Thick and Thin in Chelsea

Dana Schutz - a centerpiece painting at Petzel 


Detail, reminiscent in some ways of Malcom Morley, though smoother facture. 

Piano in the Rain - staccato beats of mark and melody.

A beautiful show curated by Barbara Takenaga at DC Moore:
l to r: Carrie Moyer, Jane South, Sarah Walker

Tom Burkhardt at DC Moore

Burkardt, closeup (paint on molded plastic)

Jutta Koether at Bortolami - the floor is gravel, in the deeper tones of the paintings

Koetter, detail

Chuck Webster at Ziehersmith - a little gem of a painting

Webster, side view--lots of prep with paint sliding to the finish

Lots of Dunham in this show, thick version

Muller detail - flying figures, green faces, halos, rainbows!
