David Kordansky Gallery is pleased to present Both Ends Burning, an exhibition of new work by Amy Bessone, Thomas Houseago, Matthew Monahan and Lara Schnitger.The opening reception will be on Friday, October 14th and the exhibition will be on view through November 12th. The four artists first met in 1994 while completing their residencies at De Ateliers, Amsterdam, Netherlands. Their meeting proved to be a profound experience that cemented the professional and personal friendships within the group.
After living and working in various countries after their time in Amsterdam, the four are once again in the same location, Los Angeles. Both Ends Burning is the first exhibition of all the artists together. Bessone, Houseago, Monahan and Schnitger are dedicated to exploring and challenging notions of the figure. Finding a lack of rigor in current trends regarding figuration they look to face their practices without ironic distractions.
Together they have decided to take a no-holds-barred approach to their work and find territories not before explored. Each artist confronts figuration from different angles and with various techniques. In this exhibition they continue this dialogue and the intertwining narratives between their work.

Dick Evans was born in Roswell, New Mexico and received his BFA -1964 and MFA - 1966 from the University of Utah. He presently resides in Santa Fe.when I am painting. Then sometime later I might see something in the landscape that will make me exclaim, ?Oh yes, I painted that last year in such and such a painting, something like this must have inspired that work.? I seldom have a particular reaction that I am hoping for in a viewer. Rather, I would like for the viewer to experience an increased awareness or way of seeing, perhaps it could be called visual vocabulary, through seeing my work. Hopefully that increase will lead to heightened emotional and intellectual richness for the viewer. These goals apply to me as well as others, for I probably learn more through experiencing my paintings than does any other viewer.
Dick Evans Selected works in 2006 are Black Grape - silicon carbide, paint, artex, polystyrene,can, cigarette butts. Hoodie - hydroponics, wax, aluminium, steel.Ultimately my paintings are simply explorations, interpretations and expressions of the world around me and within me.The entire painting evolves in that manner, in a series of reactions to the previous collection of actions. Throughout that process the visual and emotional elements that I have collected during my lifetime of observation, as well as, I suspect, elements that are in the genetic evolution of the human species, all play a part in determining each new step.
