Daily Dose: New York July 9th, 2011

My fellow pawns, today we start giving you a daily dose. A daily dose of art that is! Every day we will be posting whats being exhibited in different geographic areas. We start today with the Big Apple:


MOMA- Francis Alÿs: A story of Deception
May 8th through August 1, 2011
A mix of photography, video, painting, performance, and drawing highlighting political and social realities, such as national borders, globalism, community and the pros and cons of progress. The museum recent acquired several new pieces, Re-enactments(2001), When Faith Moves Mountains(2002) and Rehearsal I (Ensanyo I) (1999-2001), which will be highlighted in the exhibition.

Guggenheim NY- Lee Ufan: Marking Infinity
June 24th through September 28, 2011
Simple gestural sculptures made from basic materials: rock, steel plates, rubber sheets and glass panes. The sculptures are simple and refreshing. Ufan is interested in the notion of encounter.

Knoedler and Company- Conrad Marca-Relli: City to Town
May 5th through July 29th, 2011
Painting and mixed media of abstract and minimal cityscapes. Paintings eerily representative of the urban, yet unidentifiable in terms of location.

David Zwirner- Group Show: The House Without the Door
