Ortega y Gasset Projects is pleased to present Stillness is the Move, an exhibition of recent work by North Carolina-based artists Annie Blazejack and Geddes Levenson in the The Skirt. The exhibition runs from March 23rd - May 12th 2024, with a reception for the artist on Saturday, March 23rd from 6-9pm. Stillness is the Move is curated by OyG Co-Director Clare Britt. 
Long time collaborators Annie Blazejack and Geddes Levenson paint fantastical ecofeminist narratives in Stillness is the Move. Their paintings conjure precarious choreographies between women and wilderness, perilous partnerships that only exist because they are frozen on the surface of the canvas. 
A spooky humor surprises viewers into playful reimaginings of human-nature relationships. Are the subjects in these paintings friend or foe? In harmony or conflict? The raw materials of these stories (a spider, a web, a rock, a snail, a woman, the moon…) combine and recombine. The paintings resist a singular interpretation of what happens next, encouraging spectators to remain open to multiple conflicting narratives. 
Fluorescent colors and crisp lines contrast with mushy grays and muted hues, highlighting the artificial stillness of the scenes. A stone skipper stands frozen mid-throw for so long that a spider builds its web in the crook of her arm. These paintings delight in their own immobility, poking fun at their ‘timeless’ medium, while also contemplating the relative longevity of a skipped stone, a spider’s web, a sunrise, a lifetime, and a rock’s lifetime.
Artist’s BioGeddes Levenson and Annie Blazejack both grew up in Miami, FL. Their collaborative art practice grew organically from their childhood friendship. In 2013, while attending separate graduate schools, they formalized this collaboration and have been creating and showing work exclusively as a duo ever since. In their paintings and installations, they explore the relationship between humans and ecosystems as climate change becomes increasingly inevitable. Blazejack received her MFA from The School of the Museum of Fine arts, Boston/ Tufts University in 2013, and Levenson received her MFA from Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, NY in 2014. Notably, Blazejack and Levenson have installed solo shows at Lump Projects, Raleigh NC; Anchorlight, Raleigh, NC; The Carrack, Durham, NC; The Art and Culture Center, Hollywood, FL; Placeholder Gallery, Miami, FL; and The White Page Gallery, Minneapolis, MN. They have also shown at The National Liberty Museum, Philadelphia, PA; The Contemporary Art Museum, Raleigh, NC; Locust Projects, Miami, FL; and Norte Maar Art Space, Brooklyn, NY.

It came on September 19, 2017. The Metropolitan Museum is one of the most important museums in the world. With the influence of American imperialism, through the clever capture, the collection of cultural relics and artworks from all civilizations around the world is mostly representative cultural relics of various civilizations. I believe every visitor will feel mixed here. The entire museum is classified according to different civilizations on all continents, because the history of the collection is known to everyone, so the exhibition is very simple and rude, that is, put a civilized thing in a place, there is no good narrative, it is completely a &quot;trophy&quot; display. There are a lot of collections here, if you want to look good, it takes a day or two. The museum is right next to Central Park, and two places can also be arranged to visit in a day, half a day in the park, half a day in the museum.

The representative of New York, the United States, there are two lines to go, we are on the ferry, and there are speedboats to sit, but this is the most cost-effective. I went at two o&#39;clock in the afternoon. There were not many people. It was just right to come back. If I went in the morning, there were more tour groups and the queue was very long.

There were many tourists on the first day of the new year, but there were not many people in China, and the waiting time was reasonable. . .
The wind on the roof was too strong. The 80th floor was indoors, and there was reflection when taking pictures. You can go up to the 86th floor to take pictures outdoors, and you can overlook the whole New York.

The Museum of Modern Art in New York is full of creativity and modernity. The artworks in the museum span multiple fields, from Picasso to Andy Warhol, and each piece of work can inspire thinking. The exhibition is rich in content and the space is beautifully designed, which is very suitable for art lovers and cultural tourists.
