Four Play
Paula Cooper Gallery is pleased to announce a month-long winter pop-up exhibition in Palm Beach, Florida. The presentation will take place in a dedicated exhibition space housed in a converted industrial building from the 1920s, and will feature works on paper, painting, sculpture, and assemblage by Cynthia Hawkins, Sol LeWitt, Eric N. Mack, and Alan Shields. Coming from three distinct generations, the artists are united by their use of vibrant color, diverse materials, and abstract forms. The pop-up follows the gallery’s three-year residency on Worth Avenue, where sixteen exhibitions were presented between December 2020 and April 2023.
Using fabric and other found objects, Eric N. Mack (b. 1987) creates richly textured compositions that collapse the boundaries between fine art, fashion, and architecture. The exhibition will include examples of both suspended and wall-based works that repurpose overlooked materials gathered from Italian couturiers, international marketplaces, and the streets of Harlem where Mack lives. The mobile-like Satin and fluid evening dresses (2023) is a structure hanging from the ceiling propelled by the idea of a classical fountain, while Star spangled banner for Jasper Jonez (2024) is a painting in found fabric modelled after the American flag. Mack has been represented by Paula Cooper Gallery since 2021 and his first one-person exhibition with the gallery took place in New York in the fall of 2023.
