SWELL July 1 - July 30, 2010 Opening reception: July 1, 6-8pm Friedrich Petzel Gallery, Nyehaus, and Metro Pictures present SWELL�curated by Tim Nye and Jacqueline Miro�a survey of surf-themed art that opens July 1st at the three locations in Chelsea. Dave Hickey, in a recent essay writes: "In its initial vogue, these works spoke directly to a new kind of artistic decorum�less aggressive than pop, less ideological than Minimalism, and less maidenly than post-painterly abstraction. It had a kind of gallantry�the cool courtesy of a well-born rake. California Minimalism created a gracious, social space in its glow and reflection; it treated us amicably, made us more beautiful by gathering us into its dance. It still does this today, so I am not amazed by the renewed interest in this work. I am still amazed, however, that my beach-bum pals could have created such a capacious and courtly art, although beach bums, I suppose, have dreams like everybody else." Friedrich Petzel Gallery is located at 537 West 22nd Street, New York, NY 10011. For further information, please contact the gallery at 212-680-9467 or [email protected].
