André Hemer: These Days Hollis Taggart, 521 W 26th Street, New York, NY 10001
On October 8, Hollis Taggart will open These Days, artist André Hemer’s first solo exhibition in New York. The presentation will feature a selection of new paintings and sculpture created by Hemer during the worldwide shutdowns spurred by the COVID-19 pandemic. The new works reflect Hemer’s ongoing engagement with nature, and in particular the cycles of the rising and setting sun, which have especially drawn his attention in the sudden quieting of his home city of Vienna. Hemer is recognized for his distinct fusion of digital scanning processes with a physical working of thick formations of acrylic paint. His paintings, which are produced by layering paint on a flatbed scanner left exposed to both natural and artificial light, are ripe for an era in which the boundaries between the real and manufactured have been deeply eroded.
