Last Saturday, I got to go to the opening of Dan Perjovschi’s first solo show at Lombard-Freid projects in Chelsea with a few friends per their suggestion.

"Known for his incisive social and political commentaries translated in the medium of drawing, Perjovschi’s work has been included for the past decade in numerous biennials and major museum exhibitions around the world. Using humor and irony as a form of poetic conceptualism, Perjovschi reflects on macro-political events with a sensibility that is as finely tuned as it is pointed.

A man stands in front of an ATM machine, his finger pointing towards the keypad, his head turned around facing the surveillance camera behind him asking: You remember my pin?

It is precisely this kind of witticism that allows Perjovschi to address tough issues, frequently of political import, while managing to leave us with a smile on our faces. Whether commenting on the return of the Big Brother or the impact of the 21st century technological revolution and its effects on our lives, Perjovschi resurrects a banal moment of daily routine to a question mark open to different answers."

The exhibition is open till February 22nd. Stop by if you are around the Gallery District in West Chelsea.
