C24 Gallery through May 4th Online Discussion with Eleen Lin, Luchia Meihua Lee and Samuel Otter

Mythodical:  An Online Discussion with Eleen Lin, Luchia Meihua Lee and Samuel Otter

(L to R) Eleen Lin, Luchia Meihua Lee, Samuel Otter

In our current exhibition, Mythodical, on view at C24 Gallery through May 4th, paintings by Eleen Lin are paired with ceramic sculptural work by Tammie Rubin, bringing to life an assortment of takes on the related themes of mythology, communication, spirituality, mysticism, consumer culture, and the long journeys taken by immigrants, seekers, and explorers of truth, everywhere. To gain a closer look at the thorough process of these two accomplished artists, we’re planning a series of two Saturday afternoon, online panel discussions, on April 23rd and April 30th, both at 12:00pm EST.

Eleen Lin, Phantom of Life, 2019, Oil and acrylic on canvas, 48 x 72in. (122 x 183cm)

The first discussion, on April 23rd will be devoted to the work of Eleen Lin, whose paintings investigate seemingly endless nuances and associations inspired by a series of mistranslations from English into Mandarin of Herman Melville’s epic novel, Moby Dick. These works are part of Lin’s larger series, Mythopoeia, that she has been working on for the past eight years. The paintings are rich, colorful, surreal compositions of recognizable elements from the novel’s narrative, combined with mythological references and allusions to historical and current events, cultural artifacts, and global politics.

To deepen the discussion of Lin's paintings, we are bringing together two distinguished panelists, whose depth of experience will focus on two major aspects of Lin’s work. Samuel Otter is a Professor of English at the University of California at Berkeley, and a noted Melville scholar. He will bring to the conversation a more in-depth analysis of the literary aspects of Eleen’s work. Luchia Meihua Lee is the Executive Director/Curator of the Taiwanese American Arts Council. She'll be discussing the work from a cultural, political and spiritual perspective, based on her work with many Taiwanese American artists, as well as her extensive research in the area of Taoist philosophy. The panel will be co-moderated by C24’s Director and Curator, David C. Terry and Gallery Manager Deborah Oster Pannell.

Eleen Lin, Fluke, 2021, Oil and acrylic on canvas, 36 x 24in. (91.4 x 61cm)

Luchia Meihua Lee-Howell is the founding Executive Director of the Taiwanese American Arts Council (TAAC). Residing in New York City since 1995, she has been an independent curator since 2002, and she has successfully curated many exhibitions and events along with a wide variety of lecture series at various museums, art organizations and galleries. Ms. Lee is co-editor of the book Zhang Hongtu: Expanding Visions of a Shrinking World,co-published by Duke University Press and Queens Museum. For over 10 years she researched Taoist philosophy, which with Buddhism and Confucianism forms the foundation of Taiwan’s and China’s culture. Ms. Lee received her M. Phil in the History of Art and Architecture at Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland with a thesis on Insular art, with a focus on the use of new technology for the exhibition of Medieval manuscripts. She was Director and Chief Curator of the Exhibition Department of the National Taiwan Museum of Art, Cultural Specialist at the Council for Cultural Affairs (Cultural Ministry) in Taiwan, and Curator at CICC, TECO in NY, Taipei Gallery in New York City. Her exhibitions have received international media attention, including in the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal. She is committee member and art consultant for various organizations, and has served on art juries for several community art organizations. The non-profit TAAC builds bridges between communities, nationally and internationally through art and culture to deepen our senses of beauty, inspiration, and empathy.

Eleen Lin, Strange Shapes of the Unwarped Primal World, 2022 Oil and acrylic on canvas, 72 x 96in. (183 x 244cm)

Samuel Otter has taught in the English Department at the University of California at Berkeley since 1990. His research and teaching focus on nineteenth-century United States literatures. He has published Melville’s Anatomies, an analysis of how Melville, in his long fiction of the 1840s and 1850s, portrayed the ways in which meanings, particularly racial meanings, were abstracted from human bodies. In Philadelphia Stories, he examined narratives about race, character, manners, violence, and freedom in a range of works produced between 1790 and 1860 about Philadelphia and its “free” African American communities. These works regarded the city as a social laboratory in which possible futures for a post-slavery United States would be tested. He currently is working on a book titled Melville’s Forms, assessing the entire career (not only fiction but also poetry and prose/poetry experiments), in which he considers what Melville meant by, and so what 21st-century literary critics might more precisely mean by, the tiny, crucial term "form." This project has been supported by fellowships from the John Simon Guggenheim Foundation and the National Endowment for the Humanities. He has co-edited Frederick Douglass and Herman Melville: Essays in Relation and Melville and Aesthetics. From 2014 until 2019, he served as the editor of Leviathan: A Journal of Melville Studies.   To attend the April 30th 12:00pm zoom panel, use this link.   For more information about works by Eleen Lin, click on the above images or email: info@c24gallery.com.

Historic Yves Klein Announced as Highlight of Phillips’ 20th Century and Contemporary Art Evening Sal

Historic Yves Klein Announced as Highlight of Phillips’ 20th Century and Contemporary Art Evening Sale   Relief Éponge bleu sans titre (RE 49) to be Offered on 18 May, Estimated at $14-18 Million   Exhibition Opens 30 April at 432 Park Avenue   Yves Klein Relief Éponge bleu sans titre (RE 49), 1961 Estimate: $14,000,000 - 18,000,000   NEW YORK – 19 APRIL 2022 – Joining Phillips’ 20th Century & Contemporary Art Evening Sale lineup is Yves Klein’sRelief Éponge Bleu Sans Titre (RE 49), 1961, a masterwork from his monumental Relief éponges series of 1958-1961. Dedicated to Klein’s close friend and legendary photographer Charles Wilp, the work was created in the pivotal year of the important exhibition Yves Klein: Monochrome und Feuer at the Museum Haus Lange, Krefeld, which marked the only institutional retrospective of the artist’s lifetime. Relief Éponge Bleu Sans Titre (RE 49) will be offered at Phillips on 18 May with the estimate of $14-18 million, marking the first time that the work will be exhibited and offered in over a decade.   Cheyenne Westphal, Global Chairwoman, said, “Relief Éponge Bleu Sans Titre (RE 49) is a masterpiece of the artist’s most sought-after series with its grand scale and historic provenance. Unifying the two most important material discoveries of the artist’s career – International Klein Blue and the incorporation of sponges on canvas – the work is the perfect embodiment of Klein’s enduring legacy and profound impact on post-war art. We are delighted to showcase it along with the other 20th century masters in Phillips’ most exciting sale to date.”   In Relief Éponge Bleu Sans Titre (RE 49), natural sponges and pebbles are drenched in Klein’s signature color, the topography appearing to infinitely evolve before the viewer’s eyes as light and shadow play across the velvety surface. Conjuring the mysterious depths of the ocean floor or the graveled lands of extraterrestrial worlds, the accumulation of sponges and pebbles in Relief Éponge Bleu Sans Titre (RE 49) reflect Klein’s advancement of his two-dimensional IKB monochromes into the next dimension with the relief éponges. For Klein, sponges were the perfect vehicle to encapsulate his lifelong inquiries into materializing the immaterial. With their porous and absorbent qualities, sponges embodied the artist’s endeavor of subsuming the viewer into his mystical realm of color.    Following its execution in 1961, Klein gifted the work to his friend, Charles Wilp. A student of Man Ray, Wilp was an innovative German photographer, film editor, artist, and advertising designer at the center of the post-war avant-garde milieu. His multifaceted endeavors led him to closely befriend Klein, Andy Warhol, Joseph Beuys, Lucio Fontana, and ZERO group founders Otto Piene, Heinz Mack, and Günther Uecker—among many other celebrated figures. Wilp notably documented Klein working on his monumental project of sponge relief murals for the foyer of the Gelsenkirchen Opera House from 1958-1959, as well as the artist’s iconic performance spectacle Anthropométries de l'époque bleue at the Galerie Internationale d'Art Contemporain in March 1960.   Klein dedicated the present work to Wilp on a label on the reverse: “d'abord il n'y a rien, ensuite il n'y a un rien profound, puis une profondeur bleue chez Wilp!” (“first there is nothing, then there is a profound nothing, then a blue depth in Wilp!”)—a play on his famous quoting of Gaston Bachelard’s Air and Dreams at his 1959 lecture at the Sorbonne: “First there is nothing, then there is a deep nothing, then there is a blue depth.”   Auction: 18 May 2022 Auction viewing: 30 April - 18 May Location: 432 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10022 Click here for more information: https://www.phillips.com/auctions/auction/NY010322

Leila Heller Gallery, rom April 23 to November 27, 2022, for the 59th Venice Biennale

Leila Heller Gallery is pleased to announce the participation of our two artists, Mouna Rebeiz and Rachel Lee Hovnanian, in the 2022 Venice Biennale.   Mouna Rebeiz, Set of 21 Tarot Cards, 180x100cm each, Oil on polished mirrored aluminum; Mouna Rebeiz, Totem, 9 Plexi puzzle pieces, 242cm x 50cm x 6cm The Soothsayer by Mouna Rebeiz Curated by Ami Barak St. George's Anglican Church Campo San Vio, 30123 Venice VE April 23rd to November 27th, 2022             From April 23 to November 27, 2022, for the 59th Venice Biennale and under the patronage of the Republic of San Marino, the Lebanese-Canadian artist Mouna Rebeiz is presenting “The Soothsayer,” a body of new works that invites the viewer to a symbolic and metaphoric journey in the St. George Anglican Church in Venice, Italy.   The title of the exhibition, “The Soothsayer,” refers to the character of Shakespeare’s tragedy who warned the emperor Julius Caesar of his premeditated assassination in the Senate, but who was ignored and called a “dreamer.” Mouna Rebeiz uses the idea of premonition as being one of the artist’s missions.   The artist takes an interest in the unlikely meeting point between artificial intelligence and the mystic. Three works dialogue with each other and guide the visitor along the path of his own discovery and that of humanity: a majestic set of the revisited 22 Major Arcana of the Tarot of Marseille, a puzzle of colored pieces and an abstract totemic sculpture.   Arranged in an arc along the central nave, the reinterpreted 22 Major Arcana of the Tarot of Marseille, painted on polished aluminum plates using a singular pictorial technique, symbolize the psyche’s original core and of self-awareness.   The puzzle wall of colored pieces, upright behind the holy water font, symbolizes the boundary between the real and the great beyond, in which ancestors, spirits, wisemen and new divinities cohabit. The puzzle pieces that compose the wall are associated with a production system of a prophecy through the sense of touch. It is projected in the church’s space in a textual form.   A totem composed of transparent puzzle pieces made from recycled Plexiglas is in the entrance of the nave. It is also an offshoot of the gods, ancestors and wisemen who reign in another dimension and who choose to communicate with us. We can read on the totem, in gothic characters, the first quatrain of Charles Baudelaire’s Correspondences.   In the very center of the St. George Anglican Church of Venice, the meditative vocation of the three elements of the performative work takes on its full dimension.
