MICHAEL ROBINSON
CIRCLE SPECTRE PAPER FLAME
Carrie Secrist Gallery
835 W Washington Blvd, Chicago, IL, 60607 (map)
APRIL 6 – MAY 11, 2013

This Saturday, Michael Robinson‘s “Circle Spectre Paper Flame” solo exhibition opens at the Carrie Secrist Gallery here in Chicago. The show includes a new series of collages and photographs, and an installation of Robinson’s new film Circle In The Sand, which will screen hourly for the run of the exhibition. I recently saw Circle In The Sand at the 51st Ann Arbor Film Festival, and it certainly was one of my favorites, a true otherworldly vision. If you’re in Chicago, don’t miss the opportunity to tune in and drop out.

—
“ In his first solo exhibition with Carrie Secrist Gallery, Michael Robinson presents a new body of photo and collage work together with the film Circle in the Sand (2012). Layering and reassembling leftovers of culture, the artist creates contemporary venues for spiritual exchange and transformation. The resulting pictures hum subtly, revealing new meanings.

In the main space, Robinson exhibits new photographs offering a magical interpretation of landscape. Using basic light manipulation, Robinson captures subjects such as forest mushrooms and moonlight cast on a book page. Communicating an oblique narrative, his eerily pleasing images capture the potential for transcendence in the mundane.

Alongside the photographs, Robinson shows new collage work. In each mixed media piece, central halo forms frantically explode across found photographic backgrounds. The backgrounds act as photographic representations or readymade additions to the disseminated montage of deities in each foreground. Robinson mines sources as varied as fruit tree diseases and 1980s computer graphics to generate his otherworldly scenes.

In the second gallery, Robinson screens Circle in the Sand (2012). Set in a post-apocalyptic near future, the 45-minute film follows a band of listless vagabonds ambling across a war-torn coastal territory. Rummaging, stuttering, and smashing through the scraps of Western culture, this group of ragged souls conjures an unstable magic fueled by their own apathy and the poisonous histories imbedded in their unearthed junk.

Circle in the Sand screened previously at the New York Film Festival (2012) and the International Film Festival Rotterdam (2013); the film will project hourly at the Carrie Secrist Gallery during its Chicago debut.

Past exhibitions and screenings for Michael Robinson (American, b. 1981) include the 2012 Whitney Biennial, Walker Art Center, MoMA P.S.1, London Film Festival, REDCAT Los Angeles, Sundance Film Festival, Tate Modern, San Francisco International Film Festival, and Hong Kong International Film Festival. Honors include a Kazuko Trust Award (2012), a Creative Capital Grant (2012), and a 2011-2012 Film/Video Residency Award from the Wexner Center for the Arts.

Michael Robinson: Circle Spectre Paper Flame will be on view through May 11, 2013. The gallery is open Tuesday through Friday 10:30 to 6 and Saturday 11 to 5 or by appointment. ”

• April 6 from 5 to 8 PM: Opening Reception at Carrie Secrist Gallery

Gallery hours: Thursday – Sunday, 2:00pm – 6:00pm and by appointment

If you’re in or near Brooklyn, don’t miss Bunny Rogers‘ and Filip Olszewski‘s “If I Die Young” show at 319 Scholes — tonight, 7pm–10pm — curated by Gene McHugh.

“ If I Die Young is an installation that addresses contemporary understandings of childhood. Similar to the artists’ previous collaborative project, Sister Unn’s (2011-2012), in which they set up an out-of-business flower shop on a commercial avenue in Forest Hills, Queens, If I Die Young explores issues of loss.

The front gallery will consist of twelve black computer speakers spread along the walls, each playing the audio from a YouTube video in which a young girl (age four to sixteen) sings a cover version of the pop-country song “If I Die Young” by The Band Perry. Typically, the YouTube covers include a brief introduction by the girl, who announces her name and age and then proceeds to sing the song, which was written by lead vocalist Kimberly Perry from the point of view of a young girl who has died. Harmonized together in the gallery, the collection of voices takes on a different resonance.

In the rear gallery, the artists will display ten custom-made, twin-size blankets—each based on a watermarked photo taken from an Internet-based child modeling agency. The photos are replaced with the image’s average overall color, but retain the agency’s watermark logo, which is embroidered into the wool fabric.

A website — http://vailmodel.com — will accompany the exhibition and feature additional visual content.

Participating artists include: Bunny Rogers and Filip Olszewski

Gene McHugh is a writer and curator based in Brooklyn. His writing has appeared in Artforum, Rhizome, Aperture, Junk Jet, Red Hook Journal, and multiple exhibition catalogs. He was the recipient of the Creative Capital | Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Grant for his blog, Post Internet, which was published in book form by Link Editions. A graduate of the Center for Curatorial Studies, Bard College, McHugh has curated exhibitions for Vogt Gallery and Silvershed. He is currently the Interpretation Fellow at the Whitney Museum of American Art. ”

Repatriation Drift

“Typing on Goggle UK the acronym PNG, to search for low quality, easy to transfer images, the multi-visual scrolling surprises you with a 1984 image, taken during Prince Charles’ visit to Papua New Guinea, (PNG). The prince standing still, dressed with local outfit and decorations is accompanied by dancers.

PNG’s cultural artefacts appropriated by Germans and English during their colonisation of the Island are now part of a digital repatriation initiative.

The project’s aim is to return 3D virtual copies of Malagan funerary masks — up to date still conserved in Berlin — to its communities. The digital copy becomes an informative, yet distant, substitute of the real object.”
