886 Geary Gallery is pleased to present โAnalog yโ, a Group exhibition in our Main Gallery at 886 Geary Gallery. The opening reception will be Saturday, April 11th, from 7-11 pm, the exhibition is free and open to the public for viewing through May 2nd, 2015.
โThe Diagram is the possibility of fact, it is not fact itself. All figurative facts must disappear; and, above all, a new figuration must โฆ emerge from the diagram and carry clarity and precision with it. To emerge from the catastrophe โฆ (Deleuze 1981)
With our latest exhibition we have set out to exhibit a group of artists who work within the scope of analog painting referencing the analogical representational elements of work that could be seen as figurative or representational at times. We have pulled from Gilles Deleuzeโs reference to Analogical painting as reference to interpret a new generation of emerging painters who pull from representation, distorting it through a new diagram as Urban contemporary artists. The artists exhibiting further the conversation of painting in a post-historical era of art where figures and representation is not bound by historical narratives or for that matter the conceptual ideology of contemporary art. These artists embrace aesthetics as a mode of difference, not as a mode of illustration. The paintings engage a deeper sense of sensation, as familiarity is only the start of a conversation where the interpreter engages with the work. Each artist transforms and filters reality through their personal diagram or what Deleuze calls Catastrophe, modulating this reality transforming the output of painting that becomes a product of this process. Artists exhibiting work are Arnaud Liard (France), Blo, (Germany), Cekas (Poland), Optimist (US), Pro 176 (Spain), Vogue (US).

Throughout the year I will introduce group shows based on some of these subcatogories as a way of telling a larger story without throwing all these different types of art into one group show like I am forced to do at times. I have also been influenced by Gilles Deleuze's writings on art so I am using this also as a reason to combine these concepts through curation. Other sub catagories I will be exploring with smaller group shows in the future will be , letterbased artists/calligraphic, Geometric abstract, Abstract Expressionist work, Insutu/installation and sculptural work, Hybrid contemporary artists, etc etc. So many artists I work with have this same thread of history but their work all checks seperate boxes that need to seperated at times and deserve their own show and recognition.
Atleast thats the idea and hopefully I can complete the circle on these exhibitions.
good line-up, it should be an interesting show Thanks its hard to explain the whole concept how my curating all fits together but the new space has allowed me to start to catagorize certain genres within the larger whole of what I might usually curate. This show references the representational aspect of the genre and those artists that work within that range.
