V22 ASHWINSTREET Press Release - December 2007
V22 Ashwin Street is pleased to announce Jasper Joffe's =
Beauty Show, an exhibition which puts the ass back into aesthetics and =
pubic hair back into fashion.
Joffe loves old Vogues from the 70s and 80s. The models are =
less stick thin. These mags are full of beautiful pictures of beautiful =
women, who are now of course old and botoxed. Joffe looks in some =
vintage Homes and Garden magazines and sees an ad for a shower company =
which shows most of a naked lady, he is nostalgic for the early innocent =
years of masturbation. In the good old days you still sometimes saw =
untopiarized bushes.
The ugly side is Nazis. Look into their eyes. There is a =
something wrong with painting Hitler. Joffe once tried to make abstract =
paintings of Hitler in order to prove painting's romantic supremacy over =
subject matter. Now he paints him and his nasty friends as is. They =
represent MEN. The gawking, ogling, there's a lovely girl, guys like =
Joffe that like to look at ladies in their knickers.
Crush these ugly and beautiful subjects together in a =
painting show. You get Fashism. The queasy melding of images which =
leaves you looking at the whirls of beauty and ugliness without being =
sure which is which, or whose side you are on.
As an aesthetic experiment Joffe will be inviting ugly and =
beautiful people to the opening. One gallery will be populated by models =
and people who think they look like models. The other gallery will be =
peopled by ugly people or people who think they are ugly. He is =
interested whether the contents of the room will affect the reception of =
the paintings.
Jasper Joffe born 1975 is a painter, writer, and used to be =
quite good looking. Great successes include 24 paintings in 24 hours at =
the Chisenhale Gallery in 2000 and solo shows in London, Milan, Brno, =
and Rome (Spot the odd one out.) Major success includes his first novel =
Water being published by Telegram Books in 2006. Medium successes =
include his founding of The Free Art Fair and his paintings having been =
collected by Charles Saatchi.=20
Jasper Joffe is represented by Sartorial Contemporary Art
