Matthew Marks presents Nan Goldin "Blood On My Hands." It is the first public exhibition of Goldin’s drawings, and it includes five new large-scale “grids” of multiple photographs composed in a single frame. Goldin has kept a diary since childhood, often filling the pages with drawings. Recently those drawings have taken on a new life as independent works of art. Emerging from her regular practice of daily reflection, they share the charged emotional atmosphere of her photographs, but their symbolic imagery, handwritten texts, and complex surfaces, made with a variety of mediums, introduce an expressive element that is new to her work. Goldin selects the photographs for her grids according to formal or psychological themes. For the new grids, the unifying element is color: pink, blue, gold, red, or black. Nan Goldin "Blood On My Hands" will be on view until December 23, 2016 @ Matthew Marks Gallery in New York. photographs by Adam Lehrer

A Glimpse Of Bogotá On The Eve Of Colombia's Peace Treaty With The FARC Rebel Army
Colombia just signed an historic peace deal with the FARC rebel army after 50 years of conflict. At the same time, Trump is elected President of the United States. Where one conflict ends, another is just burgeoning. During the International Art Fair of Bogota, ARTBO, artist and photographer Mattea Perrotta captured the city in this transitory stage, which proves that even the end of war can look nauseously like peace. Perrotta describes the energy in poetic strokes: "Su Merced: Kaleidoscope of anxiety, hope fear rage, gravitational waves, a similar rhythm, home and abroad, but a different beat, guerrilla FARC, Donald Trump, at war for 52 years, at war for seven days, juemadre juemadre juemadre, bastard! A peace accord seeking to be met, whisper your longing, in persistence tranquillo." photographs by Mattea Perrotta

Anxiety Group Show @ HVW8 Art and Design Gallery In Los Angeles
“Anxiety” engages with the common suggestion that art is a reflection of society. Art can serve as an expressive platform for individuals, groups, as well as society as a whole, especially accessible when radical changes or impactful events occur. It is powerful enough to portray the current emotions of a society, exposing harsh and subtle truths, while encouraging a change for the better. The exhibition explores and addresses the idea of art as a vehicle to illustrate and illuminate events and experiences. “Anxiety” addresses the unnerving tension of the strange climate of present day. Whether personal, political, economic, social, or geographical, it’s undeniably a strange moment on every macro and micro level. This show is an investigation of individual responses to a collective uneasiness. Anxiety Group Show will be on view until December 16, 2016 at HVW8 Art and Design Gallery at 661 N. Spaulding Ave. Los Angeles. photographs by Oliver Maxwell Kupper
