Max Ernst at Paul Kasmin Gallery (March 30 – May 22, 2017)

Paul Kasmin Gallery is pleased to announce MAX ERNST Big Brother: Teaching Staff for a School of Murderers on view at 515 West 27th Street, March 30 – May 13 2017. At various moments throughout Ernst’s career, from his Cologne Dada period in the 1920s onwards, the artist turned to three-dimensional materials and sculpture in intense bursts of activity. The exhibition will feature Max Ernst's Corps enseignant pour une école de tueurs (Teaching Staff for a School of Murderers), conceived in 1967 at a pinnacle moment in Ernst’s career in which he fully committed himself to sculpture with fresh rigor. Comprised of three monumental bronze figures, the sculptures synthesize Ernst’s iconic use of language and sharp witticism that in turn transcend personal significance and make pointed commentary on the modern social and political climate.

ADAA: The Art Show | Lee Krasner | Paul Kasmin Gallery Booth D16

Paul Kasmin is honored to present a selection of work from Lee Krasner’s Solstice Series at this year’s ADAA: The Art Show. Between 1979 and 1981, Krasner made twenty-one collaged paintings that incorporated and re-contextualized fragments of earlier work. Towards the end of her five-decade career, she continued to push the boundaries of her practice with the Solstice Series, revisiting and cannibalizing older works and processes, while demonstrating an acute understanding of language as an integral element of the self.
