    Artsy April 2, 2019 GAGOSIAN How Takashi Murakami Got His Start as an Artist Scott Indrisek “At the studio I rented for $80 a month on Lorimer Street in Brooklyn, uncertain whether I would have anything to eat the next day.” © Takashi Murakami/Kaikai Kiki Co., Ltd. All Rights Reserved. Courtesy of Gagosian. In the second installment of a new series, we continue to shine a light on the tumultuous early days of artists who have since become household names. Takashi Murakami, 57, may now be an international art star and a cultural icon, but he was once a disgruntled student, bored with his conservative schooling and dreaming of better things. Indeed, when he was just starting out, Murakami claimed no special status as an artist. “I was never particularly talented at drawing or painting,” he said; hard work, practice, and determination would sharpen those skills. He had his first solo show in 1989, at Tokyo’s Ginza Surugadai Gallery, and began traveling from his native Japan to New York City around that time. Murakami always thought of New York as one of the art world’s vital centers, and he was willing to struggle in order to absorb what it had to offer. He recalled once renting a studio on Lorimer Street in Brooklyn for a mere $80 a month (“uncertain whether I would have anything to eat the next day,” he added). In 1994, he landed a residency in the prestigious PS1 International Studio Program. These early experiences helped shape Murakami’s unique artistic vision. The hyperconfident artist would eventually become a global brand, his manga-inspired creations taking over the world—one wild sculpture and painting at a time.

  • Flash Rebirth Free
    FREE FLASH REBIRTH PDF Ethan Van Sciver,Geoff Johns | 168 pages | 03 May 2011 | DC Comics | 9781401230012 | English | New York, NY, United States THE FLASH: REBIRTH #1 | DC The series was published by DC Comicsand features characters from throughout the nearly seventy-year-long history of Flash comics. The first issue was published on April 1, The series was first planned to last for five issues, but was extended to six issues in May In the third issue of Final Crisis: Rogues' RevengeLibra tells the Rogues that "the Flash the Rogues first battled has come back to the land Flash Rebirth the living". The Rogues regroup in the basement of the Flash Museum and lament the possibility of Barry Allen having returned to life, saying, "He ain't like the kid Flash Rebirth took it up after him. He never gave us a break". Once the skies are back to blue, the game's back on Barry once again becomes the primary Flash Rebirth in the mini- series. Geoff Flash Rebirth confirmed that Bart would return to the past and would play a large role in The Flash: Rebirth. Two forensics scientists in Central City are killed by a mysterious man wielding a spear with a lightning bolt-shaped tip. He rearranges containers of chemicals on shelves and, using the spear as a lightning rod, recreates the accident that gave Barry Allen—also known as The Flash—his powers, then escapes from arriving police officers. His thoughts indicate he is responsible for Barry Flash Rebirth return. Members of the Flash family react to his return: at Justice Society headquarters, Jay Garrick recounts how Barry inspired him to return to superheroics; at Titans Tower East, Wally West remembers Barry with fondness and respect; at Titans Tower West, Bart Allen views his grandfather's return with skepticism; and Iris West Allen waits happily for her husband to come home.

    Financial Times January 20, 2020 GAGOSIAN Living with Damien Hirst and friends Robert Tibbles was an early collector of the Young British Artists — now he is preparing to sell many of his acquisitions Melanie Gerlis Caption (TNR 9 Italicized) Everyone likes to say that they discovered an artist before they were famous, but in the case of the London bond salesman Robert Tibbles, the claim is true. Back in the 1980s, the late art dealer Karsten Schubert introduced Tibbles to the work of an art student called Damien Hirst. Alongside Charles Saatchi, Tibbles then became one of the now-superstar artist’s first buyers. So began an intense, 15-year collecting spree, mostly of works by Hirst and other Young British Artists. These now dominate Tibbles’s Victorian ground-floor flat in London’s leafy Kensington, where an early Hirst spot painting, “Antipyrylazo III” (1994), has loomed almost too large over the living room fireplace since Tibbles bought it in the year it was made. Hanging nearby is another early purchase — Hirst’s degree-show medicine cabinet “Bodies” (1989) — a work that demonstrates Tibbles’s aptitude for picking the right time in the art market as well as the debt markets. He bought the cabinet for £600 (again, in the year it was made) and now, as Tibbles prepares to sell much of his YBA collection at auction at Phillips in London, the cabinet is valued between £1.2m and £1.8m. “There’s no question that the medicine cabinet and other works were not liked or understood by many of my friends.

    Artforum January, 2000 GAGOSIAN 1999 Carnegie International Carnegie Museum of Art Katy Siegel When you walk into the lobby of the Carnegie Museum, the program of this year’s International announces itself in microcosm. There in front of you is atmospheric video projection (Diana Thater), a deadpan disquisition on the nature of representation (Gregor Schneider’s replication of his home), a labor-intensive, intricate installation (Suchan Kinoshita), a bluntly phenomenological sculpture (Olafur Eliasson), and flat, icy painting (Alex Katz). Undoubtedly the best part of the show, the lobby is also an archi-tectural site of hesitation, a threshold. Here the installation encapsulates the exhi-bition’s sense of historical suspen-sion, another kind of hesitation. Ours is a time not of endings but of pause. My favorite work, viewed through the museum’s huge glass wall, was the Eliasson, a fountain of steam wafting vertically from an expanse of water on a platform through which trees also rise up. It’s a heart-throbbing romantic landscape. Romantic, but not naive: The work plays on the tradition of the courtyard fountain, and the steam is piped from the museum’s heating system. Combining the natural and the industrial in a way peculiarly appro-priate to Pittsburgh on a quiet Sunday morning in early autumn, it echoed two billows of steam (or, more queasily, smoke?) off in the distance. When blunt physical fact achieves this kind of lyricism, it is something to see. Upstairs in the galleries, Ernesto Neto’s Nude Plasmic, 1999, relies as well on the phenomenology of simple form, but the Brazilian artist avoids Eliasson’s picturesque imagery.

    The Brooklyn Rail June 5, 2018 GAGOSIAN Jenny Saville: Ancestors Jason Rosenfeld Jenny Saville, Byzantium, 2018. © Jenny Saville. Photo: by Mike Bruce. Courtesy Gagosian. The athleticism of Jenny Saville’s brushwork and draughtsmanship has been the hallmark of her work since her earliest exhibition in New York, at Gagosian's Wooster Street incarnation in 1999. She was then associated with Damien Hirst's band of Young British Artists, riding the Cool Britannia wave and establishing London as a prime destination for contemporary art for the first time since Victoria was queen. The elegance of Saville’s facture, the swirling and energetic pace of her drawing, made her inheritor of a tradition of gestural, bravura painting going back to Titian, Rubens, and Velázquez, and as reworked by John Everett Millais and Édouard Manet, and finally perfected by John Singer Sargent in the late-nineteenth century. This was then reprised and critiqued in the abstracted figuration of de Kooning and the visceral reconstitution of form of Lucien Freud in the post-war era. All those gesticulative men. If you were open to being energized by the pleasure of agilely pushed paint in the service of a kind of post-academic, post-modern, post-minimal realism, then Saville delivered, and her edgy subject matter paralleled a wave of artistic interest in the body, the self, the gaze, and the abject. By a woman. On a huge scale. In her second New York show, Migrants, the sight of Suspension (2002 – 03), featuring a headless pig sprawled on its side across almost fifteen feet of canvas and hung just off the ground in Gagsosian’s Chelsea digs at 24th Street in the spring of 2003 was memorable and remarkable.

  • 'Rachel Whiteread' Review: Where Memories Dwell
    The Wall Street Journal October 2, 2018 GAGOSIAN ‘Rachel Whiteread’ Review: Where Memories Dwell The British sculptor draws on her formative experiences to create often-monumental works. Eric Gibson Rachel Whiteread’s ‘Ghost’ (1990) PHOTO: GLENSTONE FOUNDATION ‘Greatest living British artist” is among the most abused accolades in art criticism. The one person who deserves it is sculptor Rachel Whiteread, now the subject of a retrospective at the National Gallery of Art. “Rachel Whiteread,” which travels to the Saint Louis Art Museum after Washington, was jointly organized by the Gallery’s Molly Donovan and Ann Gallagher of Tate Britain, where it began its international tour last fall. It features some 100 sculptures and drawings. The list includes “Closet” (1988), a plaster cast of the interior space of a wardrobe wrapped in black felt to evoke the artist’s childhood habit of hiding in closets, and the 1995 model for her acclaimed “Holocaust Memorial” (2000) in Vienna’s Judenplatz. Generationally, Ms. Whiteread (b. 1963) is one of the Young British Artists, seen here in the notorious “Sensation” exhibition in 1999. Temperamentally, however, she couldn’t be more different from that group, lacking for example the drive-by irony of a Damien Hirst. Ms. Whiteread is old school: Her art expresses something personal and deeply felt. Rachel Whiteread’s ‘Untitled (Domestic)’ (2002) PHOTO: RACHEL WHITEREAD/GAGOSIAN, LONDON/LUHRING AUGUSTINE, NEW YORK/GALLERIA LORCAN O?NEILL Ms. Whiteread came to three dimensions via two, after learning the casting process while a painting student at Brighton Polytechnic in the 1980s. She then studied sculpture at the Slade School of Art in London.

Such displays are rarely given any consideration beyond the purpose of their function. A grocery list, a quick measurement, a way to pass the time. It is this very gesture that is given great attention in the latest show at the Gagosian Gallery in Beverly Hills, California. This is Tracey Emin’s You Left Me Breathing; a show featuring works in various mediums that focus on the artist’s urgent and intimate actions. Unlike many artists of late, Tracey Emin looks no further than her own emotional landscapes to provide the viewer with access to many autobiographical moments detailing her joys and failures. It is a small privilege to be able to view her work outside of her native England. It benefits her in that the reputation she has in Britain means little on America shores as she is known for emotional breakdowns on television interviews, public drunkenness, well published spats with other artists and other forms of bad girl behavior typically reserved for a rock star rather than one of the country’s most notable contemporary artists. Without any knowledge of the coverage of her in various tabloids, one is able to view her work and encounter the emotional vulnerability and confrontational self-expression that has always been present in her art.

    The Art Newspaper May 1, 2019 GAGOSIAN Blossoming artist: Damien Hirst on returning to the studio, fluorescent florals and the 'muppets' in government Hirst has spent the past 18 months in his London studio painting cherry blossom and now, in an exclusive interview, he explains why this new body of work is a matter of life and death Alison Cole Damien Hirst in his studio © Prudence Cummings I visited Damien Hirst’s Thames-side Hammersmith studio on one of those peculiarly English damp, grey days to be greeted by a veritable burst of colour and a beaming Hirst, spattered in paint and clearly in his element. I am advised to don a rather fetching white shell-suit and slippers, just in case I, too, am transfigured by pigment, which dribbles Pollock-like across the floor and splashes sofas and surfaces. I am here to talk to Hirst about his return to the studio, after the intense and lengthy production phase of Treasures from the Wreck of the Unbelievable, and to see his new series of cherry blossom paintings in progress. Some are still in their nascent, skeletal state—he describes these with gleeful irony as “bad versions of Hockneys”. Others are overloaded with splotches of blossom to a “celebratory” state of excess. The Art Newspaper: As we’re sitting here surrounded by your new Cherry Blossom paintings, I’d like to ask about your return to the studio and to working without a cast of studio assistants. Did your Veil paintings presage this? Damien Hirst: Well, no. Around the time that my friend Angus Fairhurst committed suicide in 2008, I was in the middle of painting.
