Almost Something: Depictive Abstraction – curated by Andrew Chesler

by Ken Johnson

Catherine Moore, 140 West 30th Street

Abstraction and fantasy converge in this entertaining eight-artist show. Daniel Wiener’s small sculpture look like an extraterrestrial plant-animal hybrid; Peter Soriano’s funky, yellow sculpture suggests a futuristic device made of Play-Doh; David Dupuis draws a neat, quirky mindscapes; Giles Lyon and Alexander Ross both paint, and Gail Fitzgerald sculptures what might be realms of the microbiology; Gary Stephan’s process-based painting hints at some elemetnal narrative; and Kim Kever photographs sublime visions in a fish tank (Johnson).

    Materials

    Apoxie Sculpt

    Apoxie-Sculpt is a self-hardening clay manufactured by Aves Studios.

    Polytek - Liquid Mold Rubber

    I use Polytek 74-30 for poured rubber molds and Polygel 40 or 50 for brush-on molds.

    Aqua-Resin

    Aqua-Resin (created by an artist) is an easy to use, opaque, non-toxic composite fabricating resin. It is usually used as a casting material but I use it direct, either brushing it or pouring it over a form.

    Pilchuck

    All the glass seen in my sculptures was produced at Pilchuck Glass School over several weeks during an artist-in-residency. Pilchuck, generously, asks artists to their campus to explore what glass can do. It was a tremendous and productive experience.
