- Hilma af KlintHilma af KlintTime: 10:00 am - 6:00 pm
Hilma af Klint: Paintings for the Future at the Solomon R Guggenheim thru April 23, 2019: When Hilma af Klint began creating radically abstract paintings in 1906, they were like little that had been seen before: bold, colorful, and untethered from any recognizable references to the physical world. It was years before Vasily Kandinsky, Kazimir Malevich, Piet Mondrian, and others would take similar strides to rid their own artwork of representational content. Yet while many of her better-known contemporaries published manifestos and exhibited widely, af Klint kept her groundbreaking paintings largely private. She rarely exhibited them and, convinced the world was not yet ready to understand her work, stipulated that it not be shown for twenty years following her death. Ultimately, her work was all but unseen until 1986, and only over the subsequent three decades have her paintings and works on paper begun to receive serious attention.
- Implicit Tensions: Robert Mapplethorpe NowImplicit Tensions: Robert Mapplethorpe NowTime: 10:00 am - 6:00 pm
“Implicit Tensions: Robert Mapplethorpe Now”, Guggenheim Museum, Fifth Ave. at 89th St. The photographer Robert Mapplethorpe, who died in 1989, at the age of forty-two, cast a classicizing eye on subjects both conventional (calla lilies) and controversial (the underground S & M scene). As his muse and friend Patti Smith has written, “He will be condemned and adored. His excesses damned or romanticized. In the end, truth will be found in his work, the corporeal body of the artist.” On Jan. 25, the Guggenheim opens its yearlong two-part exhibition “Implicit Tensions: Robert Mapplethorpe Now.”

- ANDY WARHOL- FROM A TO B AND BACK AGAIN - Whitney MuseumANDY WARHOL- FROM A TO B AND BACK AGAIN - Whitney MuseumTime: 10:00 pm - 6:00 pm
ANDY WARHOL- FROM A TO B AND BACK AGAIN at the Whitney Museum of American Art through March 31. Although this is the artist’s first full American retrospective in 31 years, he’s been so much with us — in museums, galleries, auctions — as to make him, like wallpaper, like the atmosphere, only half-noticed. The Whitney show restores him to a full, commanding view, but does so in a carefully shaped and edited way, with an emphasis on very early and late work. Despite the show’s monumentalizing size, it’s a human-scale Warhol we see. Largely absent is the artist-entrepreneur who is taken as a prophet of our market-addled present. What we have instead is Warhol for whom art, whatever else it was, was an expression of personal hopes and fears.

Hailing form L.A., Luis Flores, Salon 94 at 243 Bowery, crotchets full-length, life-size figurative sculptures out of yarn, which look suspiciously like the bearded artist himself. Indeed, he calls them “doppels,” and outfits each in an identical uniform based, apparently, on his own wardrobe of blue jeans, dark blue t-shirts and sneakers bought at Old Navy. Singly, Flores’s stand-in can be seen falling from the top of a ladder, or absent-mindedly scratching his balls while checking his phone. Things get even weirder, however, when Flores presents his twin as pairs wrestling with one another. Exhibit runs through March 30.

- ANDY WARHOL- FROM A TO B AND BACK AGAIN - Whitney MuseumANDY WARHOL- FROM A TO B AND BACK AGAIN - Whitney MuseumTime: 10:00 pm - 6:00 pmANDY WARHOL- FROM A TO B AND BACK AGAIN at the Whitney Museum of American Art through March 31. Although this is the artist’s first full American retrospective in 31 years, he’s been so much with us — in museums, galleries, auctions — as to make him, like wallpaper, like the atmosphere, only half-noticed. The Whitney show restores him to a full, commanding view, but does so in a carefully shaped and edited way, with an emphasis on very early and late work. Despite the show’s monumentalizing size, it’s a human-scale Warhol we see. Largely absent is the artist-entrepreneur who is taken as a prophet of our market-addled present. What we have instead is Warhol for whom art, whatever else it was, was an expression of personal hopes and fears.

Indeed, he calls them “doppels,” and outfits each in an identical uniform based, apparently, on his own wardrobe of blue jeans, dark blue t-shirts and sneakers bought at Old Navy. Singly, Flores’s stand-in can be seen falling from the top of a ladder, or absent-mindedly scratching his balls while checking his phone. Things get even weirder, however, when Flores presents his twin as pairs wrestling with one another. Exhibit runs through March 30.

It was years before Vasily Kandinsky, Kazimir Malevich, Piet Mondrian, and others would take similar strides to rid their own artwork of representational content. Yet while many of her better-known contemporaries published manifestos and exhibited widely, af Klint kept her groundbreaking paintings largely private. She rarely exhibited them and, convinced the world was not yet ready to understand her work, stipulated that it not be shown for twenty years following her death. Ultimately, her work was all but unseen until 1986, and only over the subsequent three decades have her paintings and works on paper begun to receive serious attention.
