Loren Munk: Location, Location, Location/Mapping the New York Art World
Lesley Heller Workspace, 54 Orchard Street, New York, NY 10002, Sept. 7-Oct. 16, 2011. Loren Munk's oil paintings are maps of time periods, artists' studios, galleries, alternative spaces during intensive periods of art historical importance in New York City over the past 60+ years. Munk also writes art criticism for The Brooklyn Rail and has his own Rough Cuts in which he rides around to art shows in galleries and museums and documents them through film. Also in attendance one of the artists in his map paintings, Ron Gorchov. To me, the paintings allude to the Southern folk artist, Howard Finster (1916-2001) although Munk has taken his painting into a more contemporary abstract direction with the colorful street maps underlying the blocks of information.

iGuzzini illuminates thirty years of architectural projects by Renzo Piano
In collaboration with Fondazione Renzo Piano, the Gagosian Gallery of New York presents Fragments, an exhibition of more than thirty years of architectural projects by the Renzo Piano Building Workshop. To showcase its long standing relationship with the famous Italian architect, iGuzzini will provide technical support to the event. The projects will be illuminated by Le Perroquet spotlights, design Piano Design.
The purpose of this exhibition is to educate and broaden the knowledge of architecture with a selection of projects by architects from the Renzo Piano Building Workshop. The exhibition consists of 24 monographic tables, each telling a story for the 24 different projects through models, drawings, photos and videos. The atmosphere of the exhibition will be somewhere between a reading room in a library, a classroom in a school and a gallery in a natural history museum, wrote Renzo Piano to Adreas Dracopoulos, Co-President of the Stavros Niarchos Foundation which funded the exhibition at the beginning of the design process.
Among the projects showcased are Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; The Menil Collection, Houston; Kansai International Airport, Osaka; Fondation Beyeler, Basel; Jean-Marie Tjibaou Cultural Centerm Noumèa, New Caledonia; The New York Times Building, New York; Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center, Athens; and the Whitney Museum's new building in downtown Manhattan.

Shannon Ebner's Giant Ampersand - Washington/Centinela (long)
The Hammer Museum Opens Shannon Ebner an exhibition on view July 16, 2011 -- October 9, 2011.
Los Angeles-based artist Shannon Ebner's work investigates the correlations between photography and language. Informed by various modes of writing—including poetry, experimental writing, and political speech—Ebner constructs images in the studio and the landscape. She builds letters and phrases out of vernacular materials such as cardboard, wood, and cinder blocks, calling attention to the ways language and imagery are constructed. For her Hammer Project, she will exhibit a portion of an on-going project called The Electric Comma, which began as a poem she wrote of the same name about various conditions of the photographic, such as its alleged static nature and its vocation of describing events of the past. The poem, or as Ebner refers to it, the photographic sentence, seeks to enliven the image by subjecting it to various challenges that ask the photograph to perform outside its usual function of reporting or depicting events, people, places, and things of our time.
n addition to the presentation at the Hammer, works from The Electric Comma are simultaneously on display at LAXART in Culver City and in Venice, Italy as part of the 54th Venice Biennale. Portions of The Electric Comma have been made into works that are exhibited in all three locations. At the Hammer, Ebner will present two multi-panel large photographic works in Gallery 6 on the courtyard level, and the project will continue outside the gallery with a new piece made specifically for the light boxes leading to the Billy Wilder Theater. The light box work will spell out the word asterisk, an element of language and design that has long been featured in the artist's work, and the boxes will be on a timed lighting sequence so that particular letters and groupings of letters will continuously flash, suggestive of a signal or mechanism for sending and receiving information. In addition to photographs and a video on view at LAXART, Ebner will present an outdoor sculpture in an empty lot in Culver City. An 8-foot tall plywood ampersand titled 'and, per se and,' Ebner considers the form and meaning of the ampersand to signify the continual construction and/or incompleteness of meaning between the various aspects of the project and their diverse locations. The Hammer's presentation is organized by Anne Ellegood, Hammer senior curator.
LAXART is located at 2640 S. La Cienega. The outdoor sculpture is located at the northwest corner of Washington Boulevard at Centinela Avenue.
Shannon Ebner was born in Englewood, New Jersey in 1971 and lives and works in Los Angeles. She earned her BA from Bard College in 1993 and her MFA from Yale University in 2000 and she currently teaches at USC's Roski School of Fine Arts. Solo exhibitions include kaufmann repetto, Milan (2010); Altman Siegel, San Francisco (2010); Wallspace, New York (2009, 2007, 2005); P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center, Long Island City (2007). Selected group exhibitions include The Spectacular of Vernacular, Walker Art Center, Minneapolis (2011); the 6th Berlin Biennale for Contemporary Art, Berlin (2010); Saints and Sinners, The Rose Art Museum, Waltham (2009); The 2008 Whitney Biennial, The Whitney Museum of American Art, New York (2008); Learn to Read, Tate Modern, London (2007); Uncertain States of America: American Art in the 3rd Millennium, Serpentine Gallery, London (2006); The California Biennial, Orange County Museum of Art, Newport Beach (2006); The Plain of Heaven, Creative Time, New York (2005); and Monuments for the USA, CCA Wattis Institute, San Francisco. Ebner is also participating in the 2011 Venice Biennale this summer. This will be Ebner's first museum solo show on the West Coast.
Mike Cockrill Drawn From Life 2004 2019 at MOSAIC ARTSPACE
James Kalm ventures out to Hunters Point, Long Island City, Queens for a spontaneous strolling conversation and guided tour of Mike Cockrill’s pop-up show “Draw From Life” at the Mosaic ArtSpace. This program features a selection of paintings, drawn from over fifteen years of work, and charts the transitional evolution of the artist’s work from his 1960s illustrator inspired erotic pastiches, to his more recent exploration of collage and abstraction. Mike Cockrill discusses his own past beginning with his student years at the Philadelphia Academy of Art through his introduction into the East Village, through the Williamsburg scene, till now and exhibitions in Los Angeles. A musical introduction is provided by D.D. King. This program was recorded July 26, 2019.

Artist: Yunhee Min
Exhibition Title: Recent Paintings
Exhibition Dates: May 26 - July 1, 2016
Gallery Link:
AMERINGER | McENERY | YOHE is pleased to announce an exhibition of recent paintings, “movements,” by Yunhee Min. The exhibition will open on 26 May and will remain on view through 1 July 2016. A public reception for the artist will be held on 26 May from 6:00 to 8:00 PM.
Yunhee Min’s latest abstractions continue her investigation into the fluidity and expansiveness of perceived movement. Through gestures and layers of color, from soft pastels to glowing iridescents, Min’s paintings resist static time and interpretation. Rather, the paintings unfold in time suggesting spatial and atmospheric nuances that are distant from language.
The immediacy of color is palpable in Min’s paintings. In addition to color’s associative qualities, for Min, color and pigment are material substances that take on a vitality in their relation to one another. Particular to these paintings is an exploration of the dynamic state of liquidity where wet pigments comingle and the surfaces emerge as they solidify. Cumulative and wavering, these layers of color in her paintings affect our perceptual body and are felt through experience.
Accordingly, Min’s compositions invite intimate engagement. Standing vertically, subtly undulated or curved, Min’s forms touch, intermingle and overlap engendering translucency and depth that suggest endless exchanges between space and motion.
Evoking sensations of movement both physical and imagined, Min’s paintings conjure states of slowness and immersive experience. Confronting us with their penetrating luminescence, Min’s works offer us contemplative moments of active and unexpected viewing.
YUNHEE MIN received her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA in 1991 and studied with Professor Günther Uecker at Kunstakademie in Düsseldorf, Germany in 1994. Min received a Master in Design Studies from the Graduate School of Design at Harvard University in 2008.
Min has had numerous solo exhibitions both nationally and internationally, which include “Movements,” Susanne Vielmetter Los Angeles Projects, Culver City, CA; “For Instance,” Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, CA; “Above and Beyond,” Pasadena Museum of Contemporary Art, CA; “Distance is like the future, Circa Series,” Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, CA; “Fading Wild,” Finesilver Gallery, San Antonio, TX; “One foot in front of the other,” Or Gallery, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada; and “Fast times,” ACME., Los Angeles, CA, among others.
Recent group exhibitions include “Elemental | Seeing the Light,” Stuart Haaga Gallery, Descanso Gardens, Los Angeles, CA; “Speed Space,” Tif Sigfrids, curated by Alexandra Gaty, Los Angeles, CA; “Spectra,” San Diego State University Downtown Gallery, San Diego, CA; “Lost line,” Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles, CA; “ABCyz,” Launch Exhibition, Silvershed, New York, NY; “The Trans-Aestheticization of Daily Life,” University of California, Riverside Sweeney Gallery, Riverside, CA; “Too much love,” Angles Gallery, Curated by Amy Adler, Los Angeles, CA; “Around About Abstraction,” Weatherspoon Art Museum, Greensboro, NC; “Wall Painting,” University of Texas at San Antonio, San Antonio, TX; “Snap Shot,” UCLA Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, CA (Traveled to Museum of Contemporary Art, North Miami, FL); “Fresh,” Altoids Curiously Strong Collection, New Museum, NY; “KOREAMERICAKOREA,” Sonje Museum of Contemporary Art, Seoul, Korea; and “Rundgang,” Kunstakademie Düsseldorf, Düsseldorf, Germany.
Her work may be found in the public collections of The UCLA Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, CA; The Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles, CA; and Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, La Jolla, CA.
Min is an Associate Professor at the University of California Riverside, Riverside, CA. Prior she has taught at Emily Carr University of Art + Design, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada; School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, MA; and the University of California, San Diego, San Diego, CA, among other prominent universities.

Fairytale Sculpture by the Sea
This incredible sculpture garden is installed along the seaside in The Hague, Netherlands. I shot this in May 2012, the work had just been reinstalled the month before after a renovation.
From The Hague website:
The sculpture garden called 'SprookjesBeelden aan Zee' ('Fairytale Sculptures by the Sea') boasts an area specially designed for the 23 cartoon like sculptures by American sculptor Tom Otterness. The objects on display include three large and 20 smaller sculptures and include the 12-metre tall 'Herring Eater', 'Crying Giant', 'Hans Brinker' and 'Hansel and Gretel'. Admission to the sculpture garden is free and it is open day and night.
The sculpture garden is part of the Museum Beelden aan Zee, which is dedicated to sculpture. The imaginative exhibition had been on display since 2004 but was removed in 2009 during a project to redesign the Scheveningen Boulevard. They were put back into place in April 2012.
Tom Otterness's curious sculptures, known from various large sculpture projects in the United States, have been cast in bronze and finished with a glossy patina 'skin'. World-famous fairytales are the subjects of many of his sculptures. Some of the works on display relate to the surroundings. Because of the humorous slant, the work of the sculptor appeals to young and old.
Otterness is critical of the social structure, which he expresses in some of his works. His work became well known because the sculptures are mainly displayed in subway stations and famous buildings. His best-known creation, 'The Real World', is a garden project with human and animal figures in Battery Park in New York.

BURNSOO SONG AT GARBOUSHIAN GALLERY
Film by Eric Minh Swenson.
Garboushian Gallery is pleased to present work by acclaimed Korean artist BurnSoo Song in his inaugural exhibition with the gallery. Highly esteemed internationally, Song's visual work has been the focus of several prominent museum exhibitions in both France and Korea, and we are thrilled to be showcasing his work for the first time in the United States, an exhibition for which the artist will be present. Song has been called a transcendentalist in the passage of time and space, a visceral man of nature attuned to the extravagant forces of the universe. Working in a wide variety of materials including acrylic coloring on Korean handmade Mulberry paper, lithography, sculpture, graphite and large-scale tapestries, Song exemplifies the idea of the artist as maverick thinker, extending boundaries both conceptually and stylistically, utilizing unconventional materials in the service of a bold and provocative vision.
Drawing largely on natural imagery, Song dismantles the familiar representation of the thorn, excising the image from its metaphorical meaning, pursuing it instead as a purely physical and literal object. It is this objectness, how a thing can exist in space and time, necessarily burdened with its own inherent shadows, nuances and obvious distinctions, that both captivates and motivates Song. The thorn is essentially stripped of its physical properties, transforming beyond the meanings that have come to be attached to it, i.e. religious and or spiritual connotations. These images are extrapolated from their own shadows, the underpinnings, the implied gestures that inform these objects as unique in and of themselves, separate from, yet completely connected to the artist's essential impulse to create them at all.
BURNSOO SONG - The Creations of Energy (Grey)
Burnsoo Song was born (1943) in Gyeryongmyun, Gong-Ju, Chung-Nam, Korea, and has exhibited his work widely both nationally and internationally. His work is included in many notable collections including the TOTAL Museum of Contemporary Art, Seoul, National Museum of Contemporary Art, Seoul, National Museum of Budapest, Hungary, National theatre of Jangchung-dong, Seoul Korea, KTX Yongsan Station, Seoul, Embassy of Korea, Kuwait, Lucky Goldstar Metal Reasearch Institute, YongIn Korea, Seoul City Museum of Art, the Busan City Museum of Art. Exhibiting since the early 1960's Song is currently Emeritus Professor of Fine Art College of Hong-ik University, Seoul, Korea. Song has also exhibited widely throughout Europe, and has been the recipient of many prestigious awards including the On the Occasion of the 1000th anniversary of the foundation of the Hungarian State (First Golden Fleece Prize, The Hungarian Cultural Heritage Budapest, Hungary), and The Lausanne Beijing-International Tapestry Art Biennale (Honor Grand Prize, Beijing China).

Christopher Wool artwork vandal is painting owner's own son
The alleged vandal who travelled almost 10,000 miles to slash a £2.16million ($3 million) piece of art at a US gallery has been revealed as the son of the painting's owner.
Officials in Colorado have charged Nicholas Morley, 40, with 'felony criminal mischief' after the untitled Christopher Wool painting belonging to father Harold, 74, was cut twice.
A man was caught on camera entering the Opera Gallery in Aspen, Colorado, wearing sunglasses and a cap on May 1, 2017, and was seen damaging the piece with a razor before fleeing the scene.
A warrant for Morley's arrest has now been issued by a district court judge in the area following an 11-month investigation.
According to US legal documents, Harold initially told police the painting, named Untitled 2004, was co-owned owned by his son via investment company Fallowfield Ltd, although he later claimed his son only helped with contracts at the firm and did not own the artwork.
Aspen Police claim Morley carried out the vandalism as part of a marathon journey from the UK, flying from London to Denver via Minneapolis under a false name, hiring a car to drive to Aspen, and then returning to Britain within just three days.
Morley, who ran the London Marathon just two days before being charged, was previously convicted over the deaths of an elderly couple in Macedonia in 2007 after a crash in his Porsche 911 during the Gumball 3000 Rally race.
He received a two-year suspended sentence for 'endangering traffic leading to death' and was detained for 40 days before being released back to Britain.
His father Harold, a dentist turned property developer, is also a rally car fan and is known as one of the oldest drivers in the sport in Barbados where he lives.
Harold, known as ‘Doc’, moved to the Caribbean 17 years ago and married a former beauty queen.
The Aspen Times reports Harold sent a letter to the gallery saying the painting could be 'easily restored' and he would not be pursuing an insurance claim.
'It was only a minor incident,' he said, according to the affidavit.
'In the same vein the police investigation should be calmed down and they be quickly informed that Fallowfield are very relaxed about the whole affair since Wool is an appreciating asset and the repairs will be all but invisible,' he added.
In a letter to Opera Gallery, he requested that staff 'play the whole affair down as over enthusiastic reporting,' the affidavit states.
'We could even put it up for sale now for $3.5m on the basis it is 'famous,'' Harold Morley wrote, according to the affidavit.
'Since we are not making an insurance claim there is no reason why the recollection of the incident should not be eliminated as quickly as possible from staff and public.'
The documents also state he told the gallery there was 'no reason' why the incident could not be 'eliminated as quickly as possible from staff and public recollection'.
Surveillance footage from the gallery shows a man in black jeans, a black jacket, a hat, sunglasses and a full beard, entering the building and propping the door open.
Within a few seconds, he rushed over to the Christopher Wool painting and cut it twice. A gallery employee appears but the slasher rushed for the door, grabbing the prop on the way out.
Untitled 2004 was the sole item being sold on consignment at the time, listed for sale at $2.95 million.
Nicholas Morley was charged, in his absence, with felony criminal mischief on Wednesday, for damage worth between $1,000 and $5,000 because it cost less than $2,500 to repair the multi million dollar painting.
'He is the person charged with directly damaging this painting,' Aspen prosecutor Don Nottingham said Wednesday night.
Aspen Police claim Morley flew to Minneapolis under the name 'Nikola Marley' but used his real passport while going through immigration.
He then took an internal flight to Denver where he rented a car from Alamo and drover off.
On May 4, 2017, he returned the vehicle and had driven it 246 miles according to the firm's records.
However, a one way trip to Aspen from Denver is around 223 miles, with police not commenting on the discrepancy and whether any alternative transport was used.
Police say Morley arrived in Denver and paid for the car and a night at a hotel using his Bulgarian wife Aleksandra Penkova’s credit card.
Authorities also say Morley told them he did not recognise the vandal in the footage and claimed he was not in the US at the time and had last been there three months e
Canapé: April 2015
Ana Tijoux
Born to Chilean parents in political exile in France, Ana Tijoux returned to Chile in the 80s where she joined to the growing Hip Hop scene. On tour in the US, the rapper played two venues in New York in the spring. Canapé caught her at Rough Trade in Brooklyn.
Jean Michel Basquiat : The Unknown Notebooks
In 1985 a 25 year old artist of Haitian and Puerto Rican descent appeared on the cover of the New York Times Magazine. 3 years later, he was dead. Jean—Michel Basquiat embodied a new wave of visual art in New York with all its contradictions. The exhibit Jean Michel Basquiat: The Unknown Notebooks at the Brooklyn Museum offers some insight into his process.
IAM at Columbia University
Key pioneers of Hip Hop in France are IAM. But little known are the origins of the band in New York City, the mecca of Hip Hop. The rappers recently visited La Maison Française at Columbia University. Canapé was there to capture their first academic symposium.
Homage to Judith Malina
One of the most influential voices in experimental theater of the 20th century is Judith Malina. In April 2015 she died at age 88. CANAPE salutes the revolutionary artist by sharing an interview produced some years ago. (Taped: 04/22/15)
Since 1996, the Cultural Services of the French Embassy and CUNY TV have produced together one of the few French programs to appear on American television: Canapé.
Stylish and modern, Canapé is the only program entirely devoted to French cultural events in New York and the United States. This monthly half-hour show includes film releases, book translations, exhibitions, festivals, ballets, concerts and theater productions.
Canapé is seen on the third Thursday of the month in a French-only version and repeated the fourth Thursday of the month in an English-subtitled version.
