      Tyson Reeder, Sweaters

      Kavi Gupta | 835 W. Washington Blvd. Chicago, IL, 60607 18 April - 14 June 2008 Tyson Reeder's paintings are eclectic scenes which embody a rich history of painting borrowed most noticeably from Fauvism and Impressionism. Colors are accentuated and dramatized. Space is often flattened or textured by the use of washy color, and mixing mediums of acrylic paint, pen and pencil creating areas of abstract depth in relation to his representational and often figurative subject matter. Though his work often includes clues to current fashions, the urban landscape and other signifiers of contemporary culture, Reeder's work feels rooted in a dialogue that spans several painting histories. Tyson Reeder's project room exhibition titled Sweaters features a collection of works on paper depicting ornate, brightly colored sweaters from different periods in different positions and poses.

      Constellation

      Kavi Gupta | 835 W. Washington Blvd. Chicago, IL, 60607 5 September - 11 October 2008 Kavi Gupta Gallery is proud to present Constellation, a group exhibition of painting, drawing, video, collage, and sculpture featuring Los Angeles artists Sayre Gomez, Mark Hagen, Julian Hoeber, Brett Lund, and Landon Wiggs. Constellation is an exhibition that addresses notions of time, process, and human agency. Elementary in nature, Constellation places emphasis on formlessness, physical affect, and expression to look at the metaphysical purpose of art making. The exhibition draws a common thread through multiple movements as it references Romanticism, Minimalism, and Surrealism and ventures to relate cosmological movement and natural phenomenon to themes of idealism, fate, and free will. Through the ominous gaze of a surveillance camera, Landon Wiggs's video Trans Live shows different views of the steel skeleton of the new Broad Contemporary Art Museum. Words slowly form out of the building's structure, eventually succeeding into a rapid constantly morphing series of anagrams. Wiggs's clever and textual play starts with what the suburban megalopolis in background affirms, specifically, that "everything happens".

      Danica Phelps

      Kavi Gupta | 835 W. Washington Blvd. Chicago, IL, 60607 17 October 2008 - 29 November 2018 Kavi Gupta is proud to present a solo exhibition by New York based artist Danica Phelps. Danica Phelps is known for documenting her life through skillful fluid line drawings and has been painting intricate stripe charts formulated using her own simple monetary system for the past ten years. This project has illustrated important events in the artist’s life through the filter of her personal finances. Her stripe paintings recently became a larger project referred to as The Stripe Factory where the process became unmoored from her personal data and self-referential to the individuals hired to produce these works.

      Hard Rain

      Kavi Gupta | Berlin 24 October - 2 December 2008 Kavi Gupta is very pleased to announce that the gallery is opening an exhibition space in Berlin, Germany. The gallery is located in Mitte on Rosa-Luxemburg-Straße adjacent to other prestigious galleries such as Galerie Kamm, Christian Nagel and Kuttner Siebert. The gallery will host two opening receptions on October 24 and October 29 during Art Forum Berlin with a group exhibition entitled Hard Rain including work by Sayre Gomez, Angelina Gualdoni, Jason Loebs, Melanie Schiff, Tony Tasset and Danielle Gustafson-Sundell. Referencing the Bob Dylan song A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall and the Hard Rain, 2006 photograph by Tony Tasset and Melanie Schiff, the show softly brings to mind multiple issues that plague our current global political and economic situation. The work in this exhibition is quiet and uneasy, imbued with an overwhelming feeling of malaise. A longer perusal reveals the subtle multiple underlying ideas at work that look toward the past as a reflection for answers.

      Ulf Puder

      Kavi Gupta | 835 W. Washington Blvd. Chicago, IL, 60607 12 December 2008 - 20 March 2009 Kavi Gupta is pleased to announce the solo exhibition of the Leipzig-based painter Ulf Puder. Ulf Puder’s latest series of paintings describes the artist’s unique imaginary world of desolate and haunting environments populated only by abandoned architecture and rendered in his signature muted palette. Tents, mobile homes, churches, train cars and other recreational spaces that should be occupied are left emptied and silent. Bungalows float on makeshift platforms within flooded streets; other structures seem to be in the midst of a storm. Natural disasters come to mind - places that have recently seen the unthinkable and have been left uninhabitable.
