Subdivision: Sunshine Acres, 2006 by Ross Racine

ARTJAIL (an NYC gallery space and visual effects boutique) is now exhibiting a new group show curated by David Gibson (Article Projects), titled Lost Horizon. Gibson writes of the show on his website:

“Lost Horizon” represents a critique of themes related to the professional practice and socialized ideal of architecture, its enveloping culture of construction, and the ironic ideals that emerge from assumptions of progress. Any context related to architecture is also related to urbanism or to the iconic status of buildings as well as to the transient nature of city living. The city is a landscape in a state of constant flux, first in terms of outward appearance or beauty, second in the power systems supported by these appearances, and third by the sense of space that is transmuted by the interaction of so many disparate forms of expression.

Ross Racine's stunning digital drawings, depicting aerial views of fictive suburban communities (one of which was featured in Land Use Survey this past summer at JBG) is included in Lost Horizon, among many other terrific pieces. (A complete list of participating artists—and more images—is available here).

If you're on the LES before November 13th, make sure you pay Lost Horizon a visit.
