FORMATIONS | New Works by Robert Ramos | A Solo Exhibition | Reception: Saturday Nov. 17th @ 6-9pm | On View thru Nov. 29, 2012
Location: GAS Gallery And Studio
411 Ridgewood Rd, Maplewood, NJ
When: November 17, 2012
Time: 6:00 pm–9:00 pm

GAS Gallery And Studio presents new works by Robert Ramos in a solo exhibition titled FORMATIONS. The show of new work is ON VIEW through November 29th, with a scheduled ARTIST RECEPTION on Saturday November 17th from 6:00 to 9:00 pm.

"I have always been fascinated with the the internal workings of all things mechanical and architectural. From pinball machines, to clocks, and the working of gears, unlocking the puzzle of movement has taken me from traditional two dimensional painting, to a fanciful exploration of my earlier architectonic paintings. Deconstructing surface images, to reveal the structure that lies beneath them lets me break down a static image into layers, which when viewed from different angles, changes the structure of the painting. The interplay of light and shadow is also an important component to my work. I like to see just how much depth I can imply in a relatively shallow space. By floating elements of line and color against each other, I can create dense, color rich dioramas evocative of the mechanical workings that intrigue me.

My most recent experimentations have included the use of cut vellum to produce a more minimal contrast to my normally brighter palette. These works are what I like to consider three-dimensional line drawings. The translucent quality of the paper allows pencil, or ink, to stay on the surface as a delicate line, and the shadows that flow through the cuts to create the impression of a second mark on the background where none exists. These differ from the color saturated pieces in that they are almost completely dependent on light to "finish" them."

- Robert Ramos


Robert Ramos has been a professional artist for over twenty-five years, and has been part of many solo and group shows in New York and New Jersey. His work is part of the permanent collection of the Newark Museum, as well as the corporate collections of IBM, AT&T, Nabisco and the New York Stock Exchange. Past commissions include work for Lee Iacocca and Lawrence Grossman, with several large-scale sculptures created for a multitude of corporate headquarters throughout the east coast. In addition to his fine art career, Mr. Ramos is often sought as a consultant for residential art installations and space planning for clients with important art collections.

For the past five years, Mr. Ramos has served as the gallery director and curator for ARTS UNBOUND in Orange New Jersey. Working closely with the director of education, Robert has worked to create a schedule of exhibits tailored to the specific needs of artists with disabilities while at the same time offering advice on presentation, framing and marketing to help further advance the artists careers through developing their promotional skills.

As part of his involvement with ARTS UNBOUND, Robert has designed and directed the opening of two retail "pop-up" holiday stores in Maplewood New Jersey, which helped expand awareness and brand identity of the gallery and craft sections of its location to a much larger audience. Robert Ramos studied at Parsons School of Design and The New York School of Interior Design. This is Mr. Ramos' first solo exhibition at GAS Gallery And Studio.

Location: Seton Hall University
400 S Orange Ave, South Orange, NJ
When: November 20, 2012
Time: 6:00 pm–8:00 pm

SOUTH ORANGE, NJ – NOVEMBER 14, 2012 – Father George Coyne. S.J., Ph.D. the McDevitt Chair of Religious Philosophy at the McDevitt Center for Creativity and Innovation of Le Moyne College in Syracuse, New York will present the annual Fr. Stanley L. Jaki, O.S.B. Distinguished Lecture of the Department of Physics at Seton Hall University on Tuesday, November 20, 2012 at 6 p.m. The special lecture will be held in the Jubilee Hall Auditorium in Jubilee Hall on Seton Hall’s South Orange campus and is part of the President's Advisory Council Distinguished Guest Lecturer Seriessponsored by the President’s Advisory Council members.

George Coyne is a Catholic priest, member of the Society of Jesus or Jesuits, and a world renowned astronomer. Father Coyne served as the Director of the Vatican Observatory from 1978 to 2006, and is currently President of the Vatican Observatory Foundation. He is considered to be one of the leading intellectuals on the topics of the interaction between science and religion.

Fr. Coyne’s lecture entitled “The Dance of the Fertile Universe: Chance and Destiny Embrace” will explore the immense quantity and variety in the universe which contains about 100 billion galaxies each of which contain on the average 200 billion stars. The lecture will focus on the scientific explanation of how the life and death of stars have provided the building blocks necessary for the evolution of life. There will then be a reflection on the question, if human life came about by chance or by necessity? The lecture will further reflect on the vast "fertility" of the universe surveyed from the aspect of the best of modern scientific understanding. A final reflection will be provided on the question: Did God do it? In his attempt to answer this question Father Coyne shall discuss how important it is to respect the richness of both religious faith and of scientific research.

Prior to the 2012 Jaki Lecture, there will be a small discussion meeting with Father Coyne in the Dean’s Conference Room on the 2nd Floor of the Walsh Library at 4 PM. The discussion will be a dialogue on the interplay between science and religion and is sponsored by the Center for Catholic Studies. Space is limited to 20 members of the Seton Hall community, anyone interested in participating in this event should RSVP by sending an email to Professor Jose L. Lopez at jose.lopez1@shu.edu.

The Department of Physics Distinguished Lecture is name in remembrance and honor of Fr. Stanley L. Jaki, O.S.B., who was a world-renowned author, physicist, science historian, philosopher, and theologian, who served as a faculty member in the Department of Physics of Seton Hall University where he attained the rank of Distinguished University Professor of Physics. In 1987 he was awarded the Templeton Prize for “his immense contribution to bridging the gap between science and religion, and his making room, in the midst of the most advanced modern science, for deep and genuine faith.” He was appointed by Pope John Paul II an honorary member of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences. On April 7, 2009 a few days after having presented a lecture at the Casina of Pope Pius IV, the headquarters of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, Fr. Jaki passed away.

This event is sponsored by the Department of Physics, the Center for Catholic Studies and the President's Advisory Council of the College of Arts and Sciences.
