Flatterland5/19/2023 Funkytown is part of series inspired by pop structures that give way to experimentation and unpredictability. The flatness that characterizes Apfelbaum’s installation is less about form than it is about horizontality, a structural flattening of hierarchy that can be found in musical forms such as funk and punk rock. Always situational, Apfelbaum’s intentional arrangements expose the temporal and improvisational currents running through her abstractions. The installation consists of hundreds of crushed synthetic velvet pieces, all hand-cut, dyed, and laid out across the gallery floor. Polly Apfelbaum: Flatterland: Funkytown March 10 – ApOpening Reception: Saturday, March 10th 6-8pm Polly Apfelbaum’s inaugural exhibition at D’Amelio Gallery, Flatterland: Funkytown, is a continuation of the artist’s long exploration of floor based works that oscillate between structure and formlessness.
