arginalia: Drawings by Tiago Estrada: Rooster Gallery 4/21



MARGINALIA: DRAWINGS BY TIAGO ESTRADA
AT ROOSTER GALLERY, 190 ORCHARD STREET, LOWER EAST SIDE, NYC

OPENING RECEPTION: THURSDAY, APRIL 21, 6-9PM
EXHIBITING FROM APRIL 21 – MAY 22

Tiago Estrada (born 1967) has been living and working in New York since 1997. On view at Rooster Gallery will be drawings from the series “A Certain Writing Inclination” and “Narration Styles.”

The title “Marginalia” finds its genesis in the medieval Latin expression marginalis, or the act of hand-writing short notes in book margins. Estrada’s introspective and somehow subversive artistic process is deeply rooted in 20th century philosophy and psychiatry, and his drawings are therefore marginal from an artistic and sociological point of view.

Michel Foucault’s statement – “We are prisoners of our own language” – provides the viewer the answer to Estrada’s drawings, since he has been collecting and analyzing his own isms and “schizophrenic” doodling/writing behaviors for the past ten years.  In fact, everybody exhibits these sorts of behaviors, since language and written words have a limited nature. Just as Gilles Deleuze and FĂ©lix Guattari distanced themselves from linear thought  in their milestone oeuvre “Capitalism and Schizophrenia,” so does Estrada with his drawings by rejecting the traditional linear process in the arts.

“Marginalia: Drawings by Tiago Estrada” is, therefore, not only an exhibition but also a physiological diary about drawing repetition. The artist´s rejection of writing emphasizes the formal arrangements of handwriting itself, almost like a copyist monk, translating without knowing the original document language.

Tiago Estrada was born in Braga, Portugal, majored in painting at the School of Fine Arts of Oporto, earned an MFA in Painting at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, and is represented in MoMA Archives and in Drawing Center’s Digital Archive Online, among other collections.

Renovated Reputations is the result of an internet blogging project in which paintings and assemblages based on vintage and antique vernacular photography are the inspiration for short fiction.  The blog, which gets between one hundred to two hundred and fifty visitors a day, is the nexus point.  Each week between seven to ten authors from the U.S. and U.K. submitted short fiction of one thousand words or less compete to win an original work of art that is the basis for the story.  The stories and assemblages are then coupled with great graphic design and photo illustration to create an environment that compliment the two.
The catalog is a collaborative joint between myself, an artist with a national reputation and proven track record.  (I’m also a professor of Art and Art History at Ohlone College in Fremont where I also am the director of the Louie Meager Art Museum and the author of the text book Liaisons, Reading in Art, Philosophy and History.  The authors are a dirty dozen or so such as author professor Mark Brosamer,  pulp author Steven D. Rogers of PulpFest fame, Dreamworks animator/cartoonist Brian Newlin, columnist Gigi De Vault and others. 
The impetus for this project is based in a solo show of paintings in I am having at ArtHaus Gallery in San Francisco in April 2011.  The show is called Renovated Reputations: Paintings and Fiction inspired by Vintage Portrait Photographs. 
Each story is a unique standalone entity – combined in one volume, they’ll kill ya!

The 2011 edition of PULSE New York makes its debut in its new home at Metropolitan Pavilion from March 3-6, 2011. PULSE New York 2011 will host 62 exhibitors across two floors in a pristine, recently-renovated setting while continuing its signature series of special projects.
In recognition of the hectic New York art fair week, PULSE New York 2011 is conveniently located in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood, minutes from Union Square and all major subway lines, and will provide complimentary wireless internet access to all visitors.

Numerous mainstay exhibitors will return following triumphant showings in PULSE Miami 2010 - the first edition under recently-appointed Director Cornell DeWitt - including Mark Moore Gallery which recently relocated to Culver City and Galerie Stefan Roepke, of Cologne. International galleries making their return to PULSE New York include the venerable Singapore Tyler Print Institute (STPI), which will stage a solo booth of American artist Trenton Doyle Hancock, and Cuban gallery Habana, presenting artists Ivan Capote and Glenda Leon. PULSE New York is also proud to welcome several exciting first time exhibitors, such as Luis De Jesus Los Angeles, and Montreal's Art Mûr in the solo-artist IMPULSE section.

SELECTED SPECIAL PROJECTS
PULSE New York 2011 will also continue its series of special projects, with many deeply rooted in the New York area. Visitors to the fair will immediately enter a special pop-up bookstore created by Brooklyn's celebrated powerHouse Books, featuring selected titles published by powerHouse and others. Original installations include Molly Dilworth's site-specific painting Field Test (NYC), courtesy of David B. Smith Gallery. Field Test (NYC), is part of a series of works by Dilworth that reference electron microscopy images of rare-earth elements, a prominent example of which is her Cool Water, Hot Island, installed across several blocks of Times Square. Also on view will be Ben Wolf's Clamber, presented by New York gallery Christina Ray, in which Wolf creates a massive environment from materials he salvaged from an abandoned ship in Newark, New Jersey.
