Richard Rezac's 'Pleat' exhibition at Luhring Augustine Tribeca explores object-image entwining in sculptural reliefs.

Richard Rezac's exhibition titled 'Pleat' is on display at Luhring Augustine Tribeca until August 6, 2021, showcasing five pieces chosen from his 2020 presentation. His first show at Luhring Augustine's Chelsea venue commenced on March 14, 2020, but galleries were forced to close the following day due to pandemic measures, allowing visits only by appointment. Marjorie Welish provided a review of the original exhibition, while Graham Bader penned a catalogue essay that explores Rezac's art through the interplay of object and image. Notable sculptures include Soliloquy (2019), Untitled (19-05) (2019), and the hanging piece Chigi, Pamphili (2019). Rezac's relief works, like the cast bronze Untitled (18-06) (2018), blend painting and sculpture, emphasizing scale and viewer engagement, and his ornamentation, such as in Untitled (19-11) (2019), reflects historical aesthetic theories, linking to Donald Judd and Surrealist ideas.
