Jan and Art have done a fantastic job capturing so much of the CLA 2012 Show and making it available for all to get a glimpse of. There is such a huge amount of talent exressed in the displays at that show and it never ceases to amaze me how much of it Jan diligently captures with her camera.
Thanks Art and Jan - it is appreciated by those who could attend and those who could not! Really enjoy this site.
When Robert Weil started collecting images for the Contemporary Makers book in 1973 the challenge to record contemporary gun work was daunting. Gathering material was difficult and time consuming. Few makers thought that there was any value in published documentation of their work. Electronic publishing has changed all that. Having a website or having one's work available to view on the internet is becoming a necessity. In spite of all the potential to finally have a true overview of what's being produced by the artists of today, a great deal of work still remains covered up and basically unknown. Our role is to make an effort to document some portion of what’s going on today. To comment on the established makers and to uncover the unknown. We welcome your comments and suggestions and look to you our readers to make us aware of the talented makers out there. Art and Jan Riser Robert Weil and The Makers
