d berman gallery is delighted
to present Exchange, an exhibition featuring Catherine
Lee and Bodo Korsig, two longtime friends showing
together for the first time.
Catherine Lee was born in Pampa, Texas, and now lives
and works in Wimberley and New York. She has shown
her work in galleries and museums throughout the world,
most recently in New York City, San Antonio, Dublin,
Köln, Copenhagen, Toulon, and St. Etienne. Her
sculptural work is now on permanent display in the
atrium of the new Blanton Museum in Austin. Nancy
Princenthal, in her Irish Museum of Modern Art catalogue
essay, describes the central quality of Lee’s work
as an ability to dissolve the distinction between
the animate and the inanimate. “From her most intimate
table-top ceramic objects to the large free-standing
bronze sculptures, Lee’s work is endowed with a presence
that is simultaneously geological and human.”
Bodo Korsig primarily lives and works in Trier, Germany
and New York and has exhibited extensively internationally.
He has recently exhibited in Hamburg, New York, Dresden,
Los Angeles, Prague, Copenhagen, Barcelona, and Xiamen.
“Bodo Korsig’s work is both funny and serious. He
plays with the subconscious, the familiar, the mundane,
and the minuscule. He gets you though, hitting you
head on with the periphery, turning things around,
stretching, reorienting. His art can be painting,
print, or sculpture. Everything is hung on the walls,
some coming out a bit from the wall, such as his painted
aluminum works. Even the paintings, despite their
diminutive sizes, are made on very thick stretchers
so they jut out into the space.” - D. Dominick Lombardi
