SUMMARY:Katinka Lampe: Bubble
DESCRIPTION:Katinka Lampe has long shaped her portraits in the interstices between figuration and abstraction. Bypassing depiction\, Lampe imbues her work with hints of broader societal motifs\, leaving subtle signs for the viewer to follow into a deeper look. Her most recent series Bubble\, on view at Elizabeth Houston Gallery from September 22 to November 13\, 2021\, is a true sign of the times. \nMade in 2020\, Lampe’s paintings echo with concerns and considerations endemic to the year of their production. Working in confinement during a global pandemic\, her private experiences had become universal ones\, but in the most unusual of ways. Quarantine had thrust so many into private worlds of their own\, the world over. The space of the home suddenly became the bubble separating us from others\, and from other viewpoints. Like internet activist Eli Pariser’s concept of the “filter bubble\,” our individual informational spheres carved out by invisible algorithmic editing of the web\, the “home bubble” had narrowed our experiences to the familiar. But for Lampe\, reworking the stillness of that space into a creative focus had become her novel distraction from the otherwise unchanging progression of days. \nHer paintings are portraits of the solitude of 2020. In each\, we are at pains to say where her depiction ends and impressions begin. Veiling her models\, Lampe obscures their faces\, revealing only a sliver of a profile turned away from the viewer in some instances. Colored layers that bisect her portraits and cut her canvases into sections preclude any overly literal associations. Other faces press against the edges of the frame\, refusing eye contact\, or hide themselves from our gaze behind their hands\, blankets\, or clothing. One wears a balaclava. \nLampe’s work is more a study of alienation and silence than it is a representation of others. In keeping with that emotional undercurrent\, she has restrained her palette. In muted gray tones or pitch black\, Lampe explores the absence of light falling on features. She has honed in on the details in this series\, and yet her portraits are not of anyone or even anything in particular. One imagines that some of her figures might be found lingering in the background of old master paintings. There is no one taking center stage here. The bubble itself makes an appearance\, metaphorically\, of course\, and literally\, too\, in the form of chewing gum. A rosy pink orb conceals her models’ faces. Casting their glances downward toward it\, they look more bored than satisfied\, more absent than present. \nIn Bubble\, Lampe has painted her experience of the pandemic\, oscillating between seeking and denying\, between presence and absence. And yet\, as is her custom\, she has removed herself as much as possible from her work. This series is unique in that we—in our separate but similar bubbles—are there in the paintings\, and removed from them\, too. \n– Robyn Day \nRobyn Day is a Chicago-based photographer and freelance writer for Photograph Magazine.

SUMMARY:Daniela Edburg: Waning
DESCRIPTION:Daniela Edburg\nWaning\nJuly 21 – September 11\, 2021 \nOn view at Elizabeth Houston Gallery from July 21 to September 11\, Daniela Edburg: Waning is an aesthetic exercise in free association\, one that draws to the surface of consciousness the delicate symbiosis between human and glacial bodies. Following a thread of thought from her own autoimmune disease to the perils of climate change\, Edburg reimagines—in photographic form and felted wool—the tale of Frankenstein as a parable for global warming. \nEdburg has long worked in the in-betweens of reality and imagination\, crocheting and knitting objects into her compositions as a kind of hand-made fiction. She is most interested in those artistic places where opposites meet and concepts contradict themselves\, where the disconnection imposed by bodily illness is overcome by the connections of human creativity. When the summer of 2016 dealt Edburg an unexpected three-month convalescence in bed\, recovering from an affliction that left her feeling every inch of her body as a living bruise\, she turned—perhaps empathetically—to Mary Shelley’s 1818 novel Frankenstein. The glacial landscape that set the stage for Shelley’s drama drew her attention. \nNavigating her own recovering body\, Edburg planned a voyage to Mer de Glace\, the “sea of ice” in the Alps where Dr. Frankenstein expresses his only moments of joy. But what Shelley’s protagonist describes as a scene of “sublime ecstasy that gave wings to the soul\,” Edburg found gravely imperiled. Climate change is melting the largest glacier in France at an alarming rate. For Edburg\, Frankenstein’s abandonment of his creature parallels our lack of stewardship of nature. The consequences of our apathy are the global warming that endangers our lives and the environmental degradation that causes illness. \nWith Shelley’s tale as an unconscious guide\, Edburg has captured the likenesses of those glaciers in felt\, preserving them in sculptural cedarwood boxes like rare and tiny specimens. The waning of the icebergs\, recast by the artist in dripping felted wool\, serves as a warning of impending environmental catastrophe. In photographic form\, human bodies afflicted with autoimmune diseases mimic the scattered disorder of the remaining ice. In other images\, we hold in our hands (or hairdos) the effects of climate change—volatile weather patterns that generate tornadoes and other superstorms with increased frequency. \nBut Edburg is also\, in some sense\, a Romantic at heart\, albeit one with Gothic leanings. Her Wanderers stare into the expanses of the natural world\, recalling Caspar David Friedrich’s 1818 Wanderer above the Sea of Fog\, a painting that has oftentimes served as a cover for Shelley’s novel. But where Friedrich’s landscape is a moment of sublimity revealing our place in nature\, both insignificant and transcendent at once\, Edburg’s photographs reflect the diminishment of the glaciers through our own doing. \nIn Waning\, our relation to the natural world is one that is deeply interconnected\, bodily\, emotionally\, mentally and spiritually. Like Frankenstein and his creature\, we are locked in a cycle of mutual creation and destruction. We cannot stand apart. \nDaniela Edburg attended the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) where she earned her Bachelor’s degree from the School of Visual Arts. Edburg was born in 1975 in Houston\, Texas and currently lives and works in San Miguel de Allende\, Mexico. Solo and group exhibitions include Musée du Quai Branly\, Paris\, France\, Photographic Centre Manuel Álvarez Bravo\, Oaxaca City\, Mexcio\, San Diego Museum of Photographic Arts\, CA\, Contemporary Musuem of Art\, Ivanova\, Russia and The Denver Art Museum\, CO.

SUMMARY:Robyn Day: Nobody Knows Exhibition Opening
DESCRIPTION:Tell all the truth but tell it slant — \nSuccess in Circuit lies \nToo bright for our infirm Delight \nThe Truth’s superb surprise \nAs Lightning to the Children eased \nWith explanation kind \nThe Truth must dazzle gradually \nOr every man be blind — \n– Emily Dickinson \nOn view at Elizabeth Houston Gallery from April 28 to July 9\, Nobody Knows promises to “tell all the truth but tell it slant.” Representing queer history by intentionally obfuscating it\, Robyn Day’s paradoxical archive plays with the materiality of photographic substrates\, deeply wedding process to the significations of its portraits. \nWith no officially sanctioned narratives of its own\, LGBTQ histories are carefully pieced together through acts of rediscovery\, reassembling\, and reinterpretation\, often from the annals of legal or medical proceedings that speak with a pathological cast. Day transforms that fundamental method of piecemeal recovery into an artistic process\, using materials and their physical “memory” as metaphors for the “love that dare not speak its name” throughout history. Layering\, scraping\, scratching\, and crinkling photographs\, and transforming their surfaces with ink\, charcoal\, pigments\, or even boiling water and ice\, Day reworks images as they develop and after\, moving seamlessly between analog and digital alterations. The cumulative effects of this slow process of development are a kind of theater of inscrutability. It is no longer possible to discern how each photograph was made\, nor how many times or by what means transfigured. \nIn this way\, Nobody Knows mimics the ambiguities of queer history through a performance of process. Masquerading as an unearthed archive\, Day’s series of portraits\, ironically\, faithfully and freely represents queer identity on its own terms. With the act of inventing an archive paralleling queer performativity\, Nobody Knows renders the presence of its subjects–long denied or hidden from view in historical records–through an intentional evasion of strict documentation. Instead\, the experimentation of material processes surpasses the aesthetic of salvaged evidence of the past\, and becomes a chrysalis for identity. Just as their photographic substrates are reassembled and transformed\, layered and reworked\, so too are the people within the portraits\, who carve space for themselves and their communities in times and places that are not always welcoming\, asserting their personhood with grace and poise. \nDay’s artistic process reflects the artist’s subject matter\, with a performance of the archive–one that creates rather than tracks the “truth”–echoing the performative of gender expression for the camera. Combining found images with contemporary portraits\, Day makes each anachronistic in its own way\, removing Polaroid emulsion from its casing or rephotographing prints underwater. The sum of these acts of conceptual experimentation is a body of political portraiture that needles at heteronormative and gender-normative assumptions. \nWith compositional layering a metaphor for identity\, Nobody Knows becomes a paradox of representation\, one that freely represents the beauty and presence of each person pictured through its experimental approach to conveying the failed representation of queer lives throughout history. \nRobyn Day graduated with an MFA from Columbia College Chicago in 2017\, receiving the Graduate Merit Award. Day currently lives and works in Chicago\, IL. Solo and group exhibitions include Elizabeth Houston Gallery\, New York\, NY\, Cornel Henry Art\, San Diego\, CA\, Plummer Park Great Hall\, West Hollywood\, CA\, ILHAM Gallery\, Kuala Lumpur\, Malaysia\, Berlin Blue Art\, Berlin\, Germany\, The Mint Museum\, Charlotte\, NC\, Toshima Center Square\, Tokyo\, JP\, Panopticon Gallery\, Boston\, MA\, Nappe Arsenale Nord\, Venice\, IT\, Arc Gallery\, San Francisco\, CA\, Schneider Art Gallery\, Chicago\, IL\, Hannah Bacol Busch Gallery\, Houston\, TX and Samson Projects\, Boston\, MA. Robyn has received press coverage in Vogue Italia\, the South Bend Tribune\, the Northwest Indiana Times\, Dig The Dunes\, The Advocate and The Charlotte Observer. A 2016 Stuart Abelson Graduate Research Fellow\, Day was also an Athens Photo Festival Finalist and Julia Margaret Cameron Award Finalist in 2015 and an Anne Louise Barrett Fellowship recipient in 2014.
