Plans and Interruptions, Fran Siegel at Lesley Heller
Fran Siegel's show at Lesley Heller is reviewed by Stephane Maine for Artcritical.
... the artist reflects on how the history of population movements in and around a particular city determines its manifestation in geographical space and, in turn, the myriad ways that that predominantly horizontal spatial manifestation might lend itself to pictorial representation....Her procedure involves a tremendous amount of collage, so that cut edges and the gaps between them—where the wall often is visible—are crucial compositional devices. In fact, it is useful to consider this work drawing as composition, since the way the pieces are knit together is fundamental to their significance. moreSiegel is providing an artist talk on Nov. 27, 4:30 at the gallery
