Magali Reus, Bill Bollinger, John Divola Exhibits at Andrea Rosen Gallery 2 Open Today

Folded and riveted powder coated steel, stitched fleece blanket, wadding, protective plastic mesh, food packaging, powder coated steel. Image courtesy of the artist and The Approach, London. Andrea Rosen Gallery is pleased to present a three-person exhibition of Magali Reus, Bill Bollinger and John Divola. Shifting away from the supremacy of a single object, each artist here acknowledges a more phenomenological experience of material and form.

This juxtaposition of unique trajectories is a way to not only contextualize work being made now within the established field of contemporary art, but also a way of showing how artists like Divola and Bollinger remain a vital part of the discourse.
