October, 2007

Artists for Conservation, a worldwide artists group Honors David C. Gallup with it's "Conservation Artist of the Month" award for his work with the Channel Islands.

Workshop Magazine, a quarterly publication put out by American Artist Magazine has an in-depth feature of Gallup's 2006 plein-air workshop from Rock Island, Tennessee in the Summer 2007 issue.

The article is entitled "Making Color Sing", by Alison Malafronte. She joined Gallup for his weeklong workshop in Tennessee in 2006 and turned her experience into a wonderful article giving highlights of Gallup's color theory as it relates to music, and what he finds important in art. Several student works from the workshop are also included, along with Gallup's critiques given to those paintings. You're sure to find it an enjoyable read and a wonderful magazine both for the aspiring serious artist and for the collector who would like to have a better understanding of what goes in to making a painting.

The acquisition marks the first time a museum has acquired one of Gallup's major works for it's permanent collection. This is considered to be a major milestone within the industry, and validates Gallup's recent arrival as a prominent American Artist.

Reviews
Features, reviews and articles David Gallup and his work:

"David Gallup is a master of light. He has the rare ability to use oil paint — normally a dense and opaque medium — to capture the most intangible qualities of natural illumination." ~ Michael Zakian, Director of the Frederick R. Weisman Museum of Art


"Regardless of the location of the subject, climate, or conditions under which it was painted; Gallup's work captures the true, natural feel of the light encompassing the scene. The result is simply the monumental beauty of nature." ~ Jean Stern, Director of the Irvine Museum


“David Gallup is a luminist in the classical definition of the word, with an ability to capture light in the landscape in a manner unmatched by most contemporary artists. In his paintings, something far greater than scenery is being recorded--it is a sense of place, the spirit of nature, and an impression of light that speaks directly to the soul of the viewer.” ~Allison Malafronte, Staff Writer for American Artist Magazine and Workshop Magazine
