MICHAEL GITLIN
Reception to take place at the Gallery, on Friday, December the 4th, 12:00PM
 
 
Exhibition Overview
Michael Gitlin's work has been characterized above all by its restlessness.
If his most recent period, unusually, has been dominated by drawing rather than by sculpture, this suggests first of all that this productive dissatisfaction has attained even greater intensity. Gitlin's drawings are not what they might have been had they been the drawings of a painter. There is something more at stake, which I do not hesitate to call a crisis of the object. Gitlin is a fortiori, a sculptor rather than an object maker. The object crisis for Gitlin at least, and perhaps only for him' such is the risk of the artist – implicates the subject of sculpture more than its means. Gitlin has produced sculptures of late – and each of those quite distinct, a singular venture at resolution.
