If you are going to be visiting the Cologne area, I highly recommend two things: The Arp Museum in Remagen and Great Wall Restaurant (probably the best Chinese food in Cologne), Komödien Str. 37, 50667 Köln.

Open Space – Art Cologne 2008

SolwayJones will present a solo exhibition of sculpture, paintings and works on paper by Los Angeles artist Channa Horwitz at OPEN SPACE 2008.

This exhibition will feature two paintings from the Language Series that began in concept in 1964 (though not executed until 2005). The two works are comprised of multiple groups of paintings derived from a series of pictograms originally created by the artist to function as a language. With Language Series, the artist has created two-dimensional drawings and paintings that are controlled and composed as a deductive logic system, wherein the graph becomes a measure for several different opposing forces.
