Anton Zolotov Solo Exhibition
.
Hannah Barry Gallery - Peckham location
A chronicler of contemporary American experience, Anton Zolotov’s latest paintings are provocative and lyrical collisions of images, objects, forms and ideas.
Zolotov is a Russian-American artist living in New York, and his work condenses the familiar tumult of city lifeinto stable, austere geometrical figures.
The integration of found and trash objects allied to the appropriation of abstract, ideal forms challenges the artificial separation of art from life. Equal inspiration is here taken from the formal innovations of early modernism and the aesthetics of throwaway consumerism. The effect is a precarious balance, a seductive combination of the ideal and the mundane thatreflects our own impure experience of the world.Several of the assemblage paintings have the flavour of a palimpsest, with the detritus of post-industrial urban existence simultaneously obscured and preserved by the paint that glues it to the canvas. The ephemeral is thus conserved in paint, a neat twist on the painter’sconventional efforts to immortalise.The artist has expressed his determination to be “an idealist and a storyteller at the sametime”, and these works reflect the complexity of his, and our own, experience of the world around us.

Thomas Demand
23 March - 22 April
In the incredible mushroom-shaped sculpture of a building, known as the Commercial Travellers' Association Club, you'll find Berlin-based artist Thomas Demand's latest project for the 25th Kaldor Public Art Program.
Perhaps one of the most intriguingly simplistic yet notable works in Australia currently.

Milkmade
.
We are pleased to announce that Champ is now being stocked in Venice Beach, California at store Milkmade.
Their brand list is more than impressive. Stocking the likes of Aesop, Bedwin and the Heartbreakers, Common Projects and WoodWood - we feel like we fit right in.
They describe their store as ''thoughtfully edited'' and we agree.
It's easy to shop online at Milkmade (their website is painstakingly effective, simple and easy to use, whilst being aesthetically pleasing), but why not visit them?

ELAD LASSRY PERFORMANCE AND EXHIBITION
AT DAVID KORDANSKY GALLERY
.
Elad Lassry
March 23 –– May 26, 2012
Opening reception: Friday, March 23, 6:00––9:00pm
Elad Lassry: Untitled (Presence 2005)
A performance work featuring members of the New York City Ballet
March 2, 2012
Hayworth Theatre, Los Angeles
.
David Kordansky Gallery is very pleased to announce its second exhibition of new work by Elad Lassry, opening March 23 and open through May 26, 2012. The show will reflect an expansive sense of the picture as an ontological category, one in which a viewer's customary associations with familiar forms are exposed to physical and perceptual paradoxes. Associated with this exhibition, Elad Lassry will premiere a performance work featuring members of the New York City Ballet, Untitled (Presence 2005), on March 2, 2012 at the Hayworth Theatre in Los Angeles.
Lassry has increasingly looked to diverse media––including drawing, sculpture, and performance––to test current possibilities for engagement with pictures. In each case, the ability to recognize a given subject presents itself as a faculty on the verge of failure, a dissonant constellation of formal characteristics and competing cultural histories. By incorporating objects and immersive situations into his practice, Lassry blurs the boundary between the tangible and cognitive experiences of a picture. As such, his work is indicative of the way in which the virtual defines contemporary culture, not merely on a technological level, but as an embodied mode of perception. Tuesday, February 28, 2012
