Curated by Amada

In addition to the convivial group shows (“Three Day Weekends”) he organizes, gregarious Los Angeles–based artist Dave Muller makes smart, colorful drawings that recontextualize and often wryly reinterpret posters and announcements for other artists’ exhibitions. This survey, organized by Bard CCS Museum director Amada Cruz (who, with CCAC Wattis Institute for Contemporary Art curator Matthew Higgs, contributes to the catalogue), focuses on the drawings, which lends the exhibition a collegial feel. In addition, the artist is offering visitors a taste of Muller-style sociability when he hosts a local Three Day Weekend comprising friends and colleagues from New York and LA as well as Bard grad students.
