Mirror Cells
at Whitney Museum of American Art
New York, NY, USA
May 13, 2016 - Aug 21,
2016

Mirror Cells at Whitney Museum of American Art This exhibition brings together artists Liz Craft, Rochelle Goldberg, Elizabeth Jaeger, Maggie Lee, and Win McCarthy, who often conceive of interconnected works that suggest strange invented worlds. While each artist creates discrete objects, these works act in direct dialogue with one another—at times alluding to furniture or other functional items—in order to generate a broader context that extends beyond their individual physical forms. They often make use of humble materials such as wood, resin, and ceramic clay, putting a renewed emphasis on the act of making and materiality. read more...

Lucio Fontana, Caroline Achaintre, Ivan Seal: A Conversation about Ceramics
at Monica De Cardenas, Milan
Milan, Italy
May
12, 2016 - Jul 29, 2016

Lucio Fontana, Caroline Achaintre, Ivan Seal: A Conversation about Ceramics at Monica De Cardenas, Milan The exhibition triggers a dialogue between ceramics by Lucio Fontana and the works by two contemporary artists, who with different media show how this ancient material has become a surprising vehicle for new experimentation. According to the Bible, God used clay to create Man in his image and likeness. In Jewish mythology, Man in turn shaped the Golem, to whom he managed to give the breath of life, but not a character of his own, since he lived only to follow the orders of his maker: a powerful metaphor for the possibilities of this primordial substance. read more...

This contemporary Annunciation explores the nature of miracles and the possibilities of perception and knowledge. read more...

 


Omar Barquet: Syllables
at Arróniz Arte Contemporáneo
Roma - Mexico City, Mexico
May 12,
2016 - Jun 25, 2016

Omar Barquet: Syllables at Arróniz Arte Contemporáneo Syllables is an interdisciplinary show inspired on the 5th melisma for Gunther Gerzso written by Mexican poet Francisco Hernández; conducted by Omar Barquet and integrated as the 6th movement of the Ghost Variations project. Ghost Variations is an interdisciplinary proposal launched in 2012, composed of a sequence of six projects organized similarly to the movements of a symphony, and as a series of six experimental collaborations understood as fugues. Together they pose an analogy to the disctint evolutionary phases of a hurricane, emulating its intensity and movements, like the sketch of a spiral shape, mainly reflecting on the perception of time and life through the transformation cycles of a landscape and the chaotic nature of our thoughts, depicting a pulse wich changes in intensity, and thus, the estate of things. read more...
