Ellie Ga: Quarries
By Amelia SaulThe world of Ellie Gas Quarries is almost entirely after the fact, in a time when current events have hardened into history or dissolved into personal memory.
Shirin Neshat: The Fury
By Amelia SaulShirin Neshats impassioned and lyrical show The Fury at Gladstone Gallery is in black and white and rainbows of gray. Warm gray in the photographs that hang, halo-lit, in the first room; icier gray in the dual-channel video The Fury (2022) which, despairingly facing itself on two walls, is installed in the back room.
IN A DREAM YOU SAW A WAY TO SURVIVE AND YOU WERE FULL OF JOY
By Amelia SaulThe artists in this show tend towards identities that spill over and beyond traditional boundaries; the humor, sadness, dissolution, joy, plasticity, the lost and found of this more liquid existence is all in evidence. If one were to write, in contrast, in a dream you saw a way to survive and were full of joy youd get the feeling.

By Amelia SaulTo Han, the funny-not-funny is a vacuum, a vertiginous and politically demagnetized area between two people who experience the same phenomena in radically different ways. You think Hans Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2022) is funny, your girlfriend does not.
