Kim Gordon - White Columns exhibition
 

"Gordon’s paintings include the ongoing ‘Noise Painting’ series, depicting the names of experimental and noise groups (e.g. ‘Weak Sisters’, ‘Pussy Galore’ and – on the floor, crumpled into a ball – ‘Sonic Youth’); a series of paintings depicting the names of contemporary galleries and gallery owners (including ‘Larry Gagosian’, ‘Barbara Gladstone’, and ‘White Columns’); works from the untitled ‘From The Boyfriend’ series – Rorschach-like images painted on used denim skirts, and the most recent series of ‘Twitter Paintings’ sourced from the Twitter streams of ‘GIRLS’ producer Jenni Konner, critic Jerry Saltz, and artist Richard Prince among others."

Not sure what I think of those, the twitter paintings leave me wondering, but maybe that's a sign of success? To me, twitter is well named, it is for twits. There is a video of a Kim performance that is compelling, and then what I call the California corner, with among other things photos of tract housing that have been processed in photoshop with the "painting" effect. There is also underglass a selection of publications Kim has worked on. The 12" is good kind of like Body Head w/out Nace but denser. I need to see the edition that comes with handmade art and get the publication which wasnt available Saturday.
