This show is going to be a motherfucker:
IMAGE OBJECT
featuring Kate Steciw, Artie Vierkant, Travess Smalley, and Andrea Longacre-White
@ FOXY PRODUCTION, 6/1 - 7/13
“Image Object is a group exhibition that considers the relationship between images and objects in the age of digital media. With prints, sculptures and collages by ANDREA LONGACRE-WHITE, TRAVESS SMALLEY, KATE STECIW, and ARTIE VIERKANT, the exhibition probes the ways in which artists negotiate both gallery space and online space. With visual content transposed and modified across digital platforms, notions of what an artwork can be are in flux, not unlike the way personal identities are shape-shifting across social networks. The works in Image Object reflect these developments.”

this looks cool
Printed Matter present an extensive exhibit of artist books by Canadian pioneering conceptual artist, Garry Neill Kennedy, opening on Thursday, April 12th 2012, at their storefront in New York… The show, curated by Adam O’Reilly, will present over 100 of Kennedy’s artist’s books as well as accompanying posters, silkscreen prints, photos, and ephemera. The exhibition will run from April 12th to May 30th at the Printed Matter storefront. You are invited to join for a launch on Thursday, April 12th, from 6 to 8pm. “Kennedy’s double life as an art administrator had a significant influence on his artwork, with his sharp wit and humor, the books in this exhibit range from institutional critiques, political and social investigations, to appropriated New Yorker cartoons.”

April 18, 2012–April 29, 2013
The Edward Steichen Photography Galleries, third floor
This exhibition, covering the period from 1910 to today, offers a critical reassessment of photography’s role in the avant-garde and neo-avant-garde movements—with a special emphasis on the medium’s relation to Dada, Bauhaus, Surrealism, Constructivism, New Objectivity, Conceptual, and Post-Conceptual art—and in the development of contemporary artistic practices.
The shaping of what came to be known as “New Vision” photography bore the obvious influence of “lens-based” and “time-based” works. El Lissitzky best summarized its ethos: “The new world will not need little pictures,” he wrote in The Conquest of Art (1922). “If it needs a mirror, it has the photograph and the cinema.”
Bringing together over 250 works from MoMA’s collection, the exhibition features major projects by Man Ray, László Moholy-Nagy, Aleksandr Rodchenko, Germaine Krull, Gerhard Rühm, Helen Levitt, Daido Moriyama, Robert Heinecken, Ed Ruscha, Martha Rosler, Bernd and Hilla Becher, Philip-Lorca DiCorcia, and Walid Raad, among others. Photographic history is presented as a multivalent history of distinct “new visions,” rooted in unconventional and innovative exercises that range from photograms and photomontages to experimental films and photobooks.
Organized by Roxana Marcoci, Curator, Department of Photography.

so excited for this.
Wish I could get to this, I saw him speak at SPE Northeast back in the fall, it was awesome. Check it out if you’re in the area!Bill Hunt’s talk at Aperture last October was such a hit that he’s been asked to present it again. He’s pumping even more life into this one, so if you have the opportunity to see it, you should!
I will be giving an artist talk at Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, NY on Thursday, Feb. 16th at 12:45.
Thanks so much to Bobby Walsh and all the photo students for inviting me!
