Jomar Statkun Exhibition
Garis & Hahn
This event has ended.
An exhibition of Jomar Statkun’s complete work to date. The collection will be installed in the gallery’s downstairs space, leaving the upstairs empty until work is introduced through weekly “decorations” that will slowly transform the main space. Through participation and performance, visitors will be invited to the basement “Public Viewing Room” to interact with the artist as well as look at, examine, and handle the works of art.

“Banal Zone”
(Reception: Tuesday, February 11th from 6 – 8 PM)
Mary Garis and Sophie Hahn from Garis & Hahn gallery, with Lynda Erickson, curate a show from a series of paintings based on Richard Prince’s disputed “Canal Zone” series, and other Prince related subject matter, commissioned by Jomar Statkun from a Chinese painting factory. The action is meant to explore issues of appropriation, outsourcing and contemporary artist practices, which can mean an artist never physically touches their work.
