NYAB Event - Martin Roth "Untitled (Persian Rugs)"

Martin Roth "Untitled (Persian Rugs)"

Louis B. James Gallery

This event has ended.

Louis B. James presents its inaugural LBJ PROJECT with Martin Roth’s Untitled (Persian Rugs). Existing between subject and object, Roth’s rugs challenge the viewer’s take on the natural world. The work exists as a living object that requires dedication and care. They are situations created to exist in a slow, evolving time that inevitably takes on a life of their own. Roth’s Persian rugs, brought alive through the cultivation of grass, serve as a living version of the gardens their images often represent. Roth sees himself as “an interventionist who tries to alter the reality of his surroundings.”
