James Kalm breaks away from his
studio renovation project for an afternoon excursion in Chelsea.
Pedaling down West 24th Street he's beckoned by the glitter of artifacts
in a window. Nick Cave's exhibition "Rescue" is a series of wall and
freestanding assemblages composed of Kitsch, craft and clutter that
overwhelms viewers with their opulence. "Rescue" refers to found dogs,
whose effigies are the basis for these sculptures. While the dogs are
nestled on antique or vintage chairs, rising above are tree-like
armature festooned with ceramic birds, metal flowers and strings of
beads. A spontaneous version of "So What" performed on St. Marks Place
by James and Ben is the musical introduction to this program.
