Danziger Projects Gallery -> Andy Warhol: Polaroids of Sports Champions, Greatness

"Three Stars or more" "★★★"

Review of Danziger Projects Gallery -> Andy Warhol: Greatness, Polaroids of Sports Champions:

Andy Warhol... do I have to say more? (just kidding) This show is an interesting example of the relativity of art. Now I'm not sure where you stand on Warhol. I'm not even sure where I stand on Warhol, but we can agree that he isn't known for his Polaroids and the fact that these are selling for $10,000.00 or more is why this show gets interesting. Furthermore this show is interesting because of what Polaroids are and that an "instant picture" can gain worth due to fame and popularity. Maybe that is why Warhol took Polaroids? We will never know. what I am sure of is that he would be pleased that these Polaroids are being displayed in the fall of 2009! These Polaroids are both unique and cannot be reproduced. The intrigue of these celebrities are so alluring and seductive that I absolutely must have one! Say goodbye to my kids college savings! It was quite a novelty to see the original Polaroids in person, but be warned the pictures themselves are very small and only hold conceptual social value. Rare celebrity art like this will defiantly impress anyone who visits your house! If you are in the area you should see check it out.

Mike Weiss Gallery -> Maya Gold: Wake, NYC exhibit

"★★★★★"

Review of Mike Weiss Gallery -> Maya Gold: Wake

I could not find a darn thing wrong with this show! I think my hope in the art world is being renewed! The fact that a gallery in Chelsea would pick up a quirky art show like this in NYC is fantastic! Just like it says in the press release the paintings "offer several meanings at once". The paintings are an over head view of people from a perpendicular angle looking straight down on top of the subject. This angle is so unique and even somewhat uncomfortable that I would have liked the works even if they were ugly! Gold uses this approach to her painting in tandem with gloomy overcast weather colors that are wonderfully atmospheric and at the same time dreamy. All this gives the viewer a bit of spectral ethereal manifestation within the painting. The fact that these contemporary paintings are large also draws the viewer in. I look forward to more exhibits from Maya Gold in New York City. Even though this is a five star show I'm not sure if you really need to experience the paintings in person, but you definitely have to check out the website at the bottom of the press release!

Tyler Rollins Gallery-> Sopheap Pich: The Pulse Within Solo show

"★★★★★"

Review of Tyler Rollins -> Sopheap Pich: The Pulse Within Solo show

I was delighted to hear that a Cambodian artist was going to be exhibiting in
NYC so I rushed over to the Tyler Rollins Fine Art Gallery with high expectations! It is always, always, always very refreshing to see art that has organically come out of different cultures especially ones that we don't get exposed to very often. Also its nice when art is not steeped and buried by art history and can be approached without an MFA. This is exactly why Pich's work is so exciting for me. Deeply symbolic without loosing its message or emotion. This show is a success! The Pulse Within even though it is a small show is very engrossing. Pich is going to be remembered as a great artist. I really recommend reading the press release section below because we get a real insight into Pich's creative reasoning and creative process. Even without the press release the same message gets conveyed which is very hard with sculpture. ADD THIS ART SHOW TO YOUR LIST.
