Online Exhibition

In Being Double

The Pace Staff Show

Aug 3 – Sep 9, 2023

In Being Double—an exhibition of artworks by Pace’s international staff members, curated by Tumelo Nwanma (Gallery Coordinator) and John Richey (Senior Registrar)—features paintings, sculptures, photographs, prints, drawings, and films that reflect the creativity and imagination of the gallery’s team across New York, Los Angeles, London, Geneva, and Hong Kong.

Organized by the Artist & Programming Engagement sub-committee of the gallery’s Culture & Equity team, this exhibition focuses on enactments of doubling in everyday, lived experiences as well as the ecosystems that govern the natural environment. In their curatorial statement for the show, Nwanma and Richey write that In Being Double presents an opportunity for Pace staff members “to submit artworks that illustrate and explore their internal and external ecosystems. To inhabit the alter of their lives, and to allow the humanity of their hidden selves to exist in physical space across mediums.”

This digital presentation of In Being Double complements the in-person exhibition, on view at Pace’s 540 West 25th Street gallery in New York through August 18, bringing together works that figure in the physical show alongside online-exclusive pieces.

As part of In Being Double, the show’s organizers have established a partnership with Glenn Quentin—an award-winning artist, founder of Higher Vibrations Collective, and collaborator at the Brooklyn-based nonprofit Recess Art—to devise a guided meditation for the exhibition. A prompt written by Quentin, which appears in this online iteration of In Being Double, encourages viewers to consider the interconnectivity between themselves and the artists who welcome us into their personal worlds through their work.

A curated reading list—produced by the gallery’s Research and Archives department in collaboration with the exhibition’s organizers—is also included within this online presentation.

In Being Double continues a tradition of Pace staff exhibitions that goes back some 25 years in the gallery’s history. Through these presentations, Pace showcases and celebrates the artistic talents and diverse perspectives of its team members around the globe.

Recess

(opens in a new window) Recess partners with artists to build a more just and equitable creative community. By welcoming radical thinkers to imagine and shape networks of resilience and safety, Recess defines and advances the possibilities of contemporary art.

For this year’s staff show, we’ve partnered with Glenn Quentin—an award-winning artist, founder of Higher Vibrations Collective, and collaborator at Recess—to devise a guided meditation to accompany the exhibition. As you engage the works in this show, we hope that Glenn’s prompt will encourage you to consider the interconnectivity between you and the artists who welcome you into the ecosystems of their personal worlds.

Human-ity Reflection

Take in this world of wonder around you. Take an opportunity to just notice. Notice what you can that lives internal and what lives external. Where do you stand?

Take a few breaths to SEE with your entire BEing what’s in front of you.

Placing one hand on your heart and the other hand on your belly. Let’s connect to our breath.

What do you SEE? What do you SEE? What do you SEE? What do you SEE? What do you SEE?

What do you FEEL? What do you FEEL? What do you FEEL? What do you FEEL? What do you FEEL?

What do you THINK? What do you THINK? What do you THINK? What do you THINK? What do you THINK?

Take a collective breath

Breathe in Breathe out

“An ecosystem is a geographic area where plants, animals, and other organisms coexist in a physical environment working together to form a bubble of life. This bubble encompasses an internal landscape where the vestiges of this external ecosystem are echoed by the mirror self.”

What Does It Mean To Co-Exist?

Take a moment and respond to this prompt In a way that feels most appropriate.

Journal - Move - Paint - Speak - Sing

We need each other in this web of life. Always in a state of co-creation. What will you create next?

She has travelled to many lands and many psyches only to find that music forever calls to her. Gaia’s Guitar took 30 pandemic hours to complete; and represents that going home to Pacha Mama, and unplugging, could be equivalent to painting an instrument and plugging it in… when you live in the city.

Jonathan Vidal

he/him
Geneva, Switzerland

Jonathan Vidal (b. 1990, Hyères, France), received his BA at ESADMM (Marseille) and MFA at HEAD (Geneva). In recent years, his practice has focused on the analysis and formal description of neoliberal doctrines and their underlying violence. In his work, the transition from theory to form often takes place through speculative narratives. He revisits fragments of these sources and reinterprets them in painting, drawing, and sculpture. Vidal's work tends towards the construction of a speculative logic that highlights and plays on the symbolic dysfunctions and beliefs attached to these value systems.

Valeri addresses these unassigned areas as laboratories of biodiversity, even as they collect the effluvia of human action, the mass-produced materials, and infrastructure necessary to support us and enable our activities.

Adriano has worked at Pace as a preparator since November 2019.

Anthony B. Creeden

he/him
b. Washington, D.C.
Lives and works in Los Angeles, CA

Interested in the familiar and yet disparate connections of modern life, Anthony B. Creeden creates paintings that combine digital images captured during his daily walks around the Koreatown neighborhood of Los Angeles as well as early mornings with his two pet cats—images which are then printed on fabric and used as visual substrates. The surfaces of his works are built up with a traditional rabbit skin glue gesso to which pigments, suspended in water, are washed over and quickly absorbed. The end result resembles something closer to a fresco.

Creeden holds an MFA from The University of Texas at Austin and a BFA from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago. His works have been exhibited at the Elmhurst Art Museum in Elmhurst, Illinois; Edward Cella Gallery in Los Angeles; and William Benington Gallery in London.

Frank Lentini received an MFA from Pratt Institute and has maintained a studio in Brooklyn since 1995. Lentini has contributed to numerous group exhibitions and residencies in New York and abroad. His work draws on perception and memory as it relates to his own personal experience. Working with abstraction and color, he uses a process of blind drawing and collage to both delineate space and sculpturally accentuate the gesture. Marks build to fold into and out of each other, simultaneously hiding information and creating a sense of flux.

Cole Hansen received a BFA in photography from the California College of the Arts in 2012. Hansen launched “Ugly Rugly” in July 2017 with collaborator and partner Lauren Hansen, a fashion and design professional as an exploration into the production of wild and wacky home goods through unconventional textile methods. Based in Bushwick, NY, Ugly Rugly began as a result of both collaborators’ art practices as it combined Lauren’s colorful sewing with Cole’s tufting techniques. Inspired by Russian and Soviet avant-garde art, the Memphis movement, and Abstract Expressionism, Ugly Rugly innovates textile home goods and objects that embody a silly, irreverent, and cheerful spirit. Ugly Rugly’s goal is to “make soft objects for a hard world.”

Cole has worked with Pace for three years as a Viewing Coordinator.

Carbon Anderson is a genre- and medium-fluid artist who moves primarily between painting and sound. Their practice is a binary-disintegrating exploration of the complex and often contradictory drives of human experience. The concept of gravity threads through mediums as an analogy for existential query. The body floats, falls, is buoyed, weighted, fragmented, and temporarily dissolved.

Dustin McBride

My paintings explore the relationship between human experience and the myths and symbols we invent to understand ourselves. These collective symbols are investigated through the plastic formalities of painting, leading to a constant re-evaluation of meaning through mediation by the creator, viewer, medium, and form. How is the socially constructed meaning of a familiar image altered by the changing attitudes of a mass spectatorship? How is the individual to contend with this shifting environment when attempting to construct meaning in the world? My paintings are an effort to define the self in and against a semantic world that is both overdetermined and corrupted.

Ben Pederson

As I’ve aged, art has become more and more of a meditative, looking-within process. It’s an archeology of the heart and the mind. I focus on what a piece is doing, rather than what it is. I’ve found this to be the best way to allow a piece to become its best self and me to become mine.

Doni Dusan Lucas

he/him
New York, NY

In his work, Doni Lucas investigates the lack of connection the Black American has to their history of African symbols and patterns. Lucas uses modern patterns and forms to create an image that recalls African patterns. This series begins with referencing the pattern on the bottom of athletic shoes. The manipulated shoe print brings a strong, yet totally incorrect association with African symbols, marking them both as equally important and meaningless at the same time.

Doni works as an Art Resources Director at Pace.
