White Flag Projects: Saturday, 11 September 2010
Garth WeiserSeptember 11 – October 23, 2010
Opening reception Saturday September 11, 7–10 pm
Garth Weiser is best known for his highly graphic paintings that compress the vocabulary of abstraction into dense pastiches of history and technique. For his exhibition at White Flag Projects, Weiser will present three artworks, each considering the impermanence of painting and the temporal relationship of each work to its substrate. The works on view will include Wall Painting for White Flag Projects, a temporary mural measuring over 57 feet long and 10 feet high, which will occupy the gallery's largest wall; a second painting rendered in water-soluble media displayed on the exterior of the gallery; and an installation of 150 pages torn from "I wouldn't have worn mascara if I knew I was going to be taking a trip down memory lane," an artists book reproducing Weiser's 2008 painting of the same title.
New gallery hours: Wednesday, 12 – 7pm, Thursday through Saturday, 12 – 5 pm.
