Philadelphia artist Jordan Griska’s ambitious solo show, Nowhere Fast —his first since winning the 2008 International Sculpture Center Outstanding Student Award—showcases his ability to turn an understanding of industrial fabrication into seriously high-impact sculpture. Unfortunately, whether due to the particularities of the University Science Center’s Breadboard space—more of a corporate lobby than an art gallery—or attempting to combine older work into a new theme—Griska’s ISC Award-winning Ad Infinitum piece is back—Griska’s show does not live up to the potential the best work suggests he has. Griska’s title, Nowhere Fast , sets a tone just this side of mid-20th century existential angst.

Illustration: John Illingworth Kay Rose Stripe wallpaper design 1906 The decorative work of the English designer John Illingworth Kay is often seen as both expansive and original, with large areas of foliage clustered throughout his work being a particular theme of his style of decoration. However, these examples of wallpaper work produced by him in the first decade of the twentieth century also show the ability of an artist or designer to control, or at least to temper, personal tastes or excesses to those of the larger public taste, or at least to that of their perceived taste. Kay produced these examples for the English influential wallpaper manufacturer Essex & Co.

It's a reasonably quiet weekend in the city as most of the Contact shows come off the walls in prep for whatever's next, but one event I'm hoping to make is the launch of Luis Jacob 's book “Album IV” at Art Metropole. Jacob, a Toronto artist with a burgeoning international reputation (“Album III” showed at Documenta in 2007, to raves) recently had the honour of “Album IV” being acquired by the Guggenheim in New York following its inclusion in its show “Haunted: Contemporary Photography/Video/Performance” (the book was published by Art Met in an edition of 1000 after it was chosen for the exhibition, which runs to September of this year). In any case, it's a de-personlaized scrapbook comprised of found images from books, magazines and wherever else that cobbles together a surprisingly coherent record of a life lived, from birth through infancy and childhood and on to adolescence and adulthood, all underlied with a quiet suggestion of norms, structures and social codes
