Tibi Tibi Neuspiel is one of a number of local artists included in the first exhibition at Manny Neubacher's promising new gallery in Toronto's west end, Neubacher Shor Contemporary (NSC).
In this excerpt from episode 9 of Late Night In The Bedroom, a sometimes-hilarious online serial filmed in Toronto and modeled on the late night television format, Neuspiel explains his art, production processes, and materials. His Pop-conceptualism works take smart jabbing strikes at our shared understanding of North American mass culture and identity. This short clip offers a quick and entertaining introduction to this young, original artist, one of the most interesting in Toronto.
After the jump, you can see Neuspiel's piece "History is under attack because it upsets us more than the pain of new problems", a large wall work on display in the current introductory group show at NSC.
