David Richard Gallery presents curators David Eichholtz and Isaac Aden discussing the exhibition Ed Shostak / Rose Royale “A Queer Perspective From Postminimalism to Social Practice, Selected Works from 1963 – 2020”. This is the gallery’s first major exhibition for the artist Ed Shostak who passed away in April of 2020 from the Covid-19 virus. It is unusual to uncover an artist of his pedigree for which so little is publicly known after establishing himself amidst the visual arts most notable institutions, such as his inclusion in the first 1973 Biennial Exhibit at the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. Shostak cloistered himself in his downtown loft relentlessly working and opting for a less mainstream practice. This exhibition is the first look at many of his late works.
