avadMr.B and I went in to see the art fairs in NYC...there were 5 all together(!) but we decided we would only take in 2 at a slower more reasonable pace. I had some of my works at Red Dot with Morgan Lehman so we went there first.
Right off the bat we saw new works by Linda Ganjian, whose obsessive polymer works I went crazy over at Aqua Miami...these were even More dessert-like so I was in heaven. look: microcosm Delicacies!!.
I actually never got to see these at the fair (must've been a crowded small room that I avoided?) but so glad to find the pic on flickr because I love them: porcelain 'ghosts' much like matrioshka with asian and video game imagery patterning...
This photograph by Kelli Connell slowed me down in a good way in the hall...the atmosphere..and quiet confrontation of self….breathing space…
We went off to scope next...my favorite piece there was a
wall installation by Cat Clifford at Howard House, Seattle. The title/text alone moved me...but each piece was so subtle and detailed in texture..fragile carved paper miniature sculptures and delicate carved drawings...bits of 3d (wish you could see...the picture just doesn't convey)..and then you realize that all the smaller pieces were made into an animation in the center...so charming...I wanted to stay in that world...
Another modern take on asian porcelain knocked out socks off there too: Ma Jun's porcelain television at Regis Krampf Gallery (NY). check out the backside too. again, you're missing the exquisitely detailed surface...exactly as an antique crackled vase would be...perfectly done and sensual.
Yossi Milo Gallery had great photography, more of Kelli Connell's and then many of Loretta Lux’s photographs which have such an odd haunting quality...
I also loved and lingered at the photographs by Bert Teunissen at Artspace Witzenhausen...his Domestic Landscape series is just the sort of grouping I love to enter into...taking in the details of interiors and lives around the world...journey through the others on his site if you have the time...
Of course there was much much more that was noteworthy at both fairs...but these I had jotted down in my bookjournal while taking them in..and I thought I'd share them with you and get them hotlinked in here for bookmarking. I may add more when I have time.
fun but really late dinner with vitamin V and Krupa and friends at a crazy japanese place @ st.marks...good talk with Susan about economics and game theory/cooperation (yes!)...hoping to continue that conversation...
