Andrea Meislin Gallery, New York
The Combination of Limits. The artist combines a keen understanding of political and aesthetic history with a discerning eye, to make subtle yet powerful images. On show an assembly of photographs accompanied by a video commenting on boundaries and borders in the Israeli spatial, temporal and conceptual continuum.
In his first solo exhibition in North America, Daniel Bauer combines a keen
understanding of political and aesthetic history with a discerning, detail-oriented
eye, to make subtle yet powerful images. The exhibition will feature an assembly of
photographs accompanied by a 'found' video commenting on boundaries and borders in
the Israeli spatial, temporal and conceptual continuum. Works divide roughly into
the geographic polarities of Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and the new city of Modiin, an
amorphous sprawl in the foothills midway between Jerusalem and Tel Aviv.
Daniel Bauer has shown in numerous international exhibitions including Gains/Losses,
Art Focus, International Biennial of Contemporary Art, Jerusalem (1999), Borderline
Disorder, the Israeli Pavilion at the Venice Biennale of Architecture (2002),
Territories: Islands, Camps and Other States
of Utopia, Kunst Werke, Berlin (2003), Metamorphosis, The Israel Museum, Jerusalem
(2003), Utopia and Other Facts on the Ground, Malmo Konsthaal (2004). He is a
recent recipient of an MFA from Columbia University and currently teaches at the
Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in Jerusalem.
