RH Gallery is pleased to present The Third Meaning II featuring artists Soledad Arias, Paul Edmunds, Wolfgang Ellenrieder, Daniel Escobar, Shao Fan, Fredrik Färg, Parastou Forouhar, Atsushi Fukui, Micah Ganske, Dante Horoiwa, Hideaki Kawashima, Ken Nicol, John O'Reilly, Young Sook Park, Kirstine Roepstorff, Katrina Vonnegut and Yi Zhou.

The works contain a third order of meaning, beyond the obvious and the symbolic. The term "The third meaning" is a representation without a direct, material source - a "signifier without a signified."

Ugly Duckling Presse features 2 special-edition letterpress broadsides: a letterpress rebus poster from Gabriel Pomerand's seminal Lettrist publication Saint Ghetto des Prêts and a broadside derived from Austrian poet Ernst Herbeck's chapbook. The exhibition also features books, broadsides, and ephemera spanning the 10-year history of the Brooklyn-based nonprofit presse.

RH Gallery is pleased to present Hunting and Gathering, a two-person exhibition featuring the work of New York-based Korean artist Myeongsoo Kim and Munich-based artist Wolfgang Ellenrieder.

The title of the exhibition reflects the process ingrained in the practice of both artists.

RH Gallery is pleased to present The Savage Detectives, a group
exhibition curated by artist Tyler Healy featuring the work of six New York-based artists: Jack Greer, Tyler Healy,
Dean Levin, Sandy Kim, Evan Robarts and Peter Sutherland.

The title of the exhibition is borrowed from a book by Roberto Bolaño of the same name which tells the story of interconnected, ambitious writers who thrive on a utopian kind of madness.

The opening reception is on September 18th, 6-8pm and the exhibition will be on view through October 24th.

Ugly Duckling Presse presents a reading with Marisol Limon Martinez and James Hoff. The event will take place on August 22, from 6-9pm.

Parastou Forouhar is included in the group exhibition Art and Social Activism curated by Nicholas Cohn Art Projects at chashama in Long Island City.

The group exhibition features "an international roster of artists working in a range of media, from painting and sculpture to video and performance, connected by their focus on social issues of national and global concern."

The exhibition is on view through August 25th, 2012.

Micah Ganske created a short film documenting the process of his recent painting, "Tomorrowland: Centralia".

ArtNexus Magazine reviewed Soledad Arias' recent exhibition Notations: The Cage Effect Today.

Graciela Kartofel writes, "This exhibition, Notations: The Cage Effect Today, brings together a number of contemporary artists who, without necessarily being Cagean, touch at least tangentially upon several of Cage's ideas. Cage crossed borders, and continues to motivate others to do so."

On-Verge reviewed Soledad Arias' recent exhibition ON AIR at RH Gallery.

Taney Roniger writes, "ON AIR is not an exhibition that seeks to illustrate or even explore an idea; it is first and foremost a body of work that is, in its very material embodiment, a profound expression of the richness, depth, and complexity of human experience. "

The Villager featured our current exhibition The Third Meaning II, on view through September 7th, 2012.

"Coined by French literary critic and all-around deep thinker Roland Barthes as a term to represent that which exists without a direct, material source, the 17 artists who’ve contributed work to this exhibition seek to reveal 'a third order of meaning, beyond the obvious and the symbolic.'"
