Group show organized around playing cards by David Gimbert at Miyako Yoshinaga Gallery.
PACS Gallery was forced to move from its former location above the Williamsburg Public Assembly and now temporarily resides in Ben Sisto’s apartment, thus the name of this group show which included work by Leah Beeferman & Pierre Le Hors, Phillip Birch, Reade Bryan, Suzanne Coady, Elizabeth Ebright, Garrol Gayden, Cody Hoyt, E.E. Ikeler, Michael Pellew, Joshua Caleb Weibley, Amanda B. Friedman, Kenya Hanley, Denise Kupferschmidt, Ben Sisto, Joshua Smith and Jeffrey Tranchell. I named Reade Bryan’s piece “Pushmi-Pullyu” the day before APACSment Show opened.
Permanent Collection was an exhibition organized by Ben Sisto and Denise Kupferschmidt of art artists collect for themselves. My friend and colleague Reade Bryan contributed two pieces: a playing card I gave him on my birthday and a painting salvaged from outside the studio of Chris Martin. I contributed a rectilinear chunk of paint formed layer by layer by Nick Parker.
I was added to White Columns’ Curated Artist Registry, which is an online registry of contemporary artists. I don’t believe he was the individual that reviewed and accepted my portfolio, but I was surprised to receive the acceptance email from Jeff Eaton—White Columns’ curatorial assistant and archivist—whose work also appeared with mine in the group show Top/Less. I initially wondered how Jeff got my address and what he could possibly be emailing about…
Live/Work, Die Hard was an exhibition in the recently vacated Gowanus studio of Stephen Talasnik. It included work by Piotr Shtyk, Ye Qin Zhu, Joshua Caleb Weibley and Stephen Madden. One of the pieces was a usable trampoline made from a rectangle of chain-link fencing, which was supremely cool.
I was an artist-in-residence at the Edna St. Vincent Millay Colony for the Arts during the month of April. There with me were Donna Stonecipher, Kendra DeColo, Karen Lepri, Evan Allgood, Frances Rabkin and Ariel Dunitz-Johnson. While there I completed work on drawings for an edition called “Engineering Forms” involving moiré patterns. I stole a post card from between the pages of a book in the colony’s library: it was an invitation to a screening in the early 1970s of a film by Yvonne Rainer. I mailed it to my friend Christhian Diaz, as I thought he would love it more than anyone else likely to come across it at the library.
Flashfl00d was a “dead drop” exhibition curated by Kelani Nicole for Little Berlin. It included work by Marjorie Gorgonis, Alexandra Gorczynsky & Philipp Teiser, Joshua Caleb Weibley, JD Kramer, Craig Scheihing, Jon Fay and Jonathan Santoro.
I Choo-Choo-Choose You was a group show at the studio collaborative Way Farers in Bushwick. Each member of Way Farers invited a friend to present a piece and also invite another of their own friends to present work. I was invited by Way Farer Craig Hein.
