Opening Days Opening Reception: Saturday, May 6th 5-8pm
Event Description San Diego, California - Madison Gallery is excited to present Donald Martiny's latest exhibition, "Urpflanze", following his successful debut at the 59th Venice Biennale. Martiny delves into the emotionally charged themes of blue during the Romanticism era, where the blue flower represented desire, love, and the metaphysical striving for the infinite and unreachable. "Urpflanze" translates to 'original plant' in German, which refers to Martiny's interpretation of the blue flower. Martiny's work explores the movement and progression of a sculptural brushstroke and abstract gesture, and his study of blues expands on these artistic ideas. He uses his artistic experience and masterful movements to represent this elusive blue flower in spontaneous ways, harmoniously working with the many tones and depths of blue. H.H. Boyesen described Martiny's interpretation of blue as "the deep and sacred longings of a poet's soul".

Through a panel discussion, we will explore the impact of these experiences on Italian American families and communities and examine the broader historical context that led to this dark chapter in American history. We are also pleased to have Christen T. Sasaki, PH.D. share her reflective comments on the topic, bringing her expertise and insights to the conversation. In addition to the film and discussion, we will have an exhibit showcasing artifacts and photos from this period, giving attendees a deeper understanding of this often-overlooked piece of history.

Event Description Oolong Gallery is happy to invite you to the upcoming show Chiffonnier / Ragpicker — an exhibition in dialogue between two Dutch artists: Bert Frings (Rotterdam, NL) and Bas Louter (Los Angeles, CA). The title cites French artist Edouard Manet’s painting The Ragpicker (1865-1870). The traditional chiffonnier makes a living by picking up and selling rags and junk. Bert and Bas produce art by reusing objects and images for practical or aesthetic purposes and so prolonging their usefulness. Bas Louter and Bert Frings met in Utrecht, Netherlands in 1997, and their ongoing dialogue now continues on view at Oolong Gallery. The exhibition will be about their favorite Dutch artist René Daniëls, the influence of moving to the colossal hybrid city LA and of classical vanitas — still life paintings of the late Middle Ages and Renaissance. The following interview between the two artists delves deeper into their practice.
