Holton Rouer / Pour Paintings
Showing at The Hole (New York) until May 28th is a solo exhibition of 19 Pour paintings filling the entire gallery space. Rower makes these paintings by pouring fantastic quantities of doctored paint onto plywood: however, the simplicity of this description belies the shocking and unexpected results. The paint flows slowly and determinedly over the surfaces he creates, timed to dry and spread at just the right rate, in color combinations both highly premeditated and fancifully spontaneous. The sloes of paint often fracture, vacillate, clump up, and extrude. Fissures and zigzags abound, as do waterfalls, U-turns, and smears, but always the flow triumphs. The textures of paint, mixed on occasion with reflective elements, opalescent admixtures, and spicy sparkling polishes, vary widely and behave differently. This video of the Pour painting creation, is truly hypnotic at times.

Lee Eunyeol / Light installations
“Starry night expresses private spaces given by night and various emotions that are not able to be defined and described in the space. I’ve chosen analogue type for the expression which attempts to install electric bulbs in an objet to be expressed using back space of night by taking advantage of huge studio. There are two spaces in photographs. One is a space before electric bulbs of familiar landscape are installed and the other is a space after electric bulbs expressed by dispersing personal emotion are installed. Unified light from these two spaces generates a mysterious landscape.”

Gareth Britzman / Bottle canopy
Taking an everyday object and seeing the potential for abstraction and amplification takes a true visionary. I love the simplicity and impact of this car canopy made from plastic bottles and different coloured water. Hats off to you Gareth Britzman.

Matter / Quayola
Matter is a time-based digital sculpture; a celebration of matter itself, the substance of all physical things. It describes a continuous dynamic articulation of a solid, pure block of matter, from the simplest primitive forms to the highest details of geometric complexities, and vice versa.
Marco Casagrande’s Sandworm
45-meters long, 10-meters wide installation on the dunes of the Wenduine coastline, Belgium. Part architecture, part environmental art, the whole piece is made out of willow, allowing light and shadows to create an awesome spectacle to everyone who sees it.
