Now this is for real we have taken into consideration your very unusual directions and have come up with artworks that we believe are a great starting point for your collection. Before we start lets get out of the way the boring money stuff- we work in a very simple manner which is crystal clear and avoids any monkey business. We will take care of sourcing work, negotiating the retail price, shipping, insurance, hanging and lighting and if there are any conservation issues we will address those too. We will invoice you directly a 10% fee of the final discounted price of the individual work. This will mean that the gallery or artist, will invoice you directly and that there is no speculation on anyone's part. All the prices attached to the details of each artwork are the gallery prices pre discount. We just ask you to give first option on any works you may want to sell in the future. This is Paul Fryer. Look at the works, in my mind this is work that fits with your directions and you should seriously consider these available pieces. He is a true mad scientist artist. Paul Fryer Available Works / Information and Prices • Paul Fryer, Aurora, 2008 Aluminium frame, borosilicate bell jar, high speed scroll pump, embedded control unit, stainless steel sphere, ceramic insulators, high voltage transformer, neodymium iron boron magnets 160 x 60 x 60 cm Edition of 5 Aurora could be called Aurora Vitralis; it is a recreation of the Auroral display we normally see from here on Earth in a glass bell jar. In the work we are looking down onto the Earth (or Terrella) and seeing the excited particles generated by the Solar Wind swirling in the magnetosphere of our Little Earth. Look closely and you will be able to see tiny electrical discharges firing into the conductive plasma from the sphere. The environment inside the bell jar is the same as that in space, 100 miles above our heads. The unimaginably huge Aurora Borealis is effectively captured here in miniature in a glass jar. Aurora- GBP 85,000.00 • Paul Fryer, Evening Star, 2008 EFTA00764302 Aluminium frame, borosilicate bell jar, high speed scroll pump, embedded control unit, stainless steel outer grid, tantalum Inner grid, ceramic insulators, high voltage transformer, neodymium iron boron magnet 160 x 60 x 60 cm Edition of 5 I was Interested in the possibility of producing a tiny star, and I was looking into a phenomenon called Sonoluminesence, which literally means sound-glow, but it proved to be too difficult to harness. It seemed a natural step from there to discover from my colleague Colin Dancer that the 'Fusor' , an high vacuum inertial Electrostatic Confinement device was the best way to achieve this preposterous result. The Star In A Jar is basically a simple fusion reactor in a bell Jar. What you see when the machine is fired up is a small sun inside a glass dome in a vacuum almost as empty as outer space. The work comprises two sets of metal hoops (or grids as we refer to them), one twelve Inches in diameter, and the other, the centre grid, approximately one-fifth of this. These are contained within a bell Jar which Is connected to a high vacuum system. When the air is removed from the Jar, and the Inner grid is charged to around 8Kv (the outer is earthed) any residual particles of gas are accelerated at close to light speed towards the centre of the Inner grid, where they collide and form a superheated plasma ball. This happens because there is nothing to stop them being accelerated, and the vacuum also insulates the heat which quickly builds up due to these collisions. Temperatures of 10,000,000 degrees C are easily exceeded; this has been proven by the readiness with which Deuterium will fuse when Introduced Into a system like this one. It is not a thing that we would normally observe from closer than 93,000,000 miles. It is a tiny nuclear furnace held in place by the mysterious forces of electrostatic confinement, a ball of Incandescent elemental gas stripped of its electrons, in effect a tiny living star in a bell Jar, on the Earth. Evening Star- GBP85,000.00 • Paul Fryer, Revelation (Rain) 2008 Primary scintillator plates, wavelength shifting bars, silicone optical couplers, photomultiplier tubes, low-noise amplifiers, ultra- high speed comparators and correlator, control logic, high voltage power supply and capacitor bank, hydrogen thyratron and trigger circuit, Teflon insulated high voltage wire, aluminium baseplate, steel supports, acetal insulators, aluminium discharge plates, vitrine, neon-helium gas, circulation pump, valves, gas bladder, calcium oven, oxygen sensor, tinted toughened side panels Revelation GBP150,000.00 There is another piece I really want you to see, called the Metatron. I will be sending this over the next weeks its really phenomenal. I look forward to hearing your thoughts as I know this work is for you. Lets speak once you have had a look.
