Quint Contemporary Art is very pleased to exhibit new drawings by Manny Farber. The exhibition opens on May 2nd, 2008 with a public reception from 6-8 p.m. and closes on June 14th. Manny Farber, who has been painting for over 50 years, began exhibiting at Quint Contemporary Art in 1985. This will be his sixteenth solo show at the gallery. Comprised of approximately 70 drawings the exhibition will feature works completed over the last year by the 91 year-old artist. The drawings, which are vibrantly colored, expressionistic views of his garden will be hung salon style, pinned to the wall as they are in Manny’s studio.

Quint Contemporary Art is pleased to present work by four artists from Iceland. The work brings together some of the finest aspects of Iceland’s cultural heritage, in particular it’s literary and linguistic trademark. The style used by these artists is concise, clear and direct. Only the essentials have been retained. The exhibition opens with a reception on March 21st and runs through April 26, 2008.

The mid-century preoccupation with poetry and storytelling forms an important background to the development of Icelandic conceptual art—characterized as “poetic-conceptualism” within Iceland’s arts community this provides an opportunity to consider the ways in which Icelandic artists make use of Icelandic literary traditions within the context of post-conceptual practices.
