Lynne Eastaway: U N P A C K E D, ParisCONCRET, Paris, France
The works in this exhibition have spent much of their life in my studio drawers. Over periods of time they are pulled out and unpacked to see what dialogue I may still have and the conversation I haven’t yet had with them.

Tilman: Painted Obje(c)ts Ambigus, Galerie Linard*Langsdorff, Paris, France
Tilman, House of Colours I March 5 – April 1, 2011 At first sight we detect in Tilman’s works a language shaped and haunted by the ghosts of minimalism and concrete art. But we are soon overwhelmed by a multitude of information giving us the opportunity to read the various components of this oeuvre from a personal angle. The works emanate from a careful approach to subjects other than art-inherent; they refuse to dominate the [...]

Touch, ParisCONCRET, Paris, France
Installation view thru October 23, 2010 “I’ve chosen artists’ work that I feel share something of a fetish with/in the production/object, particularly based on an aesthetic predisposition that can run formally, culturally, adding the social/personal. How I personally interpret this is with a Tokyo sensibility, how Japanese respond to objects and their placement, their positioned sense of worth, a cuteness, an austere vs. touch. The exhibition consists of individual pieces, multiples, or artists books, which may sit on the [...]
Peter Soriano: Dimensions Variable, Federico Seve Gallery, New York, NY
Peter Soriano, Other Side #81 (AMDI), 2010 Steel Cable, aluminum pipe, and spray paint Dimensions variable September 24 – Saturday, November 6, 2010 I am drawn to that polarity between movement and stasis. I think I needed to rid myself of making forms to get closer to this situation between the spatial and the planar, the sculptural and the drawn, between the decision and the doubt. I am looking for a transparency between thought and [...]

Henri Matisse painting Bathers by a River, May 13, 1913 Photograph by Alvin Langdon Coburn Courtesy of George Eastman House, International Museum of Photography and Film, Rochester July 18 – October 11, 2010 In the time between Henri Matisse’s (1869–1954) return from Morocco in 1913 and his departure for Nice in 1917, the artist produced some of the most demanding, experimental, and enigmatic works of his career—paintings that are abstracted and rigorously purged of descriptive [...]

Work by Jesus Rafael Soto May 8 – June 19, 2010 Participating Artists: Mario Ballocco, Julije Knifer, Marco Maggi, Francois Morellet, Olivier Mosset, Jesus Rafael Soto After World War II, many artists turned to geometric abstraction as a springboard for experimentation, leaving behind figurative art. Some said that was the death of painting. I prefer thinking of it as a new start. I was first introduced to geometric abstract art when instructed by Serge Lemoine at lʼEcole du [...]

John Griefen: Recent Paintings, Gary Snyder Gallery, New York, NY
Installation view March 4 – May 1, 2010 One might think it easier to photographically reproduce a recent monochromatic painting by John Griefen than a 50’s painting by Ad Reinhardt, as the acrylic paint on a Griefen is textured and thick in contrast to Reinhardt’s matte application. But both Reinhardt and Griefen defy reproduction, and that is just one of the things they have in common. Both demand that the viewer powerfully and authentically engage [...]

C, in its reductive simplicity, aims to place the viewer “in an indeterminate, luminous space, in attentive contemplation” experiencing the light and space of symbolic carbon. With this project Bergman references Agnes Martin’s “To the [...]

Daniel Buren: Modulation, Works in situ, Neues Museum/State Museum for Art and Design, Nuremberg, Germany
Installation view October 16, 2009 – February 14, 2010 The French-born international artist Daniel Buren is considered one of the fiercest critics of contemporary art. It is particularly towards the museum, its circumstances and conditions, that he likes to turn his critical attention. For the “museum is the place, with regard to which and for which works are created.” For well over forty years Buren has applied his mischievous intuition to develop works that directly [...]
