David Deutsch: Hurly-Burly Now Open: Venus Over Manhattan’s first solo exhibition by the New York-based artist David Deutsch, presented jointly with Eva Presenhuber. The collaborative show features 40 works across the two spaces, located at 39 Great Jones Street and 55 Great Jones Street respectively. Join us for the All-day opening in both venues today, January 11 th, from 11 am to 6 pm. David Deutsch makes abstract paintings. Or maybe he makes figurative paintings. Which is right? Neither? Both? There are still serious people out there who see abstraction and the image as irreconcilable. They could even be right—though I doubt it—but even if so, one of the remarkable things about art is its capacity to harbor irreconcilable propensities within a single object. That’s because, despite all appearances, art approaches truth; and we should remember the observation once made by the physicist Niels Bohr, that while the opposite of a trivial truth is false, the opposite of a profound truth is another truth. With that in mind, we hold that abstraction and images are two authentic paths to artistic truth. #DavidDeutsch, Untitled, 2022 Acrylic on linen 68 x 70 in / 172.7 x 177.8 cm #VenusOverManhattan @v_over_m #EvaPresenhuber #GalerieEvaPresenhuber
