Nicole Eisenman
New Paintings*

Susanne Vielmetter Los Angeles Projects is pleased to present a solo exhibition of new paintings by Nicole Eisenman. In her second solo exhibition at the gallery, Eisenman presents several large portraits as well as a range of figurative paintings featuring gatherings of people engaged in different social activities.

Nicole Eisenman, who came to be known in the early nineties for her outrageously funny figurative installations combining mural painting, sculpture, drawing and multi-media work, has always been fundamentally interested in painting. Since the nineties, when her work was often narrowly eclipsed through a lens of gender politics, her work has been unwaveringly committed to this interest. For this exhibition, Eisenman has developed a new intensely focused body of paintings. More than anything else, these new works are carving out an emotional space - a space that gives room both to the most intimate and to the most disillusioned encounters between people, the need to destruct as well as the need for two people to melt mtogether in a kiss. Eisenman effortlessly moves between representation and abstraction, between expressive and impressive modes - the paintings are specific and yet shifting and ambiguous. Above all, her paintings are deeply human, they speak of the joy and the desperation of this specific moment in time, gloriously fleshing out those larger overarching mhuman themes of love and friendship, alone-ness and mortality.

Please find below a selection of titles for the exhibition.

Nicole Eisenman's work has been featured in solo exhibitions at the Tang Museum, Skidmore College, Saratoga Springs, mNY; the Kunsthalle Zürich, Switzerland; at Le Plateau le Frac, Paris; at The Herbert F.

Wynne Greenwood
How We Pray

Susanne Vielmetter Los Angeles Projects is pleased to present a solo exhibition and a performance of Wynne Greenwood in the fourth gallery. For this exhibition, Greenwood constructs a women's spa in the gallery to look at security, transformation and mythic interaction. The space of the spa is suggested with hand-dyed fabric flooring and video projection. The fabric floor extends upwards into space through three 3-D soft sculpture forms. As the soaking pools, the videos in the show are loose prayers of noticing and un-isolation. For the video "Pregnant Medusa," Greenwood puts Medusa and Pebbles Flintstone into relationship to engage symbols and archetypes of woman behavior and being. Taking these myths out of isolation allows for transformation of the cartoonish experience of being stuck in one role. In "Rose, Wall, Purpose," Greenwood further explores the experience of isolated subject-hood through a collage of physical movement with the camera and acknowledgement of the frame.

Viewers are invited to sit on floor mats, made from old purses and bags. Greenwood has dyed fabric to match the bags' patterns, woven the strips of fabric into baskets, and then cut them open to lie on the floor as mats. Forms designated to hold, to possess, unfold into locations, places to be here. Security is not held in the ownership of an idea, but rather in the participation with it. Greenwood will perform in the gallery as the space of the spa.

Wynne Greenwood received her MFA in 2004 at the Milton Avery Graduate School for the Arts, Bard College, Annandale-on-Hudson, NY. Her work has been shown in solo exhibitions, partially in collaborations with Fawn Krieger and K8 Hardy, at the Moore Space, Miami, FL; at the Hayward Gallery, London, UK; at the Frye Art Museum, Seattle, WA; at Reena Spaulings, New York; Foxy Productions, New York; and at The Kitchen, New York.
