They Paint Horses Don't They?
Alex Hubbard Bent Paintings (Why Horses Paint)
Galerie Eva Presenhuber
Berlin
November 2, 2012 - January 19, 2013
Galerie Eva Presenhuber is very pleased to be opening its exhibition space in the Löwenbräu Complex with BENT PAINTINGS (WHY HORSES PAINT), an exhibition of new work by American artist Alex Hubbard.
In his first solo show at the gallery, the New York based artist presents his “Bent Paintings” and a video work. The sculptural character of the nine “Bent Paintings” breaks with conventions of classical painting, the geometrical two- dimensionality of traditional picture formats giving way to bent structures, some of them free-standing sculptures totally emancipated from the wall. As a continuation of his “Trash Paintings,” to which plastic objects are attached in the style of a material assemblage, both the support and the applied plastic objects are subsequently cast in urethane. While this collage of different trashy objects resembles a staged presentation of the flotsam and jetsam of civilization, they also seem to be dancing, arranged in a secret choreography, the movement of its individual items frozen. All “Bent Paintings” are based on the same painting, which is nine times molded and cast.

The Ripest Fruit, Art
It's Winter here in NYC, which means it's quite cold. Most fruits aren't in season anymore, but there's still some proverbial fruit on the tree. Check out No Fruit at the Root in Beijing. This show is set out as a maze that moves between dark and light spaces, and through three works that focus the viewer’s gaze so intensely on texture and surface detail that the subjects and sculptures themselves are effaced. The effect is not so much disorientating as displacing. No Fruit at the Root is on view until Jan 28, 2013 at Beijing Commune. Beijing Commune, 798 Art District No.4 Jiuxianqiao Road, Chaoyang District, 100015
