{"title":"Glendalys Medina","description":"\u003cp\u003eGlendalys Medina (b. 1977, Puerto Rico) is a New York-based artist whose practice spans drawing, installation, performance and printed matter. Her work engages with systems of knowledge, spiritual practice, language and the body, often drawing on Afro-Caribbean traditions, astrology and the visual culture of self-help and esoteric publishing. She has exhibited widely in the United States and internationally.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe objects gathered here are printed ephemera relating to Medina’s exhibition history: catalogues, invitation cards and printed matter issued for presentations of her work. Each piece records a specific institutional moment and the printed form through which her practice entered public circulation.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"spots-dots-pips-tiles-exhibition-about-dominoes-hunter-east-harlem-gallery-new-york-2016","title":"SPOTS, DOTS, PIPS, TILES — An Exhibition about Dominoes, Hunter East Harlem Gallery, New York, 2016","description":"\u003cp\u003eExhibition catalogue. 13 × 20.5 cm. 52 pages. Staple-bound softcover, offset printed in colour and black-and-white. Published for the exhibition held 13 October 2016–11 February 2017 at Hunter East Harlem Gallery, Hunter College, 2180 Third Avenue at 119th Street, New York. Curated by Arden Sherman and María Elena Ortiz.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArtists include José Bento, Papo Colo, Donna Conlon \u0026amp; Jonathan Harker, Donald Evans, Radamés “Juni” Figueroa, Sarah Hotchkiss, Glendalys Medina, Hélio Oiticica, Rodolfo Peraza, Kenny Rivero, Betye Saar, Edra Soto \u0026amp; Dan Sullivan, Donald Sultan, Tafa, Ana Maria Tavares, Talwst, Erika Verzutti, Nari Ward and Lawrence Weiner.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe catalogue considers dominoes as both a visual system and a social structure: black and white, sequence and interruption, strategy and chance. Developed in direct relation to East Harlem and communities with strong Caribbean ties, the exhibition moved between formal abstraction, political history and the communal life surrounding the domino table. Individual works are reproduced alongside short contextual texts — among them José Bento’s modular floor sculpture \u003cem\u003eUntitled\u003c\/em\u003e (2014), designed to be walked on and rearranged like tiles in a game, and Lawrence Weiner’s word-based \u003cem\u003eDomino Set\u003c\/em\u003e (2003), a multiple in which each tile carries a word and its antonym. The exhibition later travelled to Pérez Art Museum Miami.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNotable design features include the narrow vertical format, asymmetrical photographic covers — the front a cropped street photograph of scattered domino tiles, the back a close-up of the same pile — and restrained sans-serif typography throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition: good.
