Anton Perich. –Page 14 For although he has lived and worked in the United States since 1996, Jeergall’s paintings exemplify qualities of his national heritage that, if anything, have been made more indelible rather than eroded by his experience in the New York City art scene. The burnished earthtones in his palette, like those of Souza, Husain, and Raza, are steeped in the clay of an arid tropical landscape; while the more strident reds and orange hues evoke not only its heat but also its pageantry and grandeur. Some of Jeergall’s paintings depict classically proportioned figures in a symbolic setting somewhere between the earthly and the cosmic, with variously colored spheres suspended in the stratosphere above. They take on a monumentality akin to the heroic figures of the great British visionary William Blake, as they gather together in family groups or contemplate their environment in solitude. Other compositions veer toward the abstract, consisting of angularly simplified and interlocked shapes that remain figuratively allusive, even while projecting an autonomous formal appeal unique to Jeergall’s visual vocabulary. The energy of individual human aspiration emanates from these shapes, even as they appear entangled in and anxious to Susan Sills, p. 25 wrest themselves from the ties of codependency. “My artworks are the manifestation of unconscious archetypes Bob Tomlinson, p. 5 predominantly representing the saga of very life on this earth,” Jeergall asserts in an artist statement, “and the constant struggle for survival causing various homogeneous groups tied together in relationships that are either harmonious or conflicting to one another in nature.” One of Jeergall’s most potent recent paintings despite its relatively modest scale (16x20 inches) is “Dark World – Through the Window.” Here, he departs from his usual clearly defined interlocking shapes and subtle, subdued hues for a more aggressively vigorous gestural Malka Inbal, p. 28 approach akin to Abstract Expressionism. A muscular mass of white and blue oil impasto laid down with a brush and perhaps piled on with a palette knife, projects the sense of a solid object at the center of the composition. Because its contours are roughly defined, a viewer familiar with Jeergall’s imagery may be tempted to “Rorschach” angular figurative allusions onto the object’s outer edges. And given the title of the painting and the visceral patches of red within the white and blue impasto, one may envision these figures as if glimpsed through a window, moving amid a dreamlike nocturnal miasma of neon light. Yet that the white and blue central form contains black cavities and is set against a background of crosshatched brown strokes, suggesting an earthen wall, could also evoke a skull in one of those death-haunted 16th century northern European still life compositions known as a vanitas. Thus this painting seems to forecast both a darkening and a deepening in the art of Sunjoy Jeergall. –– Byron Coleman Sunjoy Jeergall, Berkeley College Art Gallery, 3 East 43rd Street, June 3 - 28, 2013 Barbara Fracchia, p. 11 Deborah Rhodes, p. 21 2 GALLERYSTUDIO JUN/JUL/AUG 2013 “Up-Surd” Showcases an International Roster mong the artists featured in this oddly of McCusker’s most dynamically rhythmic ranging from children to Japanese geishas in Anamed large group exhibition, curated compositions.

  • Press Release (PDF)
    G A G O S I A N G A L L E R Y August 29, 2016 The critic and curator Philip Rawson, an eloquent guide to the means and methods of drawing over the ages, points out that until the Italian Quattrocento, no European sculptor was supposed to be able to draw. In the medieval period, only those sculptors who also worked in two dimensions drew habitually; any other sculptor who needed, say, to show a client a proposed design hired a draftsman to make one. And when sculptors began to make drawings (for their own use or to guide assistants), they tended to do so without thinking of the format of the paper as a frame to which the image should relate. Instead, the image was generally treated as an independent motif, composed of mutually related units and placed anywhere on the sheet. In this approach, the space of the paper outside the image was not incorporated into the design but functioned like the open, empty space around actual sculptures. ... In contrast, Rawson observes, painters' drawings have tended to treat the usually rectangular format of the paper as a frame to which the image content relates. —John Elderfield Gagosian Gallery is pleased to present “Plane.Site,” a cross-generational exhibition of modern and contemporary artists organized by Sam Orlofsky to inaugurate the San Francisco gallery.

  • Art Catalogue Introduction
    Art Catalogue Introduction Welcome to the inaugural Green Creates… art exhibition. Artistic expression, in its many forms, has existed in every age, every culture, and every country. Art can be both rooted in history and a catalyst for change. It connects us to the past, expresses our views of the present and suggests new ideas and visions for the future. As such, it is only fitting that we should call upon the support of the arts’ community today, as we stand on the brink of an uncertain future, attempting to hold onto the values and achievements that make us proud to be British, whilst working towards a new and better tomorrow. ‘‘Green’ suggests healthy options and therefore Green Creates… is an opportunity for the arts community to show their support for the Green Party, our policies healthy outcomes. Green issues should be the first and our work, but also an example of art as a social commentary in a time of social, economic and political consideration in everything from housing, to health unrest. The theme of Green Voices called for artists to express their opinions on the issues of the day and they to education and beyond.’’ have produced work that encompasses everything from climate change to the ephemeral beauty of nature. Ralph Steadman We are delighted at the richness and diversity of the work that we have on display and to welcome you to this celebration of some of the different interpretations of what it means to be green today. Best wishes, Jonathan Bartley and Caroline Lucas Co-Leaders - Green Party of England and Wales 4

  • Grayson Perry: a Time-Line
    Grayson Perry: A Time-line Grayson Perry: The Pre-Therapy Years Grayson Perry is one of the UK’s leading artists. The exhibition at the Holburne Museum focuses on his early work, from 1981 to 1994, when he employed various media and made his first works in clay. After a series of exhibitions in various small galleries, in 1994 his first mainstream show signaled his establish- ment, securing what he describes as his distinctive identity as ‘the transvestite potter’. Perry grew up in suburban Essex and sought refuge from a troubled childhood in an imaginary world ruled over by his teddy bear, Alan Measles. At Portsmouth Polytechnic and later, living in a London squat, he was part of a post-Punk group of artists, musicians and film-makers, particularly the Neo Naturists, a per- formance art collective connected to the New Romantic club scene. Perry has described this early period as the ‘pre-Therapy years’, a time when he explored his complex identity through his art, expressing an anger which would later be resolved through psychotherapy. His imagery could be deliberately shocking, sometimes combining Nazi symbols (a trait of British Punk), reli- gious iconography and graphic scenes of unorthodox sexual activity. At the same time, his work satirised such social themes as class and gender and, especially, the conventions of the art world of which he was increasingly a part. Grayson Perry’s Biography 1960 Grayson Perry born 24 March in Chelmsford, Essex 1963 Aged 3, he contracts measles. During his illness he bonds with a teddy bear, naming him Alan Measles.

Proposing a third term that operates beyond the dichotomy of high culture and mass culture and yet offers a fresh approach to both, these essays address a multitude of different topics that can all be classified as unpopular culture. From David Foster Wallace and Ernest Hemingway to Zane Grey, from Christian rock and country to clack cetal, from Steven Seagal to Genesis (Breyer) P-Orridge, from K-pop to The Real Housewives, from natural disasters to 9/11, from thesis hatements to professional sports, these essays find the unpopular across media and genres, and they analyze the politics and the aesthetics of an unpopular culture (and the unpopular in culture) that has not been duly recognized as such by the theories and methods of cultural studies.
