Philip Trussell and Michael Schliefke

Michael Schliefke, a terrific painter in Austin, has put up a new page for Philip Trussell at his site, schliefkevision.

Philip's upcoming show is definitely something to look forward to.  He only shows his work once a year and you never know what you're going to see.  As he is my neighbor, friend, and teacher I often get to see his work so I know what to expect him to show, but even seeing him every day I do not see all of the work he completes (I'm pretty sure he continues to work while he sleeps).   It is my hope to produce a book of Philip's photomontages w/ adjoining text within a year.  (For as even he would say of himself, he is a poet's painter, not a painter's painter.  And if you ever want to talk Dorn, Duncan, Olson, Williams, or Pound, etc. you best be prepared for a long night.)  Also an interesting note, Philip's mentor was Harvey Brown, publisher of Frontier Press, and poetry patron extraordinaire.

Philip has remarked several times that Mike is one of the few serious young painters in Austin that he admires and anyone who knows Philip and his critique of the art scene in Austin must realize what high praise this is.  I really dig Mike's work as well and I admire his tenacity to rough it as a painter and to avoid day jobs, of which I am jealous.  He is currently a studio resident at Bolm Studios on the east side and often opens up his studio for talks and presentations.  Though I don't yet own any of Mike's work, I have high hopes!

Hard to geel a feel through pixels, but I really like what I see by Trussell.

Yeah, it's good. I'm no art critic and cannot articulate well what happens in Philip's paintings, but it's deep and it moves. I have 5 or 6 of his painting and will hopefully get many more, much to the chagrin of my lady, who thinks a diverse collection would be a better idea. I'd take all of his paintings if I could. It's fun going around to the various homes, apartments, and offices of our group of people here in Austin, everyone has at least a couple of Philip's paintings (including my lady).

I first saw Philip's mural in black beneath a (I think it was the 13th St.) Bridge on Shoal Creek. It was a vast surface of white concrete which he covered in geometric symbols that were intertwined and interlaced. Many human figures, thousands of images perhaps.
Suppose that is long gone. Met Philip at the Vanishing Point on East 6th in the late eighties. I was telling the person I was with that who ever did these pictures on the wall it was the same guy that did the mural under the bridge, and there he was. Like an elf, a sage, what an eye, such perspective.

Philip,
I too have been trying to find you. I was your painting student at Ohio University in 1967-69 and later you helped me get into Mass Art. I'd love to get in touch. I teach art at an international school in Tokyo and you remain my inspiration, I still reference the lessons you did in my work with students here. I'd love to see some of your more recent work. Do you have something online?

Philip,
Started a search after stumbling upon the pamphlet for your joint 1969 exhibit with Ruth at Muskingum College, Ohio. Also your student at OUZ. Thanks for teaching me to see. Would love to see your work. No more tubers, I assume?
Scott Patterson.
