"Kennedy Yanko presented her largest exhibition to date - 30 crushed metal and "paint skin" sculptures packing a resonating gravitational punch. The exhibit was dual: in Tribeca, "Epithets" at James Cohan Gallery was a gray-walled gritty exhibition, while "Retro Future" at Salon 94 on the Upper East Side occupied all three floors that crescendoed into sunlit rooms and a bonus group exhibition curated by the artist."
"Gagosian Gallery presented a crowd-gathering trio of Jeff Koons' "Hulk" sculptures at Frieze this year, in a booth fully designed and conceived by the artist. Though each appears to be an inflatable, they are all actually wrought in a heavy polychromed bronze. Branch-like structures intertwine with clock faces and reflections in Alicja Kwade's "Telos Tales" exhibition at Pace Gallery, offering a hypnotic and sensory-heightening experience of material, movement, and time."
Ai Weiwei repurposes hundreds of thousands of LEGO and WOMA bricks to pixelate and abstract famous works across two New York exhibitions. Jennifer J. Lee paints 11 photorealistic works on rough burlap that absorbs pigment and lets the woven grid become part of the imagery. Julian Opie reduces detail into bold graphic forms that shift from representational at distance to abstract on close inspection. Kennedy Yanko presents 30 crushed metal and "paint skin" sculptures across two venues, contrasting gritty Tribeca galleries with sunlit, multi-floor installations. Jeff Koons' 'Hulk' figures resemble inflatables but are heavy polychromed bronze, while Alicja Kwade stages branch-like, clock-infused structures to heighten temporal perception; nearly fifty early Andy Warhol ink drawings were also shown.
