Entrée (New York) presents ISCP, Studio No. 221 1040 Metropolitan Avenue Brooklyn, New York
For the first exhibition in the series, the artist duo Lewis & Taggart will present a prelude to their upcoming solo show at Entrée, Bergen, which will be held in the spring of 2015. Driven by an ongoing engagement with the objects and ephemera that pass through their hands on a daily basis, Lewis & Taggart's practice investigates how physical material, through pared-down yet precise transformations, can reveal ineffable and unpredictable insights into the conditions of its context. A Nice Pair highlights a recent thread within their work to emphasize notions of the double, probing the formal and poetic resonance of things in pairs, objects doubled, and manifestations of two-ness.
Lewis & Taggart (Andrew Taggart and Chloe Lewis) are Canadian artists based in Bergen, Norway. Their work has most recently been exhibited at Kunstverein Leipzig (DE); Volt, Bergen (NO); Platform Stockholm (SE); Performa 13, New York (USA); NoPlace, Oslo (NO); and the Centre for Contemporary Art, Warsaw (PL). In parallel to their studio practice, Lewis & Taggart operate The Museum of Longing and Failure, a small museum with an emphasis on sculptural practices.
We welcome you Thursday September 11th from 6 – 9pm to an intimate opening reception and cocktails with the artists!
To attend the opening, please rsvp entree.randi@gmail.com. The exhibition will additionally be open by appointment Friday, Saturday and Sunday, from 12- 4pm.
