Jennifer Dalton at WINKLEMAN & William Powhida at SCHROEDER ROMERO

from James Kalm Report on May 06, 2009
Duration: 607
James Kalm goes west, to bring viewers an exhibition double bill. Jennifer Dalton and William Powhida have created a stir that reverberates throughout the New York art scene. Though working with unique individual means, their excruciating examinations of art world norms reveals the faults and foibles of our materialistic and celebrity obsessed view of current artistic success. Dalton s installation questions the basic notions of value, while Powhida probes the structures of power assigned by the media. Both present a poignant and comic depiction of Institutional Critique .

The Pictures Generation, 1974-1984 at The METROPOLITAN MUSEUM of ART

The Pictures Generation, 1974-1984 at The METROPOLITAN MUSEUM of ART

from James Kalm Report on April 29, 2009
Duration: 607
James Kalm anxiously returns to the Metropolitan Museum for the debut of The Pictures Generation . As a young artist he witnessed the rise of this group first hand. Deriving their images from photographic sources, their philosophic underpinnings from the French Deconstructionists and their attitudes towards presentation from commercial and corporate campaigns, the Pictures artists ascended the heights of art world stardom in short order. Their assimilation of the mass media and use of nontraditional means is a prime influence on today s New Media . Featuring excerpts from comments by Douglas Eklund, Associate Curator in the Department of Photographs.

"The Generational: Younger Than Jesus" at the NEW MUSEUM

from James Kalm Report on April 09, 2009
Duration: 603
James Kalm brings viewers this brief preview of what will, no doubt, be one of the most controversial exhibitions of the Spring season. Featuring fifty artists from twenty-five countries, this is the first edition of Generational the New Museums entry into the international mega show territory. Organized by Lauren Cornell, Massimilano Gioni, and Laura Hoptman, much of the curatorial process involved an informational-sharing group of more than 150 curators, writers, teachers artists, critics and bloggers world wide (though not me). This methodology was intended to expand the curatorial process and challenge the traditional single-source method of creating an exhibition.

Duration: 583
James Kalm slips in five minutes before closing and goes on the LD (Low-Down) to bring viewers a brisk walk-through tour of this historic Manzoni Retrospective at Gagosian Gallery.

Probably best know for his Artist s Shit (Merda d artista) and Base of the World Manzoni died at age 30. Because of the tight security and a strict no-photo polocy at the gallery no commentary was possible. Audio was provided by an interview with Roy Basnett on 105.9 FM, The Voice of Liverpool broadcast March 16, 2009. For purposes on this interview, the persona of Loren Munk was adopted.

Fred Gutzeit “Love to Fred from Lee Lozano” at POCKET UTOPIA

Fred Gutzeit “Love to Fred from Lee Lozano” at POCKET UTOPIA

from James Kalm Report on November 18, 2008
Duration: 603
James Kalm guides viewers through a Bowery studio visit with artist Fred Gutzeit, through the development of his Lee Wall mural, to the installation and the work s debut at Pocket Utopia in Brooklyn s cutting edge neighborhood MoJo. The enigmatic persona of Lee Lozano (1930-1999) is the inspiration and muse, which inspired Gutzeit s project. Lozano was a ubiquitous force in the burgeoning early era of Soho. In a brief career spanning barely a decade Lozano moved through all the major art movements of the period, collecting eminent friendships among a broad cross section of the New York art world. Her pioneering actions are seen as provocative achievements in conceptual art, and led to her eventual expatriation from the New York scene.
