Horizon 2007
Horizon
Curated by David Humphrey,
EFA Gallery, Summer 2007
EFA Gallery announces a new exhibition curated by David Humphrey, "Horizon." The horizon is subjective, entirely determined by the position of the spectator. Because it has no independent existence it has become a symbol for a variety of thresholds: the visible, the thinkable and the knowable. Every artwork in this exhibition will have a horizon and will be abutted and aligned to adjacent works on it’s left and right so as to make one continuous horizon around the gallery. Horizons in pictures are always cropped fragments, which, nonetheless, confirm the spectator’s position at the center of his or her experience. This exhibition will tether every artist’s horizon with all the other’s to create an irrationally cooperative panorama, a heterogeneous continuity that weakens the boundaries between works while staging their differences.
Approximately 40 artists of all disciplines and career levels will be included in the exhibition including:
Bill Adams, Meredith Allen, Diti Almog, Ellen Altfest, Louise Belcourt, Brian Belott, Katherine Bradford, Benjamin Butler, Dana Carlson, Jennifer Coates, Adam Cvijanovic, Angela Dufresne, Nicole Eisenman, Judith Eisler, Rochelle Feinstein, Jeff Gauntt, EJ Hauser, Catherine Howe, James Hyde, Susan Jennings, Lisa Klapstock, Dorota Kolodziejczyk, Bill Komoski, Julian Kreimer, Michael Lazarus, Medrie MacPhee, Chris Martin, Suzanne McClelland, Elizaveta Meksin, Santi Moix, Donna Moylan, Laura Newman, Gary Petersen, Alexander Ross, Sally Ross, Frank Schroder, Kate Shepherd, Amy Sillman, Elena Sisto, Rebecca Smith, Eva Struble, Team SHaG, Len Tsvetkov, Stanley Whitney, Paula Wilson, and others…

Nineteen Penises 2006
Nineteen Penises, a curatorial project for the Visual Aids Web Gallery in 2006.
Artists and non-artists alike have been depicting the penis for much of recorded time, in spite of the confusing and sometimes ferocious prohibition against its representation. This selection of artworks from the Frank Moore archive charts a circuitous itinerary through the vast continent of penis. Some of the members included here have been fashioned by hand, others are documented photographically, and all were emphatically made to be looked at. Whether the artist’s purpose was to arouse, protest, explain or provoke, each work testifies to an irrepressible desire to look at what we've been told over and over should not be seen in public.
