Dirty
Work by Paul Nudd and Casey Ann Wasniewski
May 4 – July 20, 2008
Exhibition Reception:
Sunday, May 11, 3 – 5pm
The Cleve Carney Gallery
Gallery Hours:
Monday – Thursday: 10am – 8pm
Friday – Saturday: 10am – 5pm
Sunday: 12pm – 5pm
Chicago, IL (March 2008) — Dirty, a two-person exhibition of new works by Paul Nudd and Casey Ann Wasniewski, examines the uncanny similarities between geology and biology through paintings and sculptures on view at the Hyde Park Art Center from May 4 until July 20, 2008. Animal, vegetable, or mineral? There is no separation of categories for these two artists. Mining the murky ambiguous matter where all three elements meet provides fertile ground to cultivate imagery that could be subterranean as equally as it could exist within the human cavity.
Paul Nudd pushes his signature biomorphic shapes and encrusted textures into an expanded graphic (sub)landscape with a new series of cavernous 6 x 8 foot grayscale paintings. Previous work by Nudd include colorful drawings often depicting comic book representations of bugs or video works that concentrate on bubbling paint that simultaneously reminding of the body’s interior and the mouth of a volcano. The five canvases debuting in Dirty incorporate grotesque items—synthetic hair and little balls of clay that resemble dried mucus—that drive the art historical read of the body-as-landscape further into a molecular level where all elements appear the same at the core.
Equally tactile, the amorphous soft sculptures by Casey Ann Wasniewski contain sprigs of horse hair in odd places and patches of dark fur infusing these objects with a life of their own, perhaps extraterrestrial. Wasniewski knits wool yarn using the French knot, then sews the yarn onto industrial felt to make the substantial crater-like shapes. Intentionally mounted on sterile steel rods, the sculptures incorporate the aesthetic of a natural science museum display raising questions regarding the inspirational origin of this type of artifact.
Both Paul Nudd and Casey Ann Wasniewski are artists working in the Chicagoland area. Nudd received an MFA from University of Illinois at Chicago and a BFA from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Wasniewski received an MFA (2005) and a BFA (2003) from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Both artists will be represented at Art Chicago 2008.
Dirty will be on view from May 4 – July 20, 2008 at the Hyde Park Art Center, 5020 South Cornell Avenue, Chicago, IL, 60615; 773.324.5520 and www.hydeparkart.org. Exhibitions are always free and open to the public.
The Hyde Park Art Center is a not-for-profit organization that presents innovative exhibitions, primarily work by Chicago-area artists, and educational programs in the visual arts for children and adults of diverse backgrounds. The Center is funded in part by the Alphawood Foundation; The Chicago Community Trust; a City Arts III grant from the City of Chicago’s Department of Cultural Affairs and the Illinois Arts Council; The Lloyd A. Fry Foundation; The Leo S. Guthman Fund; The Irving Harris Foundation; The Illinois Arts Council, a state agency; The Joyce Foundation; JPMorgan Chase Foundation; The Mayer & Morris Kaplan Family Foundation; The MacArthur Foundation; The MacArthur Fund for Arts and Culture at Prince; The Orbit Fund; Polk Bros. Foundation; The Clinton Family Fund; The Sara Lee Foundation; South East Chicago Commission; The Wallace Foundation; and the generosity of its members and friends.
He exhibits regularly at Western Exhibitions and has been included in solo and group shows throughout the Midwest since 2001.
Her work has been exhibited at the Lancaster Art Museum (PA), Atlantic Center for the Arts (FL), and will be one of the selected artists to participate in The Artist Project at Art Chicago 2008.
