About the Item

Jamie Nares When the Language was Young, 2010 Lithograph in red on polymer Pencil signed, dated and numbered 13/50 lower front Lithograph in red on acrylic Pencil signed, dated and numbered 13/50 (there were also six Artists Proofs) Published by Exit Art, Inc., printed at the Lower East Side Print Shop, NYC Provenance: Acquired from the Lower East Side Print Shop Archives. Another example of this work is in the permanent collection of the Whitney Museum Frame included: elegantly floated and framed in a white wood frame under UV plexiglass Measurements: Framed 33.5 inches vertical by 25 inches horizontal by 1.5 Artwork: 30 by 21.5 inches Jamie Nares Biography Over the course of a five-decade career, Jamie Nares has investigated, challenged, and expanded the boundaries of her multi-media practice that encompasses film, music, painting, photography, and performance. She continues to employ various media to explore physicality, motion, and the unfolding of time. In the 1980s, Nares began to paint using brushes of her own manufacture to create monumental stokes that appear almost three dimensional in their detail and depth, recording a gestural passage of time and motion across the canvas. In 2013, Kasmin's exhibition Road Paint presented the first iteration of paintings executed with the same thermoplastic paint used on tarmacs and roads. In 2014, the gallery presented her HIGH SPEED DRAWINGS – created, like much of the artist's work – using equipment co-opted and repurposed from industrial or scientific applications. The late Glenn O'Brien aptly described Nares as the "scientific painter," for whom each work is "a research project...a game, but [a game in which] the rules are the rules of physics." Since 2009, her film and video based work has been executed with cameras capable of shooting at extremely high frame-rates per second, which, when played back, slow down ordinary movements to a speed that allows the viewer to perceive infinitesimally small details. STREET, inspired by the "actualities" films of Edison, the Lumieres, and other early filmmakers, applies this extreme slow-motion technology to shots taken from a moving car of the neighborhoods and denizens of Manhattan. The more recent Portraits, on the other hand, consist entirely of long takes, in medium-close-up, of friends, family, and collaborators. Gestures and facial expressions that would ordinarily register subliminally become intensely dramatic moments. Nares has been the subject of numerous solo exhibitions, including at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York and a career-spanning retrospective at the Milwaukee Art Museum in 2019. Her work is included in several prominent public collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Buffalo AKG Art Museum, Buffalo, NY; and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. A career-spanning survey of her film and video works were presented in 2008 at the Anthology Film Archives, New York, and in 2011 at the IFC Center, New York. In 2014, Rizzoli published the most comprehensive monograph on Nares’ career to date. Nares has lived and worked in New York since 1974. She has been represented by Kasmin since 1991. -Courtesy Kasmin
