A
survey of works created at the Los Angeles-based artists'
workshop, Gemini G.E.L., first solely by Edward
Kienholz and then later in collaboration with his
wife, Nancy Reddin Kienholz, will be on view at Gemini
G.E.L. at Joni Moisant Weyl from February 7th through
March 30th, 1996.
The exhibition begins with Edward Kienholz's The
Marriage Icon (1972). Through the use of reproduced
postcard images collected by Kienhol, the timeline of
old-fashioned romance is depicted, from courtship to
marriage and family. Placed in an antique wooden frame
and dripping with resin, these images explore sexuality
and human relationships, questioning personal and societal
ideals.
