JOSEPHINE HALVORSON
November 19, 2008 - January 10, 2009
West Gallery
Concurrent with Lee's exhibition, new works by Josephine Halvorson are being shown in our west gallery. Depicting singular objects and painted perceptually, the artist views each work as a record of decisions and a material testament to experience. For Halvorson, the space between looking and painting reveals intrinsic histories and creates new ones. Though there is no pictorial project, she is drawn to frames, machines and fragments – forms that depend on the human hand. Though individuated, Halvorson's paintings, when grouped together, suggest words in a sentence.
Josephine Halvorson recently returned to New York City from a yearlong residency at the Fondation des États-Unis, Cité Universitaire in Paris. She earned a BFA from The Cooper Union, a MFA from Columbia University and was the recipient of a Fulbright Fellowship to Vienna in 2003-04.
