Performance is an integral aspect of Calzolari’s practice; he created happenings as early as 1966, drawing viewers into his artwork as performers in what he termed “an activation of space.”  Pier Paolo Calzolari: When the dreamer dies, what happens to the dream? is on view at 510 West 25th Street in collaboration with Marianne Boesky Gallery until June 2nd, 2012. 

Here’s a sneak-peak at The Pace Gallery Booth at Art Hong Kong 2012!

Reblog of the day! This work is shown in our retrospective exhibition of Arte Povera artist Pier Paolo Calzolari. When the dreamer dies, what happens to the dream? is presented in conjunction with Marianne Boesky Gallery.  We hope you can see this exhibit before it closes on June 2nd.

This week’s Modern Art Notes Podcast features one of the greatest living artists, Robert Irwin. A exhibition of Irwin’s newest work is on view now at The Pace Gallery in New York, where Irwin and I taped this week’s show.

The piece pictured here is one of Irwin’s first pieces made out of scrim, a thin, ephemeral, synthetic material that Irwin used to great effect starting in the 1970s. On this week’s show, Irwin talks about how he ‘discovered’ scrim and about how he used it in his studio starting in 1969, first exhibited a scrim piece guerilla-style at the Museum of Modern Art in 1970 and then did this major piece at the Walker Art Center in 1971. Don’t miss the Walker’s fascinating blog post about Irwin’s 1971 installation. There are some great pictures there too. That untitled work is in the Walker’s collection; the museum has installed it four times.
