Library Street Collective Presents JORDAN NICKEL (POSE) LA, by kwatis on Aug 19, 2016 16:57:10 GMT 1, us6.campaign-archive2.com/?u=077e2ada89c393266c1ba35ba&id=7c27929b07&e=7cfae63b43
(Los Angeles, CA) -- Detroit-based contemporary art gallery Library Street Collective (LSC) announces their first Los Angeles residency in Mid City (5428 W. Washington Blvd.) from September 2016 until early in the New Year. The lineup of exhibition programming is set to present some of the gallery's finest alongside a number of new artists, as they continue to push boundaries and expand upon their curatorial vision.
Inaugurating LSC's Los Angeles space on Saturday, September 17th is a solo exhibition of new works by Jordan Nickel (POSE) - aptly titled FRANKLY - a collection of evolutionary works that will recontextualize the provenance of the artist's Pop Art influences. Dramatic and immediate, his 16 paintings on paper demonstrate the risks and rewards of a body of work completely stripped down by one of LSC's favorite collagists.
Nickel began his training as an artist in Chicago in the early 90s, when as a teenager he gravitated towards the rebellion of sneaking out of his parentsโ home to spend late nights painting in the streets. His determination to create on such a large scale kept him working tirelessly, and taught him tremendous patience; it wasnโt long before he realized that making art was all he ever wanted to do. Since then, Nickelโs message has evolved from tagging to a colorful fusion of 2-dimensional imagery that pulls from Pop Art, comics, advertising and typography, with a focus on revealing the intimate possibilities in traditionally superficial avenues of communication. Nickel layers and dissects his sources in a style all his own to present an aggregated story- a recipe where Betty and Veronica, Captain America and the Merrie Melodies are chopped and tossed to perfection.
Nickelโs new collection of works for FRANKLY offers a radical departure from what followers have come to expect from him, and the result is intriguing - mature, poised, and candid; undeniably, the product of an artist coming of age. On the surface, references that reveal his passion for the history of Pop Art are evident, while more obscure nods to Americana and cult classics (โWestern Picture Storiesโ, anyone?) are at the core of his visual progression. Formally, Nickelโs dissection and interference of the sources he subverts are increasingly subtle, making these techniques stronger than ever.
The cowboy has been a prevalent figure in Pop Art since its origins, and has come to signify the masculinity, independence and patriotism of America's romanticized golden age. Upon deeper investigation Nickel reveals his attachment to a text on C. Wright Mills (the Postmodern Cowboy), a midcentury sociologist who viewed the existence of the lone wolf as symbolic of depoliticization in America. It was in the mid 50s that Mills warned, "we are now in a situation in which many who are disengaged from prevailing allegiances have not acquired new ones, and so are distracted from and inattentive to political concerns of any kind. They are strangers to politics. They are not radical, not liberal, not conservative, not reactionary; they are inactionary; they are out of it". Within this body of work, Nickel challenges our notions of the cowboy as hero or renegade; chivalrous or lawless; patriotic or isolated, and in doing so reflects the contradictions inherent in democracy. What better time than now to pose such a question?
FRANKLY reads like a story that the artist has been dying to tell, and the decision to create the works on paper only aids in the desire to turn the pages. A large-scale painting, Sunshine and its Shadow, becomes sculpture when placed on crates for support and continues along Nickelโs penchant for 2D extension to the 3D realm. The exhibitionโs final work, Untitled (Reaction #12), hangs from the wall and cascades to the floor where it sits, rolled at its end, suggesting hidden cells of narrative and the artistโs desire to scrutinize the possibilities of a new material. Frankly, whatโs presented is a powerfully different point of view; because if you think you know Pose, think again.
Jordan Nickel (POSE): FRANKLY will be held at 5428 W. Washington Blvd in Los Angeles, within the Castelli Arts complex. The exhibition will take place from September 17 through October 11, 2016, with an Artistsโ Reception held on Saturday, September 17 from 7-9 PM. Contact info@lscgallery.com for an exhibition catalog or additional information.

JORDAN NICKEL (POSE) Named โOne to Watchโ by CNN in 2015 as part of their international television series that shines a light on up-and-coming creative talent set to be the next big names in culture, modern pop artist Jordan Nickel (POSE) has been applauded for his inventive ability to take everyday, throw-away things and introduce them into the world to communicate something much deeper. While his work relies on harnessing very simple human emotions like love, loss and triumph, itโs presented in a complex union of vivid colors and layered application that aims for something much more profound than whatโs at the literal, surface level. Having shown works at galleries spanning the globe โ including Dubai, London, New York, Detroit and Los Angeles โ his diversity as a visual artist is also apparent in grandiose outdoor settings on six different continents. His aim to promote community engagement and outreach has received press from the likes of The New York Times, BBC News, Vanity Fair and Forbes โ with notable examples including the Bowery/Houston wall in New York City, the Wynwood walls in Miami, and the exterior of the Museum of Contemporary Art in Detroit, where he and other artists championed visual expression to empower residents to beautify a neglected American city. โMy artwork is pretty cut and dried,โ POSE says. โIโm taking from the world around me โ whether it be bits of signs or my wifeโs old childhood books.โ His attempt at making sense of the environment around him started with graffiti and has matured into a body of work with multiple dimensions and layers that are a pop blend of illustration, lettering and comic book aesthetics.

Figured others would wanna know. Plus the new body of work is different (in a good way) from what we've seen from him. Super mature work from an artist whose work is incredible and LSC whose curated fanominal shows the past couple of years (IMO).

Jay-Z/Sean Carter, Eminem/Marshall Mathers...

Possibly. The new work is more conceptual in my opinion and more stripped down. Definitely different from the work that we've seen, but still incredible.

Looks to me like he his still finding his groove with the new style. I look forward to seeing how it evolves over time. The pricing wasn't too bad either considering they are originals.

Are your 4 favorites part of the exhibition? I didn't see them in the LA pdf and I recognize a couple of them from LSC's summer group show.

i personally like his old stuff, but am much more attracted to his new work and upcoming show. New showa work seems much more mature to me, but still love all of the previous work. Just different and more appealing to myself.

Library Street Collective Presents JORDAN NICKEL (POSE) LA, by Reptile 072 on Sept 12, 2016 0:25:01 GMT 1, Like others have said already, this is a pretty exciting direction - seems very clean and mature. Sure, I like his old style as well, but there's only so much of that you can enjoy before it starts getting repetitive.
Like all interesting artists, it's great to see that Jordan is not afraid to evolve. I look forward to checking out the pieces in person soon. I think people will look back at this show as the one where POSE took it to the next level.
