Vinyl Smash Up, 1999-2007. Six different vinyl pieces, made between 1999-2007 and executed in Los Angeles, Grenoble, Paris, and Frankfurt, will cover the interior walls of the gallery's 18 Wooster Street space from floor to ceiling. Working with the subtle variations in shape and light of the gallery walls, and its various levels, Isermann adapts his vinyl designs to create a dynamic choreography of space.
Vinyl Smash Up, 1999-2007
Vinyl Smash Up, 1999-2007, an exhibition of Jim Isermann’s decal works will open on June 28th at Deitch Projects. Six different vinyl pieces, made between 1999-2007 and executed in Los Angeles, Grenoble, Paris, and Frankfurt, will cover the interior walls of the gallery’s 18 Wooster Street space from floor to ceiling.
Working with the subtle variations in shape and light of the gallery walls, and its various levels, Isermann adapts his vinyl designs to create a dynamic choreography of space. His vinyl wall decals give form to surfaces by means of colors, patterns, reflections, and various other haptic and optic qualities. A bright pop palette of deceptively simple forms repeat rigorously over the walls and are reflected in the large Mylar adhesive on the north wall. This illusion seems to free the patterns from the walls optically and protrude them into space.
