Pedestal @ Nathan Larramendy Gallery
The Nathan Larramendy Gallery is pleased to announce a solo exhibition, Pedestal, new work by Amir H. Fallah. Pedestal is Fallah’s first solo exhibition at the Nathan Larramendy Gallery. The exhibition will feature new works on paper, paintings, and sculpture. The gallery will host anafternoon reception on Saturday, May 3rd, 3 – 5 pm.
Boyhood memory, the intensity of love and relationships, both new and old, are reoccurring themes in the work of Amir H. Fallah. The prickly cactus, alluring yet dangerous, contained and cared for in colorful pots, precariously rests upon naively constructed pedestals which serve as visual metaphors for love and relationships in Fallah’s paintings.
The pedestals and forts dwell unconcealed in landscapes that appear both futuristic and prehistoric with intensely colorful, gradient-laden backgrounds. Each fort or pedestal appears as if it were built by a gang of boys using scrap wood and found materials to construct a secret clubhouse where adolescent crushes are candidly confessed. Cacti and potted plants mingle with all manner of household knick-knacks on the teetering, quickly constructed arrangements, reminding us of the eager need for achievement that we often find ourselves experiencing in relationships. All of the paintings contain a decorative border, quietly ornate, a reference to Iranian Miniature Painting and Fallah’s cultural heritage.
Fallah approaches each sculpture (life size forts and terrariums) and painting spontaneously, working with various materials. In his recent series of paintings, I Put You on a Pedestal, he introduced collage, literally building each pedestal or fort on the canvas, working out the logistics of the construction, both visually and technically, along the way. The result is a candid expression of Fallah’s process.

I've Uploaded a video of construction process of my latest fort installation in Dubai. Enjoy!

UPCOMING SHOW:
“SOME PAINTINGS”
THE THIRD (2007) LA WEEKLY ANNUAL BIENNIAL
CURATED BY DOUG HARVEY
JANUARY 12–FEBRUARY 16, 2008
Opening reception on Saturday, January 12 from 7 PM to 11 PM
Track 16 Gallery is proud to present “Some Paintings,” the third (2007) LA Weekly Annual Biennial, curated by Doug Harvey. Featuring the work of over 70 living Los Angeles painters, the exhibition is a long-overdue large-scale celebration of LA’s vital and ongoing exploration of the longest-lasting, most constantly reinvented medium in the fine arts. The show runs from January 12 through February 16, 2008, with an opening reception on Saturday, January 12 from 7 PM to 11 PM with refreshments and performances by The Spirit Girls, Wounded Lion, John Kilduff of Let’s Paint TV, and others.
The exact list of participating artists will not be officially revealed until the joint opening / publication of the annual LA Weekly Art Issue, but “Some Paintings” will include works by the famous and the unknown, and range from pure abstraction to photorealism, and include available works from many of LA’s most cherished masters and hottest emerging talents. None of the work in “Some Paintings” has been previously exhibited in Los Angeles, and most of it will be barely dry. While not claiming to be exhaustive, or even comprehensive, “Some Paintings” is an idiosyncratically
personal and optimistic love letter spelling out the potential inherent in the world’s third-oldest profession and how it is currently manifesting itself in our city.
