"Sublime Views" and "Plato's Dichotomy" Lithographs

Two more lithographs from North Dakota artist, Ryan Stander.

The first, titled "Sublime Views" makes reference via the map to the Hudson River School of painters and their uniquely American religious outlook upon the landscape. Over this partial map are the definitions of pantheism and panentheism to suggest their religious views merged into the landscape. This print is 7.5 x 15.75 and is numbered at 3 of 4.

Bid for this item stands at $50.00

This second print, "Plato's Dichotomy" suggests the Plato's philosophical lineage upon Western thought. By using a landscape divided in half between earth and sky it becomes a symbol of Plato's ideas of division between matter and spirit, body and soul, light and dark. This image is printed in a light greenish grey, measures 7.5 x 7.75, and is numbered 8 of 10.

Both are printed on Rives BFK paper and come unmatted and unframed.

Special Edition Monopoly Game

This is a special edition Monopoly Game issued by Chrysler. It is in its original shrink wrap.

"Poly Presence" and "Topos/Chora" Lithographs

These two lithographs come from the same series as those posted earlier.

The first, "Poly-presence" suggests the fragmented identity under the weight of post-modernism by repeating the same set of blue-prints and plotting three different interconnected locations.  This print is numbered 6 of 6 and is 15x9.5.

The second print of a landscape from Cyprus draws upon the ancient philosophical ideas of place...one being that place is mere coordinates that have no effect upon us and the other that place emerges only through human cultivation. The print is in a nice green and dark blue, numbered 4 of 5, and is 13x7.5.

Both are printed on Rives BFK paper and come unmatted and unframed. 

"Peace Garden State" & "Choke" Lithographs

Two more lithographs, from North Dakota artist Ryan Stander.  

The first is entitled "Peace Garden State" is a "state 1" print (rather than a final edition) and suggests the irony of the states vast nuclear arsenal represented in the map and simultaneously having the prominent Peace Gardens with Canada and the moniker of the Peace Garden State.

The second print is called "Choke" and was made for an upcoming show in Dickinson ND on the benefits of recycling.  It insinuates the dangers of   our litter to wildlife.  This print is numbered 10/10.  Both are printed on Rives BFK paper. 

"Imitatio" Lithograph

This lithographic print is entitled "Imitatio," (Latin for imitation) plots the 14 traditional points of the stations of the cross suggesting that one imitates Jesus by following this path. The print measures 10" by 16 1/2", is hand signed and numbered at 4 of 8 total prints. It is printed on white Rives BFK paper.

Amish Quilt

This is a beautiful Amish quilt made by the Amish woman who lives next to Quinn's family in Wisconsin. It is hand pieced and quilted. It is a large quilt, and would not fit on the hanger without folding the edges under. The log cabin border is full and matching on all the edges of the quilt. The quilt is generous for a double bed, and I think could possibly be used on a queen size. Approximate dimensions are 93x105

The White/Purple Daylily has a bid of $50.00.

Win one of the daylilies shown and the right to name it! The daylily will then be sold throughout the United States as well as internationally so the name you give it will live on. You will be able to name the daylily whatever you want as long as the name conforms to international naming conventions and has not already been used. We will help you with that process. You can name it for a person; Lovely Margie, Lane Eller Memorial and Betty Ford are examples of this. You can name it something fun that tickles your funny bone such as Blue Hippo, Fashion Police and Quinny the Pooh. You can name it with a biblical connotation; Born to Reign, All God's Children and Heavenly Realms are examples. The possibilities are only limited by your own imagination. In addition to the value of the plant, the right to name a daylily such as one of these will normally sell for $50-$5000.00. What a unique gift this would be for some one this Holiday season!
