    • Gallery Rounds: Heavily BK

    By Paul D'Agostino

    There was a point earlier this month when I realized I&#;d seen 82 new gallery shows in ten days. I know, what a slacker!

    Anyway, seeing all of those and a handful more since then has prompted me to do another Gallery Rounds post. My previous one, which includes photos of shows and works in a couple dozen galleries in various parts of town, is here.

    This one features another dozen or so shows, and it&#;s significantly more specific to Brooklyn—from season-openers to pop-ups in Bushwick and Ridgewood, to a consummately and collaboratively creative makeover of a partially dilapidated house in Crown Heights.

    Oh, and guess what will round out the annual art surge of September for the first time ever? Bushwick Open Studios, which kicks off at the end of this week. More details about that and everything else below.

    Take notes. Go see stuff. Enjoy.

    Two new solo shows opened in the multiple exhibition spaces at Art 3 Gallery. Above, top register, glimpses of works by Juliette Dumas. Below, lower register, paintings by Tara Kopp. I wrote a few observations about the shows here.

    Secret Dungeon is a new gallery of sorts located deep in the guts of the long-vacant tunnels once used to smuggle moonshine from Brooklyn to Queens. Okay, I&#;m lying, but it is tucked inside a storage unit within a parking garage beneath some lofts in Morgantown. So, same thing. Anyway, check it out during Bushwick Open Studios. The space and the interactive poetry installation there are Caddyshack-tastic.

    A look around at the recent openings in the Willoughby building. Here, TSA, Transmitter and Underdonk.

    The artist

    Born in in Santiago, Iván Navarro grew up under the Pinochet dictatorship. He has lived and worked in New York since Iván Navarro uses light as his raw material, turning objects into electric sculptures and transforming the exhibition space by means of visual interplay. His work is certainly playful, but is also haunted by questions of power, control and imprisonment. The act of usurping the minimalist aesthetic is an ever-present undercurrent, becoming the pretext for understated political and social criticism.
