Joe Bradley: Krasdale
at Gagosian Gallery, New York (980 Madison Avenue)
Upper East Side - New York, NY, USA
Apr 02, 2016 - May 03, 2016

With painting, I always get the impression that you're sort of entering into a shared space. There's everyone who has painted in the past, and everyone who is painting in the present. read more...

A Portrait of Antinous, in Two Parts
at The Art Institute of Chicago
Loop - Chicago, IL, USA
Apr 02, 2016 - Aug 28, 2016

An exceptionally beautiful Greek youth, Antinous was a favorite of Roman Emperor Hadrian. Following the young man’s mysterious death by drowning in the Nile River, Antinous was proclaimed a god, and portraits of him appeared across the Roman Empire This focused exhibition unites two marbles portraying Antinous—which recent discoveries reveal were originally one. After years of careful study, an international collaboration among the Art Institute of Chicago, the Palazzo Altemps Museum in Rome, and the University of Chicago determined that the Art Institute’s fragment of a portrait of Antinous was originally the face of the Altemps’s bust. read more...

In Siebren Versteeg’s LIKE II (2016), a computer painting program creates a composition using a continuously changing algorithm, and then runs a periodic Google search to find a matching image online. Every sixty seconds, the painting made by the computer is uploaded to Google’s “search by image” feature, and images that most closely match the composition are then downloaded and displayed. The notion of abstraction plays a central role in this work. read more...

Hales Gallery is pleased to announce Worship, a solo exhibition of new works by Thomas J Price. This will be the artist's third solo exhibition with the gallery. Price's work across media, encompassing sculpture, film and photography, is engaged with issues of representation and perception, in society and in art. Since 2005, he has been creating figurative sculptures which function as psychological portraits of his imagined subjects – usually male, usually black – whose features are in fact an amalgamation of sources: observed individuals, 'types' represented in the media, and ancient, classical and neo-classical sculptures. read more...

Milan, Italy
Apr 01, 2016 - May 07, 2016

Riccardo Crespi gallery presents the third solo show by the south Korean artist Shin il Kim, Observing That Gap. Starting out from a reflection on the state of passivity, of numbness of the senses, that in many ways characterizes our daily life, Shin Il Kim seeks to reawaken an active condition, to stimulate us to look at the world in a more conscious and participatory way, recovering the influence of Buddhist philosophy, particularly on the practice of analytical meditation.
