Anthony Meier Fine Arts: Tony Feher.

Comment by AB: Well, this one's an easy dong pull for the cynics, the centerpiece of Tony Feher's show consisting of a large tabletop littered with litter, described by the explanatory as refuse "culled over many years from Feher's everyday wanderings, in essence creating a quasi-autobiographical portrait of the artist's life. The materials have been carefully edited, combed over, added to, subtracted from, reconfigured." Many years, huh? Carefully edited, huh? It all looks pretty fresh and random to me, which may or may not be the case, but I suppose the trick is you muffle your misgivings in order to revel in the punch line. The good news? It's under $125K. Plus Tucker Nichols is there, and that would seem to speak to the gravity of it all (the dude doesn't show up for just anything).

Also on display are two uniform lines of bottles filled to various levels with colored water, and two compositions of flattened boxes fully coated with glitter. You might call Feher's art "High Ordinary." It is what it is, there's no fancy footwork, and he makes no apologies. Bottom line? I like it.
