at Jack Shainman Gallery
Chelsea - New York, NY, USA
Nov 22, 13 - Jan 11, 14

Susana Solano: A Meitat De Cami-Halfway There at Jack Shainman GallerySusana Solano’s creative structure has taken shape all throughout her career like one of the metallic meshes that are a constant feature of her works. It has shaped a map of communicating vessels in which material, space, senses and life experience make up a fluid continuum. Susana Solano’s works, regardless of the materials used and their size, correspond to an underlying idea of witnessing existence through its materialization as a memory of her emotional relationships with spaces, shapes and people. read more...

Revolution to Romanticism: Freedom of Expression in 19th Century European Painting
at The Bowers Museum of Cultural Art
Santa Ana, CA, USA
Nov 23, 13 - Mar 23, 14

Revolution to Romanticism: Freedom of Expression in 19th Century European Painting at The Bowers Museum of Cultural Art Romanticism emerged as a response to the fear and promise of the American and French Revolutions, the rigidity of the Enlightenment, and the alienation that grew out of the Industrial Revolution. Romantic artists broke free from the constraints of the state-run art academies and embraced a world that celebrated creativity and individuality. Fascinated by the exotic, artists traveled to distant lands; intrigued by the past, they journeyed back in time; and in search of the sublime, they reveled in the majesty of nature. read more...

Alex Prager: Face in the Crowd at Corcoran Gallery of Art For ten years, Los Angeles artist Alex Prager has staged imaginary scenes for her camera—dream worlds in Technicolor, rife with tension and melodramatic fictions. Deftly blending archetypes from post-war America, her images have re-enacted and burlesqued media portrayals of women, drawing from classic Hollywood movies, fashion advertising, and icons of documentary photography. Face in the Crowd, Prager’s first solo museum show in the United States, presents her latest body of work by the same title. read more...

Stan Douglas | Disco Angola at Victoria Miro GalleryVictoria Miro Mayfair is delighted to present Disco Angola by Stan Douglas, the artist's second solo show with Victoria Miro and his first at our new Mayfair gallery.

Jason Martin: Painting as Sculpture
at Lisson Gallery, Milan
Milan, Italy
Nov 22, 13 - Jan 10, 14

Jason Martin: Painting as Sculpture at Lisson Gallery, Milan For his sixth solo show with Lisson Gallery, British artist Jason Martin presents a new series of cast copper and nickel works. Trained as a painter in oil and acrylic, Martin began manipulating his chosen material in the early 1990s, dragging, scraping, combing, raking and squeegeeing paint across the surfaces of his canvases and aluminium panels until their edges bled colour and the surfaces picked up textures, gestures and happenstance along the way. This performative process has been complicated in this latest set of cast works, available exclusively through Lisson Gallery, in which thick impasto marks made from brusque, almost baroque sweeps of hand-sculpted material have been solidified into metal in the manner of traditional bronze sculptures or statues. read more...
