About the Item

Photograph Measures: Digital print 13.00 x 19.00 in 33.0 x 48.3 cm Edition of 30 In 2012, Janaina Tschäpe filmed two large balloons as they buoyantly floated and bounced upon a beach, engaged in a sort of dance. One moment of this performance has been captured and stilled on film here. The circular white and orange shapes—they are indeed ball-like, as the title suggests—are suspended midair in the center of the poetic composition, invoking the dreamlike imagery of Surrealism. Artist Janaina Tschäpe, who works in a diverse range of mediums—painting, drawing, photography, film, and installation—is inspired by the female body, as is evinced by the embryonic forms and ambiguous characters populating her work. Tschäpe was born in 1973 in Munich, but she was raised in São Paolo, where the lush Brazilian environment profoundly impacted the young artist. Today, nature plays a central role in Tschäpe’s work. Her dense paintings, for instance, are comprised of colorful and organic shapes that together convey polymorphous, dream-like landscapes. Indeed, throughout the artist’s output, real-world elements blend with memory, myth, and fantasy, aligning Tschäpe with the Surrealists before her. Tschäpe received her BFA from the University of Fine Arts in Hamburg and an MFA from New York’s School of Visual Arts. She has exhibited globally, including at the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin, the Contemporary Museum of Art in St. Louis, the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, and Madrid’s Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia, among countless other galleries and institutions. Tschäpe currently lives and works between New York and Rio de Janeiro.

Burt Barr: The Long Dissolve Limited Edition Print
By Phaidon
Located in New York, NY
PHOTOGRAPH Print made with archival pigments on fine art rag paper with glossy finish 12.00 x 17.00 in 30.5 x 43.2 cm Edition of 250This work comes with a Certificate of Authenticity and an artist signed label on verso. "I shot the video in 2000, in my home in SoHo. I knew prior to shooting what I wanted to do and I envisioned the piece exactly as it turned out. First, I experimented with a metal cookie tin placed on a hot stove. It didn't work because the ice cube melted too quickly. I tried a hairdryer but as the cube melted, the hair-blower blew the remaining cube away. Thus, I let the cube melt on it's own accord in real time. It took about three hours to fully dissolve into a puddle of water. I used a glass plate on Glassene paper: all that transparency made the black lines of the plate look line a charcoal line drawing. The title is important because it precisely explains the work: The Long Dissolve is exactly of an ice cube dissolving." —Burt Barr Claiming that "black and white are the only two colors I'll ever need," Burt Barr is a believer in the single take and the static shot. Meant to be projected directly onto a wall and looped for continual viewing, his films equate more to hanging drawings or black and white photographs than they are moving pictures...

Michael Bauer Baba Creme Limited Edition Print
By Phaidon
Located in New York, NY
Print Full bleed six-color silkscreen printed on Letra Ecru 300 gsm Measures: 34.00 x 24.50 in 86.4 x 62.2 cm Edition of 50 This work is signed and numbered by the artist on recto. The imagery for this edition is derived in part from what Michael Bauer calls his “telephone drawings”—quick, loose sketches made while talking on the phone or otherwise distracted. Bauer saves these doodles, no matter how rough or silly, and uses them as raw materials to be copied, scanned, altered, and combined. Bauer often works in series, making groups of paintings that metaphorically “talk back” to one another while simultaneously standing on their own as individual works. As he says, “Every painting that I do relies on the last twenty I did.” In a neat literalization of his process, this print includes the words “baba” and “creme,” recurring terms Bauer uses as verbal readymades for their phonetic qualities and mutable meanings. The amorphic, animalistic forms of German painter Michael Bauer are built upon color washes, meandering lines, and bulbous protrusions. Utilizing a variety of rendering techniques and materials, including pointillism, text and high-chroma colors, Bauer transforms his free-form compositions into dynamic and ornamented abstractions. He borrows from the colorful tradition of Modernist composition, juxtaposing collaged cutouts with a bevy of 20th century painting methodologies—including Cubist, Pop, and Surrealist techniques—to make the swirling paintings...
