Presents:
VIDEO SCULPTURE
DAAP Galleries invites our audience into the world of three-dimensional objects with integrated video components. These pioneers of media art have been preoccupied with examining the relationships that arise from the living world interacting with the artificial. This type of work has taken on many characteristics, from the monumental to the intimate, yet always alluding to self. As media technologies develop, it seems that the artists’ perception, relationship, and execution continue to push our understanding of reality and sense of self.

Featuring the work of Artists:
Gagik Aroutiunian, Jimmy Baker, Amy Jenkins,
Tony Luensman, Nam June Paik, Mark Patsfall,
Fabrizio Plessi, Alan Rath, Annie Sprinkle,
Annie Strader, Robyn Tomlin and Amy Youngs

Pared: Works by Matthew Deleget and Ellen Nagel

April 2nd - 30th, 2011

Opening reception: Saturday, April 2nd, 7-10:00pm

For Pared, U·turn Art Space presents works by Matthew Deleget and Ellen Nagel that consider reduction as a maneuver in painting, sculpture throughout art history. Deleget presents a series of monochrome works on panel, along with a long-term and ongoing conceptual project based in the collection of artist catalogues that have been purchased at deeply discounted prices. Nagel has created a number of brand new sculptural installations for the exhibition. Together, Deleget’s and Nagel’s work continues a line of inquiry into reduction and restraint in which U·turn is persistently invested.

People Who Make Us Smile

March 5th—26th, 2011

Opening reception: Saturday, January 5th, 7:00 – 10:00 pm

Cincinnati, OH—U·turn Art Space is pleased to announce People Who Make Us Smile, a group exhibition featuring Meg Duguid, Charley Friedman, Russell Ihrig, Jonathan Juravich, Cary Leibowitz and a collaborative project by Loraine Wible and Chris Reeves. Through sound pieces, sculpture, photography, video, installation, screen printing and a collaborative project designed especially for and executed by U·turn, these artists present works that are quirky, upbeat and dryly self-deprecating. Certainly contemporary uses of humor in Art have its origins in the history of Pop Art, but these artists use punch lines and visual comedic timing in a direct way that critically asks, What is funny? Is that funny? and much more broadly, How can humor be used effectively in an art gallery to touch upon subjects without frivolity? Often, the answers these artists come up with relate to the iconography of celebrities, shared pop cultural knowledge and eager (or else effacing) means of addressing the viewer directly. People Who Make Us Smile is an exercise in admiration, a blame game that reveals why we see the world the way we do. As a gallery, these are the artists who make us smile. But the artists themselves defer to another cast of characters: family relatives, Liza Minnelli, Bart Simpson and Gandhi are but a few of the depicted, with whom we share our glee.


Cincinnati Art Museum


MARCH 2nd. 7pm
Lightborne Lecture: Philip-Lorca di Corcia


Philip-Lorca diCorcia is among the most recognized photo-based artists working anywhere in the world today. His images build on a fascination with the “look” of ordinariness and the snapshot and extend to far more complex references to advertising, film and popular culture and media, doing so through an ambiguous, quasi-documentary style. The artist will discuss the trajectory of his storied career as well as acclaimed recent series of works.

Free. Reservations not required
Parking $4.00; Art Museum members park free.

Ryan Mulligan: "Channel Surfing Till Sunday"

Exhibition Dates: March 5 – 26, 2011

Opening Reception: Saturday, March 5, 7-10 pm

Regular gallery hours: 12-4, Saturdays and by appointment


semantics Gallery is proud to present “Channel Surfing Till Sunday,” new works by Ryan Mulligan. Images generated while multi-tasking on his sofa. Mulligan draws while absorbing romantic comedies, and bouncing his infant son in a floor seat. The images are abstract, glowing, and folkish, residing somewhere between a child’s scrawl in marker and an educated draftsman. Re-interpreted in the studio into highly layered and weathered paintings they are stream of consciousness process paintings forced into a self imposed time management system. His massive site- specific wall paintings metaphorically captures the mental state of an overgrown teen trying to enjoy the state fair while hallucinating from a spoiled cheesesteak. Both real and imagined imagery become disparate props expelled from a phantasmic cartoon.

Opening Celebration
Jimmy Baker and Keith Haring - opens tonight at 8pm

Keith Haring (show up runs through September 2011)
Keith Haring ranks among the most iconic, influential and popular artists in the world. Twenty years after his death, this historic exhibition of rarely exhibited early work chronicles Haring's arrival in New York City and his immersion in New York’s dynamic downtown culture.

Jimmy Baker (show up runs to April 10th, 2011)
This exhibition presents all new paintings from Cincinnati-based artist Jimmy Baker. In his signature style of synthesizing disparate images sourced from the web, his new body of work merges pictures of war with ones of everyday family life. By interweaving numerous unrelated sources into one composition, he addresses the role context plays in our understanding of images in the all-access world of the 21st century.

Prairie

Prairie, located at 4035 Hamilton Rd, Cincinnati, 45223.
"Chocolat" Curated by Brian Joiner - group show he produced which is built around the idea of chocolate as a metaphor for escapism from current global, economic and political difficulties. Joiner produced this show once before at Keith Mueller's Flowers and Beyond in Over-the-Rhine almost a decade ago and decided to resurrect it at Prairie this Winter. Before he sadly passed away this past October, Joiner was able to select and contact artists he wished to participate in the show and memorialize his curatorial vision in writing. Brian Joiner conceived of Chocolat as a way to "Respond to the current economy and its resulting societal angst, mistrust and despair. It is an escape, a feel-good, light hearted, poetic vision of artists' experience with chocolate."

The show runs from December 3rd through February 5, 2011, with an opening reception on Friday December 3rd from 6-9pm.
Prairie gallery hours are Tuesday - Friday 10-6pm, and Saturday 10-4pm.

"c.r." An installation by Arthur Menezes Brum

Night One: "Things Can Always Get Worse"- Friday, November 12th from 7 to 10 PM (performance at 8 PM)
Night Two: "Reluctance of Conscience"- Friday, November 19th from 7 to 10 PM (performance at 8 PM)
Closing reception- Sunday, November 28th from 1 to 4 PM
Gallery hours Sundays from 1 to 4 PM

"c.r." will be presented in two acts, the first titled "Things Can Always Get Worse" will be held on November 12th and the second, "Reluctance of Conscience" on Friday, November 19th. Both evenings will feature performances that will begin at 8 PM.

Alternating between text, image, and sculptural form and using an array of voices both sincere and sarcastic, Brum's work often attempts to provoke his audience into more a complicated viewing experience and gain the attention of both believers and skeptics alike. A constant in the work is a concern with motif, device and self-conciousness along with a love of unusual material.

"c.r." runs through November 28th with gallery hours on Sundays from 1 to 4 PM or by appointment.
