10 Exhibitions Opening This Week


Sharon Lawless: Slightly Ajar
at Robert Henry Contemporary
Brooklyn, NY, USA
Apr 24, 15 - May 31, 15

Sharon Lawless: Slightly Ajar at Robert Henry Contemporary In Slightly Ajar, her second exhibition with the gallery, Sharon Lawless continues to use found materials — discarded packaging, paint samples, wrapping paper and altered pages from auction catalogs — in her manipulation of two modern traditions, collage and geometric abstraction as she explores the tension between accident and control and how this tension effects perception. In contrast to the undetermined spaces in earlier work, that had more to do with and awareness of time than of space, the 10 collages in this exhibition exist in a space that is more disorienting than ambiguous, defined by multiple perspectives and continuity errors. read more...

Josef Strau
at Wiener Secession
Vienna, Austria
Apr 24, 15 - Jun 21, 15

Josef Strau at Wiener Secession Josef Strau’s experimental artistic practice is anchored in the written word. In his installations, he contrasts fairly restrained architectural structures with often large quantities of text. Recurring formats for his linkages between text and object are pamphlets on lamps from flea markets, illuminated manuscripts, and printed and handwritten texts on posters and canvases. The texts themselves are marked by a typographical play with text and gaps as well as by Strau's specific style of writing, which nimbly and playfully tracks his stream of consciousness. read more...

In Karlsruhe, three projects reflect on three historical sites: the autodidact Ferdinand Cheval’s Palais idéal, the architect Paolo Soleri’s experimental city Arcosanti, and the philosopher Giulio Camillo’s theater of memory. In his works, Aurélien Froment investigates the reception, montage, and experience of images and the spaces in which they exist, creating documents and exhibitions drawn from sources whose heterogeneity characterizes his practice. read more...

looping loopholes
at Yeo Workshop
Singapore, Singapore
Apr 24, 15 - Jun 15, 15

looping loopholes at Yeo Workshop Language in all its shapes and forms is what gives us body. We whisper, we yell, we argue, we declare, we state this and that. We listen, we pretend to listen. We look, gaze, stare. We are seen-not-seen. We try to understand. We don’t understand, no, not at all. We paint in lush brush strokes. read more...
