Jan De Vliegher, Studio View, 2012

Jan De Vliegher Exhibition at Mike Weiss Gallery

Thursday, May 3, 2012 - 4:00am to Saturday, June 9, 2012 - 4:00am

Mike Weiss gallery in NYC is organizing a solo-exhibition of work by the Flemish contemporary artist Jan De Vliegher, on view through June 9. The exhibition, entitled Treasury, is his first solo show in the U.S. De Vliegher created a series of monumental paintings which reference the artist's obsessive hunt for otherwise overlooked porcelain plates. United in their ritualistic and repetitive compositions, the series of circular abstractions reveal De Vliegher's fascination with the painting experience while also speaking to broader themes of contemporary collecting.
