DENNY DIMIN GALLERY NEW YORK

-
 

Timeframe features two ongoing bodies of work that investigate memory, illness, and the relationships we build in the spaces we create for learning and labor.

Live Study appears in its two forms -- as a series of oil portraits and related color studies and as an archive of 850 hours of live-streamed video documenting the artist’s painting sessions to date. The subjects of the paintings are Mandiberg’s former studio assistants surrounded by the instruments and technologies they used and imagery from projects they worked on. The exhibition includes the first chapters of this ongoing project, from 2004 to 2009, presented chronologically in clockwise order. The size of each portrait corresponds with the number of hours the assistant worked, and the pricing corresponds with the total amount they were paid. The artist has made two copies of each portrait, one of which they will give to each former assistant as a gift and one of which is on view here.

In 2019, The Whitney Museum of American Art’s artport platform began exhibiting the Live Study videos, which now extend for nearly a thousand hours. These videos will run throughout the exhibition.

Michael Mandiberg, Selection of the Zoom Paintings. Oil on canvas. Each 6 x 11 in/15 x 28 cm.

Michael Mandiberg began the second body of work in the exhibition, Zoom Paintings, during the early days of the coronavirus pandemic. As a coping mechanism and a way to memorialize this new yet increasingly common form of human interaction, Mandiberg began painting the skewed backgrounds of participants from their numerous Zoom meetings. Mandiberg paints the bedrooms, office spaces, kitchens, empty walls, ceilings, and views out their windows in 6 x 11 inches, the proportions of a Zoom video. The artist has, however, omitted the figure that sat there, reinforcing a sense of loneliness and disembodiment. The Zoom Paintings continue Live Study’s themes of memory, loss and isolation, and likewise posit survival through support and connection.

During the exhibition, one painting at a time is on view online in a Zoom meeting, accessible through the gallery’s Virtual platform and a tablet in this room.


The exhibition will be open Tuesday to Saturday, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. The gallery will be closed from November 25-27 (Thanksgiving).

Masks required for entry.

Politics As Usual Or Is It?

                                                  As the fight for equality and justice continues, many have opinions on things that should take place during this time and through this era of life; with former President Trump facing his third indictment and Governor DeSantis loosing his backing and support from investors. It leaves most to wonder what is taking place in the political parties, there level of professionalism and the image that they portray to the citizens of this country. There is also the issues that are not being fully spoken about on news channels, issues such as current President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden being under investigation for his ties in Ukraine and the damaging information that was found on his computer. The fact that it was said that he plead guilty to these charges that were brought against him in federal court about his business practices does not seem to touch the air ways in the manner that it should.
