The Dome
Gregory Hayes was recently featured in a show curated by Vik Muniz, Amani Olu, and Eugenie Tsai in conjunction with ArtBridge. After being selected by the curatorial panel, Hayes was given a special grant based on his excellence, process, and the execution of his artwork.
"I spin preexisting images at various speeds and photograph them. In this process, the colors in the original images visually amalgamate, creating a new spectrum of colors and a new overall pattern. My interest lies in temporarily changing an image visually, without changing its physical properties; the photograph is taken during a temporal shift in visual perception, but returns to its original state. In this moment of visual flux a new image is found. The original representational images are transformed into abstractions." -Gregory Hayes

"Recently five photographs of mine were selected to be а part of ArtBridge's "Works in Progress," a large-scale art installation in downtown Brooklyn, New York. I started developing these photographs in 2006 in a class I was taking with Gary Emrich at Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design. In order to get to the darkroom on campus I had to walk through a ceramics studio. One day I grabbed a small banding wheel and brought it down in to the darkroom. I began spinning photographic paper and projecting images of myself onto it, creating various forms of concentric circles. Living in Brooklyn, I no longer have immediate access..... read all

"do it" Exhibition
Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design
Denver, CO
May 6, 2011 - July 29, 2011
"do it" is a unique exhibition that centers on the notion of interpretation as an artistic principle. Starting with a manual of written, do-it-yourself instructions compiled from internationally renowned artists, the idea is for other artists to carry out the instructions and re-imagine the procedures from their own individual perspectives. These procedures range from household chores and recipes to random social activities and abstract concepts. They can be as complex as Tacita Dean’s directions for finding a four leaf clover or as simple as Louise Bourgeois’ invitation to smile at a stranger..... read all

CAA has awarded five 2010–11 Professional-Development Fellowships in the Visual Arts to artists enrolled in MFA programs across the United States. The organization has also recognized the work of five additional artists with honorable mentions.
CAA will award each fellow a one-time grant of $5,000. The fellows and honorable mentions will also receive complimentary one-year CAA memberships and free registrations for the 2011 Annual Conference in New York. In addition, Barbara Nesin, president of the CAA Board of Directors, will formally introduce and recognize the ten artists during the presentation of the 2011 Awards for Distinction, which takes place on Thursday evening, February 10, 6:00–7:30 PM, in the Grace Rainey Rogers Auditorium of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Gregory Hayes:Re-Seeing New Works
Denver Galleries Examiner
November 8, 2010
by Barbara Fenton
Be prepared to think. What seems traditionally simple is deceptively complex. Hayes, who did his undergraduate work at the Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design, was influenced by Clark Richert, considered Colorado's high priest of pattern painting. Here, Hayes chooses to address the grid. His methodology is to use a windowpane grid, then uses colors, employs mathematical formulas, and constructs a new grid that becomes a work of both precision and mood. Primary colors are the main palette, but are used dramatically and efficiently with white and black. The Primary Array Series demonstrates Hayes work ethic and intricate technique..... read all

RULE Gallery Champions Young Artists in 4.0
The Huffington Post
November 5, 2010
By Leanne Goebel
It's no secret to those in the know in Denver that Clark Richert is an influential artist. From his early days in the experimental avant garde project known as Drop City to his large mathematical paintings and recent digital projections featured in the Denver Biennial, Richert is a staple of the art world in the Rocky Mountain West. But his influence in the classroom at Rocky Mountain College of Art & Design may be his most important impact.
Richert is represented by Robin Rule and her Rule Gallery in Denver, and some have criticized the artist and his dealer for the current exhibition of young student artists entitled 4.0.
A little networking and encouragement can go a long way. Consider Robert Storr (Dean of the Yale Art School), and all of the artists and curators he has championed who have gone on to launch successful careers. Most recently, Sarah Lewis, a student of his and colleague curated

Gregory Hayes: Re-Seeing, New Works at Rule Gallery
Westword: Artbeat
October 27, 2010
By Michael Paglia
Gregory Hayes: Re-Seeing New Works is an elegant and very grown-up solo on display at Rule Gallery. It showcases the recent efforts by Hayes, an emerging artist who lives in New York, where he's in grad school. But he also has a Colorado connection, having done his undergraduate work at the Rocky Mountain College of Art and Design in Lakewood, and this makes him part of a battalion of noteworthy artists who have gone to this school.
Many of these RMCAD-ets studied with Clark Richert, the Colorado dean of pattern painting, whose style of choice is hard-edged abstraction. These former students have embraced Richert's aesthetic and conceptual insights and used them as stepping-off points for their own approaches. Besides Hayes, Richert protegés include Bruce Price, Jason Hoelscher and Karen McLanahan.
In the case of Hayes, his response to Richert has been to reinterpret, and perhaps deconstruct, established notions about grids. What Hayes...... read all

Walking up a stretch of Santa Fe Drive Arts District past Mexican and Ethiopian restaurants and tattoo shops on a Wednesday, one could wonder: is this the same stretch that sees throngs on first Fridays? Ostensibly and practically, yes. The first-Friday art walks are boons to visibility and local attendance but imply other limitations: That “staffs” of art galleries, particularly co-ops, are mainly volunteer – after the first Friday is done, they staff the spaces mostly on weekends..... read all

Gregory Hayes at Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design
Saturday, March 1, 2008 - Monday, May 19, 2008
Gregory Hayes was born in Buffalo, New York in 1980. He now lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. Gregory’s work deals with complex patters, layers, psychologies of environments, and color theories. His use of painting, photography, sculpture, installation and video, greatly represent his idea that one must be open to exploring any possibility.
"I am an artist… my job is to explore any possibility."
Gregory Hayes, Primary Array #101, acrylic on canvas, 2008, 12 x 12 inches
