On the Pleasure of Hating
At Lisa Cooley
July 9 – August 22, 2009
On the Pleasure of Hating: Love turns, with a little indulgence, to indifference or disgust; hatred alone is immortal, curated by David Hunt
Soylent Green Bust (2009).
From the press release:
“The exhibition, “On the Pleasure of Hating,” takes as its conceptual and thematic launching point William Hazlitt’s 1823 essay of the same name. Originally published in The Plain Speaker, a journal that did much to cement Hazlitt’s reputation as both innovator and primary exponent of the “familiar” or “personal” essay, I was instantly attracted to the English critic’s tone of wise equanimity, the general mood of resignation writ large in every one of his paragraphs. Hatred, after all, needs no introduction; its mere incantation perfectly approximates its heated emotional tenor. But miraculously, a man for whom every relationship – wife, daughter, mistress, friends, colleagues – succumbed to the kind of emotional entropy Hazlitt describes so well in his essay, seemed to write with a calm, retrospective clarity absent any lingering resentment.”
Miami Noir
April 4 – May 10, 2009
Curated by Adriana Farietta
DEA/Macrame (2009), shown at Miami Noir.
From the press release:
“Miami is a vacationland built and rebuilt on the promise of international glamor and endless pleasure. But the artists who call Miami home have always known better. The work of Miami Noir depicts a darker city, more menacing, seductive but forbidding, a murky metropolis obscured for a time by new money, but which we now know will long outlast it. A city conjured up out of the Florida swampland by ruthless ambition and criminal enterprise.”

From the press release:
“Featuring a group of international artists working in a variety of media, the exhibition explores the poetic and philosophical sides of science fiction literature. These artists approach science fiction as a genre that provides diversion from the banality of everyday life, making our current dreams and anxieties more spectacular. The Possibility of an Island examines fantasies for the future, which reveal desires to escape pressing social and political concerns. Covering themes from habitation and technology to fear and hope,the exhibition illustrates the present time through extraordinary treatments of the past, present, and future.
Artists featured in the exhibition include: Cory Arcangel; Davide Balula; Tobias Bernstrup; Heman Chong; Peter Coffin; Matias Faldbakken; Cao Fei; Kim Fisher; Claire Fontaine; K48; Chris Kraus; Cristina Lei Rodriguez; Nicolas Lobo; Martin Oppel; Philip (a novel written by Mark Aerial Waller, Heman Chong, Cosmin Costinas, Rosemary Heather, Leif Magne Tangen, Francis McKee, David Reinfurt, and Steve Rushton); Lisi Raskin; Julika Rudelius; and Mungo Thomson.”
