DOUG McCLEMONT’S TOP TEN NEW YORK SHOWS-JANUARY By Doug McClemont · January 19, 2012




The Displaced Person at Invisible-Exports
Quickly becoming one of the coolest galleries in New York, Invisible Exports under the passionate direction of Risa Needleman and Benjamin Tischer, presents another winning group exhibition. Black and white drawings by Sue Williams, Queen of the Droopy Body Part, hang near Walt Cassidy’s handsome and haunting photo based works. Cassidy’s elegant touch coupled with his mystical reverence for romanticized locations—a transsexual beach, gay cruising locales—send us off in search of lost time. Works by Jesse Aron Green and Geof Oppenheimer are every bit as compelling. At the crowded opening, guests rubbed up against performance pioneer Ron Athey’s human hair towels, which were hung low to the ground, teased and tantalizing. Hopefully, this show marks Athey’s (overdue) return to New York’s gallery scene.
