Sadly, I will not be able to make it to the exhibition, but I am sorry to miss the current show at
The Proposition, New York, which features the three dimensional sculptures of
Ben Bunch alongside the abstract paintings of
Evan Levine. However, it is the humorous reproductions of technology by Bunch in the show that runs from the 23rd October until December 5th 2010 at this Chelsea space that I am very sorry to not be missing in person. Bunch expertly crafts representations of the interior and exterior of everyday technological objects upon through low-fi materials such as foam, chipboard and wire. The result are playful and cartoon like forms that reference our close, even fond relationship and personal reliance on these objects function and our inability to quantify and fully comprehend their workings.
