http://www.forumgallery.com/current_o... • July 1, 2008, New York - New Acquisitions, (July 10 through August 22, 2008) will showcase thirty works new to the gallery in the last year, and will include large and small-scale paintings, dramatic sculpture and important drawings by Forum Gallery roster artists and twentieth century and contemporary masters. • • This video features works by Steven Assael, Paul Fenniak, Linden Frederick, Edward Hopper, Michael Leonard, Alan Magee, Odd Nerdrum, Larry Rivers, Max Weber, Tom Wesselmann, and Francisco Zúñiga. • • • Concurrently, running from July 10 through September 6, 2008 Forum Gallery will offer the rare opportunity to see a separate exhibition of eleven of renowned Paris-based artist Charles Matton's box constructions, each an exquisitely detailed miniature recreation of a real or imagined location. Matton has said of his works: I create two kinds of boxes: those whose purpose is to recreate an atmosphere that has delighted me, a memory whose existence I wish to perpetuate; and the more objective pieces that are the result of a detailed examination of the realistic truth of a certain place. Painstakingly crafted from wood, mirrors, moving pictures and wallpaper, depictions of the studios of a Classical Sculptor, of libraries and of a pianist performing Debussy will be on view alongside Matton's Hommages to James Joyce, Edward Hopper, and Lucian Freud.
