Kevin Brine Kevin Brine is currently working on an elaborate multi-media project devoted to the theme of the Jewish biblical heroine Judith. The 2008 Sword of Judith Project is conducted by the artist in collaboration with over twenty-five scholars in the United States and Europe. The collaboration has been supported generously by the New York Public Library and ARTstor, Inc. There will be over twenty-five separate research projects on the Judith theme in 2008, with research conducted at libraries, museums, and art sites all over the world. The New York Public Library is hosting a proprietary Judith website for the purposes of engendering collaboration between and amongst participating scholars and will be the location of the multidisciplinary conference The Sword of Judith scheduled for April 17-18, 2008. During the two day conference, curators and librarians at The New York Library, The Frick Museum, The Morgan Library and the Metropolitan Museum of Art will host curatorial visits to their collections and present their holdings related to the iconography of Judith. Estate of Frederick Kiesler (1890-1965) On April 17, The Drawing Center, New York will open their exhibition "Frederick Kiesler: Co-Realities," which is curated by Dieter Bogner and João Ribas and co-organized by The Drawing Center, New York and the Austrian Frederick and Lillian Kiesler Private Foundation, Vienna Information on Drawing Center web site In the next month, the casting of Frederick Kiesler’s masterpiece “Bucephalus”, begun by Jason McCoy Inc. in 2006, will be completed. We are honored to have had Kiesler’s longtime studio assistant, Len Pitkowsky, assist us with the process. In the mid-1960s, Kiesler created the large-scale sculpture with the help of Len Pitkowsky. The original model, which spans over 27 x 9 x 14 feet, was conceived in cement, plaster and wire, with an intention to be cast in aluminum later on. Inspired by the most famous horse of antiquity that accompanied Alexander the Great to battle, “Bucephalus” might be one of the earliest environmental sculptures as it entails a grotto for meditation, as well as a multi-media and sound installation.
