Gregory Lind Gallery

Gregory Lind Gallery will present new work by Christian Maychack, whose sculptural pieces challenge the normative relationships between object, pictorial space, and spectator. Maychack’s most recent body of work—both wall and large-scale floor pieces—is assembled from pigmented and marbleized Magic-Sculpt, combined with woven wood and caning. Using these materials to create objects that hover between sculpture and painting, Maychack’s work explores the distinction between the two, as boundaries dissolve and objects seem to decay

Christian Maychack was born in upstate New York and lives and works in Brooklyn, NY. He obtained his MFA from San Francisco State University. His most-recent exhibitions include, Jeff Bailey Gallery, New York, NY, the California Biennial, Orange County Museum of Art, Newport Beach, CA, and Grimm Rosenfeld Gallery, Munich, Germany. Distinctions include a Residency at Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture (2008), Residency at the Headlands Center for the Arts, Sausalito, CA (2006), as well as a Residency at the Sirius Art Center, Cobh, Ireland (2005). His work has been featured in Artforum, Art in America, ArtNews, Sculpture Magazine, Art Ltd, Artweek, San Francisco Chronicle, and San Francisco Bay Guardian. This is the artist’s third solo show at Gregory Lind Gallery.
