From Andrew Mer, longtime Glass Eye supporter and Executive Producer on DEPRAVED
Steven Kasher Gallery is delighted to present an exhibition of photographs titled Agog by Andrew Mer aka BigFusss mounted at Mitchell Algus Gallery, 132 Delancey St., NYC, from January 16th and now EXTENDED THROUGH FEBRUARY 15th.
Active in the artworld since moving to NY over 30 years ago, Fusss is exhibiting his photography for the first time. The 30 images chosen for this exhibition, shot 2020 to present, map New York City by day and by night. The city seduces Fusss. He stands agog, full of intense desire, ardent, camera at the ready.
Critic Amanda Church from Two Coats of Paint writes:
“Through an essentially a mechanical means, Mer conjures a deeply personal alternate universe, more illuminated and alluring than real life, extending the range of contemporary abstract photography.”
Critic Judd Tully writes:
“So this debut, emerging chrysalis-like from the pixel-light corridors of Instagram to printed editioned photographs on a gallery wall, feels a tangy bit revolutionary.”
