DANE MITCHELL : UNKNOWN AFFINITIES ON VIEW AT TWO ROOMS IN AUCKLAND
August 12, 2022

Unknown Affinities by Dane Mitchell might be considered the first wing of The Museum of Without — a museum of proxies and gaps — an unhinged museum held together by its hermeneutical framing practices alone. This enormous and ambitious project directly displays techniques of enclosure and addresses the museum’s grasp of its artifacts and actively asks: what might a museum without artifacts be? What might a collection of losses hold and what might hold it?

To move toward more sustainable cities, we need to think of them not just as habitats for humans alone but also as co-habitats for other species.

In her photographs of Mies van der Rohe’s Neue Nationalgalerie, Kellndorfer exposes the gap between our idea of the building and its actuality. Her work Reflecting Ashlars, 2017 shows the empty museum at the beginning of a process of restoration revealing its raw materiality; the original steel, glass, and stone coexist with the stacks of materials waiting to be removed, amidst the dust and dirt of the construction site.

BILL FONTANA FEATURED IN THE ART NEWSPAPER FOR HIS FORTHCOMING PROJECT
July 3, 2021

The Blanton Museum of Art in Austin, Texas is opening the first ever museum exhibition space dedicated exclusively to sound art. For the site’s first commission, the Bay Area sound artist Bill Fontana is working on a project that will investigate a number of “interesting and significant ecological and environmental situations in that region of Texas”. Guided by experts at the University of Texas at Austin, Fontana will travel to locations throughout the surrounding areas to source recordings. “The process of building a language for this piece involves a huge amount of field recordings,” he says. “Once all of those recordings are edited, they'll become like a musical vocabulary for the piece that will be living in that sound garden.” Fontana built a similar library for a permanent work he installed in Miami Beach’s SoundScape Park, in front of the New World Symphony building.

CHRISTINE CORDAY: KNOUN INSTALLED AT 14TH STREET BRIDGE
December 20, 2020

The 14th Street Bridge is a historic closed-spandrel arch bridge built in 1921 recently renovated into a pedestrian bridge where Christine Corday’s work KNOUN has been installed. KNOUN reveals itself as a two-pillar Form sited by the body of the viewer in relation to the work. Spanning 13 feet in both height and length, the KNOUN explores the moment in between sensory perception and definition and investigates balance and gravity. Though sculptural, Corday approaches these Protoist Forms with the mentality of a painter using the heat of a plasma torch in place of the paintbrush. Protoist is a term coined by Corday describing the intermediary state between the known and the unknown—the suspension of a moment between sensory perception and definition. 

BILL FONTANA REMIX SONIC PROJECTIONS 1988 - 2020

Beside this, there is a stone block that supports a spotlight and a plant that Kellndorfer borrowed from Heike Baranowsky for the duration of the exhibition. The interaction of the light source with the glass objects and the plant creates a cinematic combination of complementary color effects, shadows and projections.

DANE MITCHELL AT THE CHRISTCHURCH ART GALLERY
August 1, 2020

Dane Mitchell’s Post hoc conjures the ghosts of our past, calling up millions of lost, extinct and obsolete things. From submerged atolls to failed utopias, extinct languages to tax havens, long lists of lost entities are announced within an echo-free chamber and transmitted to cell-phone towers disguised as trees around the city. They accumulate in the Gallery in printed form, amassing as a melancholy archive of loss. Post hoc reflects on our constant demand for growth and progress, highlighting the unrelenting new losses and extinctions occurring as our present moment becomes the past. For some, this data is all that remains.

MACHINE ASSEMBLY BEGINS AT ITER
July 28, 2020

A key aspect of ITER as a complex, collective, global undertaking is that each of its members fabricates specialized components of the machine, called a “Tokamak,” a doughnut-shaped magnetic confinement device.

Corday’s two-pound sculptural object, Sans Titre, represents Art as the 36th contributor to mankind’s largest terrestrial realization of the celestial.
