If Martin Kippenberger had been born a woman, he almost surely would have made work like Jow, whose ecstatic drawings on hotel letterhead "channel a fictitious Girl Friday drawing on company stationary rather than doing her mundane job." These riveting little drawings — and companion video piece — on view at Marine Salon are simultaneously riotous and contemplative, elegiac and saucy, sad and darkly witty, punctuated by short surreptitious bits of text like "not if you were the last boy on earth," implying that love is, alas, only a savage little game.

Note:

In conjunction with Salon No. 6, Marine hosts an evening of poetry, short fiction, and art-related essays with Ken Deifik, Sarah Eggers, Peter Frank and Sophie Sills on Wednesday, October 27 (7pm).
