Clementine announces the opening of two exhibitions of new works on paper:
Billy Malone in the Main Gallery and Lordy Rodriguez in the North Gallery. Both shows will run from October 11-November 17, 2007. A reception for the public will be held on Thursday, October 11, from 6-8 PM.
For this exhibition, Billy Malone will present a series of meticulously rendered ballpoint pen drawings depicting wooden structures whose forms recall modern minimalist sculpture and architecture. Anthropomorphous in shape, Malone’s structures frequently contain an array of accoutrements including surveillance cameras, rope, skulls and bungee cords as well as plants, insects, and animals. Rooted in the still-life and allegorical traditions (from Northern Renaissance to French Surrealism), Malone’s imagery is both personal and contemporary.
This will be Billy Malone’s second solo exhibition at Clementine. His work was recently featured in Twice Drawn at the Tang Museum and Salon Nouveau at Engholm Engelhorn Gallery in Vienna.
