SUMMARY:David Wiseman: Plants\, Minerals\, And Animals
DESCRIPTION:Kasmin is pleased to present a major exhibition of new work by artist and designer David Wiseman (b. 1981). Plants\, Minerals\, and Animals is Wiseman’s first solo presentation at the gallery and will be on view at 515 West 27th Street between March 14 – April 27\, 2019. Bringing together designs conceived and forged in the artist’s Los Angeles studio over the course of the last fifteen years\, the exhibition acts as a culmination of Wiseman’s career thus far. \nWiseman’s work draws inspiration from his fascination with the natural world\, global decorative arts traditions\, and a reverence for honoring timeless craft techniques. Far from reproducing historic design\, however\, he breathes new life into interiors and environments. Porcelain cherry blossom ceilings\, bronze patterned filigree folding screens\, and polished marble and terrazzo inlay furniture affirm and perpetuate the relevance ornament and beauty can play in contemporary architecture and life. \nRooted in an imagined world of drawing\, Wiseman’s creations blossom outward from the page to become sculpture. A deep respect for process\, cultivated during his studies at the Rhode Island School of Design\, demands that Wiseman is intensely involved in every aspect of the production from the initial sketches to bronze casting\, porcelain sculpting\, firing and glazing\, and handmade terrazzo\, all of which happen in the studio in an organic flurry of activity. \nMany of the works are developed with Wiseman working on instinct to configure the pieces by drawing from an encyclopedic collection of prior-made casts formed from the natural world and sculpted forms. Acting as an index of Wiseman’s vocabulary and interest\, Five Panel Screen (2018)\, a large bronze folding screen\, collages nature in varying degrees of abstraction: microscopic forms transmute into sea waves that meld into a trellis of macrame rope\, held together by patterns inspired by traditional Japanese drawings. Lost Valley Mirror (2019)\, an impressive standing mirror\, features a sleeping Capuchin-like monkey resting on its peak\, is framed by a slender twisting tree trunk—an imagined hybrid that integrates several plant and fungi species from Wiseman’s native Los Angeles. \nElsewhere in the exhibition\, Cloud Garden Canopy (2019)\, a ceiling-mounted light sculpture\, depicts an inverted bed of delicately crafted porcelain and dramatic rock crystal. It hangs above the Large Lattice Vortex Dining Table(2019)\, a new design realized in bronze and glass that employs the organic hexagonal and pentagonal patterns that recur as motifs throughout the exhibition. These abstracted forms\, simultaneously surface and structure\, are balanced by the figuration of works such as Bowerbird Table (2019)\, which takes the eccentric Western New Guinea species as its starting point and reimagines the bird’s mating ritual of collecting forest treasures. Playfully including trinkets that could be gathered from within the studio—a sterling silver frog\, blackberries\, seed pods\, geraniums\, and jali patterns—the work demonstrates both the startling intricacy and devotion to nature that combine to characterize Wiseman’s practice.

SUMMARY:Naama Tsabar: Dedicated
DESCRIPTION:Naama Tsabar employs performance\, sculpture\, and photography to subvert the gender roles historically associated with musicianship. In her second exhibition at Kasmin\, Dedicated\, Tsabar further explores these themes by expanding the borders of movement of the female body. For the duration of the exhibition\, Tsabar and a group of female musicians will explore a new vocabulary of movement and sound\, culminating in a performance with Tsabar and her collaborators on the exhibition’s closing night\, May 4\, between 4-6pm. This will be her first performance in New York City since 2017. \nThe exhibition presents three bodies of work that weave together iconic actions and objects from rock music with a more intimate portrayal of the artist’s body and its movement through\, within\, and into the surrounding architecture. Tsabar transforms the gallery space into a site-specific sculptural and sonic installation featuring the broken remains of guitars on the floor\, Melodies of Certain Damage\, connected to the wall-based canvases\, Transitions\, that double as amplifiers. In a series of adjacent photographs\, a female body penetrates and intertwines with walls in the artist’s studio. The motifs of femininity\, gender\, disruption\, destruction\, and reconstruction recur throughout the exhibition. Melodies of Certain Damage takes as its starting point the moment after the climatic break of the electric guitar. By attending to the aftermath\, rather than the destructive act itself\, Tsabar interrogates structures of power\, and reworks the violent act into a new sculptural and performative order. In the quiet of her studio\, Tsabar smashes the bodies of the guitars\, and\, engaging a Dada-esque sense of randomness and play\, maps out the broken pieces where they fall\, affixes the shattered parts to the floor\, and then attaches new strings to reinstate the sculpture’s musical functionality. \nWith the works installed in the gallery\, each Melody is plugged into one of the Transition canvases\, works that Tsabar has repurposed the internal and external components of the amplifier—wires\, speaker\, circuit board—to create a new formal visual experience whilst retaining the object’s ability to broadcast sound. Tsabar then invites a group of female musicians to collaboratively compose a unique composition on the sculptures. Activating the Melodies requires the performers to insert their bodies\, either sitting or lying\, into the spaces between the fragments. By dispersing the centralized phallic order of the objects and the position of the body in relation\, Tsabar and the performers assume the reclining physical position as an act of sensual\, creative and non-hierarchical power.

SUMMARY:Jan-Ole Schiemann: A Different Pose
DESCRIPTION:Kasmin is pleased to present A Different Pose\, the gallery’s first solo exhibition of new paintings by Cologne-based artist Jan-Ole Schiemann. Schiemann’s paintings are grounded in both gestural abstraction and the history of 20th-century animation\, aspects that combine to imbue his work with a rare sense of kinetic energy. Half-formed\, simultaneously disappearing and reappearing shapes suggest that somewhere amidst the lines\, there are figures tumbling\, colliding\, or fighting obscured by clouds of smoke. As a result of Schiemann’s meticulous\, layered application of charcoal\, oilstick\, ink and acrylic\, the works have the illusion of both a sculptural and a digital depth. The artist’s first solo exhibition at Kasmin will be comprised of new medium-scale and monumental paintings\, as well as the debut of a new series of works on paper. \nSchiemann’s process begins with the collection of references—cut-outs from cartoon strips\, elements from his own drawing process—which the artist then collages onto transparencies and projects against the canvas. Using primarily ink on the unprimed surface\, Schiemann uses sweeping gestures to build the dynamic base of the picture plane before moving on to more precise\, illustrative detailing. The works are then built up to fruition carefully\, introducing exuberant color and spontaneity as Schiemann reimagines the projected configurations. \nThe series of works on paper demonstrates Schiemann’s commitment to drawing\, and its fundamental place in his oeuvre. Appearing as a consolidation of fragments of many sketches bought together into balanced coherence\, the works give further insight into Schiemann’s process and highlight the strength of his forms. \nJan-Ole Schiemann has mounted solo shows recently at CHOI&LAGER Gallery\, Seoul\, South Korea (2018); Nino Mier Gallery\, Los Angeles (2017\, 2015) and Half Gallery\, New York\, (2015). Schiemann was also included in curated exhibitions such as Cliché\, Almine Rech Gallery\, New York (2018); Abstract/Not Abstract\, curated by Jeffrey Deitch and Larry Gagosian\, Moore Building\, Miami (2017); Prinz – the Ghosts are Outside\, Kreuzberg Pavilion\, Berlin (2015); and 17 Abstract Paintings\, Warhus Rittershaus\, Cologne (2014) amongst others.  He is a graduate of the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf under Albert Oehlen and Andreas Schulze (2007-2013) and currently lives and works in Cologne\, Germany.
