Ian Davenport: Doubletake

September 8 – October 22, 2016 Paul Kasmin Gallery is pleased to present Doubletake, an exhibition of new paintings by the British artist Ian Davenport, on view from September 8 – October 22, 2016 at 293 Tenth Avenue in New York. This will be his first solo show at the gallery since 2013.

In Doubletake, Davenport explores the chromatic essence of historical masterpieces, the palette of many of the paintings being inspired by a canonical work. He has ranged widely through history for his sources, paying homage to paintings spanning from the 16th century to the 20th, creating a remarkable record of a painter’s taste and powerfully demonstrating how a great tradition of historical pictures can inform contemporary art. His technique, driven by an enduring fascination with the materiality of paint and the process of painting, is similar in each. First, after studying the painting in depth and gaining an intuitive understanding of its colors and hues, he goes to work using his signature technique, which delivers elegant vertical lines cascading down the panels into rich puddles of color.

Robert Polidori: Ecophilia/Chronostasis

September 8 – October 15, 2016 Paul Kasmin Gallery is pleased to announce its inaugural exhibition of acclaimed photographer Robert Polidori, on view from September 8 to October 15, 2016 at 515 W. 27th Street.

This exhibition will be the first U.S. show to feature Polidori’s “dendritic cities” images, a body of work begun in 2007. He appropriates the term “dendritic” from the branching extensions of a cell structure and uses it to describe the auto-constructed cities (as opposed to pre-planned urban developments) that have appeared as a result of industrialism in cities around the world, including Amman, Mumbai and Rio de Janeiro. The exhibition will feature three monumental photographs taken in India, including an expansive mural of a street in Mumbai known locally as “60 Feet Road.” View More

Saint Clair Cemin: Psyche

May 26 – August 19, 2016 297 Tenth Avenue, New York Paul Kasmin Gallery is pleased to announce the exhibition of Psyche by Saint Clair Cemin, on view from May 26 – August 19, 2016 at 297 Tenth Avenue, New York.

Internationally renowned sculptor Saint Clair Cemin will unveil the ethereal sculpture Psyche, a large-scale marble boat that appears to float atop its bronze cradle. Measuring over 16 feet in length and carved from a single piece of Sichuan marble that began as 30,000 pounds, the work alludes to its namesake Psyche, goddess of the soul, and her true love, Eros. Though the viewer is drawn into antiquity, the sculpture transcends its legendary inspiration as it becomes a fully functional boat, capable of floating on water. View More

Bernar Venet: Angles

April 28 – June 25, 2016 Paul Kasmin Gallery is pleased to present Bernar Venet's exhibition, Angles, on view from April 28 – June 18, 2016 at 515 W. 27th Street, New York.

The conceptual artist’s inaugural solo show at the gallery unveils a brand new series of large-scale Angles. The exhibition features four cor-ten steel sculptures, each an assemblage of acute angles of varying heights and differing angular degrees, some extending across the horizontal axis and others stretching vertically. Intended for indoor or outdoor installation, the sculptures work to define the spaces in which they are positioned. The scope of the new series is further articulated with the inclusion of smaller sculptural maquettes, offering the viewer insight into the artist’s thought process as he expands the vocabulary and points to new directions in this body of work.
