Soaping Debi's Breast, May 21, 2005 pencil on paper, 30"x 22" Danica Phelps Wake Zach Feuer Gallery is please to present an exhibition of Danica Phelps titled "Wake". For ten years, Danica Phelps has been documenting and drawing her life, using a monetary (and later erotic) system to provide parameters and guidelines for her drawings. Instead of focusing on her whole life as in the past, "Wake" spends months studying a very small part of it: the process of waking each morning. This show consists of 36 drawings of Danica taking a shower and getting ready for the day. In addition to the shower drawings, she will be exhibiting 20 drawings that each document one week of her life, with detailed documentation of money, time and making love. All of these shower and week-long drawings will be installed directly on top of tracings of drawings that where exhibited in her last show. The tracings will be installed as closely as possible to the way they where installed in her 2003 show "Integrating Sex into Every Day Life." In the second gallery space, Phelps will be exhibiting a book, drawings, and a text from the project "Writer's Trade." In this project, Phelps asked writers to trade a text about a subject found in her work, not about her work itself. In exchange, the writers were able pick a drawing of their choosing. This is Phelps' third trade project. The first was a trade with Brooklyn artists and the second was a trade with artists in LFL Gallery's flat files. The book "Writer's Trade" is published by Grinnell College. We are also pleased to announce "A Book of D's", an artist book by Danica Phelps documenting 90 days of making love with drawings and calendars. Both "Writer's Trade" and "A Book of D's" will be available at the gallery. Danica Phelps, born in 1971, lives and works in Brooklyn. This will be her 5th solo exhibition in New York. Exhibition: September 1 - October 1, 2005 Gallery hours: Tues-Sat 10 am - 6 pm Zach Feuer Gallery (LFL) 530 West 24th Street USA-New York, NY 10011 Telephone +1 212 989 7700 Fax +1 212 989 7720 Email info@zachfeuer.com www.zachfeuer.com |
