"Do Not Reproduce," A Group Exhibition, Runs At Von Lintel (Los Angeles) May 25 To July 20, 2019

5/23/2019

Do Not Reproduce, a group exhibition, runs at Von Lintel (1206 Maple Ave., Los Angeles) May 25 to July 10, 2019. There will be an opening from 6 to 9 p,m. Saturday, May 25.

When I take photos of art I often write "this piece doesn't translate to a photograph." That is what this exhibit is about. Art that doesn't translate easily to a digital image. You won't know what is being shown until you show up...which is quite old school. This is a truly clever and exciting concept for an exhibit.

The press release puts it well-- "This exhibition makes the case that the pixelated facsimile of art on a backlit screen, where depth, detail and materiality become all but indiscernible, is not a substitute for the experience of standing in front of the actual artwork and engaging with it."

The exhibit is at the gallery's new LA location.

The exhibit features work by Carolyn Marks Blackwood, Christiane Feser, Rosemarie Fiore, Valerie Jaudon, Chuck Kelton, Klea McKenna, Floris Neusüss,
Kate Petley, Osceola Refetoff, Paul Rusconi, Christopher Russell, Joachim Schulz, Joseph Stashkevetch, Canan Tolon, Michael Waugh and John Zinsser.

Birch Contemporary (Toronto) Showed Work By Richard Storms At Philadelphia Fine Art Fair 2019

4/23/2019

Birch Contemporary (Toronto) showed work by Richard Storms At Philadelphia Fine Art Fair 2019.

If you go to the gallery page you will see that Storms work ranges from numerous depictions of cats and dogs to lovely geometric pieces. This is, perhaps, a bit of a departure for him, depicting the human animal.

His work has a unique take on texture. I found it sort of odd and off putting but here is the funny thing; it made me look. It made me examine and it brought me in. They look simple at first glance but they are not.
