Today was the last day of Alex Weinstein | Power Lines + Space Oddities. What a spectacular show! If you missed it, don’t worry—we still have a few pieces available to view at the gallery. #spaceoddity #powerlines #alexweinstein #exhibition (at Leslie Sacks Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1zsyDPFcNw/?igshid=kc4as3ztkh61
#StaffPicks Alex Weinstein by Diana McNeill - As a California girl, I am a fan of Alex Weinstein's languid, sky-scape renderings and having lived in Los Angeles for nearly a decade, his Power Line drawings are some of my favorite work. The low-hanging, black lines are characteristic of the view of the Santa Monica skylines near my apartment. - In Weinstein's characteristically reductive manner, he excludes any sort of referential imagery (like buildings or trees) so that the compositions of line and color read as pure abstractions. The radiant colors of his "urban nocturnes" are born out of smog and pollution, which is central to Weinstein's exploration of climate change and human impact on the environment. - Although an ostensibly "ugly" subject matter, Weinstein manages to key into and elevate the contradictory beauty that comes from it. In our current exhibition of these drawings, I am particularly drawn to Power Line Drawing #25, 2019. The jewel-toned sfumato effect is mesmerizing and captures the stunning combinations of colors that uniquely emblazon the Southern California skies. - Alex Weinstein, Power Line Drawing #25 , 2019, acrylic, graphite and colored pencil on paper, 17 x 14 inches - #alexweinstein #weinstein #workonpaper #acrylic #graphite #coloredpencil #sfumato #sunset #sunsetporn #santamonica #skyline #powerlines #powerline #drawing #originalart #surfer #surfinspired #surf #gemstone #jeweltone (at Leslie Sacks Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1uCb7tlaop/?igshid=1pu50879g04ww

Alex Weinstein’s Space Oddities are truly otherworldly. Several people say it’s like looking at the surface of the moon while others see them as a void. Space Oddities indeed. #spaceoddity #alexweinstein @vaguestudio (at Leslie Sacks Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1j7WlzlMKJ/?igshid=1ple0q0xz1kwl

#FridayFeature | Alex Weinstein - The Space Oddity series is an investigation into quasi-monochromatic painting with an exploration into the primary, reductive act of simply regarding artwork. The work in this series is typically round panels with countless thin washes and sprays of acrylic color applied concentrically. - The paintings eventually wind up looking a bit like holes, once they are installed on the wall and that optical effect is both gratifying and relevant to the inquiry of the work. What does it mean to stop and look at an artwork? These pieces are driven by the visual interaction; the stimulation that occurs when beheld. They aim to focus the attention of the viewer for no specific purpose other than the pause required to see. They are decidedly a-political and barely referential. - They are inspired in part by natural light and the sea-horizon and the work of minimalist and colorfield painters whose work on the transcendent capacity of color resonates here. They are meant be solitary and personal works that encourage slower investigation and directness with the viewer. Ultimately that relationship - viewer to picture - is what is at stake here and these works should operate as personal spaces for introspective contemplation. - Alex Weinstein, Los Angeles, 2019, @vaguestudio - Alex Weinstein, Space Oddity #8, 2019, acrylic on MDF panel, diameter: 44 inches - #newwork #alexweinstein #spaceoddity (at Leslie Sacks Gallery) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0q6aAvFIM_/?igshid=pqiev5l826mt
