Gina Fischli’s practice is characterised by the playful employment of a multitude of different media, including glitter and denim, to explore notions of fantasy, food, materiality and consumption in contemporary society. Cleverly upending notions of scale, fake and real, Fischli sculpts castle-shaped cakes – complete with fondant-like turrets and windows – from polymer clay, as well as large portraits on plywood bejewelled with glitter that depict cocktail glasses and Diet Coke cans. Fischli’s castle cakes are often named after real British and German medieval or neo-Gothic castles, monumental and supposedly haunted buildings, humorously rendered by the artist in saccharine, sugar-frosted technicolour.

Founded in 2013 by Nicole Russo, Chapter NY is committed to supporting artists at various phases in their careers, by providing first solo shows and offering a platform for specific investigations within more established practices. By focusing on solo-presentations and working closely with each artist, Chapter NY helps realize tightly envisioned exhibitions that foster artistic exploration and growth. Russo brings over two decades of gallery experience to actualizing Chapter NY's program, drawing on her longstanding relationships to encourage ambitious presentations. The gallery started as a weekend project space before growing into a full-time operation, first representing artists including Mira Dancy, Willa Nasatir and Adam Gordon. In addition to an expanding gallery roster, Chapter NY has also provided a flexible platform for non-represented artists working across a range of media and experience, such as Keltie Ferris, Jesse Stecklow and Anicka Yi. In doing so, Chapter NY maintains its original mission to present experimental projects beyond the scope of traditional exhibitions. The program includes artists working in site-specific installation, sculpture, ceramics, video, drawing, painting, and photography. Represented artists have recently exhibited at the Whitney Museum of American Art; the Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the New Museum, New York; Tate Britain; the Venice Biennale; and Atlanta Contemporary, Atlanta; among others. ...
