SPECIAL EDITION — ESSEX STREET — NEW YORK CITY



ESSEX STREET Jef Geys Bubble Paintings April 9–May 21, 2017 ESSEX STREET is proud to present its first exhibition with Jef Geys (b. 1934 Leopoldsburg, lives and works in Balen, Belgium). The exhibition is a survey of Geys’ works, potentially stretching back many decades, although every single work takes the new date of 2017. Every piece remains in the bubble from its previous exhibition. The works must remain in bubble forever. They can never be unwrapped. Geys painted red, blue and yellow paint marks on the edges of the packaging tape around the work, to guarantee the seal. These marks are a notary’s version of painting. The works are priced based not on the vintage, technique or subject of the painting beneath the bubble, but solely on their resulting scale. The largest work in the exhibition, Roy Sorenson, appears to contain an empty frame. The smallest work in the exhibition, Foto's Gewad (Parcel), appears to contain an installation of twelve historic photographs mounted on panel. Some works contain paintings with other artists’ signatures. One work contains a sculpture consisting of a foam core model of the M HKA (Museum of Contemporary Art, Antwerp) inside a cardboard box. Some of the wrapped works are labeled by the museum or gallery where they were previously exhibited. Many of the works have a small image attached to the face. Some works have the artist’s name on them, and some of these are a signature. Every work contains another work. Each Bubble Painting is on a shelf designed by the artist. It is a Duchampian exhibition which sidesteps the importance of vision in art. It is also an exhibition which is overly aware of the conditions of the art trade, showing paintings in the accouterments with which the vast majority will spend most of their lives. It is also an exhibition about a shared responsibility with collectors and museums (Geys builds into the format of the work a trust in the parameters) even when that means denying an earlier work of his. It is also an exhibition demonstrating how we label and categorize, and designate between the specific and the general. And also, of course, perhaps most of all, it is an exhibition about customs and travel and borders and moving through the world freely. Geys informed the gallery, that if at any point in transit, a shipper or customs agent inspected a painting and opened the Bubble, breaking the red, blue or yellow paint mark seal, then the work was to be considered destroyed, and he would expect a full payout. Such an event was not entirely unlikely, considering the times, or that one of the works’ label reads BRUEGEL. Hanging on the back wall of the exhibition is a work from Geys’ long ongoing series of Names. Marie Gouze was an eighteenth century French feminist playwright and political pamphleteer. Her extensive works, especially the Declaration of the Rights of Women in 1791, served a crucial role in the campaign for women’s rights, including the right to divorce, which was granted. She also attacked the economics of slavery and promoted its abolition. In 1784 Gouze wrote the very first French play to feature a slave as the protagonist. The writer changed her name to Olympe de Gouges when she was 18. She was guillotined in Paris in 1793. Since finishing his art studies in 1958, Geys has maintained an inventory of his entire output, and this inventory has in turn become generative of other works. The first entry is from 1947, when the artist was thirteen. He worked as a public school teacher in Balen from 1960–1989, teaching children aged ten to fifteen. During this time he also exhibited original works in the classroom from Fontana, Lichtenstein, Warhol, and Rauschenberg and even took his students on a class trip to visit the studio of Broodthaers. He once made a work in the series of Names, by hanging a banner baring the name of one of his then current students on the classroom wall. In 1984 he organized an exhibition at the school drawn from the collection of the Museum of Ghent, including works from Old Masters through Stanley Brouwn. That exhibition, for instance, is included in his inventory.

ESSEX STREET Since the late 1960s Geys has been the editor and publisher of his local newspaper, the Kempens Informatieblad, initially interspersing the news with his own work. Since 1971 an edition of the Kempens Informatieblad has accompanied most of his exhibitions. In 1977 Gey built a house with only his own hands and labor using salvaged material, and then lived there for some months. In 1987 or 1989 he organized a two-person gallery exhibition of his own work with that of a fourteen year old boy with a similar sounding name, without distinguishing the works between artists. Jef Geys represented Belgium in the 2009 Venice Biennale. His work was included in Documenta 11 in 2007, Skulptur Projekte Munster in 1997, and the 21st Bienal de Sao Paulo in 1991. He has had institutional one or two person exhibitions at De Vleeshal, Middelburg, The Netherlands (1987); Palais des Beaux-Arts, Brussels, Belgium (1992); Middelheim, Antwerpen, Belgium (1999 & 2014); Kunstverein Munchen, Munich, Germany (2001); Kunsthalle Lophem, Loppem-Zedelgem, Belgium (2003); Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven, The Netherlands (2004); Institut d'art contemporain Villeurbanne/Rhone-Alpes, Villeurbanne, France (2007 & 2017); Bawag Foundation, Vienna, Austria (2009); Museum of Contemporay Art Detroit, Detroit, Michigan (2010); Jakob Smithmuseum, Mol, Belgium (2011); MuHKA Museum voor Hedendaagse Kunst Antwerpen, Antwerp, Belgium (2011); Royal Museum of Fine Arts of Belgium, Brussels, Belgium (2012); CNEAI, Chatou, France (2012, 2014 & 2016); Culturgest, Lisbon, Portugal (2012); Cubitt, London, UK (2013); Les Bains-Douches, Alencon, France (2014 & 17); S.M.A.K., Gent, Belgium (2015); CAPC musée d'art contemporain de Bordeaux, Bordeaux, France (2016); and Centre d'art contemporain / Passages, Troyes, France (2017). This is at least his fourth public exhibition in New York following Galerie 3A (2015), Carriage Trade (2011), and Orchard (2007). ESSEX STREET must give gratitude to Galerie Max Mayer, Dusseldorf; Nina Geys; and Jef Geys. ESSEX STREET is open Wednesday–Sunday, 12–6PM.

Jef Geys Bubble Paintings by Sam Korman Flash Art Summer 2017



Jef Geys Bubble Paintings by Annie Godfrey Larmon Spike Art Magazine Summer 2017


Like his fellow Belgian Marcel Broodthaers, Jef Geys (*1934) makes work about the conditions of production and distribution. But if Broodthaers gave us romantic objects that mirror the ways in which reproduction contributes to a paradigm marked by an ambiguous relationship to reality, Geys doubles down on facts, on material evidence, to give us something apparently prosaic and sincere. Each of the works in his “Bubble Paintings” series (2017) comprises another work – also by Geys – still packaged in the bubble wrap used to ship it from its previous location. Poised on customized shelves, the packaged works aestheticize the procedures of transmission. Packing tape, labels, and handscrawled notes become compositional elements, revealing their origins as gestures. The series thus underscores welltrodden critical territory – the banal fact that most paintings spend most of

their time in storage, while pointing to art market bureaucracy, the arbitrariness of artistic value, and the fast metabolism of commodity fetishism. Where it gets interesting is in the finger pad–sized daubs of red, yellow, and blue paint that in each case straddle the bubble wrap and the tape that binds it. If the packages are unwrapped, these seals will break. The consequence of such tampering is extreme: the series is exhibited under the

condition that if any packaging is opened, the piece will be considered effectively destroyed, and the artist remunerated accordingly. This conceit reflects a style of paranoia that seems to sum up this post-truth political moment. Geys has long worked from a market-resistant, community-oriented, and pragmatically ethical place. Metaphorically, but also literally – he taught middle school for nearly thirty years in Balen, a suburb of Antwerp, where he also published the local newspaper Kempens Informatieblad. For him, I’d wager, in the contemporary climate of deliberate obfuscation and radical unmooring, to make work in “bad faith” as Broodthaers did is to be unproductively jaded, even malignant. These pieces neither hide displeasing truths nor present truths as pleasing falsehoods. They present facts. This isn’t to say there isn’t pleasure in this work. There is a playful logic to Geys’s placement of red, yellow, blue. Desire, too – some of the wrapped works are partially viewable through the pocked plastic and others foreclosed to the viewer completely, displayed in verso. And there are subtler ruses: Woman & Vase is next to another Woman & Vase. All that appears to distinguish them is a single inch in width and some details of the packaging: the left hand work is scantily wrapped and the one on the right has a more pregnant form, with four quadrants of folded excess plastic. With simple means, such works stage complicated equations of authenticity, reproduction, representation, and suggestion. The mythologies of value in play here function through the same combination of spectacle and speculation that allows populist goons to rise to power. Facts depend on trust, and vice versa. If Geys’s trust is misplaced, his works will bear material witness to the deceit. And our trust is challenged, too, of course. Each of these primary-colored marks is a simple gesture with high stakes. Annie Godfrey Larmon
