Brooklyn Museum of Art, Brooklyn, NY USA | | Kevin Yates : New Cast Bronze Sculptures
Susan Hobbs Gallery, Toronto, ON CA Canada Kevin Yates� solo exhibition at Susan Hobbs in Toronto, features a selection of new cast bronze sculptures of vernacular architecture in miniature. Along the gallery walls, weathered clapboard dwellings sit in silent intervals on an invisible horizon line, creating a suburban landscape caught in quiet repose. Yates has painstakingly sculpted each building as a mirrored reflection of itself as if each one was partially submerged in water. These tiny, hermetic models exist quietly in the aftermath of a larger disaster, becoming impenetrable spaces to contemplate the psychology of this deserted community. - Read Indepth Article at http://www.absolutearts.com

| | | Who Shot Rock and Roll : A Photographic History, 1955 to the Present
Brooklyn Museum of Art, Brooklyn, NY USA At the Brooklyn Museum of Art from October 30, 2009 to January 31, 2010 in the Morris A. and Meyer Schapiro Wing, 'Who Shot Rock and Roll' is the first major museum exhibition on rock and roll to put photographers in the foreground, acknowledging their creative and collaborative role in the history of rock music. From its earliest days, rock and roll was captured in photographs that personalized, and frequently eroticized, the musicians, creating a visual identity for the genre. The photographers were handmaidens to the rock-and-roll revolution, and their images communicate the social and cultural transformations that rock has fostered since the1950s. - Read Indepth Article at http://www.absolutearts.com
