GEOslant with Himali Singh Soin: "Come as you are, Leave as you will be": In Memory of Georgia Fee  
by
Posted 1/4/13

I once imagined what it would be like to disappear. From the earth, society, my self. To be a hole. And what it would be like to exist so completely, that I could be omnipresent, on earth, in society, to my self. Whole. And it was with Georgia that I experienced this.   We went, along with Jim Benn, a fellow ArtSlant writer, to see Yayoi Kusama's retrospective at the Pompidou while I was visiting Paris, but we didn't know what we were getting ourselves into. We had no idea that we would swim... [more]

GEOslant Around the World: Georgia Fee's Legacy in Writing  
by
Posted 12/21/12

Many of you dedicated ArtSlant readers may remember that from the start, the GeoSlant blog was editor-in-chief and ArtSlant founder Georgia Fee’s own blog. Each week she posted travelogues, helpful tips and how-to’s, all written with her particular brand of wit and verve. Perusing the earliest entries in the GeoSlant blog from 2007-09, you get a glimpse of how ArtSlant grew, changed, and developed, how new features were added and with how much fanfare. Not only that, but reading these entries also gives you a glimpse of who Georgia was, and how she saw the... [more]

PERHAPS PARIS by James Thompson Listen, there is no way around it. In the article that follows I'm going to be forced to wield sweeping generalisations, peddle the occasional stereotype, and generally piss off the people of my adopted home. However. It needs to be done. It's like one of those difficult talks that normally take place in the kitchen and are basically painful for one party. Home truths might be what we are dealing with here. I would also like to say that this is... [more]

A PARIS DERIVE: hors les murs at FIAC by Natalie Hegert There are a couple of ways to approach art fairs: one could subscribe to a strict itinerary of events, talks, exhibitions, and parties, planning out every moment in an attempt to experience as much, meet as many people, drink as many free drinks and see as much art as possible during that relatively brief moment in a city when every art space, gallery, and arts organization seems to go into hyperdrive. Or, one could simp... [more]

Brainbow II Les neurones ont ceci d'extraordinaire que leur activité est tout à la fois foncièrement indispensable et totalement hors de portée de nos sens. Rendues visibles par le système d'imagerie Brainbow, les connexions neuronales apparaissent alors comme les pixels constitutifs d'une image, points de couleur que seuls l'accumulation et l'éloignement du regard permettront de transformer en un tout cohérent. Associés le temps d'une exposition, les artistes suivants proposent la mise e... [more]

20120410121218-17--4812 Unconvincing Conceptual Approach  
by
Guido Albi Marini at Maison Européenne de la Photographie April 4th, 2012 - June 17th, 2012
Posted 4/29/12

The photos aren't a disaster like some of the other work that shows up in this museum but I must say the artist's statement is totally incoherent and seems to have little to do with the work being show.  I would say that the work looks a bit weak with the low resolution digital images but in spite of that there is a certain aesthetic interest in the work.  Only it seems the artist is actually pushing more for a conceptual statement--which is so confused in relation to the text that I really do...

by
Paolo Pellegrin at Maison Européenne de la Photographie April 4th, 2012 - June 17th, 2012
Posted 4/29/12

What a relief after so many disappointments at the MEP to see a show of such a strong artist.  Pellegrin is the real thing.  If you're in Paris before June 17, be sure to make a point to visit the MEP in the Marais.  A thorough investigation of this Magnum photographer who continues to win journalism prizes left and right--and all merited.  Whether he works with film or switches to digital, the work is equally strong in his mastery of the graphic and compositional elements as well as his wo...

by
Dominique Issermann at Maison Européenne de la Photographie January 18th, 2012 - May 6th, 2012
Posted 4/29/12

One can't argue with the beauty of Laetitia Casta or the obvious technical skills of Dominique Issermann.  There are many beautiful images in the current MEP exhibit.  Undoubtedly, this has been a big draw for the museum, bringing in people who are perhaps only marginally interested in photography.  I understand the gallery does need revenues to run and a popular show like this one hopefully allows the gallery to show other artists that are more interesting but whose work is less able to draw in...

yet again scott lowenbaum has given us a powerful show so full of color and space shifting it pleases all viewers   The work is great I spent 4 hours and had to keep going back through the gallery. lowenbaum has moved away from his siganature roosters they are still here just in smaller doses .  the new works have the color, texture, the blur between real and imaginary space, it's all there just like his masterpieces of 2005 .  What I love most about his work is that it does not take it...

by
JOHN CONLEY at Speos Galerie May 18th, 2011 - May 23rd, 2011
Posted 7/14/11

These images, created within the more-or-less defined constraints of fashion photography, posses a latent energy which evokes potential, imminence, a sense that something is about to happen. Hope, anticipation, impatience or dread … No human experience contains more kinetic promise than the moment of stillness which preceeds transformation. These instants, and the expressions which accompany them, are more interesting and beautiful to me than any physical attribute could ever aspire to be. St... [more]
