RYAN MCNAMARA at ELIZABETH DEE, New York
On the surface, Ryan McNamara’s latest exhibitions looks like a bizarre collaboration between Jim Shaw and Ryan Trecartin with floating heads and hyper-expressive characters. McNamara deftly presents his chaotic vision through a mixed media installation which serves as an ongoing performance within the gallery. For the initial weeks of the show, McNamara interacted with visitors and used this fluid collaboration to cull material and images. Still is on view through April 7th 2012 at Elizabeth Dee, 545 West 20th Street, New York. Photo and text Juliana Balestin
