JOHN CURRIN at Andrea Rosen Gallery June 19th - August 21st
Posted 7/19/09

I've always feared that there was a bit of invention lacking in John Currin's paintings. Strictly as a painter, he appears to have slid into that category of well-trained academics who found a niche style, but  a la Norman Rockwell, leans too heavily on the side of illustration. The dialogue on figurative painting ends too abruptly, usually with a pair of whopping nipples.  By contrast, other contemporaries like Dana Shutz and Lisa Yuskavage seem more conversant in the conceptua...

Ms. Mihelic, an agent at Stribling & Associates with a master of fine arts degree from Parsons the New School for Design, is the curator of the art show, cheekily called “spctclr vws.” http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/10/realestate/10posting.h...

After the Armory Show (and some much needed sustenance) we headed down to Pier 40 for Pulse New York. In terms of tracking down San Francisco galleries participating in the shows in New York, I hit the jackpot.   Baer Ridgeway Exhibitions was showing several local Bay Area artists, including Brion Nuda Rosch (above) and Clare Rojas (below): Work by Chris Duncan (below) was also on display: My personal heritage obliged me to stop at the Lena & Roselli Gallerybooth, apparently the only Hungarian gallery at New Yorks contemporary art fairs: The gallery...

Posted 3/11/09

      ON CERTAINTY, a group show curated by Sreshta Premnath, takes a closer look at the construction of knowledge and the meaning of representation. By what standard is something considered factual, and with what degree of certainty is information accepted as such? The works by the participating artists cause one to question this thought process and to contemplate the pervasive nature of uncertainty. Accompanied by a series of public discussions with economists, neurologists, physicists... [more]
