Tina Braegger: The Dream Relatives
Meredith Rosen Gallery is pleased to present The Dream Relatives, a solo exhibition of new paintings by Tina Braegger. The exhibition opens on November 5 and will remain on view through December 20 at 327 West 36th Street.
For nearly a decade, Tina Braegger has used the Grateful Dead 鈥渄ancing bear鈥 as a vessel for painterly innovations, questioning notions of authorship, originality and authenticity. In Braegger鈥檚 paintings, the capacity of this motif is pushed as repetition becomes a space of transmutation. The bears transform into text bubbles and paint palettes in this new body of work. The container for language and the tool become characters in and of themselves鈥攁t times eclipsing the bear motif completely. Alongside the exhibition, a new collection of Bragger鈥檚 writing titled 鈥淐hess Poems鈥 will be released and on view as a printed booklet.
