I Am Art - An Expression of the Visual & Artistic Process of Plastic Surgery
March 28 - May 9, 2009
Leon Dufourmentel, a pioneer in plastic surgery, said in 1948, “...If I went to Picasso for my portrait, he would probably make me a monster and I should be pleased because it would be worth a million francs. But if Picasso came to me with a facial injury and I made him into a monster, aha, he might not be so pleased.”

My Heart's Ass: Short Films About Love
February 11 - March 21, 2009
If the secrets to finding true love are often elusive, well, so
are the secrets to making films about love. How do you inject
humor into a film about heartbreak? How do you portray a happy
romance without being too saccharine and oversentimental? Author
and filmmaker Davy Rothbart, at work on a personal documentary
called My Heart Is An Idiot, has asked a collection of
talented and eclectic friends to explore these and other challenges
by producing short, love-related films of their own.

aims to expand this debate by showing the outcome of artistic
research in seven examples of best practices from artistic PhD

Harley Spiller SCRAWL
September 4 - October 11, 2008 SCRAWL consists
of close to 100 different handmade pronouncements collected from
the streets and subways of New York City over the past 25 years.
The works on exhibition range from scary to silly, from terse suggestions
to indecipherably complex amalgams of mathematical figuring, philosophical
posturing, and political ranting. Whether the ideas are impeccably
presented in uniquely beautiful calligraphy, or scribbled, illegible
palimpsests, the creators all seek to have their ideas recognized,
many silently urging their fellow New Yorkers to right wrongs both
personal and universal. |

This show explored a very small and specific type of artmaking
exemplified by contemporary people like David Shrigley, Raymond
Pettibon, Nedko Solakov, and Tucker Nichols. This kind of art,
which we refuse to name, is somewhat crude, usually irreverent,
and always funny. It exists somewhere between one-panel cartoons
and text-based art. |

Thinking in Loop: Three videos
on iconoclasm, ritual and immortality
February 20 - March 29, 2008
Through visual elements and theoretical texts, the videos in
this exhibition reflected on the application of appropriational
technique to film. Each of these videos combines a theoretical
text that is written and spoken by the author and film footage,
fragments taken out of different movies and film documentations.
At first glance these videos remind the spectator of the videos
and short films that are used today to transmit knowledge, to
comment on the news, to spread religious and ideological propaganda,
or to be used in the framework of education. |

Land Grab
November 7 - December 22, 2007
As real estate prices have skyrocketed throughout cities of the
world, it has become increasingly difficult to sustain a place.
Some artists' responses to this situation mirror those of many
practitioners in the sixties and seventies who moved to the margins
to seek out an abandoned or still undeveloped site to live and
work on an expanded scale. By contrast, no piece in LAND GRAB
has involved a real estate transaction or finding that prime location.

and poverty. Through an open call to curators and artists, over
450 people became "with biennial." All works were available for
donation. All 355 works in the exhibition were bid on and that
nearly $13,000 was raised (in $10 increments) for the Robin Hood

will be connected by a text running along the walls of the gallery.
The visitor can choose to engage with the exhibition either superficially

Let Everything Be Temporary,
or When Is The Exhibition?
January 10 - February 17, 2007
This exhibition brings together the work of a group of artists
that consistently and very differently explore temporariness and,
more specifically, the possibility of temporal instability in
the work of art. This is manifest not so much as a subject, but
rather as a constitutive element, shaping the artwork's fragility
as well as the indeterminacy of an exhibition visitor's experience
of it. Whether primarily motivated by the political, aesthetic,
economic, or the intimate, these objects literally perform their
temporal questioning.

Whether a gift for a superior, an inferior, a partner, family

hidden meaning and gift giving. Ten local artists have each been
commissioned to produce a "gift." A present for someone
they don't know. The only restriction given was that it had to
fit in the gift box we provided, otherwise we would show whatever
they gave us, with no censorship.

Phantom Captain: Art and
Crowdsourcing
October 18 - November 25, 2006
Phantom Captain explores art collaboration that involves
amateur groups of individuals responding to “crowdsourcing”
initiatives created by artists. The term crowdsourcing was coined
by Jeff Howe and Mark Robinson of Wired Magazine and
describes “user-generated content,” or outsourcing
labor to armies of amateurs. While crowdsourcing is becoming common
practice in business (see Howard Rheingold’s Smart Mobs),
its potential is also being harnessed by artists to create communal
artworks.

drawing-like records of physical movement, which allowed viewers
to explore, and in many cases invent, the internal logic of each
image.

Udo Kittelmann
Live and Let Die
June 4 - 20, 1998
Condenses three artworks into a comprehensive image, which deals
with the existential subjects of being human. The only artistic
medium in all three contributions being real people, it tells
the story of life and death and simultaneously illustrates that
these subjects are often taboo, both in art and in life.

Original Scale
January 8 - February 7, 1998
Looks to move beyond the binary terms of Abstract Expressionism
and ask whether there are other structural principles for contemporary
painting beyond the gesture and the grid. One proposal for an
alternate structure is the human body in its contigent experiences
of knowledge, memory, and perception.

'Pagan' Stories: The Situations of Narrative
in Recent Art
October 16 - November 15, 1997
After modernism's disavowal of the referential and the narrative,
contemporary art sees the return of narrative tropes and of the
artist as raconteur. The works in the show illustrate some of
the mulitude of ways in which artists are reinterpreting and restructuring
literary and illusionistic devices.

Gradually
September 11 - October 11, 1997
Borrowing the title phrase from Emily Dickinson, the exhibition
presents work that blurs medium boundaries, the result of which
is an understated and effortless ability to slowly reveal different
dimensions existing within the pieces - metaphor, materiality,
humor.
Artists: Ayse Erkman, Karin Sander, Roman Signer, Mikolaj Smoczynski
and Ken Unsworth |
