Michael and Tim Maul's Unusual Pairing at Kerry Schuss Gallery Features Ballpoint Drawings and Cibachrome Photographs
Michael Maul showcases a series of ballpoint pen and colored pencil drawings on ledger paper at Kerry Schuss Gallery, each measuring 11 x 8.5 inches and featuring rows of nearly identical figures depicted in a diagrammatic style. Tim Maul adds to the exhibition with four Cibachrome photographs, each sized 20 x 24 inches, featuring books photographed in the 1990s and printed in 2000. These unique prints were made directly from 35-millimeter slides using a now-discontinued technique from 2013, renowned for its brilliant color and durability. The collection includes two images of books with blank pages, a third showing a book face down, and a fourth depicting a shelf filled with journals. This pairing creates a striking visual conversation between the detailed drawings and the vibrant photographic representations of printed works.
