Art on Color
On view June 5 through September 13, 2014 at Gemini G.E.L. at Joni Moisant Weyl, ART ON COLOR is an exhibition that turns the average art presentation on its ear. The gallery has called on architects Peter
Stamberg and Paul Aferiat, partners of the Manhattan firm Stamberg Aferiat + Associates, to design an create something, if not revolutionary, certainly unusual in the realm of contemporary galleries: artworks,
drawn from the Gemini G.E.L. archive, installed on walls painted in dramatic colors. Architects of the Gemini at Joni Weyl gallery, Stamberg Aferiat + Associates have received accolades for
their Shelter Island Pavilion and their vibrant redux of The Saguaro hotels in Palm Springs and Scottsdale. Besides architectural finesse, these structures highlight an unusual and highly effective use of bold color,
without overpowering the architecture. Some of the artists SA+A have chosen for the Art on Color exhibition include John Baldessari, Ann Hamilton, David Hockney, Ellsworth Kelly, Roy Lichtenstein, Man Ray, Brice Marden, Robert Rauschenberg, James Rosenquist and Joel Shapiro. The palette for the walls is a range of oranges, yellows and greens. 鈥淭he colors we are using are colors when in proximity to one another help to create light. The rooms will feel buoyant with the art,鈥� said Aferiat. 鈥淏ut,鈥� added Stamberg, 鈥渨e reserved one wall for white. It鈥檚 always important to know where to start and where to stop with color.鈥�
