CUE ON INSTAGRAM

Please join CUE on Saturday, October 5th at 5:00pm for a public walk-through of "Hyphen" with artist Natessa Amin and curator Ali Banisadr.

Amin creates a site-specific mixed-media installation that brings together painting, sculpture, and drawing to explore the artist’s experience of embodying a hybrid identity. Binding all of these materials together is a long undulating trail of hand-dyed newsprint that curves around the gallery’s walls, forming a textural structure within which individual objects become intertwined as part of a larger sculptural body. Amin and Banisadr will be available for questions after the walk-through.

CUE is pleased to share the second recipient of our annual art prize with Aon! This award recognizes one emerging or under-recognized artist annually with a generous honorarium and a year-long exhibition in Aon’s offices in downtown Manhattan.

The 2019 recipient of the Aon-CUE Artist Empowerment Award is visual artist Werner Sun, who is exhibiting a series of sculptural prints inspired by his background in physics and desire to methodically observe and record data in an exhibition titled "Closed Systems." The artist's process results in folded paper sculptures that, when photographed, serve as starting points for future work. Thus, one piece leads to another just as knowledge and ideas build on themselves.

Werner Sun is a visual artist who lives and works in Ithaca, NY. A particle physicist by training, Werner has exhibited his work at the Garrison Art Center, Manifest Gallery, the Islip Art Museum, the Schweinfurth Art Center, the Azarian McCullough Art Gallery, and the Memorial Art Gallery of the University of Rochester. His essays and images have been published in Stone Canoe, SciArt Magazine, and The Brooklyn Rail.

Natessa Amin installing her solo exhibition, “Hyphen,” curated by Ali Banisadr. Join us for the opening reception this Thursday, September 12, from 6-8pm!

Congratulations to CUE Mentor Ali Banisadr! Kasmin Gallery announced the US representation of Banisadr this week and the artist’s first solo exhibition at the gallery will open in early 2021.

Banisadr’s densely populated paintings are influenced by the artist’s perception of sound as inextricably linked to color and form. Drawing on childhood experiences of the Iran-Iraq war in his native Tehran (where explosions and other aural disturbances were commonplace) as well as his extant synesthesia, Banisadr works painstakingly and intuitively to build complex compositions that exude a vitality at once turbulent and celebratory.

Banisadr was a 2019 Open Call panelist and will serve as the curator-mentor for Natessa Amin's solo exhibition, "Hyphen," opening at CUE next week. Please join us for the opening reception on Thursday, September 12 from 6-8pm!
