The Starling Drawings
Catharine Clark Gallery announces the upcoming solo exhibitions of new paintings by Julie Heffernan, titled Broken Homes, and The Starling Drawings, a video installation by Adam Chapman in the Video Room. An opening reception for the artists is Saturday, 6 September, 1–3pm. The exhibition dates are 30 August – 27 September, 2008. A new limited-run catalogue titled Julie Heffernan: Broken Homes has been published by Catharine Clark Gallery and will be available for sale. The recent work of Hawaii-raised, New York-based new media artist Adam Chapman combines contemporary technology with the traditional medium of drawing to explore the dynamic formation of imagery through seemingly random patterns. The Starling Drawings, on view in the video room, is a selection from the series of 15 video works and draws on the simplicity of observing birds in flight and the natural phenomena of the Starling flight pattern. Until recently, a visiting artist at the American Academy in Rome, Italy, Chapman’s work has been featured in exhibitions at the American Museum of the Moving Image (Queens, New York), Fundacao Armando Álvares Penteado (Sao Paulo, Brazil), and Carnegie Art Center (Buffalo, New York), among other venues. An exhibition at MassMoca (North Adams, Massachusetts) is scheduled for later this year. This is his first exhibition at Catharine Clark Gallery.
