CONTENTS FIRSTLINGS BY TERRY SUHRE AFTERWORD BY BRUNO L. DAVID CHECKLIST AND IMAGES OF THE BIOGRAPHYEXHIBITION

Arny Nadler’s recent work seeks to address the predicament of the human form’s fragility and its endless struggle to adapt to life’s ever-changing circumstances. The “predicament” Nadler refers to in statements on his work is the uneasy, existential awareness of an unsympathetic, and likely hostile, existence that is not predisposed to human wants or needs. A reality that continually tests the body’s (and the spirit’s) limitations, revealing its susceptibility to everyday suffering and humiliation.

The body’s limitations and desires have been ongoing themes in Nadler’s work for close to twenty years. These anxieties were present in Nadler’s 2001 Imperfect Adaptations/Inevitable Endings series where the artist created functionally useless rehabilitative equipment illustrating the body’s limitations and society’s failure at restoration.

6 FIRSTLINGS BY TERRY SUHRE

Moving outside the studio Nadler expanded on this theme and addressed the duality of the human body’s limitation and dominance in the environment with large-scale and installation works such as Whelm (Gallery 210, University of Missouri-St. Louis, 2012), Gross Point Confluence (Evanston Art Center, 2010) and his imposing architectonic sculpture series Beacons (2006).

Nadler’s experiments with clay led to the Gilt series (2013), the precursor of Firstlings. With the Gilt series the artist starts to invest in the expressive and metaphorical potential of ceramic. Titles, such as rhizus despero (root of despair) 2012, and rhizus perpessio (root of suffering) 2012, that reference emotional and psychological qualities demonstrate a conceptual change in Nadler’s work.

Nadler followed these works with a group, titled Infrastructure, of concrete and rebar works where aspects of the human body are suggested. Here the artist begins to step away from the modernist fetish of industrial materials to experiment with more ‘traditional’ art materials. With the shift in materials there is also a shift in form away from the formalist linear and planar structures of earlier pieces to the more biomorphic and gestural expressions.

Terry Suhre is an art writer based in St. Louis, Missouri, and former Research Professor and Director of Gallery 210 at the University of Missouri, St. Louis. This text is one in a series of the gallery’s exhibitions written by fellow gallery artists and friends.

With the shift of his studio practice to more traditional art materials there was an additional emphasis placed on drawing. Nadler’s drawings were, at first, a warm-up exercise, a practice not dissimilar to Surrealist automatism. As work on Firstlings progressed Nadler discovered in the ink-brush drawings a sense of motion, recognizing a relationship between the fluidity of the ink on the paper and of the plasticity of the clay. In each drawing he looks for an event, a transition, the suggestion of a kind of form, then seeks to incorporate that fluidity and dynamic into the sculptures. The drawings in the exhibition stand as separate and fully realized works created contemporaneously and in dialogue with the sculptures. As noted above Nadler has been preoccupied with the notion of the intangibility of physical wholeness, the body, constantly in flux with a sense of uncertainty, a little broken, always incomplete but always becoming. In Firstlings his figures do not have complete agency over themselves as they become aware of their environment and struggle to evolve. Each work by Nadler stops time’s flow and provides a glimpse of living at the edge of chaos.

7

The earlier pieces in the Firstling series, such as the Firstling No.12, 2017 and Firstling No. 9, 2017, are suggestive of formal classical figures where the more recent grey works, such as Firstling No. 25, 2020 are more expansive, baroque and expressive. Nadler’s strategy of using neutral hues, black, white, and grey, is the artist’s way of having the piece be about form rather than color to convey a sense of the object being the same substance throughout.

Firstlings is the logical evolution in Nadler’s work. With this series his warping and morphing of the human form are never entirely resolved into a single reading.

8 BYAFTERWORDBRUNOL.DAVID

I am pleased to present, Firstlings: Sculptures + Works on Paper an exhibition by Arny Nadler. This is Nadler’s first exhibition with the Nadlergallery.writes of his work: “My sculptures investigate the body in a state of ambiguous metamorphosis. Many works begin as individual parts that are eventually grafted together in a manner that nods at structural order but disregards anatomical and proportional correctness. Irregular outgrowths in the material signal erratic germination or atrophy—a misfiguration of append ages. The resulting forms are often simultaneously heroic and absurd—they acknowledge the limitations of the body and flout conventional response systems. Where traditional figurative sculpture often captures a predictable motion in time and space, my work changes as the viewer moves around it. What happens on one side might be wholly unanticipated on the other. By working against symmetry, I confront the expectations of wholeness for the body.

My work draws on human, animal, and otherworldly bodies, all precariously gesturing, as if they themselves do not know what they truly are. Approaching this idea with a sometimes-wry sense of humor, these self-deprecating forms are subject to the same gravitational challenges we all face as beings of this earth. These strange bodily forms defy disambiguation. Their stilled and puzzling nature is grasping for truth or a viable system to make things whole.”

Nadler has been included in exhibitions at the Orange County Center for Contemporary Art, the Clay Center of New Orleans, and the on-line exhibition of the Korean International Ceramic Biennale 2019. His outdoor sculptures have been exhibited at venues across the country, including the Newport Beach Civic Center, the Evanston Art Center, the Kingston Sculpture Biennial, the Catherine Konner Sculpture Park in West Nyack, NY, Cedarhurst Center for the Arts and the University of Alabama, Huntsville. In 2017, He moderated the panel Material Poetics at the International Sculpture Conference in Kansas City, MO. He has presented at the Foundations in Art: Theory and Education Conference and the Mid-America College Art Association Conference and has been a visiting artist at several universities and colleges. Nadler is a recipient of a George Sugarman Foundation grant, a St. Louis Regional Arts Commission Fellowship and two Faculty Creative Research Grants from the Sam Fox School of Design & Visual Arts at Washington University in St. Louis.

Invaluable gallery staff support for the exhibition was provided by Jordan Lee, Lily Hollinden, Grace Ray, and Nina R. Huang.

Support for the creation of significant new works of art has been the core to the mission and program of the Bruno David Gallery since its founding in 2005. I would like to express my sincere thanks to Terry Suhre for his thoughtful eassay. I am deeply grateful to Lily Hollinden, Naomi Yu, and Alex McLaughlin, who gave much time, talent, and expertise to the production of this catalogue.
