Stagione di Pomodoro Finito

Early Tomatos / Early Harkrader
It's the end of the growing season in Virginia for tomatos.
A favoite in the Harkrader household every summer = open faced tomato sandwich, toasted with mayo.
This year the Cherokee Purple was a favorite. The painting above is an early Harkrader, small oil on canvas. From still life to sustained life. Thank you tomato.

Salon Jesienny 2010, czyli ranking artystów

Salon to nie tylko prezentacja rocznego dorobku lokalnych artystów, to również ranking. Tym razem na szczycie, za wskazaniem jurorów z ASP we Wrocławiu i w Katowicach, znalazł się Robert Suchiński, laureat Nagrody Marszałka Województwa Opolskiego (4 tys. zł). W jego pracy - rzeźbie z drutu - dostrzeżono "bezkompromisowy przekaz artystyczny przy zastosowaniu oszczędnych środków wyrazu”.
The Harkrader's are hosting Robert Suchinski in their home and studio while Suchinski is in Virginia working on an installation.

Public Art - Zakim Bunker Hill - Boston


Public Art Sculpture - The Zakim Bunker Hill Memorial Bridge in Boston was one element of the historic 'Big Dig' public works project. Harkrader photographed this cable span detail during the Bridge Walk on Sunday, Oct. 6, 2002. Approximately 800,000 people walked across two such Zakim Bunker Bridge events before the city turned the bridge over to the 'Car Gods'.
