The urban landscape is designed within the perfectly manufactured surfaces of these paintings. |

Joyful explorations of raw paint (detail of the above) |
Many of the paintings on a small scale, smaller than how I remember her work before -- but somehow the reduction adds to their chromatic range - transparency has to do a lot more work, and does so. |
Perhaps an influence as well - the great Helen Frankenthaler, whose contribution to painting will continue to magnify with time. |
Annabeth Rosen's debut exhibition Tie Me To The Mast, at PPOW - pure exultation in process, texture, echoing images. Gallery Link |
Strange, prehistoric, textural monuments. Loved the surfaces most of all, from an accomplished ceramicist working steadfastly for years. |
At DC Moore, Robert Kushner, working in an airy vein in Portraits & Perrenials: Gallery Link |
Many collages, on odd surfaces such as mementos from Asia and old newspaper photographs |
My favorite. |
Kushner installation. |

Gallery Link Katerina Grosse at Gagosian, last day. |
Strange and wild paintings - sprayed, chromatic. The color was hard to take without breaks for neutrals, which her dimensional work would automatically supply. |
Beautiful flows of material |
and strange breaks of space. |
David Humphrey at Fredericks & Freiser in I'm Glad We Had This Conversation. Gallery Link Light, airy, sensitive relationships established throughout the show, rewarding movement. |
Print moves, hand-made. |
Colliding with alternative applications. |
Conversing. Making Sense. |
Details like this are lovable. |
As are color zones that make alternative spaces and figures possible. |
Relating again to the sculpture and base, orange to orange. |

The small, shaped canvas rotate outward, pushing the imagery into space. |
More recessive, shell-like imagery as well - on a much larger scale, paradoxically. |

Flowerscapes by LC Armstrong at Marlborough: Signals at Sunset. Gallery Link |
These are fully painted paintings, no blank canvas exposed. The internal light comes from glazing and color. |
Figures from the artist's life or archetypical pairings populate these fictive terrains, in which flowers become giant witnesses. |
Birds and barbed wire, from 2017, a beautiful painting with the sweet cat lower left. |
