ROCKLAND, ME.- The Center for Maine Contemporary Art announced the upcoming exhibition i forgot to remember, featuring the work of Katarina Weslien. Drawing on a four-decades-long multi-disciplinary practice, artist Katarina Weslien has created a large-scale and expansive exhibition for the Main Gallery at CMCA. i forgot to remember is immersive and experiential, reflecting the artist’s “deep, on-going interest in the tactile and metaphoric power of cloth; how mute objects speak; and how objects elicit memories, emotions, and embodied imaginations in the face of impermanence, disorder, and displacement,” in the words of Suzanne Weaver, a Maine-based independent curator and former museum curator of modern and contemporary art. i forgot to remember opens on September 28, 2024, and runs through May 4, 2025.

NEW YORK, NY.- The attic, long a repository of discarded toys and the like, can sometimes turn up treasures. Late last month, a painting that an auctioneer in Maine discovered and believed to be a work by 17th-century Dutch painter Rembrandt van Rijn was sold at auction for $1.4 million. The artwork had apparently been stored in the attic of a farmhouse in Camden, Maine, for decades.

NEW YORK, NY.- Sikkema Jenkins & Co. is presenting Sunset Palace, a solo exhibition of recent work by Erin Shirreff on view from September 6 through October 19, 2024. The exhibition is dominated by Dusk Form, a new large-scale sculpture first exhibited in Shirreff’s recent solo exhibition at SITE Santa Fe. Approached from one angle, the form appears dimensional, imposing, only to flatten into a series of abrupt planes, deep cuts, and line as one walks to the side and rear. The sculpture has a monolithic presence that references familiar sculptural language from the mid-twentieth century, but the fragmentary nature of this sequence of views points to its origin in a half-remembered image glimpsed online. In Dusk Form, Shirreff reconstitutes a hazy impression with massive, conjoined planes of patinated and polished aluminum that exude heft and mass. Named for the time of day rife with perceptual ambiguities, Dusk Form plays with our sense of scale; viewed from afar it can recall a simple construction of folded paper.
