One Day At A Time is inspired by American painter and film critic Manny Farber and his legendary underground essay “White Elephant Art vs. Termite Art” (1962). One Day at a Time: Manny Farber and Termite Art features approximately thirty artists and more than 100 works of painting, sculpture, photography, film, video, and sound dating from the 1950s to the present. The exhibition is conceived as a cross between a monographic exhibition and a group show—an experiment in exhibition-making in the spirit of Farber’s call for an art of “both observing and being in the world.” The exhibition will open on October 14 and is on view through March 11, 2019 at The Museum of Contemporary Art 250 South Grand Ave, Los Angeles. photographs by Oliver Maxwell Kupper
The Player at Museo Marini Marino
The Player (journey into contemporary passions) is a small selection comprising of international mid-career artists from the collection of Sandra and Giancarlo Bonollo. Comprising of philosophically intimate objects effused with the theme of travel. Globes positioned in a snail-shell whirl espouse many-worlds theories, as do photographs of allegorical space and time. Quietly haunting, the show is an orchestration of journeys and possibilities. This journey takes you across invisible borders, across separate timelines and back again. The Player will be on view until April 6 2013, at Museo Marini Marino, Piazza san Pancrazio, 50123 Florence, Italy. Text and photography by Yanyan Huang
