  • The Case Histories/ Responsa

    corresponding with Martin Wilner

    Saturday May 11, 2019

    Pierogi Gallery, NYC

    Making History: The Case Histories began in 2012 as an evolutionary expansion of the scope of Martin Wilner's decade-long calendar-based work process. He began to invite a wide array of subjects for a monthlong correspondence based art process wherein daily messages were translated into his daily visual art practice. Subjects to date include filmmaker Darren Aronofsky, composer John Zorn, curator Isabelle Dervaux, architects Tod Williams and Billie Tsien, the space scientists of the SETI Institue, and a wide array of visual artists and psychiatrists.

    With his background in both the arts and psychoanalysis, this process allowed for the introduction of the basic principles of psychoanalytic theory directly into the work practice. The works document the situational relationship that develops over the course of each month. The results are a nontraditional form of portraiture. Much as an MRI image of the brain represents a sagittal slice of a brain in space, these works reflect a state of mind fixed in a discrete period of time.

    Twin Stars, Ink, wood stain on paper, 40 x 40 cm, 2018

    Organized in response to our complex, divisive and critical moment in United States History, the group exhibition Hold These Truths includes works by artists who employ strategies ranging from editing and re-framing, to appropriation and culture jamming, to dismantle prevailing constructs of national identity, and observe the right to challenge the very mechanisms that exclude expression and participation.

    Included in the exhibition is a compilation of three videos/films that document some of Cannupa Hanska Luger’s work, among them Dispatch from Standing Rock #3 by Ati Maier

    Opening: Monday, November 13, 2017

    Contact: Local to Global

    November 25, 2017 – April 28, 2018

    Contact: Local to Global, like the other centennial exhibitions, highlights the engagement of artists with New Mexico, the Museum of Art with artists and collectors, and New Mexico’s engagement with the national and international arts community. Additionally the exhibition looks beyond those very literal intersections and implicates larger ideas about contact such as our engagement with the land and environment, our communities’ alignment with one another, and more broadly the implications of contact such as the discovery of the New World, and space exploration.

    THE magazine Click here to see images

    Contact: Local to Global has two interrelated components – the first of which will focus on works by artists like Bruce Nauman, Agnes Martin, Frederick Hammersley and Susan York who have lived and worked in the region, as well as artists and artworks with differing connections to New Mexico.

    A second component of more contemporary artworks directly address issues of land, location and environment and will include the site specific installation Pollination by indigenous collaborative Postcommodity, single channel videos The Placeless Place by Berlin and New York based artists Ati Maier, and Yorgo Alexopoulos’s work Everything In-Between. Alexopoulos’ work, a 4K animation with custom electronics, was shot and commissioned in New Mexico underscoring the continued relevance of the centuries-old tradition of artists making work that is a meditation on the New Mexico landscape.
