McDermott & McGough at The Andy Warhol Museum
As part of the continuing celebration of the 250th Birthday of the City of Pittsburgh, The Andy Warhol Museum will mount an exhibition titled 1958 which will chronicle the events of that year when Pittsburgh last celebrated a momentous anniversary. The exhibition will be a pop cultural exploration of the trends, both high and low, which mapped out the aspirations and antics of this prime year of the U.S. Baby Boom.
Juxtaposing advertizing campaigns from the local billboard company, Lamar Advertizing, with the products and product spiel-meisters of the burgeoning television era like the Popiel Brothers alongside classic movie posters, and memorabilia from the infamous Ford Edsel fiasco, the exhibition will give new insight to the era that was so brilliantly portrayed in the period book, The Man in the Grey Flannel Suit and is now being revived in the current TV series Mad Men. Some never-before-seen works by Andy Warhol from this period will be displayed as well.
All of the above will be juxtaposed with a brand new portfolio of photographs by the artist-duo McDermott and McGough entitled Detroit 1958 which evokes the coming-of-age, dreamy vignettes of the car capital’s upper class teens.
This exhibition has been curated by The Warhol’s Director, Tom Sokolowski. Accompanying the exhibition will be a series of films, readings, and lectures.
1958 is on view from October 4, 2008 – January 11, 2009

Kim McCarty at The Shore Institute of Contemporary Arts
Children have been a favorite subject of artists since prehistoric times. There seems to be an intuitively attraction to a child’s simplicity and purity – that clean tabula rosa – the embodiment of wholesomeness and goodness. But what happened to that sweet, beautiful child at the restaurant table next to you that cause it to transform into the possessed screaming brat you see before you now? The artistic views in this show may be different, they may be unnerving - some might be a bit twisted, and some are just downright weird. But all are investigations of Those Strange Children.
Those Strange Children is on view from September 5 to October 10, 2008

Florian Süssmayr opens at kestnergesellschaft
The kestnergesellschaft presents the exhibition back to black, a unique diversity of works to analyze the significance of black in contemporary painting. It was only at the beginning of the twentieth century that black was again accepted as something real and substantial. As late as the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, it did not exist from an academic perspective and was even looked down upon. The painterly issues pursued by such artists as Velázquez, Rembrandt and Frans Hals were simply ignored.
The exhibit is on view from May 30, 2008 to August 10, 2008
