robin rhode

Robin Rhode's show at Perry Rubenstein gallery (I've written about it earlier), new york was reviewed in the New York Times yesterday. I'm really happy for him and his family who had all been in Ney York last week to support him. The articel written by Carol Kino is really funny to read especially when you know robin (which I do ;-).

For the artist, this show is something of a departure. Now 31, he has been known primarily for performances, photographs and video animations in which he interacts in a remarkably realistic fashion with a two-dimensional drawing of some everyday object, like a bicycle or a car. This time, along with the photographic work, he is offering something quite different: his first 16-millimeter film; a long video made in collaboration with a dancer and a cellist; and several editioned sculptures, including a dozen abalone shells cast in chalk and charcoal [...]

Jerry Saltz has been spotted hanging around at the galleries several times. Let's see what he's going to write about Robin's show!? Curious about how the show looks like? Please check out the gallerie's website.
