The Promise of Something and Nothing
at Sonce Alexander Gallery
Los Angeles, CA, USA
Aug 01, 2015 - Aug 30, 2015

The ephemeral as archivable (material or process) reveals physicality, authority and locality – manifesting as indexable with constructed permanence. Hierarchies of temporality, fashioned by aesthetic considerations, when valued within a common architecture commence an Archive: a topography produced through reframing but also regeneration. The Promise of Something and Nothing is constructed under the commandment of a curatorial agenda, involving from the outset practitioners that navigate archive production through image production. read more...

Peter Skvara: Approaches

West Loop - Chicago, IL, USA

Andrew Rafacz concludes summer 2015 with Approaches, a solo exhibition of new paintings and installation by Peter Skvara. The exhibition continues through Saturday, September 5, 2015.

(Un)Real
at David Richard Gallery
Santa Fe, NM, USA
Jul 31, 2015 - Sep 26, 2015

The artists presented here – Michele Bubacco, Angela Fraleigh, David Humphrey, Martin Mull, Claire Sherman – all take the world around us as a point of departure, subjecting these observations to an inner rigor that leads down different paths and to unexpected surprises. This exhibition undertakes the challenge to chart this divergence and to find commonality amongst some very interesting and disparate painters. read more...

Fantasy of Representation
at Beers Contemporary
London, UK
Jul 31, 2015 - Sep 19, 2015

It may seem paradoxical, perhaps, that an exhibition based on the wonderment of representational painting should lead with a quote by Josef Albers - one of the most regarded and unforgiving modernists of the 20th century. However Albers, as educator, theorist, stylist, and technician, has had some of the most profound effects on the world of contemporary painting, as any other leading artist. In some instances, his breakthroughs in colour-theory, and his insistence on the importance of the eye and the subsequent cognitive processes (as it relates to our understanding of art), can be read across discipline, media, or intent. read more...

Richard Long: TIME AND SPACE
at Arnolfini
Bristol, UK
Jul 31, 2015 - Nov 15, 2015

TIME AND SPACE is a new exhibition by Richard Long. Part of the programme celebrating Bristol’s year as European Green Capital, the project looks particularly at the area where Long grew up and still lives, as the start and end point for many of his early walks and text works. The exhibition focuses on the artists’ personal relationship to place and local materials, and how the ideas and language developed through his early career were key in the development of ideas that the artist now realises across the world. read more...

kennardphillipps: Here Comes Everybody
at Stills
Edinburgh, UK
Jul 31, 2015 - Oct 24, 2015

Here Comes Everybody is an exhibition of work by kennardphillipps, the collaborative practice of London-based artists Peter Kennard and Cat Phillipps. It will consist of a large accumulation of photographic imagery, comprised of photomontage, digital prints and found newspapers, as well as a major new installation exploring ideas around image consumption, production and camera surveillance. Through the creation of a ‘cauldron’ of material, the artists will highlight what they describe as the ‘cause and effect’ of a range of global issues such as financial austerity, climate change, disease and war. read more...

Günther Förg: Wall Painting
at Deichtorhallen
Hamburg, Germany
Jul 31, 2015 - Oct 25, 2015

Günther Förg’s (1952–2013) wall paintings are one of the central aspects of his entire oeuvre. They opened up a new variety of possibilities for him to present his works when combined with photography and painting, and they were always intended to clarify space and lend rhythm to its internal structure. Over the course of his life he created some 140 wall paintings. read more...
