Day Gleeson: Quality-of-Lifer

February 17 – March 20, 2011

---

La Mama Galleria is proud to present an exhibition and survey of Day Gleeson’s work, which directly adresses the formal and conceptual metamorphoses of the Lower East Side and East Village neighborhoods over the decades, where the artist lives and continues to work.  Gleeson is an artist who has worked collaboratively as well as on her own; her work has been shown in numerous museums and galleries over the years (including the New Museum’s “Fake” show, curated by W. Olander in 1987), and is included in such collections as MoMA’s.  Day Gleeson is also a distinguished professor at the Cooper Union School of Art.

“You are a New Yorker when what was there before is more real and solid than what is there now.”

“You start building your private New York the first time you lay eyes on it. ” -Colson Whitehead

“Quality-of-Lifer” will be up until March 20th.  Gallery hours are: Thursday- Sunday, 1-6pm.  A show catalogue will be available for sale after March 5th.  for further information, please visit the gallery or contact lamamagalleria@gmail.com
