mind framed
saw those pieces from kolkoz at the last armory show (galerie emmanuel perrotin) and thought that it was pretty smart. in reality, those stuff are very huge and bold with a lot of nice details! don’t like the guys though. by pp’
Philip-Lorca DiCorcia at david zwirner
if you’re around, check out Philip-Lorca DiCorcia’s show of “one thousand” at david zwirner gallery, beside the work that is great as usual, the installation is really well done, it displays the images as a single sequence. unexpected association of images. a must. by pp’

On Kawara’s mad epic sculpture
“right now at David Zwirner Gallery, you can dip into one of the weirder artistic rivers of the last 40 years and behold—or participate in—on kawara’s mad epic sculpture–performance One Million Years. the japanese-born, new york–based artist’s rarely seen work is centered around a desk and two chairs in a windowed booth at the center of the otherwise almost empty zwirner gallery. during business hours, two volunteers sit inside the room. one man and one woman take turns reading progressive dates going one million years into the future or into the past. several fridays ago, i spent an hour reading the 875 years between a.d. 38,658 and a.d. 39,533. it was one of the odder hours i’ve ever spent in a gallery.” JS for New York. by dd

sugimoto 7 days / 7 nights
worth checking out the Sugimoto show at Gagosian. nothing new but still one of the best, some of the night shots are almost 100% black but you still want them so bad that you feel possessed…
the book, printed for the show, is great too. the design reflect the setting of the gallery, well done! by pp
