The Sensible Range
10.20 — 12.07.13

Nathaniel Robinson’s recent sculptures and installations make approaches to the complexity, variety, constraints, and freedoms within The Sensible Range, or the field of contact with the world afforded by perception. Taking familiar objects and states of affairs as its starting point, the work addresses itself to the general and particular problems of locating the self in relation to the world.  Viewed as a whole it begins to integrate a range not only of scale and structure, but also of significance and status. In their disparate ways of being made – the various routes they take to representation – the works seem to place very different demands on the viewer and the maker; but on inspection and consideration they may offer, if not shared understanding, the possibility of common access.

Nathaniel Robinson began exhibiting with devening projects + editions in 2008; The Sensible Range is his second solo exhibition with the gallery. He received his BA from Amherst College in 2002 and an MFA from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2005. Nathaniel Robinson was born in Rhode Island in 1980, and currently lives in Brewster, NY. In New York, he is represented by Feature, Inc.; Outer Air, his most recent show at the gallery received critical attention from both the New York Times and Art in America magazine. In addition to an extensive exhibition record in the US, Nathaniel Robinson has also shown in Brussels, Leipzig, Dusseldorf and Melbourne.
