Raymond Pettibon "A Pen Of All Work" @ The New Museum In New York

The New Museum presents a major exhibition focusing on the work of Raymond Pettibon (b. 1957, Tucson, AZ). For over thirty years, Pettibon has been chronicling the history, mythology, and culture of America with a prodigious and distinctive voice. Through his drawings’ signature interplay between image and text, he moves between historical reflection, emotional longing, poetic wit, and strident critique. Since the late 1960s, he has produced thousands of drawings and energetic installations that have been executed in museums and galleries around the world. These works poignantly evoke the country’s shifting values across time, from the idealistic postwar period in which he was born to the collapse of the American counterculture in the ’70s and ’80s to the painful military and social conflicts of the present. Raymond Pettibon "A Pen Of All Work" will be on view from February 8 until April 9, 2017 at the New Museum in New York. photographs by Adam Lehrer

Tatiana Echeverri Fernandez "Bones And Bloodlines To Space" @ Museum as Retail Space (MaRS) Gallery In Los Angeles

The body is not a vessel, but only a liminal reference. We wish to leave it. Drugs, spiritual experiences, vicarious fantasy, ecstatic states - we enact a multitude of practices to negate its reference. The absent gas of a neon tube, the spatially displaced narrative of a car windshield, and the formally resistant presence of a gradient, evoke a multiplicity of dimension in concert. Wassily Kandinsky’s philosophical treatise Point and Line to Plane is recalled, but through our corporeal perspective. The brown and yellow monochrome casts remind us of what was, is, and will be bodily part of us. Fernandez creates her photograms in complete darkness, without aide of a safelight. Her motions and arrangements a deft balance of intention and intuition, manipulating artifacts of our dying modernity. The neolithic act of cave painting might be comparable, miles into the utter darkness of the earth, to subsume the essence of great beasts that sustain us. The prehistoric urge to document comes from darkness, because from nothing comes the urge to exist. The primordial symbol of the snake references its own perpetual documentation of its body, leaving us the sublimation from itself. Tatiana Echeverri Fernandez "Bones And Bloodlines To Space" in on view now at Museum as Retail Space (MaRS) gallery In Los Angeles. text by Robert Zin Stark. photographs by Oliver Maxwell Kupper

Katharina Grosse Exhibition @ Gagosian Gallery in New York

Gagosian present new paintings and sculpture by Katharina Grosse. A prominent figure on the international art circuit, this is her first gallery exhibition in New York and at Gagosian, following a series of significant public commissions in the U.S. in recent years. Grosse approaches painting as an experience in immersive subjectivity. With a spray gun, she disconnects the artistic act from the hand, stylizing gesture as a propulsive mark. The resulting pictures are distinct, but never predetermined. Spatial tensions rise through shifts in chromatic temperature. Challenging boundaries, she reintroduces her body as an active agent within a vision of contemporary existence that is at once physically isolated and densely networked. On view until March 19, at Gagosian Gallery, 555 West 24th Street. photographs by Adam Lehrer

Ghost Of A Dream "A Devil To Pay" @ CES Gallery In Los Angeles

CES Gallery presents A Devil To Pay, the first solo exhibition in Los Angeles by artist duo Ghost of a Dream. Considering desires, Ghost of a Dream collects ephemera discarded in the pursuit of dreams and reassembles this matter into hypnotic visions of cultural identity. Constructing work from materials such as lottery tickets, trophies, travel posters, romance novels, art fair booths, and art shipping crates, Ghost of a Dream transforms these items, supposedly drained of their use-value, into sculpture, video, and two-dimensional meditations on material and symbolic value. Ghost Of A Dream "A Devil To Pay" will be on view until March 5, 2017 @ CES Gallery in Los Angeles. photographs by Oliver Maxwell Kupper
