The Year is off to a Good Start with Positive Press concerning Last Years Work and my Future Upcoming Show at Michael Lord Gallery in Palm Springs, CA. For Details on the February Exhibition Please see the Michael Lord Gallery Web Site at http://www.michaelhlordgallery.com/ The Show will be Georgesco's First with Michael Lord.
The space is Immaculate with up to 6,000 sq ft of Exhibition Space and is one of the Top Galleries in The Coachella Valley. The Gallery was once a Parking Structure for the El Mirador Hotel one of Palm Springs finest back when the City was established and is steeped in History.
The Exhibition will comprise of 5 Table Top Monoliths and 3 Monumental Monoliths of Laser Cut #304 Stainless Steel in the Front Gallery and Pieces from 1998 through 2009 in the Back Gallery giving the viewer a glimpse into the metamorphic process Georgesco's work goes through from Series to Series. Stainless Steel is now the Material of choice for Christopher Georgesco. The Durability and ability to require minimum maintenance in all Outdoor environment's for Centuries to come and its Modern quality are both reasons for choosing this Material over Bronze.
The New Sculptures all from 2010 are from the "Rectangular Revisions Series". The New Sculptures are Laser Cut from a single Rectangular Plate of 1/2" #304 Stainless Steel Plate and opened up and reconfigured creating contrast between the Positive and Negative Space juts of position as the viewer moves around the Monolithic works. The Table Top Pieces are 32"h x 9" dia Base. The Monumental works are 8' high x 27" dia base.
The Works Exhibited in the Back Gallery comprise of several pieces from the 1998 show "Urns and Vessels". Several Works from the "The White Series" 1999-2001, Sculptures from the "Leaves Series" which range fro 2002-2008 and finally a Series of 4 Sculptures from a fairly New Series "Prismatic Centrifuge" dated 2009-2010. All together the Exibition should consist of around 25 pieces. Ambitious at any account. and should fall into The West Coast Event "Pacific Standard Time which is being kicked off with a Reception for the Artist and a Toast to Lyn Kienholz's New Encyclopedia "L.A. Rising: SoCal Artist before 1980" which will be held at The Getty in Brentwood,CA in December. The Encyclopedia which will include entries by Christopher Georgesco has been in the works for at least the last 3 years. It should be a interesting evening seeing my Contemporaries and Mentors attending the Event.
