Patrick Hill, Clumsy Angels, at Bortolami. Closed 2/23.

ballerinas and stripper poles + catholic vibe


christ struggling with the cross... there's even a halo.


forsaken


feels like pieces should move, like that rotation you do with your arms when you play train. clumsy angel in the background, with marble wings and glass halo.

Patrick Hill at Bortolami 2007, on anaba (late) 2/26/2008 - the glass pieces were set up to fall and smash... there was a mobile with cement and glass... he used beet juice to stain canvas.

Patrick Hill, Forming, at Bortolami - excellent show... maybe i can add more later.

nice installation shots here.


Lady Pink and Jenny Holzer, Tear ducts seem to be a grief provision, 1983, from I Am As You Will Be, at Cheim & Read.

More Jenny Holzer + Lady Pink images here.... and here's a good image of one. Ilona Granet did the lettering for Jenny. I'm not sure how it works credit-wise, who the "artist" is... the Cheim & Read show label said the piece was by Jenny Holzer and Lady Pink, the Monika Spruth Philomene Magers listing says they are by Holzer, with credit to Granet for the lettering and no credit to Pink. Lady Pink's paintings are AWESOME...

Jenny Holzer's flaming rocker. Jenny Holzer utilized by Jennifer Allora and Guillermo Calzadilla.


Marcel Broodthaers, Femur d'une Femme Francaise, 1965, from I Am As You Will Be, at Cheim & Read.


Wendy White, from The Show's So Nice, at Monya Rowe - like the edges...


Charles Searles, at GR N'Namdi Gallery.
