• Project_210 is pleased to present Available Space, a solo exhibition by San Francisco based artist, Bianca Kolonusz-Partee. For this exhibition, the artist continues her innovative practice of creating collages directly on the gallery walls. Semi-abstracted images of ports, in this case, those of New York and Los Angeles, raise questions about globalization and the shipping industry while presenting a highly personal approach to the landscape genre. Bianca Kolonusz-Partee regularly spends time observing, drawing and photographing the major ports and industrial environments on both coasts of the United States. She then utilizes recyclable packaging materials, much of which has passed through the ports, to create her installations. Even the colorful map pins anchoring the work to the walls suggest the notion of travel, or the distance from country of export to country of import. Intricate details combine with sprawling abstract configurations, revealing her sensibility as a former painter. Upon close inspection, specific product packaging can be identified while from a distance, panoramic views emerge. Bianca Kolonusz-Partee uses her artistic powers to bring us closer to an often-avoided subject while making it a pleasurable experience.
• Project_210 is pleased to present Never Forget, a solo exhibition by Los Angeles painter Steven Hampton. By bringing together the divergent aesthetics of Kitsch and Abstract Expressionism, Steven Hampton seeks to make painting a shared experience. In the aftermath of disasters, Americans often mourn through the collective consumption of kitsch objects. Think of tacky commemorative plates, T-shirts and snow globes bought by tourists while visiting Ground Zero in New York City. If Abstract Expressionist painting was to be mourned, could it not also be memorialized inside a snow globe? Steven Hampton has done exactly that, creating miniature Abstract Expressionist tableaux inside fully functional snow globes. These objects complement his newest paintings, which address the connection between disaster and kitsch in our culture and kitsch as the antithesis of Abstract Expressionist painting in Modernist Theory. With or without any understanding of this theory, Steven Hampton’s exhibition tempts us into shaking the snow globes and in doing so, makes us willing participants in the often non-participatory realm of Abstract Expressionist painting.
