September 3 - October 4, 2025
Anita Rogers Gallery is pleased to announce ‘against interpretation,’ a solo exhibition of works by Gary Gissler from 2008-2025. The exhibition will be on view September 3 through October 4 at 494 Greenwich Street, Ground Floor in New York City. The gallery will host an opening reception with the artist on Wednesday, September 3, 6-8pm. RSVP here.
Literature and language play a central role in Gissler’s work, both in conceit and in practice. Gissler’s large mixed-media panel works appear to be minimal, abstract paintings (and, in many regards, they are) but are actually constructed from meticulously hand-cut and layered fragments of printed text by artists, thinkers, and writers such as Susan Sontag, Herman Melville, Bob Dylan, and Aldous Huxley. The artist’s process and the resulting works mirror one another; both are journeys of searching, of questioning, and of deep discovery.
