The LAB Gallery Presents: Billowing Beauty by Anne Ferrer
For more information call 212.339.2092 or email rogersmitharts@rogersmith.com
Video by John Birdsong
The LAB (for installation + performance art) is pleased to present Paris based artist Anne Ferrer in her first exhibition in New York City. Rooted in her experience of foreignness and the absence of an inherent sense of home, Anne's nomadic and sensorial sculpture is an organically inspired installation that is transportable in a suitcase.
Edward Rubin, the curator of Billowing Beauty, describes it as a lush and sensuous, sensitive and bold, mysteriously animated, Parisian soufflé. Comprised of five exuberantly colored, giant, hand-sewn modules; the installation, breathes, grows, and evolves in slow motion, to the 'lighter than air' music of Los Angeles based composer Carol Worthey. This 'live ballet' brings a continuous element of chaos, surprise and joy, like a floating bubble, or a shimmering shrine, to one of the busiest avenues in New York City.
Anne Ferrer who lives and works in Paris comes from a Catalan family and has grown up in small rural town in south France. She has studied in the US, receiving her BFA from Oklahoma University and her MFA from Yale (1988). Ferrer has shown at the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris (2002), the Centre Pompidou (2005), France, the Blue Star, San Antonio Texas (2009), the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (1996), the Ho Ham Museum in Seoul, la Casa de Americas in Madrid, the French Institute in Rome and Naples, etc, and has recently built a monumental installation for the Dumbo Art Festival in Brooklyn. She has collaborated with Perfumers (International Flavors and Fragrances) as well as pastry chef Jean Paul Hevin, for her multi-sensorial sculptures. Ferrer is currently busy preparing a show for this summer at Chateau d'Avignon, France. anneferrer.com
Composer Carol Worthey combines elements of classical, jazz and world music into an expressive, playful mix that soars and breathes with life and color. Inspired by family friend Leonard Bernstein Carol began composing at three and a half and had a piano work performed in Carnegie Hall when she was ten. Mentored by the likes of Darius Milhaud, Vincent Persichetti, Walter Piston and Otto Luening, she won First Prize in Composition at Columbia and expanded her dimensions at a jazz/arranging school. Her award winning music has been heard in England, Italy, France, Germany, China, Japan, Mexico, Canada, and throughout the United States. She lives in Los Angeles where she is writing a book on the art of composing. carolworthey.com

His writings on art, culture, and entertainment, appear regularly in such publications as ArtNexus, ArtUS, D'art International, Flash Art, Hispanic Outlook, NYArts and Sculpture Magazines, as well as online at Artes Magazine, Huma3, and NY Theatre Wire.

Contemporary Cabinets of Curiosity: Artist Mark Dion
Presented January 27, 2013 at the Nasher Sculpture Center.
In this slide-show, harking back to personal holidays and expeditions prior to digital photography, Artist Mark Dion unpacks his practice of examining the ways in which dominant ideologies and public institutions shape our understanding of history, knowledge, and the natural world. Since the early 1990s, Mark Dion has been appropriating archaeological and other scientific methods of collecting, ordering, and exhibiting objects, the artist creates works that address distinctions between objective scientific methods and subjective influences. By locating the roots of environmental politics and public policy in the construction of knowledge about nature, Dion questions the authoritative role of the scientific voice in contemporary society.
Mark Dion was born in New Bedford, Massachusetts, in 1961. He received a BFA (1986) and an honorary doctorate (2003) from the University of Hartford, School of Art, Connecticut. The artist’s spectacular and often fantastical curiosity cabinets, modeled on Wunderkabinetts of the sixteenth century, exalt atypical orderings of objects and specimens. By locating the roots of environmental politics and public policy in the construction of knowledge about nature, Mark Dion questions the authoritative role of the scientific voice in contemporary society. He has received numerous awards, including the ninth annual Larry Aldrich Foundation Award (2001). He has had major exhibitions at Miami Art Museum (2006); the Museum of Modern Art, New York (2004); the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum, Ridgefield, Connecticut (2003); and Tate Gallery, London (1999). 'Neukom Vivarium' (2006), a permanent outdoor installation and learning lab for the Olympic Sculpture Park, was commissioned by the Seattle Art Museum. Dion lives and works in Pennsylvania.
The Nasher Sculpture Center’s ongoing 360 Speaker Series features conversations and lectures on the ever-expanding definition of sculpture. Guests are invited to witness first-hand accounts of the inspiration behind some of the world’s most innovative artwork, architecture and design.

Pieter Schoolwerth: Depicting the World Once Removed
For over 20 years, painter and filmmaker Pieter Schoolwerth’s work has addressed the ways in which the ever-changing and often invisible forces of abstraction in the world, which can be associated with the digitization of more and more aspects of experience, affect the task of representing the human body. Schoolwerth has developed an expanded painting practice incorporating photography, image processing, inkjet printing and relief sculpture that can be said to echo the compression of space and time paradigmatic of communication today, in an effort to depict the human figure in virtual space – a world once removed from itself, in which the body is present through being absent. The talk will be followed by a conversation with artist and SVA Art History faculty member Lorne Blythe (MFA 2010 Photography, Video and Related Media). Presented by BFA Visual & Critical Studies.
Pieter Schoolwerth is an artist and filmmaker based in Brooklyn, NY. Since receiving his BFA from the California Institute of the Arts in 1994, he has exhibited internationally, with notable solo shows at Thread Waxing Space, Greene Naftali, American Fine Arts Co., and Miguel Abreu Gallery, New York, Galerie SKE, New Delhi, India, Galerie Nathalie Obadia, Paris and Brussels, and Capitain Petzel, Berlin. His work has been included in group exhibitions at The Museum of Modern Art, New York, The Whitney Museum of American Art, Centre Pompidou, Paris, The Aldrich Museum of Contemporary Art, Ridgefield, CT, the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, Sadie Coles HQ, London, and Gavin Brown Enterprises, New York. His work is in the permanent collections of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Denver Art Museum, and the Phoenix Art Musuem. In 2017 Schoolwerth presented his latest project Model as Painting in a series of three iterations, with solo exhibitions in Berlin, New York, and Paris. From 2003 to 2013, Schoolwerth ran Wierd Records and the Wierd Party at Home Sweet Home on the LES of NYC. Wierd released music by 42 bands working in the genres of minimal electronics, coldwave and noise, and produced over 500 live music, dj, and performance art events internationally (wierdrecords.com).
JACK SHAINMAN - Toyin Odutola
Jack Shainman Gallery is pleased to announce My Country Has No Name,
an exhibition of pen ink drawings on paper, metallic marker drawings,
ink on black board and new lithographs by Toyin Odutola. Together, the
range of works represent Odutola's practice which is grounded in an
obsessively fine and meticulous application of line that has become the
specified visual language through which she explores the human form
as a landscape. My Country Has No Name is an exploration of identity
rooted in the friction created by hyphenated nationalities and a study
into what comes from a reconciliation of seemingly distant and
divergent cultural homes to form a new multilayered reality.
Her pen markings, dense and engraved, either stand alone or cover
kaleidoscopic color fields that emanate from within. The acute
depictions of skin and hair both portray the figure, often Odutola, as
well as reference scientific renderings of subdermal muscular structures.
While concerned with the historical representation of the black subject
in modern and contemporary portraiture, Odutola's focus shifts to the
transcendence of skin (color) and placement (origin), opening a field for
the viewer to place themselves in the work; finding spaces to belong or
to reject, to possess, to implant one's self or to find freedom from the
rejection of that space.
All These Garlands Prove Nothing is a series of self-portraits recording
the range of hairstyles donned by the artist. By isolating the figure
against the blank white background and repeating the subject, Odutola
is confining the differences mainly to the hair and position of the body.
The interest is less in style and more in the undertones and associations
this specific physical embellishment provides when thinking about the
pliability of identity. These works dance between the understandings of
one's own identity and the understanding of one's identity as it relates
what is being reflected back from another's gaze.
In Come Closer: Black Surfaces. Black Grounds, Odutola uses black ink
on black board to question the validity, the aesthetic and the meaning
of the material aspect of blackness and how those connotations feed
into social identities and as she describes, a personal rejection of all the
ideas I associated with blackness in myself. The series Gauging Tone
employs the same black board, but instead of black ink, Odutola uses a
metallic Sharpie to cast lines and fill the negative space. Odutola
questions the inversion of her own aesthetic and in doing so looks
upon the equally problematic proposition of how black people see one
another.
Toyin Odutola, born in Nigeria, currently lives and works in Alabama.
Her work has been exhibited throughout the United States. Selected
group exhibitions include Ballpoint Pen Drawing Since 1950, Aldrich
Contemporary Art Museum, Ridgefield, Connecticut, 2013; The Progress
of Love, Menil Collection, Houston, Texas, 2012-2013; and Fore and
Gordon Parks: A Harlem Family 1967, The Studio Museum in Harlem, New
York, 2012-2013. She is a recipient of the Murphy and Cadogan
Fellowship Award; Ellen Battell Stoeckel Fellowship Grant, Yale/Norfolk;
and the Erzulie Veasey Johnson Painting & Drawing Award. She is
included in the public collection of the Birmingham Museum of Art,
Birmingham, Louisiana; The Contemporary Museum, Honolulu, Hawaii
and The National Museum of African Art, Smithsonian Institution,
Washington, D.C.

Erik Parker | The Word Art makes Me Nervous
Exclusive studio interview with American artist Erik Parker. Parker talks about his artistic path, process and why the word Art makes him nervous.
Erik Parker (b. 1968) is a New York-based artist.
Parker studied at the University of Texas, Austin with Peter Saul before receiving his master of fine arts from Purchase College of the State University of New York.
He was included in the first “Greater New York” show at P.S.1 in 2000.
Erik Parker is known for his precisely painted and organized worlds of chaos that exist within his brightly colored, intensely layered, highly saturated canvases. Parker's work depicts unique, fantastical scenes of biomorphic subjects and unworldly landscapes.
Parker methodically paints each composition to the optical extreme creating an intense visual experience. His work maintains a premeditated sense of order all the while suggesting an underlying madness through his use of bold and fragmented forms. Parker employs many styles in his work, from graffiti to psychedelic album covers and cartoons. Drawing from elements of American subculture, Parker creates color infused paintings that illustrate his take on the pressing issues of our time.
Parker has had one-person exhibitions at Modern Art Museum, Fort Worth; Honor Fraser Gallery Los Angeles; Patricia Low Contemporary, Gstaad, Switzerland; THE ALDRICH CONTEMPORARY ART MUSEUM, Ridgefield, CT; GALERIA JAVIER LOPEZ, Madrid, Spain; PAUL KASMIN GALLERY, New York; The Cornerhouse Gallery, Manchester England; De Appel in Amsterdam, Netherland.
Erik Parker is represented by Paul Kasmin Gallery, New York.
