—a working printmaking studio and shop<\/a> featuring the work of S.V. Medaris<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Where are you?<\/h1>\n

Well the shop<\/a> is online, but geographically, we are situated on a farm in southern Wisconsin’s driftless area accompanied by dogs, cats, chickens, peafowl and (before butchering season, that is from spring to fall) hogs, turkeys and broiler chickens. After eleven successful solo exhibitions in nine years, each of them focused on domestic animal husbandry (A One Chick Show, The Lives of Farm Dogs, The Whole Hog, The Tunnel of Mortality…), S.V. (Sue) continues to investigate historical changes in livestock rearing, breed genetics, feed consumption, processing animals for meat, and how it affects our lives and the food we eat. The artwork explores our relationship with the animals we raise for consumption as well as those we care for in companionship. The models you see in the artwork have all lived on the farm here (or on nearby farms) at one time or another.<\/p>\n

But where’s all the paintings?<\/h1>\n

You can see pretty much all of Medaris\u2019 artwork at S.V. Medaris Fine Art<\/a>\u2014the paintings, etchings, pastels, and all the rest from Sue\u2019s portfolio\u2014starting from The One Chick Show<\/a> and continuing up to the present. Sue is represented by Artisan Gallery<\/a> in Paoli, WI, and that’s where you can find her framed artwork and some of her larger-size artwork. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
