    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT : LOCKS GALLERY 215.629.1000 / 215.629.3868 fax [email protected] Thomas Chimes On Alfred Jarry June 18–July 16, 2010 Gallery Hours: Tuesda y–Saturday, 10a m–6pm Summer Hours (July-August): Monday –Friday, 10a m–6pm Concerning Bosse de nage cynocephalus, 1990, oil on wood, 36 x 39 7/8 inches June 2010, Philadelphia, PA – Locks Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of paint - ings by Thomas Chimes. Thomas Chimes: On Alfred Jarry, will be on view at Locks Gallery from June 18 through July 16th, 2010. Alfred Jarry, the French poet and playwright, and originator of Pere Ubu was a frequent subject of Thomas Chimes’s paintings. Having discovered Jarry in the early 60s and sketched drawings of Ubu in 1966, Chimes’ first painted image of Alfred Jarry dates to 1973. This presentation of Chimes’ work focuses on both Jarry’s image and his writing as a subject for Chimes and includes paintings created between 1976 and 2002. As Michael Taylor noted in his 2007 retrospective of Chimes, of all his artistic forebears and influences, Jarry was the foremost, and Chimes continued to draw inspiration from his writing up through his last works. On view are several paintings from the 80s - profile views of Jarry, a series of “white por - traits” that became among the artist’s best known works; several of these paintings are borrowed from private collections for this display. With a career spanning over five decades, the work of Thomas Chimes is in the collec - tions of such museums as the Allentown Art Museum, Centre Pompidou National (over) 600 Washington Square South Philadelphia PA 19106 tel 215.629.1000 fax 215.629.3868 [email protected] www.locksgallery.com Museum of Modern Art, Paris, Corcoran Museum of Art, Delaware Art Museum, Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, Museum of Modern Art, National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Philadelphia Museum of Art, Phoenix Art Museum, Portland Art Museum, Smithsonian American Art Museum, Wadsworth Atheneum Art Museum and Yale University Art Gallery.

  • ENG KETELEER GALLERY Is Very Pleased to Present a Solo
    ENG KETELEER GALLERY is very pleased to present a solo exhibition by American painter Lawrence Carroll (1954- 2019). The exhibition consists of a selection of works from the Deweer Gallery Estate. Lawrence Carroll, born in Melbourne, Australia and died in May 2019, considers himself a true painter. Although his works are rarely recognisable as classic paint-on-canvas work, this is always his point of departure. However, the creative process causes the works to unfold in literally all directions. One can imagine the canvas with which it all started, but the end result is a complex layered structure of linen, wood, cardboard, wax, flowers, ice … and paint. Everyday things – leftovers that would’ve been thrown away – are added, removed, cut, stapled, mended, scraped off and so on. As a true testament to the process, all traces are kept visible. The painting literally and figuratively leaves the frame with Carroll. The ‘natural’, almost colourless constructions that are reminiscent of the Arte Povera movement take all kinds of forms: paintings shaped like – but still paintings according to Carroll – (wall) sculptures, tables, boxes, hinged surfaces, light boxes … In every case the artist searches for the perfect composition – on the surface, in 3D or in depth – a painstakingly long process that is determined by experimentation and an unwavering commitment to discovering the new, no matter how much patience or effort it requires. Here and there something of text pops up which, thanks to the sparing and meticulous way in which it is employed, soon turns into poetry. Fragments of sentences are illegible “scraps” which, just like the other materials, merge into a new whole.

  • Sean Scully, 1945 —
    Sean Scully, 1945 — Sean Scully (b. 1945, Dublin, Ireland) is an American-Irish artist who is internationally recognised for his distinctive abstract compositions that interrogate the properties of light, colour and form. Scully studied painting at Croydon College of Art, London and Newcastle University, UK, where he began to work in abstraction. During a trip to Morocco in 1969, Scully was strongly influenced by the local textiles and rich colours of the region, which he translated into the broad horizontal stripes and deep earth tones that characterise his mature style. Scully’s travels throughout Morocco and Mexico would also prompt his decision to move from Minimalism to a more emotional and humanistic form of abstraction. Following fellowships in 1972 and 1975 at Harvard University, Scully’s paintings became increasingly monumental and sculptural, consisting of interconnected three-dimensional panels that anticipated his later sculpture practice. In 1984 he began to develop the Wall of Light series, replacing the precise stripes of his early paintings with solid blocks of colour, built with increasingly loose and feathered brushstrokes into vertical and horizontal ‘bricks’ that suggest a wall of stone. Subtle differences in colour in the paintings indicate the location in which they were created, the changing seasons and the artist’s own emotions. This series formed the subject of a major touring exhibition at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York in 2007. In 1984 Scully achieved international breakthrough through his inclusion in the major group exhibition An International Survey of Recent Painting and Sculpture at the Museum of Modern Art, New York.

  • Invisible City: Philadelphia and the Vernacular Avant-Garde NOTES on the UNDERGROUND
    INVISIBLE CITY Philadelphia and the Vernacular Avant-garde Invisible City: Philadelphia and the Vernacular Avant-garde NOTES ON THE UNDERGROUND 252 Sid Sachs 253 Invisible City: Philadelphia and the Vernacular Avant-garde Notes on the Underground Sid Sachs In the mid-twentieth century, Philadelphia was a publishing center, its populism epito- mized by Curtis Publishing Company’s The Saturday Evening Post and Ladies Home Journal and Walter Annenberg’s TV Guide and Seventeen. The everyday American worldview—the Norman Rockwell and N.C. Wyeth versions of America—originated from these publishers. These were not aristocratic visions but, rather, the iconography of popular culture (as defined by sociologist Herbert Gans).1 In addition to Annenberg’s Triangle Publications and Curtis, Philadelphia was home to J.B. Lippincott, smaller specialty publishers such as Chilton and Cypher Press, and many others.2 Over these years, Philadelphia culture produced artifacts variously affiliated with the Beat writers, pulp fiction, experimental poetry, popular music, and a proto-punk ethos. Indeed, Philadelphia encompassed many worlds, from the Ivy League University of Pennsylvania and its elite Quaker satellite schools to Philip Barry’s patrician Tracey Lords; it brooked an even darker proletarian underworld. David Lynch noticed this chthonic condition during his Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA) years in the late 1960s and Sun Ra decried the city, saying, “To save the planet, I had to go to the worst spot on Earth, and that was Philadelphia, which is death’s headquarters.”3 That sinister underbelly was best illustrated by David Goodis, an important pulp-fiction writer.
