James Andrew Brown's "From The Heart Runs At Detour Gallery (Red Bank, NJ) September 7 To October 19, 2019

8/30/2019

James Andrew Brown's From The Heart Runs at Detour Gallery (24 Clay St., Red Bank, NJ) September 7 to October 19, 2019. There will be
a reception from 6 to 9:30 p.m. Saturday, September 7.

The work consists of "raw assemblage consisting of energetic brush strokes and collages, congregated by mediums, I can't wholly recognize, all compounded into a perfect story that I still feel in my spine" according to perhaps the most impassioned press release I've ever seen from a gallery (usually they are full of art school jargon).

It bodes well for the exhibit.

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.
