Sylvie Fleury at A MAIOR

The full selection of our curated exhibitions is available online - find the link in our bio.

"Sylvie Fleury presents VROOM VROOM VOODOO, a new storefront installation at A Maior overlooking the parking lot. The large-format prints feature three women, a lone man, a white horse and a sports car. They all meet in a barren place, and a conflict ensues.

This presentation follows the 2018 storefront commission by Marte Eknæs, comprised of large-scale digital collages titled Bolhas, Ventiloção and Mãos."

Zoe Leonard at Maxwell Graham

Find our curated selection of exhibitions on our website.

"Maxwell Graham Gallery is honored to present Zoe Leonard’s Display. The exhibition consists of a new body of work by the artist;
although the photographs were taken between 1990 and 1994, Leonard only realized them as artworks this year. The tragedy of the photographs is their continued relevance."

In Conversation with Zazou Roddam
Words by Violet Conroy

The full interview is now up on our website- find the link in bio to read.

"When I use found or discarded materials, there’s always a sense of absence attached to them. The voids in these objects often point to missing history or overlooked details, things that were once part of a system but have been forgotten or left out. I’m interested in how these gaps can say just as much as what is physically there. I always think of John Cage’s composition 4’33”, how the silence in that piece isn’t empty, but instead makes you hyper aware of everything around it."

Victor Man at David Zwirner

Our curated selection of exhibitions happening around the world can be found our website - check the link in bio!

"What forces to stand so silently on the decayed spiral staircase in the house of the fathers and the flickering candlestick dies in slender hands. Hour of lonely sinisterness, mute awakening in the hallway in the sallow web of the moon. O the smile of evil sad and cold, so that the sleeping woman’s rosy cheek pales. In showers a black linen veiled the window. And a flame jumped out of the other one’s heart and it burned silverly in darkness, a singing star. Silently childhood’s crystalline paths sank in the garden."

"This show has a selfish origin,” Blake says in their curatorial statement, “these are all works that I have wanted to be in the presence of, to wander inside of, to refresh my eyes and mind with. I’ve wanted to trace the actions of hands and fingers as they shape and shift fragments, to catch a bit of the artists’ delight at finding the exact place for the element they’ve been keeping around or just stumbled over. These things are made, not manufactured, and they feed us through recording the time their creator spent with them."

“There is sometimes a painful dilemma involved at the starting point of any given work. I cannot resist now but call it the dilemma of becoming aware of the silliness or emptiness of the things one is producing. On the other hand, there is high pressure to exercise some discipline and courage to overcome the fear of showing them—one reason to explain my bringing lamps and text print-outs to the gallery. There was, of course, some helpful advice from trusted confidants to do such things.”

Josef Strau (born in Vienna, Austria) lives and works in Vienna. Institutional solo exhibitions include Kunstverein für die Rheinlande und Westfalen, Düsseldorf (2020); Künstlerhaus Bremen (2017); Secession, Vienna (2015); The Renaissance Society, University of Chicago (2014); and Malmö Konsthall, Sweden (2008). Significant group exhibitions include Bundeskunsthalle, Bonn (2022); the Busan Biennale, Busan, South Korea (2020); Neues Museum Nürnberg (2020); Kunsthalle Bern (2017); Centre Pompidou, Paris (2016); mumok, Vienna (2015); Statens Museum for Kunst, Copenhagen (2014); the Liverpool Biennial (2014); Haus der Kulturen der Welt, Berlin (2013); Generali Foundation, Vienna (2012); and SculptureCenter, Long Island City, New York (2011). His work is in the collections of the Bundeskunstsammlung – The Federal Collection of Contemporary Art, Germany; Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh; Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; and the ZKM Center for Art and Media, Karlsruhe, Germany.

In Conversation with Anne Bourse
Words by Emma Bombail

"Why melancholia?"

"It’s not entirely clear, but it’s often the state I want to put myself (and us) in, what I want the thing I’ve made to do to me. It’s a kind of transaction: I want it to put us in a state of melancholy, since we’re made of things just as much as we make them."
