Florian Maier-Aichen
if you happen to be in belgium check out florian maier-aichen at baronian francey.....
"Revisiting the American West in Der Spaziergang (Red, White and Blue), 2011, Maier-Aichen borrows the desert landscapes of cartoon animator and director Chuck Jones to fully engage the spiraling relationship between painting and photography. Using transparent cels, acrylic and watercolor, the constructed scene is finally registered to film on a copy stand. The marriage of techniques, unique to traditional animation, is offset by the pronounced minimalist imagery of the circular form. Similarly, the painted triangular peaks of Österjön II, 2011, rising out of the dark waters like an iceberg or the last portion of a fatally wounded hull, are suspended in an interchange of form and meaning. In Ennis House, 2011, the artist's drawn symbols gain playful buoyancy as balloons, or props liberated from a nearby film shoot. As their seemingly random orientation plots our gaze onto the Frank Lloyd Wright landmark, eclipsing Hollywood's hallmarks, we are reminded most of the artist's hand." full statement here

Ryan Foerster in a Group Show at Laurel Gitlen Gallery
My friend Ryan Foerster is a part of a group show at Laurel Gitlen Gallery Septermber 14 - October 23rd 2011.
Jessica Jackson Hutchins
Ryan Foerster is showing new photographs in a group show along with artists Jessica Jackson Hutchins, who is showing amazing ceramic sculptures, and Chadwick Rantanen who is showing radical drawings.
A little blip on Ryan Foerster:
"Ryan Foerster's practice combines photographs, zines and found objects, all taken from the artist's own experience and immediate surroundings. Many images begin as biographical or narrative, but through abstractions from available light become atmospheric compositions, blurring the line between action and accident. Coupled with residual images and errors from a shared darkroom, the works obscure private and public, as representational and abstract images are combined with the readymade."
Adam Marnie at Derek Eller Gallery
My friend Adam Marnie has a solo show at Derek Eller Gallery Septermber 9 - October 8 2011.
Adam Marnie, No Title / October Bouquet (twice split), 2010, color photographs, scotch tape, 6.25 x 6 inches. Photo: Courtesy Derek Eller Gallery."Marnie envisions Locus Rubric as a series of movements,
interrelated but distinct. In a process he describes as “remixing,” he collages photographs directly onto
the gallery wall then cuts out a sections of collaged wall, and either frames the removal or
reinserts it elsewhere in the gallery. In another movement,
he cuts through his framed photo collages and into the wall creating a continuous
hole/wound/void that opens into the dark space behind the walls. This in and out, this merging of exteriority and
interiority through rupture generates dynamic irregularities and emphasizes
the corporeal vulnerability of his materials and the images
(often flowers) he represents. He writes, "As an unbroken
image, it is incomplete––a disturbance, a distortion, a fissure of some kind is crucial
to open up the image into an activated space." Marnie's cutting, removing, remixing, and reinventing synergizes into a "volumetric hum" that resists categorization and the quiescence of resolution."

MSG - Opening Ceremony - New Age///\\\New Life - Back Yard Projects
My Friend Morgan Silver Greenberg just had a show at Back Yard Projects called New Age///\\\New Life.
Opening Ceremony did a nice interview with him written by Elizabeth Hirsch.
Check it out....
I remember seeing Morgan's photographs four or five years ago, that he had been casually taking with a small point & shoot camera. They were dreamy, magical, sensitive, thoughtful, and graphically inclined images from his adventures alone and with friends. I encouraged him at the time to show the work to people and pursue his ideas more in depth. Morgan is incredibly intuitive, his creativiity is magnificently abundant, and his humility and openness really shows through in his work. Congratulations Morgan!

Cover of Queer Spirits by AA Bronson and Peter Hobbs
"From 2008 to 2010 Bronson and Hobbs brought together small groups of men—in Banff, New Orleans, Winnipeg, Manhattan, and Fire Island—in a secret group ritual that was different every time and yet always the same....This book explores each site in five chapters of photographic images, primarily by AA Bronson, together with a brilliant and often humorous reflection on queer animals, forest rangers, shamanism, and park sex by Peter Hobbs."
