Chris Burden: Hobby Shop
at Shin Gallery
New York, NY, USA
May 03, 2017 - Jun 18, 2017

Chris Burden: Hobby Shop at Shin Gallery Shin Gallery is pleased to present Chris Burden: Hobby Shop, an exhibition featuring sculptures and drawings by American conceptual artist, Chris Burden. The son of an engineer, Burden’s fascination with the craft of building and construction grew beyond his early childhood years into his post-performative works; this highlighting a dichotomy between his childhood hobbies of constructing Lego models, to that of re-creating architectural kits as a professional artist later on in his adulthood. Burden was able to extend his child-like curiosity into his art making, bringing with him an appreciation for high risks, as well as a strong desire for a sense of innocence so many artists hope to prevail when they enter a new state of mind. read more...

Jayson Musson: Demon All Day
at Salon 94 Freemans
Lower East Side - New York, NY, USA
May 06, 2017 - Jun 17, 2017

Jayson Musson: Demon All Day at Salon 94 Freemans For his third show at Salon 94, Jayson Musson has returned to his roots; drawing. The canny art world chameleon is a master of forms, ranging from antic videos to “paintings” made of dissected Coogi sweaters, to an installation based on the art-historical satire of Ernie Bushmiller’s Nancy comic strip. Musson himself is something of a cult figure, thanks to his YouTube persona as Hennessy Youngman, deadpan star of the artist’s 2010-2012 art tutorial series, “Art Thoughtz,” which cleverly satirized both art history and the contemporary art world. read more...

 


Katharina Fritsch: Multiples
at Walker Art Center
Minneapolis, MN, USA
May 11, 2017 - Oct 15, 2017

Katharina Fritsch: Multiples at Walker Art Center Celebrated as one of the most innovative sculptors of our time, Katharina Fritsch (German, b. 1956) mines the history, myths, and fairy tales of Germany as well as her own thoughts and dreams to explore the nature of human perception and experience. By using everyday objects as subject matter—small animals, body parts, religious figurines, and other elements from the made and natural worlds—and altering them through unexpected shifts in scale, color, and materials, Fritsch evokes a sense of wonder and blurs the boundaries between the ordinary and the deeply symbolic. Katharina Fritsch: Multiples spans the artist’s career, from early examples from her student years at the Düsseldorf Kunstakademie to later pieces, providing a look into her long-standing themes and ideas through some 40 works drawn from the Walker’s collection. read more...

Urban Planning: Contemporary Art and the City 1967鈥2017 at Contemporary Art Museum of St. Louis This exhibition explores how contemporary artists consider the changing postwar urban landscape, beginning with the rapid development of the highway system in the mid-twentieth century and moving through industrialization’s continuing decline. Featuring work in a range of media by more than twenty international artists, including Catherine Opie, Ed Ruscha, Glenn Ligon, Josiah McElheny, Zoe Leonard, Mark Bradford, and Agnes Denes, Urban Planning: Contemporary Art and the City 1967–2017 treats the American urban landscape as a point of departure for a broader rumination on issues of identity, class, violence, health, economy, and opportunity. Keeping its focus to North America, the exhibition acknowledges and problematizes the various factors that have resulted in the irrevocable transformation of cities while also highlighting how such conditions continue to offer some of the most fertile gro read more...

at Kunsthaus Bregenz
Bregenz, Austria
May 06, 2017 - Aug 27, 2017

Adri谩n Villar Rojas at Kunsthaus Bregenz They are monsters stiffened in rigor mortis. That is the colossally scaled sculptures, such as a 28 meter whale of almost unimaginable mass sited in a forest in Patagonia, for which the Argentinian artist Adrián Villar Rojas (*1980, Rosario, Argentina) has become well- known. Leaves falling from trees in the harsh autumn weather have transformed the sculpture into a soft russet color. read more...

This show affords an intimate and focused look at Lee’s rarely seen works derived from paper and stones created in the 1970s and early 1980s, offering new insights into an oeuvre defined by its elegant and unconventional approach to the lyricism and malleability of form.
