The multimedia works of Sonic Youth and those of the artists exhibited in the show reveal a possible alternative history of contemporary culture, with a critical discussion of the division between �high� and �popular� art, with topics such as youth rebellion, hunger, fashion and sex. The various sections revolve around a central area, which illustrates the band�s long history, with records, posters, T-shirts, instruments and photographs. - Read Indepth Article at http://www.absolutearts.com

| | | Sherrie Levine : New Works
Simon Lee Gallery, London, UK United Kingdom For her exhibition at Simon Lee Gallery, Levine presents new works that continue to re-contextualize the found object, using repetition, seriality and literalization to challenge ideas of originality, authorship and the autonomy of the art object. In framing postcards of fragments of forests in Aspen, and a very specific selection of poems from Baudelaire�s formative modernist volume Les Fleurs du Mal, and juxtaposing these with gilded bronze sculptures of Indian household deities, a double-headed creature, a cradle and a rocking horse, she creates still lives, introducing a moment, a gap in which the essence of these objects and words can be apprehended. The degree in which Levine alters their status from their original source varies from subject to subject but is ultimately irrelevant. Their presence here acts as the medium for the idea. Their re-presentation allows Levine�s aesthetic sensibility to extend into a realm of formal beauty in which the poetic dimension of her act of appropriation is revealed. - Read Indepth Article at http://www.absolutearts.com
