Joanne Greenbaum, Workbook, 2006, oil on canvas, 78 x 78 inches, 198.1 x 198.1 cm

D’Amelio Terras presents new paintings by gallery artist Joanne Greenbaum. Her recent canvases continue to be informed by her drawing practice but take a departure from a more formal and spare past work. Graphic formations that are broken up by painterly gestures allow different layers of meaning and visual readings to emerge. Combining multiple techniques and colors, Greenbaum explores the concept of gesture outside of its expressionistic trope. The paintings are surfaces on which to perform with paint, challenging the notion of “doneness” and “finishing”; this positioning is best manifested by the act of painting over or crossing off areas of the canvas. The system of numbers charts the chronological life of a painting and reinforces the self-referential process. She states: “In fact I make painting by building” — and with this body of work Greenbaum’s process is laid bare.

Michelle Grabner, in a review published in Flash Art, 2004 writes: “Greenbaum pines for the vagaries within the most rudimentary elements of visual language, complicating them with intuitive and emotional impulses. The result is both familiar and original but consistently self-confident”.

Joanne Greenbaum shows in London, UK with greengrassi gallery and in Basel, Switzerland with Nicolas Krupp gallery. Greenbaum’s paintings will be included in The Triumph of Painting, Abstract America at The Saatchi Gallery, London, UK in 2007. In 2008 she will have a solo museum survey at Museum Abteiberg, Monchengladbach, Germany that will travel to Haus Konstruktiv, Zurich, Switzerland.

Susanne Vielmetter Los Angeles Projects is pleased to present a solo exhibition of new work by Edgar Arceneaux. Based on an intense interest in relationships, Edgar Arceneaux’s work exploits alliteration, association, and connotation to weave a complex fabric of unconventional structures and meaning. His exploration of how culturally established relationships form conventional codes of consensus has gradually developed into an approach in which linear logic is often subverted to create an improvisational field of experimentation that opens up new possibilities of understanding.

The Alchemy of Comedy…Stupid examines the structure and nuance, the rapture and pathos of jokes. In a nine channel video installation featuring popular comedian David Alan Grier the exhibition explores an unfamiliar context of these jokes, describing the awkward, funny, painful, and sometimes devastatingly lonely moments of comedy. Inter-cut among the multiple screens are reconfigured video segments of Grier debuting poignantly difficult material, his interactions with audience members and awkward moments of anticipation or rumination. By destabilizing our familiarity with the joke and its context, Arceneaux reveals possibilities for new meaning created from an improvisational, free-flowing context of experimentation. The video installation will be accompanied by a series of new drawings expanding the relationships addressed in Grier’s performance beyond the context of comedy into auto-biographical territory.

Edgar Arceneaux has shown his drawings, sculptures, installations and films in solo exhibitions at The Kitchen, New York; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; Witte de With Museum, Rotterdam; UCLA Hammer Museum; the Studio Museum in Harlem, New York; and Montgomery Gallery, Pomona College, among others. His collaboration with Charles Gaines, entitled “Snake River” has been shown at the Lentos Kunstmuseum, Linz, Austria, and is currently on view at the REDCAT Gallery, Los Angeles. Arceneaux’s work has been included in “Uncertain States of America” at the Astrup Fearnley Museum of Art, Oslo, Bard College and the Serpentine Gallery, London; in “Tomorrowland: CalArts in Moving Pictures”, Museum of Modern Art, New York; in “The Imaginary Number”, KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin; in “The Need to Document”, Halle für Kunst e.V., Lüneburg; in “Monuments for the USA”, CCA Wattis Institute for Contemporary Arts, San Francisco; in “Double Consciousness: Black Conceptual Art Since 1970″, Contemporary Arts Museum Houston, in “Quicksand”, de Appel, Amsterdam, Netherlands; in “Upside Down: Neueingerichtete Raeume zur Gegenwart”, Ludwigforum Aachen, Germany; and in “Persoenliche Plaene”, Kunsthalle Basel, Switzerland, among others. Arceneaux was recently awarded a residency at ArtPace, San Antonio, Texas. He has been the subject of an Artforum feature by Jeffrey Kastner (Feb. 06) and his work was featured in Afterall in essays by Charles Gaines and Catrin Lorch. Arceneaux’s books “Lost Library” and “107th Street, Watts” were published in 2003 by Kunstverein Ulm, Germany and Revolver, Frankfurt, respectively. This is our third solo exhibition of Edgar Arceneaux’s work.

“Alchemy of Comedy…Stupid” was originally commissioned by Artpace San Antonio

sala rekalde presents Animated Stories, a group exhibition that gathers together the work of thirty international artists whose output investigates new strategies in animation film and the potential it has for criticality.

Animated Stories explores drawing and digital animation in relation to their artistic potential for imagining and producing stories to critically reflect on the world around us. The works shown in this exhibition have in common a special relationship with original sources such as caricature, satire, fable and allegory, used to question concepts like truth, authenticity and evidence. Moreover, parody is the strategy that situates animated film squarely between the real and the fictional so as to unveil the limits between what should or should not be said and between the appropriate and the inappropriate.

The focus of the exhibition is not an analysis of the various contemporary animation techniques employed in the works, but rather an exploration of the extent to which creative strategies are capable of assuming critical responsibilities in the face of the current predominance of mass media disinformation and the consequent discrediting of image. In this respect, animation film opens up a new line that runs parallel to documentary strategies, within a shared aim of commitment to disarticulate the politics of truth and unfrock authoritarian voices that might narrow the representational terrain.

Within a referential endeavour, the exhibition opens with a clear example of the potential animated film has for weaving magic whilst being critically incisive, in the shape of the video-installation Journey to the Moon (2003), in which the artist William Kentridge intentionally pays homage to the legacy of Georges Méliès. Through fantasy and imagination, some of the artists of Animated Stories directly mount attacks on policies that promote speculation and the devastation of our surroundings (as in the case of the works by Donna Conlon, Till Nowak, Hans Op de Beeck and Miguel Soares), while others (Kao Chung-li, Cristina Lucas and Feng Mengbo) disarticulate the politics of truth by retrieving stories withheld from History. The representation of absence, fear and exclusion (Carlos Amorales, J. Tobias Anderson, Zilla Leutenegger, Sven Pahlsson, Magnus Wallin, Sara Serrano and Eduardo Balanza) and the construction of notions such as community and subjectivity in a period of rampant cultural capitalism (Benoît Broisat, Shelley Eshkar, Paul Kaiser, Simon Faithfull, Ruth Gómez, Basim Magdy, Joshua Mosley, Yusuke Sakamoto, Martijn Veldhoen, Catharina van Eetvelde and Abigail Lang) are some of the other issues addressed.

In addition, the exhibition’s documentary space presents a selection of short films made by Catalan amateur authors who, during the seventies and eighties, used animation as a vehicle to create a critical voice of contemporary social reality. This section includes works by Jordi Tomàs and Francesc Estrada, Jan Baca and Toni Garriga, Anna Miquel and Domènec Aran and Arturo O´Neill.

This show, produced by “la Caixa” Foundation, Spain, and Le Fresnoy, studio national des arts contemporains, France, brings together some of the most recent works by 30 international artists: Carlos Amorales, J. Tobias Anderson, Lars Arrhenius, Benoît Broisat, Donna Conlon, Catharina Van Eetvelde / Abigail Lang, Shelley Eshkar/ Paul Kaiser, Kota Ezawa, Simon Faithfull, Ruth Gómez, Susanne Jirkuff, Chung-Li Kao, William Kentridge, Zilla Leutenegger, Cristina Lucas, Cecilia Lundqvist, Basim Magdy, Feng Mengbo, Joshua Mosley, Till Nowak, Hans Op de Beeck, Sven Pahlsson, Arthur de Pins, Yusuke Sakamoto, Sara Serrano / Eduardo Balanza, Miguel Soares, Sheila M. Sofian, Martin Veldhoen, Magnus Wallin and Lev Yilmaz.

Animated Stories was presented for the first time at CaixaForum, Barcelona, in June 2006 and will subsequently be shown at Le Fresnoy, studio national des arts contemporains in Tourcoing, France.

On Thursday, November 9th, Suzanne Ulrich will open a solo exhibition at the John Davis Gallery. The work will be on display through December 3rd with a reception for the artist on Saturday, November 11th from 6:00 until 8:00 p.m.

Ms. Ulrich thinks of herself as a painter, however, she has been making small cut, torn, gouache painted and pasted paper collages now exclusively since 1997. As a painting major, she was most Interested in a design course where she could play with basic shapes. These collages bring her full circle back to that interest. Even as a painter, she worked on painted stripes, large and small, canvas and paper.

The collage works have a small intimate scale. The rectangle both dominates and gives structure to the work with attention to surface detail and layering. With a compositional ordering, avoiding any illusionist references, each piece becomes a composed self-contained presence with consistent high quality and purity of vision.

This is the first show of Ms Ulrich’s work in Hudson, New York. In Boston she is represented by Barbara Krakow Gallery. In New York, both Kathryn Markel and OK Harris share her work.

Gallery hours are Thursday through Monday, 10:00 till 5:30 p.m. For further information about the gallery, the artists and upcoming exhibition, visit www.johndavisgallery.com or contact John Davis directly at 518.828.5907 or via e-mail: art@johndavisgallery.com.

The Carriage House will be closed for winter and re-open in the spring of 2007.

Resident talk:
Wednesday, Nov 1, 6:30 pm

Current apexart resident Erzen Shkololli (artist and curator, Kosovo) in conversation with New York-based artist and writer
Sabrina Gschwandtner.

Erzen Shkololli (born 1976, Pejë, Kosovë) is an artist, curator and co-founder of EXIT Contemporary Art Institute in Pejë. His art practice utilizes local rituals and folklore to draw attention to socio-political situations. Through his work, Shkololli acts as a sort of instinctive and biased anthropologist, re-enacting traditional ceremonies, while insinuating contemporary symbols and disillusion. This interplay of past and present typifies a certain generation of art practice throughout the Balkans, locating Shkololli within this broad cultural context. Shkololli has curated numerous international exhibitions of contemporary art in addition to programs and exhibitions at EXIT Contemporary Art Institute. He is currently working on a project featuring the work of artists from Israel, Palestine and the region of ex- Yugoslavia, which will be presented at the Israeli Centre for Digital Art, Holon, Israel in 2007.

Sabrina Gschwandtner is an artist who works with film, video and textiles. After studying film with Vlada Petric at Harvard University, and video with VALIE EXPORT at the Sommerakademie fur Bildende Kunst, Sabrina received her BA in art/semiotics from Brown University. She is currently pursuing an MFA at Bard College. In 2002, Sabrina founded KnitKnit magazine, dedicated to the intersection of fine art and handcraft. She has organized numerous exhibitions and events around themes and issues raised by the publication. She is currently writing a book on people doing interesting things in knitting; Stewart, Tabori and Chang will publish the book in fall 2007.

What is fact? What is fiction?
Fiction non Fiction Gets Real!

Sunday, October 22
What is fact? What is fiction? In an age of sophisticated, mediated digital images, we can’t help but become more easily deceived, as well as more suspicious of representations of reality. Does an image show reality or create it? And how does this matter - do representations of reality enhance our survival instinct, reinforce social norms, relieve anti-social fantasies, imagine better worlds, or do they simply serve as entertainment?

These questions will be addressed by professionals in such diverse fields as psychology, computer interface design and cultural theory in a Roundtable at the Surrey Art Gallery as part of the Fiction non Fiction Gets Real! event on Sunday, October 22, 2pm. Fiction non Fiction exhibiting artists will be on hand to respond, and time will be reserved for audience participation in the conversation. The Roundtable will be preceded by a guided tour of the exhibition with Surrey Art Gallery Curator, Liane Davison at 1pm, and will be followed by a reception to 4:30pm. Admission is free.

The idea of reality as a construction, complicated by digital culture, is the underlying subject of the exhibition Fiction non Fiction. The artworks explore the representation of reality - of time, people, places, and events, in ways that are persuasive, provocative, or amusing. Fiction non Fiction features works by Canadian artists David Carter, Adad Hannah, David Hoffos, Jane Irwin, Kelly Mark, and Jeremy Turner. The exhibition continues to November 5.

Surrey Art Gallery is located at 13750 - 88 Avenue, 1 block east of King George Hwy. in Bear Creek Park. Phone: 604-501-5566 or www.arts.surrey.ca.

Pari Nadimi Gallery is pleased to announce a solo exhibitin by internationally renown collaborative artists Botto & Bruno.

Botto & Bruno have been investigating the behaviours of teenagers who live in the immense suburbs of our planet, their revolts, their wishes and their dreams. The exhibition at Pari Nadimi Gallery consits of a video installtion, very large photographs and drawings. The video titled The Fall, shows two suburban children who keep on playing despite their fall onto a pile of garbage left over from the morning market. They seem to be holding on their dreams, hopes and freedom without being aware of their surroundings. The video has a soundtrack that becomes a fundamental part of the work as it follows and establishes the rhythm of the images. It is shown on a monitor installed on a floor covered by photographic works and a fanzine made out of texts and images taken from daily newspapers and magazines containing stories of childhood and music..

The photographs are printed on pvc with collage technique and with no use of computer. By contrast with the video, in these photographs the children have become adults but surrounded by all those elements which remind them of their childhood. The large drawings are also printed on pvc. in which, besides human figures, are present: electrical wires, electricity posts that altogether form a landscape with only essential elements. The architectural elements, in these drawings, seem to disappear and all is left are manholes, electricity poles, walls, steep grounds, as if architecture has become a disturbing element.

Botto & Bruno’s video installations and photo based works have been shown at 49th Venice Biennale curated by Harald Szeemann. Their recent (2006) and up coming shows includs: Natura e Metamorfosi, Urban Planning Exhibition Center, Shanghai, China, Natura e Metamorfosi, Beijing Creative Art Center, Beijing, China, Walking in the empty spaces, site specifc public art, Stazione metropolitana piazzale Augusto, Napoli, Italy,Kids riot, curated by Stefano Pezzato, il Centro d’art contempoaranea Luigi Pecci, Prato (Toscana), italy, Intramoenia extra art, curated by Achille Bonito Oliva and Giusy Caroppo, Rocca Sforzesca, Manfredonia, Puglia, Italy, Vis a vis – Collezioni si incontrano, curated by di V.Guadagnini and L.Pratesi, Centro Arti visive la Pescheria, Pesaro, Italy, Sharing passion,geografie della contemporaneità, Palazzo della Fortuna, Turin,Italy, Metropolitanscape, Paesaggi urbani nell’arte contemporanea, curated by M.Capua, L.Mattarella and G.Iovane, Palazzo Cavour,Torino,Italy, Artesto,Connect to Art, curated by L.

APOCALYPSO FACTO: NEW WORKS BY ROBBIE CONAL

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 26, 2006
THROUGH SATURDAY NOVEMBER 18, 2006
OPENING RECEPTION THURSDAY, OCTOBER 26 FROM 7 TO 10 P.M. MUSIC BY VERY SPECIAL GUESTS

Track 16 Gallery is pleased to present APOCALYPSO FACTO: New works by Robbie Conal. The exhibition runs from Thursday, October 26, through Saturday, November 18, with an opening reception on Thursday, October 26, from 7 to 10 P.M.

Though Conal is best known for his bitingly satirical depictions of U.S. political figures of note, accompanied by punning critical text, his most recent work strips them to the bone, leaving his art wordless, if not speechless. Conal has consistently confronted us with his political fervor, his unrelenting desire to express and dissent, and his biting humor—the qualities that we expect when we see his latest posters plastered on unsuspecting artifacts like mailboxes, underpasses, and construction site walls. Playful, but “dead” serious, these recent works, show us a different side of Conal’s image database.

In the tradition of Hans Holbein the Younger’s, “Dance of Death” series of etchings (referencing the Black Plague) and Jose Guadalupe Posada’s, “Calaveras”, Conal has come up with a macabre metaphor for the mindset of the crusader/purveyors of the so-called, “Permanent War on Terror” and what he calls, “its ideological twin-spin-sister, Operation Worldwide Democracy (whether the World wants it or not).” Members of the Bush Administration gleefully rattle their own and each other’s bones, dancing the “APOCALYPSO FACTO”: reveling in their messianic hubris.

But what does baseball have to do with it?

A life-long baseball fan (who knew?), Conal has also taken his scalpel to “The American Pastime,” itself. Positing its present state as a measure of the pervasiveness of the pressure our cultural economy puts on us, as Conal says, “ to win by any means available.” While exhibiting his appreciation for the physical skill and effort of great ballplayers, Conal’s grinning glitter-skulled, skeleton pitchers deliver his version of “chin music” with a strenuous élan. Perhaps warning us that even our “play” has been made vulnerable to corruption.

Conal is an Adjunct Professor of Painting & Drawing at the University of Southern California‘s Roski School of Fine Arts. He was a participant in the www.droppingknowledge.org “Table of Free Voices” event in East Berlin on Sept. 9th, 2006. His postering raids have been featured in numerous publications, including Time, Newsweek, the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, as well as CBS ‘s This Morning, and Charlie Rose. He was the subject of the 1992 documentary Post No Bills. He has also written two books, Art Attack: The Midnight Politics Of A Guerrilla Artist and Artburn, a collection of his work published in the alternative newspaper L.A. Weekly. He has been awarded grants by the National Endowment for the Arts, The City of Los Angeles (“COLA” grant), and the Getty Trust. For more information visit our website at www.track16.com. Shown concurrently with Forgotten Faces: Portraits without Pedigree or Your Picture Here: Pictures from Purgatory, Selections from the Roger Handy Collection, curated by Jeffrey Vallance.
