David Zwirner is pleased to present press++, a new series of works by Thomas Ruff.

Working in distinct series since the late 1970s, Ruff has approached different genres of photography, including portraiture, architecture, astronomy, the nude, surveillance footage, reportage, and photograms. Using a wide range of technological approaches, and often pushing the limits of photographic representation in the process, he has reinvented historical conventions and expectations of the medium.

Shown here for the first time, press++ features large-scale photographs of archival media clippings from American newspapers that relate to the theme of space exploration. Ruff scanned the front and back of the original documents, which he has been collecting over several years, and combined the two sides in Adobe Photoshop. Interested equally in the subject matter (and any touch-ups) on the front of the paper and the words, stamps, signatures, and smudges on the back, he thus created seamless montages of image and text, in the process compromising the integrity of the former as well as adding relevant context.

“My paintings repeat a feeling about Lake Michigan, or water, or fields. It’s more like a poem…and that’s what I want to paint.” Today MOCA remembers the great abstract expressionist and feminist painter Joan Mitchell, who was born on this day in 1925. Mitchell deeply associated her paintings with poetry, using poems as inspiration prior to painting, and one can identify the poetic forms of her wild yet controlled artwork. Over 20 years later after her untimely passing (due to lung cancer), Joan Mitchell’s work is as acclaimed and respected as ever. Last year, David Zwirner gallery in New York, who represents Mitchell, showed Joan Mitchell: I carry my landscapes around with me, the first exhibition to focus on the artist’s multi-paneled paintings.
