Erika Verzutti
Churros and Rain
22 Cortlandt Alley
On view through November 3rd 

For exhibition views, click here.

Tactile in its approach, Erika Verzutti’s practice rests between sculpture and painting, drawing on a wide range of references from nature to popular culture. Shapes derived from fruits or vegetables recur alongside familiar objects, self-referential gestures, and images culled from social media to form a new vernacular. Firmly rooted in studio practice, Verzutti’s work revels in its process and explores how disparate ideas and perceptions take on a physical form.

Both skeletal and architectural, Julien Creuzet’s materially dense sculptures weave together his own lived experience with the broader, social reality of the Caribbean Diaspora, which is the result of shared history but simultaneously, has produced a multitude of outcomes. Abstract in appearance, the works’ metal armatures are drawn from maps, topographies, and an array of other images. The resulting forms slowly accrue media, found and new plastics in kaleidoscopic color, detritus, torn fabric, varying textures, and the vestiges of Creuzet’s own touch, creating an accumulation of material that feels like the aftermath of moving through time and place. In dialogue with Creuzet’s writing practice, the titles of his sculptures are excerpted from his own poetry and function as a point of entry, connecting the tangible, historical references within the work with the concerns of the present. Resisting a finite narrative, and remaining open-ended, Creuzet’s sculptures are embedded with the anxieties of impending climate crises, the question of emancipation, and a desire for Black affirmation.

Upcoming Exhibitions

Henry Shum
Hex
November 4 - December 21, 2022
Opening Reception: Friday, November 4, 5 - 8 pm
55 Walker

Andrew Kreps Gallery is pleased to announce Hex, an exhibition of new paintings by Henry Shum at 55 Walker.

Henry Shum’s work mirrors the experience of contemporary daily life, and the constant mediation of various streams of imagery and information. In his paintings, Shum distills disparate references culled from physical and digital sources, as well as his own imagination into psychologically-charged compositions. Dynamic spatial effects emerge from thin veils of paint, as architectural space collides with natural forms and abstract geometry. Achieved through a chemical manipulation of oil paint, rich areas of saturated pigment sit against faint washes, creating forms that hover between the real and imagined. This interplay between opacity and transparency extends to the works' subjects. While Shum employs a highly personal language, he maneuvers through collective, and individual experiences, building emotive resonance through lurid and atmospheric color. Throughout, Shum positions his work within a liminal space where memory, and history can flow freely to shape a distinct view of the present.

Hex is Henry Shum’s (b.1998, Hong Kong) first solo exhibition in the United States. Shum lives and works in Hong Kong, and received his BA from Chelsea College of Arts, London, in 2020. Empty Gallery, Hong Kong presented Shum’s first solo exhibition in 2020.
