Defrosted: a life of Walt Disney

by ADAM CVIJANOVIC and DAVID HUMPHREY

with LEON BENN, INKA ESSENHIGH, DAVID HERBERT, ARTURO HERRERA, EVA and FRANCO MATTES AKA 0100101110101101.org, JOYCE PENSATO, FRANCESCO SIMETI, PAULA WILSON and others.

Adam Cvijanovic and David Humphrey have assembled a biography of Walt Disney in the form of an exhibition. Disney's life will be illustrated by significant moments, selected according to the organizers' warped but studious perspectives. Guest artists will be asked to contribute according to this plot.

Like Disneyland, Defrosted will present a spacialized narrative that retells a story embedded in the popular imagination by means of depicted events: a geography of Walt's life. An equivalent of a Cvijanovic and Humphrey concept album with invited guests, the exhibition will be comprised of paintings on canvas and the wall, drawings, sculpture, video, and installation.

Postmasters Gallery, located in Chelsea 459 West 19th Street (corner of 10th Avenue), is open Tuesday through Saturday to 11 - 6 pm. Please contact Magdalena Sawon at 212-727-3323 with any questions or image requests.
