Ronald Feldman Gallery to show Alexander Brodsky

Friday, 29 February 2008 22:43

New York City - The Feldman Gallery will exhibit new work by Alexander Brodsky, a Moscow-based artist/architect whose work relates to memory and the passage of time.  Brodsky will exhibit three installations and two paintings on light boxes.  The installations, which are displayed on large, specially-constructed tables, include clay heads implanted with television sets, drawings on used tea bags in cemetery-like formation, and messages on paper, held down by clay weights, which flap in a breeze created by fans.  
 
Brodsky was the set designer for the recent New York Theatre Workshop production of Beckett Shorts, which featured Mikhail Baryshnikov.  Grey Matter, his dream-like environment of unfired clay objects that surround one’s childhood, was exhibited at the Feldman Gallery in 1999.  In 2006, he represented Russia in the Venice Biennale of Architecture.
 
On exhibition 5 April through 10 May, 2008. Opening reception: April 5, 6-8 pm
