ART BLOG ART BLOG is a curatorial project by Joshua Abelow. From a recent interview with Abelow, “Intitially the blog was a way for me to contextualize my own work alongside artworks and text by other artists and writers I was interested in, and it still is that. But, it’s also a way for me to curate in the simplest way possible. To call a gallery space a blog is something that had never been done before and I think it generated a lot of interest because of that simple gesture. It created an element of confusion – like what is ART BLOG ART BLOG – a gallery, a blog, or a website? And, for a temporary period, it was all three.” Last summer in New York, ART BLOG ART BLOG presented ten exhibitions at a temporary location on the 11th floor of 508 West 26th Street. The location was generously donated to Joshua Abelow by the painter, Ross Bleckner. Abelow’s new book, Painter’s Journal, describes in detail his first year living in New York in the late 90′s working for Bleckner as a studio assistant.
