Yuki Kimura

Yuki Kimura Work from her oeuvre. “Gluck50 is pleased to present the first solo exhibition in Italy of works by the Japanese artist Yuki Kimura. Yuki Kimura’s artistic practice is based on the medium of photography. She uses both her own and found images which she reassembles in different contexts, giving them new meaning. The […]

Mitsuko Miwa

Mitsuko Miwa Works from Rendition at Longhouse Projects. “Rendition focuses on multiplicity within the medium of painting. In one body of work, Miwa offers seemingly typical “abstract paintings”—bands of color that are derived from stacks of nameless books, providing a pictorial dilemma, in which the viewer is asked to read but cannot. In another body […]

William Betts

William Betts Work from his oeuvre. “The works of William Betts operate less like paintings and more like moments captured in time. Featured in editions #60, #72, and #84 of New American Paintings, Betts uses video stills and technological applications to inform his compositions, where some works are both a reproduction and an original, stretching […]

Cynthia Daignault

Cynthia Daignault Work from her oeuvre. “…Daignault’s paintings, or visual tautologies, are rendered in a not-quite photo-realistic manner – akin to that of, say, Vija Celmins or Luc Tuymans. They include depictions of analogue and digital projection equipment (e.g. slide projectors, overhead projectors, video projectors, etc.) that are paired with painted representations of their projected […]

Stefano Calligaro

Stefano Calligaro Work from his oeuvre. “The nature of Stefano Calligaro’s practice can be seen as a minimal intent to describe the construction of an artwork through layers of gestures as collecting displacing and remodeling materials, images and meanings. The works and their subtle presence in the space are tracing a constellation of references in constant […]

Christopher Williams

Christopher Williams Work from his oeuvre. Below is an excerpt from the narrative/stream of conciseness press release from Williams’ show at Galeria Gisela Capitain. Read it. “…Williams prefers to distance himself from the gestures typically associated with professional photographers, relocating his practice across a complex series of citations and diversions of modern photographic knowledge. Every camera predicts its user, who is already […]

Haris Epaminoda

Haris Epaminoda Work from his oeuvre. “…deceptively intimate works of Epaminonda: collages, escoriating and beautiful. They collectively form a kind of liminal space through the imagery of a past – the mid 20th Century – yet they don’t address a period in time, perhaps so that it might be the past, again. They are composed […]

Emilie Halpern

Emilie Halpern Work from her oeuvre. Artist’s talk at Otis College here. “Emilie Halpern trades on dissonance and contradiction. Working in a mix of mediums, from sculpture to photography, conceptualism to found object installation, she looks for ideas and images that play against each other in surprising ways. Through juxtapositions and combinations of these ideas, […]

Marlo Pascual

Marlo Pascual Work from her oeuvre. “I’m creating a relationship between the artwork, the art space, and the viewer by employing visual and audible devices. In recent sculptures I’ve juxtaposed found photographs and objects with various light sources to create a mise-en-scene for them to play out in. The unknown actors and actress in the […]

Daniel Gordon

Daniel Gordon Work from Portrait Studio. “Brad Phillips – Hi Danny. Daniel? You just opened a show at Groeflin Maag Galerie in Zurich. I know you usually take a while to work on a single body of work – so what’s this body of work about? Daniel Gordon – Hey Brad. Yeah Danny is okay. […]
