“EVE OF DESTRUCTION” BY JEN RAY

ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Jen Ray creates paintings, performances, and sound works celebrating female self-determination. Drawing inspiration and symbolism from a wide range of socio-political and cultural references, Jen Ray challenges static or reverential perceptions of feminism and encourages ongoing discussions about gender, intersectionality, and identity. The presentation Eve of Destruction features works of art that hint at the real perils women face every day... in many of the works, female figures are glamorously dressed in battle gear, and a flower encrusted porcelain axe hangs on the wall within easy reach of the warriors. Although the works are presented as fantasy, they symbolize real-world events and pressures. The exhibition continues the artist's interest and exploration of the cycles of destruction and re-invention on both a grand scale and on the personal side.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Jen Ray (b. 1970, American) has spent the last several years living and working in Berlin, where she is represented by Wentrup gallery. Rayʼs work has been exhibited widely throughout Germany, including shows at Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg, Kunstverein Kassel, and KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin. Jen Rays drawings are militantly detailed filigrees of judicious line and color; the artist's hand enunciates sparring Amazonian women, who inhabit decaying, semi-surrealist and strangely beautiful wastelands. In addition to her works on paper, Ray orchestrates lavish and provocative performances in which the female protagonists of her drawings come to life.

Artist

Brian Bress

Brian Bress is a Los Angeles based artist and filmmaker who creates absurd, circular narrative films driven by the circumstances of a bizarre cast of ridiculously costumed characters, more often than not played by Bress himself. Though they rely predominantly on homemade props and costumes, Bress’s videos are visually innovative and their inherent silliness and rambling pace only serve to intensify the examination of assumptions about the nature of reality. He is also known for his collage-like portraits that feature costumed actors wearing strange masks that obscure their faces. By disguising the identities of the sitters, Bress heightens the level of uncertainty in the work to humorous levels. Brian Bress (b. 1975) received a BFA from Rhode Island School of Design and a MFA from University of California, Los Angeles.

Past Artist

Charlie Billingham

Park House opened it's doors and showcased British painter, Charlie Billingham, and his unique art work that was featured in our rotating art gallery from December 2018 through October 2019. 

Charlie Billingham takes imagery from Regency-era satirical prints and drawings, cropping and distorting sections to create new compositions, devoid of the intended political and social meanings of the original illustrations. A rainbow of powdered wigs, plumed bonnets, sagging britches, and full-figured bottoms dance across his paintings. The canvases, which are sometimes hinged together to make folding screens, are often hung on block printed wall paintings and alongside colorful painted plant pots and houseplants, to create decorative, domestic interiors. Charlie Billingham (b. 1984, London) studied Fine Art and History of Art in Edinburgh (2008) and then Fine Art at the Royal Academy Schools in London (2013).

Danielle Kimzey

Danielle Kimzey finds an interest in her experience of time—not in a grand, scientific manner, but rather in the quiet, often overlooked moments that marks her daily existence. “My paintings explore the role of patterns and how they can orient us in a space, give hindsight to an experience or recall a memory. I build and reconfigure mundane structures or patterns and break them open until chaos and order intersect, accidents reveal possibilities of color, line and space, and a greater significance unfolds.” Danielle Kimzey (b. 1980) received an MFA in Painting from the University of Iowa and a BFA in Drawing from Southern Methodist University. Lives in Dallas, Texas.

Artist

David Korty

David Korty is a Los Angeles-based artist known for his mixed-media technique which combines elements of painting, frottage, and printmaking to create colorful geometric compositions. By employing simple methods and a specifically defined palette to create these elements, Korty is able to devote himself fully to the pained and precise structuring of each composition, which hearken in equal part to Russian Constructivism and Pop Art. Though at times representational elements appear in Korty's work, a formal logic dominates, pushing even discernible passages of text to the point of abstraction. Korty has shown extensively in Los Angeles, in solo exhibitions at Night Gallery, China Art Objects, Michael Kohn, and LAXART, at Derek Eller Gallery and Greene Naftali in New York, and at Sadie Coles HQ in London. His work is in the permanent collections of the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, the Grunwald Center for Graphic Arts, Los Angeles, the Judith Rothschild Foundation, and the Rubell Collection.

Deep in the Art of Texas

Exhibition Overview - Deep in the Art of Texas
We were delighted to have Donald Robertson’s tongue-in-cheek, humorous art grace the walls and halls of Park House for his first show in Dallas. Our collaboration with the noted pop artist, prolific Instagram star and illustrator, enlivened the walls as you entered Park House. Donald recently moved his family to Highland Park from Southern California. Within a few short months, he has entrenched himself in the culture and subtleties of Texas and Dallas. 

Donald’s show featured various elements including his works on canvas, illustrations directly on the walls and large-scale sculptures. And for this show only, we created an “Instagram Photo” opportunity! Be sure to follow Donald on Instagram at @drawbertson. PH hosted a programming event were Donald chatted with PH co-founder, Deborah Scott, about his inspirations behind the Park House show and the wide breadth of art works he creates out of anything from an old basketball, vintage canvases and oil drums. Donald’s works were also available for purchase right off the walls. A percentage of the sale of each piece benefited our soon to be launched Park House Foundation, PHoundation. More information to follow on this exciting charity endeavor.

Now a word from the Artist...Donald's Vision:
“Happy April Fools!” The perfect day to open a show of my work. I pride myself on being foolish. I love making ridiculous things. “Funny Art” - not just because people who know better told me not to. Oh no. I explained it this way...I like my work to be “tongue in chic”. That explains what I do perfectly. Stupid I know. Google if you will my first solo show I did in Paris at Colette. It was during French Fashion week. I had been invited by Madam Colette herself to show my Portraits I make out of Walnuts. The show was called #fashionisnuts! It was so stupid and so genius at the same time. I’ll never forget Planters peanuts executives tried to contact me after because they said it’s hard to get high end fashion press for nuts! I proved them wrong.

People in California said I was crazy for moving to Texas. That was in December 2020. I got here in January 2021 and my wife, Kim, and I immediately landed on a bar sofa in Park House. We had the best night. Deborah asked me to lunch the next day. She had me sign one of the last copies of my (sold out) book. Then, we came up with the idea to let me art bomb the joint. The front part!!! I am thrilled to have the blank walls to share all my latest work. Inspired by my very long drive to Texas. I drove a dog and my middle son, Ted. Kim and the other two flew. It was a great trip and sparked something in me very deeply. Now the broker that sold me our house in Highland Park says all his appointments these days are showing people from California houses for sale. Ha! Who is the genius now!!! 

I’m sorry my Assouline coffee table book sold out. I would love to have it at Park House. I got a coffee table book of all my work because I was painting my name on their other covers and they asked me to stop. So, I got my own book. See how smart it is to do dumb things. Did I mention it sold out? Texas is a world into itself. Diana Vreeland said 'the eye has to travel.'  She was right. I have a lobby stuffed with inspired art to prove it."

Ed Ruscha

Quintessentially American, Ed Ruscha is an L.A. based artist whose work, like California itself, is both geographically rooted and a metaphor for an American state of mind. Ruscha is a deft creator of photography, film, painting, drawing, prints and artist books, whose works are simultaneously unexpected and familiar, both ironic and sincere. His most iconic works are by turns poetic and deadpan, incorporating epigrammatic texts with nods to advertising copy, juxtaposed with imagery that is either cinematic and sublime, or wryly deadpan. Whether the subject is his iconic standard gas station or the Hollywood sign, a parking lot or highway, his works are a distillation of American idealism, echoing the expansive Western landscape and optimism unique to postwar America. Ruscha produced News, Mews, Pews, Brew, Stews & Dues during an extended stay in London. To make each print Ruscha and Lyn Haywood would purchase unorthodox materials from grocery stores such as blackcurrants, Bolognese, chocolate syrup, axle grease, baked beans and Branston Pickle and use them as materials to print. A clue to the hidden meaning in the work can be found in his selection of the Beans. Heinz Baked Beans are considered to be quintessentially British, however they were produced in the United States from 1901 until 1928.The unfamiliarity of the words combined with the strange materials highlights Ruscha’s status as an alien observer in the UK but also how our assumptions about a subject, word or material does not always match its reality. Ed Ruscha (b. 1937, Omaha, Nebraska) attended the Chouinard Art Institute (now California Institute of the Arts), Los Angeles, from 1956 to 1960.

Artist

Francisco Moreno

Francisco Moreno is an abstract painter and performance artist. His approach to abstraction stems from his interest in dazzle camouflage, also known as dazzle painting a system for camouflaging ships during World War I. "Dazzle painting" consisted of complex patterns of geometric shapes in constrating colors, interrupting and intersecting each other. Interestingly, unlike other forms of camouflage the intention of dazzle is not to conceal but to make it difficult to estimate a target's range, speed, and heading. Francisco Moreno (b. 1986, Mexico City) completed his Bachelors in Fine art at the University of Texas in Arlington in 2010 and a Masters in Fine Art from the Rhode Island School of Design in 2012. Lives in Dallas, Texas.

Past Artist

Gilbert & George

Gilbert & George are a fascinating collaborative duo based in East London. With the creed "Art for All," they have engaged and stunned the world with their peculiar performance pieces and vibrant photo-collage work.  

The pair met while studying at St. Martin's School of Art, and have lived together as "living sculptures" ever since. Their performance art piece, The Singing Sculpture, put them on the map in 1969. Since then, the two have functioned as one artist, and are known for large-scale photography, often working in bold colors and black grids. 

Rarely seen apart, and almost always in matching suits, Gilbert & George's relevancy extends beyond the art world. They have inspired comic book series and their work has been a favorite collectable of David Bowie.  In 2008, they were listed among the best dressed men over 50 in The Guardian. This year, they released a collaboration with the brand, Supreme. 

Their work is featured in The Art Institute of Chicago, Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, Museum of Modern Art, New York, Tate Gallery, London, and all around the world.  

All Gilbert & George artwork is available for purchase from Lehmann Maupin Gallery.

Hexton Gallery: From Behind the Glass by American Michael De Feo

Exhibition Overview

ABOUT THE ARTIST
New York City based artist, Michael De Feo has been painting flowers around the world since the early 1990’s. Rooted at the forefront of the street art movement in New York, he earned the moniker “The Flower Guy”. Continuously exploring the alluring beauty of the natural world, Michael created a series of flower-inspired paintings symbolizing beauty, ephemerality, ritualistic expression, and the cycle of life. Beginning in 2015, he used a master key to access the ad spaces in city bus-stops, inserting his paintings in place of the original branded campaigns, combining the intimacy of these bouquets with an outdoor projection. As the removed advertisements piled up in his studio, he began painting over them, and then reinstalled them back into the vitrines on the streets. This body of work merges fashion takeovers with guerrilla art by both subverting and celebrating the underlying images. With the excitement that came out of combining the fashion world with floral treatments, an ongoing series of magazine page interventions came to life. This exhibition encompasses works from these different moments in his career, visualizing his trajectory. His studio work incorporates a wide range of influences, from Dutch 17th century still life painting to fashion magazines and fashion advertising campaigns. He often adds his floral treatments and cascades of multicolored petals to existing printed images from the fashion world and art history/traditional art, which both subverts and celebrates the underlying image. Michael was asked to paint his signature flowers on the Neiman Marcus covers. In an interesting connection to Dallas, Michael did a collaboration with the Neiman Marcus catalog “The Book” back in 2016. These covers were part of a series of NM catalogs that year that won a Clio Award. 

The 11 Works in the show are all for sale through Hexton Gallery. To view all artwork and pricing, click here.

Hexton Gallery: Right Place by Marcos Acosta

ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
Marcos Acosta has been exploring the traditional genre of landscape painting for 20 years. As a native of Córdoba, Argentina, he absorbs and digests the visual aspects of his territory with an exquisite level of detail, questioning the relationship between men and nature through his irreverent geometries. This recent collection of paintings follows on the heals of his last institutional exhibition Outside the Wind, Inside The World  and addresses the universal connection that lies beneath everything that is.

Acosta explores the notion that, at a subatomic level, humans are made of the same elements as everything around us. As such, the artist finds himself in the natural elements that he portrays and offers us an opportunity to do the same. These works propose an integration with nature, not a separation from it, and in so doing erases the tension between culture and nature. The places he depicts in his works are outside of any specific physical space and instead formed by an echo or a dream, further uniting us and the landscape. The Right Place is no place and every place, encompassing a common essence that is, at its core, simply light.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Born in Cordóba, Argentina in 1980, Marcos developed his artistic activity in multiple fields, mainly painting, drawing, engraving and sculpture. He began his studies at the age of 10 and attended different private workshops, alternating with stages of self-taught production until the age of 16. In 1998, he began his studies at the Faculty of Arts of the National University of Cordóba, Argentina, from which he graduated with a BA in Painting. Between 1998 and 2000, he attended the workshop of master artist Carlos Peiteado, with whom he further perfected his drawing, painting and composition. Since 2001, Acosta has had over 35 solo exhibitions, more than 115 collective exhibitions and has received several awards and honors in Argentina. Acosta’s work is represented in many private collections and public art institutions around the world.

Artist

John Pomara

John Pomara incorporates various technological platforms into his work to reflect our unconscious immersion in the digital world. His abstract paintings depict blurs, glitches, and printing imperfections, contradicting our vision of modern technology as cold, rational, and without error. Pomara describes his work as “multiplatform painting interfacing with social media while incorporating apps, photos on my iPhone, glitching software and Photoshop.” Entropy and mechanical failure are prevalent themes within his work. In his endeavors to visually represent these errors he utilizes printers, copy machines and the Internet. Even the medium upon which he works is evocative of his underlying message, the industrial surfaces of the aluminum panels complimenting and enhancing his artistic vision. There are many who would argue that making mistakes is part of the creative process, and Pomara's work in part adheres to this sentiment, oftentimes inspired by the paint drips and spills that landed on the newspaper covering his studio floor. John Pomara (b. 1952) received an MFA and a BFA from East Texas State University. Lives in Dallas, Texas.

Artist

Marilyn Minter

Since the 1980s Marilyn Minter has turned her exacting style to sensual subjects such as food, the female body, and the pornography industry. A critical backlash against her explicitly sexual work forced Minter to question the origin of the public’s discomfort with the body and sexuality. She was drawn toward ubiquitous, lascivious—yet not lewd— imagery in popular culture, especially in the fashion world. Minter at first set out to reinvigorate the tropes of fashion photography through fine art, but the juxtaposition of in-your-face beauty with down-and-dirty reality ultimately became her focus. She appropriates the vocabulary of fashion and beauty, and then mars the photoshopped flawlessness and color palette of contemporary advertising with sweat, spit, hair, and dirt. Marilyn Minter (b. 1948 Shreveport, Louisiana) received a BA in 1970 from the University of Florida at Gainesville and an MFA in 1972 from Syracuse University, New York. Lives in New York.

Artist

Matt Kleberg

Matt Kleberg’s paintings of abstracted passages in the form of distorted prosceniums and archways are largely built using oil sticks, which he uses to lay down brightly hued stripes and concentric shapes in cacophonous colors. Structurally, the artist’s engaging, decorative images walk a line between architectural volume and painterly flatness, paying tribute to one of his chief influences, Frank Stella. However, while acknowledging his debt to Stella, Kleberg takes exception to one of Stella’s most famous statements “what you see is what you see.” In contrast, Kleberg believes “we can’t escape the world. It is our visual vocabulary.” Matt Kleberg (b. 1985 Kingsville, Texas) received his BA from the University of Virginia in 2008 and his MFA from the Pratt Institute in 2015. Lives in Brooklyn, New York.

Artist

Maxmilian Schubert

Maximilian Schubert’s paintings draw on a millennia-old process similar to lost wax casting as a means to fundamentally alter the nature of the painterly object. Schubert’s strokes necessitate the removal of material rather than its addition as in a conventional painting; the gouges and alterations of the picture plane result in tense overlays of high and low relief that blur distinctions between surface, support and gesture. Cast in archival polyurethane and fiberglass and finished with trompe l’oeil brushwork, these paintings are a kind of fugitive from sculpture that reimagines the painting as object. Maximilian Schubert (b. 1983) studied at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Lives in Brooklyn, New York.

Artist

Nic Nicosia

From the late 1970s Nic Nicosia staged and constructed sets, objects, and situations to be photographed rather than reproducing something that already exists. These conceptual fabrications ranged from elaborate sets with live actors, to dioramas and abstract constructions. Over the past decade Nicosia has increasingly turned to drawing and sculpture taking what he has learned from his photographic practice to explore time, mortality and memory. This series of graphite drawings is an attempt to visualize time. Referred to the artist as “meditation drawings,” 24 Hours II requires the artist to take on a contemplative state. Keeping count of the lines is essential, each line representing a second in time. Nic Nicosia (b. 1951) received a Bachelor of Science in radio-television-film from the University of North Texas in 1974. Lives in Dallas, Texas.

Night Gallery's "Double Portrait" exhibition by Andy Woll

Exhibition Overview - Night Gallery Present's "Double Portrait" by Andy Woll
May 21 – October 1, 2021

Night Gallery is pleased to present "Double Portrait", an exhibition of new paintings by Andy Woll at Park House in Dallas, Texas.

Andy Woll is a Los-Angeles based artist known for spirited, gestural paintings featuring thick applications of oil paint. Across his body of work he has revisited straightforward subjects – including Los Angeles’ Mt. Wilson, horses, and standing chairs – which through his repeated depictions become contexts for evolving explorations of color and form. Made alongside works of pure abstraction, Woll’s paintings push at the limit of representation, masterfully reigning his seemingly spontaneous brushwork into figuration.

Recent iterations of Woll’s series have found the artist incorporating passages from historic works of art hidden within his paintings of mountains and horses, layering both illusions and allusions within deceptively simple compositions. With playful elegance, these works collapse the lineage of oil painting within singular images, hearkening back to the Old Masters while employing formal strategies out of Modernism. In conversation with the heavy viscosity of Woll’s brushstrokes, which add inches of depth to the painting’s surface, the works become testaments to the history of oil paint not only as a tool of representation but also as a material itself. In his ongoing series we can find the artist delighting in the medium of paint, uncovering new and revelatory possibilities through the act of repetition.

About the Artist...
Andy Woll lives and works in Los Angeles. He has exhibited work at Denny Dimin Gallery, New York, NY; Wilding Cran Gallery, Los Angeles, CA; Blum and Poe, Los Angeles, CA; Rachel Uffner Gallery, New York, NY and others. His work has been featured in Cultured Magazine, Artnet, Two Coats of Paint among others. He is represented by Night Gallery.

Park House Fall/Winter 2020 Exhibition

FALL/WINTER ART ROTATION

Exhibition Overview
Park House's Fall/Winter 2020 exhibition showcased works from its members’ collections, highlighting the work of six women artists. Concepts of deconstruction were explored for this exhibition. By taking a deconstructive approach, in which not one single meaning can be found in a work, but rather many and often conflicting, we were able to discover and better understand underlying and perhaps unspoken thematics and frameworks. We opened the work for interpretation by observation. In each of these works the viewer was only privy to a moment in time, to the equivalent of a film still in a feature film. An instance with endless possibilities, with uncertain beginnings and endings. The placement of the works in the exhibition aimed to provoke a desire to investigate what is not apparent at first glance and produce — rather than presume — meaning to the works and also to place them in conversation with one another. Members were invited to spend time with each piece, to look closely and often. 

The exhibition was curated by Dallas Contemporary’s Deputy Director, Carolina Alvarez-Mathies.

Participating Artists and Member Collections
From the collection of Erin Cluley and Tearlach Hutcheson and the Park House Collection, Katherine Bradford from the collection of Lisa and John Runyon, Sara Cardona from the collection of Carolina Alvarez-Mathies, Michelle Grabner from the collection of Mark Giambrone, Marilyn Minter from the collection of Deborah and John Scott, and Lorna Simpson from the collection of Nancy C.

PLEASE SIGN IN ALL GUESTS by Nick Mele

ABOUT THE ARTIST...
Referred to as "a modern day Slim Aarons" by Town & Country and Veranda Magazine, Mele has had his photographs featured in a myriad of online and print publications including The New York Times, The Financial Times, Architectural Digest, House Beautiful, Vogue and Vanity Fair. His commercial clients include brands such as Ralph Lauren, Sam Edelman, J.McLaughlin and Lilly Pulitzer, as well as several high end hotels and interior designers. Mele's first book, A Newport Summer, was published in May 2022 by Vendome Press. His second book, Palm Beach Living, is due out in February 2023.

ABOUT THE EXHIBITION... 
Nick Mele presents his first collection of limited edition fine art prints. The photo series, titled PLEASE SIGN IN ALL GUESTS, is a flamboyant ode to classic Palm Beach. Primarily a lifestyle, fashion and interior design photographer, Mele is best known for his whimsical take on luxury and elegance. This new series of photographs marks a shift to a new style of decadent storytelling. Mele's irreverent take on timeless, all-American glamour is immediately recognizable, but in this series, he moves past the magazine pages, spinning tales of surreal characters in dreamlike domestic spaces. Documenting a lifestyle at once familiar yet fantastic, Mele's imagery feels like a fanciful peek into the rarefied spaces of Palm Beach society. As viewers, we are offered a glimpse into improbably beautiful spaces that are normally inaccessible to the public eye. 

In this series of large-scale archival photographs, some of Palm Beach's most storied locales are brought to life through Mele's wit and theatricality. Mele's dramatic use of bold color and composition highlight the Colony Hotel's glamorous and luxurious interiors, while Duck's Nest, the historic home of founding Palm Beach homesteaders, becomes the elegant backdrop for serene scenes of domestic life. Through these backdrops and more, we are momentarily free to daydream of another world, in cotton-candy pinks and sky blues, that exists just behind the wrought iron gates.

Artist

Samantha McCurdy

Samantha McCurdy substitutes traditional canvas for thin, stretchable spandex, calling to mind the form-fitting attributes of yoga pants or a swimsuit. Hidden behind the painted stretched fabric, each work conceals spherical objects that bulge beyond the confines of the rectangular frame. Painted in vivid tones of orange and pink, or skin colored hues that more directly allude to the human form. Tightly arranged, each work’s protrusions extend to its neighbor and seemingly reach for physical contact but ultimately never overstep that boundary. Each painting creates moments of tension through its invitation to imagine what lies hidden underneath the delicate surface and through its suggestive physical orientation, all the while maintaining its own unwavering agency. Samantha McCurdy (b. 1989) graduated from Maryland Institute College of Art, Baltimore. Lives in Los Angeles.

Artist

Sarah Crowner

Park House is thrilled to announce the unveiling of a major new site-specific installation by American artist Sarah Crowner. Conceived specifically for Park House, the functional fountain is comprised of hand-glazed ceramic and terra-cotta tiles designed by Crowner and realized in collaboration with Ceramica Suro, Guadalajara. The basin of the fountain contains a unique and expressive composition, illustrative of the artist's singular visual language. Inspired by colors and forms from botany, art history, and modernist architecture, the installation celebrates Crowner's dynamic spatial abstractions and bold use of color, material. and form.

Sarah Crowner (b. 1974, Philadelphia) received her BA from the University of California, Santa Cruz in 1996. She studied at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France, and in 2002, graduated with an MFA from Hunter College, City University of New York. Earlier this year, Crowner was announced as a recipient of the 2019-20 American Academy in Rome Prize. In 2017, Crowner completed a new commissioned project at The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum’s Wright Restaurant. The site-specific installation is comprised of handmade terracotta floor tiles, sewn and painted canvas wall-works, and a curved yellow tiled wall.

Crowner has participated in exhibitions internationally, at venues such as Contemporary Arts Center, New Orleans, LA (2019); Kentucky Museum of Arts and Crafts, Louisville, KY (2018); the Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh, PA (2018); the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit, Detroit, MI (2017); Near East, Istanbul, Turkey (2017); Kunstverein, Amsterdam, Netherlands (2017); MASS MoCA, North Adams, MA (solo) (2016-17); Galerie Nordenhake, Stockholm (solo) (2016); The Jewish Museum, New York (2015); Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, MA (2014); Travesia Cuatro, Guadalajara, Mexico (solo) (2014); Walker Art Center, Minneapolis, MN (2013); WIELS, Contemporary Art Centre, Brussels, Belgium (2013); ICA, Philadelphia, PA (2013); Zacheta National Museum of Art, Warsaw, Poland (2013); Museum of Modern Art, New York (2013); and the 2010 Whitney Biennial, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York.

STEFANIA NAZZAL X PARK HOUSE

About the Exhibition
Lucid Dreams. A color turns and shifts in gradient. Beyond a plane’s oval window, the horizon stretches endlessly. As the sun sets beneath hazy clouds, the mind wanders. These are the fleeting moments that Stefania Nazzal captures in her latest body of work. In a kind of fullness that is attained when one empties the mind and escapes, she alludes to states of consciousness that impart a sharp sensory awareness. As dreamy texts contemplate other ways of being, sheer luminescence promises a world of our own making. It is a world that Nazzal understands.

Where color floods the senses Nazzal points to natural phenomena that are all-encompassing. In a deeply layered artistic process, she meticulously chooses every component and shift in tone as a means of dissecting colors we see in nature and those we don’t. There’s a notion of plenitude in the way hues conjoin and shimmer. Her seemingly contained works incorporate a rich palette of PVC strings that teeter between solidity and fluidity. She has mastered materials, which, known for more pliable forms in friendship bracelets and keychains, are now sculptural flows that stream like thoughts.

In a new series of work, Is This The True Story (2024), Nazzal moves from the sky as her canvas to a monochrome page in which she invites the viewer in. In three gestural forms akin to crumpled paper, she subtly distorts her streaming lines, removing elements of her former work in order to begin anew. Color is subdued and gradient disappears. A steely pastel blue is interrupted by the shock of a bright orange on the backside. By not revealing the full image as flat, Nazzal marks an in-between state, starting and stopping to witness and question reality as one might in a lucid dream.

In this subjective world, a sense of control is relinquished and an unknown narrative unfolds, Revealing traces of her creative process, her new series offers the viewer a peek into the capsule of her mind, in which movement towards another story is shown as a progression, a freeze frame of three moments in time — the idea of suspension. The works unravel and open out from the wall and away from the notion of a solid frame. The plane window turns into a more abstract representation of change and color.

About the Artist
Stefania Nazzal (b. 1976) is a Swiss artist who currently lives and works in Dubai. Nazzal trained at the Cyprus Academy of Art and at Central Saint Martins in London. Working in mixed media, Nazzal weaves together deep colours to create dreamlike often paradoxical compositions, through a meticulous creative process. Through her practice she performs a reflection, refraction and dispersion of light, constructing whimsical colourscapes that depict the spectrum of light in multicolored forms. Driven by nature and natural phenomena, Nazzal strives to craft diverse realms.

All of the works in the show are for sale. To learn more about the artists, pricing and availability, click here.

Steve Wrubel

California Photographer Steve Wrubel uses the things we see around us to celebrate their unique character, power and beauty by creating images that beg the viewer to look more closely at their unique essence.  A stand of Aspen trees separated from their background to draw attention to the particular beauty of the tree.  Three young dreamers on a wooden RIVA in Amalfi showing the viewer what it really feels like to be on top of the world.  A solitary windmill and a dirt road, shrouded in a morning fog shows us what it actually feels like to be in the west, alone and on a ranch, awaiting the day. A solitary Saguaro cactus in Neon Pink stands against a turquoise sky reminding the viewer of the patience and the steadfastness of the mighty, desert Sentinel.

His is a curation of the Art Monitors throughout the club and is constantly changing with new additions so make sure to take a look for something new when you come to visit. He is also known for his large scale works on Paper, Acrylic and Aluminum.

Steve Wrubel (b. U.S.A) received his undergraduate degree from the University of California at Berkeley (1992) and a Masters in Fine Art at the Brooks Institute in California (1995).

Yasumasa Morimura

Yasumasa Morimura is a conceptual photographer and filmmaker. He uses props, costumes, makeup and digital manipulation to reinvent iconic photographs and paintings and challenge the traditional conventions of portraiture. His interpretations of art historical imagery, such as works by Caravaggio, Vermeer and van Gogh; or iconic figures such as Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe and Brigitte Bardot, explore image consumption and the complex nature of Japan’s absorption of Western culture. Although his images are not exact replicas, their uncanny resemblance to historically significant works blend fiction with reality and challenge the viewer’s preexisting associations of the depicted subjects. Self Portrait After Marlene Dietrich celebrates Hollywood-actress Marlene Dietrich, known for her sexy, sultry appeal and unusual personal style in the mid-1900s. Her distinctive androgynous look challenged the notions of femininity, just as Morimura challenges our notions of traditional portraiture. Yasumasa Morimura (b. 1951, Osaka, Japan) graduated from Kyoto City University of Arts in 1978.
