A trace of a Trace of a Trace
February 24, 2006- April 15, 2006
526 W 24th St
Perry Rubenstein Gallery is pleased to present The
Trace of a Trace of a Trace, an exploration of painting. The exhibition takes as its
starting point the mediated history of painting; its sublime effects on art today; and
how these artists, for the most part, remove the authorial signifier so not interfere
with the autonomy of the painting as object. In case of
Daan van Golden, Vija
Celmins and
Gerhard Richter, the source material used include both cultural icons or
signifiers as well as the vernacular in order to blur the aesthetic boundaries that are
prevalent in the hierarchy of iconography. Many of the works in the show are so
evidently slow in their representation to the image that they purposely call upon the
viewer to make a patient perceptual movement back and forth within the represented
space. The exhibition also aims to continue to go through the revolving door of the
history of painting and representation, and more importantly probe recent discussion
surrounding the image of representation rather than the exhaustive approach of the
representation of image.
