Double Album: Daniel Guzmán and Steven Shearer opening april 23 solo show New Museum New York - second floor april 23 - july 6, 2008 This exhibition is a dynamic visual conversation between Mexican artist Daniel Guzmán and Canadian artist Steven Shearer. The show’s title, “Double Album,” refers to the exhibition’s related yet separate taxonomy and the bridge that music and a shared generation builds between Guzmán and Shearer’s work. Both Guzmán and Shearer were born in the 1960s, and their work is rooted in their adolescent aspirations and anxieties; each artist, in his own way, investigates the pitfalls and appeal of prolonged male adolescence. While their respective nations are essential to their identity, Guzmán and Shearer’s work confirms the existence of the international language of popular culture. Both artists are masters of emblematic autobiography, and their personas inhabit their work as stand-ins for a generation that came of age and shaped their lives with heightened awareness of certain bands, lyrics, posters, and celebrities. “Double Album” is curated by Richard Flood, Chief Curator. more information: www.newmuseum.org/exhibitions/21 |
