With her latest works, the Leipzig-based artist continues her series of psychogram-like portraits of selected female artists. She also takes a look at herself. Profound emotional worlds become visible in Carina Linge's perfectly staged still lifes and body paintings. Sensual beauty meets a great melancholy and fragility, which ... More | |

Exhibition of new sculptures by Latvian artist Indrikis Gelzis on view at Polina Berlin GalleryNEW YORK, NY.- Polina Berlin Gallery is presenting Bingo Gaze, an exhibition of new sculptures by Latvian artist Indrikis Gelzis, on view through October 19, 2024. Comprising four sculptures and a spatial intervention with a narrative sound and timed-light component, the exhibition invites a contemplation of human perception. The works included approximate the height of a person; though static, their sinuous steel limbs appear as though they may be functional. Their voluminous cores unfold outward, opening up and peering out onto the world. In turns, the exhibition space is washed in red, green, and blue light, respectively; the primary colors of the RGB spectrum that, when combined, reproduce an infinite array of colors. The light abruptly changes with a click, like a game show moving on to its next segment. Concurrently, the space is bathed ... More Morgan Lehman Gallery opens an exhibition of works by Maine-based painter Hilary IronsNEW YORK, NY.- At the center of motion is a silent core of stillness; in the midst of growth and change is a thread of steady transcendence that moves in and out of visibility. A Place of Greater Safety, Maine-based painter Hilary Irons' first show with Morgan Lehman, takes its title from Hilary Mantel's 1992 novel of the same name, and its thematic content points to the sanctuaries found hidden within turbulence. In Irons' paintings images of landscapes, flowers, shells, and the ephemera of the built environment negative space becomes a home for a steady, reliable refuge from the clamor of growth. Over an atomized spray of warm colors and abstract stencils, Irons builds compositions in colored pencil, acrylic, and oil paint, with marble dust imparting light-absorbing sparkle and optical transcription informing invention. A sense of dissolving ...

Two pieces (lots 34 and 69) were acquired by the Musée dOrsay, and another (lot 57) went to the Musée de lÃcole de Nancy, ... More 'Silke Schönfeld: You Can't Make This Up' opens at HMKV Hartware MedienKunstVereinDORTMUND.- You Cant Make This Up is a fitting title for Silke Schönfelds solo exhibition at HMKV. Her films are political reflections that often take place in unexpected spatial and temporal contexts, seamlessly moving between documentary and fiction. As filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard once wrote, the difference between objective documentary film and art is a matter of involvement: As soon as you are interested, fiction is in play. And the fact that Schönfeld is interested becomes immediately clear when watching her films. They are about humanityincluding our own. Schönfelds works interweave personal stories with historical and social contexts. For her, the appeal of the documentary form is that it allows her to reveal the general or common within the specific. A participant observer, she focuses on people, be they individuals or social groups. ... More Thaddaeus Ropac opens an exhibition celebrating the centenary of Sturtevant's birthPARIS.- On the centenary of Sturtevants birth, this exhibition celebrates the work of the pioneering American artist, spanning over five decades. The exhibition centres around Sturtevants 1995 repetition of Felix Gonzalez-Torress Untitled (Go-Go Dancing Platform) (1991), and retraces the evolution of her practice, from an early painting shown at her first exhibition in Europe in 1966, at Galerie J, Paris, to a significant video installation that manifests her later interest in the frenzy of fast-moving imagery that characterises our postmodern times. The exhibition is conceived in commemoration of an artist whose groundbreaking practice continues to confront us with an audacious and provocative rethinking of art, and as a celebration of art itself. Sturtevants repetitions, by memory, of artworks by her contemporaries are not copies, ... More |
