ICA’s new shows–Tyng, videos, Boyle & Duke

The search for a single unifying principle–a mathematical formula, or the atom, or God–is the sort of romantic obsession that underlies the Institute of Contemporary Art exhibit Anne Tyng: Inhabiting Geometry.

Frenz at Fleisher-Ollman

The standout piece at Fleisher/Ollman‘s Frenz exhibit is more than a standout. It’s outta heeeere. The exhibit includes work by 11 artists selected by singer-songwriter Will Oldham, aka Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy. The work in the show is a suprising mix of homey and slick, the result of what I imagine is one guy’s personal taste mixed with loyalty to his posse of frenz. But after seeing Lori Damiano’s video animation, Lord I: The Records Keeper, 2003-2009, I think I want to be frenz with her, even though she lives on the West Coast.
