Art Review in Winnipeg Free Press
Artist explores intersection of tradition and technology
by Stacey Abramson
Connections between old and new media in artwork create important and engaging visual conversations about the changing face of contemporary art. Local artist Derek Bruekner examines these changes, and also looks at how technology is affecting the human body, through his works in Watching Velocity Dry -- a series of digitally altered painting and prints.
These latest works by Bruckner show the artist exploring the relationships between digital and traditional artistic media. Cre8ery's manager Jordan Miller says viewers have been noting that the works show the University of Manitoba school of art professor "breaking free" from his former method of working, which leaned toward the more traditional side of painting.

Artist Statement for "Watching Velocity Dry":
Currently working with technology in relation to drawing/painting and the figure/body. The work involves dialectics (exchange of conflicting ideas) encompassing the processes of haptic (hand made), ocular and digital image making.
The result of this dialectic attempts to bridge and or blur the pictorial spaces of physical paint processes with the dematerialization of Photoshop. Ultimately the work explores a reaffirmation of painting/drawing in relation to the ambivalence of technology.
The subject matter that culminates within the work references corporeal entities, mutations, cell division, systems, patterns, or spectacle. Overall the work’s imagery and processes becomes a metaphor for the cultural impact of technology in and on the body and the way the body feels and perceives.
In the end it is my hope that the fusion of a painter’s sensibility with Photoshop will slow down or offer a subtle resistance to the sonic production and consumption of digital imagery.
