Kevin Finklea
Kevin, like me, has made objects and paintings and despite appearances has no interest in geometry as a topic or content. The link above is from #Geoform, an online scholarly… Read more Kevin Finklea →
Matta
Doesn’t make any sense to have entries on Eva and Arshille and not #Matta (btw- if you know all 3 of them but not Charles Seliger, check him out.) More
Eva Hesse
Was reading this good article on Sol Lewitt and discovered he wrote to Eva suggesting she try making bad work. More #evahesse
Julije Knifer
Since I’ve written about banal formalist modalities a couple of times recently I figured three times is the trick? Croatian artist Julije Knifer responded to the post-revolutionary socialist aestheticism (asceticism?) of the… Read more Julije Knifer →

Hans Hoffman
Although not new to me, Hans entered my orbit a couple times recently (thanks Pinterest algorithm) so it was time to look a little more and collect some images. Teacher,… Read more Hans Hoffman →
Arden Bendler Browning
In addition to making good work that’s included in a virtual show has some interesting things to say about being a parent and artist during #covid19. More #ardenbendlerbrowning
Secundido Hernandez
Makes some large paintings. As someone who also has an academic background and is interested in an equilibrium between chaos and control, I’m in. More #secundidohernandez
