SUMMARY:Nicky Broekhuysen: The Wind in High Places
DESCRIPTION:Davidson Gallery is pleased to present The Wind in High Places\, an exhibition of new paintings on linen by Nicky Broekhuysen (b. 1981\, Cape Town\, RSA). While she has not abandoned her signature use of 1s and 0s\, this show – Broekhuysen’s third with the gallery – marks a shift in her practice. That shift was initiated in 2019 when she moved from Berlin to the French Pyrenees. The change from the city to nature was also a move from noise to quietness. In the quietness of the mountains\, Broekhuysen found new things to hear and new conversations to have. \n  \nIn the years since adopting her use of binary code as building blocks for her work\, much has changed. As we move from a binary world to a world of quantum computing and artificial intelligence\, that notion of a binary world must move too. Broekhuysen’s work has always been about change and the possibility for change inherent in the potential of the one and zero of binary code. By placing the ideas of ‘binary’ to the side\, the artist began to see the 1 and 0 more in terms of their original forms: a line and a circle. The line began to embody the idea of the individual or separateness – quite literally “I” – and the circle as a representation of the connected whole. \n  \nChange from the perspective of living in a city can often appear rapid and brutal. In nature\, however\, there is a subtlety to the way that change reveals itself. There is a slowness to the passing of time: one has to pay attention to catch the many subtle moments of transition as the colors change from one season to the next. In The Wind in High Places\, light\, form\, and color meld to create barely perceived land- and skyscapes. Mountains seem to emerge from mist as background colors combine with Broekhuysen’s pointillist method. The palette used in this exhibition captures the metamorphosis of the mountain slopes from the coolness of winter to the first vibrant green moments of spring. For in nature\, we indeed feel home and as we locate ourselves (the “I”) within the circle\, we again feel ourselves as part of a collective world plugged into the network of nature. \n  \nNicky Broekhuysen was born in 1981 in South Africa. At the age of 13 her family moved to New Zealand where she completed her studies. After graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree from Auckland University\, she moved to Shanghai\, China in 2006. It was in Shanghai that she first began working with binary numbers 1 and 0. In 2008 Broekhuysen moved to Berlin\, Germany where she continued to develop her language of binary code\, exhibiting both in Berlin and internationally for the following 11 years. Recently\, in 2019 she has relocated her studio to The Pyrenees in France to be closer to nature and where she continues to create and exhibit.

SUMMARY:George Rickey: A Survey
DESCRIPTION:Davidson Gallery presents\, George Rickey: A Survey\, an exhibition of works by acclaimed sculptor George Rickey. This show marks the 18th solo exhibition at the gallery for George Rickey\, dating back to their first collaboration in the 1970s. Rickey’s work runs the gamut from intimate and delicate to monumental. Throughout his career\, George Rickey refused to be pigeonholed\, constantly reimagining kinetic sculpture and always trying to define motion in ways that other artists did not. From his earliest hanging sculptures\, reminiscent of Alexander Calder’s mobiles\, to his first major outdoor work which is now in the collection of MoMA\, Rickey constantly changed scale\, material\, form\, and technology\, but always with a throughline of motion that was his legacy. \nRickey approached his art with a constructivist mindset\, he was both a collector of Constructivist material (his collection of Constructivist works is now at the Neuberger Museum) and close friends with Antoine Pevsner and Naum Gabo. His most well-known works – those made of brushed stainless steel forms – epitomize the austerity of Constructivism\, but also the forward-looking\, self-aware stance that art is and must be socially integrated. Rickey’s work\, cutting through space\, defining motion\, intimating identifiable forms while maintaining its abstraction\, remains masterful and contemporary.
