ROTRIXAGATZE
at On Stellar Rays
Lower East Side - New York, NY, USA
Jan 11, 15 - Feb 14, 15

The onset of catastrophe is not signaled by the sense of everything falling through the dark and ending in accidental death: everything, including a catastrophe, has a moment-by-moment structure, a structure that is beyond measurement or comprehension, that is maddeningly complex or must be conceived in quite another manner, one in which the degree of complexity can be articulated only in terms of images that seem impossible to conjure since time has slowed down to the point that the world has become indifferent to circumstances and various terrible preconditions have arrived at a perfect universal conclusion, that being because they are composed of intentions, because the moment is the result of unconscious choices, because a key doesn’t immediately fit into the ignition, because we do not start in third gear then move down to second but because we start in second and move into third as we move down the hill then turn onto a highway above the vil read more...

Gisela Colon: Pods
at Ace Gallery, Beverly Hills
Beverly Hills, CA, USA
Jan 10, 15 - Feb 28, 15

The work of Los Angeles-based Gisela Colón has been associated with California Minimalism, specifically the Light & Space and Finish/Fetish movements more broadly referred to as “Perceptualism.” Colón’s sculptures investigate the properties of light in solid form and luminescent color through the use of industrial plastic materials. The Glo-Pods body of work, meticulously created through a proprietary fabrication process of blow-molding and layering acrylic, mark Colon as part of the next generation of southern California artists using light as exploratory media. read more...

Jan 16, 15 - Mar 01, 15

In January 2015, Pearl Lam Galleries will present its first solo exhibition of Australian artist Ben Quilty’s work, Straight White Male, opening its 2015 programme with one of the hottest contemporary artists of the moment. The exhibition sees a return for the artist to the most traditional forms of art, painting landscapes and portraits, which furthers Quilty’s continued exploration of Australian initiation ceremonies and forms of masculinity.
