  <Description><![CDATA[Steven Kasher Gallery presents the recently discovered work of Vivian Maier. Vivian Maier features over 40 black and white prints.  Maier, whose day job was as a nanny, took over 100,000 distinctive street photographs, mostly in New York City and Chicago, yet showed the results to no one. This is a startling posthumous discovery of a major photographer, ranking with those of E. J. Bellocq and Mike Disfarmer. The exhibition is accompanied by a publication: Vivian Maier: Street Photographer (powerHouse Books, 2011), foreword by Geoff Dyer. A concurrent exhibition of Maier’s work is being mounted at Howard Greenberg Gallery, December 15, 2011 through January 28, 2012.

What makes Maier unique is that her pictures were made for no one, not even herself. They weren't printed at all. They are pure witness. She records but never plays back. Her pictures have no intention but to represent what her curiosity and her feelings demand. That demand must have been pressing indeed, to generate so much meticulous work.

The recent discovery of Maier’s pictures has resounded through the photography world. Websites and blogs devoted to her work have attracted considerable attention and comment. Successful shows have been mounted in Chicago and London. Stories have appeared in The New York Times, NPR, La Republica, Time, The Wall Street Journal, The Independent, The Guardian, CBS News, Smithsonian (forthcoming), and more.

Maier’s subject is the interaction of the individual and the city in the 1950s-70s. She scouts out solitaries of all ages and frames them in poignant juxtapositions. Her pictures have the tug of effecting urgency. It is hard enough to find this quality and quantity of fresh and moving images in a trained photographer who has benefited from schooling and a community of fellow artists. It is astounding to find it in someone with no formal training and no network of peers.

There is still very little known about the life of Vivian Maier. What is known is that she was born in New York in 1926 and worked as a nanny for a family on Chicago’s North Shore during the 50s and 60s. Seemingly without a family of her own, the children she cared for eventually acted as caregivers for Maier herself in the autumn of her life. She passed away in 2009 at the age of 83.]]></Description>

  <Description><![CDATA[Yvonne Estrada's latest body of work is predominantly rendered in varying intensities of ultramarine and cobalt blue gouache and watercolor. Mainly inspired by architectural blueprints, these works are marked by vivid color and expressionistic gesture. Organic shapes, patterns and structures appear in her work as ubiquitously as they appear in nature. These elements interconnect endlessly by means of abstraction and synthesis. Graphite pencil is used to create silvery accents and ballpoint pen turns ovals and spheres into deep, concentrated blues.
 
The artist works from memory associations, improvising moment to moment. From afar, large gestures, drips, stains and loose lines weave in and out of graphic forms and geometric patterns. Upon closer inspection, the intricacy of the artist's labor-intensive method reveals itself. Layer upon layer of countless, ordered lines are rendered in minute detail - each fine line, sometimes no larger than a single mark of punctuation, is made all the more extraordinary by the artist's technical skill.
 
To view one of Estrada's works is like looking through a microscope at a surreal world of the artist's own making, where the dichotomy of symmetry and chaos inherent in the natural world is conveyed by a complex dynamic between pure gesture, geometry and minute graphic detail.

  <Description><![CDATA[Asya Geisberg Gallery presents &quot;Father's Fathers&quot;, the first New York solo exhibition of wood sculpture and works on paper by Icelandic artist Guðmundur Thoroddsen. With a chainsaw and crude hand axe, Thoroddsen crafts bearded heads, sometimes with absurdly geometric hirsuteness. Abstracted amalgamations of Sumerian or Viking gods, the heads are hapless, passive, even useless anachronistic deities, forming a pantheon of false idols.  

Including a bust of his father, an impish self-portrait, and ruminative ink drawings, Thoroddsen's work hosts a variety of questions about our reliance on masculine ideals and our often unquestioned expectations of leaders.  Have we outgrown our need for patriarchs, omnipotent gods, or feared autocratic strongmen? With Qaddafi and Mubarak dismissed and Putin's support cracking, young generations search for a new vision of leadership. With Kim Jong-Il referred to as &quot;our Father&quot;, can gender finally achieve equality and equanimity, while our cultural prototypes remain embedded in our collective psyche? Even within Scandinavia's contemporary progressivism, Thoroddsen sees strict dichotomies carved into each sector of life: within familial, economic or social roles.

Trained as a painter, Thoroddsen began working with wood as a personal exploration of masculinity. The roughly chopped and cracked surface suggests that taking up woodcarving was an attempt at being a &quot;manly man&quot;, a wistful evocation of a brawny woodsman. After the death of his authoritarian father, the artist came to question his own relationship to manliness, and saw everywhere the same focus on patriarchal ideals. By creating a smaller-than-life bust, he literally cut his father down to size.  Seeking broader universal symbols, Thoroddsen began to chart aesthetic representations in Greek, Near-eastern and Norse mythology, culminating in carved heads that smirked at their historic antecedents.

In drawings and sculptures of god-figures urinating, squatting, or made out of horse excrement, Thoroddsen is like a little boy doodling and defacing sacred symbols. He exposes the gods at their most vulnerable and undignified, kicking them off their pedestals. They instantly seem comical, and sacrilegiously profane. Outlined explicitly but watery within and at times cartoonish, the ink drawings have an ease that belies their maker's seriousness. As Thoroddsen says in an imaginary conversation with his patriarchs: &quot;Look, you've had your time. Some of it was good, some bad, it was all pretty unjust and now it's time for something else. We will give you a nice goodbye party.&quot;

Born in Iceland, Guðmundur Thoroddsen studied at the Kunsthochschule Berlin, the Iceland Academy of Arts, and received his MFA from SVA in New York. Currently based in Reykjavik, Thoroddsen has been included in numerous exhibitions in New York, Reykjavik, Stockholm, Berlin, and Helsinki, including &quot;This is Then&quot; at DODGE Gallery (2011), &quot;Fragmentation&quot; curated by Dan Cameron (2011), and &quot;Colorsynthesis&quot; at the Reykjavik Art Museum (2010). His work appears in &quot;Icelandic Art History from late 19th Century to Early 21st Century&quot; (2011), as well as the New Museum's &quot;Younger Than Jesus: Artist Directory&quot; (2009). He is the recipient of a 2011 Icelandic Arts Center grant.]]></Description>

  <Description><![CDATA[&quot;I don't do anything. I just spontaneously happen into strange situations... I'm a renaissance person.&quot; 

- Taylor Mead

Churner and Churner presents an exhibition of works by Taylor Mead, magister ludi of the American underground in film, poetry, and painting. The exhibition focuses on works from the 1980s--many never before seen--and a new set of drawings based on Mead's &quot;Fairy Tale Poem.&quot; The exhibition opens on January 12 with a poetry reading by the artist.

On Saturday, January 14, the gallery will show Andy Warhol's Lonseome Cowboys and the rarely screened Taylor Mead's Ass, along with a collection of home-movies by Mead. A question-and-answer with the artist will follow. 

Mead's exhibition showcases his &quot;Fairy Tale Poem,&quot; a wry, illustrated tale of a castle in the woods (starring none other than Andy Warhol himself), which features prominently in the artist's regular performances at the Bowery Poetry Club and was shown in the 2006 Whitney Biennial. For his show at Churner and Churner, Mead has created a new series of drawings for the ever-evolving poem. Also on display are a group of paintings, some retrieved from Mead's apartment in the Lower East Side where he has resided for thirty-two years, and others from the collections of his friends in the neighborhood. Testimonies to the bohemian lifestyle of New York in the 1980s, the paintings have survived cockroach infestation, subsequent fumigation, and a collapsed ceiling. Mead's work supplanted everyday considerations long ago; in the artist's own words, &quot;I've painted myself out of my apartment.&quot;

These paintings take their gestures and color palettes fom Neo-Expressionism but retain a purposeful naiveté. Many are portraits, including images of Garbo and Warhol; others depict wild animals and exotic scenes. Like all of Mead's artistic practice, these paintings are invigorated by a combination of irony, innocence, and a roguish sense of humor.
 

ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Taylor Mead was born in 1924 in Grosse Point, Michigan. He was an influential member of the Beat scene in San Francsico's North Beach and New York's Lower East Side, crafting witty, ironic and occasionally dirty poetry. His first venture into film stardom was in Ron Rice's The Flower Thief in 1960. Soon after Mead relocated to New York, where he was introduced to Andy Warhol, with whom he made numerous films, including a starring turn in Warhol's Tarzan and Jane Regained... Sort of. J. Hoberman once called Mead &quot;the first underground movie star.&quot; He recently appeared in Jim Jarmusch's Coffee and Cigarettes, and continues to perform at the Bowery Poetry Club every Monday night.

  <Description><![CDATA[Leo Koenig Inc. presents the second solo exhibition of new paintings by Ridley Howard.    
 
Entitled Slows, this new body of work is comprised of portraits, landscapes, and abstractions. Through a subtle play with geometry, space, and color Howard evinces simple observations of modern life where the real and abstract co-exist -- buildings flatten out into abstract forms; a tile façade becomes a minimalist grid; geometric shapes mirror textile patterns. Howard's purposeful attention to scale and blending of visual language creates an elegant and deliberate syncopation; his careful consideration of the banal offers a lingering sense of time. He infuses cool detachment with hints of painterly romanticism, asking the viewer to consider subtle nuances in paint and image that do not immediately reveal themselves. Akin to the cinematic, the work is evocative of avant-garde filmmakers of the late sixties and seventies whose 'long-take' technique fixes a lens on an empty road, a field or a street long after its subjects completely disappear from the frame, and whose works are respected for their narrative vagueness and provocative mystique.
 
The paintings move from strangely detached portraits to pause on a swatch of cloth, to focus on a building's signage, or to completely succumb to imaginary patterns, compelling a slippage into a simultaneously visual and psychological abstraction. And though they have a graphic quality, the hand is evident in soft, atmospheric edges and is crucial to the works' ability to communicate complex and often contradictory emotions to the viewer. A multitude of elements rest beneath the surface of each painting, but are coalesced, and laid bare, singularly by artist's hand.
 
Howard's practice spans over a decade and grows out of a personal amalgamation of experience, fiction, illustration, cinema, design, and the history of painting. His work evokes a tradition of American image painting that encompasses the Ashcan School, Edward Hopper, Ralston Crawford, as well as more recent pop figures such as Ed Ruscha, Tom Wesselmann, and David Hockney. He also takes cues from artists as stylistically divergent as Piero della Francesco, Hans Holbein, Sophie Taeuber-Arp, Francis Picabia, and Giorgio Morandi, as well as filmmakers like Michelangelo Antonioni.]]></Description>

  <Description><![CDATA[&quot;New Photographers&quot; presents five artists exhibiting in New York for the first time. The artists are not linked thematically or stylistically, but what they have in common is their distinctive approach to photography and the originality of their images. In this show, each body of work creates its own context.
