Michael Zansky - New Paintings

March 5-March 28, 2010


Departure, by Michael Zansky


GAGA Arts Center is excited to host the premier exhibit of Michael Zansky’s new oil paintings. The internationally recognized artist will hang over thirty canvases-- a radical, tour de force departure from his acclaimed multi-media Lens Installations.


“The new paintings are snapshots of an alternate reality; our minds clutch at the jagged cracks of the subliminal cliffs - our grasp of the real fails, and we fall willingly into the curious mind of Michael Zansky.” James Tyler-Curator

Gallery Hours: Fridays- 4-8PM, Saturdays 2-6PM and Sundays 12-4PM

Opening Reception: Friday, March 5th, 6pm to 9pm

Salon des Refuses 2K10


March 5-March 28, 2010


In an age of the all-powerful institutional mega-exhibition, the Gaga Arts Center is pleased to present FICTIONS Salon des Refuses 2K10 (French for “Salon of the Refused’). This experimental and innovative exhibition includes artists whose work has been overlooked by the curators of these exhibitions yet warrants critical attention as the avant-garde. These artists dare to develop new language in all media that doesn’t fit into neat categories and boundaries—simply put, their work breaks rules. The distinguishing element running through all the work in this show is that fiction is more real than fact-analogous to contemporary life.


A brief description of two of the artists in this group show is presented below:

Ezra Talmatch is so New York , so gritty, street smart, east village that you can’t get any closer to street language but with such enormous skill that it creates a tension with the refinement of the Artworks. He has an outrageous amount of artistic energy whether he is simply drawing, creating dry frescos, massive construction material environments, or altering prints and virtual atmospheres. He is constructing and destructing himself at the same time. These works are so raw and yet so refined. His work is frighteningly evocative. You’ve never seen dry-frescos like this before.


Brian Leo is a great colorist and pop-minimalist whose work creates a surrealist’s sense of dramatic humor. His particular way of putting colors together is totally unique. The colors are very unusual, their qualities are irresistibly attractive and beautiful, Brian has a very good command chromatically. These forms have no relationship yet they do relate. If Phillip Guston lives--he lives through this kid.


Gallery Hours: Fridays- 4-8PM, Saturdays 2-6PM and Sundays 12-4PM
Opening Reception: Friday, March 5th, 6pm to 9pm
