p staff david zwirner review

P. Staff's current exhibition at David Zwirner in New York transforms the gallery's Upper East Side townhouse into a haunting, body-centric experience. The show features a new video titled *Penetration* (2025), split across three floors, depicting a person with a laser beamed at their bare stomach, alongside sculptures with wood spikes under latex drapes and ambient sounds of a beating heart. The installation evokes a dread of having a body, with jaundiced yellow window films and disjointed sensory elements creating an uncomfortable, dysphoric atmosphere.

Jan Staller Photographs the Nuts and Bolts of Manhattan's Urban Symphony

Photographer Jan Staller has released a new book titled "Manhattan Project," featuring photographs of construction materials—pipes, beams, rebar, and drill bits—suspended midair against white skies. The book marks a shift from his earlier moody night photography to a hard-edged focus on utilitarian objects, transforming New York City's construction sites into otherworldly, readymade-like visions. The book includes a foreword by Neil deGrasse Tyson and an essay by curator Brett Littman, with images spanning locations across the Upper West Side.

The exhibition features a wide range of mixed-media works—including painting, video, live art, photography, textiles, and sculpture—selected by a diverse panel of neighbors, artists, and curators. Standout pieces include Broken Glass's 'Deforestation (Desmatamento),' a critique of environmental destruction in Brazil; Mamu Umu's 'Capitalist Champion,' exploring the tension between artistic passion and economic survival; Emily Catherine's photorealistic charcoal portrait 'Phuong'; and Aida Wilde's 'BUTCHERED.'
