Season of Cambodia: A Living Arts Festival, a “special initiative of Cambodian Living Arts in partnership with Cambodia’s leading arts organizations and New York’s most vibrant cultural and academic institutions,” has many wonderful
events scheduled between now and July.
B. Wurtz’s show at
Metro Pictures features his “collected and repurposed common objects that help create his understated yet insightful found-object sculptures.”
Above and Below, the Gordon Matta-Clark show at
David Zwirner, focuses on “his activities as a filmmaker.”
The Street and The Store, at the
MoMA, “examines the beginnings of Claes Oldenburg’s extraordinary career with an in-depth look at his first two major bodies of work,” which “redefined the relationship between painting and sculpture.”
Black Cellotex, Alberto Burri’s show at
Luxembourg and Dayan, “unveils paintings never before exhibited in the United States and suggests the less explored connections between Burri, a consummate innovator and abstractionist, and the masters whose achievements in earlier centuries continue to exert a profound influence upon art.”
Ashley Bickerton and Nicolas Pol’s show at
Lehmann Maupin “presents a dialogue between two distinctive and wildly imaginative artists, born of different generations, who draw upon a similar reactive nature to construct vibrant, fantastical, and often times, otherworldly images of apocalyptic proportion.”
Kodachrome, Luigi Ghirri’s show at
Matthew Marks, “consists of 25 vintage color photographs included in Ghirri’s seminal 1978 publication and exhibition of the same title.”
