IN BRUSSELS ✨✨ SEBASTIAN BLACK — ALLERGY SEASON Until October 17 “Lately India’s belly has been swelling up like Eve’s in the Ghent altarpiece and yesterday it hit me that the expulsion was an allegory for birth. I went to church every Sunday for years but no one ever mentioned that. I made these paintings in between the road trips and the leaves and the arcadia. I was in my studio sans AC, shirtless, and still sniffly” - Sebastian Black 311 Avenue Van Volxem 1190 Brussels, BE @sebbazillion

HUGH HAYDEN at BLUM & POE ✨✨ Part of Sympathetic Magic — a group exhibition curated by Bill Powers “When a painting is imbued with supernatural qualities or predictive powers, such as Christians praying to an oil painting of Jesus or metal insertions made into a power figure from the Democratic Republic of Congo, we are investing in that object a measure of the otherworldly.” - Bill Powers With works by: Ellen Altfest Natalie Ball Alex Becerra Brian Calvin Ginny Casey Louis Eisner Jantsankhorol Erdenebayar Natalie Frank Hugh Hayden Daniel Heidkamp Rosy Keyser Eddie Martinez Geoff McFetridge Tanya Merrill Danielle Orchard Anna Park Alina Perez Umar Rashid Rene Ricard Peter Schuyff Lucien Smith Vaughn Spann Kathia St. Hilaire Anna Weyant Chloe Wise Hiejin Yoo Until October 24, 2020 Image: Hugh Hayden, Precious, 2020, Texas ebony, steel, flocking, and epoxy @huthhayden @blumandpoe @abellanatalie @nowhereboogie @ginnycaseypompi @knuckles.eisner @jantsa_ @nataliegwenfrank @danielheidkamp @rosykeyser @elmersfud @tanya_merrill @daniorchard @annaparkart @alina.perezz @frohawktwofeathers @peterschuyffstudio @feareatsthesoil @vaughnspann @kathiast.hilaire @chloewise_ @hiejin_yoo

OPENING SOON ✨✨ Meriem Bennani will be featured in the Drawing Center’s upcoming exhibition “100 Drawings From Now.” The exhibition includes drawings made in 2020 by an international group of artists, providing a snapshot of artistic production during a period of profound global unrest. “I was in Milan for a day in February right before Italy went into full lockdown. It's been 6 months now and I haven't had time to draw my cartoon therapist.  I still haven't told her we're going through a global pandemic.” - Meriem Bennani Open to the public ‪October 7, 2020 - January 17, 2021‬ Image: Meriem Bennani, Milan Dream from Comic Therapy Diary, 2020, Black pencil on paper, 14 x 11 inches Curated by Claire Gilman, Rosario Güiraldes, and Laura Hoptman @meriembennani @drawingcenter @clairesgilman @rosarioguiraldes @lhoptman

NOW ON VIEW IN VIENNA ✨✨ Sebastian Black: New and used drawings At Croy Nielsen Until September 26, 2020 “Before he retired my father was an architect. My mother worked for Chase Bank before she retired. In America it’s thought that a middle-class kid’s professional achievements should add up to at least the sum of their parents’. These works combine architectural rendering and chase bank deposit slips. As such they represent a concrete attempt to bring my otherwise diaphanous career into line with that stricture. In a few months my wife and I will find ourselves parents. I wonder, when the little baby grows up, what will it do to make ends meet? I wonder, what will I do? God knows we’ll both be working. Retirement’s false floor has long since collapsed. Our legs swing free over the other more permanent certainty.” - Sebastian Black 📸 @kunstdokumentationcom @henrikkecroynielsen @sebbazillion

HUGE CONGRATULATIONS TO AARON GARBER-MAIKOVSKA ✨✨✨ “4 from 3 dancers”, his first solo show at Blum & Poe LA, opens today 2727 S La Cienega Blvd September 12 - October 25, 2020 “The abstracted, embryonic figures depicted in Garber-Maikovska’s paintings communicate a visual vernacular that originates in the body and depicts something that is universal and shared. His work is integrally connected to the somatic experience, its potential for expression harnessed to extend beyond the soma and into the realms of painting.” @blumandpoe

´Nudes’, the outdoor installation of Pink Marble sculptures by Daniel Dewar & Gregory Gicquel is currently on view at the Van Buuren Museum and Gardens 🌷🌷🌷 Open from 2 - 5:30 pm until March 29, 2021 @museumandgardensvanbuuren @daniel____dewar ́gorygicquel

ON VIEW IN BROOKLYN ✨✨ Meriem Bennani Neighborhood Goggles, 2019, 3 min 2 sec Neighborhood Goggles combines Bennani’s sculptural and video work into a small-scale wall sculpture. Structurally reminiscent of her works from the 2019 Whitney Biennial, it features a 3 minute video of houses in Rabat, Morocco singing about their dwellers. Neighborhood Goggles highlights Meriem’s ability to playfully yet critically combine live footage and animation. @meriembennani
