Coming After
Featuring artists from New York, Los Angeles, Berlin, Toronto and beyond, Coming After is a response to the recent renewal of interest in the period from the mid-1980s to early 1990s that was decisive for North American cultural politics. This time period witnessed the Culture Wars, the birth of "queer" as an identity and theory, and the rise of a direct-action AIDS activist movement fighting a new plague that was devastating communities of artists, queers and people of colour.
Artists: Pauline Boudry/Renate Lorenz, Aleesa Cohene, Glen Fogel, Onya Hogan-Finlay, Christian Holstad, Danny Jauregui, Adam Garnet Jones, Jean-Paul Kelly, Tim Leyendekker, Benny Nemerofsky Ramsay, James Richards, Emily Roysdon, Dean Sameshima, Jonathan VanDyke, Susanne M. Winterling

Steven Laurie, Zeke Moores, Brandon Vickerd / Lauren Hall
GALLERY ONE: Steven Laurie, Zeke Moores and Brandon Vickered are an artist-pit crew using the gallery as an ersatz garage. Their sculptures reflect on aspects of North American motor-culture from NASCAR racing to Survival Research Laboratories. "Clutch" contrasts the enduring appeal of the automobile with the paradox of a consumer culture running on empty.
GALLERY TWO: Using polystyrene, cellophane, coloured sand and scented glycerin, Lauren Hall transforms the gallery into a cave-like environment. Quoting the poetry of Percy Shelley, "With Crystal Column and Clear Shrines of Pearl" illustrates the way we now experience the sublime as a tourist destination.

Kill the Workers!
Janice Kerbel’s recent work Kill the Workers! continues the London-based artist’s engagement with codified language and the elements of theatrical composition. A rigged system of theatrical lights is used to portray the ambitions of a lone spotlight attempting to achieve a state of “open white.” Dramaturgy and narrative progression are alluded to through changes in beam intensity, colour, pattern and direction. With these cues, the lights become both the characters and mechanics of the composition, sharing the roles of staging and performing.

Dil Hildebrand is one brave painter. In his new show “Back to the Drawing Board (Reprise),” he stares down the old adage that no one wants to look at a green painting, let alone buy one. There's not just one green painting here—there's a room of them.
