Friedman Benda is pleased to present Misha Kahn’s third solo show at the gallery. In Soft Bodies, Hard Spaces, the Brooklyn-based modern artist exploits innovative processes across different media to propose an alternative environment, reflecting our natural sense of being through modern art.
The art exhibition title references Misha Kahn’s interest in the incongruity of what he refers to as our “strange, soft bodies” within the “hard, violent right angles” in which we reside.
“Our entire material culture constantly places images of the natural world in rectangular frames and builds textures that riff off the tension between our constructed civilization and our desire to escape it,” says Misha Kahn
Soft Bodies, Hard Spaces illustrates Misha Kahn’s peripatetic workflow, which alternates between analogue and digital production and equalizes material hierarchy. The modern art pieces incorporate cast metal, hand-weaving, and ceramic as part of his studio practices, as well as glass, which Kahn explored as a guest artist at The Corning Museum of Glass.
Misha Kahn debuts ambitious new works at Friedman Benda in his Claymation series, which melds 3D scans of carved contemporary art objects with virtually fabricated forms – forecasting the inevitable convergence of human touch with the computer’s own “intelligent” inclinations. “A Loose Understanding of the Spacetime Continuum,” a monumental tapestry on view, depicts a weaving sample designed in virtual reality and translated into handwoven mohair and embroidery.
