Their Black Eyes Rolled Over White And The Oceans Turned Red

I was walking through Kim Foster Gallery a few weeks back to see David “Scout” McQueen’s mechanized art pieces there, and stopped short in front of his piece The Devil and the Deep Blue Sea, 2012, a kinetic re-presentation of the ocean’s surface. What I love about his pieces in general is the mix of intricately worked out mechanical logic, with hints of a slapdash, homespun way to achieve the effects he is looking for. His precision never overwhelms his warmth, and the poetry of each piece gently squelches the “gee-whiz” factor that is the danger of much mechanical art.
But what stopped me here was the placement of the pedal on the floor. There was something about the length of the cable, and the right angle with regard to the piece which struck me as the result of many repositionings in an effort to determine “if I put this pedal here, is it an invitation?” The somewhat exaggerated reaching out of the pedal from the piece is like a timid handshake, extended so graciously over space that the artist is even willing to put at risk our further approach to the piece. He’s saying “touch me before you look; give me a whirl before you inspect, act first,” with a slightly shy bend of the pedal at the end.
A small gesture like this can linger in an of itself. Like the small gestures of a courtship in early moments, they can become the throughline of everything that follows, even eventually embracing the whole story, encapsulating all within the exact angles of inclination of that first “hello?” As if that first meeting contained all that followed, like the universe(s) following from an initial anomaly.
ps. David also has a show up at Wayfarers Gallery, Bushwick, closing this Friday, Feb 15th, 2013.
come by tonight for the close of jillian’s show! live performance at 7:30.

“The world breaks everyone and afterward many are strong in the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry.”
