Ndr Nw Mgmt (Under New Management) presents Glitch Ndr Nw Mgmt (Under New Management) presents GlitchxGesture at the UNTITLED Art Fair in Miami, Booth C26. This group show features contemporary artists' working across all mediums. The artworks move past conventional systems of symbolism, mythology and topography, manifesting imaginary relationships between the self and real world, the physical and virtual spaces. In this collection, recognizable imagery transitions to ephemeral expressions of recalled memories, images that haunt and linger, at once ghostly and saintly. Christian Curiel's magical realist paintings of vulnerable people are depicted in environments that transition from representation to abstraction, suspending reality and evading a straightforward narrative. Roxanne Jackson reinvents the craft of ceramics, utilizing traditional and contemporary practices and drawing upon animals and myths to create hybrid creatures that are reminiscent of petrified fossils, causing us to reflect on the monster inside us all. Ori Carino's innovative Analogue Holograms to his Ultra Real Digital Assemblages bend reality, shifting our focal awareness in a Meta expansion and encompassing both the physical and virtual worlds, an evolution of the prism of known experience. Garret Kane’s sculptures and reliefs skillfully combine synthetic and organic materials and digital and technical processes to create artworks that critique throwaway culture yet provide a glimpse of a hopeful future where technology and mankind are interconnected. Theda Stanford’s colorful, contorted textiles suggest a collection of forgotten memories and multilayered experiences-- from painful, joyful, and shameful-- which inform who we are now and will continue to be. These artworks are a portal to beyond what we know, arousing an exodus from constrictive social norms. They are in limbo, between states of transmutation, transformation, and transition. They imply that there is a doorway, a path beyond boundaries and beyond physical senses, the path from memory to perception, tangible to digital, ideation to creation. The fair runs from Tuesday, 30 November through Saturday, 04 December, 2021 at 12th Street & Ocean Drive.
