Since 2006, Neal Medlyn has been creating a seven-show performance series in which each piece is built around a pop star or iconic group, from Lionel Richie and Miley Cyrus to the Insane Clown Posse. The Finale of this series, “King,” is built around Michael Jackson ― containing radically rethought versions of his music, intuitively-related source material in sculpture and costume, as well as considerations of Medlyn’s personal and artistic trajectory of the past several years.

New work from Simen Johan’s ongoing series of photographs and sculptures, Until the Kingdom Comes, which he began in 2005, depicts a natural world that is at once familiar and otherworldly.

October 25 – December 7
Opening: October 24, 6-8PM
475 Tenth Avenue

Paul Gabrielli: “Daily Chores” at Invisible Exports
October 25 – December 1
Opening: October 25, 6-8PM
89 Eldridge Street
For Daily Chores, Paul Gabrielli has made a series of deconstructionist sculptures, each composed of “everyday objects” that are themselves in fact a characteristic combination of altered, manipulated, and meticulous hand-made elements.

New Sculpture will be exhibited in both Chelsea locations.

At Zenith brings together fifteen pigment prints from the Wedgewood Blue cloud series, in which Eggleston takes celestial zenith—the point of sky directly overhead—as his exclusive subject. The photographs represent a broadening of Eggleston’s quotidian subjects—an exploratory, sky-gazing caesura within the lush panorama of his oeuvre.
