This is the first large-scale museum exhibition in North America devoted to the work of Joe Bradley. Included are his expressionistic canvases that record the detritus and spontaneity of the studio environment; subtly figurative send-ups of Minimalist painting; starkly primitive glyphs drawn in grease pencil on unprimed canvas and related drawings on paper; graphic silkscreen paintings; and modular Minimalist aluminum sculptures that Bradley pairs with textual directives. The exhibition traveled from the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, New York.

Animal Farm is a group exhibition curated by artist and musician Sadie Laska. A selection of works sketch a story that slides from figurative iconography to totemic abstraction, charting a world in churn; in print, in space, and on canvas. The show includes work by Jean-Michel Basquiat and Joe Bradley.

The Forever Now
Contemporary Painting in an Atemporal World

December 14, 2014–April 5, 2015
Museum of Modern Art, New York
www.moma.org

Forever Now presents the work of seventeen artists whose paintings reflect a singular approach that characterizes our cultural moment at the beginning of the new millennium: they refuse to allow us to define or even meter our time by them. They represent a wide variety of styles and impulses, but all use the painted surface as a platform, map, or metaphoric screen on which genres intermingle, morph, and collide. Work by Joe Bradley, Mark Grotjahn, and Mary Weatherford is included.
