Please Pardon Our Appearance
Opening Reception: Friday, October 3, 2014 / 7-10pm
Exhibition Dates: October 3 – October 29, 2014
Space 1026 is pleased to announce our upcoming exhibition, Please Pardon Our Appearance, by Jacob Lunderby. This exhibition opens Friday, Oct. 3, 2014 with a reception from 7-10 pm. For this exhibition, Lunderby depicts images of windows that have been digitally modified and layered over enamel paint on wood panel. While the production of work includes the use of digital resources and printing, the artist’s objective is to see the work in a context of painting.
The paintings of windows originate from one of two gestures: blocking out to prevent observation into an interior space, or covering a break to arrest fracturing of the window surface. As with the vernacular of painting, the images of windows shift between presentation of depth, surface tension and reflectiveness. The marginal materials used as devices to control vision and the sense of precarious formalism found in this meshwork of image and pattern provides a generative model to engage layers of attention, materiality and durations of time, from the context of a restaged image to the life span of a painting.
Through the process of using images that gesture towards methods of concealment, containment and protection, Lunderby uses painting to engage the potential to contain, disrupt or direct vision, and address the image/painting object in its complex relationship to time and context.

Endless Day at LGTripp Gallery
Just 8 blocks away from Space 1026 in Old City, Miriam Singer is showing all of her new drawings on the white walls of LGTripp Gallery this month ! Go see it, it will blow your mind
Artist Reception is on Saturday, September 6, from 5-7pm.
show runs from September 5-October 11
47 N 2nd St Philadelphia, PA
Gallery Hours: Wednesday, 12-5 pm, Thursday-Saturday 11-6pm
Endless Day features drawings (2012 -2014) that look perceptually at multiple locations in Philadelphia and are then worked through memory, eventually becoming a fictional cityscape created with a playful approach. Singer describes noise and time through a stacking of shapes, color, and repetitive patterns. Squares provide the basic measurement of this imagined urban landscape in which a finished and unfinished moment in time coexist on the same field.
