Contemporary Abelow Daily

I thought it would be funny to make some drawings that reference the website, but rather than writing "Art" I decided to write "Abelow" in its place. These drawings are self-portraits. I just read a book called In the Flow by Boris Groys and there's a quote I like that I think also relates to the drawings: "Our contemporary age seems to be different from all the other historically known ages in at least one respect: Never before has humanity been so interested in its own contemporaneity. The Middle Ages were interested in eternity, the Renaissance was interested in the past, modernity was interested in the future. Our epoch is interested primarily in itself."

Joshua Abelow was born in Frederick, Maryland in 1976. He currently has a solo exhibition of "Disconnected Paintings" at Et al. (San Francisco). He lives and works in Harris, NY and New York, NY. Additionally, Abelow runs Freddy, a curatorial program, out of an old church in Harris, NY.
