Karsten Födinger - Angsteisen - Raeber von Stenglin - Zürich
last chance: through March 31st
The structures of the German artist Karsten Födinger exude a raw physicality. Their materials — cast concrete, iron, cement and gypsum plasterboard, for instance — embody power and functionality, and tend to be deployed in a similar manner to how they might be used on a construction site: reinforcing one another and frequently being protected by wood and scaffolding as though in a state prior to completion. Recalling the arresting simplicity of Minimalist and Process art, Födinger’s structures convey also the sense of having a purpose, yet one that is curiously absent, completed only in the imagination.

JTT and James Fuentes announce a joint exhibition of works by the late Philadelphia artist Bill Walton (1931-2010). The exhibition will survey drawings as well as sculptures mounted onto the wall or installed directly upon the floor, all of which demonstrate the artists's subtle gestures of stacking, folding and leaning. Walton's career began in the early to mid 60s and continued until his death in 2010.

last chance: through March 24th 2012
Talia Chetrit, Harry Dodge, Martha Friedman, Gaylen Gerber with Adrian Schiess, Daniel Gordon, Melodie Mousset, Johannes Van der Beek
--
Human life entails, in fact, the rage of seeing oneself as a back and forth movement from refuse to the ideal, and from the ideal to refuse – a rage that is easily directed against an organ as base as the foot.
Excerpt from Georges Bataille’s The Big Toe

Ryan Sullivan - Maccarone Inc - NYC
through March 17th 2012
In several large-scale paintings, Sullivan tempers gesture and authorship through an entropic set of actions. The works often invoke topographies, with a strikingly physical surface that undermines simple signification. The cracks, mounds and fissures manifest the electric instability of the painted surface while rendering the precarious state permanent.

Brody Condon - Levelfive and Future Gestalt - On Stellar Rays - NYC
through April 15th 2012
Condon exacts a compelling investigation into a web of mid-20th century ideologies: the theorization of humans as bio-machines via Cybernetics, Minimalism’s engagement with the body as social space, and experimental theatre’s recursive dialogue with group psychotherapy. The exhibition articulates an organizing timeline, starting with a fictitious self-actualization seminar and moving forward to an imaginary future heterotopia.

through April 21st 2012
The Suzanne Geiss Company is pleased to present its inaugural exhibition RAMMELLZEE: THE EQUATION, The Letter Racers. Rammellzee’s manifestoes “Iconoclast Panzerism” and “Gothic Futurism” explored graffiti’s ability to liberate the transcendental powers of the alphabet that had been corrupted by Western culture. A manifestation of the artist’s theories, his Letter Racers were created over more than 15 years in his loft, The Battle Station. They are being shown in New York for the first time.

Stephen Sutcliffe - The Herbivores - Rob Tufnell - London
through April 5th 2012
Rob Tufnell presents new collaged video works and a wall drawing by Stephen Sutcliffe. ‘The Herbivores’ is made in response to playwrite Michael Frayn’s description of Britain’s ‘radical middle-classes’ as ‘gentle ruminants, who look out from the lush pastures which are their natural station in life with eyes full of sorrow for less fortunate creatures, guiltily conscious of their advantages, though not usually ceasing to eat the grass’.

Gabriel Kuri - Classical Symmetry, Historical Data, Subjective Judgement - Sadie Coles - London
through May 26th 2012
In his second show with Sadie Coles HQ, Gabriel Kuri is exhibiting a new body of work including a sequence of abstract self portraits and a group of floor-based 'platform' sculptures. The exhibition draws its title from an essay by statistician David Spiegelhalter in which he identifies classical symmetry, historical data and subjective judgment as three fundamental bases for calculating the probability of an event.1 In Kuri's exhibition, these factors become sculptural conditions – pointing to the formal and conceptual underpinnings of his works.
