Mark Hogancamp: Crash Landing / "Guitar" up through 17th!

Mark Hogancamp: Crash Landing / "Guitar" up through 17th!
November 14, 2012
One Mile Gallery

Mark Hogancamp, Crash Landing!

  Opening Reception, Saturday, December 1, 2-7 pm



Opening Reception, Saturday, December 1, 2-7 pm

One Mile Gallery concludes its 2012 season with Crash Landing!, new and old works by Mark Hogancamp. This is the artist's first exhibition with the gallery. It continues through Saturday, January 5, 2013. 

Mark Hogancamp is a photographer who prefers to identify himself as a director, and with good reason. Mark is the creator of Marwencol, a 1/6 scale, WWII-era Belgian village in which he stages and photographs a complex narrative of Nazi intrigue, lesbian melodrama, and Sgt. Rock-style heroics. With his immense cast of dolls, Mark freely intermixes history and fantasy, allowing Kurt Russell to confront Goebbels, time-traveling witches to antagonize Hitler, and Mark himself to battle personal demons.

In 2000, Mark was the victim of an assault outside of a bar that left him with brain damage. Faced with significant memory loss, diminished hand-eye coordination, and crushing anxiety, Mark retreated from the real world into the imaginary one of Marwencol. Inclined to think of the project more as therapy than art, Mark worked for years in obscurity, accumulating thousands of photographs before his unique oeuvre was eventually discovered. A 2010 documentary, Jeff Malmberg's award-winning "Marwencol," earned Mark international attention and a significant new fan base. 

Works soon available for sale at www.onemilegallery.com

FACTOR 41N-9W: Riad Miah & Luis Nobre


Riad Miah was born in Trinidad and Tobago, and lives and works in New York, NY. Luis Nobre was born, lives and works in Lisbon, Portugal. Both artists have been colleagues since 2001.

In this show, the Portuguese artist Luis Nobre and the American artist Riad Miah explore ideas of nature, materiality, color and memory. Each is interested in process, in painting and drawing as acts of commemoration and creation; each is also interested in the overlapping of individuals and groups, of one-offs and series. For both, process is often paramount: Nobre gathers inspiration for weeks, until the point at which inspiration gleaned from multiple sources  demands concretization. In a similar vein, Miah draws from both nature and culture- from biology, astronomy, art history- to create work that simultaneoulsly embraces the microscopic and the macrocosmic. Nobre and Miah here present new work in which form and content teach one another, often in surprising and innovative ways. Above all, the imperative to please aesthetically comes to the fore, with play and chance collaborating.

The exhibition presents the two artists’ works on both floors of the gallery. On the main floor of the gallery Nobre will present works that incorporates a distorted geometric pattern that is an Arabic decoration seen in the streets of Lisbon. The motif breaks the flat organized structure by creating an illusion of a form that is simultaneously flat and 3-dimensional.

Miah’s work consists of an installation of 20 hexagonal canvases. The color sequence of the 20 canvases is based on the Fibonacci system. The color of each canvas is based on the numbers in Fibonacci’s sequence, using violet=1, red=1, orange=2, yellow=3, green=5, blue=8. Violet starts the system even though it is often the last color within the R,O,Y,G,B,V color wheel.  Through this mathematical process, organic-seeming images are created.  Aquatic, astronomical, biological, and pop culture imagery is suggested.

The works downstairs are by both artists, both working in an intuitive process, wherein each piece is free to develop in dialog with other pieces, without a superimposed system and without preconception.

Riad Miah holds a B.F.A. from the School of Visual Arts and an M.F.A from the Ohio State University. He is an alumnus of Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture and the Vermont Studio Center. He is a recipient of a NYFA Fellowship in the category of Painting and previously a professor at Parsons The New School for Design. Miah’s work has been exhibited and collected nationally and internationally.

Luis Nobre is currently attending the Faculty of Fine Arts, University of Lisbon where he will earn his PHD. He has participated in the International Residence Program at Location 1 in New York City, with the support of the Ministry of Culture and the Ilidio Pinho Foundation. His work has been exhibited on a national and international level.
