  • Arlene Shechet Skirts
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Arlene Shechet Skirts February 28 – April 25, 2020 540 West 25th Street New York Opening Reception: Thursday, Feb 27 6–8 PM Image: Arlene Shechet, In my view, 2020, glazed ceramic, wood, paint, 58” × 26” × 20” © Arlene Shechet, Photography by Jeremy Liebman New York — Pace Gallery is pleased to present Skirts, its first solo exhibition of works by Arlene Shechet, from February 28 through April 25. Running concurrently with the Whitney Museum’s exhibition Making Knowing, which also features works by Shechet, Skirts brings together more than a dozen of the artist’s most recent sculptures, including large-scale works and a monumental outdoor piece, to be displayed on the second-floor galleries and terrace of Pace’s new flagship building at 540 West 25th street. Rich in idiosyncrasies, Shechet’s latest pieces combine disparate mediums, from ceramics to wood and metalwork, with playfully ambiguous titles that prompt endless associations. Utilizing a title that is both a noun and a verb, Skirts is a testament to the artist’s fluid and unformulaic process. Though her works appear effortless and forgiving of imperfections, they are the belabored products of an intuitive and technically fastidious approach, involving casting, painting, firing, carving, stacking, undoing and redoing with no predetermined endpoint. Her expansive approach to sculpture and materials is reminiscent of artists Shechet admires, such as Sophie Taeuber- Arp and Sonia Delaunay, whose work transcends the divisions of painting and sculpture and encompassed innovative multimedia practices, distinguishing their work from that of their male peers. Shechet’s title, Skirts, also reclaims misogynist slang.

  • George Condo: 'I Was Delirious. Nearly Died' He Worked for Warhol, Jammed with Basquiat – and Now Designs Albums for Kanye West and Handbags for Kim Kardashian
    The Guardian S. Jeffries, ‘George Condo: ‘I was delirious. Nearly died’ 10 February 2014 George Condo: 'I was delirious. Nearly died' He worked for Warhol, jammed with Basquiat – and now designs albums for Kanye West and handbags for Kim Kardashian. But has a recent near-death experience made George Condo's work even weirder BY Stuart Jeffries 'I describe what I do as psychological cubism' … George Condo at the Simon Lee Gallery in London. Photograph: Sarah Lee for the Guardian Last May, George Condo had a near-death experience. The American artist was visiting Berlin after finishing a suite of ink drawings. "I guess my immune system was down and I was in a weird state of mind." "Weirder than usual?" I ask, as we look at those drawings at the Skarstedt Gallery, one of two London venues showing his work this month. "Much weirder," he says. He points to the silhouette of a head dominating the foreground of a work called The Prisoner. Behind the silhouette are iron bars, and behind those is a prisoner facing us, whose head seems to have been flayed to reveal the throbbing orange cranium beneath. "That's where my mind was at." The ink drawings were to be the final portraits of a weird menagerie of archetypal figures – among them banker, butler, alcoholic, and an odd French guy called Jean Louis, who cropped up in various improbable guises including that of a French maid – that Condo had culled from his imagination and worked on for a quarter of a century. "It's the last hurrah of the pods," he says.

All at Once, a major, critically-acclaimed 20-year survey of Shechet’s work, was on view at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston in 2015. Sebastian Smee of The Boston Globe wrote: “It’s in the harmonies and tensions between these colors and textures, between suggestions of both order and anarchy, decay and blooming freshness, that these works cough, sputter, and sing. If they really are the great analogs to interior life that I feel them to be, it’s because Shechet knows that this life, expertly attended to, has its own folds and wrinkles, its own hollows and protuberances; that it is at once fugitive and monumental … and ultimately unknowable.” All at Once was also hailed by The New York Times as “some of the most imaginative American sculpture of the past 20 years, and Arlene Shechet some of the most radically personal.” In recent years, Shechet’s work has included historical museum installations. Porcelain, No Simple Matter: Arlene Shechet and the Arnhold Collection, on view at The Frick Collection from May Working Over Time : an artist’s talk 2016 to April 2017, is described in The New Yorker as “a balancing act of respectful and radical” with “whimsical beauty and deep smarts.” From Here on Now, Shechet’s solo museum exhibition at the Phillips Collection in Washington, D.C., opens October 2016.

  • George Condo Artist George Condo Maps His Return
    Artist George Condo Maps His Return to Health in a New Show Of his new show at Skarstedt Gallery this month: “As an artist you’re able to take negatives and turn them into positives.” By Lane Florsheim | Nov. 26 2019 In late July, the artist George Condo went to the hospital with terrible chest pains. He was told he needed heart surgery immediately. “They said, ‘If you didn’t come in today, you would have been dead tonight,’” he says. After his surgery, Condo’s surgeon showed him black-and-white images of what his artery looked like before and after. “I said, ‘Oh wow, it was really bad,’” he remembers. “He said, ‘Yeah, you would have had a heart attack.’” Condo took the scans home. For his recovery in August, he went to the Hamptons, where he watched TV, played Scrabble with his two daughters and worked on a series of drawings. His larger-scale paintings, which require a ladder, were out of the question. “Then, eventually, I kind of felt perfectly fine,” he says. The drawings he completed during that period of rest are on view in a new exhibit of his work this month in Manhattan. Though the show is titled simply George Condo: Paintings & Works on Paper, it tells the story of a complex year for the artist. Condo, 61, made all of the 25 works in the new show while also working on a 13-foot tall sculpture covered in 24-karat gold leaf, currently on view at Lincoln Center Plaza. When he got back to New York City in September, Condo didn’t have enough new work to fill a show.
