White Flag Projects: Saturday, 12 January 2008

Please join us for the opening reception our next exhibitions this Saturday evening, January 12, from 7 to 10 PM.

LINNEA SPRANSY: ALL SYSTEMS GO
with
ZACH KLEYN: MEDITATIONS ON LIMITATIONS/ONE-HOUR SCULPTURES in the Library

White Flag Projects is pleased to present "All Systems Go", an exhibition of paintings and drawings by Linnea Spransy. Spransy's work is remarkable in its overt complexity, fastidious workmanship, and unlikely palette. A typical work begins with the artist devising a beautifully arbitrary system that reveals its almost biological magnificence as the artist follows her applied rules to their conclusion. All Systems Go will include paintings, drawings, and preparatory works which will allow viewers to fully consider the artist's process.

Zach Kleyn's "One-Hour Sculptures" began as the artist's studio exercise in using one hour of a day to re-imagine components of failed sculptures and other studio detritus into new works. The resulting objects were photographed and dismantled, their existence briefly noted and their various parts returned to stock of the artist's materials. For his exhibition
Meditations on Limitations/One-Hour Sculptures Kleyn has reconstituted several of these ephemeral works from their original components, focusing the viewer's attention on the humor and improvisation inherent to his work.
