before starting his television work in his thirties.He decided to leave the theatre and turn to television in order to be able to spend time with his children while they were growing up because theatre performances in the evenings would have meant that he would not have been at home when they returned from school and university. Career
<mask> made his theatre debut in 1980 at Sadler's Wells Theatre in London as Willie Wonka in a stage version of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. More theatre roles followed throughout the 1980s and 1990s, e.g. at the Royal National Theatre and the Piccadilly Theatre (The Rocky Horror Show). In 1990, he started his television career by guest starring in the crime shows The Paradise Club and The Bill. In 1992 he played the leading part Sam Sterne in ITV's crime show Sam Saturday. Since then he has played almost 50 roles in television and, from 2004, in movies (Layer Cake, Control).<mask>'s roles in recent international

Aside from his villain roles as cold-blooded Polo Yakur (a "stand-out performance") and unscrupulous Duke Ludovico it is mainly his portrayal of King Aelle - in Vikings the deadly enemy and nemesis of the legendary hero of the show Ragnar Lothbrok (Travis Fimmel) - that has recently shaped <mask>'s international profile. In his Twitter bio he describes himself as "Villain for Hire". His performances in the second part of season 4 of Vikings have been met with increased interest as his character King Aelle is of pivotal importance in the scenes of Ragnar's death and at the centre of attention during his own execution through the blood eagle torture inflicted by Ragnar's sons in revenge for the death of their father. In an interview on his character King Aelle in September 2017, <mask> contested the assessment of this antagonist as a villain - an assessment that had already been subject to disputes between parts of the audience. Earlier internationally known roles include Reuben Starkadder in the television film Cold

Playing style
<mask> is an all-court player with an emphasis on baseline play. He has strong groundstrokes on both wings which are equally as solid and is often able to wrong-foot opponents due to his quick follow-through, forcing them to commit early. His forehand is his primary weapon, and he is known to hit inside-out forehands to draw opponents out, while his single-handed backhand is considered one of the best

 on the tour currently. It is known for its consistency, power, and his ability to hit it in a variety of ways, namely flat, with top-spin and slice.Generally playing from the baseline, Kohlschreiber constructs points and uses a sudden injection of pace or a drop-shot to draw opponents out of their comfort zone and dominate the point from there. Complementing his strong baseline play, as an all-court player, Kohlschreiber is also a proficient volleyer and uses variety to construct points. He is known to employ drop-shots mid-rally to catch opponents off-guard, especially on the backhand side. He occasionally uses a chip-and-charge tactic as well, especially on grass. It is due to the variety of shots he has that has led him to be successful on all surfaces, as can be seen by the fact that he has reached at least the fourth round of all Grand Slam tournaments and won titles on all surfaces (although he has won the most titles on clay).

<mask> (; -ghee; born March 12, 1936) is an American physician and epidemiologist who is credited with "devising the global strategy that led to the eradication of smallpox in the late 1970s". From May 1977 to 1983, Foege served as the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Foege also "played a central role" in efforts that greatly increased immunization rates in developing countries in the 1980s. In June 2011, he authored House on Fire: The Fight to Eradicate Smallpox, a book on modern science, medicine, and public health over the smallpox disease. On September 23, 2020, he sent a private letter to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Robert R. Redfield urging him to acknowledge in writing that the CDC had responded poorly to COVID-19 and to set a new course for how CDC would lead the United States' response, calling the White House's approach "disastrous." Early life
Foege was born March 12 1936 in Decorah, Iowa. He was the third of six children born to <mask>. Foege, a Lutheran minister, and Anne Erika Foege.The family lived in Eldorado, Iowa in Fayette County, starting in 1936 and moved to Chewelah, Washington, in 1945. In his younger days he was inspired by the life of his uncle, a Lutheran missionary to New Guinea. He became interested in science at age 13 when working at a pharmacy, and read extensively about the world (e.g., Albert Schweitzer's work in Africa) while in a body cast for several months at age 15. When a teenager he expressed a desire to practice medicine in Africa. Education
Foege received a B.A. from Pacific Lutheran University in 1957. He attended medical school at the University of Washington, where he became interested in public health while working "after school and on Saturdays" at the Seattle–King County Health Department.After receiving his M.D. in 1961, he completed an internship with the United

 States Public Health Service hospital at Staten Island in 1961–1962. He participated in the Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) between 1962 and 1964, assigned to Colorado. When Foege was with the EIS, he was inspired by Alexander Langmuir to pursue global health, and spent a short time with the Peace Corps in India under Charles Snead Houston. Upon reading a lecture on priorities in public health by Thomas Huckle Weller, Foege entered the Master of Public Health program at the Harvard School of Public Health where he studied with Weller. He received his M.P.H. in 1965.Smallpox eradication
While working for the Centers for Disease Control in Africa as Chief of the Smallpox Eradication Program, <mask> developed the highly successful surveillance and “ring vaccination” strategy to contain smallpox spread. This greatly reduced the number of vaccinations needed, ensuring that the limited resources available sufficed to make smallpox the first infectious disease to be eradicated in human history. For his efforts to eradicate smallpox, Foege was the co-winner of the 2020 Future of Life Award along with Viktor Zhdanov. "We're all indebted to <mask> and Viktor Zhdanov for their critical contributions to the eradication of smallpox, which demonstrated the immense value of science and international collaboration for fighting disease", said António Guterres, Secretary General, United Nations. Dr. <mask> who wrote an article about "Smallpox was one of the worst diseases to ever befall the human race, and its eradication is one of the greatest achievements of humanity. <mask> and Viktor Zhdanov should be celebrated for their contributions, and should inspire us today to take effective action to tackle the world's most pressing problems." In consideration of the achievements of Zhdanov and Foege, Bill Gates added, "They

Career
Foege's research includes child survival and development, injury prevention, population, preventive medicine, and public health leadership—particularly in the developing world.He is a strong proponent of disease eradication and control and has taken an active role in the eradication of Guinea Worm Disease, polio and measles, and the elimination of river blindness. In May 1977, he became the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and served until 1983. Directorship aside, he has also held various positions during his career:

<mask> (Guf-fogg; born August 12, 1962) is an American artist associated with the abstract art movement. He has worked in the media of painting, drawing, and sculpture. Guffogg lives and works between Los Angeles and Strathmore, California. Early life and education
<mask> was born in Los Angeles on the 12th of August 1962. At the age of four, he and his family moved to Lindsay, a small farming town in the San Joaquin Valley. In 1975, his family moved to Strathmore, the neighboring town, because they bought an exotic bird farm. He worked on the farm during his teen years.In the late 1970s Guffogg realized his passion for art and convinced his parents to let him build a studio on the farm. After graduating high school in 1980, Guffogg traveled around Europe visiting various art museums for two months. That fall, he began studying art in a local community college in the Tulare County area. In fall of 1983, he entered the fine arts program at California Institute of the Arts, also known as “Cal Arts.”  Attending Cal Arts was a recommendation by artist, Joe Goode after Guffogg visited his studio earlier that year. Douglas Huebler became Guffogg's mentor at Cal Arts because of his influence in the conceptual art movement. He received his B.F.A. from Cal Arts in 1985.He was an assistant to Ed Ruscha and Joe Goode from 1989 until 1995. Work
Guffogg's works consist of mediums such as oils on canvas or paper, watercolors, gouache, pastels on paper, and traditional etchings on zinc plates. The size of Guffogg's pieces can range anywhere between 10” x 8” to 10’ x 8’. The paintings with oils typically have as many as 60 to 70 layers of translucent colors. These colors are

 mixed with a glazing medium that gives these works an illuminated look. This particular process of layering is customary of the Masters and shows how Guffogg's work is rooted in ways of historical European painting techniques. After visiting the work of the Master's in person during his European travels, Guffogg came to the realization that art is a language in itself as it can explain certain things words cannot.As a result, his works can be thought to be its own language of signs and symbols through its patterns, visual depth and light; which can, in turn, emit emotion to the viewer and hints to Quantum Physics and Super String Theory. Early Influences
Guffogg's attraction to art began at an early age. In the late 1960s his mother would take him to the library to check out books. Many of these books were art books with pictures of the art created by the masters, Da Vinci, Rembrandt, and Van Gogh. He saw their works as magic and wanted to be a part of that. From then on he was always drawing or painting. Guffogg said, “I would look at a tube [of paint] and smell it and dab a little bit on my fingers and wonder how artists could take this substance and make it into a work of art.I thought it was like alchemy, like magic. So I always wanted to be a magician in that regard.”

His fascination with the masters and art only continued as he flew to Europe the day after he graduated high school to finally see the works he had admired in person. He visited the National Gallery in London and was inspired to create a self-portrait of himself in Rembrandt's style after seeing Rembrandt's portrait. However, it was not until he saw “The Last Supper” in Milan where he knew he


texts:
 would be an artist. After that summer, Guffogg enrolled in Porterville College where he put all his focus on painting and studied art history. He felt that it was important to study art history because he felt that it was essential to understanding the art world if one wanted to be a part of it. He looked at it as if it were a conversation that had gone on for years and in order to be fully immersed in it, he must understand how the dialogue began.At the same time, he was curious about Einstein's theory of relativity and space. After studying at CalArts he returned to Strathmore to live with his family and began painting fruit at the family's farm. This homecoming changed his thoughts of how he could contribute to the dialogue of the masters. Guffogg explained, “I began wondering what thoughts look like before we attach language to them. I was also wanting to make paintings that hover between abstraction and realism – between what we see and what we sense.”

New York City
In 1985, he was chosen by Huebler and other faculty members at CalArts to attend an internship in New York where he could work at a gallery, museum, or as an artist assistant. Guffogg chose to work alongside New York artist, Gary Stephan. The internship lasted around six months, Guffogg chose to focus on learning and watching Stephan work and chose to make no artwork during this time.Pharmaka
In 2003, Guffogg began meeting weekly with fellow artists John Scane and Vonn Sumner, and art dealer, Adam Gross, discussing art and the LA art scene. Guffogg created a manifesto for the group that explained the ideas discussed within the group. The manifesto became a constitution which would be called


texts:
 Pharmaka. The name Pharmaka was utilized after their dialogue became public when they opened it up through three exhibitions in Downtown Los Angeles, Hollywood, and Los Feliz. The Pharmaka non-profit gallery space opened in Downtown Los Angeles in 2004 and stayed until 2009. This space was used for different exhibitions and to continue to open up the dialogue of the current state of contemporary art for artists and curators. Guffogg's involvement in Pharmaka allowed him to become a pillar in the arts community.During this period, Guffogg lectured at the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD), Pharmaka, and the Orange County's Art Crowd. Additionally, he curated numerous exhibitions and had a strong voice in the Los Angeles art community. As a result, he was given a position on the board of the downtown neighborhood council to represent art, culture, and education. He also became a chair for the Downtown Arts Committee. Pattern Paintings
Guffogg began creating his pattern paintings in the 90's. These works are created through 70 to 80 layers of translucent oil paint on canvas in order for the pieces to display illumination from within. What is different about the pattern paintings is that Guffogg paints a pattern over his usual pattern found in other works.The patterns are painted lightly and look as if a painted lace was draped over <mask>'s work. He creates the patterns seen in these works by starting at the left-hand corner and working his way across the canvas. This method of applying the pattern to the painting shows Guffogg's attention to conscious and subconscious perceptions and his fascination with the way the human psyche operates. As a result, the

<mask> began his At the Still Point series in 2009. The series was inspired and its name was taken from T.S. Eliot's poem, ‘Burnt Norton (No.1 of Four Quartets).’  He first read the poem, years previous to the series’ creation, however, he returned to it because Guffogg feels that the poem addresses his concerns about the art world and the world of painting in the 21st century. Guffogg stated, “for me this is a continuous conversation between past and present, and about creating movement out of stillness in order to make the abstract real.” Although most works in the abstract movement are about flattening of pictorial space and denying the Renaissance window, in this series Guffogg's goal was to create it. The movement of light through the ribbons in the series documents his own physicality through brushstrokes seen within the paintings. The ribbons create a web through each movement of the brush as each movement requires a counter movement so balance occurs within the piece. As a result, it makes the viewer think the web consists of a single line. He was also inspired by William Turner's seascapes that were made from 1835 to 1846, Mark Rothko's last works on paper, pieces by Rembrandt, and Jasper John's early ‘Alphabet’ paintings. Guffogg sees this series as a conversation with the artists that inspired him.Ginevra de Benci
Guffogg's Ginevra de Benci series of paintings are inspired by Leonardo da Vinci's "Ginevra de Benci” painting. The series was created following Guffogg's “At the Still Point Series” and is thought of as an evolution of that


texts:
 series. The portrait by Leonardo da Vinci is on display at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. The series by Guffogg consists of fifty-two oil on canvas pieces that are meant to symbolize a conversation between Guffogg and Da Vinci. Each painting in the series is titled Ginevra de Benci then numbered. The series appeared in Guffogg's 2013 exhibition, titled, “The Annunciation of Ginevra de’Benci: Conversations with Leonardo.”

The series displays Guffogg's illuminated ribbon motif created in combination with oil paint and resin. The combination of these two materials gives these paintings bursts of light.The tangled ribbons give hints at Leonardo's portrait of de Benci and feminine shape. One can see how Guffogg utilizes abstraction and string theory, modern mathematical and scientific tools, and how Da Vinci utilized classicism and science and math of his time within his work. Lumen Lapsis
"Lumen Lapsis" series consists of pastels on paper. In Latin, “lumen lapsis” means, “light falling”. This name is meant to capture the use of light, which is always present in Guffogg's artwork. Additionally, these works utilize light to display the cascading colors of the medium. Lumen Lapsis is also meant to display “thought and process”, working simultaneously, as Guffogg is able to manifest these pieces over one sitting, completing a dialogue with each work.While creating, Guffogg believes he is able to truly connect with each pastel, unlike oils, that need to be worked over a number of sessions, and take time to dry,  pastels allow him to create dimensional layers, as there is no drying time and it allows him to create a “pure moment.”

Murano Glass

“The


texts:
 Fifth Sound” is the name of Guffogg's Murano glass pieces. The inspiration that would later create this series came to Guffogg in 1997. He began drawing the negative space between the ribbons found in his oil paintings. Then Guffogg would fold the paper with the drawing of negative space in half then cut out the shape would appear as a mirrored image. These shapes created from negative space in his paintings spurred the idea of creating sculptures and would later become templates for the Murano glass series, “The Fifth Sound.”

In 2004, Guffogg was approached by a Venetian art dealer that was looking to have a California artist collaborate with a Murano glass master. He then pursued this opportunity and went to Venice. There, he learned the history of Murano glassmaking.He collaborated with the glass master to display this negative space found with in his oil paintings in a three- dimensional sculpture form. Guffogg and the glass master proceeded with this, and “The Fifth Sound” Murano glass series came to fruition. Guffogg sees these pieces as extensions of his two-dimensional work. These pieces are hand blown and then sanded down so they appear more opaque. Some pieces in the series are also mirror coated as well. Sapere Aude
Sapere Aude is a series that Guffogg began in 2016. Like many of his series, this one is also based on the movement of light.Guffogg uses his signature ribbon motif through oils on canvas in flesh tones. The series’ name Sapere Aude means “Dare to Know” in latin. The flesh tones are used to depict the human form and its constant evolution through life and society. Through these works he strives to make his viewer question the themselves,

In 2019, <mask>g began the series, A Rose is a Rose is a Rose. This series was inspired by Gertrude Stein and his ranch in Central California. The name of this series comes from a line in Gertrude Stein’s 1913 poem, “Sacred Emily.” He was also inspired by a lecture she spoke at Oxford University where she shared that the word “rose” has three meanings: a person’s name, a flower, and a concept.He also found inspiration from his blooming orchard at his ranch is Central California. There he has planted over 100 different fruit trees and of course roses as well. While up at his ranch, he starts each day tending to this orchard and then begins to paint. The evolution of these plants, blossoming and bearing delicious fruits sparked inspiration for this series. These pieces depict a delicacy of a rose in a silent, abstract form. He utilizes oils on canvas to depict these dreamy shapes and swirl of a rose in an abstract way. They enamor the viewer as Guffogg demonstrates the evolution of a blossoming rose in these works.Collections

<mask> (June 17, 1922 – March 9, 2011) was an American ceramic artist, painter, sculptor, and educator who was known for her rounded, closed forms that viewed ceramics as a fine art and more than a functional vessel. She is of Japanese descent and from Pepeeko, Hawaii. Early life and education
<mask> was born to Japanese immigrant parents in Pepeekeo, Hawaii, on 17 June 1922. She moved to Honolulu in 1940, where she worked at the Hawaii Potter's Guild creating identical pieces from press molds. While she hated creating hundreds of identical pieces, she appreciated that she could practice glazing. Takaezu attended Saturday classes at the Honolulu Museum of Art School (1947 to 1949) and attended the University of Hawaii (1948, and 1951) where she studied under Claude Horan. From 1951 to 1954, she continued her studies at Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan (1951), where she met Finnish ceramist Maija Grotell, who became her mentor.Takaezu earned an award after her first year of study, which acknowledged her as an outstanding student in the clay department. Career
In 1955, Takaezu traveled to Japan, where she studied Zen Buddhism, tea ceremony, and the techniques of traditional Japanese pottery, which influenced her work. While studying in Japan, she worked with Kaneshige Toyo and visited Shoji Hamada, both influential Japanese potters. She taught at several universities and art schools: Cranbrook Academy of Art, Bloomfield Hills, Michigan; University of Wisconsin, Madison, Wisconsin; Cleveland Institute of Art, Cleveland, Ohio (10 years); Honolulu Academy of Art, Honolulu, Hawaii; and Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey (1967–1992), where she was awarded an honorary doctorate. She retired in 1992 to become a studio artist, living and working in the

 Quakertown section of Franklin Township, Hunterdon County, New Jersey, about 30 miles northwest of Princeton. In addition to her studio in New Jersey, she made many of her larger sculptures at Skidmore College in Saratoga Springs, New York. Takaezu made functional wheel-thrown vessels early in her career.Later she switched to abstract sculptures with freely applied poured and painted glazes. In the early 1970s, when she didn't have access to a kiln, she painted on canvas. Work
Takaezu treated life with a sense of wholesomeness and oneness with nature; everything she did was to improve and discover herself. She believed that ceramics involved self-revelation, once commenting, "In my life I see no difference between making pots, cooking and growing vegetables... there is need for me to work in clay... it gives me answers for my life." When she developed her signature “closed form” after sealing her pots, she found her identity as an artist. The ceramic forms resembled human hearts and torsos, closed cylindrical forms, and huge spheres she called “moons.” Before closing the forms, she dropped a bead of clay wrapped in paper inside, so that the pieces would rattle when moved. She was once asked by Chobyo Yara what the most important part of her ceramic pieces is.She replied that, it is the hollow space of air within, because it cannot be seen but is still part of the pot. She relates this to the idea that what's inside a person is the most important. Death and legacy
Takaezu died on March 9, 2011 in Honolulu, following a stroke she suffered in May 2010. The Toshiko Takaezu Foundation was established in 2015, to support the legacy of the artist <mask> Takaezu. Exhibitions

Crow Agency: Battle of the Little Big Horn is part of her Battlefield Panoramas series (1981–84), which references the nineteenth-century panorama photography tradition of Edweard Muybridge and William Henry Jackson. This color photography series represents a bodily immersion view of the battlefield from the perspective of those on the ground fighting rather than from the traditional landscape perspective from on high. The views are dominated by the tall grasses and draws of the Montana landscape. All That Is Solid
Her installation piece All that is Solid was displayed from 1992 to 2001 in five cities throughout the United States. She installed each piece based on their location; <mask> wanted the work to reflect the area's de-industrialization in addition to former industrial areas through the local details.Manifest Series
