David von Bahr Gets ‘Energized’ at Gallery Steinsland Berliner
Often lacking a recognizable face or shape, abstract works are magic for the imagination as they leave loose interpretations--allowing viewers to impose their own meanings and interpretations without constraint. Swedish painter, David von Bahr, exercises abstraction through personal motion and physical movements. He relies on both methodical and intuitive approaches to create an obtrusive mash of paint and strokes on canvas. The artist is currently the focus of a solo show called Energized at Gallery Steinsland Berliner in Stockholm, Sweden. On view through April 5, the presentation features a bold selection of abstract pieces. One work looks like it’s on fire, entangled in a forest of wispy flames set against a black backdrop. Another painting, seemingly features a stack of spliced bio ma...

Leigh Bowery Receives An Appropriately Extravagant Retrospective At Tate Modern
It's an entirely impossible feat to capture the extraordinarily outrageous life of Leigh Bowery, but a retrospective at Tate Modern feels like an honorable place to start. Bowery was a larger than life figure who permeated all aspects of modern culture, even still to this day. From performance artist to club promoter to model, Bowery's wild eclecticism escaped all formal boundaries of definition. Bowery initially rose to fame as a club promoter and underground performance artist in 1980s London, among other things, working the door for the short-lived but infamous nightclub Taboo. Known as one of the hardest doors and hottest places to be, Bowery, alongside a generation of club kids, cultivated a defiant art scene that did not flinch in the face of their political context. For the first ti...

Paul Pfeiffer Unpacks Society’s Obsession with Celebrity and Spectacle in Guggenheim Bilbao Survey
For American artist Paul Pfeiffer, an image is a door into the collective consciousness.

After debuting at MOCA's Geffen Contemporary in Los Angeles, Prologue to the Story of the Birth of Freedom makes sense of our fixation on the spectacular, shining a light on the moments and images that make us.Drawing a connection between religious icons and the contemporary cult of celebrity – pop stars, act...
