Cary Leibowitz ("Candy Ass")

Since his emergence in the 1990s (when he went by the moniker “Candy Ass”), Cary Leibowitz has styled himself as a self-loathing, reluctant artist. Through this cleverly crafted persona, he critiques the pretentiousness of the art world and the commodification of art. He also foregrounds his gay and Jewish identity, exploring how it places him outside of mainstream American society. His work—which encompasses prints, paintings, sculpture, and installation—is full of humor and pathos. He often incorporates such everyday items as mugs and knitted caps into his pieces, altering them with pointed text and arranging them into unlikely forms. In Stop Copying Me (2001), for example, he presented a row of identical paintings, each one reading, “Stop copying me,”

Wilde is delighted to present HAPPY CHRISTMAS, a solo exhibition featuring new and past works by Marina Abramović. The artist will share her views on mortality and the physical and mental limits of the human body through a selection of photographs, installations and videos.

Happy Christmas borrows its name from a photograph that powerfully depicts Abramović with tears flowing down her face. Taken during the holiday season and far from happy, the work is deeply personal, and a testament to Abramović's ability to mentally conjure up an emotion then physically manifest it. She transforms the power of performance art, which is bound by time and place, to material objects that become vessels transporting the energy of the performer and that of the audience.

I've always been interested in how art comes. To me, art comes as a vision. It comes as a tridimensional appearance out of nowhere. I had a very interesting discussion once with a scientist asking how scientists discover new things. It’s a similar system. You can work in a laboratory for hours, days, years and not find that specific formula that makes a difference to change the world or that gets a Nobel Prize. Then you're so tired and you close the lab and say that’s enough for today, or take the train like Einstein did, and then the Relativity Theory quickly comes [to them], out of nowhere. It’s very similar to how an artist works. So many times, I've talked to painters and they talk about painting a picture, for example. They paint a lot and it gets worse and worse. Sometimes they spend months working. Finally they throw it away, it’s trash. They take a fresh new canvas and finally it’s just there. That means that it's not a waste, the time you spend on research. It doesn’t mean, though, that the results will come out from that time when you're putting all your efforts. The result, or the solution, comes as a surprise. It can be anywhere. It can be on your way to the bathroom, or while cooking dinner, in your sleep, or when waking up. That’s the beauty about really inventive things: they come as a surprise. But you have to be ready to receive, ready to recognize them. But they’re also a result of lots of thinking. Sometimes you do a lot, and you know you can’t do any more. It’s just a matter of letting it go. Then you go relax and then something comes out of nowhere. That's the beauty of inspiration and invention, that’s how the best art happens. There's a characteristic of any great art: it can be dance, painting, sculpture, performance, whatever. It should look effortless. You shouldn't be able to see the enormous work behind it. That’s the key to simplicity. And then people will say ‘Oh! but I can do that.’ Yes, but you didn’t.
