An exhibition of eleven new works by Bruce Nauman, Fingers and Holes, opens February 28, 1995 at Gemini G.E.L. at Joni Moisant Weyl. As the title implies, the monoprint, seven small etchings, and three lithographs in this series all use the subject of hands as predominant imagery.
References to the human hand abound in Nauman's work, from fingerprints left on sculpture in the 1960, to photographs of his own hands and feet in 1978, to more recent works in neon.
Fingers and Holes

Booster and 7 Studies / Dictionary Series
October 28, 1994 – December 26, 1994
Booster and 7 Studies by Robert Rauschenberg opens at Gemini G.E.L. at Joni Moisant Weyl on October 28th, and will be on view through November 26th, 1994. This series of eight prints, Rauschenberg's first project with Gemini G.E.L. in 1967, was a groundbreaking collaboration. His concept to incorporate x-rays, photographic material, rubbings from printed images and direct drawing was itself a technological breakthrough in printmaking. Yet it was the size and scale of the "Booster" print that pushed printmaking to its limits at this early stage.
"Some New Prints" and "Some More New Prints"
September 7, 1994 – October 22, 1994
"Some New Prints" and "Some More New Prints" by David Hockney opens at Gemini G.E.L. at Joni Moisant Weyl on September 7th and will be on view through October 22nd. There are 12 editions in Hockney's most recent collaboration with Gemini G.E.L., the Los Angeles-based artists' workshop. In these newest works, Hockney pursues what he refers to as "narrative abstraction"; the works at first appear abstract but they have a visual theme woven into them, with references to outdoor landscapes, interior environments, and personal, emotional "landscapes".
A French Horn Player, a Square Blue Moon, and Other Subjects
April 1, 1994 – August 31, 1994
Eight new print editions by John Baldessari are currently on view at Gemini G.E.L. at Joni Moisant Weyl on September 7th and will be on view through October 22nd. These are the artist's first prints published by Gemini G.E.L., the Los Angeles-based artists' workshop, and are large, colorful combinations of lithography and screenprinting. In these prints, Baldessari explores a recurring theme of analyzing parts and wholes of an image. As he states, "I'm interested in what happens when two images come together and in the meaning that ensues."
