Up now through July 20: Olivier Mosset’s fifth solo exhibition with SBG, featuring a series of bespoke benches inspired by the minimalist forms favored in museum seating. The gallery is also presenting the “benches” at Basel Social Club 2024, open through June 16th. The work is placed on open air farmland behind the residential neighborhood of Bruderholz outside of Basel.

Spencer Brownstone Gallery is pleased to present new work by Olivier Mosset at Basel Social Club, 2024. [BSC] returns for its third edition in a new location and new format: a week-long event in the open air on farmland fields behind the residential neighborhood of Bruderholz, extending across approximately 50 hectares of land into Baselland – from the city border to the edge of the forest.

Open Hours:

June 16, 11am – 3pm

Install photos of Mira Dayal’s work in “Carboniferous Love,” curated by at , on view through May 26th.

“Hypothetical Core Sample (42°01’12.5”N 73°54’51.5”W, 3 million years, 0.05 cm/year), 2024, graphite (16,666.66 pencil leads), envisions a core sample of the earth in Tivoli Bays, near Bard, as measured by thousands of graphite sticks laid out in rows on a shelf, calculated based on a scientific study of the rate of material accumulation in the bay over time.”
“Map (42°01’12.5”N 73°54’51.5”W), 2024, graphite, is a site-specific rubbing that maps every detail, dust to dust, of the entire gallery floor. It becomes a site for drawing that constantly changes as it maps the flow of people moving through the space.” An earlier version of the work was presented at SBG in 2021 (3rd slide)

Tomorrow is the final day to see Katie Bell's "Edges in Search of Form," featured in 's "Six New York Shows to Close Out Your May."

Hrag Vartanian writes "Katie Bell’s new exhibition builds on her continuing interest in El Lissitzky’s Proun Rooms and other Constructivist goodness, but here she incorporates elements that bring to mind the Memphis Group oeuvre and commercial display culture as much as fine art. Her large drawing-like sculpture “In Search of Form” (2024) appears to be where she works out her visual ideas, while incorporating objects she amasses on her travels. The more somber circular Line of Sight series on the other side of the gallery, and the stumpy “Water Table (Bird Bath)” (2024) in the backyard distill some of that thinking into elegant forms that exude a refreshing stoicism, if that’s even a thing. It’s nice to see a show use the language of formalism without necessarily feeling nostalgic, like so many exhibitions are doing nowadays."

Tomorrow is the last day to view Katie Bell’s Edges in Search of Form. The artist will be in attendance from 3-5pm so come say hello.

“Reconciliation comes in the form of bird baths. Often found on lawns or backyards where the natural order is kept at bay to the best of one’s ability, they are beacons that welcome natural behavior. Composed of a patchwork of stone-like Corian, Water Table (Bird Bath) melds with the tones of our landscape while standing out in its formality”

ON VIEW: Katie Bell’s “Edges in Search of Form” open now until May 11th.

Katie Bell, "Through Line (Grass)," 2024
acrylic and wood, each 4-96 x 3 x 4 inches
Overall dimensions variable

"Trained as a painter, Katie Bell’s sculptural practice stems from a rethinking of the painting process in the third dimension. Basic forms and simple found objects act as individual marks within the canvas of space, most evident in Through Line (Grass). The monochrome, matte grass green prisms are assembled together and around, activating space and generating an environment of its own. Pared down to its base attributes, shape, color, scale, and quantity foreground their objectness while their modularity alludes to a whole, greater than the sum of its individual parts. The rigidity and simplicity of the form is contrasted by its color and organic arrangement."

The [south] wall features an amalgam of fabricated and found objects. “In Search of Form” is various in material and texture, with components overlapping, weaving, and puncturing the other. The eyes follow the intricacies of their interaction like a visual Rube-Goldberg machine. Or like the futile attempt of some to maintain the length and shape of grass, an exercise in controlling those things in our world that resist.

ON VIEW: Katie Bell’s “Edges in Search of Form” featuring new Line of Sight paintings, compact forms reduced to its base elements. Their shape, undulating line, softer hues, and subtle change in tones recall landscapes, shifting light, and the passage of time.

"BEACONS" is open for two more week.

Swing by SBG this week to catch Konrad Żukowski’s “Beacons” (Installation View) open through March 16th. “Beacons” is primarily composed of portraiture, rendered in Żukowski’s Mannerist style, characterized by elongated forms in an unearthly environment, where the lighting, color and space are surreal. Unlike his past work which was firmly rooted in myth, symbols, and imagination, his new body of work transitions into the real.

Come visit Konrad Żukowski’s debut exhibition at SBG, open through March 16th. “Beacons” refers to the landmark tower of Saint James in Paris, a remnant of the church of St. James of the Butcher, visible from the artists studio window in Paris. The hyper-ornate Gothic structure being his own visual memento of his life in the city, where beacons in the form of new encounters and relationships have manifest.
