Jesse Greenberg - Derek Eller Gallery - NYC

through February 8th 2014

The biological forms evoked by Greenberg’s wall works and small sculptures are as familiar as they are discomforting. Composed of urethane resin and colored pigment, the works contain percolating bubbles and a flowing alchemy, a painterly quality complimented by a palette that is alternately seductive and repulsive. Greenberg says, “I’m witness to these bizarre fluid moments, and though I’m making sculpture, my medium is liquids, and the membranes that contain them.”  His work reflects back to the post-minimalism of Eva Hesse and Lynda Benglis and forward to the post-human future conjured by David Croenenberg and a new generation of visual artists.
