Looks interesting, Hauser 7& Wirth present Rashid Johnson The Hikers Opening 12 November 2019-25 January 2020

Press Release Rashid Johnson The Hikers 12 November 2019 – 25 January 2020 Hauser & Wirth New York, 22nd Street Opening reception: Tuesday 12 November, 6 – 8 pm New York... Hauser & Wirth is pleased to present ‘The Hikers,’ an exhibition of recent works by American artist Rashid Johnson. The exhibition brings together ceramic tile mosaics, collaged paintings, and a large-scale sculpture that address Johnson’s recurring interest in currents of anxiety and escapism created by the political and social turmoil felt across the United States and around the globe. The exhibition borrows its title from Johnson’s latest film, a centerpiece of the exhibition, shot earlier this year on location in the mountains of Colorado. ‘The Hikers’ unfolds through five rooms on the gallery’s second floor, in a formal arrangement that echoes the fragmentation and accumulation of Johnson’s mosaics and collaged works on display. The viewer is first greeted by three monumental mosaics, each comprised of myriad materials familiar from the artist’s practice: multi-color ceramic and mirror tile, oil stick, black soap, wax, and branded red oak flooring. These works evolved out of Johnson’s Anxious Men and Anxious Audiences (2015 – 2018), earlier series in which frenzied, abstracted faces were rendered in black soap and wax on a grid of white tiles. Here, his images of Broken Men and their fellows explode in a storm of bold hues, errant drips of wax, splashes of paint, and splintered surfaces. In these new works, Johnson pushes the anxiety of his figures to a breaking point, both metaphorically and physically. Whether portrayed alone or in groups, as in ‘Broken Crowds’ (2019), on view in the exhibition’s second room, these broken figures speak to collective and individual identities caught in the midst of shifting social realities. As injustices and racial conflicts in the US have continued to flare, Johnson’s works have likewise become more charged and dystopian than their earlier Anxious counterparts. Weathering this turmoil, ‘Untitled Bronze Head’ (2019) is a large-scale bronze figure awaiting the viewer traversing ‘The Hikers.’ This imposing, black patinated bust, standing five feet tall and brimming with verdure, recalls both its smaller ceramic counterparts and Johnson’s gridded metal structures (among them the 2016 monumental installation ‘Antoine’s Organ,’ populated with potted vegetation). Johnson’s new sculpture takes on a shamanistic or fetishistic quality, proposing an organic framework, an ecosystem for which to care and in which to thrive. In an adjacent room, three recent works from Johnson’s series of Escape Collages extend across the walls in kaleidoscopic compositions of appropriated photographic imagery. African masks, palm trees, sunsets, seascapes, galaxies, forest res, and covers of Harold Cruse’s celebrated 1967 treatise ‘The Crisis of the Negro Intellectual’ all come together in dizzying juxtapositions rendered on a cinematic scale. The surfaces of these works are punctuated with interventions of ceramic tile, mirror, and wood; sweeping gestures of the artist’s hand are recorded in thick oil stick and enamel spray paint. ‘The Hikers’ culminates with Johnson’s 16 mm film of the same name. Seven minutes in length, the film features two black male hikers — one ascending a mountain, another descending — who encounter each other as their paths cross. Their balletic movements are at once lithe and halting, athletic and awkward, challenging stereotypical notions of the forever rhythmic elegance of the black body in space. Collaborating with a choreographer, Johnson sought to express the psychological and physical consequences of life in the naturally challenging and too often unjust modern world, asking himself: ‘What are the movements like when a black man is walking past a police of officer? Or when a black man is suffering from agoraphobia?’ [1] ‘The Hikers,’ debuted at the Aspen Art Museum, CO, accompanied by a dance performance, and was subsequently shown at Museo Tamayo, Mexico, earlier this year. Hauser & Wirth is pleased to host a series of related performances in conjunction with Rashid Johnson’s exhibition. See www.hauserwirth.com/ events for details of the performances. About the artist Born in Chicago in 1977, Johnson has continually explored the relationships between biographic and collective narratives through themes such as art history, literature, philosophy, materiality, and critical history. His multidisciplinary practice spans sculpture, painting, drawing, filmmaking, and installation, and incorporates a diverse range of materials and objects significant to African-American and other African diasporic communities. 1.

WALKER ART CENTER PRESENTS MAJOR GROUP EXHIBITION THE PARADOX OF STILLNESS: ART, OBJECT, AND PERFORMANCE Maria Hassabi, STAGING (2017), Merce Cunningham: Common Time, Walker Art Center, February 8–12, 2017. Photo: Gene Pittman, Walker Art Center. Presenting works from the early 20th century to today, The Paradox of Stillness: Art, Object, and Performance is a large-scale group exhibition which examines the notion of stillness as both a performative and visual gesture, featuring artists who have constructed static or near-static experiments that hover somewhere between action and representation as they are experienced in the gallery. Stillness and permanence are qualities typically seen as inherent to painting and sculpture—consider the frozen gestures of a historical tableau, the timelessness of a still life painting, or the unyielding solidity of a bronze or marble figure. The Paradox of Stillness, however, expands the artwork's quality of stillness to accommodate uncertain temporalities and physical states. The exhibition rethinks the history of performance, featuring artists whose works include performative elements but also embrace acts, objects, and gestures that refer more to the inert qualities of traditional painting or sculpture than to true staged action. Investigating the interplay between the fixed image and the live body, this major group exhibition showcases over 100 works by approximately 60 artists, including fifteen live performances throughout the duration of the show by Francesco Arena, Simone Forti, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Anthea Hamilton, Maria Hassabi, Pierre Huyghe, Anne Imhof, Joan Jonas, Goshka Macuga, Senga Nengudi, Roman Ondák, Michelangelo Pistoletto, Tino Sehgal, Cally Spooner, and Franz Erhard Walther. Artists included in the exhibition: Marina Abramović, Giovanni Anselmo, Vanessa Beecroft, Larry Bell, Robert Breer, Trisha Brown, Pier Paolo Calzolari, Paul Chan, Merce Cunningham, Giorgio De Chirico, Fortunato Depero, VALIE EXPORT, Lara Favaretto, T. Lux Feininger, Urs Fischer, Simone Forti, Gilbert and George, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Anthea Hamilton, David Hammons, Maria Hassabi, Pierre Huyghe, Anne Imhof, Joan Jonas, Eva Kot'átková, Paul Kos, David Lamelas, Fernand Léger, Goshka Macuga, Maruja Mallo, Piero Manzoni, Fabio Mauri, Lucia Moholy-Nagy, Robert Morris, Senga Nengudi, Alwin Nikolais, Paulina Olowska, Roman Ondák, Dennis Oppenheim, Philippe Parreno and Rirkrit Tiravanija, Pier Paolo Pasolini, Francis Picabia, Michelangelo Pistoletto, Charles Ray, Pietro Roccasalva, Anri Sala, Xanti Schawinsky, Oskar Schlemmer, Cindy Sherman, Roman Signer, Laurie Simmons, Avery Singer, Cally Spooner, Sophie Taeuber-Arp, Franco Vaccari, Jeff Wall, Franz Erhald Walther, Tom Wesselmann, Franz West, Jordan Wolfson, and Haegue Yang.

Denise Bibro Fine Art exhibits Aldofo Doring's photos and film October 3 - November 9, 2019.

GALLERY II: ADOLFO DORING PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEO     October 3 - November 9, 2019 Adolfo Doring (131-190) Garage, Los Angeles Sylvia Elizabeth, Brooklyn (POSTED 162 GRAMS), 2016 Unique silver gelatin print, 9 x 12.75 inches, framed Denise Bibro Fine Art is pleased to announce its first exhibition of photography and video work by the late multidisciplinary artist, Adolfo Doring. His diptych silver gelatin black and white images are from his POSTED 162 Grams series and the larger photos are from his American Burger series. Doring's solo exhibition runs October 3 - November 9, 2019. Doring's diptychs are based on images of females and environmental scenes that he posted on Instagram from August 2014 - September 2015. Each image of a female figure and the environment were assigned a layer of meta-data to differentiate the two types of images, then a second set of meta-data was assigned to indicate the number of likes for each image, which he would combine to make a diptych. When selecting which images would be placed on the right and the left, Doring left it completely up to chance; he flipped a coin. In his own words, "The random nature of the process has given me the unexpected pleasure of experiencing unexpected compositions." The American Burger series and the video shown about highways in Mexico City display the commercialism, fast pace and unpredictability in the city, although quite different they are still in tone with his humanistic and idiosyncratic style. The video shown sets a contrasting tone from the rich, vintage tones of the photograph, echoing the nuts and bolts of the infrastructure of motorways in his native city, Mexico City, full of the life, movement and pace of the city. His compositions are silver gelatin prints. His photographs reference the daguerreotypes of nineteenth-century photography. As New York writer, Miss Rosen states, "... when regular people who might not be able to afford a portrait could have likenesses preserved-much in the same way digital photography has democratized the image making. By translating digital photographs back to film, Doring illustrates that progress is not necessarily a linear affair, just as randomness is a valuable tool in the creative process." Rosen further notes ".... that somewhere where between chance and mystery lies imagination." Doring has been behind the camera since he was a teenager in Mexico City, where he shot his first documentary about the stark divide between rich and poor. Later he had an extensive and illustrious career making films, documentaries, music videos, taking photographs, and crafting art installations centered upon his videos. He studied law at Universidad Anahuac in Mexico City, Mexico, and Sociology and Film at Columbia University, New York. His video work in the music industry earned him an MTV Music Video Award. His narrative films and documentaries earned him critical praise (Metro premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in 2009) and his video installations have travelled the world over. Since 2010 his works have been featured in many Whitebox Center shows as well as in other exhibitions curated by Silas Von Morisse Gallery, New York, NY; Raul Zamudio-in Shanghai, China; Monterrey, Mexico; San Jose, Costa Rica; and Saint Angelo, Italy. Adolfo's untimely death in 2016 leaves behind a rich legacy for future generations to cherish.

Takako Yamaguchi: New Paintings November 3 - December 21, 2019 Opening Reception Sunday, November 3, 2-5 pm (Please note end of daylight savings time)

Installation View Photo Credit: Doug Henry   Veteran Los Angeles painter Takako Yamaguchi is showing seventeen new paintings at As Is. These modestly scaled (18" x 24") oil on linen paintings present an inventory of simple shapes and forms of the kind we associate with the history of modernist abstraction; an association heightened by their nearly monochromatic white-on-white palette. Cutting against expectations of the genre, however, this minimalist imagery is all hand-painted by the artist from source photos in a trompe l'oeil style. The resulting artworks oscillate uneasily between the poles of abstraction and representation, high culture and kitsch, slow (production) and fast (reception) without finally settling in one camp or the other. In this, Yamaguchi extends a strategy of calculated ambiguity that began in her earliest "Pattern and Decoration" paintings of the 1980s, an example of which is included in the MOCA, Los Angeles exhibition With Pleasure, coinciding with her show at As Is.   as-is.la is an art gallery and exhibition space focusing on modern and contemporary art with an emphasis on local Los Angeles history and regional culture.
