The photography, video and performance works of artist Kelly Nipper proclaim the material proof that is inherent to photography and lens-based media at a time when most artists are determined to prove the falsities of the medium. Nipper explores the human relation to time, space and dimension, usually carried out through the choreographed acts of her subjects. The artist often works against normal photographic expectations, leaving her viewers void of the satisfaction that comes from the release of a climax or the capturing of a spectacle. Instead, Nipper engages her viewers with quiet, unassuming, though philosophically rich, images that investigate the empirical nuances of life. Nipper lives and works in Los Angeles and is an M.F.A. graduate of the California Institute of the Arts in Valencia, Calif. This year, the artist will present an exhibition with the Anna Helwing Gallery in Los Angeles. Previous exhibitions include “Bending Water into a Heart Shape” at the Galleria Francesca Kaufmann in Milan, Italy, and “shotgun and a figure 8″ at the Shoshana Wayne Gallery in Santa Monica, Calif., which was reviewed by Artforum (2001). The artist has performed at the Museum of Contemporary Art in California, PERFORMA07, and she has received the Alberta Prize for Visual Art from the Alberta duPont Bonsal Foundation.

Kelly Nipper is an artist who “uses choreography to shape [her] ideas about space and time and weather and emotions.” She works with videos, installations, and live performances to explore the moving human form through deliberate, ritualized gestures. Nipper often integrates detailed notation systems and vocal directives with choreography and repetitive movements. Weather Center is closely based on German Expressionist choreographer Mary Wigman’s solo Witch Dance, first performed by Wigman in Munich in 1914. Wearing a mask that obscures her face, the dancer in Nipper’s video enacts highly charged movements that resemble weather patterns, while a voice-over counts from one to ten.

Lecture at Warner on March 2nd, 7pm: "Q. Who is your work for? A. To keep me busy."
You could say Bob Nickas behaves more like an artist than a critic. Since moving to New York in 1984, he has developed a reputation for being a truly independent voice in his field, working against the prevailing narratives of contemporary art without compromise. Nickas has curated over 80 exhibitions and from 2003 and 2006 served as curatorial advisor for PS1. In 1994 he co-founded the highly influential, now-defunctIndex Magazine with artist Peter Halley.
As a writer, Nickas is known for his direct, jargon-free prose, that are accessible in their convictions. Many such interviews and reviews are collected in two books Live Free or Die (2000, Les Presses Du Reel) andTheft is Vision (2007, JRP Ringier). Nickas' latest book brings patent inclusiveness to one of the most equivocal genre's in art. Painting Abstraction: New Elements in Abstract Painting intimately profiles 80 abstract painters working today. Nickas writes an involved report of each artist's work and practice, creating a multifarious portrait of the phenomenon's practitioners at a time when painting has been declared dead several times over. Make no mistake: this is not the final word on abstract painting, nor a strategic list of names meant to collectively prove the existence of a historic "moment." Like everything Bob Nickas has done before, here he shares his independent take on specific artists doing work that he respects.
