Ann Hamilton is well known for her large-scale installations and collaborations with diverse groups of visual artists, poets, and performers. The five new lithographs on view now are a continuation of a previously published series of eight screen prints related to the artist’s 2015 exhibition the common SENSE, commissioned by the Henry Art Gallery. As a Visiting Fellow at the University of Washington, Hamilton was given unfettered access to the Burke Museum of Natural History and Culture, where she was seduced by the extensive collection of mammal, bird, and amphibian specimens.

In the two series that comprise this release, titled Circuit Boards and Transcending Grids, we see Saban’s fascination with linework. For the six Circuit Boards, Saban integrates computer-designed lines, more solid in appearance, with linework created with a handheld electric rotatory tool called a Dremel. It brings to the viewer what appears to be a vibrant switchboard, with energy generated from the Dremel adding movement from the artist’s hand.

Gemini G.E.L. at Joni Moisant Weyl is pleased to present Gemini’s third collaboration with Los Angeles based artist Analia Saban featuring six new etchings. In this latest series, the artist delves into more conceptual ideas, considering the steps involved in creating and presenting an edition. The resulting works call attention to these norms in a thoughtful and refreshing way.
