Paul Kasmin Gallery is pleased to announce the forthcoming exhibition, Impasse Ronsin, which will be on view at 515 West 27th Street from October 28th - January 14th, 2017. Taking as its focus the historic Parisian alley once home to the studios of Constantin Brancusi, William N. Copley, Max Ernst, Yves Klein, Les Lalanne, Larry Rivers, Niki de Saint Phalle, Jean Tinguely and numerous other seminal 20th-century artists, the exhibition will include work by these artists in an elaborate installation designed to embody the collaborative atmosphere of the Impasse Ronsin. At the heart of the original Impasse Ronsin complex, as well as in this exhibition, stands Constantin Brancusi, who moved into the Impasse in 1916 and would remain there until his death in 1957. During those forty-one years, countless seminal artists made the pilgrimage to the Impasse Ronsin in hopes of meeting the artist, whom Marcel Duchamp famously referred to as "The Queen Mother of the Impasse Ronsin". The exhibition will feature a bronze edition of Princess X, one of Brancusi's most iconic forms, as well as a selection of the artist's vintage photographs depicting the studio and its contents. Brancusi's studio as it was arranged at the time of his death was later meticulously reconstructed opposite the Centre Pompidou in Paris, where it has been open to the public since 1997. From the 1930s through the 1950s, the Impasse Ronsin was an area closely associated with Dada and Surrealism. While neither had permanent studios in the Impasse, both Man Ray and Marcel Duchamp were fixtures at the complex. Included in the exhibition is a vintage photograph of Brancusi and his dogs taken at the Impasse by Man Ray, as well as an original set of Duchamp's "Rotoreliefs" and his film Anemic Cinema, 1926, in which they were used. -- from Press release.
