The Hole is proud to present Paper View II, a second installment of our 2019 works on paper-fest on Bowery. With over eighty artists and a hundred pieces, our fest has grown this year: the show is a true celebration of the medium with a broad assortment of techniques and styles. From colorful and detailed oil pastels to sparse swipes of charcoal or graphite, artists use works on paper for a variety of reasons: preparatory sketching for painting and sculpture is just the beginning and many artists included in this show choose paper as their sole medium. Paper can be quick, portable, accessible: to emphasize this we cover the gallery walls with cork board and pin everything up unframed like a giant bulletin board.
Our love of paper began with Panic Room curated by Kathy Grayson and Jeffrey Deitch at the Deste Foundation in Athens in 2006, where underground artists from Providence, RI and San Francisco mixed with top established artists from the Dakis Joannou collection. David Shrigley and Paper Rad, Tauba Auerbach and Mat Brinkman, Margaret Kilgallen and Elliott Hundley; we tried to recapture that depth and structure with Paper View thirteen years later, and had many repeat offenders (Xylor Jane, Chris Johanson) as well as debuting that year’s top new talent like Anna Park, Grace Weaver, and Cristina BanBan, as well as new regional excitement with artists from Japan Susumu Kamijo and Koichi Sato.
For our final show of 2024 we give you the best of what is happening on tree pulp today. In Allison Zuckerman’s Day of Rest Study #1 and Day of Rest Study #2, we see the artists mind whirring, plotting out the references and details for what appears to be plans for a painting. In Dan Attoe's Accretion Drawing LXXIX (79), we get an inside peek at his practice which includes daily drawings with racy little texts. Meanwhile in the detailed painted collages of Anthony Iacono and the monochromatic framing of Jordan Kasey we see works clear and confident that paper is their final form.
And in honor of the show’s name (bestowed on us by silkscreen cyclone Brian Chippendale), we try to turn up the seedy sizzle: in Philip Gerald’s Sexy Tree we get a flash by pre-paper with a hint of “pay per view”, Alpha Channeling returns with some erotic drawings that had Jerry Saltz all riled up, Alfred Steiner's Cream is too-hot-for network TV and Namio Harukawa’s BDSM pencil protagonists dominate. Swedes Sally Kindberg and Leo Park are a bit more demure and mindful, while Aurel Schmidt of course remains full-frontal.
This show is jam-packed so please grab a guide at the front; we are delighted to include so many familiar faces from the first Paper View like Barry McGee, Austin English, Taylor McKimens, Prinston Nnanna, Ryan Travis Christian, Samual Weinberg, and many more! If we wrote even just one sentence about each artist this email would be endless; we’re grateful to all the artists, consignors and also Hole staff that added their paper pals to the fest. Breaking down the classical hierarchy of media takes a village!
