A reprise of Charles Baudelaire’s 1857 poetry collection, Les Fleurs du Mal, at 192 Books, located at 192 Tenth Avenue at West 21st Street in Manhattan.

Through recasting and framing, as well as placement in the gallery space, the found objects are re-contextualized. Levine has said: “I don’t think it’s useful to see dominant culture as monolithic.  I’d rather see it as polyphonic, with unconscious voices which may be at odds with one another. If I am attentive to these voices, then maybe I can collaborate with some of them to create something almost new.”

Paula Cooper at 465 will open with an exhibition of works by Sherrie Levine. The exhibition will include two new bronze sculpture groups cast from found objects, entitled The Three Muses and The Three Furies. Also on view is a bronze cast of a steer skull from 2002 and a suite of twenty-four found postcards from 2000.
