  • The Petrified Forest
    Glen Rubsamen
    61 photos of Los Angeles taken in 2023, depicting a metamorphosis of urban phenomena.

  • Looking Backward
    GLEN RUBSAMEN
    I have always believed in the power of geography. The same idea, executed in two differentplaces in the world will deliver completely different results. Moreover these geographicalplaces carry with them an added wealth of context. I admire artists who made works in exotic places. In the 90’s I traveled and painted in a multitude of locations, in rented apartments, hotels and in...

  • Visible From Space
    Enzokuhle Phiri / Glen Rubsamen
    In this book Phiri’s text and Rubsamen’s paintings explore the visual and biological affects of ’Light Trespass’. Looking at the Earth from low orbit, they ask, what is visible from space?

  • Afterlife
    Glen Rubsamen
    In a city full of recently embalmed architecture, few buildings look as un-dead as the corner shopping Plaza. Take the one at the corner of Sunset Boulevard and North Fuller Avenue in Hollywood, California. A squat rectangle of stucco and drywall, it offers everything we’ve come to expect in a corner ’convenience center’: a pizza parlor, a doughnut shop, a cell phone store, a m...

  • Subvertising the Military Industrial Media Complex
    GLEN RUBSAMEN

In Glen Rubsamen’s War Series this détournement is directed against an increasingly intrusive and instrumentalizing technocratic culture whose function is the manufacture of consent throug...

  • Environmental Catastrophes Top Ten And Other Abominations
    GLEN RUBSAMEN / Zolzaya Skarli
    In his series of paintings ’Environmental Catastrophes Top Ten And Other Abominations’ Rubsamen pokes fun at our need to make lists and hierarchies to codify the bad and the good. If we Google ’Worst man-made environmental disasters in history’ the screen fills with sites offering lists. If we toggle the images button on the top of the page, the lists become images. Finding a c...
