White Flag Projects is pleased to present Mockup, a one-person exhibition by Daniel Lefcourt. Mockup is a storage room, a stage set, a mausoleum, a trade show, a diagram, a game board, a studio, a retail store, a pictograph, a classroom, a museum display, an architectural model, and a sign-maker’s workshop. Like composite wood—the material from which the artworks are made—each object is at once real and solid, and simultaneously a mere semblance or substitute.
Daniel Lefcourt’s recent one-person exhibitions have been held with Taxter & Spengemann, New York; Sutton Lane, London; Luis Campaña Galerie, Berlin; and Mitterand & Sanz, Zurich. His work has been included in numerous group exhibitions including Blind Cut, Marlborough Gallery, New York; Knight’s Move, SculptureCenter, Long Island City; The Perpetual Dialogue, Andrea Rosen, New York; Subject Index, Malmo KonstMuseum, Malmo, Sweden; Do You Like Stuff?, The Swiss Institute, New York; and Greater New York, MoMA P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center, Long Island City. Daniel Lefcourt earned his BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design in 1997, and his MFA Columbia University in 2005. He lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.
White Flag Projects is a not-for-profit arts institution established in 2006 to facilitate meaningful exhibitions by international, national, and local artists. White Flag Projects exhibitions are supported by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, and by generous contributions from individuals and corporations.
This exhibition has been made possible with additional support from Emily Rauh Pulitzer.
