Teaser: Barry McGee @ PRISM

Posted by sleepboy, April 1, 2012

We have some exciting news for Twist fans out west. Right on the heels of announcing an upcoming exhibition from George Condo set for opening this Saturday, the PRISM Gallery in Los Angeles has given word that Barry McGee has “next” (come May 12th). What a glorious run of three shows for the architectural showspace, as they only recently played host to Os Gemeos’ mind-blowing installations and paintings. If the Bay-area legend’s 2009 showing at the gallery is any indication, fans are in for a [...]

Teaser: INSA – “Self Reflection is greater than Self Projection” @ Londonewcastle Project Space

Posted by sleepboy, March 28, 2012

Tomorrow, March 29th, at the Londonewcastle Project Space, a special one night only showing of an installation from INSA will be opening its doors to the public. As you can see from the photos above (by Ian Cox), the experience will prove to be immersive and somewhat disconcerting for the viewer as the walls, ceiling, and floor are wrapped with some of the UK-based artist’s signature imagery. Self Reflection is greater than Self Projection reiterates issues of the female body and commodity fetishism that is often [...]

Teaser: Ryan McGinness – “Geometric Primitives” @ Pace Primitive

Posted by sleepboy, March 28, 2012

On Friday night, March 30th, Pace Primitive in New York will be hosting the opening of Ryan McGinness’ newest solo show entitled Geometric Primitives. The title of the show plays off a term used in computer graphics, which is part of NYC-based artist’s process, that refer the smallest and irreducible geometric elements that the system can handle such as lines, circles, curves, and polygons. Continuing on this theme, McGinness has taken advantage of Pace Primitive’s inventory of African art, which has historically featured schematic reductions of [...]

Come March 31st, Yosuke Ueno will lift the veil covering his newest body of work, The Specific Illusion at the Thinkspace Gallery, his third solo with the Culver City showspace.
