christinawilson.net - Jonathan Pylypchuk - You are the only one left
Gallery Christina Wilson is pleased to show the first exhibition by Jon Pylypchuk (CAN) in Denmark.
At the exhibition You are the only one left, Pylypchuk shows a number of new sculptures, paintings and collages. Pylypchuk’s world is populated by figures who are by the artist described as pathetic characters – all of them types with whom you can only sympathise. They are animal-like characters with an either active or passive attitude towards the world Pylypchuk has chosen for them; some are climbing a mountain, others are boxing with a winged cloud. Another character is being peed on or beaten about the head by a cloud with a long penis.

Jon Pylypchuk, a.k.a. Rudy Bust, a Canadian-born artist now living in Los Angeles, built the supports for more than 25 mixed-medium "paintings" presented in this crowded exhibition by screwing rough-edged pieces of scrap plywood onto panels. The grain of the plywood subsequently functions as landscape components, rickety waterfront piers, cramped interiors or even stick figures.

Jon Pylypchuk's sense of humor is pitch black, and won't tickle everyone's funnybone. But its provocations aim wide. A Canadian-born, UCLA-educated, ex-Royal Art Lodge member previously known (sometimes) as Rudy Bust, Pylypchuk has a much funkier sensibility than the Lodge's best known graduate, Marcel Dzama, and also a less babe-in-the-woods sense of menace. "I have thought deep into this trouble," the title of this exhibition and of one of the works in it (all 2005), is among the more family-friendly of the phrases that are lettered in minuscule script on collages and paintings alike.

Jonathan Pylypchuk's paintings, sculptures and installations tackle issues of emotional terrain, fears, loss and rejection through a humorous and sincere sensibility. His preferred media are non-traditional and consist of crude materials such as scrap wood and pieces of fabric (velvet, t-shirts, socks and fake fur) along with glitter and ample amounts of wood glue.

Locust Projects is please to present new work by L.A.-based artist Jonathan Pylypchuk. Pylypchuk knows something of the curse of perspicacity that has befallen us. He knows how sad it is to try to fall in love in a world where you see through
everything, all the time. This is the sort of sadness that tempers his otherwise joyfully scrappy cut-and-paste paintings and objects.
